Things I Wish I knew in my First Five Years of being an Entrepreneur EP154


Things I wish I knew in my first 5 years of entrepreneurship.

You guys, I was an entrepreneur long before it was cool, and before this whole #bossbabe thing, and #womensupportingwomen movement.

When I made the decision to start a side-hustle business and then quit my prestigious career in pharmaceuticals 11 years ago, I had one person professionally who believed in me, and one person personally.

Most everyone thought I was nuts to leave a high paying and high profile corporate career for a dream and a gamble. What they didn’t understand is that I had to, I couldn’t do the corporate grind and ladder climb anymore. I would rather had been a coffee barista then continue in that environment. Can anyone relate?

Those first five years in business were insane. It was the blind leading the blind, which left me making many mistakes, costing me tens of thousands of dollars, countless nights of sleep, and me contemplating quitting at least once a week.

This is why I’m so passionate about coaching all of you on how to make the money and impact you desire, doing what you love in a much smoother and more efficient way.

To help you avoid some of the big mistakes I made, listen to this episode, trust me you will save yourself thousands of dollars and thousands of hours just by listening.

Ep 830 3 Things to Do This Month to Get More People Buying From Your Online Business | 30-Day Online Sales Sprint: Part 1

You’re creating content, talking about your offers, showing up online, and doing what you’ve been told will grow your business—but the sales still aren’t matching the amount of effort you’re putting in.

So what do you actually need to focus on if you want to get more customers and increase online sales without adding even more to your plate?
That’s what we’re tackling in Part 1 of my 30-Day Online Sales Sprint.

Instead of giving you another giant list of marketing strategies to try, I’m narrowing it down to three things to focus on for the next 30 days. Because when sales slow down, one of the biggest mistakes online business owners make is assuming they need to do MORE: more content, more platforms, more offers, more posting.

Before you add anything, you need to understand where the actual breakdown is happening between someone discovering your business and eventually paying you.
