Taking 100% Responsibility in Your Business
Welcome back! Today I am talking about taking 100% responsibility in your business! Over the past 20 years as an entrepreneur, I've noticed that business owners like to place blame on everyone but themselves for the results they've been creating. People they've hired, lack of time, bad management, etc. It's so much easier to point the finger than to look in the mirror sometimes am I right? I am going to teach you some strategies on how you can take full responsibility and control of the results you are getting. Instead of thinking "this is out of my control, this is not my fault", I want you to start thinking: "What could I have done to prevent this from happening?" When you say things like "There was nothing I could have done!" it will slow down your growth!! A lot of times, there's a million things you could do to ensure a better result and we're going to dive into them today! Enjoy! Did you love today’s episode? 1.

A must have skillset every person on your team needs.
Welcome back to the Well Oiled Operations podcast! Today we're talking about a must have skillset every person on your team needs. This skill is simply getting what you want, otherwise known as: sales. A lot of business owners tell me they feel funny about selling but selling should never be a negative thing, if you believe in your offer, your company, your team, you should WANT to sell. Today I am going to cover: Why it is important for every team member to be a sales person How each position takes on a sales role and how it moves the needle forward Benefits of having a sales forward mindset and not being afraid to sell How a sales skillset can help to bring in new employees and retain your current ones Combating buyers remorse with salespeople in your fulfillment department If you’re not scaling as quickly as you’d like, it's probably because you haven't learned how to implement sales skills within your team. It's common for business owners to think they don't have to learn sales, they could just hire someone to sell. But learning this skill is an absolute must in order to scale your business.

Overcoming Anxiety as a Business Owner with Dr. Robyn Graham
Welcome back to the Well-Oiled Operations Podcast! Today I am talking with Dr. Robyn Graham and we are discussing a topic that I'm sure you are all familiar with in some shape or form and that is anxiety. Robyn has written a book called "You, Me and Anxiety: Take Action Over Anxiety to Enjoy Being You" and woah, just that title alone should have you hooked, I know I was! Being in the world of small business, we know that it is an ever changing world. There is no consistency as an entrepreneur, things move and they move FAST and how do most people react when they are out of control? Their anxiety takes over. Business owners are constantly looking at their numbers, watching their money either grow or dip, trying to keep up with the algorithm and interests of their buyers, its exhausting and it can lead to burn out. I am so happy to have Robyn join me today to discuss things like: What even IS anxiety? How does it manifest and how can we overcome? Robyn's own personal anxiety journey and how she learned to navigate it Anxiety that comes with MORE money Failure anxiety and moving forward Using the journaling method Catching negative thoughts and challenging them Anxiety shows itself in many different ways as a small business owner. There are so many unknowns, and our businesses can be fragile. As business owners, we reflect how our business is feeling. We want to train you to do business less stressed and separate yourself from the numbers in order to take care of YOU! I'm so excited for you to hear this episode, I hope you enjoy!
