The Kelly Roach Show

"In all things, give thanks." The above is a phrase I have written on a sign in my office. It reminds me everyday that we all have a greater purpose and special set of gifts. Today I'm inviting you to give thanks for that god-given gift. I also want to give thank to YOU: the listeners of the show. Without you, this could not be possible. I thank you from everyone on my team, and we would love to hear from you! Drop us a line on iTunes so we can thank you for your love and support. (5:47) "Sometimes we get caught up just in the cycle of treading water, keeping our heads above water. Walking through the quicksand of life and we forget our mission! We forget to give thanks for those unique talents, those unique gifts that were given that are ours." (7:45) "I want you to rediscover and give thanks. Look up to the sky raise your hands up and say 'Thank you! Thank you for my gift. Thank you for my unique purpose, thank you for the freedom to pursue my mission that is unique to me and me alone.'" (13:25) "Remember that you are unique. You were put here with a plan and purpose. It's your job to live that out and discover what that is and make the work of your life your life's work; being the best you can be, with what you have been given."

Over the past few years, the business space has made a few shifts. Everyone has moved online or has moved into some type of online platform. Our branding, image, and photography have become CRUCIAL -- and is a key player in how our audience relates to us. In this episode we are talking to photographer (and client!) Mike Lloyd. Mike shares that it's about finding the right photographer for not only you but your brand. If you want your brand to be represented in a powerful way that breaks through the white noise of the online space, having great images is key. A great photographer can help you do so. You can see Mike's work on my instagram account (@kellyroach13) but be sure to head to Mike's account directly to see the full scope of his work (@mikelloydphoto). (4:02) "The photography is the visual representation of your business philosophy, your values, the message you are trying to get across so there needs to be a consistent theme. A lot of my work is very colorful, very epic, cinematic but if that's not your brand then maybe i'm not the best photographer for you. So it needs to be on par with what you are doing."--Mike Lloyd (10:48) "I would first consider the difference between an expense and an investment. Expense is something you are going to spend that you will never see again. Investment is something you put money in that will come back to you and in theory you will end up with more money than you had before the investment. If you do this right, your new photography will be an investment because it represents your brand, and it captures the attention of your potential clients"--Mike Lloyd (14:27) "There are so many things you can say with it (photography) to elicit different emotions from your clients. So can be very forward facing in the camera, making eye contact with the viewer and that is going to help initially gain interaction with them because you are making eye contact, makes them want to read what else you have going on"--Mike Lloyd Connect with Mike: http://mikelloydphoto.com https://www.facebook.com/mikelloydphotography/ https://www.instagram.com/mikelloydphoto/ For more business tips and strategies, follow along with Kelly: Join the Tribe of Unstoppables on FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2080754075505322/ Website: https://kellyroachcoaching.com Instagrams: UE Revolution: https://www.instagram.com/uerevolution/ UE Marketing Mastery: https://www.instagram.com/uemarketingmastery/ Kelly Roach: https://www.instagram.com/kellyroachofficial Twitter: https://twitter.com/kellyroachlive

We grew up in a complicated world where we were told failure was not an option. Whatever we learned in school, we would just memorize it and then regurgitate it back out on paper. If we failed to do that? We were hit with that terrorizing letter "F". In today's episode I want to reverse the negative mindset we have around taking risks and possibly failing. What we need to do is look at risk as a chance for teachable moments -- it's just as important to know what doesn't work as well as what does. Knowledge of both will help you to move forward in achieving your goals. (3:18) "There is a reason why we have this aversion to risk. It's because we grew up in a certain in a society where we take a test and we are expected to regurgitate back a specific set of information and if we don't do that in the exact form or in the right composition….that we fail." (6:24) "You've be taught for many many many years of your life how bad it was to do so [fail]. It's natural for all us to not want to fail and that feeling of not wanting to fail is our protection is our coping mechanism. It's natural and you have been programmed that way" (9:08) "For me, I have learned over and over again that it is only through exposing yourself to risk that you can truly make those big leaps forward. It's only in trying something big and really going for it that you are going to accomplish greatness."

Day 1 of the gratitude challenge starts now! Give me a show of hands: how many people have tried meditation? Maybe some have, but I'm sure many of you haven't. But I want to challenge you to try something out of your comfort zone. It only takes 2 minutes, so you can do it right when you wake up in the morning and right when you fall asleep at night. Sit there and think of all the things you are grateful for. Take that moment and really reflex. It's the little things in life we forget to acknowledge and be GRATEFUL for. Take the time and never forget what you have :) (5:28) "When you look at the problems you are facing all day, everyday. It is probably at the end of the day a blessing that you are facing those challenges because if those challenges did not exist you most likely would not be needed in the equation" (8:53) "When you begin your day with reflection and giving thanks for those things you become an unstoppable warrior. We talk about this show, we call you guys our unstoppable army because you are people who believe so deeply in the vision you have for your future that you let no obstacle, no challenge, no set back, no failure stand in your way of you pursuing your success" (10:35) "When you are suffering, when you are going through these trials and tribulations, being thankful for those things is incredibly important because those are the critical redirects in your life from which the biggest and most important positive life changes will come from" For more business tips and strategies, follow along with Kelly: Join the Tribe of Unstoppables on FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2080754075505322/ Website: https://kellyroachcoaching.com Instagrams: UE Revolution: https://www.instagram.com/uerevolution/ UE Marketing Mastery: https://www.instagram.com/uemarketingmastery/ Kelly Roach: https://www.instagram.com/kellyroachofficial Twitter: https://twitter.com/kellyroachlive

What's the first thing you think of when you think of Pinterest? Probably weddings and different ways to make your favorite desserts. But have you ever thought about using Pinterest to gain exposure your business? In today's episode, we are talking to social media strategist, Pinterest expert, and CEO of White Glove Social Media: Anna Bennett. People don't always think of Pinterest as the 'the platform' but Anna is sharing with us why it can actually be the GO TO social media site. For the female millennial group this is a growing platform, and one other businesses need to pay attention to. By combining strategy, visually appealing photographs, and incorporating your blog--you will not only master the world of Pinterest but grow your business at the same time. (3:05) "Biggest benefit is that Pinterest can really help your business rank on the first page of Google, under your most important keywords. We all know that keywords is something that we often type into google." (13:00) "You need to be following pinners or boards, pinning your own stuff and re-pinning other peoples content. Sharing your pins on other social media platforms, i'm thinking Facebook or Twitter, if your audience is there. You need to re-pin trending topics, because Pinterest users are trend seekers." (16:20) "That content needs to be actionable. Why is that important? Because that is what people do on Pinterest, they look at the image and they ask themselves, 'ok how can I take action on this image so I can improve my life, solve a problem or plan an important occasion."

What came first...the chicken or the egg? It's the question every entrepreneur faces: getting help to grow the business OR build the business and get help as the business grows. Getting help at home is one strategy that can give you time back in the day to focus on your business' growth -- and remove some of the stress around a pile of undone 'tasks.' It can be laundry, shopping, cleaning... it doesn't matter what you need help with. There are people who can help you out by getting it done. We are sharing 3 simple ways you can strategically make the changes to getting the help you need while still working your dream job! (5:10) "There is no excuse to not get help at home. Anyway you slice or dice the equation it's going to improve your relationship, it's going to lower your stress level, and you're going to make more money in your business." (7:28) "A lot of times guys we think we are making the safe, risk-free decision. When we make decisions based fear, when we make decisions based on scarcity, it's almost never the right one. It always backfires and hurts us even more." (9:01) "My message to you today is believe in yourself, be smart, be strategic, and do the exercise. Figure out how many hours of help you could hire for just an extra one single client you could bring on to work with personally. Go out and get that help and then redirect that time into doing more profit producing activities."

What is the fastest way to grow your business and gain success? Hiring a winning team! The people you surround yourself with determine the level of success your company is going to achieve. Getting help in your business at all levels is the most important jobs you have as the CEO of your company. In many situations, however, the employees or contractors that are hired are actually costing you money instead of earning it for you. It's giving hiring in the small business world a bad name. It's the dilemma ALL business owners have. How do we grow fast enough to afford to get help... but how do we make sure that help is making us money and not costing us money? We are breaking down 5 steps on how to transform your team from an expense to an investment! (3:20) "Hiring is very similar to dating. A lot of times what you see on the first date is not what you get 3 months, 6 months, a year later. The very same goes with the hiring process. Which means that, when you are thinking about going through the hiring process and building a winning team for yourself, go into the mindset understanding you will probably go through 3 or even 4 people before you find the 'one'. " (7:15) "When you are assigning the task to the individuals that work for you, that are being brought on to help you in any area of the business, be very clear and specific about exactly how much time you want allocated to those tasks. Be very very clear." (11:37) "Mindset is the number one thing. I always say it: mindset comes before mechanics. You can send someone off firing and doing tactical tasks, from day one hour one. But if they don't understand the connection to the result they are trying to get, you are not going to be happy with their performance."

Sometimes work can feel like a hamster wheel. We go round and round just working to get to retirement without even thinking about the future. This is why earning passive income is so attractive to many people. Specifically, through real estate. In today's episode, we are talking to entrepreneur and expert real estate investor Lane Kawaoka. He is the co-owner of MPFE Investments and host of the real estate podcast Simple Passive Cash Flow Fund. With over 260+ multi family units, he understands how beneficial real estate investing can be for continuous income. Lane explains that while many people are scared of the market because of the 2008 crash, it's a different market that he recommends investing in. (8:43) "Educate yourself. Podcasts are great way. Read a few books… don't read too many books, you guys are business owners, like you are killing it. Don't spend all your time doing this. I would suggest getting a mentor."--Lane Kawaoka (10:18) "People look at the numbers, but they don't think of them as shades of grey. They think by numbers. They like by highest rent to value ratio, which you can get...But there is a reason a property is priced so low. You have to look at the area it is in."--Lane Kawaoka (16:07) "I think there is just a lot of bad information out there. I mean, I'm not a fan of the whole flipping thing and this BRRR strategy where you buy, rent, rehab and refinance the deal...I think a lot of people get scared of the real estate market from 2008."--Lane Kawaoka Connect with Lane: Website: www.simplepassivecashflow.com LinkedIn: in/lane-kawaoka-pe-81b875a Twitter: @SimplepassiveCF For more business tips and strategies, follow along with Kelly: Join the Tribe of Unstoppables on FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2080754075505322/ Website: https://kellyroachcoaching.com Instagrams: UE Revolution: https://www.instagram.com/uerevolution/ UE Marketing Mastery: https://www.instagram.com/uemarketingmastery/ Kelly Roach: https://www.instagram.com/kellyroachofficial Twitter: https://twitter.com/kellyroachlive
