Welcome to episode 177 of Profit Boss® Radio! Today, I'm reaching into the archives and sharing a past episode that's as relevant today as it was when I shared it as episode 2. In this replay, I'm speaking with serial entrepreneur Allison Maslan. Not only has she built a business empire, and been named one of the “Top Women Entrepreneurs Who Inspire” by Self Made Magazine, but as one of my business mentors, she's responsible for so much of my business growth and success. Our conversation is all about women in business - entrepreneurship, financial independence, managing finances as a couple, money mindsets, hiring, selling, exit strategies, and more. Whether you've heard this one before, or missed it the first time, this one is packed with a ton of value that's worth its weight in gold. Here's what you'll find out in this week's episode of Profit Boss® Radio: Where does the courage to start your own business come from? Planning an exit strategy for your business. Why every woman should maintain financial independence. The importance of learning from your financial mistakes. Managing money as a couple. Shifting your money mindset from scarcity to abundance. Achieving success by embracing rejection. Why successful business owners are not victims of circumstance — success is a choice! A great tip for those who are afraid to sell. How to develop thick skin as a business woman. What to do when a prospect thinks your product/service costs too much? Why hiring is an investment and how to recruit top talent. How much should you pay yourself as the business owner? Saving as an entrepreneur and setting a financial freedom target. Strategies for couples who have conflicting money mindsets.

Allison Maslan is the President of Business Coaching Agency. She was named “One of the Top Women Entrepreneurs Who Inspire” by Self Made Magazine. She is the bestselling author of Blast Off!: The Surefire Success Plan to Launch Your Dreams into Reality and the new book Scale or Fail: How to Build Your Dream Team, Explode Your Growth, and Let Your Business Soar. Podcast Highlights Who is Allison Maslan? Besides being a business owner at heart, Allison is also a trapeze artist. When she discovered that you could actually do what you see in the circus, she began training with a five generation circus family and now she can really fly. She even built a trapeze ring in her backyard. Allison grew up in an entrepreneurial family. Her father built the largest chain of women’s clothing stores in the US. Watching her dad build his dream inspired her to build her own. If you want something go create it yourself. At the age of 19 Allison started her own business and by the age of 25 it had evolved into a full service advertising business. Like most entrepreneurs, she had no idea how to run her first business. Getting It Right The plan comes in the doing. When you have a product or service, you just need to put it out there. Don’t worry, be crappy. Get it out and then perfect it along the way. You have gifts inside of you, your purpose is to share them with the world. The idea of perfection keeps people small. Getting Unstuck If you are using the same mindset and strategies in scaling your business as you did when you first started your business, you are going to fail. You have to rebuild your company from a higher level. To scale you have to take big leaps, you have to be able to stop micromanaging your team and even be willing to let yourself go. Scaling Your Business You will hit a wall if you are the one providing the product or service. You have to train other people to do what you do if you want to scale. Your clients just want to be taken care of and it doesn’t have to be just you. Scaling your business really means to duplicate and multiply. There are five phases to scaling your business: the solopreneur, the pioneer, the ringleader, the co-creator, and the visionary. Each phase comes with its own set of challenges. If you want to scale, you have to build a team and be willing to let go of the controls. Scaling can take time or it can happen as soon as three years in. Scaling can happen too fast as well, if it grows too soon it can become unstable and fall apart. The longer you can stay with a single focus, the more stable it will be for years to come. It’s time to scale when you keep hitting the wall and are frustrated with working all the time for the same results. Being Present Business owners can be really hard on themselves, it’s important to recognize your accomplishments along the way. You should be enjoying the process. Having a mentor is crucial. New level, new devil. Every time you get to a new level of business, you will face things you have never faced before. Reference: Scale or Fail: How to Build Your Dream Team, Explode Your Growth, and Let Your Business Soar, Allison Maslan Allison’s Takeaway Make decisions from where you are going, not from where you are at. To really scale you have to pretend that what you want has already happened and work backwards. It’s amazing what happens when you start taking action, the people show up, the money shows up, the support shows up, but you have to be willing to take the leap.

Scaling our business doesn’t mean we have to work more or try harder. Why do only certain types of businesses fit the scalable model? How we can take our current business and make it scalable? Why do the owners of bigger businesses step out of production, and what’s their new role? In this episode, business owner, and Self-Made Magazine Top Entrepreneur, Allison Maslan talks about how to get to the next level. Business owners are change makers. -Allison Maslan 3 Things We Learned From This Episode We can’t scale unless we put together a team (12:00-13:10) Once we reach a higher level and we want to scale, we can’t do everything by ourselves. If we do, we’ll only end up burned out. We have to replicate what we do with a team. To do so, we need the right systems and processes, as well as competent people who are able to implement them. Why people leave our team (16:00- 18:00) The best way to keep turnover rates low and get the best from our team is to share our vision with them. If we can get our team excited about the work they’re doing, they’ll tell others about us and become more loyal and willing to walk the extra mile for us. We need to say no to projects that aren’t aligned with our vision (20:00-23:20) Learn to say no to clients or activities that aren’t priorities. It doesn’t mean that we have to sacrifice things we want to do for our business, but it does mean we can’t do it all right now. Adopting this attitude not only frees up our plate but it also helps us gain the respect of our clients. We can’t scale a business if our income is based solely on how much we get paid per hour for our services. We can transform our business from the 1 to 1 model to 1 to many. Instead of us serving one client at a time, we can hire other people who offer the same services and duplicate our efforts. With this model, we can step out of production and shift our focus to managing our team and working on our business instead of serving the client directly.

If you want to create a million-dollar company, you’ve got to be serious about it! Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Allison became successful because she asked people to teach her what she didn’t know. She also says that you cannot run a million-dollar company all on your own; you must hire other people to help your business grow. If you want your business to be successful, you’ve got to take action. Stop waiting for the right time to follow your dream; make it the right time.
