Caitlin Bacher is the CEO of Scale with Success®, a company dedicated to teaching coaches and course creators how to turn their online course into a 7-figure business without launching. Her company has rapidly grown to over $11m in revenue over the last few years with no signs of slowing down. Caitlin believes there's more than one right way to build a business, and that if launching isn't your cup of tea, you don't have to do it.She's learned this lesson the hard way after years of being trapped on the launch roller coaster - resulting in nothing but inconsistent revenue and sleepless nights wondering where her next sale would be coming from. The day she forgot to pick up her daughter from kindergarten while suffering from launch overwhelm was the last straw. She instantly realized that if this was what it took to build a million-dollar business, she wanted out - and she wanted out fast.

What a year it's been for social media and online business, am I right?! As mompreneurs, we may feel like we're just along for the ride some days. If you are growing your network marketing, mlm, or direct sales business online, you've seen how quickly new platforms and new strategies can emerge. How do you stay on top of all of it? Do you really have to show up on all them? That's what we're discussing in this episode. There's hope and help, mama, and there's a way to make sure you crush it on any social media platform, no matter what changes come next. I'm sharing my biggest piece of advice for always overcoming and staying consistently profitable in your work from home business. Let's dig in!
Hey, mama. I'm just gonna shoot straight here-- saying the overrused phrases we discuss in this podcast episode is killing your engagement and sabotaging your online business results. You've heard them, you've said them. Things like "join my team," or "amazing comp plan," or "would you be interested in taking a look?" These phrases don't convert, and I'm gonna tell you why in today's episode. I also created a freebie with lots of things you've been taught to say in your network marketing business that don't bring results and what to say instead that WILL work. That freebie is the inspiration for today's topic (and you can also download the full version if you'd like by clicking here.) If you're a work from home mom in the direct sales, mlm, or networking marketing business model, you gotta listen to this one.
This is our 50TH EPISODE, you guys! Even though it feels like we just started this journey together, here we are at episode number 50... so let's celebrate, shall we? Today, we talk about the golden rules of an engaged Facebook group. There is no one size fits all approach to online marketing, but there are a few golden rules you must know in order to nurture your community and grow a thriving audience within your Facebook group. When you do these things, you can create a monetized group, mama!! And you know that's what this podcast is ALL about-- creating a work from home business you absolutely love and enjoying your work and business because your marketing is simple, effective, and highly profitable.
If you want to grow an online business that is profitable, fun, and brings you new leads and team members on autopilot, your first (or next) 500 members are SUPER important! There's a reason this metric is vital to the success of your group, and I'm sharing it with you in today's episode. If you're thinking, "how do I find and attract 500 of the RIGHT people to my group?!" I got you, mama. We're breaking it down step by step. And it doesn't have to take forever... In fact, once you learn the basics, this can be one of the simplest parts of growing your network marketing business. A couple of resources mentioned in this episodes: How I Attracted 1000+ Leads Using Facebook Groups 7 Reasons Why a Facebook Group Will Grow Your Business Faster 18 Ways to Find and Attract People to Your FB Group
Hi, friend! Ever wonder if all the top earners in network marketing have something in common? Like, maybe, they have a secret to their success? Well, it may not be a secret, but one thing most successful online entrepreneurs do have in common is this-- they have invested in themselves and their business by hiring a mentor. Even if you have a strong, supportive upline, a coach may still be a smart move. From learning new strategies, to developing a strong mindset, to mastering a certain skillset… hiring a coach or mentor can greatly improve your results. But you may be wondering if now is the time to take that step. I totally get that because I waited a little bit before hiring my first coach. And when it was time, I knew it. In this episode, I'll discuss what questions I had and what helped me make my decision. I hope they help you decide if you're ready to hire a mentor of your own.

Do you feel pushy in your network marketing business, especially when trying to explain why people should buy now... act now... or join your team now? I hear this A LOT. And I'm glad, because it means that you want to make sure you're coming to your audience with the right approach. If you have experienced anxiety or discomfort when pitching your products or business opportunity, I hope today's chat will shed some light on the right way to have these conversations. Because YES, there is a right way (ahem, an authentic way) to create urgency and encourage your potential customers and team members to take action now instead of later. Let's dig in!
Is your Facebook group dead as a doornail? Don't fret, we're gonna get it fired up again in no time! I know about reviving a stale community because not only have I helped mompreneurs with theirs, I've also used the same strategies to breathe new life into my online community. In less than a month, we went from 30% engagement to 70% engagement and attracted over 200 new members with zero paid ads and very little promotion. I'm sharing how I did it in this episode. Facebook groups are an amazing way to attract leads, increase sales, and grow your team. They are great for WAHMs who want to create a sustainable online business. If you're in an MLM, network marketing, social selling, or direct sales business model, this will work for you, too!

For work-at-home mompreneurs, summer break has a very specific meaning. Deanna and Kelly address the challenges of mompreneurs during their kids' summer break, and offer solutions and tips in the areas of scheduling, transitioning, childcare, and taking breaks.Speaking from past experiences & current circumstances as well as concerns submitted by podcast listeners, the conversation covers how to:Create a realistic summer schedule and routine. This might include getting up before our kids and certainly, shifting parts of our work schedules. Use the Time & Task Management Toolkit - created by Deanna for the non-routine lifestyle of WAHMs. Merge a summer-bucket-list with a work schedule.Smoothly transition between work life and home life by identifying which of your tasks require “buffer time.”Handle child care - because affordable, part-time child care in particular is like a rare unicorn! Be prepared to see this as an investment, or to barter.Approach our own desires for time off and summer fun using forecasting, environmental changes, and our beloved pomodoro method.What we discuss - don't miss it! The unique challenges of being a mother and trying to run your business when your kids are sharing your work spaceWe are not all “summer bucket-list moms." The chasm between what we think we should be doing with our kids and what we are gifted and capable to do can create mom guilt. Let's minimize it!Every year, our kids get older and we have an opportunity to improve how we “do” summer. Knowing our own personalities as well as our kids' personalities and expectations helps us create an environment and opportunities to thrive.Give yourself grace over needing childcare!Most mompreneurs can't take the whole summer off, but by forecasting and recycling content, we can give ourselves such extra break time.QUOTES“Without any sort of boundaries, childcare, or schedule to follow, I fell apart.”“I (now) respect the need I have physically, mentally, emotionally to slow the heck down during the summer.”“I don't want to build my business during the summer into something I can't sustain once school starts.”“My kids are growing up in a different world that I did. I have to put some effort into making sure they are getting some engagement during the summer.”“We cannot let the kids maintain the schedule.”“When you don't switch your work and home modes, they end up bleeding into each other and you don't operate well in either space.”RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONEDTime & Task Management Toolkit for MomsThe Pomodoro Technique for WorkInsight Timer - Meditation AppBLOG: How to Get Work Done When You Don't Want to WorkBrandyn Campbell interview - (Repurpose your content)CONNECT WITH DEANNA MASON, REFRESHED MOMSWork With Deanna: Schedule a free appointmentWebsiteInstagramFacebookCONNECT WITH KELLY BURTON, KELL OF A STORYWebsiteInstagramFacebook

To kick things off, we discussed five common mistakes new work at home mothers make. We don’t leave you hanging though, we provide tips on how to avoid them, too. So, how do we know these are common mistakes? Well, because we’ve made them and learned from them, oftentimes, the hard way. Many of the insights, tips and information we will be sharing in our podcast are drawn from our own experiences – over ten years working from home and a total of 7 children combined – trust us when we say we’ve been there and done that. In this episode we offer our insights on the following topics: Launching your new business: create it and they will come? Right? Right? Umm… not exactly. Taking the time to actually care about your clients and LIKE the work you are doing.
