11: How to Scale Your Business as a Solopreneur


Listen Later

Today, we’re going to talk about How to Scale Your Business as a Solopreneur.

Think solopreneurs can't scale? Think again.

Where are my mighty teams of one? I’m here raising my hand with you, girlfriends. And I understand the unique challenges (and rewards) of building and scaling your business as a solopreneur.

I’m here to bust the age old myth that solopreneurs can’t scale.
- Maybe you’ve hit a cap in your business and don’t think you have any room to scale.
- Maybe you’re a service based creative entrepreneur and think it’s just physically impossible to scale your business.
- OR Maybe you have no doubt you could scale your business to multi-6 figures, but you believe you would never have time for your family so you’re not interested.

... I’ve heard it all, I’ve thought it all. I’m here to call BS on all of it. You can absolutely scale your business to 6 figures and beyond AND have freedom in your life and business (infact, the steps I’m going to share today will give you MORE freedom).

I said all of these things and guess what? I scaled from $30k in year one, to $300k in yearly revenue (without burnout).

In this episode, I'm sharing the exact steps I took to simplify and scale my business. We'll talk about what you need to focus on, eliminate, and streamline to get you to multi 6-figures while still maintaining the freedom in your life.

In today's episode, we'll cover:
- How to simplify your process and streamline your business so that you can scale as a solopreneur
- The unique challenges and struggles that solopreneurs face
- How to automate your business using tools (Honeybook for proposals and invoices, Calendly for scheduling appointments and Planoly for planning and batching social media)
- How to choose the right business mentor, podcast, books or resources
- What to simplify in your business so that you can scale (your offerings, your prices and quoting and your appointments) I’ll also share a bit of my journey of how I was able to scale my wedding stationery business from $30k to $300k as a solopreneur. Let’s dive in!
