Introducing:
3-STEP BLUEPRINT TO ACHIEVE TRUE FREEDOM IN BUSINESS
My name is Kristin Molenaar and I'm the founder of the virtual agency Yes boss VA.
In this post, I will share with you my 3-Step Blueprint to eradicate entrepreneurial stress and achieve true freedom in business.
Step 1- Eliminate all non-essentials- look at your business and figure out what's essential and what's not. To do this, you should look at these 2 things:
a. Look at your marketing efforts- Ask yourself these questions:
Do your marketing efforts align with how you naturally show up?
Is your heart aligned with your marketing efforts?
What is the data saying?
If you don't have the data to support it, your heart is not in it, then you shouldn't be doing it.
b. Look at you monetization efforts- Again, examine your business:
How are you monetizing your business?
What is your Heart saying about it?
What is the data about it?
Step 2 - Automate and Delegate only that which is essential
Automating or delegating things that are not essential are a waste of money and time.
These two things go together, automation and delegation. If, for example, your zone of genius is not in project management, or you're not much of a finisher, you probably need to delegate the automation.
There is a temptation for people to just delegate tasks. Before doing so, you need to figure out if there are opportunities to automate. That's the way to get the most out of delegation.
Step 3- Generate effort, free income - This can look different for different types of businesses.
We like to focus on this with our clients. Here's how this works:
We are working with a client who does speaker coaching. She helps people book stages. She is a coach and a consultant as well.
She is teaching her clients how to do it for themselves instead of doing it for them.
However, among her clients, some are willing to pay her to implement her strategies for them.
That's where Yesboss comes in under her umbrella. She sells that done for you service to her clients for say, $1000 and we execute it for her for say, $750.
It enables her to give more to her clients without putting any more work on her plate. It's a win-win situation across the board.
We make money. We also helped our clients make more money. The clients get what they are looking for. That's our final step.
It's like the cherry on top of just making a well-rounded team. Everyone is responsible for generating profit and growth of our business.
As an entrepreneur, you can bring all of that. You don't necessarily need Yesboss.
But if you want to shortcut the process, you can come to us. We'll help you shortcut it.
So, if you're a solopreneur, you're feeling burnt out, and you know that you need help, you can go to Yesboss VA. com.
This is something that every single business owner can do when they're thinking about building something.
If you also want to take advantage of our 3- step process and don't want to hire us, you can go to Yesboss va.com/worklessmakemore.
The first thing that you'll see there is step number one- how to eliminate non-essentials.
It's also applying the 80:20 principle. How to find that 20% in your business that's yielding 80% results. You can also check us out on Instagram.
As a final word, don't fall into the pit that you've got to do all the things. That you have to follow everybody's formula. Build something that resonates with your heart.
