Last week, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the wildly real, wise, and hilarious Rebecca Tracey—founder of The Uncaged Life, business coach, and new mom. This wasn't your average online business convo. It was a refreshingly honest look at what it actually takes to build a soulful, sustainable business without selling your soul to the algorithm. About Rebecca: Rebecca Tracey is the founder of TheUncagedLife.com where she works with coaches and online business owners to get clear on their brand message, create packages that sell, and help them get clients.

Determining the right price for your coaching services can be challenging, or even downright anxiety-inducing — even for the most seasoned coaches. So in this show, you'll hear from Christine Gallagher, a marketing and business coach with a knack for helping female entrepreneurs scale their businesses, and Becca Tracey, founder of The Uncaged Life, who specializes in crafting a life and business outside the conventional 9–5, as they both dive into the delicate balance of valuing your expertise while ensuring your clients recognize the worth of their investment. You'll get actionable strategies and insights to guide you through the process of pricing your coaching services, ensuring both you and your clients feel valued and satisfied.In this episode, we talk about...Valuing Your Expertise: Christine Gallagher discusses the importance of pricing your coaching in a way that reflects a healthy profit while ensuring clients receive outstanding value. It's about striking a balance where both parties feel the arrangement is more than worthwhile.Understanding Client Value: Gallagher urges coaches to consider the tangible results clients achieve through their coaching sessions. The focus should be on the comprehensive benefits clients receive, extending beyond surface results to the impact on all areas of their lives.The Cost of Not Coaching: Delving into what clients might miss by not choosing your services provides a compelling argument for the value of coaching. Gallagher emphasizes the importance of making clients contemplate where they could be in a year without your guidance, thereby highlighting your service's intrinsic value.Price Elasticity and Personal Worth: The conversation covers the concept of price elasticity in coaching, encouraging coaches to define their minimum acceptable rates. Gallagher shares practical advice on assessing your time's worth and considering the broader implications of your pricing strategy.Articulating Your Value: Becca Tracey, founder of The Uncaged Life, adds her perspective on setting coaching rates that transcend time-for-money equations. She introduces a method that focuses on the overall package and results offered, rather than just the hours spent.Aligning Pricing with Vision: Gallagher advises coaches to ensure their pricing aligns with their brand and long-term goals. This alignment helps in establishing a pricing structure that genuinely reflects the coach's value and aspirations.The “Gut Feeling” Pricing Method: Becca Tracey introduces an intuitive approach to pricing, encouraging coaches to trust their instincts and find a rate that feels both fair and exciting. This method prioritizes the coach's confidence and ability to deliver exceptional value.Building Confidence in Pricing: Gallagher touches on the continuous journey of self-belief and the importance of having a support network. She underscores the need for personal development and self-assessment to sustain and grow in the coaching industry.If you're a coach wrestling with how to price your services, you're not alone! And this episode will help you quantify the value of your work so you can communicate this effectively to prospective clients. Whether you're fine-tuning your pricing strategy or looking to enhance the perceived value of your services, Christine Gallagher and Becca Tracey provide actionable insights and thoughtful advice to empower you in your coaching practice.

If you've been following us for a while, you probably know that we're obsessed with the concept of being a business nomad. What's not to love about getting to travel the world while still running your business? And before Jeni took the plunge and invested in her own Airstream, she had a few entrepreneurs she would follow for travel inspo - people who were living the #campingcarlife and working while going on new adventures every day. One such entrepreneur was Rebecca Tracey. The founder of The Uncaged Life, Rebecca works with coaches and solopreneurs in the baby stages of their business to help them get clear on their brand messaging, create packages that sell, and attract lifetime clients. Though she's been in the business for a long time (in fact, 2021 is her 10th anniversary!), her model has had to go through some huge changes recently. Before 2021, over 50% of Rebecca's total revenue came from two live launches a year, which ran for weeks at a time. Once they wrapped up, she would take a step back and use the downtime to travel and unwind. While this might seem like a stressful model for some, Rebecca loved it. She loved the adrenaline-pumping excitement of a live launch, and loved the free time she got afterwards. However, due to several big life changes that happened to her this year (including moving from Toronto to Squamish, BC), Rebecca decided that her live-launch model didn't make sense for her moving forward. So, she decided to focus on her evergreen programs and offering her clients year-round support. Switching to such a drastically different model nearly 10 years into your business isn't easy.And Rebecca never makes it sound like it is. In this episode, she candidly talks about WHY she switched models in the first place, how she doesn't have everything figured out just yet, and why feeling scared in your business is 100% okay. Here's what else you can expect in the episode: Why Rebecca is retiring from her nomad lifeHow she's updating her programs for her new modelHer organic marketing tips that ANY business owner can implement Her experiments with Facebook AdsWhat Rebecca's 2022 is going to look likeIf you've had to change your business model in the pandemic and feel like you're not quite sure where the future will take you, this episode might help quell some of those fears!RESOURCES: The Uncaged Life  The Uncaged Life - Instagram Rebecca's Instagram The Chill and Prosper Podcast - Denise Duffield Thomas This Week's Joy:In memory of her late cattle dog Rhubarb, Rebecca has been obsessed with the Cattle Dog hashtag on Instagram!This Week's Hustle:Rebecca's hustle is someone you might remember from And She Spoke - Denise Duffield Thomas! Denise is the epitome of a ‘chill-preneur' and Rebecca listens to her podcast when her business gets complicated.This podcast is brought to you by the Marvelous online teaching platform.Marvelous is an easy-to-use platform that helps you build and sell your own courses memberships and live-streamed programs.

If 2020 has taught us anything, it's that all of us at some point will need a break – from business, our career, even our family and the routine of our life. This is the ultimate in self-care and leverage. My guest today is Rebecca Tracey, CEO and founder of The Uncaged Life, and creator of the highly-acclaimed Uncage Your Business program. And we're talking deep and meaningful about creating compelling offers and leverage delivery models that uncage your life so you can live on your own terms. Becca and I share a passion for helping people create a business that gives you freedom as well as achieving wealth and impacting others in a positive way. When you design your business for work-life balance - working when you want, playing when you want and resting when you need it - you gain time and energy for other things that matter to you. And you get to take off when life's plot twists hit us. We'll also be covering a really critical lever in starting a new business or reinventing an existing offer and how to ensure it's enjoyable and profitable. When you learn how to lay solid foundations everything you build on top is stronger. We blast all that “stuff” you can get bogged down on totally out of the water. Because when you leverage your target market's language, it's so much easier to get your messaging and offers nailed. Links in the show notes for the episode at jayallyson.com/podcast/.

Before you build that website, before you spend money on ads, if you’re just starting out, or if you’ve been at it for years with little to no traction, you need to hear this one. Today we have with us the mystery, the legend, Rebecca Tracey of the Uncaged Life. I’m really excited about this episode because Becca is one of the gems that’s really worth her salt and fills a huge need in the online business industry – and that’s getting people clear on their business missions, their message, and how they help their clients. This seems basic – and it is – but so many people don’t have this foundation in their business even if they’ve been plodding along for a while. People like me just two years ago. I was one of those people who went to Becca for help after all of the fancy other things I bought didn’t work. Because without clarity, you can’t effectively use all of those fancy things. Trust me on this – I promise. Through her no-nonsense approach to helping clients in her wildly successful program, Uncage Your Business, Becca has helped thousands of coaches, creatives and other online business owners get clear on who they serve, how to talk about their business, and getting their first clients. And you know what? I still go back to her content as a first stop when I’m feeling stuck. But shameless gushing aside, if you know Becca, then you know that you’re in for a treat.Today we talk: How she started her business – living in a van!Why your business can’t be ‘the thing’ to rescue you from a job you hate Why you need to niche in right now if you want to grow your businessThe one thing that consistently surprises her about her flagship program year after yearWhat you need to STOP doing if you want any tractionWhat beta testing will do for your offers (aka you should totes do it)Her one mega goal she wants to reach as she approaches ten years (!!) of her businessThere are one or two instances of some salty language here in case you have the tiny humans running around, but otherwise, sit back and enjoy this very special interview. I guarantee this episode will get you re-thinking a lot about what you’ve heard about online business, and how you’ve approached your own biz. Here it is.

Welcome to another episode of The Soulful MBA podcast! Today’s guest is Becca Tracey. Becca is Founder of The Uncaged Life, where she teaches solopreneurs – typically life-coaches, designers, and consultants – how to get new clients and launch their businesses.    We invited Becca on the show to share with you how she has crafted a life based on freedom and adventure. Becca lives a life that is the definition of “uncaged”—a type of life we’ve all spoken about having but often don’t know what steps to take to make it a reality.   Becca launches just one-product twice a year— that’s it! This business model enables her to spend most of the year traveling in her van, rock-climbing throughout North America with her partner and dog, and take weeks off at a time to go backpacking—while still maintaining high-revenue and consistent offerings.   In this episode, you’ll discover exactly how Becca set up her business, what she sells, and how often she launches. Becca shows us that less really can be so much more and how the uncaged life is possible for you too!   Key Points from This Episode:     Becca’s backstory as a life coach and how she transitioned to where she is today.   Giving others the permission to let go of the things they think they have to do.   Discover how Becca runs her business on one offering that launches just twice a year.   Why doing one thing and doing it well is the key to a successful online business.   Becca explains the evolvement of her product from the start to where it is today.   Why it takes two years before you have something that will make your business lift-off.   Owning what you don’t know: Why humility is an important characteristic for entrepreneurs.   Money mindsets and talking to friends about your online business, goals, and earnings.   Becca shares what her business and her lifestyle look like on a yearly basis.   Going evergreen and making the decision to hire team members for support.   Words of Wisdom:   “I learned from watching successful business owners. Most of them who are killing it, just sell one thing.” — @rebecca_tracey    “It takes a while to get confident with owning what your expertise is and letting the rest go.” — @rebecca_tracey   “Don’t not do something because of a future problem that hasn’t happened yet.” — @rebecca_tracey   “Building an online business is not rocket science. Our mindset is usually what gets in our way.” — @rebecca_tracey    “I didn’t build a business so I could just work Monday to Friday with two weeks of vacation!” — @rebecca_tracey   Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode:   The Uncaged Life Becca Tracey on Instagram Becca Tracey on Facebook Becca Tracey on Twitter Beta Launch Lab Namastream     Joy: Becca’s boyfriend + dog Hustle: The Voxer App

Today on the podcast I'm talking to Becca Tracey of The Uncaged Life! Becca is a SUPER STAR. She's been launching and re-launching her signature program, Uncage Your Business, for over four years. Before Becca came to the Accelerator, she launched two times a year. She was making multi-six-figures, but if a launch ever tanked, she'd be screwed! That's what brought Becca to the Accelerator. Together, we built a six-figure evergreen funnel that has added over $100,000 to her business. Now Becca was SUPER hesitant to go evergreen. I'm pretty sure she looked at me like I was crazy when I first suggested it. She was convinced that no one would buy on evergreen and that the people who did wouldn't be able to get the same results as those that did the live program. Spoiler: she was wrong ;) This podcast is an amazing listen for anyone who's ever thought, “I can't POSSIBLY turn my course evergreen.” In it, we break down exactly how Becca built her six-figure funnel: both the technical aspects of how she put it together and, more importantly, the mindset work Becca needed to do to get into the headspace for her funnel to work.

Becca's life has been the definition of ‘uncaged’, and her work history has too. Becca lived in a van for a year rock climbing and travelling around the U.S. She started her business in her van with her dog Rhubarb, something they often do when she wasn't working. Becca today runs a successful online coach business helping people to be uncaged from their 9-5 jobs and also helping existing business owners scale through challenges in business. She runs a thriving facebook page. Connect with Becca on her Facebook page and website . Find out how Becca emerged to her greatness from the van to thriving in an online coaching business today. https://theuncagedlife.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TheUncagedLife/ --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Becca has done a lot of things right on her path to creating a dream lifestyle business! She shares with us how she started creating group programs and launched her main one 5 times in the first year which was crazy and eventually she landed on twice per year. At around that time she realized she had to stop doing her one-on-one work and can her smaller group programs, putting all her eggs in one basket for her current program, The Uncaged Life. She admits that the launch cycle is exhausting and stressful but she loves the time off. While many of her colleagues are choosing to get out of the stress of launches and they have a fixed schedule she’s staying firm on the twice annual cycle. We talked about how she prices her programs. She has a main one in which she gives a ton of support and a self-study version that she’s recently put on evergreen mode. What I love about Becca is her direct approach. She breaks things down so well and clearly. Her top advice is to get in front of others’ audiences if you’re trying to build yours. She’s a master of re-purposing her content. “If you’ve been doing this for 2 years and it’s not working, it’s probably not just going to start to work. Go hire someone to look at what you’re doing and tell you what’s not working. ”  

Shownotes and links for this episode can be found at http://sarahsantacroce.com/episode75 A big part of the allure of becoming an online entrepreneur is the freedom it affords us to work on our own terms and live the life we choose. Yet many of us introverts don’t take advantage of that freedom, instead becoming our own ‘horrible bosses.’ We create programs that leave us with little time to travel or spend time with our families, recreating the stress of the 9-to-5 we were trying to escape. So, how do you design programs around what you want your life to look like? What if you could take a lot of time off—and still run a very successful business? Rebecca Tracey is the solopreneur behind The Uncaged Life, a venture that helps service-based business owners get clear on their brand message and design packages that sell. Rebecca is dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs as they learn what it takes to onboard and retain clients in the online world.

She discusses her strength in executing on decisions without overthinking, sharing her ‘good enough is good enough’ philosophy around getting things done. Rebecca also offers insight on her fear of missing out as an introvert who avoids conference-style events and describes the AHA moment early in her business when she learned to follow her intuition. Listen in to understand why making sure a client is a good fit is key to marketing with integrity and learn how taking a lot of time off to travel contributes to Rebecca’s success!

Take the Free "Jumpstart Your Website Traffic" marketing mini-course at www.jumpstartyourwebsitetraffic.com Leave a Review! I’M SO GRATEFUL FOR THE PEOPLE THAT MARKET POSSIBILITY ONLINE. I knew I wanted more out of my life, but I really didn’t know how to go about getting it, but I’m so grateful for Google. Seriously. Shout out to Google for putting the world of possibility at my fingertips. Yep, Google and the internet are my very first shoutouts today because I wouldn’t know what I know about anything that I do without them. It’s something I know I take for granted, but it’s so, so important! I’M DEEPLY GRATEFUL FOR GREAT FRIENDS WHO SINCERELY WANT TO HELP YOU BE THE BEST PERSON YOU WANT TO BE. Friends who see that you’re struggling and striving to change who give you a book, ask you if you want to read it together and go through the program together and that book ends up changing the trajectory of your life and gives you the clarity you need to come up with a plan and execute – and then support you and cheer you on all along the way. I’M GRATEFUL FOR PEOPLE THAT GIVE AWAY ALL THEIR ANSWERS, AND WHO GET EXCITED WHEN PEOPLE ACTUALLY TAKE ACTION ON THE INFORMATION THAT THEY ARE SHARING TO CHANGE THEIR LIVES. People like Chalene Johnson, whose book PUSH was given to me by that friend I mentioned above, and how I discovered by doing the exercises in the book that I had a deep desire to own my own business and be my own boss and by doing that, everything else I wanted in life would be made easier. CHALENE JOHNSON’S PODCASTS, BUILD YOUR TRIBE AND THE CHALENE SHOW – GAVE ME THE BLUEPRINT FOR IMAGINING WHAT LIFE COULD BE LIKE. And her Marketing Impact Academy launch videos showed me the first steps, and her Marketing Impact Academy Live Event forced me out of my shell and made me talk to people in person in real life. And now the 131 Diet, which is coming out right when I’m able to quit my day job because I have my own business – a plan I put in motion 4 years ago after reading PUSH because I wanted more time to focus on my health and fitness. I don’t think it’s any coincidence that Chalene’s new “diet” is coming out right when I’ll have plenty of white space to implement it and take action on it. PEOPLE LIKE PAT FLYNN, WHO RECORD PODCASTS THAT GIVE AWAY ALL THE INFORMATION REQUIRED TO CREATE INCOME ONLINE. Pat interviews guests and asks all the questions I want to know the answers to – like, “Exactly how did you do that, step by step?” and “How much money did you make?” and “How big is your email list?” And who shares how much money he makes, how he makes it and then tells me exactly how I can do it too. Pat does a few things that I love. He shows you not only through himself but through all of his guests that it’s possible to make money online doing something that you love, and he gives you a frame of reference of how much time, work and money it will take to do it. It’s not just fluff, it’s the nuts and bolts of exactly what you need to know, and in a format that you can listen to while you’re doing other things. PEOPLE LIKE NATHALIE LUSSIER, WHO GIVES AWAY THE SECRET TO BUILDING YOUR BUSINESS IN A TOTALLY FREE ONLINE COURSE CALLED THE 30 DAY LIST BUILDING CHALLENGE. I know I’ve said this a million times and I’ll say it again. This course is responsible for me being able to quit my day job. And it cost me $27 because I wanted the fast track. Do you know how much that is worth? So not only is Nathalie going to teach me, for practically free, how to get customers, she’s going to offer me some of the best software out there to do it, which YES, I will buy that because now I believe that anything you put out is gold (and it has been), and you know what else that taught me to do? Give it all away. Nathalie was the inspiration for giving away all the knowledge for free. Nathalie, Pat, and Chalene created a perfect storm of information, inspiration and how-to, and after learning all I could from them, I could not be stopped. Building my business and working toward my dream took priority over all the BS things I’d been doing, like watching crap reality TV, sleeping in because I had too many beers the night before, sitting around complaining about how much I hated my job. AND THEN ALONG COMES REBECCA TRACEY. I have no idea how I found her, I’m sure it was from a Facebook group because I found the Uncaged Life and I was like, holy sh%t, this is the kind of business I want to run. Like, I had all the what and how and why and proof from Nathalie, Pat, and Chalene, but Becca Tracey showed me how to SAY it, and how to BE it, and how to OWN it, and how to be myself, and how to package that up into a product and sell it. I’m not an edgy person, you guys. I’m a plain vanilla basic midwest girl who wishes she was edgier, so at first I wanted to be like Becca, but through her Hey Nice Package course and HNP live workshops and just her blog and webinars, I just figured out how to be me, and that’s a huge relief, because if I had to pretend I was super cool and trendy all the time I would not be able to fake it. I already feel like I’m not in the right job, that would make it worse! AND IF I THOUGHT I KNEW IT ALL FROM TAKING IN AND TAKING ACTION ON EVERY LAST PIECE OF INFORMATION I COULD FROM THOSE GUYS, I’M INTRODUCED TO THE BEING BOSS PODCAST. OMG. This is the not-so-distant future, you guys. Talk about some real people who have taken massive, focused action toward success. Emily Thompson and Kathleen Shannon’s podcast is like hanging out every day with people who GET you – your dreams, your goals, your fears, but also who celebrate your successes. Because let’s face it… When I tell my best friend or my husband about how I finally landed on a name for my course, they smile and are happy for me but they just don’t GET it. It’s a huge dose of validation and it makes me feel like I’m on the right track. And they dig in, you guys, just like Pat Flynn does. It’s not fluff, it’s action. AND FOR CHRIS GUILLEBEAU AND HIS SIDE HUSTLE SCHOOL PODCAST AND SIDE HUSTLE BOOK. This one… this one is just mind-blowing. I heard Chris on Lewis Howe’s School of Greatness podcast, and his message about struggling with depression even with all of his business success really resonated with me, like, this guy is a real, vulnerable person, not just some “bro” entrepreneur out to make bank. I replied to a call for side hustle stories, and I didn’t even know it was for Chris or his podcast – and he featured my story!! A New York TimesBestselling Author told my story on his podcast. And then… I find out my story is part of his book. Are you kidding me right now? Like my name is printed in a book, and my side-hustle story is in a book. That other people read. And then they find me online and I help them build websites to support their side-hustles. It’s really hard to wrap my mind around that… So I’m grateful to Chris not only for the opportunity, the amazing people he’s connecting me with but also for helping me expand my mind around what’s POSSIBLE. ON THAT NOTE, I’M SO GRATEFUL FOR PODCASTS. You guys, if you’ve ever thought you don’t have TIME to learn what it takes to follow your dreams, then I’d like to introduce you to this thing called PODCASTS. It’s the only way to learn where you can be doing other things, like driving, working out, working your day job, making dinner, cleaning your house… Seriously, if you are not taking advantage of learning from some of the smartest people out there who are actually successful online, make it your mission in 2018 to start listening to podcasts. I’M ALSO GRATEFUL FOR HAVING A JOB THAT I HATED BECAUSE I FINALLY LEARNED THAT I’M IN CONTROL OF HOW I FEEL. That my job never did anything to me to make me hate it, it was my bad attitude and negativity that made it unbearable. If I hadn’t figured that out, there’s no way I’d be able to create a successful business of my own, I’d carry the same bad attitude with me. And once I changed my attitude, everything changed. In fact, I’m having a hard time leaving this place now that it’s time because all of my coworkers are amazing people who have gone out of their way to make it know how much they want me to stay. Wow. I’M GRATEFUL FOR HAVING A BOSS WHO IS A TRUE MENTOR.   One who believes in me, who wants to see me succeed, who supported my side hustle from the moment I told her about it, and who knows that an employee who is fulfilled outside of work is a better employee at work. Thanks, Lori! There should be more CEOs in the world like Lori Chovanak, and if anyone can make that happen, she can. AND I’M GRATEFUL FOR THE COACHING INDUSTRY, A THING I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW EXISTED UNTIL A FEW YEARS AGO. And sorry not sorry Vicki Fitch, but I’m so glad you were about to throw your laptop out the window trying to build your website and that you found me in Freedom Hackers (thanks Kimra!!), started my 5 Day Challenge, connected with me, I figured out she was a business coach and signed up for a free 20 minute consultation. IN 20 MINUTES, VICKI FITCH REFRAMED MY MINDSET IN SUCH A WAY THAT SOMETHING THAT HAD BEEN HOLDING ME BACK HAD BEEN COMPLETELY BULLDOZED. The flood of possibility came rushing through. And I’m so glad I got up off my wallet and invested in coaching with her because I’ve made every cent back and then some, and I know I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her. I’M GRATEFUL FOR MY HUSBAND FLOYD, WHO IS MY BEST FRIEND. CLICHE’ I KNOW, BUT TRUE. He works around my busy schedule and never complains about how much I work, who is proud of me, who allows his beliefs about what is possible in our life to change as I do crazy things like quit my job and figure out exactly how much our dream home will cost and make him tell me what kind of lawnmower he would need if we had 10 acres and a log cabin, who does simple, nice thoughtful things for me and believes that I will be successful. I’M GRATEFUL THAT I HAVE A SUPER SUPPORTIVE, LOVING FAMILY WHO IS PROUD OF ME. They encourage me when I share that I’m afraid to quit my job to follow my dreams, who tell me that I HAVE to do it, that I will be fine and give me perspective by reminding me that I’m not the first person to do it and that both my mom and Grandpa have owned their own businesses, who read every single blog post (hi Mommy!!) and by telling me that I can come live with them if I need to or that they have a job I’d be perfect for if it all goes to shit. They make it so that I can’t “fail”, and I love the crap out of them for it. I’M GRATEFUL THAT I BELIEVE IN MYSELF ENOUGH TO TAKE ACTION. To try. To embarrass myself. To fail. To get up and try again. To spend money. To waste money (it’s never a waste, it’s always a lesson). To learn how to give up control. To learn how to ask for help. To admit that I don’t know everything, that I’m not always right, and that I don’t have all the answers all the time. To accept constructive feedback. To have great successes and accomplishments and be proud of them, and not minimize them and play it small. To accept people’s compliments without feeling weird #workingonit. I’M NOT DOING ANY OF THIS ALONE. THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO HAVE HELPED ME MAKE MY DREAMS POSSIBLE. Sara & Christina at One Woman Shop. Amy Porterfield, whose podcast I just discovered (yes, I’ve been living under a rock apparently) and is just what I need at this stage in my business. Lewis Howes who shows how to be authentic and real and vulnerable. AND THEN THERE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT HELP ME ACTUALLY DO THE WORK (AS BEING BOSS SAYS). The She Can Coterie team – those people are amazingly smart, awesome, and insightful, and I can’t wait to continue our work in 2018. Maren, Kim, Marium and Rachel who I rely on for all the things they do better than I do when it comes to building WordPress sites and without whom I’d never have been able to work full time and keep it all afloat. AND FINALLY, I WANT TO THANK YOU GUYS, MY BFFS, ALL THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE TAKEN THE FREE 5 DAY WEBSITE CHALLENGE BECAUSE THEY WANT THE SAME THING I DO. All the people that have shared it, told their friends and networking groups about it. Thank you to all the people who have bought my courses and learned from me to get closer to your dreams. I cannot wait to help you get even closer in 2018 and beyond! SO TELL ME IN THE COMMENTS BELOW – WHAT ARE YOU THANKFUL FOR THIS SEASON? Who are all the people that have helped you on your journey? What do you need to start being thankful for that you’re not so thankful for right now in order to move forward (like that pesky day job)?

January 2018 Month in Review January 2, 2018 was my very first day of self-employment and I had spent three months planning a huge live, online party to celebrate. #SideHustleGoneSerious was a 2-hour live broadcast on Facebook Live which including dream guests like Nathalie Lussier and Rebecca Tracey of the Uncaged Life (um, pinch me, did that really happen?) Bree Pair of Thrive Creative Events and my business coach, Vicki Fitch, who pushed me to hold the event, helped me plan it and emcee’d the whole thing. My affiliate partners Bluehost and Theme Foundry contributed free hosting and free Make Plus upgrades and we did fun giveaways all night! The livestream generated 5,700 views 97 shares and hundreds of likes (are you kidding me right now?), and it was an amazing way to kick off the new year and my new business!! Then, on January 2, when all my former coworkers were heading back into the office, I treated myself to a massage. And two days later, I did something that I never would have been able to do the first week of January had I still been an employee  – I jumped on an airplane and took a 5-day trip to visit my best friend in Colorado. I spent the month taking full advantage of my newfound freedom. Working from bed. Meeting my husband for lunch on a random Monday (we had never gone to lunch together in our 15 years together, you guys, even when we worked together). Staying in pajamas all day… you know, basically pretending to be a teenager again. Important Things That Happened in January I opened enrollment for my Web Designer Academy again in January as a live launch with a closed cart. Live launches take a lot of resources and time, and after my experience in January, I’ve decided to test out making it an evergreen program starting in April of 2018. I also launched my Serious Side Hustlers Membership Program in January, which took all of the content I had previously had inside of the BFF Academy for $199 and made it more accessible to beginners at just $29/month. I tested launching the program with a 7-day free trial for live viewers on my WordPress Tips, Tricks and Hacks webinar and promoted it again on my Make Plus webinar – and the replays of those webinars were added as modules inside of Serious Side Hustlers. I did have a few cancellations within the 7 days, but the majority of people who took advantage of the free trial remained members (hi guys!! you rock!!). I started sending out short tutorials weekly on Saturday mornings to keep people engaged and moving forward without feeling overwhelmed, something I really felt was lacking in the BFF Academy. I also had several Done For You projects that I was determined to wrap up in January. Review of My Goals My number one goal in January was to have $10,000 in revenue because my rough breakdown to replace my paycheck, cover business expenses and pay taxes is: $5000 – Income to cover my old monthly paycheck. $2500 – Expenses $2500 – Taxes I also set the goal to add 333 email subscribers, launch my new subscription-model for access to my courses, launch the Web Designer Academy and write two guest posts – one for the Thrive and the other for Nathalie Lussier (didn’t happen). What I Focused on in January As I was trying on my newfound freedom in my first month of self-employment, I also felt the pressure of actually hitting my income goals for the first time since I started my business- because this month, no paycheck was going to magically appear in my bank account on January 15. You can learn more about my weird money issues in this blog post, The Lies I Tell Myself About Money and on this Facebook Live with Michelle Bobrow of the Holistic Wallet. And unlike the past 3 years where I could be a little looser with spending in my business because I was reinvesting much of what I made back into it, now I felt a lot of pressure to pay myself first using the Profit First model (great book – check it out here), which I wasn’t used to doing. Sure, I had put money away to help me weather the ups and downs, but I just feel like I have something to prove, that I can hit these numbers on a monthly basis and our personal bank account won’t see any difference in the amount being deposited into it twice a month (now by me instead of my employer). So, my focus on January was purely on making money. Obsessively. To the point where if I continued on like that, it would be detrimental to the foundation of my business. To the point where my husband is telling me to chill out. Historically, any time I have focused on just the numbers and not the why behind the numbers or the people I’m helping, my rate of growth slows down because I’m not doing what I need to do to reach new people and nurture the relationships I currently have.     Find out exactly how I made $10,016.93 in my online business in January 2018CLICK TO TWEET    So here’s what it looked like in January. Get the full breakdown of income, expenses and net profit month by month here. Income PASSIVE INCOME TOTAL: $3600.55 TIME FOR MONEY TOTAL: $6416.38 Done For You Projects – $3916.38 Consulting – $2500 Total Income: $10,016.93 Total Expenses: $2486.96 Net Profit: $7529.97 Biggest Lesson Learned I’m writing this income report in early April, so I’ve learned a lot of lessons in my first three months in business which I outlined for you here in this blog post, The Truth About My First Three Months of Self Employment. With my Done For You web design projects,  I discovered is that I hadn’t been giving my clients enough time to pull together what they need to on their end. So reflecting on that, I restructured my Done For You Process to build in more time to help my clients create their content and build in more checkpoints and deadlines to keep projects moving forward. Now that I feel like I have a better process for these projects, I’ll be marketing them more. Ultimately, my goal is to have more revenue on the passive income side than the trading my time for money side, but my last few Done For You Projects went so smoothly with this new process that I’m going to continue focus on growing a team to help with those projects. And this change is resulting in a new module in theWeb Designer Academy where I teach web designers how to get clients and effectively manage projects. Reflecting just on what I’ve outlined here in January, looking at these numbers, the biggest takeaway I’m seeing is that I’ve got lots of different opportunities to increase my revenue on the passive income side. I’m moving away from the traditional launch model where I have an open and closed cart to a model where anyone can join any of my programs at any time. It’s a model that feels better to me in many ways – more authentic to me, and also it’s not a huge time-suck like I’ve found the traditional launch process to be. I’ve created affordable payment plans which not only helps my community of beginners get access to the content, it also creates steady, recurring revenue for me. It’s a win-win in my opinion. What I haven’t been doing as well is promoting all of these opportunities because I’ve been so hyper-focused on bringing in that $10,000 that I’m not looking at the long-term growth of my business. Not anymore, BFFs! Not anymore. You’re going to see lots of cool stuff coming in the next few months to fuel the growth of the passive income side of my business – because that’s what’s scalable! So, what questions do you have for me about this income report and how I run my business?

Get the full breakdown of income, expenses and net profit month by month here. Income PASSIVE INCOME TOTAL: $3600.55 TIME FOR MONEY TOTAL: $6416.38 Done For You Projects – $3916.38 Consulting – $2500 Total Income: $10,016.93 Total Expenses: $2486.96 Net Profit: $7529.97 Biggest Lesson Learned I’m writing this income report in early April, so I’ve learned a lot of lessons in my first three months in business which I outlined for you here in this blog post, The Truth About My First Three Months of Self Employment. With my Done For You web design projects,  I discovered is that I hadn’t been giving my clients enough time to pull together what they need to on their end. So reflecting on that, I restructured my Done For You Process to build in more time to help my clients create their content and build in more checkpoints and deadlines to keep projects moving forward. Now that I feel like I have a better process for these projects, I’ll be marketing them more. Ultimately, my goal is to have more revenue on the passive income side than the trading my time for money side, but my last few Done For You Projects went so smoothly with this new process that I’m going to continue focus on growing a team to help with those projects. And this change is resulting in a new module in theWeb Designer Academy where I teach web designers how to get clients and effectively manage projects. Reflecting just on what I’ve outlined here in January, looking at these numbers, the biggest takeaway I’m seeing is that I’ve got lots of different opportunities to increase my revenue on the passive income side. I’m moving away from the traditional launch model where I have an open and closed cart to a model where anyone can join any of my programs at any time. It’s a model that feels better to me in many ways – more authentic to me, and also it’s not a huge time-suck like I’ve found the traditional launch process to be. I’ve created affordable payment plans which not only helps my community of beginners get access to the content, it also creates steady, recurring revenue for me. It’s a win-win in my opinion. What I haven’t been doing as well is promoting all of these opportunities because I’ve been so hyper-focused on bringing in that $10,000 that I’m not looking at the long-term growth of my business. Not anymore, BFFs! Not anymore. You’re going to see lots of cool stuff coming in the next few months to fuel the growth of the passive income side of my business – because that’s what’s scalable! So, what questions do you have for me about this income report and how I run my business?
