"Remember that there is always going to be another solution"












































In this episode, Heather discusses the power of recommendations and how they influence our choices in using certain tools or products. She uses the example of CRM systems recommended by two different business training groups she is a part of. Heather emphasizes that while recommendations are valuable, it's important to consider if there might be better options available. She advises listeners to focus on their specific needs and the features they require in a tool, and to seek recommendations from others in similar situations. Ultimately, the tool itself doesn't matter as much as the knowledge and understanding of how to use it effectively.
 
Takeaways

Recommendations from trusted sources can heavily influence our choices in using certain tools or products.
It's important to consider if there might be better options available, even if a trusted source recommends a particular tool.
Focus on your specific needs and the features you require in a tool, and seek recommendations from others in similar situations.

The first case study is about a chiropractor, where the optimization involved creating a compelling offer, improving the landing page, and using engaging video ads.

About the Guest





















Matt Raad has used a very unconventional method to create financial freedom in his life, starting from zero and building a high cashflow portfolio of semi-passive online assets.
Both he and his wife Liz Raad are website investors, which means they use digital assets to generate cashflow and wealth. They were one of the first in the world to realise that they could buy websites, renovate them like real estate, and then sell or keep them for cashflow
These days they love teaching online beginners and especially burnt-out corporates how to reach 6 & 7 figure website portfolios using a similar strategy to buying & renovating traditional real estate.

Takeaways

Stress is often the killer of productivity and outcomes in business. Focus on what you can control and trust in your ability to step up and do what is required.
Time management is crucial for productivity. Focus on creating a big picture plan and chunking tasks to complete them in the least amount of time necessary.
To create a successful business and lifestyle, challenge the status quo and find ways to have both without sacrificing your well-being.
Financial coaching is essential for business owners to optimize their financial operating system, maximize profit, and turn business profit into personal wealth.
Take imperfect action and fail forward to make progress. Don't wait for perfection, as it hinders growth and success.

"Focus on how you serve your clients"












































We've all heard the phrase, "To earn more money, find a way to serve more people and provide more value." 
In this episode, Heather explores how shifting your focus from what you sell to how you serve can create not only financial success but also meaningful connections with your clients.
Here are five strategies that will not only enhance the value you provide, but also enable you to charge more:
1️⃣ Give hope to your clients
Motivate and inspire them, acknowledge their struggles and remind them of how what they do makes a difference
2️⃣ Send surprises
Send letters in the post,  great articles via email, and even little random thank you gifts
3️⃣ Get to know your clients (and actually care)
Learn who their kids are. Find out their weaknesses and strengths when it comes to what you offer.  Then support their weaknesses with additional help and acknowledge their strengths.
4️⃣ Volunteer your wisdom
There is a time and a place to charge for your knowledge, and when a current customer needs your help offer it. Jump in without being asked.  Look for ways to make their life easier.
5️⃣ Introduce your network to each other
When you know two clients who could help each other in business or personally make an intro. Connect people. And don't expect anything in return.

"If you try to and market one thing...one way...."












































Heather has a monthly Zoom meet up with 2 fellow agency owners. They discuss various topics related to their businesses from client management, to leadership and marketing strategies.
In their last session they discussed business growth and Heather volunteered what she was doing with her ads to get such great results.
Want to know?  Tune in and get the plan.
Here’s a sneak peak of what she says:

I have short Reels that summarise each podcast episode.  
I make the more popular ones into ads using a combo of mindset and business advice. These are awareness ads. They warm people up to me and my style.
I build audiences of people who are watching these videos.  They are segmented into business advice and mindset advice.
I then promote 2 free resources to them to build my email list.  I am also testing this with cold targeting too.
I have a 30 min video training positioned as an on demand masterclass that shares the 6 things a website needs to get more customers.
I also give away a checklist of how to patch the leaky buckets on your website.
The checklist brings in $3 leads and the masterclass brings in $9 leads.
Had I not tested the 2 against each other I would not have known what might work better.
However, just because one is getting cheaper leads does not mean to turn off the more expensive one.  Ultimately you want customers and not just leads, so you need to find out which one brings in customers.
For us, it is too early to tell. And we are even going to test another freebie. After a couple of months we will know which one gets us the cheapest leads AND brings in customers.

Always be testing! And never assume what will work.
Episode at a glance….
[00:01:48] Finding supportive connections in business.
[00:06:37] Warming people up through ads.
[00:09:07] Lead magnet effectiveness.
[00:11:54]  How testing helped a chiropractor go from no leads to 15 in 2 weeks.

Seek input from your team for fresh perspectives.
Automate decisions when possible, such as using meal delivery services or adopting capsule wardrobes.
Prioritize quality sleep to support cognitive function.
Embrace your decisions and avoid second-guessing.
Use a pros-cons list when you're stuck on a decision.

We're introducing something new! A website audit tear down. 
Have you ever heard of Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO)?  It will help you get your online marketing working smarter with the assets you already have.
And after all that is what we are all about on this show!  Working smarter. 
In this audit we review Smart Energy, a company specialising in sustainability reports for building and planning permits.
Here are some website improvement ideas:

Explore why the new site is not working by looking at what worked in the old site.  You can use the "Way Back Machine" to see older versions of a website and replicate what worked.
Showcase their Unique Selling Proposition (USP) through thoughtful design elements.
Redesign service pages as landing pages to increase engagement and conversions.
Test landing pages and ad messaging using Google Search ads for top services.
Utilize the blog by conducting interviews with thought leaders in the industry to attract ideal clients.
Create an Info Portal with easily accessible content, including industry updates, case studies, and explanations of energy-efficient building practices.
Highlight your expertise with case studies, repurposing them in emails, LinkedIn posts/ads, and outreach efforts.
Streamline the process with a "get a quote" form that allows file uploads.
Add a "start here" page to guide new visitors through your offerings.
Incorporate a booking option for those interested in a call to build trust and answer questions.

These recommendations will help generate traffic and optimise user experience on your website. 
Here’s a glance at this episode…
00:00:00 Improve website with design elements.
00:04:46 Use landing pages for conversions.

"What does owning your business mean to you?"












































What does owning your business mean to you?
Does it mean you....

Wake up on edge and jump into emails before taking a moment to breathe or plan your day?
You work on the weekends without feeling like you can say no?
You have dreams about projects you are working on or wake up stressed out because you are not sure how you can deliver what you promised?
You say "yes" to things you know you shouldn't because you need that extra amount for cashflow?
You get angry at your team because they have not done what you wanted (they are meant to read your mind right?)
You neglect your family and friends because you overcommitted to clients?
You keep hoping to reach that revenue goal, but don't ever seem to make it?
You have started to doubt if you are any good?

Or does it mean...

You take the role as a leader and look for ways to motivate your team and help them work smarter?
You set up reports, and learn how to read them, and let the numbers guide you on what to do?
You take a week or 2 or more off when you want? (bonus if travel is involved)
You block out non negotiable “me time” for working out, paying pool (like I do), or whatever else you want to fill your time with?
You know what you want in life and how to build a business that helps you have that?
You know strategy is important, you invest in it, you action it and you are on track for growth again this year?
You know what you do is incredibly valuable and you get paid for it without needing to discount or fight for the sale.
You have days filled with fun and joy...because you are doing what you love?

 
I'll ask you again - "what does owning your business mean to you"?
If you are not happy with your answer, or feel stuck, or have somehow lost some of that hope you had when you started you are invited to our live event!

"It does not necessarily mean it's the best one for you!"













































A big part of growing your business is getting the right systems in place right?  
I thought I would share a question I got the other day:
"What's the best CRM or email marketing tool to use so I can start using digital marketing more proactively?"
There are loads of tools out there.  Do any of these sound familiar?
Hubspot, Ontraport, Mailchimp, Active Campaign, Keap, Klaviyo, Kartra, ConvertKit, Constant Contact, MailerLite, Omnisend, Zoho...
I have seen trends in popularity come and go depending on what guru is promoting what, or what affiliate partner is doing a push.  And ultimately it does not matter too much what tool you use.
Instead focus on what you need your CRM to do.
Here are some questions to consider when choosing a CRM for your business::

Do you sell products and need to segment based on what people buy? Or cart abandonment?
Do you want automation rules and triggers - such as if someone clicks on an email link (or does not), then you send them a follow up email?
Do you want pretty designed email templates?
Do you want to use custom merge fields?
Do you need SMS automation?

If you are not sure what you might need, work with a strategist or automation experts to map out what is possible. Then you can find the solution that fits for you instead of the other way around - where you buy the tool and either never need half the features or are frustrated because it will never grow and scale into what you need.
Here’s a glance at this episode…
00:03:29 Choose the right CRM for you.
00:08:44 Start with what you need.

"I was stressing, I already been in Australia 6 months...."












































Do you ever find it difficult to stay present with the people around you? Especially during the times when you are overwhelmed?
I remember when I first moved to Australia from the States. I was beyond stressed waiting for my visa to come through and finding it difficult to focus…until someone shared an incredible model for staying present.

Picture a 4 leaf clover flattened out on a table with a leaf at the top, bottom, left and right
Symbolically, most people focus on one of the leaves during a time of overwhelm.  To be present we want to aim to be in the middle where all 4 leaves cross.  
The leaf on the left is worrying about things in the past
The leaf on the top is worrying what will I say next
The leaf on the button is worrying what they think about you 
The leaf on the right is worrying about the future

The aim is to stay centred in the middle of the leaves where your thoughts don’t stray to anything but the current moment.
I hope it helps you as much as it has for me.

"I started focusing on all the things I had not done"












































Do you collect ideas like they are going out of fashion?
And then beat yourself up because you don’t feel like you are accomplishing much?
If yes, this episode is for you!
During a recent clean up of files and workbooks, I was feeling the same. 
I remembered how I teach about being consistent in your marketing, as that breeds success. So I started thinking this naturally must apply to growing a business too - being consistent.
Instead of compiling loads of scattered ideas, I am now focussing on diving deeper into one area of our business to develop a core, solid offering that we can become known for.
By simplifying and consistently focusing on one thing, it allows you to build systems and have clarity about what to work on next… and it allows you to stop feeling like you have too many unfinished projects.
Here’s a glance at this episode…
[00:02:01] Good intention does not mean action.
[00:04:55] Consistency in business.
[00:06:43] Specializing for better results.
[00:13:29] What we are specializing in.

"There were no results directly tied for what they were working on"












































I was having a chat with a client the other day who was frustrated with one of their VAs.
He said... “She is not fixing my website the way I want, it does not look right,  I am not getting good written content either, so many mistakes are being made.  The quality is not being looked after or checked.  I am not getting any advice or recommendations for what to do next.”
I said... What is your VA trained to do?  Is she a website developer?  A website designer? A copywriter?  A strategist? Because normally that is 2-3 jobs and if you can find someone that does it all, then you have yourself a unicorn.
In that moment it was like the penny dropped - he was expecting inexpensive labour to be everything instead of understanding the individual role of his VA and then developing systems for her and playing to her strengths.
In this episode learn why you need a minimum of these roles to build a strong online presence:

Strategist
Designer
Copywriter
Developer
Project Manager/Coordinator
Customer Service/Engagement

Tune in for valuable tips on building a successful team so the work they do for you delivers results.

"I suddenly was sitting there going OH NO"












































Have you ever been guilty of being slack in your business on the things you help do for others?
Heather realized this recently when considering signing up for a mastermind group.  She was asked questions that she could easily answer for some of her clients, but when it came to her own business, she realized she needed to pay more attention to her numbers.
After all, what you focus on grows right?
Here’s the 3 dashboards she uses to keep track on what is happening in her business:
1) Marketing - where we check things like where our traffic is coming from, the conversions we get and their CPA
2) Sales - where we stay up to date with our sales pipeline with our sales team and can easily see and how many sales we got each month
3) Expenses - where we can see if it is time to cancel an ongoing subscription or revisit how long it is taking the team to work on certain projects 
Think for a moment about what you want to grow.  You might need to invest time and attention to those things.
 
Here’s a glance at this episode…
[00:02:28] Why financial intelligence is important.
[00:03:53] What marketing dashboards we use.

By implementing a good system for managing my calendar and prioritizing my time, I was able to turn things around. Today, I manage a team of 10 for my business, fit in exercise at least 4 times a week, have speaking engagements, teach, host this podcast, run events, spend time with my friends and family… and am still able to travel for at least six weeks every year.
How?  I developed a system called At Ease.
Here are 5 ways to get control over your to-do list instead of letting it control you:

Put all of your life and work to-dos on paper - either a journal or a word doc.  You can do this weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly, or all of the above.
Filter it by grouping items into "yes, no, maybe" piles.  Which things do you want to commit to? Which things do you realise you actually don’t want? And which things could you do later?
Set a morning routine, and stick to it so you start each day on your terms.
Put your “yes” and “maybe” items into your calendar.  Make sure some of your “yeses” are personal items, like the gym.  You can colour code them too so you can visually see if you have too many or too little of a certain type of task.  If you need to, you can always move your maybe items around as they are not as important.
Watch your boundaries - remember to say “no” more often!  

I use this system to help me fit in everything I want to and enjoy the little life moments I would have missed before.  I hope it helps you too.

"You don't have a grasp on systems, so you're busy being with stuff that shouldn't be worked on in your business anymore at this level of growth that you are in your business."





































I recently started the "Scale Up Series" masterclasses with a company I work with to help them increase their upsell opportunities to their clients.  In the first webinar we spoke about the systems and tools to help businesses not waste time and money in their operations.  
It got me thinking about how busyness can affect business owners and the importance of having proper systems in place to streamline processes and ensure that time is spent on the right tasks. 
So I have a question - “Are you just busy for the sake of being busy or are you focusing on the right things?”
Remember to be mindful of your priorities and take action towards achieving our goals in a mindful way, rather than getting too caught up in being busy for the sake of it.  
Sometimes putting a good system in place is not as hard as you think.  
Here’s a glance at this episode…
[00:01:12] Being busy for busy sake.
[00:04:03] Importance of project management tools.
[00:07:29] How quickly I set up a system when there was chaos inside a team.
[00:10:56] The systems and tools I use in my business.
[00:17:39] An app I love to get more done.
