Ep 230: How to Take Smart Calculated Risks to Grow Your Business

Thursday, January 23, 2025 • Duration 25:57

Have you ever missed out on an opportunity because you were scared to take the risk?

We’ve all let chances slip by because of fear at one time or another. Maybe you’ve avoided trying something new or making an investment in your business because you just couldn’t be sure it would work out so why take the risk?

In the last two episodes, I talked about how investing in your business has the best possible ROI you will ever get, and how to break free of your fears around money.

In this episode, let’s talk about how to stop letting fear control your decisions, so that you can take smart, calculated risks that will actually move the needle forward in your business.

Tune into this episode to hear:

What is not an option if you want your business to grow
The four steps to taking a thoughtful, calculated risk
The value in investments that seem like a failure or a flop
What happens when you take calculated risks

Ep 229: The Greatest ROI: Why Your Business Beats the Stock Market

Thursday, January 16, 2025 • Duration 15:25

If you had $20,000 to invest today, would you put it in the stock market or into your own business?

One of these options could give you a 47% ROI in 5 years, but the other could give you over 1000% ROI. So which option would you choose?

For years, I thought the stock market was the gold standard for building wealth. Until I realized I was sitting on a gold mine of ROI potential: my business.

In the previous episode, I talked about the insecurity, scarcity, and fear that a lot of us feel around money and how simply making more money isn’t what’s going to eliminate that fear. What changes the game is building competence and confidence in your ability to consistently generate money, regardless of the current situation.

To gain that confidence, you have to make investments in yourself and your business.

In this episode, let’s talk about what it really means to invest in yourself and your business..

Tune into this episode to hear:

How the math works: comparing investing in the stock market and investing in your business
How investments in your business compounds in value over time
The mindset shift you need to make about spending money on your business
The only “sure thing” investment there really ever is

Ep 221: The Power of Having Clear Boundaries With Clients

Thursday, November 14, 2024 • Duration 25:06

Many branding agency owners and creative people find dealing with clients very difficult.

In my experience, and after having coached many people through difficult client experiences, I have found that the culprit is almost always lack of clarity around boundaries and expectation management.

Things often go off the rails when you can’t communicate and maintain clear boundaries with clients. That’s when you get urgent after-hours emails. That’s when you get scope creep. That’s how everyone ends up unhappy, you and your clients.

So let's talk about how to have clearer boundaries for yourself and your business and how to communicate those to your clients.

Tune into this episode to hear:

How do you create boundaries and set expectations with clients
How often you need to communicate your process
What ensures project efficiency
What actually happens when you try to be responsive always and please your clients all the time
Why maintaining boundaries around your time makes your clients value it more

Ep 131: [Client Love] A Communication Framework That Fosters Trust and Eliminates BS

Thursday, February 16, 2023 • Duration 10:54

Last week I talked about the importance of building trust with your clients in order to have a great client relationship.

If you're in a relationship or you've ever been in a long-term relationship, you know that communication is key to having great relationships with people. Now, that might be true with a spouse, but it's true with anybody in your life, and it's definitely true with clients.

So today I want to share a really simple framework that you can use with all of your communication with clients to ensure a great outcome at every step, and so that you don't waste time with all the things that can happen when communication goes astray.

Tune into this episode to hear:

Why having to refer to the contract means you’re not communicating effectively
How using “bookends” brings clarity to every client conversation
Why it’s important for a client to have the next steps clearly written out

EP 130: [Client Love] Building Trusting Relationships With Your Clients

Thursday, February 9, 2023 • Duration 18:30

Think back to the last client you truly loved working with. What did you love about it?

For me, I love to work with clients who trust me implicitly. They get a ton of value out of working with me. We vibe, we jive, and we make something truly amazing together. They are the people that I’m excited to get emails from, and who I enjoy communicating with in our meetings or phone calls.

Imagine if you loved all of your clients like that. What would that do for your business?

In honor of February, the month of love, I want to talk about client love. Specifically, I want to talk about three different aspects of a client relationship that can take us from a business transaction to something truly magical, something that lights you up, that energizes your clients, and results in much greater outcomes for your delivery.

Today I want to talk about the first ingredient in an amazing love affair with a client: trust.

Tune into this episode to hear:

How clear, consistent communication builds trust
How setting and meeting expectations for even micro-interactions turns your word into truth
Why how you interpret deadlines and send deliverables matters in building or breaking trust
How a client questioning or nagging you is a symptom of lack of trust

EP 129: The What, Why and Where of BS in our Businesses (And How to Get Rid of Them)

Thursday, January 26, 2023 • Duration 16:30

This podcast is called No BS Agencies, but what exactly do I mean by BS?

Where does it come from? Why does it happen? How much of it is acceptable in our businesses? And most importantly, how do we get rid of it?

I think a lot of people use the term BS in their marketing because it makes them sound like they’re no-nonsense. They cut to the point. They’re not going to BS you or waste your time.

But frankly, a lot of people who say they have no BS have a LOT of BS in their processes and their businesses.

So let’s get into what I mean by No BS, what a No BS agency is, and what kind of BS we’re all dealing with.

Tune into this episode to hear:

How BS sucks your time and energy as a creative and a business owner
How bad project management enables BS from clients
Why pitching for free is BS
Two ways to avoid the BS of scope creep in your projects
How to navigate pricing BS and get paid what you’re worth

Ep 128: This Will Make You Think Differently About Business Stress and Overwhelm

Thursday, January 19, 2023 • Duration 15:40

Do you ever feel, as you grow your business, that you are white-knuckling it?

You feel like you’re driving a jalopy, the door's falling off, you're putting duct tape on it, and you're just hoping it gets you to your destination.

In many senses, I’ve been white-knuckling it right along with you over the last two years as I built the No BS Agency Mastery program. Yes, I started with more authority, a bigger audience, and more confidence than someone at the true beginning of building a business, but I still started a new business with a totally new set of skills to learn and a brand new business model to learn and grow.

Through that process, I’ve had the opportunity to go back to how it felt in the beginning, and how it felt to drive that jalopy with the door hanging off.

Today I want to talk to you a little bit about why that feeling is not only okay, It's actually a sign of positive growth.

Tune into this episode to hear:

Why growth can feel stressful
Why if you’re not feeling some stress, you’re probably playing it too safe
How to reframe stress as a good sign in your business

Thursday, January 12, 2023 • Duration 15:52

Today, I want to share five of the biggest lessons I’ve learned over the last 12 years that I know will help me make the next 12 years not only more successful but also full of more ease.

Hopefully, you’ll take some of these lessons to heart faster than I did, so they can help you achieve success and add more ease to your business faster.

How to let go of treating your income like a salary and look at the big financial picture
Why focusing on the process, not the outcome, frees you up to do your best work
How to put the lows of entrepreneurship in perspective

EP 126: Three Things To Do In January To Set Up Your Entire Year For Success

Thursday, January 5, 2023 • Duration 17:04

Happy 2023 and welcome back.

Do you wanna be successful in 2023? I bet you do.

January is the time when many of us set our goals for the year. People set big ambitious goals and then a lot of times those things fall by the wayside come February.

And we do that in all aspects of our lives. Case in point: If you’re a regular gym-goer, you’ll notice the place is full in January, but by February, most of those new faces have tapered off.

So how do we avoid that big January push that doesn’t go anywhere?

Today, let’s talk about three things that you should do in January to set up your entire year for success.

Tune into this episode to hear:

Why you need to set aside time in January to map out the why and how behind your goals
How to start with the big picture and work your way back to what needs to happen month to month
Why you should identify at least three things in your calendar that you can say no to
How to make space yourself in your schedule
Why 2023 should be the year you surround yourself with a community of other entrepreneurs and business owners

Ep 125: Strategies for Not Working and Taking Time Off (and Not Feeling Guilty or Overwhelmed)

Thursday, December 15, 2022 • Duration 15:30

When you work for yourself, it’s hard to turn it off, right?

It’s hard not to think about the client who just emailed you, or the project that’s on hold, or the check you’re waiting to clear.

But working and thinking about work 24/7 is not the key to financial and business success.

As we head into the holidays, and for our last episode of 2022, I want to talk about the idea of turning off, especially when you’re stressed and maybe things aren’t going as well as you want them to be and strategies to help you really get some rest and recharge for 2023.

Tune into this episode to hear:

Why you need to have a plan in place to keep your time off, off
How to find a place for everything you need to get done in your calendar
Why you should plan for how you’re going to pick up where you left off
How to communicate with your clients about your availability
Why your notifications need to get turned off
