Here’s the problem:
The last few weeks, a few big clients reached out to us (me and my husband, he’s a marketing expert) and we signed 4 and 5-figure contracts.
This threw me off balance.
Selling services can make you SO MUCH MONEY. My God!
I know if my focus goes there, with all the know-how and credibility we already have, we’ll cross the million dollar mark easy.
But I thought back to that time when I had a service business and I was just so miserable. I’m a HUGE empath and when I work with lots of people, I’m soaking in their emotions. I don’t want to be in meetings all day long, even if it pays the world.
And you know what else helped?
The Solopreneur Assessment I designed with the help of a friend who’s a professional therapist.
I took it myself and it turned out I'm an Artist and my best solo business is a content business. Not that I didn’t know this already, but it’s so easy to get distracted online.
In fact, I’d say it’s the #1 problem most of us have. It’s not that we don’t know what to do, it’s that we can’t choose what to do.
Yesterday, I chose.
Well, I chose again (because of how I got distracted for a while).
And I chose Substack. Substack is again my top priority. Everything else is secondary.
This is NOT to say that my content will be all about Substack. I’ll just figure out how to make the best of Substack to distribute my message: anyone can build the business of their dreams online.
If you want to learn what’s the business of your dreams, the “What type of solopreneur are you?” professional assessment will tell you what’s your business, what are your strengths and weaknesses, and specific tactics for overcoming your weaknesses.
It’s available for paid subscribers below.
(Also, if you become a paid subscriber by the end of July, you’ll get a 30-minute coaching session with me, a professional business coach and a 6-figure online writer).
Remember, focus is magic!
