How We Are Working With Clients in 2023
Sometimes, being in business since 2015, makes us feel a little prehistoric. Our company has certainly had its fair share of evolutions and pivots as not only we have grown, but our clients as well. We’ve had the privilege of working with folks from across the globe whether they tune in to our top-charting podcast, get sucked into our rabbit hole with our Trello for Business course, join our growing community of creatives, work with us in an intimate group setting or hang out with us 1:1 to tackle the big stuff. We thought it was time for us to update you on our suite of offerings and give you insight on how you can make magic happen with us.
Success in Your Service Based Business: This is the Key Factor You Must Get Right
There is, without a doubt, one thing that can make or break your service-based business: capacity. This is something that has dramatic effects when not practiced carefully or correctly, and the people who are doing it wrong are often those who are overworked and underpaid. By not understanding your capacity in an in-depth and intimate way, you’re constantly sacrificing your mental health and wellbeing, you probably feel like everything is working against you, and you may not be making the progress you’d like to see in your goals.
In this post, we hope to leave you with tons more clarity on how capacity works, its cause-and-effect nature, and how to finally leave the path of burnout.
The Best Way to Grow Your Service Business in 2023
We’re fresh into the new year, which comes the usual phase of absorbing as much information as there is available to help you better your business over the next year. To many service providers, this is actually a pretty fun time! Learning new tips and strategies is so exciting and motivates you to tackle them head-on and reach your goals.
As two gals with lots to share and talk about, we’ve released a massive amount of content about marketing, lead generation, relationship building, pricing and packaging your offers, getting referrals, building teams, the list goes on. So to make it easier on you without having to dig around, here’s a roundup of our top podcast episodes and blog posts on these topics!
How Your Service Pricing Needs to Change When You Build a Team
What we often see in the service-based industry is after 6-figures have been reached (sometimes multiple 6-figures), service providers will try to replace their current offer with something completely brand new. We know this is super tempting, especially when you’ve reached the point where you’ve started to tap out of what you can personally do within your business.
However, pricing is one of your greatest opportunities for expansion, especially when you can work with fewer people and make more money. While many may acknowledge price shifts over time, they aren’t seeing premium pricing as an opportunity to grow their team.
How Service Providers Can Identify Their Result and Deliver a Profitable Offer
Looking back there is something magical about the beginning stages of business. It’s like we all had this young naive way of thinking at the beginning. You’re learning all the things, you’re hustling, you’re saying yes a lot (probably more than you should have) but you’re doing it. You’re building something that is yours.
And then you get to a point where you’re hitting 10K months consistently. You did the thing! You’ve become an established business owner BUT you’re still holding onto that “beginner” energy. Yeah, you might be making more money but you’re still feeling stressed, overwhelmed, and stretched thin.
Do This First When Moving to 1:1 Services
There are a lot of established business owners who are, to say the least, freaking out with the current marketing and lead generation climate. A lot of you are taking clients under the table or starting to offer agency or 1:1 services even though you’ve been building a 1:many business the last few years. While we don’t think this is a bad strategy at all (we actually love it and think you should continue doing it), there are some things to consider first.
More often than not, you’ve gotten used to the digital marketing world where quantity is better than quality; where going viral and getting all the leads, likes, follows, and shares is what’s going to help you get more eyeballs. In a not-so-distant past, that was true. Now, though, there are some mindset shifts that should happen.
And the reason we’re bringing this up now is because we’ve also seen a lot of established business owners (some 7-figure!) that are closing up shop because this is the part where ish gets hard.
Have you considered pivoting or adding on 1:1 services to your existing business?
