But the biggest thing I would have changed was calming myself. You really need an exit coach for that, and that's what I hope we can provide for other female founders. People can tell you, ‘Slow down. It's okay. It's going to get done.' If I had slowed down a bit, it would have turned out even better.” (17:45 | Carrie Kerpen) “The thing I wish most female founders knew is that the more money you're able to figure out how to pull out, the more you'll be worth at exit.” (20:56 | Carrie Kerpen) “It's really mission-based, and I want this business to make a lot of money because I want to show women what can be done.” (42:39 | Carrie Kerpen) “Ideas are great, but executing on that idea is really important, and there's no better demonstration of execution than a strong focus on generating revenue.” (49:01 | Carrie Kerpen) Connect with Carrie Kerpen:http://www.instagram.com/carriekerpenReport on female founded exits: closetheexitgap.com Join Lindsay's group mentorship, Marketing Made Simple for Small Business:https://www.lindsaypinchuk.com/mmsfall2024Subscribe to the Dear FoundHer... newsletter: https://lindsaypinchuk.myflodesk.com/foundherfridaysDon't forget to follow Lindsay on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lindsaypinchukPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm Hosted on Acast.

Understanding how to build a sellable business is a game changer. Carrie Kerpen is the founder of The Whisper Group, an exit-readiness advisory firm dedicated exclusively to women-owned businesses.Carrie has built and sold one of the world's first social media agencies and has continued helping female founders build and sell their businesses and live their lives fully. She is on a mission to get as much money in the hands of women as possible. Carrie has been a great friend and supporter of Adrienne and the She Leads LIVE conferences from the early days and has contributed her wisdom consistently.Carrie says that women often start businesses driven by passion but rarely think about how they will exit. It's imperative to consider an exit strategy from day one. Creating sellable businesses rather than focusing on immediate monetization is a key point Carrie is very passionate about.She says that so much about exiting is not just about the business but about us personally and being honest and relatable rather than projecting an overly polished image.Many business owners face regret post-exit due to lack of financial planning. Women must realize that small businesses can exit with six times more value and we need to embrace the idea of extracting wealth from our businesses in order to provide the security and power for ourselves and our families that we so rightly deserve.Notes:

In this episode of Welcome to Eloma, Carrie Kerpen, Former CEO and Founder of Likeable, talks about the process of preparing a business for exit and successfully negotiating an eight-figure sale.

Carrie believes that building the best possible team and finding joy in your work is the most essential thing for long-term success. Carrie's ultimate goal is to help women entrepreneurs make as much money as possible and leave a positive legacy.Quotes“Your business is part of your legacy. So if you're selling your business, you are entrusting part of your legacy to a new owner. And that's a really big deal, especially for women. I mean, men too, of course, but I think for women, we put our every ounce of everything into those businesses, our heart, our soul, our, you know, and so. You know, if you're selling it to someone, it better be a good legacy for you.” 14:01 “Focus on what is scalable and repeatable. Because if you are, and this is specifically for services businesses, a lot of the time, if you are just charging by the hour and doing whatever somebody wants, yeah, it's the fastest road to burnout there is. You have to say, this is my program. This is my offering. This is how it works.” 27:26“There's not a moment in your entrepreneurial journey that will not pass, good or bad. There's not a moment in your home life, good or bad, that will not pass. Time is your friend and is also not your friend. There's never anything that lasts forever, nothing good lasts forever and nothing bad lasts forever.” 35:47LinksConnect with Carrie Kerpen:Social Media Handles: @carriekerpen on all social platformsWebsite URLS: www.carriekerpen.com Email: carriekerpen@gmail.comConnect with KileyLearn more at WelcomeToEloma.comWork with us at RAYNEIX.com Newsletter Signup: RIXNewsletter.com Linkedin: Kiley Peters & RAYNE IXInstagram: @kileypeters & @rayneix Email: info@rayneix.com

Carrie Kerpen is Co-founder and CEO of Likeable Media; host of All the Social Ladies podcast; and author of Work It: Secrets for Success from the Boldest Women in Business. In this episode Lauren and Carrie discuss:How to stand out with social mediaWomen and moneyDealing with financial anxietyBenefits of building a Fab Personal Advisory Board (PAB)Practicing boundaries and saying “no” more often to gain powerFailure and challenges – how you can fail fantasticallyThe importance of demonstrating vulnerability to demonstrate confidence and leadership while leveling up Key takeaways:Recognize that social media is a highlight reel, you need to find your own highlight reel that is truly and authentically you. No presence on social media is a presence and comes across that you don't want to be found – if individuals are looking for you, they will then look at someone else.Women must train themselves to push past being risk averse by becoming educated, interacting with women in a safe space, and negotiating around compensation and salary while utilizing a “mental mute” to allow negotiators to come to you. An advisory board comprised of individuals that have experience in areas that you would like to improve upon will help you enhance your life and get your career to the next level.It's important to not just fail and learn from it, but to be willing to share this failure with others to help them feel okay with their own failures. “When women work together, we are so much more powerful.” – Carrie Kerpen “You have to be really really intentional about your desire to live the life that you want.”– Carrie Kerpen “Failure is essential to be able to grow and you do not build resilience without experiencing some form of failure.” – Carrie Kerpen Reach out to Carrie at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carriekerpen/Get the book, Work It: Secrets for Success from the Boldest Women in Business here:Book: https://amzn.to/3xHuZpZ Listen to the podcast, All the Social Ladies here:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/all-the-social-ladies/id858239631 Reach out to Lauren at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurenherring/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LaurenHerringCareerExpert Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenherring IMPACT Group Website: www.impactgrouphr.com Earn Your Worth Website: www.earnyourworthcareers.com IMPACT Group LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impact-group/ Earn Your Worth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/earn-your-worth-careers/ Get the book, Take Control of Your Job Search here:Paperback Book: https://amzn.to/3tibaCz ebook: https://amzn.to/3dk4Cy5

Entrepreneur and CEO of Likeable Media Carrie Kerpen shares her badass secrets for women who want to crush it in business. Carrie has built a successful business around HER life, rather than building her life around her business. Author of Work It: Secrets For Success From the Boldest Women in Business, Carrie shares her go-to advice ond ‘work-life integration’, alignment, and how women can be their boldest, badass selves.
In this episode, Carrie normalizes and makes sense of the “mom juggle.” She elaborates and emphasizes on how we must subscribe to the philosophy that we CAN have It all, but you cannot have it all AND do It at the same time. We must have self acceptance, be focused, deliberate, and again, accept and face the fact that we really are juggling things. Once you have self acceptance, you will be a happier person. And of course, we are human, so it is okay to let somethings fall. Listen to hear more on that “Do It” attitude that Carrie has, the one that we all crave. She teaches us how to pick ourselves up at the times that truly seem to be the lowest. More about Carrie:Carrie is an author, speaker, and entrepreneur. In her own words, "I'm what you might call an “accidental” entrepreneur. Despite having a rather loud inner self-critic, I built a multimillion-dollar social media agency at a time when there was no one to teach you about social media marketing. Together, my husband and I did it without any formal education on how to start or run a business. In fact, before I started our company, I didn’t have a single day of agency experience." Dave and Carrie now own multiple businesses and she currently serves as the CEO of Likeable Media. Her new book, WORK IT: Secrets For Success From The Boldest Women In Business, tells the truth about the “secret” to success for women today. (Hint: there’s no ONE secret for anyone!)

Carrie Kerpen, CEO and co-founder of Likeable Media, an award-winning digital content studio, joins Host Deirdre Breakenridge on Women Worldwide. Carrie is a regular podcaster, and just recently launched the 100th episode of her show, All The Social Ladies. She's a keynote speaker who discusses social media and women in business and is a regular contributor to Forbes and Inc. magazine. As an early adopter of social media and technology, Carrie discusses the impact social media has on women and how it can be a confidence detractor. On the show, she mentions the Highlight Reel and how you can get caught up in the “best" of what people are sharing via their social channels. Viewing their success and then making comparisons to your own life and career is a confidence detractor rather than a confidence builder. Carrie points out that the Highlight Reel doesn’t present everything behind a person’s business or life; it doesn't show challenges or weaknesses. Keeping this in mind helps you to realize that the key to social media is your vulnerability and authenticity and how it's okay to ask for help. Carrie also offers her best advice on building your brand and your story; not just what you’re trying to say, but why you’re trying to communicate your narrative. A little more about Carrie Kerpen … Carrie refers to herself as a (Non)trepreneur. The launch of her business was atypical. She married her husband and co-founder at a baseball stadium in the world's largest sponsored wedding. The wedding was a word of mouth sensation that was featured in major media outlets including the New York Times, ABC World News Tonight, and the CBS Early Show. Her company, Likeable Media was born as a result. You can connect with Carrie on LinkedIn and on Twitter @carriekerpen
