When I first started my business, I followed the "ready, fire, aim" approach which caused much more harm than good. While taking action is critical, being strategic before launching would have saved me time, money, and headaches. If I could do it again, I would have treated starting a business more like baking a cake - following the precise recipe and steps in the correct order. I made many mistakes by winging it instead of aiming first. My goal now is to help others avoid those pitfalls so they can efficiently build thriving companies!   Connect with Mike: Linktree Mike'D Up!

“Jasmine, you need to take a break…”JD (my husband and business partner) said these words to me a few weeks ago.I immediately replied, “No. I need to work more. I need to do more.” (Can you relate?)It was while recording this podcast series with my co-host Marcus Murphy, I realized it wasn't the work that was keeping me from stepping away, it was the pressure of coming back and people asking what I was going to do/accomplish/create/build next.That's right, the expectations of returning kept me from taking time away to just…be.(Spoiler alert: I ended up taking the break.. AND, I put up parameters and said, “I'm taking a break without expectation and I need to do this for myself.”)In this conversation with Marcus, you'll hear me process the uncomfortableness of taking a break without knowing my next move. You'll also hear us both share candidly about how we got to where we are today, in hopes that our journeys will inspire and encourage you.Click play to hear all of this and…[00:02:02] Marcus's transition to becoming a CEO of a tech company and developing his company, The Five Percent.[00:06:04] Why Marcus believes in observing the market to build a business[00:09:33] How building your own brand helps you take control of your own circumstances and improve your organization.[00:10:18] How Marcus decided to focus on professional athletes as his niche.[00:17:24] How to create awareness around your brand, build recognition, and engage your audience.[00:18:21] What skyscrapers and athletes have in common - and how to apply it to business[00:22:04] Marcus's goal of building awareness for his business and how he plans to make this goal a reality.[00:27:23] The value of being “a sherpa” and helping others navigate their own path to success.[00:31:17] The responsibility and significance of being a minority founder in the business world.[00:33:43] My journey and challenges of transitioning from consulting to becoming a CEO.[00:42:50] Why I plan on taking a break and how I'm handling the expectations upon returning.Marcus spent the last 15 years building the foundation for a life of serial entrepreneurship.

In today's episode, Amanda talks about how building a business is like climbing a mountain. She spends a lot of hiking with her family, and she's noticed how the journey to success in business is just like hitting a new trail. Imagine there's this mountain you want to climb, but you're scared of heights or unsure about the challenges you might face. The fears and doubts can hold you back. But if you give up after the first try, you'll never reach the top. The key to success is not to switch mountains but to keep going back to the same one with a different approach, a better mindset, and a solid strategy. It's about taking baby steps, learning from each attempt, and making progress. Growth comes each time you try and I'm here to give you practical + tangible steps you can apply in your business today so that you finally reach the top of that “mountain” you want!

A thought leader's business often comprises writing a book, traveling to do keynote speaking, networking with other experts, and building lots of content. However, if you want that business to live on after you no longer can or want to do those tasks, what can you do to reduce the liability of yourself? Our guest today has excelled at everything a thought leader needs to know how to do, including removing himself from the day-to-day of a business he built.  Michael Bungay Stainer is the best-selling author of The Coaching Habit, a renowned keynote speaker, and Founder of Box of Crayons, a learning and development company that provides training to enterprise companies. With Michael's newest book How to Work with (Almost) Anyone: Five Questions for Building the Best Possible Relationships having just hit the shelf we start our conversation discussing the phases of a book launch and how marketing a book is more than marketing just the book.  He shares how a book can become the gateway to your larger ecosystem.  Michael gives the pros and cons of traditional and hybrid publishing as well as why you need to treat your book like starting a business, giving it at least 2 – 3 years to flourish and grow. In addition to being an author, Michael knows the keynote speaking side of the business sharing how at the best of times focusing on speaking can be lucrative, ending with standing ovations and nice hotel rooms.  However, it can also mean hundreds of days on the road, airport delays, and fatigue.  We learn the criteria Michael uses for saying Yes to a possible gig and how speaking can fit into your business model. Books and speaking are powerful tools for spreading thought leadership but how can your business go on without you writing and speaking? As the Founder of Box of Crayons, Michael ensured the company benefitted from his best-selling books and reputation but also ensured the sales training could stand without him.  He shares both the B2B and B2C strategy that is allowing him to work 1 hour a month for Box of Crayons without the company falling apart in his absence. This episode is a master class on everything a thought leader needs to know to ensure not only the success of their personal brand but the company they someday will leave behind.  Three Key Takeaways: ·         It is really hard to write a book.  Except compared to marketing a book.  It's really hard to market a book... except compared to getting people to read a book. ·         Hybrid publishing means you are the executive editor of your book.  You get to call it what you want and give it the look and feel you want.   ·         As time goes on you need to watch the market and see if your target avatars have changed.  When they do you may need to update your content and offers to accommodate their growing needs.

Kyle Handy has created the #1 agent-owned real estate blog, and in this episode, he talks about his success in producing content and blogging and why they surpass posting to social media as a business-growth strategy. He's sharing specific SEO advice, the best platforms for distributing value and building trust, and his recommendations for topics that even a novice blogger or new real estate agent can knock out of the park. When you listen, you'll discover the valuable SEO strategy that catapulted Kyle's rankings on Google, a reliable source of popular blog topics that so many agents routinely fail to consider, and why videos, podcasts, and blogging provide continuous value that posting to social media simply cannot—and never will—deliver.

Meredith Monday Schwartz began her career at the women-powered wedding venue company Here Comes the Guide in 1997 as their first employee; now she's the CEO. Before onboarding with the company, she was working in a highly stressful environment at a Top 10 legal firm as a paralegal. Seeking more life/work balance, she joined the fledgling team where she put her problem solving skills to work. In the early days, she played every role and learned how to do all the jobs she would eventually hire people to do. Those years of experience helped her develop the empathy and business savvy required to be the strong leader she is today. Here Comes the Guide helps couples all across the country find the perfect wedding venue for them. Its business structure is an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, which provides employees with a certain percentage of shareholdings after they've worked with the company for one year. This structure creates a sense of buy-in for employees to help the company grow and increase in value. During the global shut down in 2020, possibly one of the greatest challenges for the wedding industry to date, Here Comes the Guide actually flourished. They focused on helping clients navigate the crisis, moved to a four-day work week, and adapted to meet the ever-changing needs of their clientele. Meredith attributes much of the company's success to their slow growth, grassroots approach that values the culture of the company over any quick profit plan. Main Topics How Meredith came to be a CEO (01:48) From paralegal work to a wedding venue start-up (04:15) The evolution of her role at Here Comes the Guide (08:35) Benefits of knowing how to do every job at the company (12:40) Systems and processing as a superpower (14:35) Employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) (17:00) How the company grew through the pandemic (19:50) Transitioning from print to virtual (24:20) The value of slow growth (28:40) Adopting a four-day work week (30:00)   Episode Linkshttps://www.herecomestheguide.com Go to TheFridayHabit.com to find show notes for this episode.

Do you ever want to give up and quit? Crithicca, co-host of the Motiversity podcast, recently asked me this question. My response was instantaneous: “Every single week.”You see, every single week I have my fair share of doubts… the nights of questioning what the heck I'm even doing.  But here's what I've learned: the doubt and the challenges don't go away… we just get more resilient the longer we keep going. It's like going to the gym, right? The weights don't get lighter, we just get stronger. When I was asked by Joel (the other co-host of the Motiversity podcast) what I thought led to my success in business, I told him that I believed it was a combination of two main things. First, building trust by years of freely serving my audience, and second, the promise, value, and timing of my offer (Social Curator).But success rarely comes from just one or two things… It also comes from things like learning to overcome the fear of rejection, knowing which questions to ask to get results, and staying disciplined with daily habits in order to maximize productivity.We discussed these things in detail in this episode, so click play to hear all of this and:[00:00:56] My personal story–and how being a daughter of an immigrant, dropping out of law school, and my mother's illness shaped me into who I am today.[00:02:24] Why I decided to become a photographer and how I started my own business.[00:03:30] How I transitioned from being a photographer to becoming a consultant and creating online courses.[00:08:30] The moments that motivated me to pursue my dreams despite feeling unqualified.[00:09:36] The difficulties I faced in launching Social Curator.[00:13:45] My mission to build a profitable business while empowering others and what keeps me going.[00:17:24] The growth of the creator economy and how Social Curator helps people get started with marketing their business on social media.[00:20:41] My personal journey of overcoming doubt and taking small steps toward empowerment in my photography career.[00:26:40] The mindset I had in my 20s and how I wished I had taken more risks and been unattached to the outcome.[00:29:46] The advice I received from a photographer about taking risks and jumping in, even when there is no net.[00:31:36] The importance of falling and getting back up as an entrepreneur and how failure is a normal part of the process.[00:36:32] The significance of identifying and targeting a specific audience for effective marketing and business growth.[00:44:14] How my husband inspires me with his intentional approach to success and his ability to find success in any situation.More about Motiversity: Motiversity is one of the largest motivational media companies in the world and includes 4 of the most popular brands in the personal development industry: Motiversity, Motivation2Study, MotivationHub, and T&H Inspiration.
