Are you working too hard in a business that’s going nowhere?
YOU SHOULDN’T BE!
I want you to understand that as a leader you need to learn how to slow down.
Sometimes you have to take a step backward to take two BIG STEPS forward – in a meaningful and fulfilling way.
Don't freak out when you see a temporary decline...because more than likely you will.
But, what you’re doing is you’re building a more solid foundation for long term sustainable growth.
In this Biz Tip Friday, I’ll share with you how to reduce stress by slowing down, working smart, and focusing on the right things.
Here’s the reality -- the bigger your team gets, the more demands you have on your personal time.
And, that means most of your time is devoted in working with team members 1-on-1, doing individual calls, and answering questions.
And most leaders wind up spending the majority of their time with the WRONG PEOPLE.
Think about how much time you waste each week doing all these things and nothing really comes from it? Your business doesn’t grow. But, your frustration does.
For you to address this problem, you need a SYSTEM for deciding who to spend your time with AND to develop strong, independent leaders on your team.
And trust me, most people in this industry do NOT have a system that does these two things.
But, that’s exactly what my Weekly Accountability Meetings do. It is a system that allows you to work with the right people in an extremely time efficient way that grows your business AND develops strong leaders on your team for years to come.
In this episode, I’ll share with you the 5 benefits of WAMs, how you can move from profit to purpose in your business and create a long-term sustainable success.

A common struggle of leaders, especially those with a large team, is knowing when it’s the right time to pass the baton to the emerging leaders on their team and let them run the race on their own.
This is crucial to know, because two things could happen that could impact their long term success and their businesses.
One is letting go of leaders way too early.
And as a result they struggle and get stuck in their business instead of becoming effective.
Another thing is holding people for too long.
We train, develop, and do for them for too long and we wind up actually stunting their development.
In this Biz Tip Friday, I give you some important advice on when is the right time to let a leader go, and I’ll also share the 3 phases to leadership development.
How much time are you spending talking about your business?
Here is one of the main reasons why hobbyists and accidental leaders struggle in building a team…
They spend way too much time talking about WHAT they do instead of listening to their prospects.
Which is the exact opposite of what the top leaders in this profession do.
The best leaders spend most of their time listening to prospects, knowing their problems, and helping them solve it through their product or business.
Truth be told, prospects don’t really care about you. They care about what you can do for them.
And they join when they see value in what you do.
In this Biz Tip Friday, I talk about how you can create value for your prospects and why talking less and listening more is one of the keys to building a team.
Do you need to breathe a BIG boost of energy into your business?
If the answer is ‘YES,’ than the answer to your prayers just might be In-Person Events.
We have spent the last year minimizing our in-person contact, but as the world continues to open up, people are CRAVING community and connection.
People – both your customers and your team – miss getting together.
And here’s the thing – we can do in person events in a fun, yet safe, way.
And on this week’s podcast, some of our top leaders in the community share their ideas for running amazing in person events.
They share:
---> How to ease back into in-person events if you haven’t done them for a long time (or ever!)
---> How in-person events have sent a whole new wave of excitement into their business and the businesses of their team members
---> FUN ideas for having in-person events outside of your own home
---> How to run in-person events that provide the connection people want without a hard sales pitch
---> How to KEEP people connected and attending your events
How much time are you spending on marketing versus prospecting to grow your business?
There are two sides to your business: prospecting and marketing.
And I personally believe that a lot of you are relying too heavily on the marketing side.
And that's one of the reasons why you're feeling stuck.
Don’t get me wrong, marketing is important; however, marketing alone is not enough to build a business.
What I want you to understand is that marketing is meaningless unless you're using it to drive your prospecting….and most of you are NOT spending enough time prospecting,
Today, I’m going to share the difference between PROSPECTING and MARKETING, and how to shift most of your time to prospecting in order to build your business.
