He asked how he could grow his business fast. Is it FB Ads? Is it Google Ads? Is it adding more product? Is it creating more coupons?
I get asked this question often and what I’ve seen are 3 things that are missing and when focused on open the doorway to their success. Most business owners want to do “all the things” but don’t have some core pieces in place first.
It’s like building a house without laying the foundation first. That would be a pretty shaky house which wouldn’t be standing in a few years.
And when I started my business I didn’t have these 3 things in place which led to a lot of going in circles, random tasks and focusing on things that weren’t even remotely connected to my vision.
Curious what 3 things will help you grow your business? Here they are just for you.
You need to have a clear, compelling vision for the future. If you want to go to the next level in your business you need to have a vision beyond where you are right now. A vision is a road map to lead you on the path to success and being able to visualize it every day is what’s going to drive you forward. ⠀
You don’t need to work longer hours to be successful while focusing on doing more stuff and trying to do “all the things”. You need to learn to focus on the “vital few” things that are important to move the needle in your business. Trying to do everything only leads to burn out…and that’s not where you want to be.
You need to have a daily strategy to get things done. When we have clear goals, that connect directly to the vision you have for your business, you can stay focused on what is really important. Small focused action outweighs big random busyness any day.⠀
And that brings me to something important…your goals and your big vision.
Some people set HUGE goals that they want to achieve by the end of the year without a clear vision first which leads to randomness.
Some people get clear on their vision, set HUGE annual goals but get lost in random tasks and tactics because they don’t know where to begin.
And some people get it right and their business starts to soar simply by knowing their next best step.
Think BIG and create goals that connect to the BIGGER vision you have. Achieving the impossible, creating your legacy and working towards building a business and life you love takes consistency, commitment and taking small steps every day. Trying to do it all at once, just writing it on paper or just “thinking about it” isn’t going to make it happen. Taking focused action is what makes things happen.
Start with the end in mind and work backward. Imagine what outcome you want to achieve and then break things into 90-day increments and then monthly, weekly and daily goals. What once may have seemed impossible all of a sudden becomes possible.
It’s the tiny steps that create the biggest impact, {{ subscriber.first_name }}.
And just in case this still seems overwhelming I’ve recorded a little message just for you to listen wherever you may be. Building a business, setting goals and working on doing what most people won’t do takes courage, grit, and determination. I’ve been there myself and I know how hard it can be at times. So here is a gift for you to get you through those tough moments so you can keep going and keep taking small steps towards a big impact.
