773: 1-Sale to 439 Leads in 48-Hours

I went from one sale to 439 leads in just 48 hours and I’m going to tell you exactly how I did it! I recently took the biggest gamble I have ever taken in my business. I refunded tickets to my upcoming Sales Flow workshop and scrapped everything my team and I had spent weeks preparing for. I did this because only one ticket was bought in 24 hours when I announced my workshop. This mission is far too important to me to let one dry season put me under. You only have one life and I want women everywhere to have choices, opportunities, and freedom! I can only make the kind of impact I want to make if more women in business know what I know. So, I came up with a plan to save this workshop, this business, and a plan that will change countless lives and give more women opportunities. In nearly a decade of business, I have never seen numbers rise this fast! There are clear strategies for scaling a business that most people don’t know about. Instead, they have to rely on trendy marketing tactics that don’t work the same way for everyone. Every business is different and one person’s success does not define your own.That’s why I want to share the exact strategies and facts that will bring you success (and not just the shiny, sexy ones). You need this information. I will redefine what transparency looks like in this industry because it was not easy to get to where I am today.

772: Prioritizing Your Life When Shit Hits the Fan

I like to see this time of year as the opportunity to dive back in and come up with a fresh approach to plan for the future! This season can be about refining what you have built so that your business can continue to support you for a long time. I know that many of you use this time to make new goals and create new opportunities, but today I want to talk about what it looks like to prepare your business so that you’re ready when life comes at you again. Shit is going to hit the fan whether you want it to or not and I want you to build a business that can survive that without being so dependent on you. Personally, I never want to be financially dependent on anyone else and I know that many of you feel the same way! You want your business to work even when life gets thrown your way. You aren’t trying to fix the ‘shit,’ you’re trying to live and work while it’s happening!I do not think enough people understand the reality of the added stress being a business owner brings. The tiniest thing can happen that will completely derail your day or even your life. These things are part of life and will happen whether you have a business or not. So how do we deal with these challenges as they come up and prevent them from completely altering our future success? I know so many of you wish you could wave a magic wand and be at the point in your business where you could rely on it consistently in challenging seasons. And not being there yet is fine! What I want you to do is create a business that allows you to prioritize what you want and that is built to survive if you have to walk away for a while. If you want a business that can handle these things, you’re going to have to make some changes.Thank you for listening! Please subscribe, rate, and review The Strategy Hour Podcast on iTunes.

770: How to Leverage Where You Are to Get to Where You Want to Go

Today I want to talk about where you’re going; whether you know what that looks like or not. I know that for many of you, you may not even be sure where you want to go and that’s okay! It’s really easy to overlook the value of your past experiences but you are, in essence, a cumulation of them and they can be so valuable in shaping where you want to go. I know a lot of you may not know the answer and that is okay! It’s not about knowing the answer, it’s about using this as a jumping-off point. Even all the previous jobs you’ve ever had shape the business you have today! The real question now is how does your past inform where you’re going? These moments and experiences, big or small, can have a huge impact on what you want to do next. So how do we leverage it? It’s important to point out that this is not about speed but rather about pace! That’s why I came up with the PACE method and today, I’m sharing how these facts ultimately help you apply your findings to something that is actually actionable by breaking down PACE.Thank you for listening!
