The Kelly Roach Show

We hear of career changes all the time. Ellen Degeneres was a paralegal before she was a daytime talk show host. Julia Child was a spy for the CIA before she became a culinary genius. We all have our reasons to leave one profession for another. Our guest Annie Spano's reason to leave was a more personal reason. Annie hopped from job to job, moving from high school math teacher to a project coordinator in a big corporate business. However, as she started to grow in the position and in her education, she started recognizing a 'work bully' situation in the office. She then left and created 'Style Collective', a community to collaborate and empower other women to grow their fashion blogs. Annie connects with people through sharing this story, a story of learning from a personal hardship and growing from the experience. (8:40) "Your past doesn't define who you are. You can write your own story, you can start over. I have started over many times. This is my third career now, and I am in my early thirties -- and you know the 'work bully'. If had listened to everything that she had told me and let that bug in my ear bring me down, I wouldn't be able to do what I do today." --Annie Spano (12:40) "I wanted so bad to be a leader in the position I was working in and I was not able to do that. My love for leadership and inspiring others and empowering them, showing them my hustle so they hustle. It empowers them and inspires them to help other woman in the community" --Annie Spano (14:56) "Post constantly, being engaging, providing helpful content, celebrating our members on social media and on our website and on our emails and being inspirational. Really showing that as an organization we care about our members"-- Annie Spano Connect with Annie: http://www.anniespano.com Twitter:@annie_spano Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/amspano/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/annie_spano/ 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 talk on this show all the time about creating the foundation for a winning team. Today, I want to pull back the curtain and take you back to before some of my own employees were a part of my team… to when they were interns! Some of my best full time hires have come from internships. Having an internship program in your business is so important because you can: Pre-evaluate your hires and Do so in an affordable way where you can remove some of the tactical work for your plate while helping your interns gain invaluable career and business experience When you are growing in any organization, people are everything. Those who wait too long to hire are the ones that struggle immensely building their business and becoming a leader. (3:15) "Bottom line here is there is no better way to find amazing employees that learn fast, pick up at rocket speed, are energetic, excited and are going to give a boost to your small business than through bringing on interns." (6:47) "It's to their benefit here because you can teach them unbelievable skills that they will use to earn a higher paying job upon graduation and to get better opportunities for themselves when they complete their education." (12:40) " It's incredibly important to take great care of your interns, make it an amazing learning experience for them. Make it fun, make it valuable. Meet with them in person, take time to mentor them. Make it a relationship so that when that internship ends, you have someone out there who is an ambassador and an advocate for your company."

It's time to break free from the chaos! In this episode we are talking to Scott Beebe, CEO of My Business on Purpose, a company based on the mindset that business is created with purpose. Ask yourself this: what is your vision or snapshot of your business? Many entrepreneurs will say they don't know, which is their first mistake. Having the vision and developing effective leadership skills are two of the most important principles of becoming an entrepreneur. We need to be asking the questions that aren't the strategies, what works today won't necessarily work tomorrow but the principles. (3:01) "One of the reasons you are grateful for your team because they are probably very focused on a vision that you have set forward"--Scott Beebe (9:50) "Write down your vision so those who may read it will run because when you write down the duration… What it does is it forces people to run towards your vision or run away from your vision"--Scott Beebe (17:11) "Be descriptive, be intentional about what you see. Remember, this is your vision and vision compells, vision draws, vision pushes away, vision attracts, and it divides. The more clarity you put in your vision the more clarity you give them." -- Scott Beebe Connect with Scott: Website: www.mybusinessonpurpose.com Facebook:mybusinessonpurpose LinkedIn: scottebeebe Twitter: scottbeebe 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

"Sometimes the simplest solution is often the best one" I said it once and I'll say it again, simplicity is KEY. This year I found myself trapped using a complicated approach to sales and success then necessary. So I railed it back, and implemented a strategy I haven't used in a while-- 30 minute strategy sessions. It's simple, straightforward, and the easiest way to get prospects on your calendar Sometimes we get so caught up in the business and the work, that we forget what's right in front of us. For us that was the strategy sessions. We were so focused on trying to find other ways to utilize OTHER strategies, we left this one behind. Sometimes we need to go back to the basics, rework some things, and try it in a new way. Strategy sessions are just one of the many ways you can get quality leads on your calendar ready to buy---listen to the rest of the episode for more! (1:03) "Sometimes you put so much time and energy into audimation and level 2 and level 3 strategies that you are trying to employ but you forget about the simple solutions right in front of your face" (4:25) "Your busy being busy and doing the work you miss the things that are right in front of you. We never stopped focusing on that strategy because it didn't work, we were just looking for more leveraged techniques to gain sales" (14:45) "Remember, where there is a will there is ALWAYS a way and there is absolutely no harm that can be done in having more conversations between your company and your target market with qualified leads who want to learn how you can help them" 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

"Your life can change in an instant" Tony Robbins said this over and over again for the past 15 years. In all honesty, I didn't understand it the first few times. The key heartbeat in your business is the ability to implement strong strategies, put in the work and be mentally present… which means you've got to be operating at your peak. This year, I hired a personal trainer to get back into shape and improve my health. In that instant, I've changed my life (more on that in the episode). Have YOU invested in your own health and wellness? The energy required to grow a business means you've got to take care of yourself FIRST. Find the means to build up your energy so you can be fully present for yourself, your business, and your family. (3:49) "My fatigue was so bad during the day I didn't even want to get out of bed. I was so exhausted. I was dragging my way through appointment after appointment, struggling my way call after call. I really wasn't happy or present in anything I was doing because I was so tired." (7:18) "We all know our ability to build our wealth is directly tied to our energy level and our energy level is essentially going to determine our ability to achieve all our goals and dreams because you can know the right things to do but without the drive and the spark and the energy to do them...that knowledge doesn't do you any good." (9:15) "The energy I have now working with the trainer, to raise my energy level, my strength, my endurance is priceless. I don't wake up in the morning feeling fatigued anymore. I can hope out of the bed at 6am and BOOM ready to go."

"What line of work are you in?" "What type of product do you sell?" It's the simple questions that many entrepreneurs can't seem to answer. Every single one of us has a different talent, and we need to identify it. In this episode we are talking to speaker, leader and 'idea-junkie', Michael Hudson. Creator of Vision Speaker, Michael helps entrepreneurs and business owners create dynamic presentations to communicate change. It's all about telling your story. We learn from the lessons in our own life, and that is what people connect to. The biggest learning experience comes from the things we don't succeed in. Share this side of you-- this is the part of your business that draws people in. (2:30) "When you keep confusing that message, as Donald Miller says, when you confuse you lose. When you keep confusing that message you're giving yourself, all you give yourself permission to do is to keep floundering."--Michael Hudson (11:58) "That real connection is what opens the door to transformation…..Your goal is to transform people's lives. I can't transform your life if we aren't being 100% honest with one another." --Michael Hudson (16:30) "We think it's all about numbers and numbers matter, but numbers aren't the key drive. The key drive is impact."-- Michael Hudson 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

2018 is basically here, which means we need to get hyper focused-- meeting revenue goals, getting courses and coaches to fill in the gaps, and editing personal schedules to become MORE productive. Personal productivity is the one thing that stands in the way of entrepreneurs reaching their financial goals. Days become over-complicated with a list of objectives that are just simply unproductive. The question we need ask ourselves when we look at the calendar is: does this directly add to the lifestyle I'm trying to create and the income I'm trying to achieve? (3:44) "What is going to be the top big rocks, that are core recurring things on your calendar, every single week. That are tangibility and effectively moving you toward your goal. In a way you can visually see there is a direct correlation in time in and results out." (7:26) "The best thing you can do for yourself at this point this time of year is simplify, go back through, do some weeding. Try to challenge yourself to get rid of a third of the projects and initiatives and tasks you are doing each week. Get the right person doing the right things" (13:28) "I want in encourage each and everyone of you, that if you have been feeling overwhelmed, if you have been feeling like your energy is being dispersed or diluted and you have too much on your plate--it's because there is!"

There is a depiction online of what everyone thinks the "journey to success" looks like versus reality. What most of the depictions don't show, however, is that success is never a straight line. Entrepreneurship (and being successful at it) is full of messes -- and you have to be willing to accept that failures along the way will happen. The stronger you become in accepting them and rolling with the punches, the faster you will grow your business. In the moment, it feels so hard to push through and adapt. But remember this: it takes 10,000 hours to master any skill. When you're in business, you're learning, growing, and developing new skills every single day. Your ability to PIVOT in the face of struggle gives you the ability to problem solve quickly and effectively. (2:30) "You are now presented with a choice: to accept where you are as final, or PIVOT. Pivoting will take you all the way to the top. Pivoting is one of the most important and hardest entrepreneurial skills" (6:20) "The vast majority of people are willing to accept a temporary setback, as a final destination. But you, you my UNSTOPPABLE ARMY, are absolutely not. You are going to pivot your way to success." (9:10) "The journey is not clean... it is not pretty for any of us. But always remember that the obstacles you are facing were put in your path to grow you into the highest and best form of yourself you can be."

When life gives you chocolate chips, why not make cookies? That is exactly what CEO and cancer survivor Loren Brill did. At the age of just 22, Loren was diagnosed with cancer, which turned her world upside down. Loren shares that there are somethings you just can't control, but there are things you can. Getting diagnosed with cancer was something no one could see coming, but her health and nutrition was an escape. She wanted life and empowerment out of what she put into her body. With Loren's sweet tooth leading the way, she created a 'healthy' cookie made with all natural ingredients. Sweet Loren's Cookies was created as a healthy option for people when they need something sweet. (2:10) "I had a lot of time with myself and a lot of time to figure out what i was passionate about and what i really enjoy doing. If life is so precious, what do i really want to spend time doing and what do i really care about…." --Loren Brill (9:40) "We are dealt a certain deck of cards. There are certain things that happen in life that are something unexplainable. It's all of our responsibility, no matter how we were raised, what has happened in our life. What do we want to turn our own life into? What would make us happy?"-- Loren Brill (18:30) "I think you have to find something that really lights you up, that you are passionate about and to me if you combine that with a really clear vision, and fill a hole in the market with a smart business plan behind it, How can you not win?"--Loren Brill The secret to life is finding that passion that gets you out of bed in the morning. Turn that hobby into something that will change not only your life, but the lives of everyone around you.
