Last week, I had the opportunity to talk with a fabulous retailer in New Zealand about her business.

 

She was doing well...

She had significantly increased revenue since purchasing the business...

She went on to tell me about how she listens to the podcast on her drive into the shop and excitedly tells her team about what she learned and all the things they need to implement.

 

I'll admit, it's always heartwarming and flattering to hear someone say they get value from the podcast.

But, even though I had that warm fuzzy feeling in my heart, ALARM BELLS were going off in my head...

 

Because this was THE EXACT SAME SCENARIO that I had once found myself in. And it was one of the worst days of my business life.

 

Listen in for what happened next.

The simple fact is, I'm good (some may say, great) at making people money and scaling businesses.
 
It's my Superpower.
 
But, I can give you all the (proven) strategies in the world...
 
What I can't do, though, is MAKE you implement them.
 
Changing the way you think, being receptive to change and let's be honest, being damn right vulnerable when it comes to MAKING HARD DECISIONS, is why most people simply stay stuck.
 
They don't want to feel uncomfortable.
 
They avoid making those hard decisions.
 
But Mavis, she deserves a freaking medal for plowing through uncomfortable, being open, honest and vulnerable, in her determination to scale. And she's going to share her story with you.

It’s not very often I’ll tell you to take financial advice from a teenager.

This conversation with my teen is worth sharing.
Can you celebrate this proud parenting moment with me...please!
 
Listen in and share this rare moment (who knows when it will happen again!)

I don't know about you, but over the pandemic, my spending habits changed. A LOT.
We bought a lot of food. Not just groceries, but things like the fanciest ice cream, because cooped up in a house, unable to leave, we had to find the "fun" in the mundane.
Fast forward a year and it feels like once again, we're changing our spending habits.
But are people still buying the fanciest ice cream? And avocado on toast?
Like most people, you're probably very critical of where you're spending your money (at home and in business).
 
Just like you, your customers shopping behavior may have changed and you might be wondering WHERE can you find those people who are cashed up, or at least spending on what you sell?
 
In this episode, Michael and I sit with our virtual cup of tea and discuss how to effectively find, connect with and convert those elusive, yet eager, spenders and be able to thrive in today’s competitive market.

I’m going to talk about something really controversial, and I may get some haters for it.

 

6-figure goal. Then 7 figures.

 

The magic million.

 

When I ask people why - it's more about the vanity metrics, or that society has built this urban myth that 7 figures is the golden land but I want to break it down and tell you why $1M isn’t enough.
