Today I’m sharing my top 3 takeaways from the book Level Up Your Life by Steve Kamb and you can immediately start to use these insights to rapidly uplevel your business and your entire life. Plus you’ll learn exactly what collecting underpants, going on grand quests and morphing into someone other than yourself have to do with building a super successful business 🙂
I “lie” all the time… And, you know what? I’m NOT sorry! Here’s something most marketing and sales experts won’t tell you… There’s a difference between accuracy and truth in marketing and it’s the difference between a successful, profitable business and one that never takes off.
When I turned 40 last year, I had a huge a-ha moment… You don’t have to burn the candle at both ends or sacrifice precious time with family and friends to create huge success in your business. There is a way to build your business from a place of rest and rejuvenation… from juicy creativity, enthusiasm and inspiration. Find out how in this week’s video…
I wish I could tell you the best entrepreneurs — the ones who are amazing at what they do — will always win… but I can’t because it’s not true. The truth is that it’s not enough to compete on quality, price, availability or even on mind blowing customer service alone. You need to create a memorable experience for your clients and customers AND you need the strength of an awesome brand to back that experience up.
Hiring is a little bit like dating your co-workers, it’s NOT a good idea to rush the dating process and you definitely don’t want to get married for life right away. I’ve had many hits and even more misses when it comes to hiring the right people for Live Your Message. I’ve learned the fine art of hiring people who love you, who believe in what you do and who want to see you succeed, and I’m sharing my learnings in my latest post.
Oscar Wilde famously wrote that “All art is quite useless.” And after some contemplation, I agree. Being a successful entrepreneur is about deliberately sculpting powerful experiences for your prospects so they do something with that all-important call to action, not just pure self-expression. So if you want to succeed as an entrepreneur, you need to be a designer, not an artist. I’m sharing exactly how you can do that in my latest video 🙂
The Preparation Trap is my catchall term for when we don’t take action because we are so busy overthinking, overanalyzing and over-preparing. If you find yourself procrastinating, missing deadlines, or putting off your projects, goals, and dreams because you need to do, fix or research just one more thing before you FINALLY get started then you’re in the trap… But don’t worry, I’m opening up the escape hatch and sharing the secret route that will get you out in my latest blog post.
I love Times Square in New York, but it can become super overwhelming with all the lights, crowds and ads coming at you from every angle. It’s a great metaphor for what life is like these days. But when there’s SO much going on, how do you stay focused? How do you keep your attention on what really matters so you can hit those big goals and dreams and get your message out into the world?
You know that feeling you get when have a brilliant new business idea? It’s intoxicating, irresistible… even addictive. But letting yourself fall in love with your ideas could get you stuck in what I call the Biz Dev Trap, leading to absolutely NOTHING. No growth. No sales. No income. So in today’s post I’m sharing how to recognize when you’re stuck in the Trap and exactly how to to get yourself out.
The Flatiron Building in NYC is one of the most photographed, recognizable buildings in the world but that wasn’t always the case. Back when it was built in 1902 everyone thought it looked totally bizarre. But guess what? The thing that eventually made the Flatiron a world-class landmark is the SAME thing you’ll use in your business to stand out from the crowd and get your dream clients to see you’re someone to watch, someone to love, someone to follow and someone to trust.
