How To Create a Course In One Day

How To Create a Course In One Day ✨
At the end of March I created and launched a brand new course in less than 26 hours. This wasn’t a fluffy course either... it is a nitty gritty tech course!
Oh and I stopped working at 5 PM, had a full night of sleep, and didn't start work any earlier than normal.
In that time I outlined the course, recorded the videos, built it out in my membership site, created the sales page and checkout page, set up the enrollment and onboarding tech, sent out an email to my list, added it to my website, and rolled it out an affiliate program.
While launching a course in a day isn't always necessary, I did a few things differently on purpose to get this live and in the world as quickly as possible!

How to Show Up Consistently in Your Business✨
I used to have a fear of commitment because I was afraid I would not be able to show up for my business.
It has been a journey for me to make the mindset shift and now I confidently show up for my business consistently!
I started to plug in all of my commitments to my google calendar, this helped me feel a responsibility to get things done!
I released the pressure I was putting on myself, learned to let go of perfectionism, started to take action, and reminded myself of my deeper reason why I wanted to show up!

How to Become a Confident Business Owner

How to Become a Confident Business Owner ✨
Do you struggle to make decisions in your business?
When I was an early entrepreneur, I would hire coach after coach, I took so many courses, I was asking peers in Facebook groups, asking my friends, and eventually, I was doing what everyone else told me to.
I spent days, weeks, and months trying to make a decision in my business.
I had a breaking point in my business where I realized I need to stop asking other people. I had to sit with my thoughts and make my own decisions.
This wasn’t easy and it was a process to get to where I am today. I have learned to give myself the time to work through my decisions.
That’s Why I am Sharing How to Become a Confident Business Owner!

How to Stop Overthinking as a Business Owner

How to Stop Overthinking as a Business Owner ✨
So many things can come from overthinking, imposter syndrome, frustration, staying stagnant... if you are overthinking you might be self-sabotaging.
For a long time, I let my perfectionist tendencies hold me back but over time, I learned to reframe my thoughts.
I started to view everything I did in my business as an experiment. This relieved the pressure to make things “perfect” the first time.
One experiment I am doing right now in my business is recording my podcast live on my Facebook Page. While this was exciting and terrifying all at the same time, I was able to overcome my fears of the worst-case scenario and reframe my thoughts to knowing that it would work out!
I've learned to take fast, inspired action to validate and learn what works for me and my business.
That’s Why I am Sharing How to Stop Overthinking as a Business Owner!

A lot can change in a year and I think we can agree that 2020 has had a lot of surprises! Chances are you have changed and evolved since the beginning of the year.
A Mid Year Review is an opportunity to reflect on how you are doing with hitting your goals and objectives you set out at the beginning of the year.

5 Mistakes Business Owners Make When Hiring

5 Mistakes Business Owners Make When Hiring💥
Hiring doesn't have to leave you feeling discouraged!
I have been through all the high and lows of hiring and learned from all of those experiences along the way! Because of this, I have developed a strategy for hiring so you can build the team of your dreams with ease.
So many online business owners started their business because they love what they do, love to help people, but aren't necessarily experts in running a business.
I often hear from many online business owners that they are scared to hire because they've had a bad hiring experience. They often feel that they are bad at hiring, don't know how to find the right person, or maybe they don't need help after all.
I have a formal background in hiring and team-building thanks to my Master’s Degree in Organizational and Human Resource Development and 4 years of corporate Human Resources and Recruiting experience but I have made many hiring mistakes in a corporate setting and even in my own business.
That is why I am sharing 5 Mistakes Online Business Owners Make When Hiring!

Are you scared to hire?

Are you scared to hire? ✨
I love hiring.
I have a formal background in hiring and team-building thanks to my Master's Degree in Organizational and Human Resource Development and 4 years of corporate Human Resources and Recruiting experience.
I've been hiring contractors for my own business since 2016, helped my clients hire new contractors and employees for their online business.
I've supported my entrepreneur friends through figuring out who they need to hire, how to find the best candidates, how to onboard their team members, and how to be better managers and leaders.
I worked as the Chief Operating Officer for my friend Mariah Coz and helped her build out her team of full-time employees and now I coach my community and clients through hiring as well.
What I've discovered is that it doesn't matter how successful your online business is... a lot of business owners still have the same fears and doubts when it comes to hiring.
I did a guest training in Mariah Coz's Accelerator program recently and multiple successful course creators all used the same phrase when it came to hiring..."I am scared."
While the source of their fear was different for each individual, they all felt fear around hiring.
That's why I'm sharing how you can overcome your fear of hiring so you can overcome your fears around hiring in this episode of The Productive Life podcast!

How to Write a 90 Day Business Plan
The Productive Life with Megan Minns
06/30/20 • 25 min
How to Write a 90 Day Business Plan ✅
Life and business plans can change a lot in a short amount of time. That is why I always suggest planning in 90-day increments.
I often see people over plan for the next 12 months and it can be hard to stick to a plan for that long when things change so often.
When we try to plan beyond 90 days we end up doing more work than we need to. You can’t accurately know exactly where you will be 90 days from now because you will learn so much.
That’s Why I am Sharing How to Write a 90 Day Business Plan!
