Building Your Personal Brand: For years, marketers have worked with companies to build their brand. Cementing a brand message into a consumer’s mind makes sure you’ll get a shot at their business when they need your service. Imagine your air conditioner stops working and it’s 95 degrees outside. You’ll head to your computer and do a search for a repair company. You’ll likely click on the first company you see that has a name or brand you already know.

5 Ways in Which Business is Like Getting in Shape

Everything I Know About Business I Learned from Getting Fit

Most entrepreneurs talk about how they’ve always been entrepreneurs even as kids, and I am no exception. But while other young entrepreneurs-in-training had paper routes, touted homemade lemonade on hot summer days, and sold candy door-to-door, I made and marketed Creepy Crawlers to the neighbourhood kids.

Even back then, I had my own style of doing things.

Flash forward to adulthood.

Not much has changed, except I now understand the work it takes to actually make money doing what you love.

In a nutshell: It’s not easy.

My career ran the gamut from the day I left college, after earning a Bachelor’s degree in nutrition. I spent seven years working as a recipe development and product development specialist for a food consulting firm.

Through various projects there, I discovered a knack for creating desserts and went on to become a pastry chef, and then a bakery owner.

Ironically, I ended up tossing aside the sugar and flour to become a personal trainer (I was always into fitness even while making chocolate mousse cakes). After 15 years of working in fitness I once again grew restless and rediscovered (I’d always enjoyed it) my love for writing.

I worked as a freelance writer for the past decade, won a couple of awards and again felt an itch to do something else.

It sounds a bit manic, but I thrive on challenge, and once I no longer feel challenged, I move on. Plus, I experienced success in each career, at least by my personal standards.

Sales Funnels: How and Why to Get Into the Game

If you know anything about marketing, or have been in the business world for any length of time, chances are you’ve heard the term “sales funnel” tossed around once or twice.

It may be referred to as a marketing funnel, a marketing pipeline, a sales pipeline, or even a revenue funnel or sales process. While definitions can very slightly, for the most part, all the terms mean the same thing.

A sales funnel at its most basic is the process a customer must go through to purchase a product or service from your company.

It typically consists of several steps (or stages) a potential visitor must navigate, and each new step or stage will differ depending on the type of products or services you offer and your company’s sales model. Each new step or stage moves them closer toward the end goal, which is making a sale and gaining you a customer.

Gran Turismo Sport Opportunities for Small Business

Gran Turismo Sport has changed Virtual Reality gaming and given the general public a whole new way to interact with some of the biggest brands in the world. This is no game for kids anymore and the older generation have fallen in love with this racing simulator.
The online championship will inevitably blossom into a serious eSport and you could be a world championship racer in the comfort of your own home.

So, does this provide an opportunity for an eco-system of small businesses? Yes, is the simple answer.

A deep, rich VR experience
The reviews of the game speak for themselves. This is a totally immersive driving simulator that goes well beyond a game. When you slip on the VR headset then you become a part of the action at the Nurburgring, Willow Springs Parkway and other iconic tracks.
You also get the sound, speed and real driving dynamics of a LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and serious racing cars from around the world.

Suddenly, a button-based controller pulls you out of the fantasy. It just isn’t good enough. You need a steering wheel, racing seat and pedals to truly make the most of this new world.
That’s where Thrustmaster comes in, with a range of steering wheel and pedal sets to suit every budget. The range-topping T-GT was created for Gran Turismo Sport, it’s officially licensed and it’s an absolute beast.

The T-GT is built around T-DFB technology that gives increased feedback through the steering column and leather-wrapped wheel. You’ll feel every nuance of the track surface as you go wheel-to-wheel with your rival to the apex. That takes you deeper into the game, which makes you a better racer.

Mindset vs Mechanics in Business

If I told you that I could waive a magic wand and give you the best business mindset or the best business mechanics, which would you choose?

If you chose mindset, you are probably already well on your way to achieving your true business potential.

Mechanics are important, but they can change and you can outsource mechanics. Mindset gets you up in the morning, keeps you focused, and causes people to know, like, and trust you.

The right mindset gives you a solid frame on which to build your business. Mechanics are the finishing touches that make your business more efficient.

The true potential for your business requires mutually-beneficial relationship with five categories of people: Customers, competitors, collaborators, colleagues, and contractors.

These people hold the keys to your long-term business potential. No mechanism or tactic can ensure you have quality relationships with them. Only your mindset can.

Having the right mindset—a growth mindset—will help you make sure each of the people who are vital to your business know, like, and trust you.

Having a growth mindset builds that trust and expands your network, filling it with like-minded and appreciative customers, collaborators, colleagues, and contractors, as well as competitors who respect and cooperate with you in a way that helps both of you grow your businesses.

Having a growth mindset requires you to believe the truth that there is plenty of business and good fortune to go around. Having a growth mindset requires you to believe the truth that money, opportunity, and success are like the flame of a candle: one lit candle has plenty of fire to light an unlimited number of other candles without
diminishing the size of its flame.

What is Your Why?

Do your eyes pop open in the morning as you enthusiastically spring from bed or do you lay there wishing you could turn over and just forget the day ahead?

If the latter, you may be missing your “why.” Without your why you cannot succeed because you will forget your purpose and burn out. You need to know why you are doing what you do?

You can have long-term “whys” and short-term “whys.” Is your why to provide for your family? Be able to buy special gifts for your loved ones this Christmas season? To give back to your community? To grow yourself as a person?

There are so many reasons behind what we do. You can have more than one why but you need to hone in on what is at the heart of everything. What is most important to you personally.

The Benefits of SEO for Small Business

Just because you have a small business, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pay attention to SEO. As an SEO expert through my agency Six Stories, I’ve seen many small businesses struggle because they didn’t have their search optimization in order. By utilizing common local SEO strategies and best practices, this type of online optimization can help your business get more visibility through better information and segmentation targeted to your ideal audience. Below are some of the ways that an SEO expert can help you.

seo for small businessConsistent Information Across Platforms
One of the first things many SEOs do when they get a new small business client is make sure all their online platforms are consistent. Then means checking to make sure things like website URL, hours of operation, email address, and phone number are correct. You’d be surprised at how many of your likely competitors don’t have their correct contact information on their online profiles!

Some of the platforms a local SEO review check entails are usually Google Places, Bing Places, Yelp, TripAdvisor (if in service industry), BrightLocal, social media, and other applicable review and business directory sites.

Instant Visibility Boost
By getting your online profiles in order, you are making sure your information is consistent across all online platforms your customers may be searching for your applicable services. This can give you an instant visibility boost, especially if you have online profiles that are tracked often.

Following other SEO best practices for small businesses can also bring about better visibility, often quickly. These can include:

Rich Dad Poor Book Review

Robert Kiyosaki, Author of Rich Dad Poor Dad

Getting Your
Finances Together
It’s hard not to hear about the book Rich Dad Poor Dad when talking about popular finance books. Even though it’s been around for awhile, there’s a good reason why it’s still considered required reading. Robert Kiyosaki doesn’t just teach you personal finance fundamentals, he provides a way for readers to shift their thinking about money altogether.

A Quick Overview of the Book
Written as a parable, where the narrator has two fathers and compares how his actual father didn’t do well compared to his rich dad. The poor dad is like those who are caught up in the rat race, trapped in a cycle of needing more but not being able to achieve their dreams of accumulating wealth. The rich dad, however, represents the wealthy who has learned personal finance knowledge (like accounting and generating assets) and used it to their advantage. They aren’t caught in the vicious cycle like the poor dad is.

Bootstrapping Your Side Business:
On Mindset, Money Management, and Working ON the Business.

What do Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Michael Dell, Pierre Omidyar of eBay, and John Pemberton of Coca-Cola have in common? They bootstrapped their startups from nothing to the juggernauts they are today.

Therefore, it’s no surprise that many successful full-time professionals are hustling to run a side business – all while also supporting a growing family.

While the juggling is undoubtedly something that can be done, it’s not for the faint-hearted. The long, daily commutes, the intricacies of building a business from the ground up, the demands of a job that still pays the bills, and the need to keep up with family life can easily take a toll on anyone who’s not physically, mentally, and emotionally equipped to take the plunge.

Wearing several different hats – and being effective at each one – is already a tough act to pull off, more so when the side business involves just you. But with grit, willpower, and some mindset tweaking, there is a way to get through to the other side.
