One of the ironic things about starting your own business with the intention of working less and experiencing more flexibility to enjoy life is that we find ourselves doing the exact opposite. We as business owners tend to work too much, overextend ourselves with too many clients and too many services. In the end, our businesses don’t serve our lives in the way that we originally planned.

The biggest reason for this is because we believe in the lie that if we want to get better results, we have to do more. That’s not the case. One of the best ways that we can start to simplify and streamline our businesses so that we can achieve that freedom and flexibility in our lives are to simplify what we offer with fewer products and services.

And that’s what today’s podcast guest, Ashley Gartland, is talking about in the episode. Ashley is a small business mentor and coach who helps business owners simplify and streamline their businesses so they can scale sustainably and run a business that deeply serves their life. She’ll be walking us through:

• How to know when you are ready to streamline your offers
• Designing services not just for the financial return but for the life that you want to live
• How streamlining can actually help you get more and better clients if your bookings are slow
