I’m new to Clubhouse (yes, I’m a lil late or whatever! But I’m here now! lol!) and this past Friday I tuned in to The Social Media Show. Most Friday’s they do “Talk With Jude” feauturing Judy Jernudd, a speaker and leadership coach.
This particular episode I’m so happy I caught because they were discussing: The Top 5 Proven Principles You Need To “Move Your Needle” in 2022.
Whether your business is flourishing or if you need a little help chugging along I think these 5 Principles are beneficial to every business owner. It helped me so I want to share my take aways in hopes that it helps you too!
Clarify
Get super clear on what it is that you do. Of course you should be clear on your “I help ____ do ____.” statement, but even better to have a clear business plan that breaks down how you do what you do. Actually sit down and take the time to come up with who you serve, how you serve them, get concrete on your offer(s), and execute that plan.
Delegation
As an entrepreneur we try to do it all ourselves. Some times it’s because we don’t have the resources, but often time it’s a fear of releasing control. You fear the help you bring on won’t be able to do the tasks you assign as good as you. However, it’s better to have it done, even if it’s at 80%, and you focus on something else in the business, than you doing everything and getting burned out. (check out last week’s blog!)
Accountability
Once you are clear on your business and delegate less important tasks to trustworthy help, you need to hold yourself accountable for the tasks you are responsible for. As entrepreneurs it’s so easy put something off because you set your own hours and work when you want, but make sure you’re taking care of what’s important and not being distracted by things that don’t matter and won’t help you in the long run.
Commitment
On the show they discussed the difference between a goal and a promise & I’m going to dive deeper into that next week. Regardless of what you call it, in order to achieve a goal, stick to a promise, accomplish a dream, you have to commit to focusing on what is beneficial to getting you there. Commit to bettering yourself personally and that will spill over into your business and vice versa.
Processes
It is super important that you have systems and processes in place to assist you in duplicating the results you give to others, helping you delegate with ease and allowing you to help more people in less time. For example, if you keep track of the steps you take to get your customers results, you can follow that same formula to get the next client results, and the next and the next! The same goes for an assistant and when you are ready to scale your business.
