Have you been so focused on creating more revenue, that it’s decreasing profit?
As an online business with an expertise-based offer suite, you don’t have a ton of overhead.
In the first couple of years it’s just down to the cost of softwares, your devices, continued education / coaches, and contractors for pop-up support.
Some of those costs are fixed (software) and some are variable (deciding to join a group program that you didn’t bank on earlier in the year).
But ultimately, with a budget that accounts for those pop-up expenses & investments, you’re pretty set fo ..read more

March 15th, 2023 officially marks two years of sharing Big Sip Energy with Downtown Las Vegas at Bungalow Coffee!
ICYMI: Bungalow Coffee is the third wave coffee shop my husband, Ryan, and I opened during the pandemic. (Give us a lil virtual stalk over on the Bungalow Coffee Instagram, or check out a recap of our first year in business here!)
Since opening Bungalow Coffee back in 2021, we have (of course) faced our fair share of common entrepreneurship problems. Though we’ve been successfully growing The Social Bungalow as an online business since 2018, we were new to starting a brick and mo ..read more

If you’ve been an online entrepreneur for more than a few weeks, you’re likely well versed with objections in your sales process. It’s an inevitable part of being a business owner, but can be difficult to manage in the moment. Because we know objections will happen no matter how we plan, it’s important to prepare our reaction and plan to overcome vs avoiding altogether.
First, let’s acknowledge that objections are simply limiting beliefs. Note the difference between a limiting belief and questions. Your ideal client may need clarification on a particular piece of your offer or need to double c ..read more

Let’s rethink the paper-chase real quick.
If you’re looking to scale past those $5k-10k months, let me tell you a little secret – client satisfaction and retention will go a long way. In these parts, we don’t chase leads. We have strategic funnels that capture leads and convert them to raving clients. Clients who, after experiencing your epic service and/or transformation, will do all the marketing for you in way of referrals.
My clients’ businesses are built on several pillars including funnels and evergreen courses. However, I want to focus on two ..read more

While I may not know you personally, believe it or not, I already know a few things about you. You’ve been in business for a little while now, you’ve figured out how to make 4 figures a month, and you’re ready to go to the next level (hellllooo big bucks!)
But, something is going on behind the scenes that you just can’t seem to diagnose. You’re working tons of hours, serving the heck out of your clients, but you don’t quite feel like the CEO. Or maybe you do, it’s because it stands for Currently Extremely Overwhelmed..
I hear you friend, and I’m here to he ..read more

You know me. The girl with multiple beverages every morning. The one who eats pretty much the same thing for lunch daily and also has her client meetings at the same time weekly. I’ve always been all about routines, I know that without structure, something is bound to drop.
First things first, personal boundaries. I pencil in my workouts for the week on the weekend prior, I know what beverages I start my day with every day (green smoothie, black coffee, and water), I have apple cider vinegar at dinner time, and I’m off the phone by 7 pm. Truly what I was dreaming about in ..read more

I see you, CEO. You’re wearing all the hats, juggling all the projects, following through on all the big-picture goals. And let’s be honest, your days are becoming more and more sporadic and exhausting as a result.
What if I told you that there is another way? A way where:
>Your days are filled with peace of mind
>You generate dream-status profit without sacrificing your sanity
>Your business is growing AND you have the freedom to live your life
*Sips coffee and says “I’m listening.”*
I’ve been able to grow my revenue by 3,100% in the last 365 days while travelin ..read more

When Annalyse, Bungalow Executive Assistant, shared a sneak peek of my media kit on IG Stories last week, so many peeps ran to the DM’s to ask more. I heard your questions loud and clear, so let’s explore more of the awesome tool that has helped us land some of the biggest opportunities.
What is a Media Kit
A media kit is a powerful tool for sharing your brand with potential collaboration partners, journalists, and organizations you’re pitching to. Typically, between 2-5 pages, a stellar media kit hits a few key points that highlight the best of your business. This beautifully ..read more

You loved our chat yesterday on Instagram about how I put in the work to be a great client to my own coach, so I’m breaking it down even deeper so you can take these methods into your next session as a client.
I have been in your shoes; you click the “Book Now” button on your coach’s sales call calendar and feel butterflies in your stomach. You’re so excited to have the support but feel a little nervous about how much money you’re about to invest (that’s a lot of zero’s on the end of their coaching fee)! You ask yourself the usual questions: Will this be worth it? Will this coa ..read more
