  • 10: Step 3: The Fastest Way to Sign Your First Client
    2021/09/15

    It's time to get real with y’all … creating a successful business overnight just doesn't happen. It's unrealistic, sets terrible standards for the online business world, and overall perpetuates the idea that if you don't crush it overnight there's something wrong with you or your business. Signing your first client can take some time simply because there's a major learning curve you are trying to understand PLUS you're a new business that's trying to gain the trust of customers who have never seen you serve in the way you are serving before. So let's drop the belief that you have to become an overnight success and step into the most realistic (and fastest) way to sign your first client.

    In today's episode you'll hear:

    1. Why people's buying process can take time

    2. Where Katie & Ashley spent their time at the beginning of their business

    3. Why focusing on this one area will actually make the sales process feel SO much easier

    4. Why the idea that people you know won't buy from you isn't true

    5. How this strategy looks in each of our businesses


    Today's homework is to choose your favorite platform and reach out to 3 contacts to tell them about your services OR make a blanket post/declaration of your offer/service!

    2021/09/08

    In last week’s episode, we talked about the 3 questions you need to know before you start marketing yourself and your online business and in today's episode we are building off of it because at this point - it's time to start shouting from the rooftops that you're an entrepreneur!

    But wait - "I'm an entrepreneur". That feels hard to say out loud and what if people call you out...enter imposter syndrome. We get it it can be hard to own that you're an entrepreneur publicly so in today's episode we're covering some ways to overcome those fears including:

    1. Why it's normal to have fear about owning the fact you're an entrepreneur especially once you begin your business

    2. Why being visible in your business can feel challenging - especially as a woman in the patriarchy

    3. How showing up energetically as a CEO makes a HUGE difference in your success and the first step to take even if you feel frozen

    4. Why showing up online actually helps build trust with your clients

    5. Why you don't have to be dubbed an "expert" to be able to support your ideal client


    So your homework today is to lean into discomfort and go tell someone you're an entrepreneur - even if it feels weird and even if it starts from a whisper.
