The Small Business School Podcast

Overcoming People Pleasing in Business


Listen Later

Welcome back to Small Business School! In today's episode I want to talk about people pleasing. The fear of not being liked or disappointing others in your business is something that can really hold you back from scaling your business and finding freedom in entrepreneurs. Let’s get into a few tips to overcome this in your business!

Topics Covered:

  • Acknowledging that it's impossible to please everyone and accepting that disappointment will happen.
  • Embracing vulnerability and admitting mistakes to foster authenticity and trust within your team.
  • Learning to say no gracefully to clients or customers without sacrificing professionalism or kindness.
  • Offering alternative solutions or referrals when you're unable to meet someone's expectations.
  • Recognizing the importance of delegating customer service responsibilities as your business grows to maintain momentum and focus on strategic growth.

You can’t serve everyone! Stop bending your back to please everyone in your business and start scaling your impact for those that align with your business’ direction! Reach out, I’d love to hear how you’ve overcome this challenge!
