Your recruitment Process. Don’t have one? It’s time to get to work creating an effective process that’s replicable and reliable.

The Type of Person you’re looking for. Really take the time to think about who will fit your business culture. It’s not only about skill – there’s attitudes and values to consider also.

Where you’ll find them. Get creative with where you’re finding your ideal team member and how you’re representing your brand in the process.

There’s loads of great tips in this video to help you find the right person, every time (well as close to every time as humanly possible!)

    Want to break through to higher income level but believe you can only get there by working twice as hard?

    The first thing you want to do is work out your beliefs about working harder to earn more. Where did you learn that from? Is it true? Let’s bust some of those myths! 

    Here are 4 ways you can double your income without doubling your efforts:

    1. Raise your prices
    2. Restructure your business to allow for different rates for different roles.
    3. Is there a way to move beyond an hour for money service into leveraged income? 
    4. Outsource the little jobs that take up your time so that you can focus that time on bringing in the income. 

    Once you start exploring other options for increasing your income without increasing the amount of hours you work you will start to see an impact on the bottom line.

          It’s not about how many balls you have in the air anymore, it’s about understanding of how many tabs you have open when it comes to growing your business, managing your money and prioritising life outside of work to make sure your operating system runs as efficiently as possible.  

           

          5 things you can do to step back from your business, for the health of your business

          PART 2:  We take a deeper dive into how you can make time, to take time out of your business (despite your chaotic schedule). So that you can run your business and your business stops running you.

          When you take a step back from your business, you see things in a different light and from a different perspective. This means you can start seeing things (opportunities, different ways of doing things) that you can’t see when you’re stuck in that state of whirlwind.  

          5 things you can do to take a step back: 

            1. Prioritise at least one thing a week that focus’ solely your your health and well being.
            2. Make sure you have a business plan that focuses on big picture strategy. It doesn’t have to be complicated – a plan on a page is great!  
            3. Look to your community of biz besties for support (could be a mastermind group) so that you’re having great conversations about scaling and growing your business, overcoming real-time challenges and up-level’ing your business and your life.  
            4. Lock in a minimum of 2 days every 6 months (at a minimum – ideally every quarter) to do a holistic business retreat where you go away and focus solely and wholly on business strategy and learning how to prioritise life whilst running a successful business.  
            5. Put structure and systems in place to help with accountability around prioritise you, creating and checking the progress of your business strategy, doing your business retreats and quarterly check-ins, having those conversations with your biz besties. 

           

          Remember – it’s costing YOU and your business more if you don’t take time out to look at things strategically and from a big picture point of view. 

          5 critical reasons to take a helicopter view of your business

          PART 1:  We explore the 5 main reasons you must make the time to step back and take a helicopter view of your business.. even if you don’t have time.

          You might think the best thing you can do for your business is to JUST.KEEP.GOING.  

          But it’s not!  

          If you don’t take the time to step back and look at your business from a helicopter (big picture, longer term) view you risk… 

            1. Firstly, missing opportunities to better your business (and yourself) because you’re constantly in a state of reactive instead of proactive. This means you’re holding your business back without even realising it. 
            2. Burnout – the impact on your health and taking time away from your family and doing things you love because you’re in the whirlpool of business. 
            3. Becoming dispassionate, disengaged, disconnected from business and the reason why you went into business in the first place. We know it’s not all about money – we want to create a business that means something.  
            4. You risk losing the love of the business because you’re getting dragged into the day-to-day doing instead of doing the work you thrive doing. 
            5. You might start to resent the work … and in some cases your clients. 

          The reality of all of this is that it is without a doubt, costing you and your business more if you don’t step back and look at it from a helicopter view perspective.
