Building My First AI App (and Why You Don't Need to Be a Developer to Do It)

When is the "Right" Time to Work on Your Business

You’re technically working “on your business” all the time, but what about the time you take out to learn from someone else? To get new insights and ideas, what to do differently, growth strategies and guidance? Your schedule is so full that you hardly even have time to do the things outside of work that you enjoy, much less focus on business education.

You know that you need outside help, but you continue to push it back because you’re waiting for the “right” time, for a moment where you feel like you have more time on your calendar to dedicate to it. The thing is, how many other things are you waiting until that calendar space opens up for you to get to it?

Keep reading to find out when is actually the right time to work on your business and the importance of actively prioritizing education, so you can start seeing drastic changes quickly.

This Simple Title Shift Can Drastically Increase Your Average Client Value

It’s a no-brainer that if you really pay attention to the language and messaging you use, you start to attract your ideal clients. As a niche service provider, you know that you have the power to change lives and businesses with your service.

But one of the most important pieces of messaging that, with a simple shift, could change how you feel, your lead generation, conversions, pricing, and how you show up as an expert is what you call yourself.

We’re inviting you to try a new phrase to use outside of the usual “one-to-one service provider,” “creative entrepreneur,” “small business owner” terms that are so common in this tightly knit space.

Instead, what if you called yourself a “consultant” (whether that’s a marketing consultant, operations consultant, or [insert industry type] consultant)?

Introducing the Freedom Era: How to Reignite Your High Level Service Based Business Before Burnout Defines You

Do you know how to actually prioritize life-first, work less, enjoy your personal time more, develop hobbies, not be so consumed by work, all the while making good moolah? The answer is probably not, even though literally every business owner ever aims to accomplish all of this.

Instead, we’re met with regurgitated tactics like waking up early to meditate, sell thousands of a low-ticket offer to a nonexistent audience, and “level up” our mindset. It’s no surprise that those tactics don’t cut it for us.

So, after trial and error, hunkered down in isolation, we realized we’d unlocked something that thousands of other service-based business owners and consultants have been searching for. Now, we’re bringing in a new era of business, and we want you to be a part of it.
Welcome to The Freedom Era: Reignite Your Business Before Burnout Defines You. We’re hosting this 1-day event on March 29, 2022, and you’re invited to grab your ticket right now for just $47.

You’re able to streamline the way you send contracts, proposals, forms, invoices, schedulers, and other documents, all the while maintaining a consistently branded and professional image.

Unfortunately, we often see service providers massively underutilizing their CRM, so in this post, we want to share 5 ways to maximize your CRM and boost your productivity!
