“If you’re not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late.” -Reid Hoffman, Founder of LinkedIn

There is so much wisdom in that statement and words to live by. Every product or program you put out into the world will never be perfect when you look at it through the lens of years later. So many things will change for you in your business, technology and even your hair style.

The best thing you can do is embrace the fact that perfection is a form of fear and holding you back from putting your work out there.

I share a funny story of my first speaker sizzle reel that was filmed in my living room.

Repetition is the secret to learning and getting known.

You might be wondering what else can you talk about, how to explain what you do or how do I keep making the same offer. If you’re feeling like a broken record, good because you should. Your ideal prospects need to hear your message on repeat before they take the next step and hire you.

Check out what you’ll learn:

• Why you need to be repeating yourself over and over again to get known (Big companies do this all the time.)
• A funny story from my healthcare days-a story on repeat. When you tell the same story you get really really good at telling that story. Same with your messaging.
• Repeating yourself eliminates confusing your audience.
• If you don’t yet have a message, I’ll share a tip to craft yours.

PLUS, how repeating yourself will actually make your sales calls easy and hear yes!

What does it really take to grow an online business? Today’s special guest will share her secrets to how she did it and you can too.

Kim Argetsinger is a mindset coach + business mentor with a mission to help you create your version of success and make more money doing what you love.

Through private one-on-one coaching, Kim helps heart-centered, passion-driven entrepreneurs, creatives, and coaches transform their business from the inside-out so they build, grow, and scale a business they're wildly in love with that also makes them bank.

Kim's built her own successful, multi six-figure business with consistent five-figure cash months (with ads or complicated funnels and has been around the coaching and business block. She holds a BA in Psychology with honors from the University of Miami, is a Mentor Masterclass Certified Life Coach, and has been featured as an expert and coach on numerous podcasts, webinars, interviews, and live events (back when the world was open).

More importantly, Kim loves supporting her clients to help them get (and stay) out of their own way and create their own SIMPLE process (no one-size-fits-all formulas over here) for achieving and sustaining epic business results (we're talking everything from booking first paying clients ever, to getting fully booked with a waitlist, selling out programs, and hitting record breaking income months like $10k, $20k, and even $100k months.)

Kim's obsessed with how the brain works, all things mindset, business psychology, a relationship-based approach to marketing, heart-centered sales, taking up space like a boss, and essentialism (doing less better). She believes there's nothing more powerful than combining clarity, mindset, strategy, and aligned action when it comes to business success.

Kim's also an ex-actress who started over in Manhattan (if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere, right?), an introverted-extrovert, coffee, green juice, AND wine lover, who believes a good sweat sesh can cure most things.

That’s exactly what my guest, very good friend and fellow Mastermind #Millie, Elise Danielle thinks.

Enjoy this candid conversation with tips and permission to stop chasing your tail and actually make money doing what you love. 

Here’s a little bit about Elise:

Elise is a big-hearted rebel mentor that’s here to help you generate real results by following what aligns with your passion and purpose. 

She's officially a business mentor and success coach, a podcaster and dog lover who's obsessed with supporting driven women to create businesses that ooze with profit and purpose so that they can create the impact and lifestyle they crave.

She's been able to scale her business to multiple 6 Figures in just 24 months without doing almost anything we’re ‘taught’ to do, has supported dozens of women to scale successfully and is determined to spread the good word that you get to create a wildly successful booked out business without doing all the things (especially the things you hate!)
