Speaking
I am available to speak for teleclasses, webinars and other virtual learning events and also have limited availability to speak live on stage… my favorite speaking topics include:
The Leaky Bucket Syndrome: How to plug the leaks in your business so you can get stuff done, make more money and keep your sanity!
Picture this. As a successful entrepreneur, you’re making more money than ever before – your marketing is on track, sales are through the roof, you’re attracting plenty of clients, and yet you’re working ALL the time – exhausted and finding there’s just not enough time in the day to get it all done. Sound at all familiar? What you need most right now are reliable SYSTEMS and knowledgeable SUPPORT so you can effectively leverage your time and get everything done. Learn how to recognize the signs of Leaky Bucket Syndrome in your business along with the 3 key elements required to “plug” that leaky bucket. We’ll go deep into the operations management and team development required for you to create a strong foundation for your thriving business and the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make with their systems and what you can implement right now that will have a major impact on your business (and your sanity!)
Hiring a Virtual Support Team – Get the Help you Need Without Spending a Fortune
As a business owner we know that we need help to “get stuff done” – we need the right support to take care of the many administrative, technical and other day to day activities for us so that we can focus our energy on what grows our business. And yet, traditionally the only option has been to hire employees, which is tough for many business owners. Thankfully in today’s digital age there is an alternative – hiring a virtual support professional to give you the help you need in a structure that fits you, your business and your budget.
From Secretary to CEO - Creating Success in Spite of Myself
People think that I was “born to be an entreprenuer” and that simply wasn’t so. I never grew up thinking that I would have my own business… in fact it was quite the opposite. I went to school, got a degree and figured I would work a corporate job forever, until I got really bored and figured there must be something more. Which began my journey of going from secretary to CEO of my own business. I’ve learned alot along the way, but most of all i’ve learned how much we get in the way of our own success and how critical it is to change how we view ourselves, our clients and our business in order to create true success.
