Taking Action to Move Your Business Forward
When you are clear about the core focus of your work (Goal #1) and you have firmed up your business foundation (Goal #2), you are ready to take the actions to grow your business (Goal #3).
Not just any actions, but strategic actions taken consistently in the right order.
My Philosophy for Moving Forward…Continuously
Although it’s tempting to think you should wait to start your business until you have it all figured out…
Or you may think you should take big leaps of faith to go big from the start…
Both of these tactics are likely to cause you to put on the brakes more often than necessary.
When I was starting my current business, I had had enough of both of the above strategies.
In the past when I tried to build out a business in great detail before I shared my work with others, I was often left with a service that didn’t speak to them or meet the needs of my clients.
In the past when I tried to jump to market my business more broadly than I was comfortable with, I always put on the brakes before I made much progress or the fear and discomfort I telegraphed had the opposite effect than I wanted. Rather than magnetizing clients to my work, I repelled them. A crushing disappointment every time.
Taking a different Path forward
Using a combination of my transition expertise and my clarity experience, I discovered a way to grow business organically, layer by layer.
My clients and I have found this approach to be healing, supportive, inspiring, and clarifying. Rather than wait for a Big Launch to see if your offers work, you begin getting feedback from the start so you know your offer works before you share it with the world.
In the process, you experience:
Less stress
Less worry
Fewer failures
Less procrastination
This organic approach isn’t something you apply just once.
It’s an ongoing, iterative journey that brings more and more clarity, alignment, and confidence throughout your career as a Change Catalyst Entrepreneur whether you are:
Starting your business
Reimagining your business
Developing your unique body of work
As you incorporate this gentle, organic approach to your work and your business, you'll see your results build layer by layer, month after month, year after year.
You’ll discover how it feels when you are aligned with your work and your clients. Knowing this feeling will help you refine what you are creating so it can grow organically. Through this process you’ll become more attuned to your natural moments of hesitation and know how to search for the wisdom that gives you insights about your growing edge.
Experiencing this approach to evolving your work and your business at this early stage of your career as a Change Catalyst Entrepreneur will provide you with perspectives, skills, and strategies you can use throughout your career. You’ll discover specific ways to refine what you do, your offers, and your marketing based on feedback from your clients, your colleagues, and your potential clients.
