It's true I grew my coaching business to 6 figures in a year (actually 13 months but who's counting!).
Talking about my money isn't my favourite thing, I'm all about creating businesses you love, that love you back, which I call feeling #litupandliberated.
But these things do go hand in hand and I know you LOVE learning the exact decisions I made that had the biggest impact.
Now I've shared lists like this before, but this one is different. Because I want to tell you the reasons behind the reasons, I was able to grow my coaching business this fast.
READY?!
1.
ME: Within days of walking out of my corporate career I quit drinking. I knew that for me, drinking was creating self loathing AND diminishing my ability to think clearly. I honestly don't believe my business would have grown as quickly if I'd been stuck in this self sabotaging behaviour.
YOU: Is there any area of your life where you're self sabotaging? If there is and it's limiting your success, now is the time to address it.
2.
ME: My success came when I truly listened to what people in my audience wanted from me.....which turned out to be business coaching (rather than wellbeing consulting or health coaching). The super awesome part of this is that business coaching has totally become my passion!
YOU: Are you so busy chasing what you think is the right thing, that you're missing opportunities to step into your true calling? It's always a good idea to listen hard and then listen even harder....
3.
ME: Putting my prices up, even though it made me feel sick in the stomach. In the first year of my coaching business, my prices increased by 50% twice. This does come back to feeling worthy, and only came because I was getting excellent support (coaching) through this journey and doing the inner work.
YOU: Are you treating pricing with fear? Do you truly believe you are worthy of premium pricing? What would it have to take for you to have total confidence in your value? Do the work.
4.
ME: I behaved 'as if' I was successful before I was. I told myself my success was inevitable. Rather than discounting positive feedback from clients, I celebrated it. When my self belief was on the low side, I reminded myself WHY I chose to take the leap into entrepreneurship. I used (and use) affirmations every single day putting words out into the universe that I'm a huge success.
YOU: What behaviours do you make a HABIT to keep you on track and working towards your WHY, even on the hard days?
5:
ME: I ran my money dry AND then swallowed my pride and asked help (thanks family). Rather than finding a J.O.B. I DECIDED that regardless of my short term cash flow challenge I was in it for the long haul. Pride be damned.
YOU: Do not take this literally! The message here is this....being a successful entrepreneur isn't for the feint of heart. It takes waking up EVERY DAY and deciding you're going to keep doing it, despite the overwhelming discomfort. DECIDE. And don't let pride be a barrier to your success.
I believe it's valuable to you that my success in building my business is recent. That I only stepped into the business coaching niche 10 months ago. Because everything I teach is fresh, current AND has led me here.
That's why I'm so confident that if you're ready to create momentum in your business, booking an application call for my mastermind is the right move. And by the way it's a good thing if you feel ill about it, because "when you pay you pay attention".
And, while the number one reason for you to join us is business growth, I wanted to share what is on my heart today.
You get to pick my brain about your specific business, your BS limiting beliefs and be held to account on taking action.....for 12 full weeks.
Fast forward to May 2021, and imagine how this will impact your business.
