Description

Are you asking yourself any of these questions? What should I do to start making money? What can I do to boost my sales? How can I accelerate the of my business? What do I need to do to advance to the next level? Sometimes, what you have to do is not the solution; it’s what you must refrain from doing. In this episode, I talk about three things you should stop doing if you want to get to where you want. Episode Highlights Three growth-inhibiting habits you must quit doing: [02:10] #1: Stop staying stuck in fear: How fear manifests itself and derails business progress [03:50] How to overcome fear [13:10] #2: Stop excessively altering your strategy. You need to have a consistent strategy.  [13:40] Explaining the brand growth framework and how it works [15:41] The value and levels of accountability [20:39] #3: Stop diminishing your objective when you fail to achieve it Quotes "Whenever we are experiencing fear, it's because we are focusing on something that is not true. Your brain has done an excellent job of focusing on the wrong thought."  "Most of you, my clients and potential clients, actually know the strategy. Often, you don't need to know more. You just need to commit to the next step. If the next step is to get expert-level support, commit to sending me a message or clicking the link and booking your call." "…commit to getting the support that will help you drive your business forward. Put yourself in a community that will help you execute that."  "Get into a community where people will tell you like it is with no fluff or BS but from a place of love. It's so easy to stay in a place where you're feeling comfortable, but if somebody doesn't challenge your thinking and beliefs, nothing will happen."  "Are you building your business based on what you really want? Or are you building your business based on what you think you can do? If you're building your business based on what you think you can do, you've minimized your genius, impacting how you show up. We have to focus on what we really want." "We have to anchor ourselves on what we really want because that pulls us forward and puts us in the energy and momentum of action and doing things. And also it brings us back to center when we find ourselves in a situation where we're not moving."  "Growing your business is easier than you think. It looks hard from the outside, but it's easier than you think if you know what you need to do. It's when you're guesstimating that you get tired and frustrated. But if you know your plan, it's just a matter of committing to the next step and deciding to navigate through the discomfort that comes with elevation."  Training: Uncap Your Growth & Bring in More Product Sales without Changing Your Branding or Packaging Work With Us: Apply to Our Apprenticeship Program: Product Profit Lab Connect with Maureen on Instagram: Maureenmwangiofficial Join our incredible community - Product Entrepreneurs Who Scale Subscribe and rate our podcast on iTunes here.
