Lead Strategy

🍁 Happy Thanksgiving from our team to yours! 🦃

As we gather to celebrate this season of gratitude, we at Lead Strategy want to take a moment to express our thanks.

To our incredible clients: Thank you for choosing us, for believing in our vision, and for allowing us to be a part of your journey. We're honored to work alongside such inspiring individuals and companies. 🚀

This Thanksgiving, we celebrate the spirit of collaboration, the bonds we've strengthened, and the milestones we've achieved together. Here's to continued success, growth, and shared dreams. We look forward to what the future holds with excitement and hope. 🖤

If someone tells your business will grow alone with minimum work using this or that technique, RUN!

It would be nice if we could just lay down on the beach while the business makes money without you, but most of the time that isn’t the reality.

Without creating a strategy and implementing it your business won’t grow. You need to work hard and know your business like the back of your hand.

Most people want a 7-Figure income - the top queries in Google with the keyword show it.

However, earning between $1 Million and $10 Million a year is a challenge.

You’ll hardly get there researching “7 Figure jobs near me.”

If you own a business, you already have an advantage. Now you need to understand your maximum revenue capacity and how much increase it must have to achieve a gross profit of $84,000/mo.

If you are currently making $30,000/mo on maximum capacity, you need to grow around 3x. Seems a lot, but it is possible. We’ve seen it happening to our clients multiple times.

🚨38% of small businesses fail in their first 3 years🚨

Here's what I've learned to beat the statistic:

1️⃣ In the beginning, you can afford to work harder and not smarter.

2️⃣ Protect cash like your life depends on it. Learning to operate without debt/equity makes those tools more powerful later on.

3️⃣ Simplify your marketing message and stick to one channel. I'd recommend Story Brand by Donald Miller.

4️⃣ Tie your activities to outcomes. Don't get lost in picking your brand's color palette. Only do work that progresses your vision and let the rest go.

5️⃣ Don't underestimate what you can outsource to Fiverr. Everyone has a side hustle these days and there are some seriously talented people willing to help you where you're lacking.

Hope that helps someone.

Valid reasons you CAN'T scale your business:

Yeah. There is none. The only thing in your way is yourself.

With the right strategy, operation, and people, ANY business has the potential to get to 7-figure.

Client satisfaction is essential for any company to succeed - even more so for service-based businesses.

Receiving harsh criticism from a customer might be painful. It can feel like a failure and even take an entrepreneur into a phase of a scarcity mindset. However, it can be a valuable source of learning when approached well.

There are a few steps you can take to leverage client feedback.

1- Have systems in place to receive feedback
You don't want to learn your biggest client is unhappy when it's too late and they have already decided to cancel their contract. Most of the time, people will show signs of dissatisfaction early on. Have weekly or bi-weekly check-ins with your clients and encourage them to be honest and forward.

2- Be open to criticism
Sometimes, what we need to hear might be different than what we want to hear. Don't be defensive if a client complains, try to understand their point of view. Do you think they're wrong? Then reflect on your communication and what you could've said that got them confused.

3- Be open to change
If you are receiving the same negative feedback over and over, it might be time to make changes to your offer. It might be something small, like a change on your sales pitch to be more aligned with what you currently have. Or even something big, like restructuring your whole program.

So don't let criticism hit you negatively. Use it to your advantage and never stop improving your services.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how well do you think you handle customer criticism? Let us know in the comments 😜

Do you know how to lose like a leader?

Good leaders know how to learn from their losses. Losing doesn't frighten them. Every loss is a lesson that will become a better win.

A great leader knows how to balance their time to leverage their wins and reflect on their mistakes.

Reflect and learn from your process.

What was the biggest business lesson you've learned from a loss?

Do you want to scale?

To get to the next level, you have to visualize your future self in a place that you never dreamed or expected. Punch fear in the face and overcome known limits.

To get to the next level in any endeavor, you can’t use the same strategies and methods that got you to where you are now.

To get to the next level, you have to be able to accept change and let go of things that don’t serve you and your vision.

Are you ready to change? 📈
