Making changes in your business doesn't have to feel messy or overwhelming. In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, Carly and Joe introduce the SMOOTH method, a step-by-step framework to help you sequence changes, manage your energy, communicate with transparency, and lock in the lessons you learn. If you've ever struggled to implement improvements without burning out or losing momentum, this method will give you the clarity and structure you need to move forward with confidence.Q&As From The EpisodeHow do I know which changes to make first in my business?Start by sequencing smartly. Not every change needs to happen at once, and some are dependent on others. Look at the order of operations: what's foundational and what relies on that foundation. Begin with the changes that unlock or support others, so you don't waste time redoing work.I'm worried about overwhelming myself while making improvements. How do I avoid burnout?The Smooth Method emphasizes managing your load and energy. Take on one change at a time, and give yourself breaks between projects. Running a business while trying to improve it is demanding, and protecting your time and sanity ensures you don't stall out before seeing results.How do I make sure changes actually stick and pay off?First, track your success with clear metrics. Define what “done” and “successful” look like before you start. Then, after implementation, harvest the lessons by reflecting and documenting what worked and what didn't. This way, every improvement becomes a repeatable process rather than a one-off experiment. Okay, this might be the craziest offer we've ever made. We're giving away a solopreneur platform that normally costs five hundred dollars a year…For twenty-five bucks. And not for a month, not for a year… forever.All you have to do is pre-order our new book: Solopreneur Business for Dummies.When we first went solo, we thought we could just Google our way through it. But the advice out there? It was built for startups with teams and money, not someone trying to do it all themselves. We kept thinking: “There's gotta be a better way.”So we made one.

Making changes in your business is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming when everything seems important at once. In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, Carly and Joe walk you through the PRIORITY Framework, a practical tool to help you decide which changes are worth your time, energy, and resources. From spotting critical survival moves to weighing risks, opportunities, and alignment with your vision, this framework will help you cut through the noise and focus on what really matters. If you've ever felt stuck staring at a never-ending list of “should-dos,” this conversation will show you how to turn it into a clear, strategic plan.Popular Questions and Answers From The EpisodeHow do I know which business changes to tackle first?Start with survival. If something threatens the health of your business, like a major client loss or a broken system, it automatically goes to the top of your list. Joe calls this the “Peril” step in the PRIORITY framework. Handle what keeps the doors open before anything else.What if I have a change in mind, but I don't have the skills or resources to pull it off?Then it's not a priority...yet. Implementation and resources are key filters in the framework. If you can't realistically execute the change now, put it on a “someday/maybe” list instead of draining energy and momentum.How do I avoid wasting time on changes that don't move my business forward?Ask whether the change creates real opportunity and aligns with your vision. Will it grow revenue, reduce stress, or bring you closer to your long-term goals? If it's just a shiny object, it might feel exciting, but it won't serve your bigger picture.

A Dallas ICE facility was shot up by 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, who ended up killing two detained migrants and injuring a third. He indiscriminately fired from a neighboring rooftop and was targeting ICE agents, none of whom were harmed. Jahn then fatally turned the gun on himself. Burglars like to look for an open bathroom window as their preferred method of breaking into a home. They also don't necessarily prefer to do the breaking and entering at nighttime, but during the early evening. Plus, they're mostly looking for jewelry and cash, anything easy to carry. The Harlem Globetrotters are coming to Cali next January and February! They've played over 27,000 games!

You've worked hard to get your solopreneur business off the ground, but what happens when things start to stall, or worse, head in the wrong direction? In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, Carly and Joe dig into the “improving” phase of the Solopreneur Success Cycle. They uncover the seven most common failure modes that can quietly sabotage your progress, from burnout and stagnation to external threats and even your own mindset. Whether your business is thriving or just surviving, these insights will help you spot trouble early, course-correct with confidence, and keep your business aligned with the life you want to live.Popular Questions and Answers From The EpisodeWhat's the first thing solopreneurs should address when improving their business?If there's an existential threat, that has to come first. These are big, business-ending issues—like a major competitor undercutting your prices, new technology disrupting your industry, or a business model that simply isn't working. Before worrying about tweaks or small improvements, solopreneurs need to tackle these threats head-on to ensure survival.What are the “seven failure modes” solopreneurs should watch out for?Joe outlined seven common failure modes:Misalignment – your business no longer matches your goals or interests.Overload – you're working too much and burning out.Money problems – not enough revenue or profit to sustain you.External risks – outside forces like platform changes or new competitors.Stagnation – growth stalls or customers start slipping away.Execution failure – not delivering quality results to clients.Psychological barriers – mindset issues like fear, procrastination, or undercharging.Recognizing which one you're facing is the first step toward fixing it.How do solopreneurs know when it's time to reimagine their business?It's time to reimagine when your business stops serving your life. Even if it's profitable and running smoothly, if you've lost enthusiasm, feel misaligned, or your personal goals have shifted, that's a signal to step back. Sometimes improving your business isn't about fixing broken systems—it's about reshaping it so it supports the life you want today, not the one you wanted years ago.

After spending so much time laying the groundwork in the planning phase, it's finally time to take action. In this episode, Carly and Joe step into the doing phase of the Solopreneur Success Cycle, where strategies move from paper to practice. They share how to run your business with intention, capture issues before they slip through the cracks, and decide what deserves your immediate attention versus what can wait. From simple fixes to documenting big-picture improvements, this is the phase where solopreneurs turn ideas into execution and momentum into results.Important Questions From The Episode:Why is it important to document issues instead of just fixing them right away?Because not every problem is urgent. Writing issues down helps you pause, evaluate the impact, and decide whether it needs immediate attention or can wait until you're in the improvement phase. It also preserves the insights you have in the moment or ideas you might forget months later when you finally revisit the problem.What framework can solopreneurs use to prioritize what to work on?The Eisenhower Matrix is a powerful tool. It helps you separate tasks into four categories: urgent and important, urgent but not important, important but not urgent, and neither urgent nor important. Doing this allows solopreneurs to focus on what truly drives the business forward rather than just reacting to whatever feels pressing in the moment.How can writing things down reduce stress for solopreneurs?Carrying everything in your head creates mental clutter and even sleepless nights. By getting issues, tasks, and ideas out of your brain and into a trusted system, whether that's a notebook, worksheet, or an app, you free up mental space. You'll rest easier knowing nothing important will slip through the cracks. Okay, this might be the craziest offer we've ever made.

Ever wonder which tools and services you actually need as a solopreneur, and which ones are just shiny distractions? In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, Carly and Joe revisit one of the most debated sections of their book, Solopreneur Business For Dummies: setting up your company's tools and services. From creating rock-solid SOPs to knowing when to outsource, to avoiding the dreaded “tool overload,” they break down how to make smarter choices that actually save you time. Plus, they share how AI can help today (and where it still falls short). If you've ever felt stuck between doing it all yourself, hiring help, or buying yet another app, you won't want to miss this conversation.Three Episode TakeawaysShould I outsource tasks as a solopreneur or keep doing everything myself? You don't need employees to be a solopreneur, but you also don't have to do everything alone. Outsourcing to contractors or companies for specific tasks can save time and prevent burnout. The key is to outsource before you're desperate. This way, you have time to properly train someone and set up processes that work.How do I know which tools are worth paying for? Start by identifying the specific problem you want to solve, then choose tools that are simple, affordable, and easy to integrate with your current setup. Avoid chasing “shiny objects” that solve problems you don't even have yet. Use free trials strategically and actually test them on a real task during the trial period, and start with monthly payments until you're confident it's a good fit.What should come first: documenting processes or finding tools and services? Always start with documenting your processes in the form of standard operating procedures (SOPs). If you try to outsource or automate a broken process, you'll only make the problems bigger. SOPs give you a clear, repeatable checklist that works whether you do it yourself, hand it off to someone else, or use a tool to automate it. Okay, this might be the craziest offer we've ever made.

Think of onboarding like a marriage: you don't stop showing up once the vows (or the sale) are made. In this episode, they unpack why onboarding is the delight phase of the buyer's journey, how to prevent buyer's remorse, and the small but powerful touches that turn customers into lifelong fans (and evangelists). If you've ever wondered how to make sure your clients feel like they “married the right business,” this one's for you.A Few Q&As From The EpisodeWhy is onboarding such a critical step after a sale? Answer: Because the sale isn't the finish line, it's the starting point of the customer relationship. Onboarding reassures buyers they made the right decision, prevents buyer's remorse, sets clear expectations, and begins building long-term trust.What are some simple ways solopreneurs can make onboarding effective?Answer: Start with a warm welcome, whether it's a personalized email, a short video, or even a handwritten note. Follow up with clear next steps, resources, or tutorials to help customers get value quickly. The key is making clients feel seen, supported, and confident right away.How does great onboarding impact future sales and referrals?Answer: Thoughtful onboarding turns new customers into fans and fans into evangelists. When clients feel cared for and successful with your product or service, they're far more likely to renew, upgrade, or tell their friends about you, which makes lead generation and sales much easier down the line.

Sales doesn't have to feel slimy or stressful. In fact, when you treat it as service, selling becomes a natural extension of helping people. In this episode, Carly and Joe break down the planning side of sales for solopreneurs, from understanding levels of touch to qualifying leads and nailing your quick pitch. If the thought of selling makes you cringe, this conversation will help you rethink the process and build a sales plan that actually feels good.Important Questions Answered In This EpisodeHow can solopreneurs approach sales without feeling sleazy? By reframing sales as service. Instead of trying to push a product, focus on finding people who have problems you can genuinely solve. When you approach conversations with the goal of helping rather than selling, it becomes natural, authentic, and far less intimidating, even for introverts.What does “level of touch” mean in sales planning? The level of touch refers to how much interaction you have with a potential customer. High-touch sales involve more personal engagement, like coaching calls or consultations, while low-touch or no-touch sales rely on things like websites, emails, or quick transactions for lower-priced products. Solopreneurs need to match their sales process to both their offering and the time they can realistically invest.Why is qualifying leads so important? Not every prospect is worth your time. By qualifying leads, making sure they have a problem you can solve, the authority to make a decision, and the budget to buy, you avoid wasting hours chasing “tire kickers.” A simple system for filtering leads upfront saves time, energy, and frustration later on.
