On today's episode of the Business With Impact podcast, we're talking about priority-based living and why it's so important when it comes to goal setting.   You see, there's a problem with traditional goal setting.   Oftentimes, we set goals for our business, and what do we do? We start to dream and we pick some numbers (really, if we're being honest, out of thin air) based on what we wish and we immediately attach a whole lot of meaning to a number that we arbitrarily picked because someone told us that's what we needed to do…   I have a problem with that.  So, we're diving into what priority-based living means, why it matters, and how we implement it in our business and life when it comes to goal setting. --- Links mentioned in this episode:  → Follow Rachel on Instagram: @rachelrmcmichael → Learn more about The Business with Impact Academy HERE. → Grab your FREE organic traffic checklist HERE!

Welcome to another engaging episode where we dive into the world of business with my buddy, Randy Molland. We had a fantastic conversation about the importance of integrating impact initiatives into business operations. We talked about how businesses can multiply their good deeds, benefit from referrals, and create long-term positive changes. This episode is packed with inspirational stories, valuable insights, and practical strategies. Let's get started! https://youtu.be/QoxQGJJ3Ar8 Introduction to Impact Initiatives In this episode, Randy and I discussed why it's crucial for businesses to include impact initiatives in their daily operations. We shared how doing good can create a ripple effect that benefits everyone involved. Randy told a heartwarming story about his friend who offered cheaper merchant processing and donated part of the profits to charity. This initiative not only helped businesses save money but also made a significant difference in the community. The Power of Referrals and Long-Term Impact Randy and I emphasized the power of referrals and the lasting impact they have when you integrate giving as a core value of your business. Referrals aren't just about getting more clients; they're about building trust and creating a community that believes in the same values. Randy's 30-Day Impact Sprint Program Randy introduced his 30-day impact sprint program, designed to help businesses launch impactful initiatives efficiently. This program includes charity partner vetting, creating impact initiatives, and developing marketing strategies—all within 30 days. Randy explained that having a clear plan and commitment can make a world of difference in how businesses execute their charitable activities. Law of Reciprocity and the Value of Giving We dived into the concept of the Law of Reciprocity, which is all about the impact of giving regardless of financial status. Both Randy and I shared personal stories about how small financial contributions can bring immense joy and satisfaction. Randy talked about how giving should be a part of your brand's ethos, which builds trust and loyalty among customers and employees. Shifting Business Motivations from Wealth to Impact In our discussion, Randy shared his personal journey from being driven by financial success to focusing on making an impact. The quote, "If you want to make a million dollars a year, build a business that does 2 million, give a million dollars away, and you'll be the happiest millionaire on the planet," really hit home. Randy's motivation shifted when he realized the joy and satisfaction that came from supporting causes he cared about, like helping children in sports. Consumer Behavior and Business Trends Randy and I explored how consumer behavior is changing. More people prefer and trust brands that give back to the community. We shared some eye-opening statistics: 80% remember a brand's name more when they talk about their impact. Consumers are 4.5 times more likely to refer a brand that emphasizes its impact. 91% of employees are happier if their employer talks about their impact. 78% will pay more for a brand known for giving. 95% of millennial females trust brands more that share their impact. These stats underline the significance of being a business that not only aims for profit but also focuses on giving back. Authenticity in Impact Initiatives We discussed the importance of authentic impact. Businesses worry about coming off as insincere or just using charity for marketing. Randy advised making impact a core value, not just an add-on. Building a brand culture around genuine impact helps in gaining customer trust and loyalty. Impact in the Buyer's Journey Impact initiatives can capture and retain customer attention at various touchpoints—social media, websites, sales calls, and email newsletters. We talked about how incorporating impact-related messages can make a huge difference, especially with millennial females, who are more likely to remain loyal and advocate for brands that share their impact stories.

We explored the far-reaching benefits of weaving impact initiatives into business models. From boosting customer loyalty to building a happier workforce, the positive effects are clear. We hope our discussion inspires you to think about how your business can make a difference. Remember, even small steps towards giving can create a huge ripple effect.

Today on the Business With Impact podcast I want to talk about this thing that we call success.   Why is it that some people seem to accomplish so much in their day… so much that it looks like they're checking every box off of their well-designed to do list… while others who have the same big plans, the same grand vision, and strong work ethic, at the end of the day are left feeling like they really didn't get much done?   If you could fully tap into your vision, and your mission, and your potential, what would that look like for you? What would that change for your business, for your family? How would life change if you were able to be more productive, if you were able to hit your goals consistently? We're going to talk about all of that and more today...so let's dive in! --- Links mentioned in this episode:  → Download the secret podcast episodes HERE! → Get Rachel's Business Bundle goodies HERE! → Follow Rachel on Instagram: @rachelrmcmichael

Have you ever been told that in order to have predictability in your business and with your income, you have to have a recurring revenue stream?   Well on today's Business With Impact episode, I'm going to bust that myth right out of the water!   This is by far one of my favorite topics to discuss! But I have to warn you… predictability in our business doesn't come from some of those really fancy, exciting new marketing strategies that you'll see all over your social media feeds... Predictability in our business comes from understanding our numbers. I'm going to show you that no matter what your niche is and no matter what your service is… you, too, can have predictability in your online business! --- Links mentioned in this episode:  → Follow Rachel on Instagram: @rachelrmcmichael → Learn more about The Business With Impact Academy HERE. → Grab your FREE organic traffic checklist HERE!

Today on the Business With Impact podcast, we're talking about one of my favorite topics.   MINDSET.   But if you would've asked me several years ago if this is one of my favorite topics… I would have laughed at you, rolled my eyes, and groaned inwardly. I thought that business really can't just be about mindset.   But you know what I've learned? That MINDSET is absolutely one of the main things that separates a hustling overwhelmed entrepreneur from an Impactful CEO.   And while there is absolutely action and strategy that must take place in order for you to go where you need to go, and do what you need to do in your online business, the thing that will have you actually taking those actions and putting yourself out there is a strong mindset. And when you're willing to make these shifts in your business, they will set you up to be able to do the things you need to do. So let's dive in as we talk about four of these big lessons that I had to learn in my own business! --- Links mentioned in this episode:  → Follow Rachel on Instagram: @rachelrmcmichael → Learn more about The Business With Impact Academy HERE. → Grab your FREE organic traffic checklist HERE! → LISTEN to Rachel's interview with Dr. Shannon Irvine about changing your mindset!

In this episode we are speaking with Samantha Hoff, foundering of Pottery with a Purpose. She shares how a lifelong struggle with generalized anxiety and an early career spent in the fast-paced, gender-biased tech industry led her to seek mental and physical balance - as well as a source of joy, and a means of continuous inspiration - in a previous hobby...pottery making. Realizing that not everyone has time, space, or the budget to recreate all that a ceramics studio offers, she established Pottery with a Purpose, delivering the same creative benefits to others through sustainably-packaged and designed “do-it-yourself” kits containing everything necessary for at-home clay play. Samantha shares about her background and what inspired her to launch Pottery with a Purpose as well as how her mission drivers her every day.

Today we are celebrating the 200th episode since the launch of this podcast! It is so hard for me to believe that it's already been 200 episodes! I feel like it has just flown by and I know you can probably relate to that too in your life and in your business. Sometimes things that seem like they're going to take so long or they seem so hard at the beginning, they start to fly by once you catch that momentum and once you get systems, automation, and processes in place. We talk all the time in the Business With Impact Academy about not despising small beginnings, and about starting small and taking the next best step…and 200 episodes, friend, that's proof of what's possible when you keep going. Over the last 200 episodes we have had some incredible guest experts come and interview on the podcast and in honor of this milestone, I decided I wanted to do something a little bit different! We're going to share some clips from some of our favorite episodes and have compiled this great “recap” episode for you! I hope that today you'll finish listening to this episode feeling inspired, motivated, excited, and ready to do big things in your business! --- → Listen to all of these episodes in FULL: Jasmine's Episode: Finding the Courage to Speak Your Truth James' Episode: The Mistakes Most Entrepreneurs Make Part 1 + Part 2 Shannon's Episode: The Power Of Our Entrepreneurial Mind Nicole's Episode: Building a Bigger Legacy Mel's Episode: Wealth Management Brandon's Episode: Creating Powerful Messaging that Converts Selena's Episode: How to Get Free Publicity & Build Authority for Your Online Business → Grab Rachel's NEW 40 ways to bring more traffic to your offer checklist to help bring ORGANIC leads into your business! → Have a business question for Rachel?
