Expert Interviews

Let’s get real.

Sometimes it’s hard to know if you’re making progress on your business.

You show up week after week – publish the podcast, write the newsletter, host the webinar.

And even when you see more people paying attention, more likes, more people opt-in…it can feel a bit unclear.

Are you going in the right direction?

Are you saying and doing the right things?

Over the years I’ve seen many people beat themselves up for not being where they should be or being behind, I knew it was time to stop and share the story of a woman I’ve watched grow over the past several years.

When we dissected her journey, the things she’s accomplished, we could see plain as day how progress was happening all along – even in the “not big enough” moments that could have escaped her — if she hadn’t been paying attention.

It doesn't surprise me…

No matter what your business is, you likely want to reach more people and bring in more revenue… maybe you want more clients, or a better launch, or a more streamlined business. We all want some form of this.

But here's the thing…

You know all those things we learn and promptly ignore about business, when we’re getting started?

Like being specific, talking to one person, giving yourself time, understanding who your audience is and creating what they want?

They work and today’s guest has learned all of this and so much more of the past few years AND she's willing to share the journey with us today!

Meghan of CraftingCreative.com is someone I’ve had the honor to work with over the past year inside one of my programs The Message Lab. 

I begged her to come on the podcast for a few reasons…The most important being that she’s got some solid advice on how to make your website speak loud and clear for you…Plus, she’s willing to share her own story and exactly what she’s done to make her own website do its job much better – and help her reach more of the right people and get more clients without doing tons of clarity sessions or consulting calls.

So, if you’re focusing on getting more people to your site, sign up for your mailing list or buy more products or work with you – you’ll definitely want to tune in today!

Are you an artist or creative entrepreneur?

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, overworked, no time to create art, or do that thing your passionate about – it could be as simple as creating a few key systems in your business.

Now on the surface, the word systems might make your eyes glaze over. Systems definitely don’t immediately bring to mind creativity or flow…

But this week, my guest shares how she’s gained more time in her studio, painting, creating jewelry, coming up with new ideas… and it’s all because she found ways to create systems in her business.

Not a ton…just a few key ones that get the busy work of business off her plate quickly.

So, if whether you’d like more time in the studio creating art — or maybe even just more time to yourself doing another activity, today’s episode is for you…

Do you sell online products and courses?

If so, how many do you have for sale?

And how well are each of the products selling?

If you have multiple online products, courses, or services you offer and are starting to feel scattered, today’s episode is for you.

Because what our guest this week did has simplified her offerings, given her a clear ongoing marketing focus, and has allowed her to really connect and help her customers.

Now her business fits her life and has given her room to daydream about other projects if she wants to add them in.

Sound good? Do you want the same?

What does it really take to have a successful product launch?

The number of searches on google for this are ridiculous! To answer this question, I'm kicking off a brand new feature for the podcast.

I've heard your requests…and now every chance we get, we'll feature the real successful launch stories of entrepreneurs at different stages of their business. Every few weeks I'll share the case study of a business owner doing a different “type” of launch and doing it well!

You'll learn “how they did it” – and walk away with a strategy or two to implement yourself.

Our first featured guest is Josh Stanton, co-founder of Screw The Nine To Five—him and his wife, Jill’s slice of the internet where they help entrepreneurs build more attention to their brands, make more money in their business and get more out of their life through simple strategies, how to’s and behind-the-scenes glimpses into the realities of building a business online.

You will love the power of their “simple” and straightforward launch strategy… [Read more…] about Secrets of a Successful Product Launch with Josh Stanton
