October 30, 2020How to Get More Sales with Email Marketing.
Click link to get on the waitlist for Farm Marketing Mastery: http://theprofitablemindset.com/ Many farmers discount the value in learning marketing. I hear from many people who say - people don't read email anymore, it's dead, social media is where it's at. My emails all go to spam. Farmers will even say things like, "email marketing is too basic." But guess what. "Basic" is the most profitable and powerful tool we all have available to us. You just don't believe it yet. You want proof. I encourage you - go create your proof. Do it. Watch the proof flow into your bank account. The farmers I work with who study, implement, and then practice email marketing have proof it's the most profitable marketing tool in existence. Their proof? The tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars and the millions of dollars flowing into their businesses. Because of their very BASIC and very POWERFUL tool of email marketing. If you want a profitable farm, email marketing is essential. I’ve been teaching marketing for 8 years and doing my own farm's marketing for 11 years, and here’s what I know for sure: No matter what other options, social media channels or trends may come or go, email marketing is still the MOST successful means of building your profitable farm. Research consistently demonstrates that, too - email marketing is often 50 times more profitable than any other form of marketing. And so, in episode 52, I’m teaching you How to Get More Sales with Email Marketing. If you haven’t started your mailing list yet or your emails aren’t getting the results you want, tune in and learn:

How to get set up with your email marketing system today

The truth about why people do (or don’t) buy from you

What to do if your email list is 'dead' or no one is opening your emails

The one thing you must do if you want to build a list of loyal customers

How to know what to write about (plus one essential element to include in every email)

The reason why most farmers struggle to market their business is because they don’t have a strategy. They haven’t invested time or money in learning how to market their farms. Rather, they look around at what other people are doing and try to follow along. It will never work to try to copy what others are doing in order to be successful if you haven't learned to create your strategy. If you’re ready to build a profitable, sustainable farm, you need a strategy that works and what I’m sharing in episode 52 is exactly what you need to get started. Click here to listen now!

October 15, 2020Why You Need to Set HUGE Money Goals on Your Farm
Book a Free Strategy Session Here: 3cowmarketing.com/strategy A lot of farmers complain they can’t make money on a farm. And the truth is - most farmers DON'T make any money, or at least enough to even cover expenses. Most (98%) go out of business. But here's what I know. It's not that you can't make money on a farm. It's that you haven't learned how. And by "how" - I don't mean the actions you have to take - most people are repeating all the same actions they see other farmers doing and wonder why the same actions aren't working for them. Making money in any business including farming starts with knowing how you've got to be thinking. It's NOT the actions you take that makes you profitable. That's what most people think and do - and that's why they're failing. Let me teach you how to think about money so you can finally get profitable. There IS a profitable mindset. Time to embrace it! I know from my own experience and the experience of my many clients that you CAN learn how to build a profitable farm. In episode 50, I’m going to teach you the first step to making as much money as you want on your farm. Here’s what I want you to remember: Setting a money goal is not really about the money. After all, you reach a point where you don’t need money to have more things. Rather, I set money goals in my business because of the person I have to become in order to reach my goals. Here's what I know - in order to reach each any new goal I set in my life, I've had to become a new version of myself. Maybe that means I become more disciplined, more focused, a better communicator. THAT is the huge payoff. Better relationships with myself and others - priceless! When you join me for episode 50, you’ll learn:

How to set goals that challenge you to reach a new level

The real reason you’re not making money (or not reaching your goals)

The mindset skills you’ll need to reach your goals every time

The truth about what it takes to up-level and reach huge goals

What I’m teaching in this episode is exactly what I’ve done to build a profitable farm with ease. And when you learn and apply these skills, the same can be true for you. If you’re ready to take your farm business to the next level, take a little time to listen to episode 50 right now. Much love, Charlotte

October 09, 2020How to Scale Your Farm for More Profit
Click HERE to Book A Free Strategy Session to Decide if Investing in Coaching is Right for You Most farmers start up their small business and have some immediate success at first - they sell out on all the chickens. Or, there's so much demand for their beef they quickly and with ease sell the first couple of cows. Or, their bouquets on their brand new self-serve farm stand fly off the property! So they immediately see and sense there's way more demand than product - and they decide to increase production. Sounds logical, right? Only here's where I see people get into trouble. This plays out in several, problematic ways that result in lots of $$ loss. Scaling in the wrong way is one of the biggest reasons newer farms go under. I outline it all on the podcast today and then I'll dive into how to scale correctly, with ease and success. Listen now to Episode 49 of The Profitable Mindset Podcast, where I’m talking all about scaling your farm business. When you listen to this episode, you’ll learn:

The specific steps you should take before even thinking about scaling

What you need to have in place before you can scale your business

The truth about money and your business (and the mistake that leads too many farmers to go broke)

What to do if you feel pressured to scale before you’re ready

Plus, I’m sharing what worked for me in scaling our farm business successfully and with ease! Once you have the foundation that I teach in place, you’ll find that you’re also able to see what needs to happen or change so that you can successfully scale your farm to serve more customers and increase your profits. Whether you feel ready to scale now or want to have a plan to scale your farm in the future, you’ll want to take a little time to listen to episode 49 now. Much love, Charlotte

August 20, 2020 How to Avoid Debt and Have Consistent Cash Flow on Your Farm
Learn to maintain an empty inbox & organized mind with my free "Inbox Zero" training: http://www.3cowmarketing.com/zero When you started your farm, did you have a plan for cash flow? I didn’t, I just knew I wanted to start a farm. Now I ended up picking something that was great for cash flow. With dairy, I would milk the cows in the morning and by the end of the day, I would literally have a box of cash. This was back in the days when people picked up milk on their own and put money in a box. We were open seven days a week, and it was the best cash flow plan I could have dreamed up. I was lucky, because I didn’t intentionally have a plan for immediate cash flow. Depending on what you’re producing, there are times when you need to invest some of your outside money in your farm and times when you’re making more from your product sales. Lack of cash flow is another big reason many farmers go out of business, and so on today's episode, I'm talking about 3 ways to have more consistent cash flow on your farm. If you're in the first year or two of your business, you’re going to have a lot of start-up expenses as you’re building the infrastructure of your farm. With this understanding, you’ll want to have a lot of working capital either with a big bank account full of money or a day job that allows you to keep investing in your farm. Beyond these first years, we’re talking about money coming into then is going out of your business, and simple changes you can make in running your business so that you have consistent cash flow and don’t have to keep using credit cards or taking out loans in order to run your farm. In this episode, I’m sharing one of the best changes I made on my farm and how you can make this simple change today to help with a cash flow problem. I’m explaining why this change is a win for your business and your customers, and how to convey these benefits so that customers are happy to pay. We’re also taking a look at assets and liabilities, as I explain why I think one commonly considered liability is actually an asset in business. I’m sharing how this asset contributes to the profits on my farm and how you can do the same. When you listen to this episode, you’ll discover what might be the most valuable asset in your business and what to focus on in order to have a positive cash flow, and a profitable, sustainable business. If you're ready to increase your cash flow, listen to the newest episode of Profitable Mindset now! Much love, Charlotte
