If You Want a Thriving Online Business, You Must Get Crazy Good at These Three Things EP197


Three things you must get crazy good at to build a successful online business.

If you have followed me for a while, you know that I love keeping everything I teach simple and straightforward. We have enough things in life that make our brains hurt, like spreadsheets, taxes, and annoying people!!!

In my 12 years as a mostly digital based entrepreneur, I have made more mistakes than I can count. Many of them would have been easily avoided if I had someone like me kindly yet bluntly saying, “ Girl don’t do that,” “Watch out, I tried that four times and it doesn’t work,” “Sis you may want to approach that in a different way.”

But back then business coaching wasn’t a thing, there was Tony Robbins and Zig Ziglar CD sets (which of course I listened to all of them), and there certainly wasn’t a female business coach sharing her wisdom.

ProjectME with Tiffany Carter is my way of providing all of you dream chasers, ambitious, multi-passionate, and service-centered women the support, encouragement and practical guidance you need to achieve your goals smoother, faster, and much easier than I did.

To have that thriving online business you so badly desire, you have got to get dang good at three things, and they aren’t what you expect:

  1. Identifying and processing your emotions. In order for you to attract your ideal client, you MUST connect with them on a deep emotional level. You can’t do that unless you are able to deeply connect with your own feelings. Most people blow this part off because they don’t realize how important it is, and it super uncomfortable to feel your feelings, if you spent most of your life trying to stuff them (like I did).
  2. Cutting out distractions. When we aren’t sure of what the heck we are doing (which BTW no one ever really is), we can get caught up in studying other people’s businesses, their content, their books, their videos, their pricing, their style, and so on. Then you end up creating a brand and offerings that aren’t unique to you, and therefor nothing converts into cash. Stay in your lane, force yourself to put blinders on, trust your intuition, and spend more time consistently creating than consuming.
  3. Writing marketing and social copy that connects. For online-based businesses, and brick and mortar lead generators (ie. blogs, social media, websites), written content paired with captivating visuals is what converts to clients. Even if you have the money to pay a top copywriter, you will blow a ton of cash, and waste a bunch of time, if you don’t learn how to convey the voice of YOUR brand, YOURSELF first. How can you expect a talented stranger to capture the essence of your brand and ideal client’s emotions, if you haven’t done that already?

Ep 818 The “Everything Is Going to Shit” Crash Out: How I Handle It in Real Time

What do you do when everything seems to go wrong at once, and you have absolutely no idea how it’s all going to work out?

I was supposed to release a completely different episode today. It was already recorded. Everything was planned. Then I woke up to some major fucking bullshit…followed almost immediately by more bullshit.

So I scrapped the plan and hit record while I was still in it.

This isn’t an episode about resilience from the other side, when everything has worked out and you can package the experience into a beautiful lesson. I’m taking you behind the scenes of how I handle stress, uncertainty, business setbacks and unexpected life problems in REAL TIME, before I know the outcome.

Because when multiple things go wrong at once, your brain loves to take individual problems and turn them into one giant story:
Everything is falling apart.

Wealth expert and creator of The Quantum Woman™ framework Shamina Taylor joins Tiffany for a deeply honest conversation about what a quantum leap actually looks like in real life, including the part nobody wants to talk about: the breakdown before the breakthrough.

Shamina takes us inside her own quantum crash-out, when the successful life she had built began crumbling and forced her to confront what achievement, logic and pushing harder could no longer fix. What came next required emotional healing, identity work, learning to trust the unseen, and completely changing her relationship with money, success and herself.

Ep 816 Why Do You Procrastinate When You KNOW What to Do?

You know you need to post the content, talk about your offer, hire the help, make the investment, have the conversation, or finally start the thing you’ve been thinking about for months.

You’ve researched it. Planned it. Journaled about it. Asked ChatGPT 47 different ways. And you’re still not taking action.

This isn’t a motivation or discipline problem. And it definitely doesn’t mean you’re lazy.

Procrastination and self-sabotage can be automatic stress responses designed to protect you from what taking action might expose you to: failure, rejection, judgment, uncertainty, visibility, and even success.
