Are the expectations you put on yourself reasonable?

For many, the answer is no.

It can so easy to set the bar way too high, its part of being the type of person who wants to do their best.

You know yourself better than anyone, listen to what you know to be true. Make sure that your expectations are reasonable and realistic otherwise you risk disappointing yourself for not meeting some imaginary target.

Be kind to yourself, always.

If you are struggling to get the sales you need right now, here are some things you can do to help boost sales and visibility. 1. Ask engagement questions such as - what is the #1 problem you are having with X? 2. Follow up with everyone you've spoken to but who hasn't yet committed. Don’t be scared of following up multiple times. Most only do so once or twice and sometimes they just need that extra ‘hi, have you thought about what we discussed?’ to tip them into making a decision one way or the other. 3. Ask your existing customers if there’s anything they need your help with and if they know anyone who would need your help. 4. Go live on your Facebook personal profile (it has the greatest reach) and share something of value, not a pitch. 5. Interact with people in complimentary niches on their content. These people offer a service or product that is complementary to your own but doesn’t compete, lots of potential crossover. 6. Use the algorithm to your advantage by interacting with people on their content, their audience will see it and they will see your content when you post on your profile too. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mikethebizguy/message

We all have plans, or so I always thought when I was growing up. I always had such elaborate plans as a child. Plans that were usually geared towards getting me into space. Sadly, I never went to space. Go figure! As I got older, what I wanted in life changed. Okay so not completely, I still want to go to space. But now I have set my sights on some things that are actually within the realms of possibility. I have a family that depends on me. I have clients that depend on me. I have more responsibility than I really feel comfortable with. I feel like it’s a lot of expectation put upon me, that is until it occurs to me that the only expectations put on me are done so by me. In my discussions with other people I have found that the same is true for most of us. We nearly all have totally unrealistic expectations of ourselves --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mikethebizguy/message
