28 Jul I kept a huge embarrassing secret: I was FAILING big time at my business
I kept a huge embarrassing secret: I was FAILING big time at my business. I worked for less than free for 2 years. Yup, It COST me (a lot) to run my business, I wasn’t making a dime.
And it would crush me. Anyone that questioned my program fees is want to ask them “do you work for free?” Most people don’t.
Why am I sharing this? Bc from the outside my business was crushing it. I had the customers, the audience, but, I was not even close to profitable and I was losing money each week.
It didn’t start that way, the first many years were profitable but then it tanked. Not because my programs weren’t nailing it (they were) but bc I did not know how to “run” a business and I was making one bad decision after the next.
I was great at GENERATING Income but not RUNNING A business. Managing people? Nope. Hiring well? Nope. Delegating the right things? Nope. Looking at P&L reports? Uhhh big nope! That was all hugely in my gap and it was embarrassing.
Entrepreneurs love to talk about how much money they make but they never share their PROFIT and their LOSSES & there is so much smoke and mirrors.
I had to finally face the music or lose everything. I had to clean house first (bye bye expenses that don’t have an ROI), dive in and learn a good system from someone who IS consistently profitable, walks the walk and that teaches in a way creatives like me can grasp and implement (smoothly)
That’s when I started working with James Wedmore.
Many of you have asked for me business advice. I’m great with creatives , branding and ideas… heck, I can “monetize” anyone but when it comes to running the business, keeping it profitable, systems and more? Leaving that to the expert. I’m an affiliate for James BBD course – because… Well, he is the expert.
BBD is not available to purchase yet (when it becomes available I’ll let you know as I’ll be doing something super special for those of you grabbing from me).
But for now, his super creative, informative, binge worthy FREE “bizflix” Series is available. Watch it- binge watch it. You will learn so much that you can start to SIMPLY Apply.
