We've all heard the expression "the customer is always right", but you shouldn't be letting that guide your decision making in business.  In this episode we talk about why you need to set the rules for your customers, and why it's ok for you to make them play by those rules.  If we let our customers tell us what to do it will drive us crazy and will prevent us from building successful and scalable businesses that we can maintain control of.  We're not saying to treat your customers badly, we're just saying that to give the best service to your valued customers, you have to create parameters and stick to those parameters.  Successful businesses thrive with good customers, not problems customers, so do your customers a favour and give them some rules to follow.

Are you falling into the trap of trying to prove your worth by giving away too much for free?

In this episode you'll hear Tanya & Mike discuss how giving stuff for FREE backfires in business and they'll illustrate this with personal examples.

You'll hear Tanya & Mike discuss:

• The motivation behind WHY people WANT to give SO much away for free.
• Why the exchange of money is an ESSENTIAL part of the process.
• How you're inadvertently devaluing yourself, your services, and frankly, your entire industry.
• Why people feel they don't need to pay for a service and the dangers of feeling like they are getting "enough" for free.
• EXACTLY how to speak about your services so potential clients/customers see the value rather than the cost.
• Why it's not surprising that you weren't successful in the past and what you were missing. (It's NOT YOU. There's nothing wrong with you, you are capable.)
• How confidence and worthiness play a BIG part in the mix.
• How FREE spoils the results for your clients. Tanya shares some feedback from one of her clients to illustrate this point.
• "Free-loaders" and how they're impacting your business.

And then you'll be left to decide... Are you really serving people when you give it to them for free?

To succeed as an entrepreneur you need to be in control, and this means taking responsibility instead of making excuses.  In this episode we look at how blame will stand in the way of you achieving what you want in business.  Everybody has challenges as they seek to become successful, but these can either be a blessing or a curse.  We encourage you to shift that mindset so you view challenges not as the universe standing in your way, but as the universe helping you do what you need to do to get to where you want to be.

 In this episode you'll hear:

• How to shift out of being a victim of your circumstances into creating the life + business you want
• The difference between blaming and taking responsibility for your own success
• Why mentorship and tools aren't enough
• The limitations of outsourcing
• The power of figuring it out
• How you react to adversity matters
