On the Profitable Joyful Consulting podcast, I teach you how to increase your profits and enjoy your business more. In this episode, you'll learn how my client Kerry, an IT consultant, crossed the million dollar mark.  Kerry has been with me for a journey across the million dollar mark. I know people are always curious - how do you get to $1M in your business? - so I had Kerry break it down for you in this episode. People associate growth with the number of hours worked, and I do my best to disabuse my clients of that notion. It's truly not about working more, it's about working smarter.  When Kerry first came to me, she and her team were exhausted. They were working the absolute maximum numbers they could work. They were fried and they were sad because they were missing out on other things that really matter, like their families. Their success was unsustainable, and they needed to do things a different way.  In this episode, you'll discover: 0:40 Why it's not about hard work (and what It's about instead)  1:27 How a perfect client profile brings perfect clients into being 2:55 How Kerry shifted from being fried to working exclusively in her Joy and Genius Zone™ 4:32 Why the traditional consulting model didn't work for Kerry's firm 6:26 Exactly what Kerry believes made the biggest difference 7:25 How Kerry would structure revenue if she started over 8:12 The key difference maker (besides the revenue model)  9:12 The results of Kerry's work with Samantha  10:56 The biggest intangible benefits to Kerry - thinking bigger 11:42 Kerry talks about the idea of being limitless  12:38 Kerry grew her revenue 70% to take her business across the million dollar mark - during the pandemic 14:06 The top three lessons Kerry has learned from her business' growth 14:42 The surprising reaction Kerry's customers had to the new pricing model 15:18 What Kerry learned about herself and what she would tell her former self Tune into this episode to get ideas and inspiration for your own business.

The thought of transitions seems to be a scary thing for most entrepreneurs especially if the transition involves hitting a pause on the entrepreneur journey to focus on yourself, your goals and dreams together with your loved ones. Success can somewhat be addicting that we find it hard to stop as we always want to be on the go.

Would you ever wear boots on the first date? In this episode, Kerry Coddett and I talk about our high school and college lives. Plus, Kerry reveals her first date ever and her worst date ever. Kerry Coddett [Cah-dit] is a New York-based stand-up comedian, actress, and writer. Touted as “inimitable” by The Huffington Post and as “a rising star” by The Interrobang, she has also been featured in numerous publications, including Entertainment Weekly, Mic.com, Elite Daily, Splitsider, Elle.com, Buzzfeed, and Salon. Growing up, Kerry was never shy – she always wanted to be an actress and performer. In school, she was outstanding and even got to skip two grades. At first, Kerry got into the gifted school for nerds. However, she physically fought every single day in high school and ended up going to four different schools. Kerry fought for her respect – she didn’t want anyone to feel like they could get away with saying negative things about her. She only fought girls for the record, and doesn’t hit people as an adult. Adults handle shit differently, people will call the cops now – high school kids don’t call the police. Kerry speaks about briefly joining a gang - she wasn’t in super deep. Kerry just stopped getting off the subway at that stop and took her ass home. Some people have trouble getting out of a gang, but Kerry didn’t have any issues. She didn’t bang super hard; she only dabbled in gang life. When you get deeper into gang activity, it’s because of your neighborhood. The people in her gang weren’t in Kerry’s neighborhood, so it had nothing to do with her. At the time, Kerry couldn’t even tell you why she joined a gang. Most likely, it was because of her high school boyfriend. In college, Kerry had two boyfriends – those were the only two people she was having sex with. Kerry has never killed it and hasn’t had sex for ten months; she wrote that joke two years ago. Online dating isn’t right for Kerry; she doesn’t like texting, so she can’t get to know someone that way. She asked one guy to call her, and it just fell apart. Kerry thinks that people shouldn’t waste time with online messaging. Then, Kerry explains why she doesn’t want to date a comic. Stay tuned as Kerry speaks about her fashion career, her first date ever, and her worst date ever.

But when I went in-house it was just such a different environment. … it was a B2B software company with a very large sales force and for some reason, legal had to attend the sales conferences. At my first sales conference, they were doing some presentation and all of a sudden music starts and from all of the exits men come out dressed as pirates and women come out dressed as wenches and sit on men’s laps, singing about pirates and the company. … I remember telling my husband afterward that I just couldn’t believe this was what I was doing with my life.”   More about our guest Kerry McLean at Intuit Kerry McLean on LinkedIn

Have you taken any time lately to consider why you do the work you do? And maybe even think about the bigger picture of why and how you’re leveraging paid traffic to accomplish big things? In this episode of The Art of Paid Traffic, I interview one of my FB ADvantage students, Kerry Swetmon, about how she’s created an awesome-ly successful  business for herself managing Facebook ads for other entrepreneurs and small businesses. It’s students like Kerry who represent the big picture in my own business. It’s incredibly rewarding for me to play even a small roll in her entrepreneurial journey. Kerry’s the founder of SystemEnvy.com, a business she started to help busy entrepreneurs with the systems and processes that matter most when it comes to successful marketing and operations. She’s been a student of mine for just about a year now and since we first started working together, I’ve watched Kerry make a name for herself as a uniquely-niched Facebook Ads expert. Now, she’s spending most of her time serving her ideal clients through Facebook Ads management services.  Not to mention, some pretty “high profile” clients. Kerry’s business didn’t start as a Facebook Ads “agency.”  But she’s made some smart decisions that helped her to organically transition into doing the type of work that allows her to live life on her own terms. Still, Kerry’s currently working to scale some specific areas of her Facebook Ads management business so she can spend even more time on the stuff that matters most in her life (like her husband and 3 kids). So in this episode, we’re talking all about how to operate and scale a highly-successful Facebook Ads management business. This conversation was a lot of fun because Kerry and I put our heads together a bit to work through some specific solutions for scaling her business. We cover a whole range of things that almost all entrepreneurs eventually face as their businesses mature. You’ll find this show eye-opening and value packed — and get ready to walk away with real insight on what it’s like to grow and scale a successful Facebook Ads management business. On Today’s Episode, You’ll Learn: How Kerry grew her business 3x in 45 days while juggling family time with her husband and 3 kids Why niching down allowed Kerry to organically make a name for herself among an entire community of experts The 5-Step Framework for Scaling a Successful Facebook Ads Management Business Which systems and processes Kerry uses to onboard new clients — even while she’s growing and training her team Where to begin when you’re ready to scale your business so you can step away from time to time, without everything coming to a screeching halt How Kerry hired team members to handle the most time-consuming aspects of her work (design and working with Power Editor) The top mistakes Kerry’s clients make when they first start working with Facebook Ads Kerry’s pricing strategy for her services And a lot more… Plus, you can get access to an exclusive download I put together just for today’s episode. This PDF takes you through the 5-Step Framework for Scaling a Successful Facebook Ads Management Business. The Framework will show you, step-by-step, how to scale ad management offerings for maximum impact (and maximum entrepreneurial freedom).
