How do you stop procrastinating? 

There are two main reasons you could be procrastinating:

1. The task is too easy and you are actually getting bored.
2. The task is too complex and it’s causing you to feel anxious.

I have a few tricks to prevent procrastination in both situations.

If you are bored of the task, go ahead and couple it with something you love to do. For me, I will listen to a podcast or music and complete task such as laundry.

For a complex task, here are a few strategies you can try:

1. Always start with the Minimum Viable Action - we chat about James Clear's book Atomic Habit which does explain this concept very well.
2. Use the SMART Goal method  -Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relatable, and timely.  - check out more episodes regarding preventing procrastinating A Few of My Scheduling Life Hacks!
3. Start a task for only 5 minutes and see if you can get into a “flow state” 
4. Reframe the task as a challenge rather than an obstacle

Now tell us in the comments… which 4 strategies will you use first to get out of the habit of procrastinating? 

Remember, Make a Plan and Take Action and YES you can have it all!

What is the biggest mistake business owners make? Not knowing their customer! If you don’t know who you are serving in business, then you do not know who you are marketing to. You need to understand your customer’s pain point and if your product or service is actually solving the problem!

 Here are a few tips on how to ensure you are creating the best product-market fit! 

1. Create a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and test your product or service by offering it for SALE and collecting real money! 
2.  Understand the psychographics of your customer to better align the sale of the product or service- A great example of this is how Mcdonald's appears to be selling food but they really are selling the convenience of getting a fast meal.

 At the end of the show, I share with you on how I knew I nailed it with the product market fit for the Also Sophia products at Walmart. So stay until the end!

For a successful business, you need to focus on Money, Mindset, and Marketing! Today I share my thoughts on all three topics and why you need to ensure you’re focusing on all three at once!

Why do we want to focus on all three domains in business? Well if you don’t make money in your business, it’s not a business. 

How do you make money? Well, you need to sell your product or service. Sales only can occur if the ideal client or customer knows about the product or service. This is where marketing comes into play. 

Finally, the mindset of the business owner will always drive the business toward the ultimate vision and goal for the business. It is the owner’s psychology that will dictate the growth of the business. If you have any doubts, check out Jeff Bezos and his relentlessness towards Amazon’s ultimate goal! 

So you might be thinking... “Ok… well what is the easiest way to market”. Currently, the answer is influencer marketing through social media! This is the best Return On your Investment (ROI).

Check out the free training here on how we made our product-based businesses Also Sophia blow up and hit Walmart shelves using Influencer Marketing -https://www.bossitclub.com/IMME

A few additional marketing options are collaborations and networking with other businesses. 

Remember, lead with the mindset that your ultimate goal or vision for the company will happen, and you are more likely to make this true as you will have fewer inhibitions to pitch and sell your product!

Time for me to reveal a few of my scheduling life hacks! Trust me, if you asked my friends and family, they are surprised that I haven’t forgotten to pick up my kids from school with all of the responsibilities that I have going on. This episode will tell you how I keep myself organized! 

1. Check in with myself regularly - I know what time of the day I do my best work. For me, I work best between 10 am to 2 pm…ask yourself what time of the day best suits your energy rhythm. Are there specific times of the day that you are more creative and will it serve you and your business to save “creative time” in your schedule? 
2. Organize my schedule the night before - I literally sit down at night, before the next morning start, and ensure I have studied my calendar to understand what to expect regarding deliverables and meetings. I will take my digital calendar commitments and copy these into my paper agenda to prime and prep myself psychologically for the next day 
3. Block my schedule to complete deliverables each day. One deliverable is actually answering all my emails. I will only complete 3 big items each day. To qualify a task as one of the “big 3”, the item must take more than 30 minutes to complete and require a greater level of attention to execute. And if you’re a time optimist and underestimate the time it takes to complete a task, multiply the time by 2 when estimating your time block length. Head to episode 73 to learn more about time blocking or click the link here to listen.

Why create a business? In episode 85, why spoke about WHY, and today we will speak about HOW to create a brand! Now, let’s speak about  HOW  we will create a brand and not just a business.

Here are the four tips on HOW to create a Brand! 

1. Learn as much as you can about who is the Ideal Customer Avatar - also known as - ICA or avatar - who is your business meant to serve? - great to understand their psychographics and demographics. 
2. Create an emotional connection to the brand through copy and other mediums. A feel-good emotion will connect your ICA to the brand and help to increase the lifetime value of your customer. 
3. What does your logo look like- keep it simple while eye-catching and ensure it’s consistent on all social platforms.
4. Socialize your brands so your ICA knows your business exists. Influencer marketing can help you achieve this goal with less stress.

Remember, you got this!
