Episode Highlights

00:37 - 2019, I had already told myself that in 2020 I'm going to have to quit my job because I'm going to make more money as an entrepreneur. So, I had already started to work on certain things to set myself up for success. I didn't then know that God was going to push me out the door at the beginning of 2020 to get to that success. I had no idea. So, the first thing I did, and I'll be God honest with you all, I went on YouTube. I started researching different coaches, and I found a coach. That was the first thing I did. After I did that, I officially registered my business name. I later on went and opened up a business bank account because I was like, let me go ahead and let the universe know that I'm serious about this business and I need the money to flow in.

Are millennials approaching entrepreneurship in a different way compared to the old school methods of their predecessors? Elzie and Tashima Freeman explore this topic and share their unique perspectives.

Tashima, a millennial entrepreneur herself, argues that the younger generation has higher goals, and notes the ever-changing landscape of entrepreneurship. She shares how her grandmother, an older entrepreneur, remains successful by sticking with tried and tested methods.

Are you curious to find out how different generations approach entrepreneurship? Hear how the different generations got their own goals, methods and tools for achieving success, not just financially, but also in terms of personal growth and fulfillment. Tune in to this episode to learn more about the different approaches to entrepreneurship and how to achieve success in the modern business world.

Episode Highlights

01:40 - This is not to discredit anyone who's older. Our dreams for the younger generation is just a little bit more higher. We are looking for legitimate generational wealth, and we don't just want to start it and then die and let our kids have it. We want to experience it and live through it, too. So, back then, they're like, "I'm good with making my 250 a year." Over here, we need a little bit more than 250 a year. We're like, "Okay, where's the half a mil? We're trying to get a little closer to seven figures." And once we get to 1.2 million in our business, we're like, "Okay, if we can do that, we can do more." So, I think one, the goal of what we're trying to reach in the younger generation is a lot higher, if I would say, than what some of the older generation is trying to reach.

Tashima's passion for accounting led her to start her own accounting firm, KSK Tax and Accounting Solutions, which she successfully turned into a six-figure business within just nine months. Tune in to learn more about Tashima's journey and how she managed to make her dreams come true.

Episode Highlights

00:34 - If you ask anyone who has known me, they will tell you Tashima has always said she was going to own her own accounting firm. So, if you met me in 11th grade or met me in my sophomore year of college and asked me, "What do you plan to do?" I'm going to own my own accounting firm. And it has always been that I wanted to work with small business owners and I'm doing just that. And to be fair, both of my parents are entrepreneurs. I have watched both of my parents grow a business and work for themselves my entire life. So, it's kind of in me. It ain't on me.

Tashima Freeman shares her inspiring journey from a college student working in accounting to a successful six-figure boss. She gained valuable experience by filing taxes while still in college, which helped her launch her own accounting firm, KSK Tax and Accounting Solutions, in just nine months after leaving her corporate job in 2020.

Two years later, she launched her own coaching business. Tune in to hear Tashima's tips on starting your own business and how she achieved success in such a short amount of time. Listen as we dive into Tashima's story and uncover her success secrets on how you, too, can climb the ladder from student to six-figure boss!

Episode Highlights

00:52 - It's rare to say this, but I have been working in the accounting field since before I even got my degree in it. I love accounting. It is definitely near and dear to my heart. I started doing taxes in about 2013, so I was still in college. So, I've built up a lot of experience so that I could be credible. And it's something I've done up until 2020. And when I say that, I mean corporate-wise. I was fired from my corporate job in 2020 and the next day started to make strides and motions to launch my own accounting firm, and I did. I launched KSK Tax and Accounting Solutions in March of 2020 and made my first six figures, because I was not making six figures in my corporate job. I made my first six figures within nine months of launching and then two years later launched my coaching business.

Are you struggling to make sales in your startup? Have you ever wondered why sales often take a backseat in the equation? Elzie delves into the importance of sales with guest speaker, Ron Story, a seasoned sales expert.

Elzie kicks off the conversation by asking why people don't prioritize sales despite its crucial role in business success. Ron believes that CEOs should be the best salesperson in their company, as they need to transfer belief in their product.

They explore different sales methodologies, such as transactional, consultative, and the Challenger sale. Ron draws parallels between the sales process and dating, stressing the importance of engagement, conversation, and listening to prospective customers. He emphasizes that the sales process should match the quality of the product to win customers, underscoring the need for alignment.

Listen to their discussion on identifying areas for improvement by asking customers for feedback and implementing changes accordingly and get valuable advice from Ron as he shares his approach of doubling value without additional cost, based on customer input. Tune in now to discover the importance of exemplary performance to create long-lasting partnerships and learn strategies to level up your sales game.

Episode Highlights

03:09 - At the beginning, you're told you can hire someone. If you have a good idea, you can hire someone to sell it for you. But you don't realize, as the CEO, sales is a transfer of belief. So, if you, as the CEO, aren't the best salesperson in your company, nobody else is going to believe in your product because you couldn't sell them on it. So, the CEO has to be the best salesperson.

06:32 - One of the simplest ones that everybody's used to is the one that we hate, transactional selling. That's when I'm just telling you, "Hey, you want to buy this? Hey, see this iPhone? It splices. It dices. It does this." That's the guy that we see on the infomercial that we don't want to be. We don't want to be Billy with the squeegee thing. We don't want to be Billy that can scrape the stuff off the frying pan to show it to people. That's more transactional selling. I have to get above it, all my information on you, in order for you to buy something from me right now. I don't care what you think. All I want you to do is to hear what I'm saying. That's transactional selling. Used car dealers, a lot of insurance agents are that way. Does that make sense?

18:26 - You have to be sure that your sales process matches your product. If I'm just selling an ebook online, it should be like McDonald's, because I'm only getting $7 or $20 or something. If I'm selling a $1,000 coaching program or something like that or some type of service, it's probably not going to be Ruth's Chris. It's probably going to be something like a Chili's. It's going to be not the best sales process, but not the worst either. But if I'm telling you, you should give me $5,000 a month on a three-year contract or $20,000 a month for one-month of consulting or for a speaking gig, I'd better smell Ruth's Chris. I better get that Ruth's Chris feeling. That's the important thing. If you have those things match up, then it's easy to win because there's congruency in the sales process.

21:54 - When you charge a certain amount, you should ask your customers, what would have made this better? Usually the things that would have made it better doesn't usually have a large incremental cost to you, but it's a large incremental increase in value. That's why you got to ask the questions and talk to the customer. How much more does it cost to leave some magazines telling them what to do? It don't cost nothing, but it gives you an extra start. You probably could add an extra $10 to your price for leaving the same magazines for everybody, something that tells them the best restaurants in the area and the walking distance, and stay away. The things that can add value usually don't have incremental cost a lot of times. Just by doing that process, you can find out what makes your sales process better.

25:51 - Let's just double what you've been doing so that you can adjust to it. Because taking somebody who's used to doing five appointments a week to five appointments a day, they're going to be exhausted. The adrenaline dump that they will receive on that first day that they do five appointments will be like nothing they've ever experienced, and they're going to hate me. We've learned to just throttle it for them. That's the ideal situation, is we work with you on a month-to-month basis that way we have some skin in the game. Where if we don't perform, you don't want to keep working with us, but you're not obligated to stay with us for 12 months if we're not doing our job. I believe if we're doing our job, you are not going to want to get rid of us. So, that's how that works.

Using his experience developing sales for a marketing automation software, Ron illustrates the impact of a strong sales process. He believes that outsourcing sales is not possible and that it's the CEO's responsibility to drive sales.

Are you a startup founder or CEO struggling to drive sales and grow your business? Then tune in to this episode and learn how you can unlock the potential of your startup. Become a top-notch salesperson with Ron's invaluable tips. Listen now and get the confidence you need to succeed!

Episode Highlights

00:44 - At the beginning, you're told you can hire someone. If you have a good idea, you can hire someone to sell it for you. But you don't realize, as the CEO, sales is a transfer of belief. So, if you, as the CEO, aren't the best salesperson in your company, nobody else is going to believe in your product because you couldn't sell them on it. So, the CEO has to be the best salesperson.
