The Expanding Entrepreneur
An intimate 7-week group mentorship circle for ambitious, mission-driven, female entrepreneurs
Begins Fall of 2020
This program is designed to give you the knowledge, training, tools, and support you need to expand your business beyond 6 figures—without the headaches and stress of figuring everything out on your own.
You probably went into business because you’re passionate about bringing your unique offerings and talents into the world—not because you always dreamed of managing a business or being an IT specialist.
Time and again, I’ve watched as gifted, motivated entrepreneurs try to expand their business without having a solid foundation to expand from. And sadly, they often times end up resenting their business in the process and wonder if they’ll ever get back to enjoying the parts they love again.
Over the course of our 7 weeks together, you’ll learn the nuts and bolts of how to prepare your business for its next evolution, in a supportive community of like-hearted women.
No secret formula is going to magically accelerate your business unless you have a few key elements under your belt—and that’s exactly what this program will give you. You’ll overcome your biggest blocks to running a successful business through:
It Takes a Village
We are a team of experienced business owners who have joined forces to support you on your journey. We provide everything you need for successful business expansion; Business Coaching, Marketing Strategy, Brand Strategy, Social Media Marketing, Program Development, How to Avoid Burnout, How to Build Confidence, Scalable Systems & Tools, and Automated Marketing Funnels plus all you’ll have accountability, motivation, and support so you can keep you going no matter what challenges arise.
Create a Solid Plan
A solid expansion plan has two critical components: Strategic Planning and Tactical Execution (this includes your Marketing Strategies and Tactics). You’ll define your vision, create a plan to get there, and know how to actually follow through so you can strategically investing in your future.
We'll make sure your plan covers all 5 phases of the client lifecycle: Attract, Convert, Fulfill, Delight and Refer, all of which are necessary for a successful expansion.
Expand Your Offering
A scalable business requires scalable offers. I'll help you create service and program offerings that allow you to achieve your revenue goal in a shorter period of time.
Expand Your Brand
As your business expands, so does your brand. Our Brand Strategist will ensure your brand strategy is in alignment with your new vision.
Scalable Systems & Tools
Time to review your systems, tools and processes to make sure you have the right operational infrastructure in place to expand from. Does simply finding the time to research what you need seem overwhelming? I’ll teach you what systems you have and the tools you need plus how to use them so you can maximize efficiency and leverage them to support your expanding business.
Automated Marketing Funnels
These days automated funnels are required for an expanding business. Once you have effective systems & tools in place, we will review the funnels you have and make sure they are optimized to accomplish the goals you have for business or if you don't have one, we will build a lead generation funnel.
Empowered Business Management
Managing your finances is no longer optional when you expand. We'll make sure you have a budget, understand your cashflow, implement a sales pipeline, track profit & loss statements, and have tools in place to support your financial foundation.
Preparing for Your Team
Once you expand beyond Solopreneur, your success depends on the support of a team. Whether you are ready to hire your first Virtual Assistant or building out a bigger team, your business will need to support them.
First, you'll learn how to identify what support you need and how to locate people who share you vision plus how to onboard them. At the end of this module, you will know how to gently but firmly hold them accountable, so you don't have to micromanage but instead focus your time and energy where you need to - on generating leads, sales and customer satisfaction.
We'll also ensure you are prepared for your next expansion - adding additional team members.
A Whole-Business & Realistic Approach
As a wife, mom, and successful business owner, I know that prioritizing self-care can be tricky. When you work for yourself, it can seem like every hour you’re not focused on your business is money lost. I’ll help you work with your individual tendencies and patterns to create a personalized approach for protecting your greatest asset—you!—so you can enjoy your work and your life.
If you’re ready to stop drowning in overwhelm and start feeling like the confident, empowered business owner you know you can be, then I hope you’ll join our upcoming circle. You can do this!
