About this episode
So many of us enter the VA space not knowing the importance of focusing on the fundamentals of running a business - the business basics that are imperative to get right in order to create a healthy, profitable business.
We’re unaware of just how important these fundamentals are because more often than not we’ve come from corporate roles where it’s been someone else’s responsibility to worry about them.
If you’re struggling to find clients and if you’re not reaching your financial targets it’s time to STOP getting distracted by the latest shiny new thing that’s going to (supposedly) save the day, and instead get back to basics.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- The 7 business fundamentals that you must focus on to succeed.
- Why shiny object syndrome happens to the best of us and how to avoid it.
- How to know whether something new is a good opportunity or one that will just waste your time, energy and money.
- Why 'more' isn't always better and just holds you back from achieving your goals in business.
