Send us a textBeing a CEO is exhausting when you’re always trying to keep up with the next big thing. When you work in the online space, it’s easy to feel like you’re drowning in a sea of new social media platforms, new launch techniques, and new ways to sell your product. But why do we think we need to reinvent the wheel? I’m all about keeping it simple - in life, and in business. I have a capsule wardrobe, my family meal preps many of the same meals each week (any other taco Tuesday people out there?), and I still use many of the same practices after 10 years of business! I get it - my methods don’t seem very exciting. But you know what is exciting? Weekly date nights with my husband. Being able to drop everything when my kids get sick. Taking an entire month off last year and letting my business run itself. This week on Promote Yourself to CEO, I’m giving you a preview of my upcoming three-part series, The Unsexy Secrets to Sustainable Success.

Send us a textLet me ask you, have you ever found yourself just hustling, hustling, hustling in your business? You feel like you're doing all the things to bring clients into your business, but you're just not seeing a steady flow of new potential clients who are ready to work with you. If your experience as an entrepreneur has been inconsistent clients and inconsistent cash flow, then I want you to keep watching because today we're going to talk about this significant leak that is happening in so many entrepreneur's businesses. This leak prevents those dream clients from becoming paying clients and the good news is once you understand what this leak is, it's simple to fix. Backstory: I was at an event not too long ago, and everybody got one of those enormous post-it note papers. The assignment at this event was to map out your business in the next 12 months. There were a couple of different sections everybody was filling out. They were filling out what they were offering, a lot of people had a lot of different offers going on. Multiple things they wanted to offer and sell, different products, programs, and services. They also had a section for your marketing plan. I started looking around the room at the marketing plan, and I realized everybody in this room has a leaky business and here's why; because their marketing plan was not working together. It was not working together. It was a smattering of tips, and tricks, and tactics but it wasn't putting the pieces together and making sure they led to your offers. Nothing was cohesive, and the minute I shared with them a different way to approach this, all the light bulbs went off. Most people when they sit down and write out a marketing plan, think about all of the activities they need to do. They need to have a newsletter, and they need to blog, they need to do a podcast, they need to be on social media There's no point of focus, and there's no consistency in what they're doing and making sure that it all works together.
