This is episode 307 of Bella in Your Business.

Hi there, I'm Bella Vasta from Jump Consulting. You might know me from CBS, NBC, Fox, Huffington Post, Entrepreneur, or maybe you've seen me speak on stage or read my book The Four Dogs That Every Business Owner Needs. In any case, get ready because you're about to get your hashtag Bella Butt Kickin' in this next episode of Bella in Your Business.

So what do you say? Let's get ready and jump.

Welcome to another episode of Bella in Your Business. My name is Bella Vasta. Today is episode 307, and we're going to talk about the three things you need to do every day to drive your business into the ground.

Bella, why are you talking about this today? Well, you know, I'm in every single pet sitting group out there—you just don't know it. And I see things. I hear things. And they astonish me.

Although I know my Jumpers are the elite—they’re the big thinkers, the doers, the visionaries—I know that sometimes we’re not always at our best. And sometimes there are things that we do, or thought processes that we have, that actually end up driving us into the ground.

I want you to be aware of those because by being aware of them, it’s going to help you understand where you’re going wrong. All of those “My God, I’m so busy. I’m so stressed out. I have no time,” all of that contributes to driving your business into the ground.

Unfortunately, I see people doing things every single day that contribute to this—and I want you to avoid them. I want you to be successful.

As always, this might be a short episode, but I really want to drop the knowledge for you guys while you’re walking dogs, driving in the car, at school pickup, doing laundry, working out—whatever it might be—and then move on. So here we go with the quick and dirty.

You’ve heard me say this one before, but I have to say it again: If I can literally copy and paste your website and put it on someone else’s, you’re doing it wrong.

If your website is generic—it’s like that classic white t-shirt that you can put on anybody—you’re doing it wrong. You need a custom t-shirt that only fits your body, and if I were to wear your custom t-shirt, it would look hideous on me.

What does that mean? It means truly knowing who you are and what you stand for, and then talking about it on your website. It means knowing who your avatar is, what their problems are, and addressing that on your website and social media.
