Unapologetic

There's one question that I get the most from clients and it's definitely not what you would expect. 

It's nothing to do with strategy or systems or sales...

It has to do with all the conditioning that has been ingrained in many of us.

You'd think that having your own business where you get to call the shots and 'do what you want' would be easy - yet it's one of the things I find that has many people questioning themselves and what you're doing and if you're doing it 'right'.

Looking for permission and wanting to please everyone, even if it doesn't totally make sense for you want... 

This comes up every week in conversations with clients and friends of mine. It's something I've had to work through and still have to make sure I catch myself and say: 

Yes. It is ok. 

To make a decision on a business model that I want. Just because that's what feels best to me. 

To set my hours when they are because that's what works for me and my family. 

To offer free calls because I like doing them (and they work for my business) and not care what anyone else might be doing. 

It's all ok for you too. 

I'd love to hear your thoughts after you listen! 

I'm offering 20 (!!!) FREE Recurring Revenue Strategy sessions this month and I'd love to connect with you and help you combine strategy and systems to build the recurring revenue in your business!

Today is all about data! It's something I'm obsessed with looking at and using to make better decisions for both myself in business and my clients. 

Just like funnels, data can be as simple or complicated as you make it. 

I'm going to go through some average data rates, which I think will give a lot of perspective when you look at your data, and things you can look at for content, landing pages, emails, and the one thing that surprised me (and has saved me a ton of time) by tracking where my leads and traffic are coming from! 

I'd love to hear your thoughts after you give the episode a listen!

It's my birthday today and one year of podcasting!!! 

I'm sharing the biggest lesson I've learned that relates to both life and business and it's something that has helped me achieve what I have in my life and continue to go after what I want. 

I'm also talking about the goals I have for both personally and for my business for the next year. 

I think it's an interesting conversation in a lot of ways because it was actually hard for me to come up with the personal goals and I talk a bit about why. 

The business goals were 'easier' but I'm giving myself a really stretchy one but saying it out loud to hold myself accountable to do what I know I need to, to reach it! 

I'd love to hear your thoughts, your goals, takeaways, whatever comes up after you listen!

Today is all about one of my favourite email platforms - ConvertKit, now Kit. 

This was the platform I used for years before I switched to ShinePages and many of my clients now use as well. I'm going over why I love it (for the most part), one thing they really need to improve, and giving you the info you need to know to decide if ConvertKit would be a platform you'd want to check out for yourself! 

I'm talking features and pricing compared to other platforms, automations and sequences, the ability to migrate to ConvertKit if you're on another platform and want to move over, the dashboards and how easy it is to track your data, and how it integrates with other platforms and why this is really important! 

I'd love to hear your thoughts once you listen!

This is the process that I ALWAYS go through with clients so they can not only hit their income goals but also make sure they are setting up their business to support their life first. 

If you want time freedom and have a big income goal, this is how you can do it because pushing yourself to burnout is NOT the vibe or the only way. 

I'd love to hear if this helped shift your thoughts on setting up your business and how you can incorporate the balance (I know we hate that word...but you can make it happen) you started your business to have. 

Check out the info here to join us in Impact, my 6-month Hybrid Group Program! 

You'll receive the business support to scale and reach your definition of success, as well as be surrounded by a community of likeminded women who want to not only make money, but a difference in the world.

I have a bit of a different topic today for WTF Wednesday. 

I wanted to talk about AI - ChatGPT, AI pictures, and what seems to be a newer 'trend' - which I hope is not actually a trend and goes away - coaching bots. 

We're starting with the tame and more 'normal' side of this interesting topic and ending with the complete f*ckery, which, I hate to say is pretty in line with the timeline we're in. 

Enjoy and I'd love to hear your thoughts on AI as well, especially the 'new trend' which we'll all hope will be ending soon.

This is the episode for you if just hearing the word 'funnel' makes you cringe... 

I actually LOVE talking about funnels and helping people set them up! So often they are way overcomplicated and today I'm going to simplify it right down and make it make sense. 

I'm talking about launch funnels vs evergreen funnels, how they save you a ton of time when you have them set up properly, the data they can give you so you can understand what's going on in your business, and more! 

I'd love to hear your takeaways after you listen!

This is something that if I would have heard this maybe even a year ago, I would have rolled my eyes SO HARD. 

Like yeah right. Get the f*ck out of here. 

Sales aren't easy. 

But here's the thing - when I really thought about it, and I've been thinking about a lot of different things in my business lately, they are and the truth is, the way I "make sales" has been easy. 

I also come at this and bring up these topics from a much different angle than just telling you 'sales are easy'.  That would be ridiculous to make that statement and leave it at that. 

But I do think a lot of the time we are making this so much harder than it really needs to be. 

I have a couple good mindset shifts for you, as well as tangible tips that will help you with making your own sales process so much more simple and 'easy'.

In a world where you feel like your choices are being limited, you don't know how to make an impact or what would make a difference - it's not about looking to change all the things at the top where we have no control. 

It's looking at what's right in front of us and how we can come together and support each other because right now, they can't take that away. 

And it's going to be the thing that makes the difference.

Today I'm spilling the coffee on one of my favourite platforms, ShinePages, and joining me is the founder, Robin Newberry! 

We're diving into all the features ShinePages has to offer as an all-in-one website, the ease of use (which is HUGE compared to other platforms that I've worked on), affordability, and their amazing customer service. And while all that sounds great (because it is) we also discuss the importance of knowing which platform is right for YOUR business, because although we both obviously love ShinePages, it isn't necessarily the platform for everyone. 

Make sure you stick around until the end because Robin also shares some exciting updates coming soon! 

We'd love to hear your thoughts and if you have any questions about ShinePages, don't hesitate to reach out! 

You can check out the platform for yourself here:
