Connections and friendships are SO important in business. Having people around you to support you, cheer you on and guide you will make your business journey so much more joyful and smoother; connections paired with a high converting sales strategy will give you a recipe for selling success!
Below are the lessons I've learned along my entrepreneurial journey which have equipped me with the knowledge needed to create consistent high revenue months. Here’s my 25-step roadmap for success, that I'm excited to share with you:
"JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO"...
Have you ever thought this as you're there tirelessly building your business and trying to bring the sales in?
I remember when I first launched my first business back in 2018 and thinking, 'omg, someone, JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO'.
I missed having a boss and wasn't yet used to having to figure EVERYTHING out by myself. The pressure of making sales was forever present but so was the confusion. I mean, I had an amazing product, where was the queue of paying customers?!
It didn't take me long to figure it out in all honesty. I'd been in sales forever but something was different running when I set up by myself. The amount of decisions I had to make daily was excruciating and I remember saying to my husband about a million times "I wish somebody would just tell me what to do"... but they didn't.. so, I muddled through.
I set up a fabulous travel business then BAM, the pandemic hit and I lost it. (Global travel bans whilst running a travel business was the UTTER PITS). Fast forward to now... I've Tried & Tested all sorts and distilled my knowledge into 25 areas you need to focus on first to get to from £0 to £3K months.
The premise is SIMPLE…
Follow the steps and you will see the results.
