1. Revisit your why 2. Take a step back 3. Set smaller, more achievable goals 4. Ask for help What's something you're struggling with right now? Like, the one thing that you're feeling defeated in? Is it a lack of leads? Difficulty in closing sales? By identifying the specific obstacle, you can develop targeted strategies to overcome it. It could be as simple as reaching out to one potential customer or dedicating an hour to learning something new. Learn from the no's you're hearing. Maybe it's a sign to tweak the pitch, or perhaps it's an indication to focus on a different target market. Celebrate your wins, no matter how small. And invest in personal development, whether it's through reading books, attending trainings, or listening to podcasts related to sales, marketing, or personal empowerment.

Here are my major thoughts on this topic-- Know your audience: Who are you talking to? What's your brand message? Keep it clear and consistent. What are three things people should say about you and your content? Use everyday language and STOP relying on ChatGPT to write your content. Write copy like you're talking to a friend, not a business. Blend your personal story into your brand, making it heartfelt. Make sure to include the highs and the lows. Give them a peek into your everyday life. (behind-the-scenes) Ask your audience genuine questions to learn more about them. When your audience engages, give them more of that!

Have you ever felt like you're constantly treading water, struggling to keep your head above the surface in so many different parts of your life? Many of us have felt this way at some point in our lives, and it is often caused by an issue known as the "scarcity mindset." This limiting belief can mess with so many decisions, not just your relationship with money, leaving you feeling stuck. Scarcity mindset is like a cloud that blocks the sun, casting shadows over our lives in many different ways. It's the deep-rooted belief that there's never enough—whether it's not enough money, time, love, or resources. This mindset can manifest in a bunch of ways. In this episode, I'll explore how scarcity mindset can impact various aspects of your life, its root causes, and most importantly, how you can break free from this thought pattern to embrace a mindset of abundance and opportunity. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christin-morris/support
