#1180 In this special "Where are they now?" edition of AskPat, we're bringing back Julienne DesJardins from JulienneDesJardins.com (originally on AP 1027). She supports business owners through virtual assistant services, email service providers, Squarespace, and social media management. She was first on the show back in 2018, when she was having trouble because she'd met her client limit. She was looking at building out her team and creating an agency, and wanted to know where to take things. We talk about the advice I gave her, how she's taken that advice, and where her business has gone since then. There's a lot of great stuff in here, from nerding out on project management to how Julienne steered her business through the early days of the COVID pandemic. You'll hear all about the great stuff she's done and implemented in the past couple years, so you can hopefully learn how to do something similar in your own business!

#1166 This is a one-of-a-kind episode of AskPat 2.0. For one thing, I'm interviewing a professional chocolate-maker. Yes really — her name is Arcelia Gallardo and she has a chocolate factory in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Not only does Arcelia have a unique business, but she also has a unique problem: how does she decide what content is written in English, Portuguese, or another language? Her customers are all over the world, so how can she make the ordering process seamless, no matter where someone's ordering from? Arcelia and I are going to brainstorm some solutions, so make sure you stick around. Show notes and more at SmartPassiveIncome.com/ap1166

Danielle is a marriage counselor over at IntentionalMarriages.net. In her last appearance on AskPat (episode 1086), I encouraged her to take her business to more virtual settings.

We're getting into all of that today in this great follow-up—this will be the first in a couple of "Where Are They Now?" episodes I'm doing here at the end of the year. Let's go!

On today's AskPat 2.0 coaching call, I'm talking with Lela Burris from LelaBurris.com. She is a professional home organizer who until recently has been helping people out in their homes. Her blog has been getting quite a bit of traction and she's got some concerns about making the pivot from her IRL persona to the one on her blog. When she shifts to being all virtual, will everyone accept who she really is? Do these two different brands clash with one another? We chat about how she can make this work out just fine and identify next steps for growth. Whether she decides to pursue a course or something else, she's got her beta customers all lined up!

Today on AskPat 2.0, I have a great call with David, from TDWellness.com and OneSmallBite.net. He's a registered dietitian, nutritionist, and certified exercise psychologist with a couple things going on, and he needs help creating some order. We talk about his issues around branding and organization, which are relevant to lots of entrepreneurs in the early stages. David's also got some shiny-object syndrome, another common ailment among entrepreneurs. We talk about how I allow myself a little time to pursue those shiny things—but not so much that I end up having to say no to things I've already said yes to! It's a great convo about things a lot of entrepreneurs deal with, so check it out.

Have you ever considered starting a podcast to market your business?Not only am I the host of the Jasmine Star Show, but I have found that doing 6-8 podcast interviews per month has grown both the Jasmine Star and Social Curator brands immensely. >>If you love listening to podcasts, chances are you know podcasts are a great way to get your name out into the world, even if it’s only through a listener’s headphones.

Tom Dimitroff and Matt Kelley are teachers by day, entrepreneurs by night, and coaches all the time. Their idea for a website that helps coaches and athletes keep track of their stats (and a whole lot more than that) came about organically out of a need they had as baseball coaches. They've got a great start, but have a bunch of questions about exposure and growth. They are at the bottom of the first inning, so to speak, and have the whole game still ahead of them. What is the best way for them to connect with their existing customers? When is the right time to expand out of their region? How much should they charge and what pricing model is best for what they're doing? Should the athletes pay, or should the coaches pay? What about building an app for it?We discuss communities, webinars, and a lot more on this week's AskPat 2.0 coaching call. It's on deck right here. Batter up!

Maddie Kertay is the BadAss Quilter, who says that she's "always going to stand on the side of love, diversity, and blazing a path for more people to become fabric artists." On this AskPat 2.0 episode, Maddie and Pat chat about everything she's doing to spread her message and grow her community (The BadAss Quilters Society), and the many directions she could go next: growing the private community, a podcast, sponsorship, affiliate marketing, merchandise . . . When would be the best time to reopen her community to new members—before or after she launches her podcast? Should she hire a virtual assistant (VA)? What things could she, as the CEO (and self-proclaimed micromanager) trust a VA with? (Note: This episode contains mentions of the "A" word, in case little kids are around.)

On this episode of AskPat, I'm talking to an entrepreneur just like you. RJ Weiss is the founder and editor of The Ways To Wealth, a Certified Financial Planner, husband, and father of three. He wants to know what next step he should take to bring more people to his websites and diversify where his traffic comes from. I want to know what he's doing to keep people there. After all, you can double the amount of traffic to your brand, but if you're not optimizing conversions, what's the point? This feels like a really productive conversation, and by the end we do get to what his next steps might be. Podcast or YouTube? He can do it right and bring his existing audience right over with him. Check it out.

On this week's AskPat coaching call, I talk with Jason McCarthy, founder of a site called DigiNo.org. He gets 80,000 visitors a month, but it doesn't translate into revenue. Why is this? Where is this traffic coming from? What do these visitors want, and where is the disconnect that's preventing them from spending money? We work through a lot of questions, and Jason's already done a ton of the right things: advertising, investors, an email list, videos... but his income is unreliable. This one is a toughie, but stick around to see what we come up with together.If you enjoyed today's episode and you love the format of this show and helping other entrepreneurs, can you help me convince others to listen, too?

Rick McEvoy is a photographer with a really interesting dilemma. How can he niche down and focus on the business aspect of his specialty within the photography space?

She's come up with some amazing recipes that help people get out of pain, and she's been getting traction with one of her products, sausage tree cream. (It's a real thing!) She also accepted an invitation to do a speaking engagement, and then—bam!— her one-woman production making cream in her kitchen was suddenly overwhelmed. More time in front of her computer. Less time foraging in nature.

#134: We are all in the midst of having to make pretty significant change in our lives. Maybe your work has been completely cut out from you and you’re struggling to find an answer.  That’s exactly where our guest on today’s show, Pat Flynn, was in 2008. After losing his dream job as an architect, Pat created a website to help others pass the LEED test, an exam many have to take in the architecture industry. People began leaving feedback on his site, with many saying his content was so good, they would pay for it.  So Pat wrote a study guide that dove even deeper into techniques to pass the LEED and sold it for $19.99 on his website. During its first month on the website, Pat generated $7,008.55 and that’s when it began to click for him. Since then, he has created various businesses under the Flynndustries LLC umbrella and uses them as case studies in both his blog and podcast. To date, Flynn's businesses have generated over $3 million in revenue and now he works with people all over the world to teach them how to do the same.
