Show notes:
I opened my first business at age 23 and failed.
Not everything we touch as entrepreneurs turns to gold.
I went on a search to find a business that served me.
I run a freedom-based business.
I invested $$ in the first year to learn what I didn't know.
I see many entrepreneurs try to piecemeal or cheaply build a business versus hire who is needed.
Business is not always easy but it is simple. Keep it REAL simple.
Lesson #1: Learn from experts but ensure it aligns with YOU.
Create your own business around you and your values, vision and style.
Lesson #2: Create visibility with connection
In business, be visible with a goal of connecting.
You have to be visible so people can find you, connect with you and do business with you.
Create a visibility plan.
Lesson #3: Focus on giving rather than getting.
Bigger purpose and mission fuels your energy more than "stuff".
Instead of your financial goal, what is your give-back goal?
Find something bigger than you that keeps you engaged even during the tough days.
Give great content and value and it comes back around.
