Two weeks ago I attended a coaching conference in Washington, DC. Such conferences allow me to keep growing as a coach. Staying on top of the newest coaching techniques and better ways to help my clients is a priority for me. The better I am as a coach, the faster my clients get results, and the bigger their return on investment is.
At the same time, during such conferences, I always learn or am reminded of critical business lessons for entrepreneurs. And in today's podcast, I'm sharing 5 of them with you.

"Easy money" projects, clients, and income in your business can be a good thing when you need to pay an unexpected bill or earn a few extra bucks.
However, that can put you in a trap of working lower-paying work and not having time to sign clients paying your full price. And, therefore working hard and underearning.
In Today's Maggie's Moment, I share with you tips on how to avoid it.
How do you double your service-based business without adding more work?
By embracing the concept of strategic constraint and the Pareto Principle.
Instead of spreading yourself too thin trying to do it all, you want to make it strategic and take a few actions that will create most of your results. Such decisions are based on positive emotions rather than fear. By focusing on the 20% of efforts that yield 80% of results your business will scale more effectively.

What if the thing you’ve been avoiding doing so far in your service business is the exact thing preventing you from growing it?
No matter how much you want to believe that it’s not. No matter how much you’re trying to do without it by finding other solutions.
That thing could be you presenting in front of people. Or hiring your first employee. Or holding your team members accountable.
You’ve been avoiding doing it because it’s hard.
And with a busy schedule like yours, there’s always something else you can do. Something easier or more urgent. Social media. A client project. A call from a supplier.
However, no matter which direction you move, you always come back to and get stuck on the thing you’re avoiding. It's because you cannot outwork your skill gap. And your business cannot outgrow you.
So instead of spinning in circles, now it’s the time to get it done. To face the bull head-on and just do it.
Today's Maggie's Moment has a challenge for you. Tune in to learn more.
Ready to double your business without adding more work to your schedule? Doing the hard thing can achieve that. Because you'll master the skill that right now you're compensating for with extra hours of work and hustle. I can make mastering those skills easy for you. How? Let’s talk HERE.
