15 things I wish I'd known before I started an online business
About this episode
When you're going through a challenging moment—and running an online business certainly has its ups and downs—it can be hard to see the lesson until you're on the other side of it. In today's episode, I'm sharing with you 15 of the lessons I've learned in the last few years:
- Why selling is a non-negotiable element to every online business and understanding the difference between cash flow and profit
- Why diving into the 'scary' zone can be so beneficial to your success and the value of learning from your failures
- Not everything is going to be a shiny sparkly squirrel, which means getting comfortable with the boring tasks of running a business
- Your success is based on a measurement of your vision and goals and not anyone else's.
- Why the strategy behind what you sell is more important than how you promote it.
- Why controlling the controllable is key and showing up for long-term success.
- Why each launch doesn't have to be a new offer - the benefit of doubling down on one product
- You are the most important person in your business—self-care is imperative.
- Embracing your fears and doubts as a path to success - repetition breeds confidence.
