Wow that was a long title, right?

But it's true, if you look around for specialist sales support in the social enterprise sector, it is very limited.

After nearly 10 years as a social entrepreneur, and 18 years designing and leading social impact programmes, I thought it would be interesting to come back to this question for International Social Enterprise Day.

This episode is a replay of the masterclass I delivered in The Impact Entrepreneurs Club FB group on 17th October. 

In this Masterclass I'm sharing what I did last year to simplify my business beyond recognition + nearly triple my annual income, whilst I worked less than 20 hours/week.

This is perfect for you, if you're an online service provider such as a coach, consultant or creative with a social or environmental purpose, ready to scale your business but not 100% sure exactly what to do. 

It includes:

> How I structure my offer suite so my audience knows the best way to work with me right now

> The tech I use to automate key aspects of my business because there's just not enough hours in the day to do everything manually!

> How I've structured my systems and operations in a way that doesn't take up loads of time​

> How I plan and manage "all the things" so they actually get done at the right time

> And how I allow more space and freedom in my business, so I can spend more time with my girls!

There are so many people out there these days trying to grab your attention on how to reach 6 figures, market your biz and make more sales and although certain approaches and strategies that you learn will no doubt help, what makes the biggest difference and allows you to sustain success is mastering what you're great at and the way you run your business aligned to your values and vision. 

When I work with my clients we explore what they need in their sales process and how they embody their values within it. We look at what is and isn't working for them and importantly what they need to master. 

In this episode I break this down and share how you can master your own sales approach too.
