In life most of us do everything we can to avoid hard things. We want our lives to be easy, full of sunshine and rainbows and we are upset that the world hands us lemons. However, without the lemons in our lives, we would never be able to make lemonade. As entrepreneurs, we did not pick the easy path. We did not pick the safe path. We chose to go out on our own and build something for ourselves and our families. We walked away from the safety net and risked everything. We have to realize that it is not going to be easy and we are going to face hard things but those hard things are going to forge us into the successful entrepreneurs we want to be.

As business owners, we like to talk about our strengths and what makes us better than all of our competitors, but this week we want you to discover your kryptonite!

Today we are going to talk about a funnel that we have used to create a multi-million dollar business for ourselves and we have used it for thousands of our clients to help them double, triple, and even quadruple their business. We call this funnel the Growth Funnel.

The life of an entrepreneur is difficult. It can be filled with long hours and lonely nights putting in the work to turn a profit. Putting in the grind over time can create subconscious habits of ignoring the rest of the world and putting our business first. Sometimes we need to stop, take a breath, and remember why we started the business in the first place.

Last week we talked about Just Getting Started and a lot of our listeners needed to hear that to motivate them to take that first step in their business. Today we are going to take the opposite approach and focus on the last step.  In our society, we tend to look at everything in a linear way and we start with point A and work our way to point Z. However, sometimes we need to start with point Z or the End Goal and work our way backward.

Too many new entrepreneurs are so focused on the end goal that they never actually get started. When you focus on the end result it can become overwhelming. This leads to people procrastinating and often never moving forward, out of fear of failure, or lack of direction. Sometimes all you have to do is just take the first step.

Every human being wakes up with an expectation.  When people get LESS than what they expect, they are unhappy. When people get EXACTLY what they expect, they are satisfied. When people get MORE than what they expect, they are happy. There isn't really any "loyalty" in business without a tremendous amount of bonding. A Client may love your Business, but if for any reason you don't meet their expectations, they tend to look for alternatives.

Want more sales? You need to become your Prospects’ Only Hope! Today we are going to show you how to write your marketing in a way that shows prospects you are the only solution to their problems.

Have you ever heard the phrase “Time is Money”? Well, that is not always true. When you are starting your business, you will have to sacrifice your time because you don’t have money to market but as your business grows, you should shift your focus to spending money in a way that saves you time.

We all have rituals in our lives, whether we recognize them or not. As business owners, we need to make sure that we have the right rituals that will help us be successful in our business and life. Why are rituals important? Changing our Rituals

Every business needs a funnel that their prospects and clients go through. Now we are not just talking about a website funnel but a business funnel that moves your clients through the customer journey.

As entrepreneurs, we have a desire for more. We are not happy being still. We are happiest when we are moving forward and making progress. A 9 to 5 job controlled by someone else feels like death! This is what drives us to work 100 hours for ourselves instead of working 40 hours for someone else. This keeps us motivated those late nights and long hours while we build something we can call our own. The problem with this entrepreneurial personality is that we don’t know when it’s enough. We get in the mindset of more, and this spills into More, More, More! Pretty soon we find ourselves keeping up with the jones and feeling empty inside. When is enough, enough?

Sometimes in business, we get really good at using one tool so it becomes our go-to for everything. If you are a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. To be a successful business owner, you need to be well-rounded and face your weaknesses head-on.
