Entrepreneurial Outlaws (2024)

07/07/2022

Are you running your business like an employee, or like a CEO?

Society has done a really good job of telling us to attach our self worth to our productive output. So sometimes, in order to feel productive, we find ourselves in this task master mode where we’re getting a lot done without actually accomplishing anything, right?

But you can plan ahead in your business so that you feel less overwhelmed and can practice detaching your self worth from your level of productivity – from hustle culture.

Our Summer mini series on Entrepreneurial Outlaws has been focused on preparing for the Summer (obviously), but today I want to wrap up by giving a little insight to prepping for the Autumn, too.

Tune in today to hear:

– What’s coming up for the Entrepreneurial Outlaws as the show moves into season format
– The reminder that you have to detach yourself from your productivity so that you can run your business like a CEO rather than an employee
– Knowing what the next right step is in your business and how to stop the cycle of trying to get ahead
– Using what you need as the metric for planning ahead, putting yourself first rather than deadlines

Outlaw, I know that it can feel really uncomfortable to self promote your business.

This isn’t because your work isn’t worthy of sharing or worth the investment, it’s because we are still using self promotion tactics that are rooted in bro-marketing. All of the scarcity tactics, the lack of transparency, the sales scripts, etc., make it really hard to even want to sell.

They destroy our confidence in the transformation that our services can provide.

So what to do instead? This is what I’m sharing on today’s episode of the podcast, WWOD: Overcome Your Fears of Self Promotion

But the best solution that I’ve found is to approach sales and self promotion with a humanized lens. When you take your discovery calls, focus on connection and the things you have in common with your potential client.

They are on a call with you because they’ve seen and believe in your work, so let go of fear, let go of expectations, and see the business owner for who they are and what they need help with.

If you wanna be rich all you have to do is manifest it.
‍
Imagine yourself in your dream car, your dream office. What does that look like?
‍
😩 Wait a minute… STOP, STOP, STOP.
‍
This idea that you can manifest your income is bu****it.
‍
You can’t ask the universe for $100,000 and expect it to show up in a box with a big bow on your doorstep within 7-10 days.
‍
Manifestation CAN happen, but only if you take action.
‍
And another thing? That action has to be consistent. We’re talking about MONTHS of consistency, not showing up everyday for 30 days and then wondering why you aren’t fully booked.
‍
Let’s break down these narratives together on episode 36 of the podcast 🙌

What if I told you there was an equation you could use to help set your hourly prices?
‍
(Just a little caveat, I don’t claim this to be a fool-proof strategy or one that is right for everyone).
‍
I remember when I was first starting to make some shifts in my business, I was faced with the fact that I would need to increase my prices if I wanted to maintain any semblance of a work life balance.
‍
So, I came up with a little equation to price out my hourly work, because this is the foundation of my business rather than my packages (and your hourly price helps you price out your packages).
‍
I knew I needed to make X dollars a month to pay all of my bills, but I also knew that I only had Y amount of hours, the hours where my son was in school.
‍
So I did the amount of money I wanted to make divided by the amount of hours I wanted to work, and I was left with my hourly rate.
‍
Another important piece of this is constantly checking in with yourself. How does this price feel? What needs to be adjusted? Have your goals changed?
‍
🤠 I’m talking more about this and the pricing controversy on today’s episode of the Entrepreneurial Outlaws. I can’t wait for you to tune in, let me know one action step you’ll take!

✨🧡💥 Let's tap into your inner Outlaw and stretch her mother fu***ng wings...
‍

Since starting Entrepreneurial Outlaws in October I've learned SO much. Behind the scenes it's been all about figuring out workflows, choosing tech, establishing routines and making sure our guests are taken care of. My team have been absolute badasses at keeping things moving and growing throughout this wild journey!
‍
And personally I've learned that THIS is my soul work... that all roads led here.
‍
It started out with the bu****it chafing my ass and deciding I'd had enough pretending we all needed to do the same ole s**t online to be "successful"... and it evolved into a voice, not just finding my own voice, but giving permission to badass business owners all over the world.
‍
It's been about encouragement, connection, community, honesty, and soul chemistry.
‍
We've been having the conversations and asking questions we've been too afraid to ask and it took a fu***ng global pandemic to say enough -- we're doing Outlaw S**t.
‍
And, there are ways to continue the conversations and stretching your Outlaw wings:
‍
Option 1️⃣ The Outlaw Collective, a non-traditional community for small business owners where we focus on YOU, and strengthening your intuition so you can tap into your inner wisdom and do business on your own terms.
‍
Option 2️⃣ The Outlaw Journal, a guided journal for entrepreneurs who want to swerve the Bro marketing and tap into their inner Outlaw. Use this journal to establish your own rules, terms and what you will and won’t compromise on — it’s all the stuff they don’t teach you in B-school ahem, I mean marketing school 😉
‍
Swipe through for some info, and if you’re interested in taking the next step just head to my bio!
‍
🥂Cheers to doing business differently and on your terms!

Making more money every month in your business doesn’t have to be your goal.
‍

The elusive $10k month isn’t for everyone and I wish the business industry would stop trying to constantly push it through every course and coaching tagline.
‍
🤠 The ?
‍
It's okay to be steady and enjoy that season; it's okay to ask "How do I make the same money and work less this year?"
‍
As a business owner, you’ll experience constant ebbs and flows, so it’s okay (maybe even smart) to aim for sustainability.
‍
What season is your business in? What are you enjoying about it? Let me know below, then create a little to-do on your list to tune into tomorrow’s episode of Entrepreneurial Outlaws 🧡
‍
Christina Montalvo is on the show and we’re breaking down some of the not so great trends in the business and fitness industries and what we should be aiming for as rebel business owners, instead.

I’m BIG into the parallels between songwriting and content writing, probably because music is the source of a lot of my inspiration (see yesterday’s post).⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When you see someone singing a song and you believe every single word that they are saying, this is really what it's like to be a content creator, right?⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When you're creating content that engages your audience, this is what's happening.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
There is also a very similar feeling when we are creating, whether it’s a social media post or a song, because we are telling a story, we are sharing something that our audience resonates with, we are allowing them to see themselves.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When we build that connection, that is what creates ENGAGEMENT.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But how do you write engaging content? Follow these 5 steps:⁠⁠
Align Your Energy⁠⁠
Plan Ahead⁠⁠
Create Boundaries⁠⁠
Get Inspired⁠⁠
Let Creativity Flow⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Dive deeper with me on today’s episode of Entrepreneurial Outlaws.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But first, let me know which of the 5 steps above you’re already nailing or where you’re having trouble!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

How do you feel about fear based marketing tactics? If you’re like me, you probably hate them.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Maggie Patterson of Small Business Boss is on this week’s episode of Entrepreneurial Outlaws and she’s sharing how she’s working to change an industry flooded with bro marketing to make the shift to something more ethical and authentic.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But what exactly is marketing based in fear? It can be hard to catch, but a few examples are:⁠⁠
⁠⁠
❌ Countdown timers⁠⁠
❌ Touting limited capacity⁠⁠
❌ Self blame and doubt verbiage⁠⁠
⁠⁠
And Outlaw, I used to fall for these tactics ALL. THE. TIME. which is how I ended up with tens of thousands of dollars in debt from different coaching programs.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
✨ But there’s a better way. So listen in to hear how authentic marketing can work for you and your business, PLUS steps to take the next time you want to feel GOOD about making a new investment in your business.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Can I get a HELL YES from all of my Entrepreneurial Outlaws?⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When you take a step back and take a hard look at the things about the online business industry that really bother you like…⁠⁠
⁠⁠
❌ The hustle mentality⁠⁠
❌ The myth of the solopreneur⁠⁠
❌ Unethical marketing⁠⁠
❌ Masculine energy overload⁠⁠
⁠⁠
(and maybe 100 other things)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
You my friend, are an Entrepreneurial Outlaw.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But it can be uncomfortable to sit in this, right? Maybe you’re benefiting from some of the things in your industry that you don’t necessarily condone.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Maybe you have just been doing the same thing for so long that it’s scary to think about switching things up.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I’ve been there, I sat on the fence for so long before I finally said f*ck it and pretty much started from scratch in my business so I could run it from a place of alignment and comfort.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If you’re wanting to know more about what it looks like to be an EO, be sure to listen to tomorrow’s episode of the podcast.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
THEN -- let me know what part of being an Outlaw appeals to you the most.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

You know the old saying, “with more power comes more responsibility.” If you’re an entrepreneur with a budding business, you know this is true 😩⁠⁠
⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If you’re an empath like I am, there’s another added layer because these conversations can really start to weigh on you.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But here’s the thing, every hard conversation I have had started within my journal, just me, myself and I. It was just me sitting down with the page and sifting through my feelings and questions…⁠⁠
⁠⁠
What's not working?⁠⁠
Why is this feeling so hard?⁠⁠
How do I navigate something I've not done before?⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Now these conversations feel a bit easier and I definitely feel like a more effective leader.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If this is sounding like something you need, I encourage you to check out last week’s episode of Entrepreneurial Outlaws to learn how you can create a consistent journal practice that feels GOOD 🙌⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
