Your business may seem overwhelmed by constant change, and you may feel frustrated with the lack of results.


Many small to medium size business owners – even large corporations – find it challenging to properly reach their fans and ideal audience and struggle to measure accurate monetary results from their marketing efforts.

#1 Mistake – No business plan – Does that sound familiar to you? 

It sounds like how I started. I didn’t think I’d ever catch on, and then I finally figured out my mistakes and how I would help others with their blogging and coach them to help them reach their business goals.

  • I went networking three times a week for a year or more and learned who my niche was and what they needed. I gave presentations at the meetings and got better at training. 
    • I did get 20 people to sign up for my coaching group and discovered I loved helping the right people! People I wanted to help and people who liked what I could help them with.

Vision = SenecaWhy have a business wish list, to start off your business vision work?

Using a wish list for your business vision is one of the quickest ways of knowing what you want in and for your business future.

Write down all the things you want for your business as if you were waving a magic wand.

When you feel excited about what you’re writing, know that can be your inspiration and motivation.

Because the fuel of your business is awareness of where you want to be and being able to separate out where you are now.

Your business vision is the groundwork for your business plan.

Without a business vision, how will you know where you want to go? Without a destination, how will you create a road map to get you there? Read more
