Do you ever feel like you’re on a hamster wheel … always running to keep things going, but never moving forward? This often comes from a lack of clarity. What just might be in order is a strategic day focused on things that really have the potential to grow your business for the long-haul. Let me show you how to use a business development day to get out of the CRAP (which is an acronym for the Cycle of Reactivity and Panic) so you can focus on things to grow your business for the long haul.

As we close out 2020 with a pandemic that doesn't appear to be ending anytime soon, it’s a good time to look at how we’re serving our clients and make sure the systems we whipped up to work with people remotely are actually getting the best possible results. 

In a prior episode, I introduced the idea of batching time each week for business development, where you step away from the day-to-day workings of your business to do the things that have the potential to grow your empire. 

Today, we’re going to dig into the importance of taking time for the creative/strategic side of your business (as opposed to tasks like client calls and last minute emails), and I’ll share a story of how business development days helped a client move from trading hours for dollars to selling a package that took her to over $100K a year. 

I’m going to walk you through the 3 key areas of growing and scaling a service-based business, and I’ll explain exactly what you should - and should not - do on your business development day. Plus, I’ll share a fun exercise to help you understand the value you provide, and make sure your offer is designed to give people the results they expect. 

Listen in and find out how to plan your own business development strategy to close the year out strong and prepared for the year ahead.
