This week on the Digitally Overwhelmed podcast I got to interview author and popular keynote speaker, Mike Michalowicz. I had so much fun interviewing Mike because he has so much wisdom to share about running your small business finance (among other things). Sometimes when it comes to “serious” topics like doing the finances in our business, it can be hard to find resources and frameworks that are motivating to follow. And all of Mike's books do exactly that: the inspire you to take action, but also give you some clear rules to follow.  In this conversation we talk about bringing comedy to the business world, depression in the entrepreneur community, and how he uses A/B testing in his business to make decisions. Mike Michalowicz is a former small business columnist for The Wall Street Journal; is the former MSNBC business make-over expert; is a popular keynote speaker on innovative entrepreneurial topics; and is the author of Profit First, Surge, The Pumpkin Plan and The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur   Mike Website: http://www.mikemichalowicz.com/ Mike's IG: https://www.instagram.com/mikemichalowicz/   Mike's Books Profit First: https://profitfirstbook.com/ Clockwork: http://clockworkbymikemichalowicz.com/  Surge: http://surgebymikemichalowicz.com/ The Pumpkin Plan: http://pumpkinplan.com/ Toilet Paper Entrepreneur: http://toiletpaperentrepreneur.com/ http://digimorphs.com https://www.instagram.com/digimorphs/ Website Links: Full episode show notes for this episode: https://digitalbloomiq.com/podcastepisodes/mikemichalowicz-interview?rq=mike%20 Get email updates on all podcast episodes (+ SEO tips, behind the scenes, and early bird offers) : here: https://digitalbloomiq.com/email 90 Day SEO Plan: Your Dream Clients Booking You Overnight!

Chunks Founder Tiffany Ju Bootstrapped to $1M in Annual Sales Without Paid Ads

Tiffany Ju is our guest on Female Founder World! Tiffany's bootstrapped hair accessory brand, Chunks, hit $40k in sales in her first year, $500k in year two, and in her third year, 2021, made over $1 million in sales—all without paid ads.  After being let go from her first 9-5 job in 2012, Tiffany began building her first business. She started dying tights in her kitchen and selling them on Etsy, which immediately went viral. She quickly discovered hand-dying tights wasn't a scalable business, and sales declined over time as the trend faded. Tiffany eventually closed her tights business and took a year off in 2018 to create art and explore her interests. She found a gap in the market for unique, high-quality hair clips, and Chunks was born. Things lined up: Tiffany already had experience manufacturing, the margins looked great, and there wasn't much competition in the space at the time. Her tights business left Tiffany in debt, so she knew she had to bootstrap and be extremely resourceful this time around. Tiffany worked with manufacturers who accepted small orders, created her own website, invested in photography, and began testing the market. Chunks began primarily selling via wholesale since Tiffany was able to tap into her existing network from her first business. From there, the online orders began trickling in. In 2020 with stores closing and wholesale slowing down, Tiffany continued developing her customer base online and saw ecommerce taking off. Today, Chunks' business is split about 40% ecommerce and 60% wholesale. The business is doing over a $1 million in annual revenue and manages a team of 14. While Tiffany has prioritized hiring, she's refocused herself into a marketing director role, deciding that it's too early to bring on someone externally for that position.     Female Founder World is the place to meet your business besties online and IRL. Join our online community and get alerts about upcoming events in your city: www.femalefounderworld.norby.live Links Explore Chunks: http://chunks.shop/ Join Female Founder World's AMA to ask Tiffany your business questions on Thursday, 3 Nov 2022: https://momence.com/s/29672484  We're coming to Austin!

This guy right here remembers walking away from the kitchen table and out into the fresh air, fist pumping as he got into his car because he locked up a $75,000 contract to flip a house with ZERO money. How did that happen? At that point, Matt Aitchison realized you don't necessarily have to have the resources. You've just got to be resourceful enough, surround yourself with the right people, and create certainty by taking action every single day. In this conversation, Erik Cabral speaks with Matt Aitchison, the CEO and the president of Vault Investment Properties. Matt is a business coach, speaker, and the host of a ridiculously successful podcast called The Millionaire Mindcast, a top 100 Business and Lifestyle podcast that focuses on all things Mindset, Money, and Investment Markets to help you unlock a more rich and fulfilling life. As a real estate investor and syndicator, Matt is not new to the real estate industry, having flipped hundreds of houses and built a Top 1000 real estate team in the U.S. His current focus is on raising capital for syndications and scaling his passive income portfolio, which consists of commercial strip centers, hospitality assets, and single-family rentals. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: You don't have to be the smartest guy in the room! His first house-flipping experience Being resourceful over having the resources How to create certainty in your life How to hone your superpower to connect people together The power of tapping into your awareness and feedback Ways to educate yourself about finance About the Millionaire Mindcast Embracing humility and checking in with your ego Episode Highlights: [03:29] Right People & Right Conversations When you can tap into other individuals' experiences, their wisdom, their networks, and their strategies, these can accelerate your life, your business, and your success in terms of becoming a better man. This also gives you the permission to not be good at everything. Surround yourself with people that allow you to be vulnerable, to be open to, to ask questions, whether you feel insecure about them or not. You don't need to know all these things. Find the right people that complement your weaknesses or can fill the gaps. You just need to be around the right people, get in the right circles, right conversations, and right environments, and you will grow into those things. [07:34] How to Create Certainty in Your Life When you don't necessarily have all of the stepping stones and all of the clear paths and points that you feel like you need, when you're uncertain, the best way to create that certainty is just to keep taking action every single day. Even if it's small, over an extended period of time, and you look up and you start to see you've covered a lot of ground. [15:12] Embracing Humility and Letting Go of the Ego Exercise humility over and over every single day. Look for those areas where you can improve. For Matt, most of his failures came from his ego, which he could have avoided. He believes in the power of the pause. There is power in not responding to somebody who's talking trash to you right away and taking five minutes before you send off that email. There's power in taking an extra day or a week or a month to map out a business plan and to do it right.

Mike Michalowicz is a best-selling author, speaker, multi-millionaire business owner and the man that Simon Sinek calls “the top contender for the patron saint of entrepreneurs”  However, his work today came as a result of learning some crucial business and life lessons after losing everything he'd made from selling two companies. Since then Mike has devoted his life to finding better ways for himself and other entrepreneurs to grow healthy, strong companies.  He is a former small business columnist for The Wall Street Journal and business makeover specialist on MSNBC. Mike is a popular main stage keynote speaker on innovative entrepreneurial topics.  One of his most popular books and systems is Profit First, which is used by hundreds of thousands of companies across the globe to drive profit. He has written many others and his latest book, ‘Fix This Next', is accidentally, but perfectly timed to help many business owners suffering as a result of the crisis.  In this show, I'm getting the low down from Mike on many things that will help you as a speaker and business owner to move forward despite the challenges that you are facing on the journey.  I hope you enjoy the show. What we talk about:     Why Mike has dedicated his life to investigating the journey of successful entrepreneurship.      The origin of Profit First as a way of managing cash in your business.     Why traditional accounting methods don't work for entrepreneurs.      How ‘Profit First' works.      The amazing results it has had for entrepreneurs and businesses in sustaining profitability.     The ‘Survival Trap' exercise that you can run for your business.     Why Mike developed the ‘Business Hierarchy of Needs' to identify the right actions for your business if you're feeling overwhelmed or facing a crisis in your business.     The story of Cottonwood Coffee and how they used the business hierarchy of needs.     How speaking fits into what Mike does.     Why you should give people actionable content when you're speaking.     The ‘One Step Back' technique and how you can use it to pivot.     Why you shouldn't give until it hurts and what you do should always have a sales foundation.     How and why Mike uses stories and humour in his talks.     The way that Mike overcame his public speaking anxiety.     Why you should listen to people's wallets, rather than their words.

On today’s episode of From Nothing to Profit, Kia and Matt talk about money. Listeners wanted to know how to choose what to sell and how to price those things, what to spend money on and what not too, and more, so Matt and Kia answer those questions in this podcast. Kia is always looking for new ways to hang client’s images on their walls, like super ornate frames or acrylics. Matt is always testing different versions of products to see which sells best. Make sure to take notes about how Matt and Kia markup their products to make sure their costs are covered and make a profit. Matt and Kia both keep a list of things they want to be able to purchase and things they wants to invest in, with that profit. Education is always high on that list, as well as large wall displays for their studios. You’ll also want to listen in to what Kia and Matt buy that they shouldn’t. Kia uses StudioCloud and Quickbooks, doing her own books and payroll. Matt used to use Successware, then switched to a bookkeeper with Quickbooks. Matt cautions losing visibility into your numbers when you start outsourcing your books. Know your numbers.

Matt: [00:16] Hey everybody, welcome back to from nothing to profit. So today’s gonna be a little bit different because Kira and I have gotten some feedback and some of you listeners wanted to hear a little bit more from us. So Kira and I came up with a theme today, what we’re calling the money talk because there’s been a lot of questions sent to us about this. So we’ll kind of go back and forth on these questions. But real quick, let me tell you guys the questions that people have asking so I’ll just run through them real quick. So what do you guys decide to sell or how do you guys decide to sell certain things? Um, how do you price items and how do you deal with markup now that you’ve made money, how do you know what to spend it on? What’s lead into questions like what are some really smart things to buy or use your money on and then what are some dumb or irresponsible things to buy? What do you buy a lot of and shouldn’t and should not buy. So that’s like what our, what our guilty pleasures that were like really bad about buying. And then how do you do your bookkeeping because in some previous episodes we talked about bookkeeping. Um, so how do you do bookkeeping it? And then there was a lot of questions around some more questions around profit first and what that’s done for our business. And then also some Dave Ramsey questions. So Kaya, I’m excited for this one. This should be definitely a good one. Kia: [01:34] Yes. Yes.

Stacy recorded this show in Mexico, while away on her first vacation in about five years. Initially, she thought that the vacation would be a waste of money, as she's been away to tons of conferences recently and she thought that the money could be better used in many other ways, both in her business and at home. She was also under the impression that she didn't really need a break at this time. Listen in and find out how Stacy came to realize that this vacation was really necessary for both herself and her husband.   Stacy points out that there is a big difference between going away to a conference, where you'll end up spending all day in over cooled conference rooms, and taking a real vacation with your partner. Listen in today, as she shares some of the valuable things that she learned while she was away.     Some highlights include:   “Just because I don't think I need a break...” At minute 4.49, Stacy explains that she came to realize that although she didn't think she needed a break,  her husband, who works in a typical 'nine to five' situation, certainly did. “Just because you don't need it, doesn't mean that he doesn't need it!” At minute 5.39, Stacy points out the necessity of taking your partner's needs into account, when deciding whether or not to take a break. “Also, we needed it together...we make sure that we take a date night once a week.” At minute 5.42, Stacy explains the importance of taking some quality time out, sans kids, to spend with your partner. “I didn't realize that I did need some sort of a break.” At minute 6.15, Stacy talks about how she came to realize that she had not exited out of 'launch mode' after her launch was over and she continued working around the clock, often trying to squeeze in as much work as she could before her kids woke up. “I was able to kind of re-prioritise, and because of that, it really gave me the break that I needed, that I didn't even know that I was missing.” At minute 7.00, Stacy explains how she benefited from a break that she didn't even realize that she needed. “Here's what I was able to do-” From minute 7.11, Stacy explains how her plans to read the book Profit First changed and she ended up walking and thinking a lot, resulting in her listening to a book with her Audible App, The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod- and taking the opportunity to practice what she learned from it for a whole week. “So here's kind of what I did and I want you to see this.” From minute 8.31, Stacy shares some of the things that she gained, from her daily practices from The Miracle Morning.  “I used the Muse Headband.” At minute 9.05, Stacy explains how using the Muse Headband really helps her to meditate. “Here are some tips that he gave me that are really useful-” At minute 10.04, Stacy shares some really helpful morning tips from the Muse Headband meditations. “And then a couple of the other things he tells you to do are affirmations..” From minute 11.53, Stacy explains how you can really benefit from doing regular affirmations. “Do some envisioning- something you want to happen.” At minute 12.36, Stacy talks about her use of a Vision Board. “Another thing he said was 'exercise'.” From minute 15.31, Stacy talks about how much she has benefited from doing ten minutes of Yoga each morning. “Journaling and really expressing your gratitude every morning in a journal.” At minute 16.56 Stacy talks about being really specific, without being repetitive, when expressing your gratitude every morning, in a journal.   Stacy's recommended resources:   Application: Audible (For listening to books)   Books: Profit First by Mike Michalowicz            The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod   Stacy bought this Muse Headband   Links:   For Stacy's free Training Workbook- 7 Ways to Go From Overlooked to Overbooked With High Paying Clients, go to: www.bit.ly.com/herfreetraining

In this episode of “All the Stuff”, our resident experts Lisa Carpenter, Transformational Life and Nutrition Coach, Jen Turrell, Financial Personal Trainer for Women, and Lisa Sharp, Empowerment Coach and Clutter Expert, explore the concept of “Self-Care”, what it really is (and isn’t!), and how it is absolutely non-negotiable for you.     So many of us fall into the habit and unconscious behaviour of ignoring our bodies and just existing, only to wake up one day depleted, and feeling defeated.  Listeners will hear how self-care is NOT selfish - and that paying attention to what they need to do to feel good, whatever that is, will only help support them in their daily lives and relationships with others.     Be sure to connect with the ladies over on their facebook group where they continue the conversation at https://www.facebook.com/groups/allthestuffpodcast  and their individual websites listed below.  Here are the links to their respective signature programs:  Lisa Carpenter’s Program E.A.T!, http://www.lisacarpenter.ca/EAT/eat2016/.  Lisa Sharp’s The Blueprint Group Program, http://clearcalmspace.com/blueprint/. and Jen Turrell’s Money Matters Mastermind,  http://jenturrell.com/money-matters-mastermind/.   Latest projects: CHECK THESE LINKS PRIOR TO POSTING EPISODE re LISA C and Jen T Lisa Carpenter’s Ebook - 5 Tips You Need to Know to Lose Weight… and Keep it Off: http://www.lisacarpenter.ca/5-reasons-ebook Lisa Sharp’s “Get House Proud for the Holidays” : http://clearcalmspace.com/holidays/ Jen Turrell and Niamh Arthur’s Project “    “:     Websites: http://www.lisacarpenter.ca/ http://jenturrell.com/ http://clearcalmspace.com/   Books: Profit First, by Michael MICHALOWICZ:   http://profitfirstbook.com/ Firestarters, by Danielle Laporte:  http://www.daniellelaporte.com/store/the-fire-starter-sessions-audio-course-1.html   Podcasts: Jen Turrell’s podcast Financial Fluency:  http://jenturrell.podbean.com/
