how to keep the momentum. be in the moment as something goods, beautiful comes by. focus on being grateful listen to inspirational talkes thinking about the people I let go of when I don’t give what I can give

Knowing that all7 are important for me… #1 been seen by my ideal client. #2 as an expert #3 work smarter not harder

more valuable Make a method out of what you do. (like Stephan Covey did) find a unique product (a must have) make it ready to take over (for a new owner)

Where you are today, and where you want to be in the future? What is the most important purpose your business should take you to? For me it’s growth, contribution, fun and love. If your business would get you to that “destination” how would your life (both professional AND personal) look like? I would have a little house on the river- and woodside. My place to r… Read More

create co-ownerschip with one or two other people.(few years befor you want to stop) in my ‘work’…train other people (train the trainer) so they can take the job further

Boost the profits: * give the same value in less time (so that you can give to more people) * raise the price little by little so people don’t really notice. * use commercial material

Think strategically: It can be a personal thing. * where am I now and where do I want to go (start with the end in mind). Is the step I want to take helping in that direction? * Helpful are the questions : where can I do more/less/different or stop.

What is your/your business big vision? On 31-12-2030 contributed to 1.000.000 families with my company ‘gezinscommunicatie’ WHO do you help (target audience)?

according to what has been said Give them a chance to grow. ‘there is no failure, there is only growth’ Give responsibility pp and als as a group (to support or help each other and stagger qualities

Celebrate succes: * treat myself AND share that with others. * plan the celebration with others * make it a team celebration (work together/celebrate together and make a habit of it)

Get them to like you. * dare to be vulnerable * accept different worldview * stay in positive energy * see and hear them

New product. * react on FAQ from your costumers. * be clear about the pains it solves * offer a try-out

How to take more time off? * what helps me is to plan with someone else (family or friends) * make a plan for the off-time. It helps to stick to it. * Have a dog who takes me out, helps for daily off time.

How to add more personality in your own business? * tell about what happens in my everyday work. (gezinscommunicatie) * tell about asked questions and given answers * Be open about thoughts or direction of solutions. * be clear about people you can help (or not- your niche – and own experiences)

Combine ideas Show your own idea to others and ask their idea. Ask the question: What would you do if you had more time/ money/resources etc What if you had less time/money/ etc Start with the end in mind.

A joke a day keeps the doctor away. draw a smile (with lipstick) on your mirror focus on your mimic (make a smile once in a while while your working) don’t take yourself so damn serious 🙃

Holding back, waiting for a better idea Believing others more than myself/ and compare thinking time is over (am I too old?) being afraid try to arrange things out of controle

Include the goal into the daily habbits. (routines or succes habbits) when possible, create a team. (a dream team)

besides al the good tips yet given. What words do your client use for the problem they want to be solved? Use them. This helps in the trust. Know how much thinking time works for your clients Get your client in the yes mode. keep your clients engaged in the accelerated learning way

There is so much mentioned…good stuff. pay-systems direct debits

Hold the lead or get the lead in the conversation. (this to avoid a waterfall of words that bring you nowhere) A lot of you already named ways to do that. ‘interrupt’ and say: I like to help you and I can be more of help it you tell me what your question is.

How to NOT get overwhelmed by all idea’s and information. AND stay well informed. How to stick to your subject/core business and give a lot.

In a podcast I heard. Business is easy, life is hard.( like Ine’s husband said ) Maybe that’s not always true but when you’re healthy and your family or loved ones are and nobody is in danger. Do all the things everybody said and take it ‘easy’

I help parents to raise their kids. As a parent you know what you want for your kids and how you want to raise them. I help you how to communicate so it is easy and joyful. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariasimons1/

Things to do everyday aside for what has been said. – have a good night sleep – have healthy meals – do good to at least 1 person – give a smile away (and look what happens) – check if the todo list is stil oke to do.

a lot has been said. – start to help people around you and afterwards, ask if they know someone who can benefit from your service. – reward a lead

Get people to buy from you. – start with a free webinar (give first) – keep it (laagdrempelig) accessible in the beginning

content – write the content down at the moment you are ‘in the moment’ or enthusiast. – the same but then use audio recording (to remember the heat of the moment)

questions – what does happen if you do what you want to do? – what does happen when you don’t do what you want to do? – what does not happen when you do what you want to do? – what does not happen when you do not do what you want to do?

win-win-win – let your specialty be a part of a bigger training, school of business – ask someone else to be a part of your business (so that’s the other way around)

risk management – My income comes from three directions (three pillars) – have an insurance for what (through me) happens to others. – have an insurance for myself – low costs

Social media content. – use a metafoor – tel about an expérience (thats a bit like live)

be convinced you have it…self discipline. Chose when and how much you want te use it. Say it to yourself and be happy, grateful, thankful with it.

Besides al you already mentioned: When I procrastinate I start doing other things. I remove the attractive things … having time leads me to do the little steps I already planned. Working together helps me a lot.

‘Communication is being set by the reaction that you get” (from NLP) When we talk, we repeat what we know. When we listen, we might hear something new. Put our own thoughts or assumptions “on the shelf” when someone else is talking.

Succes habits help and get help spent your time on what you can do best If you want to change do it step by step

A tip of an entrepreneur to me was: pay your bills immediately and pay 95%. What do you think about that?

* during an workshop, complicated questions might come forward. Offer a free session to help more personal * make a lottery for a free package

Feel what is good for you and for those around you. Do healthy things for your body do healthy things for your mind do healthy things for your social contacts (family and friends) value what you have. See what’s good and do more of it.

To improver cash flow. * After a training or training-cycle .. offer an implementation ‘traject’ *.paid mastermind as high end product

Great things you all mention. thanks to you all for this input. so is there more to ask? * what is it you hope to get out of this meeting? * What is on your mind (on …subject)? * What would help you? * What, Why, How, When questions

In replay to Gerdy Heek

Wauw Gerdy, …when you are on track…..whoppa!!

What can I do to come with a new business idea: * assist in other business (to have a look) * work together with another business for a while (combine the products) * pick one thing out of your business and make a whole product of that.

Be sure and improve your quality find a unique niche have a good talk (pitch/story/be a speaker)

Ask for help Ask for a listener plan something you enjoy with someone you enjoy

For me technic can take a lot of time. So there are situations in which it helps me to source it out or do it without. Only do what I have to do (what no-one else can do for me. stress and relaxe (keep it in a healthy balance

Always think: Do I need this? (or love it) Is there another way? Is there a cheeper way? How much time or energie does it take? Is there a simpeler way?

Give a free…. something (gift) for my ideal client, examples of the pain or obstacles they face, on the website pictures or drawings

For a blog: – three secrets of harmonious ….. – thee habits of happy ….. – my experience in a metafor/story

– give some extra information like a book thread, YouTube info, podcast to listen. – if I could give my client a solution, Call back to them to ask how it worked for them
