In today's episode, we're going to get you from confused and overwhelmed about tracking metrics in your small business to clear and confident in the three most important areas and how to get started. Many CEOs end up tracking tasks or responsibilities that don't really shed any light on the actual health and growth of the business. This mini training from our Facebook Live will change that so you are creating metrics that directly reflect your critical number. Three key takeaways to look forward to: 1. The three most crucial areas in your business that need metrics. 2. How many items to track is reasonable. 3. Who needs to be responsible for metrics, how they get reported, and when. Getting a handle on which metrics to track will get you well on your way to smoother operations and a clearer picture of where you need to adjust or revise your processes or marketing.   Did you love today’s episode? 1.

I was thankful to recently have an article published on Forbes by today’s podcast guest, Melissa Houston, life coach, founder of The Business Society, and CPA. If you’ve ever wondered what the benefit is of hiring a CPA or a fractional CFO, Melissa is pulling back the curtain in this conversation on who you need, what to look for, and why having someone manage the finances of your business is critical to your success. Three important key points to listen for in this episode: The unconventional place Melissa starts with her clients before building a financial plan. Who you need to hire and the differences between a bookkeeper, CPA, and fractional CFO. And the critical importance of not going with the cheapest option. Number one tip for challenging and unpredictable economic times. How much do you need in reserves? How can you thrive during times of inflation? We cover it all. More than anything, my wish is that this conversation brings you hope that no matter what financial situation you find yourself

The CEO life can be exhausting because we are required to continuously be growing and changing. But with the right mindset, outlook, and resources becoming the next level version of the CEO you want to be, transforms from a challenge into an opportunity. In today’s episode, I’m sharing how you can seize that opportunity with 3 ways to continuously become a next level CEO. The key points to listen for: Time away is essential. I recorded this while our family was on vacation in Florida. Everyone needs the opportunity to be able to step away from daily responsibilities to get a clearer picture of what your priorities are when you return. Tips and tricks to use and questions to ask yourself while you have time to yourself to really maximize your role as the CEO. The huge part that jealousy and faith play in the process of creating a vision of who you need to be and what you need to do to make it happen.   These three key points are important. But also make sure to listen in for one of the most crucial ele

Getting your team more accountable is one of the most commonly requested topics I get asked to talk about. In this episode, I’m using the analogy of team members with a “renter” mentality versus those who feel a sense of ownership in your business. How do we maximize who you have and get them to ownership status? Three key points to listen for: Before you can do anything else, you need to be clear on what it is you need them to take accountability for. You may even need to work on your mindset first to get to a point where you want to delegate more responsibility. Rather than tasks, you need to create the opportunity for clear accountability with systems. I dive into more detail of what that looks like and where to start. The three resources you must have in place in order for your delegation of accountability to truly be successful. Lastly, you won't want to miss the final key point I make about what will make the most difference in building a team of accountable owners rather than renters. And the g

Three key takeaways from this episode to listen for: The importance of making an impact and how to actually accomplish it. We all say we want to increase income and impact. Melody shares her perspective on what this means to her. How to take action when it feels like something is missing and you’re no longer lit up by what you’re doing as an entrepreneur.

Anthony O’Neal is on a mission to help people, specifically single people, live debt-free. He is a speaker, writer and show host, as well as the author of the groundbreaking book, Debt-Free Degree. We had a great conversation in today’s episode on recognizing the season of life that you’re in and making the most of it. Anthony makes so many amazing points about making the most of any situation in a way that empowers you to evaluate what you truly want for your life, what your financial situation needs to look like and how to make that happen. Three key takeaways from this episode to listen for: Why it’s important to discern if you’re after a reputation of character v. being on a quest for currency and the 3 “I’s” to consider when setting your financial goals.

When to have the money conversation with kids and a revolutionary tip fr

In today’s episode, though I’m not a financial expert, I’m sharing my own insight into how to recession-proof your own income as the CEO of your small business, and why you need to make it a priority sooner rather than later. I’ve seen so many business owners over the years, investing in our programs, and fully committed to their success and growth, and struggling to pay themselves a decent income. I’m embarrassed to admit that I didn’t pay myself as the owner of my dance studios for the first five years. Do not make this mistake. As the owner and CEO, you both need and deserve to experience financial security. Three key points I want you to take away from this episode: Simply start somewhere – commit to a designated amount that will be your salary. Do not let it be dependent upon the weekly or monthly business revenue. Make that amount non-negotiable. You can always change it in the future. Educate yourself on the options – The book Profit First was a game-changer for me. I highly recommend reading this

Heather Monahan shares her expertise in how to identify the “villains” in your quest for success in life and business. In this episode, we discuss how when we feel fully confident to show up authentically despite the external influences of doubt or skepticism, we can see massive results in growing our business. To clarify, the villains can be people who don’t get your purpose or mission and they can also be your own limiting beliefs. Either way, Heather shares in her book, Overcoming Your Villains, how to break free of the factors that are holding you back. Three key takeaways from this episode: How “detoxing” yourself from negative influences in your life will allow you to step more fully into your potential. We also discuss ways you can do this without compromising your relationships. Why it’s so important to reduce and eliminate the negative influences, the consequences of not doing so, and the benefit of taking steps toward more positivity and supportive relationships. When “villains” show up as int

It’s important to understand that you can’t scale a broken business model. In today’s episode, I’m helping you get to the root of the reason you’re having trouble scaling and can’t quite get past that multiple 6-figure barrier. Truly scaling means being able to take what’s working and make it available to a wider audience, increasing your revenue, without compromising your profit margin. When your business model is proven and you know you have a best-seller, there are a few reasons why you aren’t able to scale it to that 7-figure goal you’re shooting for. Three important takeaways in this episode: Realistic expectations are everything. Understanding the natural evolution of business, hitting a stumbling block and being able to fix the leaks and keep growing is critical to successfully scaling. The mindset shift you need to maintain when you get stuck and a practical strategy to keep your positive thoughts top-of-mind. 5 common problems getting in the way of scaling including risk assessment, delegation,

Listen in for these 3 important takeaways: The pivotal moment that led Megan to know she needed to take control of how she used her time. (Spoiler alert: do you have an answer when someone asks what you do for fun? If not, you need her systems.) Why if you’re serious about managing your time effectively, a to-do list just won’t cut it. And the calendar set-up you need to use to actually plan and get stuff done. The overlooked factor you need to take into consideration when planning the days and times that you will complete certain tasks. Staying in the fight-or-flight state

Today I'm joined by author, Joey Coleman. His book, Never Lose a Customer Again is such a powerful read. So powerful, in fact, that I passed it to those on my team responsible for fulfillment so we could put these strategies into place.

Joey encourages you to celebrate their purchase instead of just your sale! 3. Why repeat or long-term customers bring in more referrals. Think about it. You don't often rave about something you purchase right after you buy! Joey Coleman certainly knows hi
