152. You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question to Plan for Time Off & Have Your Business Run Like a Well-Oiled Machine

You can’t open up social media without getting a dose of advice for how you’re supposed to run your business, make money, create success, and generally live your life.  And, I bet you’ve heard your fair share of unsolicited “business tips” from well-meaning family, friends, and peers.  It’s a funny phenomenon - us humans love to make ourselves feel good by telling others what we know and think will help them - I know I got the most acting input from people who’d never set foot on a set or stage before 😜 While I know no one creates epic success and big money results in a silo or solo, I also know, not all the things you’re told are going to support you or help move you forward. That’s why, in this episode, we’re unpacking ONE Question to Tune OUT the Noise and INTO What Most Supports Your Success. We’re diving into why you might be unknowingly listening to and following someone else’s path or advice, and how to use your answer to stay out of your own way, get clear on what’s true and best for your version of success, and show up in your CEO role to run your business like a business for six and seven-figure results.  Episode Links: Have an unapologetic question you want Kim to answer in an upcoming episode?

151. ONE Question to Tune OUT the Noise and INTO What Most Supports Your Success

It feels pretty crummy when you book a ‘hell yes’ client who’s all about what you’ve got to offer only to have them cancel, ask for a refund, or ghost the following day. Or to book people in for your retreat who are SO excited, only to have them bail weeks before your event you’ve put deposits down for. It’s also confusing AF when you have a great sales call with someone who seems like a right-fit client, tells you they’re interested, only to have them decide they’re a ‘no’ because it wasn’t feeling like a full-bodied ‘hell yes.’ That’s why in this bite-size biz lesson, I’m answering one of your unapologetic questions and demystifying the concept of ‘if it’s not a ‘hell yes’ it’s a hell no’. In Episode 150, we jam on:  Why I'm not a dan of using 'hell yes' as your only decision-making tool as a CEO, and how this can cause you to make poor decisions, bring in misaligned clients, or have you miss out working with people who are a great fit.  The red flags that comes with 'hell yesses' and the strategy you can use instead to qualify your clients, sell with integrity, and avoid buyer's remorse to fill your programs with clients who love to pay you.  Why I recommend focusing on a TRUE yes instread of a 'hell yes', the reasons it might now be a 'hell yes' right from the start - even with your best-fit clients, and what to focus on instead to book true yes clients who stick around.

150. You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question for TRUE Yes Clients Who Stick Around

Most people say navigating sales objections or knowing how to effectively follow up is the toughest part of mastering your sales process. But, judging by the questions my clients have been bringing me for over seven years, I’d guess for many of you the biggest challenge is actually understanding what your potential clients are telling you…and if they have an objection in the first place for you to navigate or follow up with. If you’re nodding your head yes, this week’s episode is for you! We’re unpacking ONE Question to Master the #1 Sales Skill. In Episode 149, we jam on:  The most essential and often neglected sales skill and how to leverage your answer to this ONE Question to step up your game.  The true goal of your sales process, and how to discern if you're getting in your own way and leaving money on the table.  Three reasons people don't buy, and the exact steps you can take when you aren't clear on why a potential client isn't moving forward with your offer.  How to avoid misreading the room and being pushy and when to lean in and support someone with a sales objection so you can book more right-fit clients.  How to "solve the right problem" and discern if you have a mindset gap or sales strategy gap to close.

149. ONE Question to Master #1 One Sales Skill

It can be confusing AF to be an entrepreneur online in 2023 - one expert tells you to charge high-ticket prices to attract ‘premium clients’ while someone else advises you to lower your rates to be competitive in the current economy. One coach tells you they ‘codes’ they used to energetically quantum leap to multi-millions while Gary V tells you to show up and share more content. And, then there’s the money talk.

147. ONE Question to Run at Results You *Actually* Want in Business

One of the trade offs with running a service-based business is that you, the CEO, are also usually responsible to show up to deliver a service. No, this isn’t a conversation about the pros and cons of a 1:1 practice (though, I’m here for that, too) or to talk about “trading time for money” (don’t get me started, every EVERY business owner is trading their time for money in some capacity). It IS a conversation about the kind of real self-care that gives you the energy to show up as a CEO to run your business like a business and serve your people well…a.k.a. taking care of the golden goose that lays the golden eggs. Join me in this bite-size biz lesson, and my unapologetic answer to one of your unapologetic questions in You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question to Take Care of the Golden Goose (that’s YOU)  In Episode 146, we jam on:   what I learned after a decade of acting in Hollywood about taking care of the golden goose and how this principle applies to you if you want to create and sustain your own golden eggs and six and seven-figure results year after year.   some real talk about capacity and your baseline energy tank, and why this is essential to understand to reach your business goals without burnout.   one of the most important - and basic - factors I focus on, how this affects my energy levels, and exactly what I use to set my work schedule so I know I’m always bringing my A-game (no, it’s not time blocking or a calendaring system).   my daily non-negotiables I focus on to maximize my energy, well-being, and how these support running a business and getting big results (hint: I don’t take any wild supplements or have any high-tech secrets and these are all principles you already know).

Join me in this bite-size biz lesson, and my unapologetic answer to one of your unapologetic questions in You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question to Take Care of the Golden Goose (that’s YOU)  In Episode 146, we jam on: <ul> <li> what I learned after a decade of acting in Hollywood about taking care of the golden goose and how this principle applies to you if you want to create and sustain your own golden eggs and six and seven-figure results year after year. </li> <li> some real talk about capacity and your baseline energy tank, and why this is essential to understand to reach your business goals without burnout. </li> <li> one of the most important - and basic - factors I focus on, how this affects my energy levels, and exactly what I use to set my work schedule so I know I’m always bringing my A-game (no, it’s not time blocking or a calendaring system). </li> <li> my daily non-negotiables I focus on to maximize my energy, well-being, and how these support running a business and getting big results (hint: I don’t take any wild supplements or have any high-tech secrets and these are all principles you already know). </li> </ul> Episode Links: Sign up for the Free Masterclass, Strategic Stories that Sell <a href="https://bit.ly/stories-that-sell-oq" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">here</a> <a href="https://kimargetsinger.com/podcast/episode-144/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Episode 144: You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question to Hold and Serve More Clients Without Burning Out</a> Have an unapologetic question you want Kim to answer in an upcoming episode?

145. ONE Question to Attract Your Right-Fit Clients

Whether you only work 1:1 with clients like me, or run a group program, mastermind, or membership model, balancing capacity, delivery, and income goals is essential if you want sustainable success. In fact, something I support many clients as they’re growing to multi-six and seven figures is understanding how to manage their bandwidth so they preserve their passion and avoid wanting to burn it all down as they scale. Join me in this bite-size biz lesson, and my unapologetic answer to one of your unapologetic questions in You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question to hold and serve more clients without burning out.  In Episode 144, we jam on:   why I recommend focusing on capacity over revenue when you’re looking to scale and one of the ways I see entrepreneurs unintentionally set themselves up for burn out.   how I’m able to work fewer hours than ever before with a fully booked roster and sustain being fully booked for over 4.5 years (and enjoy my life outside business).   the truth about maximizing your time and holding and serving more clients in any container, and why this has nothing to do with time management.   the essential mindset shift that allows you to expand your capacity and the framework I created to help you apply this thought process to your own business.

I don’t have success because I’ve managed to avoid challenges or the metaphorical and literal sh*t storms in business or life. My decade acting in Hollywood is littered with hurdles I skinned my knees trying to jump over for as many as I cleared. Manhattan and its overpriced rent greeted me with a bathroom ceiling that caved in on my way to an interview I’d spent six months working to get in the advertising world, but not before spraying my hair with some of the sewage. I’ve had more sticky situations over my previous ten years serving cocktails at the bar - including chasing thugs down Sunset Blvd to pay their tab and navigating conflicts with a prince and A-list producer - than I can count. Point being, I can do hard things and still create success, and so can you.  That’s why in this week’s episode, we’re unpacking ONE Question to handle sh*t storms in business and come out winning.  We’re diving into:    the number one skill set and mindset that serves you as an entrepreneur.   how to use this question as a pattern interrupt to shift your focus so you can creatively problem-solve to find the hidden opportunities for growth and profit in any mess.   how to avoid freezing during challenges so you can show up, lead, and take action like a CEO to win in any circumstance.    Episode Links: Sign up for Free Masterclass: Strategic Stories that Sell here Episode 95: ONE Question to Stretch Your Capacity to Serve &amp; Scale Have an unapologetic question you want Kim to answer in an upcoming episode?

143. ONE Question to Handle Sh*t Storms in Business and Come Out Winning

We talk a lot about your role as a CEO, your mindset, strategy - messaging, marketing, sales, and leadership - and the action your business needs from you to make six and seven figures. What we don’t talk about much? The financial resources or funding you and your business need to grow and scale. Because what I’ve seen after over seven years in business scaling my own booked out 1:1 practice to recurring multi-five-figure cash months is it really does take money to make money. Businesses require ressources, financial and time, to make it past ideation to market and profit. Since you’re likely a small business owner like my clients and myself, my guess is going the VC (venture capital) route isn’t in the cards. This means, you’re likely self-funding your business, whether that’s from your savings, a loan, credit card, your 9-5, or an additional side hustle. Which begs the question, if your business needs cash to grow, is it smart to pick up an extra gig to generate funds, or is that a distraction of focus or a “bad” mindset that isn’t trusting success? Join me in this bite-size biz lesson, and my unapologetic answer to one of your unapologetic questions in You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question to Financially Resource Yourself &amp; Your Business as You Grow &amp; Scale. In Episode 142, we jam on:  my candid thoughts on the narratgives onlines about quitting your job gto prove you're all-in on your business success and manifest results, what the studies tell us is true, and why this isnt a one-size-fit-all answer.  looking at Maslow's Hierarchy of Need to help you discern your next right step forward in business.  what I'd consider when making a deicision about whehter or not to pick up a side hustle, what worked for me to grow this business to its first six figures, and how to apply this to your business to support yourself and set you up for your first and next six or seven figures.   Episode Links: Have an unapologetic question you want Kim to answer in an upcoming episode?

142. You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question to Financially Resource Yourself & Your Business as You Grow & Scale

Let’s be real, you might know showing up neutrally as a CEO to make decisions and run your business is the name of the game, but that can also create more pressure to get things right.

139. ONE Question to Connect & Sell on a Deeper Level

The simple truth in business is if you want to sell more, sell more. In fact, this is one of the most common notes I give my clients that allows them to make more money. And, not selling consistently is one of the biggest ways I see talented entrepreneurs limit their success and income. But, just how much should you sell or how often can you sell before you’re being annoying, pushy, or too salesy? Join me in this bite-size biz lesson, and my unapologetic answer to one of your unapologetic questions in You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question for Sales Actions that Stack Up &amp; Bring You Clients Ready to Buy. In Episode 138, we jam on:  why the common school of thought and Gary V's "jab, jab, jab, right hook" might be slowing you down and a different way to think about sales acti8ons so you know exactly how often to sell to speed up your customer journey.  the two kinds of sales actions I coach my cients to take everyday, how these actions support one another and help you avoid the sales ick, and how to leverage these actions to sell to speed up your customer journey.  The mindset I have around making offers that you're welcome to borrow to feel fully in integrity and service when you sell.   Episode Links: FREE access to 6-week sales course, Sell Out Without Feeling Like a Sellout until June 30, 2023.

137. ONE Question for the Shortcut to Mastering Sales

Finding the line between being generous and over-giving in business, especially when you’re offering free value, can be tricky to walk for many heart-centered and service-driven entrepreneurs. After all, you know being willing to share value and build know, like, and trust before you ask for a sale is not only feel-good, but also smart business strategy. You’ve probably also heard, ‘Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?’ and wondered where to draw the line. Or maybe you just keep finding yourself ‘friend-zoned’ with potential clients you’re coaching for free in the DMs and don’t know how to side-step this without undermining the relationships you’re building. Join me in this bite-size biz lesson, and my unapologetic answer to one of your unapologetic questions in You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question About Navigating Boundaries When Giving Free Value. In Episode 136, we jam on:   how to understand the context in which free serves you and your potential clients, and when to set a clear boundary.   my thought process behind offering free versus paid that you’re welcome to try on for size, and how this supports your ability to offer an abundance of free value, and also hold your paid containers to a high standard.   how to navigate FB groups and DMs without turning into a free-advice machine so you’re teaching others to respect your time, skills, and service.

136. You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question About Navigating Boundaries When Giving Free Value

If you’re anything like many of my high achieving clients and me, you might have a bit of ‘hard work equals success’ tape that plays in the background. Look, TBH, business does require a little elbow grease, especially at the start, and there are challenges that will present themselves as you grow and scale. But, there’s a difference between working hard and making things harder than they need to be. After seven years running my own profitable business and supporting clients to six, multi-six, and seven figures without burning out or burning it all down, I can also tell you, hard work will only get you so far, and at a certain level, this mindset can be the very limitation that keeps you stuck and getting in your own way. That’s why, in this week’s episode, we’re unpacking ONE Question to break up with pressure &amp; blow up your business.  We’re digging into the surprising shift that helped me book more parts during my acting days and again supported me from going from grinding it out to getting booked out, the practice backed by research you can adopt today to boost creativity and results, and exactly why there’s so much resistance to this powerful approach so you can unhook from what’s holding you back and bust through your own income ceilings.

135. ONE Question to Break Up with Pressure & Blow Up Your Business

You’ve likely heard the concept of “pick and stick”. You know, pick one social media platform and stick with it. Ditto for one marketing strategy and one offer to sell. This is solid business advice, and what I’d generally suggest as well.  And, I get it’s also confusing when you look around and see entrepreneurs with multiple social media plaforms they’re serving audiences on (like my FB group of 16k+, Business Besties &amp; Creative Bosses and my IG account). Or when you see so-and-so rocking multiple strategies to get visible, nurture their people, and selll…or someone else is bragging on their millions made from an offer suite with multiple programs. Which one is it?! Pick and stick, or do more to make more? Good question, and I’ve got you covered. Join me in this bite-size biz lesson, and my unapologetic answer to one of your unapologetic questions in You Asked, I Answered: ONE Question ONE Question to Leverage Multiple Strategies, Platforms, &amp; Offers  In Episode 134, we jam on:   why ‘pick and stick’ still holds true even when you’re adding on something new, and the best time to bring on additional strategies, platforms, and offers to grow to your first six figures or scale to multi-six and seven figures.   what to do first and max out before increasing your marketing and sales to-do list to get the most out of your current strategies and “do less, better” and increase conversions.   the questions I ask my clients and myself to get clear on the next best step to support your business goals.   what I suggest you check in on before adding on anything new to avoid overspending and cutting into your profits and how to find the line that supports revenue growth AND your take home pay.
