The CEO Clubhouse

We're bringing ELISA on today's episode of The CEO Clubhouse! Elisa runs AMP Physical Therapy & Performance in North Carolina.

Elisa tells us her story of taking her business from a side-gig, quitting her full-time physical therapy job, and going all-in on her own clinic.

She walks us through how this new business of hers was occupying all of her days, while trying to raise two small kids.

The peak of the story leads her to PDBM, where in the last 4 months, she's had some INCREDIBLE results that blow away her last year's stats, all while working LESS hours in her business.

She's got an amazing story, and we're so excited to share it with you.

You didn't create your business to create yourself a job. Yet, somehow you got caught in the miseries that come with owning a business.

The long days and late nights, working every role in your business, feeling like you're not making enough money for the time you're putting in ... it's exhausting, and that can get super frustrating.

Being a business owner means you get the freedom and flexibility to build your business to be a self-serving entity. Your business should provide you the financial, time, and mental freedom to do the things you want to do, in the ways you want to do them.

The first step to getting that type of freedom is understanding what your Perfect Day needs to look like, and building backwards from there.

In this episode, we'll walk you through exactly how to do that, and all of the considerations that need to come along with it.

As business owners, we have thousands of great ideas daily that we'd love to implement into our business. Time and time again, though, none of them ever get executed on. Our to-do list grows and grows, and before we know it, we're paralyzed by inaction.

In today's episode, we're going to walk through how perfection is actually the enemy, and it's preventing you from making steps forward in your business.

If you want to grow, you have to start. At the end of this episode, you'll have a tactical plan to go out and implement the first steps to get started on that project you've been putting off within 3-5 minutes.

The first 7 days of your lead's interaction with your small business is the most crucial. This is the highest peak of their attention, and attention is what your business is competing for.

The problem small business owners have is that they struggle to build an efficient system that can capitalize on initial interest, but also grow that interest to turn the prospects into committed buyers. They essentially cast a fishing net that has holes in it, only to wonder why there are no fish when they reel it in.

In this episode, we talk about 3 big ideas to help you understand the importance of the first 7 days of your prospect's attention, and map out a 7-day process to make every step the most impactful.

What if you could build a business that could have you at home to be present with your family?

What if you could get rid of the 50-60 hour work weeks, and build a business that supports your family?

Jannalee is the owner of Jannalee Physiotherapy. She's a rockstar Perfect Day Business Mentorship client who did just that.

Through mentorship, Jannalee built a business that not only tripled her revenue, hired a team of full-time staff, and removed herself from the day-to-day. Most importantly, through mentorship, not only does her business now support her family, but she built a business that allows her to be at home, present, with her two small girls.

This was the most important component of her "Perfect Day" and it's one she lives every single day now.

Listen in to hear about Jannalee's remarkable journey through PDBM mentorship, and how it changed her business and her life.

It's another rockstar Perfect Day Business Mentorship client success story!

Rebecca was a teacher who went on maternity leave, and never returned. Instead, she started her own geography tutoring business!

Rebecca recounts her story as a new mother who took a chance and left her stable career to build a business. She shares how mentorship helped change the trajectory of her business to lead to 2X'ing her revenue in only three months!

In the challenging journey of small business ownership, common pitfalls like not delegating enough, poor time management, underpricing services, unclear marketing, and neglecting financial management often keep hardworking entrepreneurs overworked and underpaid. 

These fundamental mistakes not only drain resources but also hinder the growth and sustainability of the business. 

Here’s how to identify and rectify these five key areas, setting your path straight towards a more prosperous and balanced entrepreneurial future.

Being an entrepeneur means you're going to make decisions along the way that are either going to cost you time, money, or mental space. Sometimes we hang on to these bad decisions for far too long. This is a tactical episode to help you get past some of the decisions you might have made, and turn it around!

You started your business because you love what you do, but also because you wanted to enjoy the fruits of your labour.

But more times than none, business owners are left thinking about feeding themselves last, after they've paid the bills, taxes, their staff - everything and everyone but themselves.

In turn, they're investing a ton of time, energy, effort, and attention back INTO the business, and not bringing anything home to offset that balance.

Entrepreneurial poverty and burnout closes businesses just as much, if not more than, the business running out of money.

Let's change that. Learn how to pay yourself more on today's episode.

Did you know that your personal brand can help you build your business?

But too few entrepreneurs are actually telling their story.

We are afraid of judgement, of what people will think, of saying the wrong things or not being able to craft the perfect message. We have a thousand excuses why we don't want to be posting about what we're up to.

Instead, whisper to your audience about what you're doing.

Get their attention.

Attention creates interest.

Interest creates sales.

And sales will bring you referrals.

This is a very powerful cycle that will repeat itself forever, all because you started telling your story.

"He just doesn't do the things I ask him to do!"

"They should just know!"

"How can I get them to do more?!"

All thoughts you've probably had at some point. Staffing is one of the most commonly talked about topics in our mentorship practice because owners don't understand that most problems stem from the top.

Before you continue placing blame on your underperforming staff, let's build a framework that will help you set your staff up for success right from the beginning.

No, we're not talking about your advisory board, we're talking about your Advisory Team.

Your Advisory Team are the individuals or groups that will help propel you forward both personally, and professionally.

How many times have you typed something out on your socials, and then erased it because you were terrified what others might think?

Are you a business owner who's paralyzed when it comes to posting content and putting your story out there?

This happens more often than you might think, and you're definitely not alone.

Building your audience, however, is important to the long-term growth and sustainability of your company. If you build an audience, you will have attention forever, and no shortage of new customers wanting to work with you.

In this episode, we'll talk about why audience building is important, we'll drop an Experience Framework you can follow to have guidelines to post right away, and then we'll talk about how to set realistic expectations to execute on this long-term plan consistently.

Happy posting, my friends!

As a business owner, it's our responsibility to make sure our business is profitable. But many business owners don't actually know where their money is going. Maybe you're in debt, maybe you're barely scraping by.

That's when we turn to our expense line. The automatic reaction is to cut everything you can. But eventually, you'll run into the line drawn in the sand, where you cannot cut any futher.

Then what?

How do we continue to operate lean, and still find more profit?
