When pivoting your business, what are the things to do and not to do to pivot successfully? Successfully pivoting your business isn't as complicated as you might think. The first step is identifying who fits the new soulmate client description in your community. These people will become your low-hanging fruit. Be consistent when pivoting your business. Jen has already been talking about time management but with stepmoms, not specifically entrepreneurs. However, because she has entrepreneurs within her community of stepmoms, time management should continue to be a consistent focus. Communication is crucial for successfully pivoting your business. People will respect that you are upfront with them about changing your business. Invite them to continue to follow your journey. Even if they are not your new ideal client, they may become your new ideal client. In addition, if people in your community fit the new ideal client description, they will become your support system, first clients, or source of word-of-mouth referrals. What do you do about your podcast when changing your business? If you are pivoting your business and have a podcast, you may feel you have additional problems on your hands. However, you can simplify this transition. When you have built a successful podcast that is highly ranked, has a following, and has many reviews, there is no reason to scrap what you've built and start over. Pivoting a business can be time-intensive and overwhelming. Don't add starting your podcast over from scratch to your to-do list if you don't have to. Remember that you have a built-in audience who will follow you to the new podcast and help spread the word because they already know, love, and trust you. On the new podcast graphic, you can include the phrase, formerly known as, so that people can readily recognize that you are the host and will be sharing the same quality of content. You can keep your brand assets to help you stay recognizable and capitalize on the brand you've already built. Incorporating your former key phrases with your new podcast allows you to maintain some SEO stability as you transition the show. This means your name, keywords relating to your soulmate clients, and the solution you provide for them, i.e., time management for women, time management for stepmoms, time management for entrepreneurs, time management for women entrepreneurs, and time management for entrepreneurs who are stepmoms. If your focus was formerly on time management for stepmoms, now you are linking time management to your new audience of women entrepreneurs. Your URL is important - take it with you. Any time you change your business name or podcast name and URL, redirect the old URL to the new URL. That way, if people search for your past name or URL, they will be redirected to your new show and business. This will help you avoid broken links.

What does a business need to succeed?

Are you struggling to reach the level of success you desire? Yes? So then, what do you need to do to be successful? Three key things. If you have felt overwhelmed with growing your business, you must have asked the question, what do you need to do to be successful? The fact is, there are three crucial components to entrepreneurial success. The most important is a positive mindset. The three things you need to succeed A positive mindset, strategy, and action—that's it. Many struggle to achieve a positive mindset because they are looking for it in the wrong places - worldly places, new age philosophies, and other people. Without a positive mindset, you cannot focus on creating efficient strategies that will guide you to success. And without strategy, you don't know what action to take. In addition, mindset influences the actions you take. You will not take positive, effective action if you have a negative mindset. Before we go any further, recognize that you need help to succeed. You may be surprised at where the best help will come from. What do you need to do to be successful? Prioritize your mindset, as it is the most important of the three. You can create strategies all day, but if your mindset—your beliefs and thoughts—is unfavorable, you will not implement the plan effectively or make the right choices to take the right actions. With that said, what do you need to do to be successful? Focus on your beliefs and thoughts. A positive mindset comes from the Word of God. How can you adopt a positive mindset when you feel stuck in a cycle, maybe a life-long cycle, of doubt, fear, self-criticism, imposter syndrome, and lack? God gives us specific advice on this in Scripture. In 2 Corinthians 10:4-5, Paul says, "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have the divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." In Romans 12:2, Paul wrote, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then, you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing, and perfect will." Paul tells us in Philippians 4:8, "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

Stop trading time for money. That is a mindset of lack, and God didn't create you for lack; He created you for an abundant life in Him. How can you develop an abundance mindset? The transformation from a lack mindset to an abundance mindset begins with Scripture. It's also important to recognize that trading time for money as an entrepreneur is not an abundance mindset. The Bible tells us we have an abundance. It all began when God created the world. He made it plentiful, beautiful, and perfect. Then, He created Adam and Eve. And the world was still perfect—until. . . Satan distracted Eve. The Garden of Eden was abundant in everything Adam and Eve needed to live. According to the free dictionary, the name Eden means a delightful place, a paradise. In addition, it is a state of innocence, bliss, or ultimate happiness. God created Eden as the perfect place for Adam and Eve to live abundantly. In Genesis 2:16, God told Adam, “You may freely eat the fruit of every tree in the garden, and in verse 17, the exception was given. He was not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil." Eat freely from every tree except one. Instead of seeing the abundance she had, Eve let Satan convince her she was living in lack because of the one tree she was told she couldn't eat from. How often do we follow Eve's example and focus on what we don't have instead of the abundance God has given us? Satan distracted Eve. And he distracts us today, too. Think about how often you think of what you don't have instead of what you do. Many of us complain about not having enough time. Eve had everything she needed, but the devil made her doubt that she had enough because she didn't have what the Tree of Knowledge could give her. We do the same thing when we have a scarcity mindset about time, resources, knowledge, or talents. Putting a dollar sign on our time and trading time for money is an example of seeing time as limited instead of seeing the value our gifts and knowledge allow us to provide for others and be more responsible with our time. What does Scripture say about an abundance mindset? Read the full show notes and access all links.   

God wants you to have an abundance mindset
