Unreasonable.
Wild.
NEXT LEVEL success.
If you’re “okay” with mediocre success, you don’t need this post.
You’ll be just fine continuing to pass out (and receive) referral slips at your local leads group… or buying “boxes” or “schools” or “blueprints” from experts you’ll likely NEVER have an in-person conversation with… or continuing to do WHATEVER you’re currently doing.
Do what everyone else is doing LONG enough,
and eventually,
you’ll have created a decent living in your business.
But, if you want MORE.
If you want success ON YOUR OWN TERMS,
if you want success BEYOND local,
influence beyond your small circle,
if you want a business that funds your life
AND allows you to live it on your own terms.
If you want to do business without the incredible stress and strain and anxiety of always wondering where your next client is coming from… If you’re done with “business as usual” THANG and you’re ready to step into that business you REALLY want…
You know, where YOU are in demand,
where SOUL MATE clients Seek you
and find you
and show up UNANNOUNCED
with credit card in hand…
Where you can charge what you are WORTH,
and not what you think the “market will bare,”
where you’re COMPLETELY confident turning AWAY clients that are PITA… because the DEMAND for your work allows you to work:
WHERE you want,
WITH WHO you want,
and HOW you want…
PLEASE,
keep reading.
MOST of what you’ve heard so far about business is dead wrong. (Hence, you know… that pesky 80% failure rate.)
So, what do women entrepreneurs NEED in order to create WILD success on their own terms?
Here
we
go:
1) A manifesto, creed, tendency towards DEFIANCE.
I created Women Who WOW to be THE place for women entrepreneurs who couldn’t BARE to attend another “business as usual” meeting. I created WOW to be THE place for women who DARE to break the rules, who refuse to — and resent any HINT of assumption that they should — try to “fit in.” Because there are an AWFUL lot of rule followers out there masquerading as badasses.
But watch closely.
They CAREFULLY dot every “i.”
They DUTIFULLY follow the leader.
They ROUTINELY look around to be sure they’re not standing out TOO MUCH.
They DESPERATELY seek your applause.
IF you want OUTRAGEOUS success,
ON YOUR OWN TERMS,
you must embrace a healthy dose of defiance.
You must get used to standing out,
having attention,
slinging YOUR TRUTH at your market,
waving your own flag.
I am here for the “crazy” ones.
The ones who actually have the AUDACITY to believe that they are made for, born for, created for OUTRAGEOUS success… the ones who are determined to make “bank” AND a difference. The “crazy ones” who will do what others won’t in order to increase their influence, their impact and — yes, of course — their income.
Defiance.
Like confidence,
and certainty,
ARE CONTAGIOUS.
Which leads me to the SECOND thing that women entrepreneurs need to succeed WILDLY and on their own terms.
2) FINICKY ASSOCIATION.
Women Who WOW members BENEFIT dramatically from being around OTHER industry makers, from hanging around other defiant ones.
And — equally important — foregoing “association” with those who are “normal,” those “entrepreneurs” plodding along in a perpetual groundhog day of preparing and branding and following the rules….
Because you know what ELSE is contagious?
Timidity.
Playing small.
Being afraid to stand out or take a risk.
I can attest to the fact that MOST “groups” of small business owners (women – only or otherwise) are a CESS POOL of small thinking and small acting. And it rubs off. You’ve been warned.
3) NUANCED DIRECTION.
You simply will not gain much from a “box” or a 6-week “school” that was created — who knows when — for mass consumption.
NO, your business ISN’T “different.”
The same rules for sales and marketing are MOSTLY finite…. timeless…. and all of that STILL applies.
Of course.
BUT, you ARE different.
And the times are ALWAYS changing.
Seriously driven women entrepreneurs
SMART women entrepreneurs,
need and DEMAND
real time feedback…
ACCESS to their leaders,
They want to SHAPE the training they get,
so that it is ALWAYS the perfect fit.
I had a Women Who WOW member ask me yesterday how I always seemed to write about what was TOP OF MIND for her… every single day…
On repeat.
How, indeed.
Well, I KNOW my members.
When their membership fee comes through,
I CELEBRATE.
But I also check them out.
I visit their site.
I peruse their social media accounts.
I get to know them.
I think of ways I can promote them.
I have ideas for their growth.
This way, I can give NUANCED training and direction,
for THEM…
And not some “off the shelf” GENERAL guidance,
that could apply to ANYONE.
And also, Women Who WOW members have private access to me…. 1:1 TWICE a month… plus e-mail coaching once a month… plus constant connection.
Anything less is busy work,
a false sense of being mentored,
of being “coached.”
4) PACE INSPIRATION.
Look, I make more money,
and have more influence,
and make a bigger impact….
Because I do MORE than most people.
YET, I am STILL largely done with my “work” — which includes Bible time and journaling time — by 11 AM EST.
My PACE,
members say,
inspires them.
I am at peace,
radiate calm,
but I PRODUCE more content,
show up DAILY,
SERVE them DAILY.
Many say that they get more DONE in ONE month — with WOW membership — than they did in the previous year. Many increase their income BY MULTIPLES in the first few months of membership.
Why? PACE.
They PICK UP THEIR PaCE.
They indulge “self-doubt” a lot less. (Doubting yourself — it turns out– takes a LOT of time.)
They no longer pursue “perfection” (an illusion…. it doesn’t exist.)
They begin to INHALE confidence and certainty
and EXHALE service…
faster than they ever thought possible.
And their market takes notice.
There’s more… but I’ll save the last 3 things for tomorrow. In the meantime, if you think this post an OVERT PUSH for Women Who WOW membership, well… you’re right.
If you are a seriously driven entrepreneur and are COMMITTED to outrageous success on your own terms… WOW is your tribe. Join us. Message me for details.
