Somewhere inside you, you know without a doubt you are an expert. Maybe you are in the early stages of this awareness or perhaps you are already standing tall in your authentic power. Either way, here are 4 tips to help you rise to the top, and stay there.
Tip #1- Turn up your voice of courage and turn down your voice of fear.
Courage is not the absence of fear. Courage is feeling your fear and moving forward anyway. Every successful business person has wanted to throw their hands in the air and quit at times…every single one. What breeds rich success, is the ability to feel fear and do it anyway.
At every stage of your growth, you need to work on turning down the volume of fear, and turning up the volume of courage.
Tip #2- Give clients what they really want, not what you think they need
As you many of you know, I used to try to convince stay-at-home moms to go back to work- as part of their healthy balance. Guess what I learned? They must be ready to return to work. That’s an internal shift that I can’t make happen. That chapter of my career was one of painstakingly slow growth- because I was giving them what I thought they needed- not what they really wanted.
Now, I give my clients what they really want- a clear path to reach their financial goals, so they can live their values and enjoy their freedom.
My earlier mistake is all too common. Are you giving your clients what they really want?
Tip #3- Market, market and market some more.
Most of us don’t like to market ourselves. However, I can promise you that you won’t become or remain a premier expert in your field, without a consistent effort in marketing.
First, think of marketing as sharing your wisdom and service with others. If you don’t tell them about you, how will they learn about you? How will they benefit from your services if they don’t know what you offer?
Figure out which forms of marketing work best for your clients. Then, hire assistance to make sure ongoing marketing is a part of your business.
Tip #4- Ask for guidance and be open to new opportunities that appear.
Spiritual literature is filled with examples of how the Universe offers us opportunities when we ask for them. I’ve experienced this phenomenon many times throughout my life and rely on it on a daily basis.
At each level of your business, ask for help where you are stuck, and then pay attention. It’s up to you to trust your intuition.
