10 truths about running a business that makes money
Your Marketing Made Easy: the launch diaries ⚡
I’m going to be sending emails for a week only about my 12 week programme to craft your online home and voice: Your Marketing Made Easy. I hope these emails will be enjoyable to receive, but if you’d like to keep hearing from me, just not about this, please click on this link and toggle the slider next to “Your Marketing Made Easy” so it goes from green to off.
Here’s ten truths I’ve learned about running a successful business, being a freelancer or a thriving performance career:
You have to love your work, because running a business where there is no safety net of a salary or a company behind you requires love and courage;
Everyone feels like an imposter at times. Imposter syndrome is real and it is exhausting. Imposter syndrome is quelled when we have real clarity over our values, our mission and our why;
Knowing our values, our mission and our why is not something we do once and then that’s something ticked off the to-do list - it is something we need to reflect on frequently;
FOMO and straight-up jealousy are made much more intense by the internet and its desire to SHOVE EVERYTHING IN OUR FACE. Reframing jealousy into respect and admiration (and aspiration) is a wonderful place go get to;
There isn’t necessarily ever a point where you feel like you’ve become enough of an authority to speak with confidence about your area of expertise: you just need to keep speaking, because trust me, you know more than enough;
Getting more clients or work isn’t about constantly filling your head with more stuff: it’s about showing those clients and work how you can help them;
You don’t have to be on social media to have a thriving business;
You don’t have to be OFF social media to be happy - social media is amazing if it’s the right place for you;
Procrastination and perfectionist tendencies are not your fault - but there are techniques you can use to overcome them, but only if your work is rooted in courage and compassion;
Strategies, software and systems are brilliant. They’re fairly useless if you don’t have clarity, confidence and courage in our work - and trying to find that consistently by yourself is hard.
And it’s those 10 reasons that led to me creating Your Marketing Made Easy.
