Curious about making the switch?

There are so many great things about being the face of my business, but I’ll be honest -- I don’t really see myself doing TikTok and Instagram reels when I’m 90 years old. It would be so nice (at some point way down the line) to transition from the personal brand I have today, to one where my name, face, and likeness are not associated with it. But how do you do that gracefully?

That’s the topic I’m exploring today with my guest Clint Salter. Clint is an award-winning entrepreneur and best-selling author who’s on a mission to revolutionize the dance industry. Over the past 21 years, he’s created and sold five companies, from the dance studio he started at age 16 to the largest coaching membership for dance studio owners globally.He’s a brilliant business owner and also has firsthand experience going from a personal brand to a company brand. In this episode, Clint shares:  The 5 specific steps he took to switch from a personal to a company brand The biggest challenges he’s faced from the transition, plus lessons he learned How he seamlessly integrated coaching into his company brand The mindset he embraced that allowed him to build businesses bigger than him This was such an insightful conversation, so if you’ve ever considered what it would be like to make the switch in your business like I have, be sure to tune in! Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts"I love Amy and Online Marketing Made Easy." <-- If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing my show!

How to slow down in your business (& feel totally ok with it)When I launched Two Weeks Notice, I took advantage of every opportunity that I could to promote the book, and get it into the hands of women who need it. That meant doing over 100 podcast interviews, flying all over the country for media promotions, and sacrificing a lot of things in my personal life so I could do more in my business. I was very much in a season of yes.Everything I committed to, I showed up for in full force -- and I’ll tell ya, it was well worth it. Two Weeks Notice made the NYT bestseller list and even topped the list in the Wall Street Journal, too. But I’ll be honest with you. Now that my book launch is over with, I’ve got to slow down. I need to move into the next season -- a season of rest -- and prioritize myself, my family and friends, and my health. Because guess what? As important as my business is, everything outside of it is important, too. This doesn’t come naturally, sweet friend, and it’s going to take an intentional effort for me to pull off. But I know it’s what I need to do, and I am 100% committed to doing it. In this episode, I share what it’s like to go from a level 100 (where you’re doing all of the things, all of the time), to taking an intentional pause -- and why that’s important to do from time to timeEnjoy! Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts"I love Amy and Online Marketing Made Easy." <-- If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing my show!

You can’t do it all: How to work inside your zone of genius and let go of everything elseDo you feel like you’re in a constant juggling act in your business?When you’re an entrepreneur, things are bound to be busy – and sure, feeling overwhelmed at times is something to be expected. But if you feel like you always have a million plates spinning in the air, then it’s high time you start focusing on the things inside your zone of genius, and let go of all the other tasks that someone else can do for you.Passing the torch to an employee, a contractor or a VA can be really difficult, and I know this from personal experience.For ten full years, I insisted on editing my own videos. I thought that because I knew exactly what edits I wanted to make, I could do it quicker than anyone else could. Sure, I was ok at editing videos -- but it sure as heck was not the best use of my time. And when I finally hired someone to do this for me, I found that with a little training and investment on the front end, they were able to do it much more efficiently than I could – leaving me time to work on the things in my business that not only turn the needle, but light me up.In this episode, I share what it means to work inside your zone of genius, why that’s important, and how to get back to it if you get lost. This is a great listen for any business owner who feels like they are literally doing it all -- so pop in your earpods and tune in.Here’s a glance at this episode... [04:33] If you've ever felt overwhelmed in your business, I would suggest making a conscious effort to work more in your zone of genius. [05:11] Working in your zone of genius is doing the things that you are most proficient in. The work is fulfilling, because it makes you feel good. [06:02] An example of this for me is being on stage. I'm nervous at first, but at the end I feel energized and grounded.  [07:34] If there are things that make you feel low energy or have a really low vibe, these may be the things that you might need to find some help with. You should also hire someone if they can do the same thing in half the time. [08:29] An example of this is when I used to edit all of my own course videos. Editing videos isn't in my zone of genius. I was making excuses, because I was scared. [11:35] Prioritizing your zone of genius comes down to getting clear on what the important areas of your business are. For me, it's launching my digital courses, my membership, and my podcast. [13:50] When you plan for the next year, sit down and journal and really discover where your zone of genius is. Check in every season and ask where my zone of genius is now. [15:19] Superwoman syndrome is where you feel like you need to do everything and don't want to slow down and take the time to teach. [15:49] A good leader refuses to spend time on tasks that aren't in their zone of genius. They find the right people to support them and take the time to onboard and teach them. [16:23] Take out your journal and jot down some areas where you're operating in your zone of genius and where you're operating outside of your zone of genius. DM me @AmyPorterfield.
