The excitement of starting your very own business and the beliefs of your success are high when you are first starting your business.  You think about what you want to sell, how you will sell it, the marketing and just how much your business is needed in the marketplace.  You might have started an online business, you could be a course creator, you may have decided to be a small business coach, life coach, virtual assistant, bookkeeper, podcast manager or other service based or product based business.  Whatever the business you started, you were pumped and had no reason to doubt that your business will be anything but a big success.  But then something doesn’t go the way you originally planned, and you begin to doubt if your business will be successful.  You wonder if you made a big mistake, or you may have self-doubt kicking in and you wonder if you are even the right person to have started this business in the first place.  We’ve all been there, but how do you keep up your positivity and belief that your business will be successful when you start having these doubts?  In today’s episode, I am talking about what can happen when you have these doubts and what you can do to continue to not only believe in the success of your business but believe in yourself as well.  I want to make sure that you continue to hold on to that excitement you once had for your business and what you can do each and every day to make sure you don’t lose that insight.  Listen in to today’s episode, especially if you are getting ready to start your small business, you’re a solopreneur, entrepreneur, small business owner, virtual online bookkeeper or virtual assistant, and make sure you are following these important steps to ensure the continued success of your small business…

Every business owner wants to make sales.  Generating sales and incurring revenue so that you have the funds you need to pay for your expenses and have enough net income so that you can enjoy the fruits of your labor is the dream of most business owners, but when you lose your focus on sales or are unsure how you should be getting additional sales, your bottom line will definitely be impacted.  In today’s podcast episode, you’ll learn about the most common sales mistakes and how you can prevent them in your business.  Understanding your client and pricing your product or service correctly will help you gain the sales you are looking for in your business whether you are a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA.  We’ll talk about simplicity and how this alone could help you boost your sales.  These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…

Find out how you can work with me by either scheduling a free consultation or signing up for the BALANCE Life Coaching program, where you can get private one-on-one coaching every week.  Find out where you’d like to see yourself and your business in the future.  We’ll create a laser-focused plan, including which action steps you need to take to get started on the path to success:
