Sometimes it may feel like as soon as you get going a million issues pop up.

The one step forward, two steps back is real.

One of the most common terms I hear come out of the mouth of women in business is, "I got distracted!"

Let's deal with the D word, shall we!

The biggest issue I see with entrepreneurs is the expectation of hope on a sales call.

Aside from the fact, there is a strategic flow to a sales call you should feel the same way you do on a blind date. If this doesn't go right I am not dating this dude.

Yes, you should pre-screen but the ultimate screening happens on the call. Women who go into it knowing they can say no, show up with a different level of confidence.

Raise your expectation. They could say BUT

YOU COULD SAY NO TOO!

Ladies we are dominating. We are entering the entrepreneurial space fast but we are falling off even faster.

You have to respect the rules of engagement if you want to last. Time to put the business hat on.

You must have a short and a long game strategy!

Maintaining clients and getting new ones is going to require you to be present and visible. Yes, you need to get out there and ask for the sale but some of you will fail because you have no social proof. In other words no social presence. It isn't about posting every day.

It is about working a system until you master it.

BTW

When I say master it, I mean make money with it.

I know you want as much exposure as possible. I know you want to look like a team player. But real talk, you can't team up with someone when your shit isn't together. Learn to stand on your own two feet.

Otherwise, your collaboration may become your cancer!

As a coach, I live by this phrase, "The advice I give you is no better than the information you supply me with!"

Who are talking to when you need help!

How are you responding when someone needs your help?

Be careful someone's life is on the line.

I know you want to expand your business. Perhaps you should slow down and tighten up the experience.

I am from the "Old School", customer service matters. Create "raving fans" and you won't have to work so hard to get the word out on the street.

The title speaks for itself.

WARNING: I am in full rant mode!

Standing out as an Entrepreneur has its challenges!

What is/are the unique things about you that will cause people to hire you?

Yes, you need to show up on social media. It isn't about how long you are on. It is about what you are doing when you are.

Some days you may do nothing, but you need to have a consistent presence. You must stay at the top of mind if you want people to remember you and then ultimately feel comfortable connecting with you to work with you!
