Starting a Business in 2023: Key Steps and Strategies

To start a successful business in 2023, follow these key steps and strategies. First, identify your niche by determining who you want to serve and what problems they need help with. Next, focus on getting results for five clients and collecting testimonials to build credibility. Simultaneously, create a platform through podcasts or YouTube to attract an audience and distribute valuable content. After securing your first five results and testimonials, launch a beta program, live or automated, focusing on a low-ticket high-volume or high-ticket low-volume model. Rinse and repeat this launch process consistently to build momentum. Consider hiring a virtual assistant to delegate tasks and support your business growth. Refine your offer and sales system, constantly analyzing and improving metrics. Finally, expand into immersive experiences like retreats or workshops to offer an in-person element to your business. Stay strategic and data-driven throughout your entrepreneurial journey.

These are some of the most common questions I get from a lot of newer entrepreneurs who are just getting started, which is why I wanted to answer them today on the podcast!
