Description

Have you ever stopped to think about your journey into entrepreneurship? Where you started, where you’ve been, and the lessons you learned along the way?

In this episode of #MeetCoolPeople, I'm sharing a bit about my entrepreneurial journey and the lessons I’ve learned over the years.

From kicking off my career in the staging industry for rock and roll concerts (Pre-business) to building a web and graphic design agency, to teaching small business marketing to building a coaching business around email marketing, I share the lessons that I feel I’ve learned at every stage and how they helped me evolve over the years.

I talk about how my journey evolved and some pivotal moments that shaped my path. For instance, burnout led me to pivot from web design to teaching and coaching in marketing, showing that sometimes the best moves come from unexpected challenges.

Here are a few takeaways from our chat:

• Systematization is Key: Early lessons in staging concerts taught me the power of precision and repeatable systems. Carrying this forward into business can streamline operations and improve efficiency.
• Be Ready to Evolve: Business models need evolution. My transition from web design to marketing coaching and eventually to email campaign management illustrates how staying flexible can open new doors.
• Continuous Learning is Crucial: Throughout my career, continuous learning has been my backbone. Staying curious and educating yourself keeps your skills sharp and relevant.
• Your Network is Your Net Worth: The connections you make are vital. Networking can lead to clients, mentors, and lifelong friendships. Be intentional about where and with whom you spend your time.
• Enjoy What You Do: Don't pursue something solely for monetary gain. Passion fuels longevity and success in your career.

Thanks for joining me today. I hope you found something valuable, and I’d love to hear from you if this resonated or sparked any thoughts. Let's keep on growing and evolving together!
