It can be the first thing you think about in the morning and the last thing on your mind before you go to bed. Whether things are going great or not so well… running a business can often feel “all-consuming”.

Then squeeze in all the other commitments you have on top of that...

You can be forgiven for feeling like there’s very little space for YOU.

But (and here’s something I’ve had to learn from experience) the very thing that determines the level of success your business can reach is… YOU.

There is something very specific that YOU can do now to start to see more success and growth.

It starts with taking time AWAY from your business and is one of the most important things you can do to succeed.

In this episode, I’ll show you...

• How taking time away from your business could be the best way for you to have more success, even if right now you’re scrambling to get things done in all the hours you’re already putting into the business
• Why one of the BEST investments I’ve ever made is finding ways I can take myself out of working IN my business so I can get the space to work ON my business… and that begins with resetting, recharging and re-imagining what’s next.
• What to do if you are at a crossroads and really needing some direction in your business.
• How moving at high-speed (ad sometimes with some chaos) toward our goals, to that next big thing on the horizon, without stopping to evaluate could lead us to a destination that we don’t want
• How women like you are finding they are having their best year ever, after actually getting away from the day to day of their business

What I’ve found coaching women for over 26 years is that the mistake business owners make over and over again is that they are too general in three business areas. Unfortunately, being too general moves you in the opposite direction to your goals of more clients and a more profitable business.

What are three specific focus areas that can help your sales go up and the pressure down?

That’s what we cover in this episode.

When you get specific about these three areas, you make more sales, and the pressure comes down, reducing the overwhelm and stress of running a business — which is a great thing.

So, let’s dive into these three areas:

1. Your ideal client — the customers you love to work with and that you are best suited to help
2. Your plan — what you DO in your business on a daily, weekly, monthly etc. basis that keeps you focused and moving towards your goals
3. Your message — how you describe what you do in a way that compels people to want to do business with you, refer you and help you grow your business.

You’ll hear how being specific about your ideal client, your plan and your message helps you reach more people and get new clients while reducing the overwhelm and feeling like you’re spinning plates and not keeping up.

And you’ll hear about the one thing we got specific about that made us stronger and more profitable as a business.

Do you ever feel like your business COULD grow if only you would stop doing ALL the things? 

In today's episode, you'll meet HerBusiness Network member Julia Watts.

Julia is the CEO of Australia's Leading Pattern Making Business — Sample Room.

She has been part of our network for over a year and recently joined our Marketing Success Mastermind.

Julia has a sizeable business that she's been growing consistently over many years.

In this interview, she takes us through the trajectory of:

• Starting
• Growing
• Plateauing
• Scaling

… her business from zero to a seven-figure business.

She also talks us through the mental shifts she took to step into the CEO role and let go of the tasks that kept her busy with unimportant work.

You'll hear Julia explain that while she's not afraid of setting and hitting financial goals, letting go of roles that she'd outgrown in her business proved a little more challenging than she thought.

You'll see why even if they're wearing all the hats at the moment and they're feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, you too can start to let go and thrive in your business.

• Episode 182 - Why People Say Yes. A Conversation on Influence with Dr Robert Cialdini

• Hey there, If right now:

  • You feel like you're a little bit away from your financial goals
  • You've been knocking on the door of that six-figure business (but it seems like no-ones home)
  • You've been at six figures for a while, and you haven't quite worked out how to get to the next level or sustainably run your business.

  Then you're going to enjoy this episode.

  I walk you through the three-step roadmap for finally having breakthrough growth in your business — without burnout or stress.

  Each stage of business requires a different area of focus if you want to create a healthy foundation of success.

  You need to know WHAT to focus on to maximise momentum in the short-term and set yourself up for the long-term.

  This episode is a must-listen episode for you if you want to:

  • Stop "throwing a bunch of spaghetti at the wall" hoping something will stick and instead know where to focus and what to do next.
  • Get out of working IN the business so much so that you can work ON a clear plan to grow your ideal business.
  • Grow a business that's thriving. That feels easy and light. One where you are not overwhelmed, but instead, you feel full of joy for what you're doing. One where you're not burned out, but you're in a state of flow.
  • Go from feeling confused about how to do more (when you have NO time left to do more) to having an abundance of time for the right things.

  And, join me for our upcoming The Road to a 6 & 7-Figure Business workshop on 14 March.

  • Episode 181 - Why People Say Yes. A Conversation on Influence with Dr Robert Cialdini

If you avoid sounding salesy or pushy, so you don't speak up about your business — this episode is for you. Every day I see women missing out on new clients because they don't know how to speak up about their business. So, they:

• Post on social media hoping that people will look, comment and buy
• Spend a ton of money on a website, but we don't have the traffic, so the site doesn't do the job of converting visitors into clients.
• They are left paying for ads to promote courses, lead magnets, online challenges… and burning a hole in their pockets.

In this episode, I'm giving you access to the secret sauce that has helped so many of our HerBusiness Network members get new clients and ultimately grow more profitable, sustainable businesses without the overwhelm and without having to spend a dollar.

When you use this four-part system, you'll be in the perfect position to land your next client without it feeling awkward trying to explain what you do or speaking up to let people know about your excellent products or services.

And, join me for our upcoming Get New Clients Coaching Week from 7-11 March 2022.

I'll coach you through my go-to blueprint for landing your next client without having to cold call; even if you don't have an email list, you find it hard to explain what you do, or you find yourself backing away from asking for the sale.

Click here to join me at Coaching Week.

By the end of this coaching week, you'll know how to find the right people and speak confidently about your business without feeling like you're being salesy.
