How to Turn ChatGPT into your Personal Marketing Assistant with Alex Beyers

Imagine having a personal assistant who’s available 24/7, helping you generate marketing content, manage your schedule, and brainstorm new ideas—all without costing you a cent. That's what happened to Alex Beyers when she started using ChatGPT to run her business. At first, she approached it with caution, but before long, ChatGPT became her secret weapon for creating high-quality content at lightning speed.If you’re like many business owners who’ve tried ChatGPT and thought, “This is garbage,” you’re not alone. But the key, as Alex explains, lies in how you use it.Rather than treating ChatGPT like a robot that can magically solve all your problems, think of it as a new team member that needs training. It’s not just about getting it to create content, but about making it sound like your content. This is where most people get stuck—they skip the crucial step of training ChatGPT to understand their business, brand voice, and unique selling points. Think of it like hiring a new VA: if you don’t provide context, you’ll only get generic results.To learn more about how Alex uses ChatGPT to streamline her business and to hear all the in-depth tips she shared, tune in to the full episode of The Business Edit podcast. This could be the spark you need to level up your marketing without adding more to your plate!SHOW NOTES: jadeboyd.co/turn-chatgpt-into-your-personal-marketing-assistantLINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Alex's Instagram @alexbeyers.co Alex's AI CoursesUse code "Jade20" for 20% off anything in her AI suite - no expiration!

But simplicity doesn’t have to look like a Pinterest-worthy kitchen or making all your food from scratch. It’s about two key principles:Systemizing What’s Most Important: This means setting up systems for your personal health, relationships, home, and business so it doesn’t feel hard or complicated to show up for your daily life.Living at a Human Pace: It’s about enjoying your daily life in the season you’re in, not rushing through it constantly waiting for the “next season.”In this episode, I'm breaking down 4 must haves for simplifying your life, and how to make this hard, but worthwhile, lifestyle goal a reality.

Opting Out of Default Living: The Ultimate Form of Self Care

Are you even aware of all the ways that you're living your life by default? There's this thing called the "default effect" that shows us that we're more likely to choose options that are given to us as the default choices. And it makes sense, right?! Decision fatigue is real and we make around 35,000 decisions each day. Who can blame us for wanting to not think about a decision and go with the default option every now and then?But here's where default living becomes a problem... the decisions that are given to us as the default are not always aligned to the type of life or business that we want to build. And when we live too much of our lives by default, we start to feel the effects of living a bland life that doesn't light us up. In this episode, I'm sharing what it could look like for you to opt out of default living and live more intentionally, starting with three default decisions that I see many women opting into (and that are making them miserable). Press play to opt out, live differently, and gain the encouragement you need to make tough decisions that are more aligned to your ideal life.SHOW NOTES: jadeboyd.co/opting-out-of-default-livingLINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Ep. 043: Simplify your Life with Categorical Decision MakingSimplify your Life MembershipThe Business Edit™ Coaching Program CONNECT WITH JADEWebsiteInstagramJoin My Email List LEVEL UP YOUR BUSINESS + PRODUCTIVITYOrganize your Business Digital CourseThe Business Edit™ Coaching ProgramFREE RESOURCESFREE Double your Profit While Working Less MasterclassFREE Task Batching WorkbookFREE Weekly Review ChecklistThe Business Minimalist Blueprint WorkbookThe Business Minimalist Podcast Archive

How to Find Clarity when You're Spinning in Indecision

This week, I'm bringing you a special conversation with my friend Haley Thomas from the Passion Pursuit Podcast. You may remember Haley from episode 021, where she brought her expertise on building out a retreat offer to the podcast. Recently, I sat down with Haley to talk about ways that you can find clarity when you're spinning in indecision. If you find yourself overthinking things, spending too much time analyzing your choices, or just feeling stuck, this episode is for you. As a recovering perfectionist, and someone who loves data, I've learned the hard way that spinning in indecision is not productive. It's better to make the wrong decision quickly (and learn from it quickly) than to waste time trying to come up with the perfect solution.

Plan a Productive Week in 5 Minutes or Less

What comes to mind when you think of a 'weekly planning routine'? Do you envision someone sitting down in a quiet space for an hour, thoughtfully detailing a minute by minute plan for their entire week?

And the good news is you can become a really effective planner, even if you only have 5 minutes in between meetings, naps, or errands.When you enter your week with a clear plan in place, you eliminate a lot of unnecessary stress, set yourself up to focus on what actually matters in your business, and put yourself back in the drivers seat of your life.

My Simple CEO Day Checklist

If you're struggling to make consistent progress on your business goals, you may be overdue for a CEO Day. A CEO Day is a monthly day set aside for you to reflect on what’s happening in your business and make intentional, strategic decisions about how to move forward. I almost think of this like a self-care practice for business owners, because when you're able to set aside time to plan out each month intentionally, you can enter each week knowing exactly what to focus on to grow your business. It makes pursuing big goals as a business owner more straightforward, less stressful, and more fun! Every business is different, which means every CEO Day will look different too. That's why I've created a free guide to help you design your own CEO Day checklist using the 3-step process I lay out in this episode.

Balancing Full-time Travel, Family, and Business with Brooke Happe

Brooke Happe is a mom of three who stepped away from her career as a Doctor of Physical Therapy to follow her heart to stay home with her kids.

Procrastination Hacks + How to Take More Action as a Business Owner

So much of running a business is showing up for mundane tasks that aren't exciting. Results don't come instantly they come with consistency.

So how can we, as business owners who need to show up and get things done in order to grow our business, consistently show up for our business and get things done without falling into the pitfall of procrastination? And procrastination is something that we ALL struggle with on one form or another. And in order to overcome your unique procrastination habits, you first have to understand why you're procrastinating.

How I'm Planning for Maternity Leave as a Business Owner

Recently, I was reading a book about how to create a business that runs itself, and the author challenged his readers to create a business that would let them take a 12 week sabbatical.

As a service provider, it can be so hard to imagine being able to take 12 weeks off while returning to a business that isn't burning to the ground, but I want you to know that it's entirely possible with some planning and preparation.

How to Know if your Business is Ready to Scale

"Am I ready to scale my business?" This is a question I get a lot because there are so many misconceptions about what it takes to scale a business. I mean, you don't want to dive into something you're not ready for and risk falling flat on your face, right?

Unpopular Opinion: The Harder you Work the Less you Make

I grew up on a farm in the midwest, so I'm very familiar with the "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" mentality, and I don't shy away from doing work that's hard. HOWEVER, and this is a big however, we do not live in the time economy anymore. In the time economy, the more hours you put in, the more money you make. This was the height of the industrial revolution and where we got the lovely 40 hour work week. But now, we live in a knowledge economy, where it doesn't matter how many hours you work. You get paid for the value that you bring to the table, and this is true for many 9-5 jobs but also for freelancers and service providers.And yet, so many of us still fall into the trap of believing that in order to reach our goals, business or otherwise, we better work hard or else. It seems almost sacrilegious to say that working hard isn't something to be valued since our society puts so much emphasis on it, but there will come a point in your business or really any area of your life where working harder won't help you get better results. Everything has a tipping point, and the law of diminishing returns applies to this situation as well.I don't think we stop often enough to ask ourselves, "how could this be easier?" because we assume and prematurely accept that it's going to be hard. And today, I want to share why I believe that working hard won't help you make more money in your business as a service provider. In fact, I strongly believe that the least effort your business requires of you, the more successful you'll ultimately be. It seems counterintuitive at first, but I hope to change your mind!SHOW NOTES: jadeboyd.co/the-harder-you-work-the-less-you-make/LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Episode 19: Is the 40 Hour Work Week Really Productive?Effortless, by Greg McKeownEpisode 66: Are Your Services Priced to Scale?Episode 34: How to Align your Business to your Strengths with Arica Ohloff CONNECT WITH JADEWebsiteInstagramJoin My Email List LEVEL UP YOUR BUSINESS + PRODUCTIVITYOrganize your Business Digital CourseThe Business Edit™ Coaching ProgramFREE RESOURCESFREE Double your Profit While Working Less MasterclassFREE Task Batching WorkbookFREE Weekly Review...

How I Deal with Stress and Anxiety as a Business Owner

I recently read that as many as one in three entrepreneurs struggle with depression and burnout and 95% of entrepreneurs are unsure of how to achieve a healthy work-life balance. Here's why this is so important: when we don't manage and address stress in our life, it will inevitably lead to burnout. You can't sweep your stress under the rug and hope it goes away. You have to learn how to manage your stress levels if you want to build a sustainable business.In a recent podcast episode, 4 Business Lessons I've Learned the Hard Way, I mentioned that I've recently noticed how much of an impact stress has on my business. Over the past 6 months, I've been focussing on reducing stress triggers and learning how to process unavoidable stress.

The Quarterly Business Reset: How to Reach your Annual Business Goals Faster

One of the reasons why I think so many business owners struggle to hit their annual goals is because they don't take the time to break them down into bite-sized chunks. At the beginning of the year, they get excited and motivated and create the big pretty map, but then they shove it in a drawer and don't take it out because actually taking action on those goals feels overwhelming.This is why I'm so passionate about quarterly planning. Focussing one one quarter at a time can help you break down your big goals into more managable bite-sized chunks and be more realistic about what you actually have time to do during the next 90 days. It also eliminates the procrastination trap that many business owners fall into when they're constantly reassessing what they should be focussed on each month, week, or day. If you look at a huge list of projects and goals every day, it can feel absolutely paralyzing. It makes it easier to say, "I'll get to that later, there's plenty of time." But in reality, the only way to make progress on your goals is one tiny baby step at a time. If you can separate deciding what to do from the time and place you actually do those things, it will be easier for you to slide into execution mode, stop overthinking things, and just get things done.Today, I'm sharing a simple 5-step process that you can use each and every quarter to have a mini business reset and get clear on the projects and tasks you need to prioritize to reach your business goals.SHOW NOTES: jadeboyd.co/how-to-reach-your-annual-business-goals-faster/ LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Quarterly Business ResetMy Printable Wall Calendars CONNECT WITH JADEWebsiteInstagramJoin My Email List LEVEL UP YOUR BUSINESS + PRODUCTIVITYOrganize your Business Digital CourseThe Business Edit™ Coaching ProgramFREE RESOURCESFREE Double your Profit While Working Less MasterclassFREE Task Batching WorkbookFREE Weekly Review ChecklistThe Business Minimalist Blueprint WorkbookThe Business Minimalist Podcast ArchiveMentioned in this episode:Download the CEO Day ChecklistDownload the free CEO Day Checklist at https://www.jadeboyd.co/ceoday.

Build your Business off Social Media and Do THIS Instead

One of my top five strengths is "Learner", and I love learning about business and marketing. Recently the YouTube algorithm served up a video about building your sales funnel, and I clicked to watch. This video was riddled with tech jargon, affiliate advertisements for paid software platforms, and really complex paid advertising recommendations. For most business owners, this kind of advice on building a sales funnel isn't helpful. It's just overwhelming and demotivating. But I want you to know that building a sales funnel that converts and books out your services doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. You can create an evergreen, organic sales funnel that helps you book your services on auto-pilot without the stress and tech jargon. Today, I'm sharing my 5-step sales funnel framework, and a roadmap for building your business without the social media hustle this year.SHOW NOTES: jadeboyd.co/build-your-business-off-social-media/LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Episode 62: Simple Sells – Clarify These 5 Things to Simplify and Streamline your Marketing StrategyFloDeskZenDesk StudyThriveCartOrganize your Business CourseEpisode 054: I Quit Dubsado: Here’s What I’m Doing InsteadThe Business Edit coaching programEpisode 041: 6 Reasons People Buy and How to Build an Evergreen Marketing Strategy CONNECT WITH JADEWebsiteInstagramJoin My Email List LEVEL UP YOUR BUSINESS + PRODUCTIVITYOrganize your Business Digital CourseThe Business Edit™ Coaching ProgramFREE RESOURCESFREE Double your Profit While Working Less MasterclassFREE Task Batching WorkbookFREE Weekly Review ChecklistThe Business Minimalist Blueprint Workbook<a...

Take Real Vacations While Serving your Clients Well This Year - Here's How

If, when you stop working, you stop making money, then you are trading time for money. When you scale your business, you move away from trading time for money, and into creating VALUE for money. When your business is set up to scale, you can simultaneously deliver incredible value and an amazing experience to your clients even while you're unplugged, offline, or on vacation. In this episode, I want to give you some tangible tips for how you can take real time off as a service provider. Many clients come to me because they are in a time famine. They literally cannot imagine what it would look like to take a week off, let alone the month of December, or a full maternity leave. While you're building your business and perfecting your craft, trading time for money is just a part of the journey, and there's nothing wrong with that! But if you are desiring the type of business that does allow you to take real time off, and extended time off, without sacrificing your earning potential, then this episode is for you.SHOW NOTES: jadeboyd.co/take-real-vacationsLINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Episode 63: Double your Profit While Working Less - Here's HowEpisode 64: Do These 3 Things to Earn More and Work Less This YearAutomate with ZapierThe Business Edit™ Coaching Program CONNECT WITH JADEWebsiteInstagramJoin My Email List LEVEL UP YOUR BUSINESS + PRODUCTIVITYOrganize your Business Digital CourseThe Business Edit Coaching ProgramFREE RESOURCESFREE Task Batching WorkbookFREE Weekly Review ChecklistThe Business Minimalist Blueprint WorkbookThe Business Minimalist Podcast ArchiveMentioned in this episode:Download the CEO Day ChecklistDownload the free CEO Day Checklist at https://www.jadeboyd.co/ceoday.

Double your Profit While Working Less - Here's How

If you're digging into goal-setting for your business, you've come to the right place! When it comes to setting financial goals, I see so many business owners setting random goals based on what they think they "should" be making. But ultimately, this is not a good practice for growing your business, because your financial goals are as unique as your business! Who's to say if getting to $5k months or $10k months is actually going to help you pay yourself more? Who's to say when you get there that you won't just be working 60 hours a week or create a business you hate? That's why I have each of my coaching clients get super clear on their financial goals. I coach my clients to create profit-first financial goals that are centered around paying themselves more while also working less. Press play to learn a simple 2-step process for doubling your profit next year without sacrificing more of your time and energy.Before you dive into this episode, make sure you also grab my free masterclass, "Double your Profit While Working Less" which also includes the exact financial spreadsheet that I use with my coaching clients. In this masterclass, I'll show you step-by-step how to create and break down your financial goals so you can give yourself a raise while working shorter days and weeks.SHOW NOTES: https://jadeboyd.co/double-your-profit-while-working-less/LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Free masterclass: Double your Profit While Working LessThe Business Edit™ Coaching ProgramEpisode 47: Overcoming Shiny Object Syndrome CONNECT WITH JADEWebsiteInstagramJoin My Email List LEVEL UP YOUR BUSINESS + PRODUCTIVITYOrganize your Business Digital CourseThe Business Edit Coaching ProgramFREE RESOURCESFREE Task Batching WorkbookFREE Weekly Review ChecklistThe Business Minimalist Blueprint WorkbookThe Business Minimalist Podcast ArchiveMentioned in this episode:Download the CEO Day ChecklistDownload the free CEO Day Checklist at https://www.jadeboyd.co/ceoday.
