Here's 3 more mistakes that you're making if you haven't grown or signed on any new clients in the past few months. Let's get to the bottom of why your revenue is low and no leads coming your way

You’re the roadblock in your business’s success. I say that with certainty because these are the most common mistakes my clients are making when we start working together. I also suffered from these and only when I corrected them did things literally open up for me and my business. 

This is part 2 of a two part series.

Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode:

• Standing out in your industry will help you get noticed and hired because people remember what stands out.
• These 3 mistakes are not only beginner mistakes. Hear my 3 questions to tell if you’re suffering from these mistakes.
• Staying hidden (and safe) is not an option for you to share your story and solutions.

PLUS, my biggest tip for nipping these mistakes in the butt and correct them.

It’s time to get to the bottom of why your revenue is low and no leads coming your way

You’re the roadblock in your business’s success. I say that with certainty because these are the most common mistakes my clients are making when we start working together. I also suffered from these and only when I corrected them did things literally open up for me and my business. 

This is part 1 of a two part series.

Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode:

• Communication is a skill that gets overlooked and it’s holding you back from getting attention, referrals and selling more.
• These 3 mistakes are not only beginner mistakes. Hear my 3 questions to tell if you’re suffering from these mistakes.
• Objections are not big red stop signs to end the sales call. It’s an invitation to dive deeper into a new conversation with your prospect.

PLUS, my biggest tip for nipping these mistakes in the butt and correct them.

What if growing a business and signing on clients was actually easy?

Well it can be. It’s not a matter of finding the right strategy, as much as it’s about being consistent, Like taking a daily vitamin each day to keep you healthy, there are a few things you need to do to grow your business. Do you think any of those big influencers that you follow, didn’t;t start out doing a few things each day? You’re right, no, they did a few things on repeat.

That’s exactly what I share with on this episode.

Check out what you’ll learn:

• Chopping wood and carrying water doesn’t sound sexy but it gets the job done.
• 
  
• How starting and stopping a half marathon takes longer and the same is true for your business growth.
• 
  
• The Daily Vitamin Theory, you do it everyday and not take a week’s worth one day. You’d never get all the benefits!

PLUS, I share what a couple of my private clients are doing to get fully booked out with ease and fun.

Your current situation is directly related to your current habits.

Your day consists of a string of habits all day long. Your subconscious brain, like your personal assistant, wants to do as much on auto pilot and not bother you with “thinking” what to do next. Those habits are either pulling you toward or away from the goals and dreams you’re trying to work towards.

Each new level requires new habits. In this episode, I talk about how to determine your current habits and if they’re the right habits to get you to achieving your goals.

Check out what you’ll learn:

• How to evaluate your current habits by honestly looking at how you use your time and money. Your calendar and bank statements don’t lie.
• Track your time using the Time Tracking Sheet here for free.
• Look at the symptoms your life and business are showing to determine your current habits. Similar to annual blood work, your business has symptoms that you can look at: roster of clients, # of weekly sales calls, profitability to name a few.
• What got you here, won’t get you there. Determine your end goal and what habits you’ll need to have that end goal.

PLUS, two valuable tips to get you putting the habits you need to achieve your goals and dreams, because you deserve to live your very best life.

Making the same decisions over and over again is hurting your productivity in more ways than you realize.

Would you ever go out to eat and place your order and then change your mind again and again. Eventually the wait staff would stand there waiting for you to choose. How much time are you wasting by remaking decisions?

“The victorious warrior decides first in his mind, then goes to battle, while the defeated warrior goes to battle first then seeks to win.” -Sun Tzu

Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode:

• How making decisions is similar to using a GPS or going to a restaurant
• What is decision fatigue and how to overcome it
• Stop looking outside of yourself and using others as your guide
• Building a successful business isn’t sexy

A picture is worth a 1000 words. How to use the power of imagery to move you closer to your goals. 

There’s something magical that happens when you picture in your mind a goal or desire you have for your life or business. Yes it feels good and fun to daydream about this….one day….but brain wise, this is a hack that shouldn’t be overlooked.

I dive into the brain science behind mental imagery and envisioning your goals and desires this week. 

Check out what you’ll learn:

• Results from an experiment done at the University of Chicago on it’s basketball team and how you can use this in your business.
• How mental imagery and visioning was my first step to overcome my shyness.
• Holding that vision mentally prepares you for when the opportunity arises. I share how this helped me in my healthcare career without even intentionally knowing it.
• How you can use this in your business to grow and scale with ease.

PLUS, I share the first steps in a popular question I get asked all the time about overcoming my shyness.
