14 Reasons You're Not Booking Clients Consistently

14 Reasons You're Not Booking Clients Consistently

There was a time when I couldn’t afford a McDonald’s meal.

It was 2012, I had recently started a graphic design business so I could work online and travel the world but... clients weren’t exactly knocking down my digital door (aka. inbox), so money was tight. Really tight.

My friend and I were in town when she said she wanted to go to McDonald’s. Not wanting to tell her I couldn't afford it, I followed her in and got in line. I was SURE my card would decline and I didn’t want my friend to see, so I told her I had forgotten my purse and asked if she could pay for my lunch and I'd pay her back.

Fast forward to now and things are wildly different.

  • I built a six figure business working three days a week and traveling the world.

  • I saved £110k+ in my twenties.

  • I have the time and financial freedom to travel for 3-6 months a year. (I’ve lived in New York, Seoul, Central America, London and traveled to over 17 other countries.)

Have We Gone Too Far With the Anti-hustle Movement?

 

I've noticed over the last couple of years that more business owners than ever feel burnt out, overwhelmed, and just want a soft life. And you know what? That's a perfectly normal response to recovering from a world crisis, going through a cost of living crisis, and dealing with everything else that has been thrown at us over the last few years.

I've had my own bouts of overwhelm here and there when balancing building my own tiny home (with zero DIY skills I might add!), running a business, and being in a long-distance relationship.

It's normal to not feel like you have the energy to market yourself or your business. To not even feel motivated to work at all.

But earning a living is self-care. It's a way we care for ourselves, our families, and our wellbeing.

There are times when, yes, you do need to rest. Perhaps even for weeks or months. (Especially if you are suffering with illness or you are burnt out.)

But there are also times when you need some self-discipline. When you need to get in touch with the "girlboss" inside you and use her to help you work - even if you're only doing a few hours of work and not a full day.

Today, let's talk about this more. (It might be a bit of a controversial episode but I think you'll find it helpful!)

Let's discuss:

  • How to discern when you need rest vs when you need self-discipline.

  • How to get work done when you don't feel motivated or you are chronically under-functioning.

  • Why productivity is not always the bad guy it's made out to be.

How to Choose the Right Business Coach for You

 

In episode 087 we discussed when it's the right time to hire a business mentor or coach. So now we should probably discuss how to find the right business coach for YOU!

For me, there are about five things I look for when deciding if a business coach is for me:

  1. The results the coach has gotten for themself and their clients/students. 

  2. The experience they have with the thing I am struggling with or desire. (Little tip though: a coach doesn't need to have achieved the EXACT outcome you desire to help you achieve it. It's great if they have but some of the following points matter more.)

  3. Their approach to business.

  4. Whether we share similar values.

  5. Whether the coach has qualities I could benefit from taking on.

  6. How I feel when talking with them.

  7. On the free consult call, do they listen or just tell me what to do? Do they guide me in making my own decisions, or make them for me?

  8. Do they hop on business trends simply because it's hot right now?

  9. Do I feel bullied/pressured into working with them?

Tune in to this week's podcast episode to learn more! I dive a bit deeper into these points and more.

Coaching vs Courses - Which One Is Better?

 

If you're a long-term listener of this podcast, you likely have the same desire as my other listeners: to build a simple business that allows you to live a freedom-filled life. A business that supports your life and doesn't take over it.

But you are all unique and your reasons for wanting that simple business are unique too. Just like how you learn best is unique to you.

Some of you learn best through self-study courses, others learn best through workshops, group coaching programs or 1:1 coaching.

You might be at a point in your business where you feel like you need to invest in it to get it from where it is to where you want it to be, but you aren't totally sure what's the best investment for you - 1:1 coaching, a course, or something else.

So today let's discuss how you can discern what learning style is best for YOU.

You'll learn:

- Who courses, 1:1 coaching & group coaching are each best suited for.

- Why your level of self-discipline will make or break your business investments.

- The real reason some business owners get more results from hiring a coach, if it's within their budget.
