Remember my guests and I aren’t giving you specific business advice. The information we’re sharing is for educational and entertainment purposes only. If you need help be sure to seek out a trained professional whether it’s a financial advisor, business advisor, tax professional, or healthcare provider.
Listen in as Deb and I discuss:
- What drives us to start our businesses and how we end up with the opposite of what we want
- The amount of money she thinks you should reasonably expect to invest in launching and growing your business
- The common mistakes corporate escapees make with the money they invest in their startups and where they should invest instead
- Why your reputation isn’t enough to launch your business and the two things you need to focus on
- The two biggest mistakes she sees people make – I’ll bet you’ve made or are making at least one of them.
- What you need to stop hiding behind and stop spending money on
- The 10K investment she made in her own training as an entrepreneur that’s still paying dividends
- Why you often need a coach and a community to make the advances you dream of.
As always, listen all the way to the end where I’ll share your cocktail exercise and action step for this episode.
