Are you being efficient in your business? If you are just starting out, this can actually be harmful to the growth of your business. Before you can become efficient, you need to be effective. To be effective, you need to know your clients well; what their needs, wants and desires are and how you can best serve them. Maybe you are just doing what is sufficient, to tick the box to say that you've done it. But is this enough to truly create a successful business? Listen in to this episode of the Global Practitioner podcast to learn more about efficient, sufficient or effective marketing and business strategies. The discussion in this episode was inspired by Luisa Zhou's Instagram post about "efficient or effective" business growth strategies. You can find her post on her Instagram profile here: https://www.instagram.com/luisa.zhou/

She's helped thousands of students to launch their own businesses that generate anywhere from 30K to 100K in less than a year. Her advice has been featured in numerous online and print publications including Forbes, Inc, Entrepreneur, Success magazine, and more.A graduate of Princeton University, Luisa majored in electrical engineering and minored in robotics. Before starting her own business, she worked as an International Space Station engineer for Boeing, a mobile payments start-up co-founder, and a digital advertising manager. She lives in New York City with her husband and goofball of a german shepherd, Falco.Here is my Instagram:instagram.com/luisa.zhou
Melanie Johnson & Jenn Foster, owners of Elite Online Publishing, interview Luisa Zhou about how to get your business to make SIX figures by building your audience. When Luisa was growing up, she dreamed of being the CEO of a major corporation. The child of Chinese immigrant parents, she was taught that a steady job and paycheck were the ticket to the American Dream -- and Luisa bought in. She wanted it all -- the power, the corner office, the big paycheck, and a closet full of Manolos. So she did the normal climb: and attended a prestigious university (Princeton) and majored in something safe (engineering) that would guarantee her a job out of college. By the time Luisa was 25, she was the big kahuna of a team managing millions of dollars in business each year. From the outside, she was really “making it” -- and she had the six-figure salary, high-rise condo, and proud parents to prove it. But on the inside, she wasn’t happy. So Luisa went all in and started her own business teaching people the digital advertising skills she'd learned from previous jobs. Today, Luisa teaches smart, successful people how to start their own six-figure plus business. She's helped hundreds of students make anywhere from 10K to 100K in just a few months. And she's been featured in numerous online and print publications including Forbes, Inc, Entrepreneur, and more.

Her advice has been featured in numerous online and print publications including Forbes, Inc, Entrepreneur, Success magazine, and more. Her strategy for building her current business to $1.1 Million in sales in its first 11 months. How she decided what to focus her energy on in the beginning. Why she focused on one product/program alone in the beginning. How she actively worked on being confident that her business was going to work. The exact process she did to shift her negative money beliefs. How she juggled her full time job at a digital advertising tech start-up while building her first online business to 6-figures (in 4 months) before she turned in her notice. A breakdown of her launch strategy (for launching courses and group programs) for creating $800K in sales per launch consistently, without affiliates, over the last 4 years. Her best tips, from helping students in over 30 different industries, to get started today and get your first paying clients on the side within the next 4 weeks.

Her advice has been featured in numerous online and print publications including Forbes, Inc, Entrepreneur, Success magazine, and more. Here are the highlights of this episode: 1:19 Luisa's ideal Client: My ideal client is someone who has a history of success; whether it's a corporate career or maybe an offline business but is looking to go online and really build a lean, profitable business for themselves. 1:46Problem Luisa helps solve: The principle problem aside from really figuring out what to offer, how to stand out, and how to really make sure it's really something that's going to sell. After we nail all that, it's really about how do you stand out from many websites or social media profiles out there. 2:25Typical symptoms that clients do before reaching out to Luisa: So, there are a few. The first is frustration; frustration by saying "look, I know that I'm really good in what I do, I have the career, the offline business, or whatever to show for, but why is it so hard?! It shouldn't be this hard!". And " what's going on, I'm doing all the stuff but where's the results?". That's really the number one symptom. There's also overwhelmed; there's the tags, the funnels, email marketing, everything.. "How do I go about doing it?". I would say that these are the two top emotions. 3:15What are some of the common mistakes that folks make before finding Luisa and her solution: One of the common mistakes is throwing stuff on the wall, trying to generate traffic and hoping something sticks. Maybe you do one post on Instagram, you do one on Facebook, and you do one on LinkedIn. And at the end of the day, you wonder why nothing has grown. It's really because you need to double down on one traffic source and figure out how to master it before you focus on anything else. The other mistake that I see a lot is not having the backend systems to support any new traffic. That's the secondary problem. So, solve the traffic problem first but what I do see, is that people started building an audience but they don't really have the way to handle sales or deliver on clients. So now they're hustling 24/7 not only to continue generating traffic but also to support the sales that they're making. And it's all about figuring out what's one product I can really just knock out of the park, how can I deliver that in a scalable way. Once I got that, I'm not going to fiddle with the backend anymore, I'm going to focus on getting more leads and sales. 4:41Luisa's Valuable Free Action (VFA): One thing that I would recommend doing is finding 3 people who are your potential clients online. For example, if you are working with people who are decision makers in the corporation, go on deal with them. Go any different areas. Maybe you are in a Facebook group, maybe your audience is on Instagram, those are really some of the most common ones. Reach out to three people. It doesn't have to be "hey, I'm so and so.. this is how I can help you. Do you want to buy from me?", it can be as simple as "hey I saw you ask this question about this thing that I can help with. I'm happy to chat with you a little bit more, provide some advice for free, and if you're interested, we can talk about how I can support you further".

Her advice has been featured in numerous online and print publications including Forbes, Inc, Entrepreneur, Success magazine, and more. Two words come to mind when I think about Luisa after getting the opportunity to talk to her for a whole hour: GENUINE and GENEROUS. Because today she’s gonna share with you every detail about how she grew her business from nothing to multiple millions of dollars. And when I say every last detail, I mean EVERY. LAST. DETAIL. This isn’t one of those stories that you’re going to hear and think, “That’s very inspiring, but I can’t relate. I don’t see myself in that story.” It’s going to be one of those stories that you hear and think, “That’s me, right now. She’s been where I am right now, and look what she’s accomplished. If she can do it, so can I.” Because Luisa has made every stop on the entrepreneurial journey. Every single one. And no matter where you are on your journey, you’ll see yourself in her story. Luisa and I talk about: What Luisa’s business looked like when she first started vs. what it looks like today, and exactly how she got here. Why she gave away her advice for free in the early stages of her business. How she got her first clients. Why Luisa believes in overdelivering. What to have in place in your business before you even consider paid traffic. Exactly how Luisa scaled her business from six figures to seven figures. How Luisa landed huge opportunities for exposure like Business Insider, Forbes + speaking at the Gary Vee Experience (even while identifying as an introvert). What happened when Luisa put in her notice at her day job. How Luisa guides people from employee to entrepreneur. The one question to ask to find out if your business idea is profitable. How Luisa changed her beliefs about money and value to reach the level she’s at today. Other beliefs Luisa had to change about herself to get where she is today.

It’s called the “Step-by-step Employee to Entrepreneur system to build your coaching business and replace your salary BEFORE you leave your 9-5.” *Grab your seat here >> My favorite quotes from Luisa: “If something is working, do more of it.” “What more can I do that is going to be directly growing my business?” “I found this thing, it works, I’m just going to keep doing it.” “Why not now, what are you waiting for?” “How can I do it more and better?” “The power of focus, the power of optimizing something that works and scaling it?” “Are you going to let your fears be bigger than your dreams or are you going to go for what you want?” “You’re only going to grow if you do things that make you uncomfortable.” Resources mentioned in this episode: Luisa’s free, on-demand masterclass*: “Step-by-step Employee to Entrepreneur system to build your coaching business and replace your salary BEFORE you leave your 9-5” Luisa’s* “15-Second Script that Gets You Your First 3 Coaching Clients (even if you're just starting out)” Luisa’s “9-5 Escape Velocity” Plan Bio: Luisa Zhou is the creator of the Employee to Entrepreneur system, which teaches people how to leave their day job and start their own six-figure plus business working for themselves.

Do you want to learn how to build a seven-figure business teaching something you already know? If so, stay tuned to hear my conversation with Luisa Zhou about how she built her business teaching people how to quit their day jobs. Luisa shares the failures she experienced when building her business, and how much time it took her to figure out what she was going to offer her audience. She also shares how she got started, and her decision to serve her people without worrying about how pretty everything was at the beginning. But before we jump into my conversation with Luisa, I wanted to let you know that we have rolled out a brand new service here at MiloTree called MiloTree BlogStart. We know that blogging can be a great way to start your online business, but we also know that it can be really challenging if you don't have a lot of technical skills.

Head on over to MiloTree BlogStart today and sign up to get your blog up and running! Now, on with the show! Learning from Your Mistakes Luisa had been trying to start her own business for several years before she began to build the one that would ultimately allow her to quit her 9-5. Learning what works and what does not work early helped Luisa launch her business successfully once she knew what she wanted to offer the world. One of Luisa's biggest mistakes was not getting to know her audience before she started trying to sell her knowledge. A second mistake was making a beautiful site but not working to get traffic to her page or building a connection with her audience. Once Luisa began doing things in the right order, she was making six figures in less than 4 months because she had learned what worked and what didn't. That was only possible because of the past 3 years of failures Luisa had gone through. Failure is not a setback, it's a lesson on how to move forward. The Need for Flexibility After those four successful months, Luisa left her day job to focus on a Facebook ad coaching business she was building. But Luisa began getting questions on how to build a business while still employed in a 9-5. After getting all of those questions, Luisa realized she could take the opportunity to coach people on how to start their own businesses. Luisa didn't start out with a plan to coach others, but when the opportunity presented itself, she knew she had the skills and experience, so she thought, why not? If you hold too tightly to your dreams and plans, you could potentially miss huge opportunities that might not fit in with your plan for the moment, but could ultimately prove to be more lucrative and more satisfying. Creating A Group Program When people started reaching out to Luisa about building a business and leaving their jobs, she already had experience creating a new business. So, Luisa worked with a few clients before ultimately deciding to create a group program. A group program is a hybrid of a course and a coaching program. There is course content, but it's not completely self-paced. Luisa also comes in and answers questions, holds coaching calls, etc. Luisa created the content as she went along. The questions and comments she received each week helped her form the content for the next week. The people in Luisa's group were shocked that she somehow always answered the questions they were going to ask. It was because she listened and learned what her audience needed. Luisa also made sure that she was involved personally with everyone in her group. Reaching out to the ones struggling, messaging them, having calls, and investing in everyone who was part of her group. Scaling The Business After the huge success of her first group program, Luisa built up more content to be able to offer a larger, six-month group program. She knew the number of people she needed in order to make X dollar amount because she had been experimenting with smaller groups. She invited more customers this time around and increased the price of her program, and she had a six-figure launch. Luisa used a combination of Facebook, Periscope, and webinars to get clients for the new group. She created a 5-day challenge to pique interest and drive sales. She took the income number she wanted to reach and worked to drive that many sales for the group program. And she hit it with a $100K launch. Educating Yourself Luisa took many courses over the years as she prepared to start her own business. When she became successful, she hired coaches of her own. Luisa knew that she needed to be willing to learn anything necessary to run her business. Even if you don't use the strategies that you learn, you will broaden your perspective and have ideas that are not your own. It can be hard to invest in something and only get one piece of the puzzle you need. Luisa was often discouraged by learning all the things she didn't know she needed to know. Focus on One Product Some people want to sell everything under the sun, and this simply doesn't work. The work that goes into building your knowledge, building the product, gaining an audience, and earning testimonials is incredibly time-consuming. And you must do this for every service you want to offer. Once you've built a product, focus on making sales rather than always having to build the next thing. You're going to be learning as you go, so spend your learning time fine-tuning what's already working for you. Biggest Next Step If you want to quit your 9-5 and be a successful entrepreneur, this is what you need to do: Figure out what you have to offer Luisa says you can't just offer anything and expect to replace your income. The best thing you can offer is some kind of premium consulting or coaching. If you are selling your knowledge for $1K per client, you will be able to support yourself in quitting your regular job. If you are selling a $100-500 course, you must sell many, many of them before replacing the income of a steady job. Once you know what you can offer to the world, focus on going out and connecting with potential clients Figure out where your potential clients may be online. Find them and mark on your calendar when you will take the time to connect, share value, and engage with them. After a couple of weeks, people will begin recognizing you and you can offer free coaching calls. After the call, you can pitch what more your clients can get from you for a fee. Once you have three to five clients, you can start getting testimonials, and figure out the best way to help others. Use the revenue you've made to set up your website so you can reach the audience you know you want to reach Set up an email list for your audience. After this, go back to focusing on getting potential clients. The key here is to do the things that move the needle and stop doing the things that don't matter. Connecting with people is the thing that moves the needle more than anything else. If you don't make connections with others, you will never build a successful business.

Luisa Zhou shares how she went from Princeton grad, to climbing the corporate ladder, to quitting her 9 to 5 once and for all to start her own business as one of the most sought after business coaches. Long description: I absolutely loved chatting with Luisa Zhou, probably one of the hardest working millennials around. She is all about the hustle which I think is awesome. She has gotten to where she is today in her career because she knows that the only way to success is to work hard. That and some other pieces of wisdom she shares in this episode. The reason I wanted to talk with her for this episode is because she has some great advice for starting a side hustle, and then turning that into your main hustle while still working full-time. I always cringe when I hear someone’s quit their job to pursue their dream, but clearly didn’t have a solid business plan or enough in savings to sustain them throughout the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. That’s a big reason why I kept my side hustle as just that for 5 years until I was financially ready and was actually earning enough from my business to make me feel secure enough to leave my job. I certainly didn’t have $100,000 like Luisa did, but I had enough in my bank account that would basically last me a year if for some reason I couldn’t earn a penny during that first year on my own. Beyond talking about the financial aspect if starting your own business, Luisa also shared some other great tips on how to success and how to promote yourself even at your 9 to 5 so you can grow in your career. Important Lessons When Starting Out on Your Own Learn from your failures, don’t quit because of them. Stay humble. Figure out how to be a leader for your community. Stand up for what you believe in. How to Promote Yourself at Work (without sounding arrogant) Study how success people around you present and talk about themselves. Speak about your projects with enthusiasm. Sharing your accomplishments as stories. Grow a thick skin. Helpful Resources Sign up to Luisa’s Weekend Empire Challenge.

Episode #127 with Luisa Zhou: Push Through Your Fears and Just Do It! by Nada Lena
Hey there, so glad you’re listening today! This episode with Luisa Zhou is all about focusing in and growing your business past that million dollar mark. It’s kind of a mini case study of “what to do right” for your business! Luisa Zhou is definitely a strong, multi-passionate woman. But even though she found herself…
Ever since she was a little girl growing, Luisa Zhou wanted to be the CEO of a major corporation. She just knew that the power, the money, the prestige that came with this would make her happy. As a young adult, she began to climb the corporate ladder and said “...on the outside, things looked good. I had a great job and a great salary, but the truth was, I wanted more.” What was the 'MORE' that this self-described introvert was searching for? Afterall, she’d been an International Space Station engineer, a mobile payments start-up co-founder, and a digital advertising manager for companies looking to fuel their marketing with artificial intelligence. She wanted to to start her own business but… she had to overcome the fears that were holding her back. The fear of failing, of giving up the safety and prestige of her corporate life. One day she asked herself a question that would change her life… WHY NOT? Why not me? Why not now? What’s the worst that could happen? She began to embrace this 'why not mentality'... She got comfortable with being uncomfortable. She faced her fears and went from employee to entrepreneur. In this interview, she breaks it all down and walks us through her journey: How her first group coaching program launch went from a complete bust to a six-figure success. How she used Facebook challenges to grow her business. And the EXACT steps she took to generate over $800K in sales in her first course launch! Best of all, you’ll discover how embracing Luisa’s “Why Not?” mentality can help you to go BIG and take massive action! Thank you SO much for checking out the Deconstructing Success show.
