Podcasts about business vision

In this episode, I explain why interior designers need a "success plan" rather than a traditional business plan. Learn how to create a living, breathing document that defines success on your terms, tracks what matters most to you, and helps you stay focused on building a business that supports the life you actually want to live. This isn't about impressing investors—it's about creating clarity and direction for your unique design journey.Hope you enjoy the episodeBeth xxWhy "Success Plan" Instead of "Business Plan"Traditional business plans often feel intimidating and corporate, filled with graphs, charts, and formal language that doesn't reflect how creative businesses actually work. More importantly, they're usually static documents that don't evolve as you grow as a business owner.I like to think of it as a success plan because that's what we're actually trying to create, a business that's successful by your definition, not someone else's.Your success plan is a tool for you—to check in with your goals, measure what's working, get back on track when things feel wobbly, and define what success actually looks like for you.What Goes Into Your Success PlanYour VisionWhat kind of business are you building? What do you want it to look and feel like in one year, three years, and five years? This isn't just about revenue—it's about the complete picture of your ideal business.Your NumbersWhat are your revenue goals, profit margins, and pricing structure? Whatever feels meaningful and motivating to you is what you should be tracking. If you don't track it, you're not going to achieve it.Your Ideal ProjectsWho do you love working with? What kind of work lights you up? Getting clear on this helps you make better decisions about which opportunities to pursue and which to pass on.Your Systems and SupportWhat tools and processes are helping you now, and what's missing? This includes everything from project management systems to team support to personal boundaries.Your Measures of SuccessThis is a big one that designers often get wrong. How are you going to measure success in your business? Are you tracking creative freedom, time off, profit, client satisfaction? Knowing what you value helps you design a business that gives you more of it.Making It a Living DocumentYour success plan isn't set and forget. It should be something you come back to every six months or at any moment when you're feeling unsure or like you've drifted a bit.You can do it over coffee in a café. It doesn't need to be formal. It needs to feel like you.The more it feels authentic to you, the more likely you are to actually use it. This document should evolve as you do, reflecting your changing priorities and growing understanding of what you want from your business.The Key Question to Start With"What does success look like for me in this season?" This one question will help shape everything else in your success plan.Success might mean three design projects a year and Fridays off. Maybe it's a team of five, multiple revenue streams, and being booked out six months in advance. Both are valid, but your plan should reflect your vision, not a generic template.Why This MattersWhen you know your numbers, understand your ideal projects, and have clarity on what success means to you, you can: • Make intentional choices about opportunities• Stay focused on what matters most• Build a business that supports the life you want to live• Avoid getting caught up in what everyone else is doingYour future self, the one taking Fridays off or leading a thriving team, is going to thank you for it.This episode is essential for interior designers who want to build businesses that are not just creatively fulfilling but also aligned with their personal definition of success.

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!

Walking a path no one in your family has traveled before can feel impossibly lonely. Where do you turn for advice when there's no blueprint to follow? How do you navigate the complexities of business and finance without generational wisdom to guide you?This powerful conversation explores the emotional and practical challenges of being the first in your family to pursue entrepreneurship or professional success. When you can't ask parents or siblings "What did you do in the past that made you fail?" or "What can I do better?", finding mentors becomes essential for growth and sanity.We dive deep into how cultural backgrounds shape our relationship with money. For many communities of color, financial literacy wasn't passed down generationally, creating patterns where money is viewed as a source of happiness rather than something requiring strategic management. True financial wellness comes not from accumulating wealth for impulse spending, but from developing comprehensive plans that incorporate retirement goals and create security for your future self.The conversation explores a common entrepreneurial pitfall: abandoning ventures at the first sign of trouble rather than persisting through challenges. As one mentor advises, "Go down into the little details... and master whatever you do." This mastery approach builds expertise that can't be easily replicated by newcomers, creating sustainable advantages in your industry. Smart diversification means building on existing strengths rather than randomly venturing into unrelated fields.Perhaps most importantly, we confront the paralyzing fear that prevents many potential entrepreneurs from ever starting. These fears often stem from childhood experiences where attempts at growth were met with discouragement. The antidote? Ask yourself: "If I were dying tomorrow, would I regret not trying?" Sometimes the biggest obstacle to success is our own mindset.Subscribe to our channel as we continue our journey of changing lives through these conversations about entrepreneurship, mindset, and creating generational wealth.Support the showWatch the video episode of this on YouTube - https://linktr.ee/konnectedminds

Nick and Tyler talk about what it really costs to grow a business—and why scaling back might be the smartest move you can make. They unpack the illusion that more work equals more success, the hidden costs of chasing bigger numbers, and how to build a company that actually works for you, not just your spreadsheet. From forecasting cash flow to facing the uncomfortable truths behind low-margin projects, this episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling the pressure to grow without a plan. Whether you're doing $1M or $10M a year, the real question is: are you making it work, or is it working you?   Show Notes:  Modern Craftsman Podcast Introduction and Sponsor Acknowledgements (0:00) Personal Experiences with Real Estate and Housing Market (8:21) Comparing Home Building to Custom Car Building (18:07) Scaling Business and Managing Growth (30:05) Employee Management and Career Development (36:12) Balancing Business Goals and Personal Life (59:24) Dad's Active Lifestyle and Its Impact (1:01:58) Business Vision and Scaling Plan (1:15:57) Promoting the Newsletter and Behind-the-Scenes Content (1:17:46) Nick's Vulnerability and Reader Engagement (1:19:47) VIdeo Version https://youtu.be/2QyINuxS-9U   Partners:  Andersen Windows Buildertrend Velux Harnish Workwear  Use code H1025 and get 10% off their H-label gear   The Modern Craftsman: linktr.ee/moderncraftsmanpodcast Find Our Hosts:  Nick Schiffer  Tyler Grace  Podcast Produced By: Motif Media

What if the only thing standing between you and your dream business… is your partner's support? When I first told my husband I wanted to launch an alcohol-free coaching business, he had no frame of reference for it. He was nice about it, but had no clue about the potential.  Friends and family are often the last ones to understand your vision – and in fact, in trying to protect you from falling on your face, they might even try to talk you out of it.  In the newest episode of Euphoric the Podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really took to get my husband on board with my massive dream. Spoiler alert: he's now my business partner, COO, and CFO. But that transformation didn't happen overnight. I'll share the exact strategic moves and conversations that helped me lead with my vision, even when no one else could see it.  I also share candid insights about my mom's journey from a post-war communist country to achieving the American dream, even when my dad wasn't sure (and why women are often the visionaries in the family).  It is SO important to give yourself permission to be the visionary.  P.S. The 5X Certification program starts TODAY! We might have one more spot available. DM me if it's yours.    IN THIS EPISODE: Why not everyone needs to understand your massive business vision and how to maintain belief in your dreams, even when those around you think you're crazy Candid insights about my mom's incredible journey from a post-war communist country to achieving the American dream, even when my dad wasn't sure Tips for turning skepticism into support, including how to sidestep the protector instinct that can hold you back from launching your dream business Why women often are less likely to start businesses than men are – and yet, statistically women entrepreneurs outperform men   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Be sure to check out my recent episode about how my husband was able to quit his day job and go full-time with me in this business.

In this episode of “Success Leaves Clues,” hosted by Dustin Plantholt, listeners can expect an enthralling conversation with Austin Ambrozi, an accomplished entrepreneur with a fresh perspective on success and business. The episode begins with Austin defining success not by the typical markers of wealth or status but by the congruence between one's circumstances and personal values. This thought-provoking viewpoint challenges the conventional wisdom that equates success primarily with financial achievement.   Austin elaborates on his philosophy, explaining that the true debate about success often revolves around balancing professional and personal life, particularly the tension between money and family. By focusing on values, he argues, individuals can redefine success on their terms, finding fulfillment even without traditional markers of achievement.   The conversation then shifts to Austin's educational background in economics from the University of Missouri, Columbia (Mizzou). He discusses how his college experience shaped his thinking, not just through academic knowledge but also by developing his social intelligence. He highlights the unique environment of a large university, where thousands of peers from similar backgrounds come together, providing an invaluable learning experience in human interactions and networking.   As a serial entrepreneur, Austin shares his process of transforming ideas into reality. He introduces the concept of the "impact of reality," acknowledging that ideas often change when confronted with practical challenges. This pragmatic approach involves assessing which values a pursuit satisfies and determining its feasibility in the real world. This methodology applies not only to business ventures but also to personal relationships and creative endeavors.   Dustin delves deeper into the entrepreneurial mindset, discussing the importance of embracing uncertainty and the power of asking questions. Austin considers his ability to ask insightful questions his "superpower," crucial in sales and essential for identifying the right clients, friendships, and business opportunities. He notes that many people hesitate to ask questions due to fear of being wrong, which can hinder personal and professional growth.   The episode also explores how success and ambition can impact relationships. Austin reflects on how his friendships have evolved, noting that his business partner remains his best friend and will be the best man at his wedding. However, he acknowledges that pursuing financial freedom and professional success often requires significant sacrifices, leading to changes in other relationships. He shares the difficult choices he has made, missing personal events to focus on his entrepreneurial goals, and the importance of determining which values and relationships are non-negotiable.   Balancing priorities and maintaining a semblance of work-life balance is another key theme. Austin admits there is no perfect formula, especially for high-performing individuals or those in the building stage of their careers. He emphasizes the need to prioritize critical tasks and handle the most pressing issues—what he calls identifying "the grenade"—to ensure the survival and success of his business.   Listeners will also get a glimpse into Austin's daily routine, which, despite its chaos, includes consistent elements like his eating habits and exercise regimen. He talks about the importance of minimizing decision fatigue by standardizing meals and reducing unnecessary choices, allowing him to focus more on his business. His routine is flexible, adapting to the demands of different time zones and unexpected challenges.   Towards the end of the episode, Austin discusses his approach to setting ambitious goals, comparing them to "moonshot days." These are days where he aims to achieve the best possible outcomes, even if he only occasionally hits the mark. He also shares his philosophy of continuous learning, stressing the importance of pushing beyond limits but also recognizing the need to manage the consequences of overexertion.   The episode concludes with Austin's reflections on the necessity of perseverance and strategic thinking in entrepreneurship. He underscores the importance of learning from those further along the path and staying focused on long-term goals despite the inevitable setbacks and obstacles.   Tune in to this insightful episode of "Success Leaves Clues" to hear more about Austin Ambrozi's journey, his innovative philosophies on success, and practical advice for aspiring entrepreneurs looking to carve their unique paths in the business world
