Regaining Your Sanity & Finding Focus in 5 Easy Steps

Annemarie Cross — Sat, 13 Nov 2010 03:32:35 +0000

As a business woman, one of the biggest obstacles I face is finding focus. There have been times that I have laid out a plan of action and all it took was one thing, a telephone call from a client or colleague, a comment in my Twitter feed, an urgent email, and I was completely off track.

Here’s the thing, time is predetermined. The 24 hours in a day that we are given are unchanging. If we deprive ourselves of sleep in order to get more done, something or some area of our life will suffer. Therefore, I have had to learn to choose to focus my time on certain projects.

This is not an easy task, especially for an entrepreneur who plays numerous roles within my organization. Yet, this must be done in order to get the focus needed to run a business.

The first step in the right direction was sitting down and really analyzing my habits. Next was setting a plan of action to re-develop those habits. My role as an entrepreneur was to not only be the visionary, but also the strategist behind implementing that vision.

I know this can seem overwhelming, especially in today’s age where business owners are being alerted of correspondence through their phone, email, automated tools, and devices.

I found myself trying to set aside time to reply to emails for at least three different social sites and the business email address, Twitter, Facebook, and Skype. The end result however was that I was three hours into my day and I still had not moved to task number two. As a result, I decided that this was a problem that I had to find a solution for.

My habit/problem had been defined: I was too in tune to everything.

My solution: Respond more selectively. True, cultivating my online relationships with potential clients, colleagues, association members, etc. are important, nevertheless this should not take priority. This is especially true when you are trying to focus on tasks that are pertinent to your business.

The big picture: In order to keep my focus on my vision for my business and implement the strategy that would be lead to that vision being a reality, I had to complete certain tasks daily.

Responding more selectively has allowed me to re-develop my habit of being so in tune to all of the alerts that I receive on an hourly basis. It has also allowed me to re-develop my habit of trying to respond to every correspondence as soon as I receive it.

I know how important it is to make friends, colleagues, and potential clients feel respected and like they matter. On the other hand I think responding “in a timely manner” does not mean drop everything in order to do so. It took analyzing my habits for me to see that this was something that I had been doing previously.

My exercise of defining the problem first and then looking for a solution led me down the road to re-developing my habits. It was then that I found that keeping focus has become easier for me to do. The beginning of this journey started with analyzing why I seemed to lose focus over and over. This is not something that happened over night or something that I no longer have to work on. Yet it is something that continues to help immensely with bringing my focus back when I feel myself straying. Try these tips and I believe that you too will be able to find focus.

Remember:

Analyze why you seem to be losing focus.
What habits have you developed that aid in the loss of focus?
Next renovate and re-develop these habits.
Limit how in-tune to everything that you are.
Lastly, respond selectively to alerts, emails, phone calls, etc

Personal Insights:Empowering Women Worldwide

Annemarie Cross — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 06:43:07 +0000

I recently watched an episode on Oprah that really touched my heart. So much so, that I would like to dedicate this issue of Personal Insights to the women living in under-developed countries.

Oprah was interviewing journalist and co-author of Half the Sky – Nicholas Kristof about the poverty and injustice he had witnessed happening to women and girls in under-developed countries.

He shared stories of a woman dying in childbirth after a doctor refused to operate because the family could not afford $10.00; another woman being left on the side of the road to starve after she has been violated by bandits and was no longer considered useful; or of young girls being sold as slaves into the adult industry – and other terrible stories.

Sitting here in the safety and warmth of my office it’s hard to imagine that somewhere in the world, a young girl or woman is experiencing these atrocities.

However, I know that I can make a difference in the lives of these women through donating a small amount of money to help them establish their own means of income. This is one of the most powerful weapons against poverty and injustice. Knowing that in some small way I can help these women is just fantastic and is something that I want to continue doing.

If you feel compelled to help these women and want to find out more, here’s the link:

Here’s to empowering women all over the world!

Hate selling? 5 simple steps to follow when the product you are promoting is you

Annemarie Cross — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 06:37:40 +0000

You’ve hung your shingle outside your front door and are excited at the thought of the work you’ll be doing to support your clients. However, excitement soon turns to dread when you realise that prior to being of service to your clients, you need to become skilled in not only marketing, but also in the selling of your services – with the latter being an activity that makes you cringe. Can you relate?

If you’ve answered ‘yes’, you’re certainly not alone. Many service-based businesses who have to sell ‘themselves’ can struggle to reach their income goals due to their dislike and extreme difficulty in selling their services to a prospective client.

Here are 5 simple yet very effective steps that will support you in promoting yourself in an authentic way that will have your prospects lining up at your door ready to invest in you.

1. Challenge ‘unhelpful’ beliefs

One of the first and foremost steps is to confront two unhelpful beliefs that can block and inhibit you from effectively promoting your products/services.

>> Belief 1: Your belief that all sales people are pushy and would say practically anything to get the sale

We all have a story to tell where we have been put under pressure by a hard-nosed sales person, who had as much tact as a gnat when trying to get you to say ‘yes’ to their offer.

This is certainly not the approach that a heart-centred service-based entrepreneur wants to adopt – right? Well, just because there may be some annoying and unpleasant sales people in the marketplace, doesn’t mean that you have to use the same approach.

In fact, I highly recommend that you do the exact opposite. So what approach would you rather take that will enable you to incorporate your values and what’s really important to you when speaking to people who show an interest in what you are doing?

>> Belief 2: Your self-belief that you are unworthy

The first sale you have to make is to yourself. Would you invest in your own services? Do you believe that what you have to offer is of real value to your clients?

If you have a lack of confidence in your services or can’t list the benefits that your clients will receive through working with you, it will be very difficult for you to promote these services in a confident and professional manner.

These 2 mindset issues, along with others (including fear of rejection if the client says no, etc; fear of success, etc) are often what keeps people blocked and is something we dedicate quite some time to in our coaching programs.

However, an exercise that I’d encourage you to do is to spend some time identifying your strengths, your talents and the results you can support your clients in achieving. The true value you bring to your clients is a combination of all these things, and it’s extremely important that you are able to recognise and speak confidently about this when talking to a prospect.

[Note: this may be something you’d like to address during our complementary Business Breakthrough Strategy Session].

2. Reframe ‘selling’ to ‘service’

Once you recognise the amazing benefits your service (and/or product) will deliver to your prospective client, it’s then time to reframe your thinking around ‘selling’ into the mindset of ‘service’. When thinking of ‘selling’ we can often imagine a person trying to influence and persuade another person into purchasing something that they don’t really need, which is not the mindset or the approach we want.

Instead the mindset of service is one where you are offering them the value support and accountability they need to overcome the problem/issue that prompted them to make contact with you.

Allowing your struggles to continue and by not sharing information on how your product or service can support your clients, could mean that they continue to remain stuck with their issue. So, you’re actually doing them a disservice by not sharing this information with them.

Sharing information about how your service can support them in overcoming their issues means that you are being of ‘service’ – which is something all heart-centred entrepreneurs aim for – right?

3. Think ‘connection’ not ‘conversion’

Connecting and building a relationship with a contact is far more empowering than trying to convert your prospect into a client before you’ve even had the opportunity to build rapport with them or before you have taken the time to find out the reason they contacted you.

Remember, people do business with people they know, like and trust, so spending time to build a strong connection with your contact not only helps you both be more at ease, it will also give you the opportunity to build a level of credibility and trust.

Don’t think conversion, where you concentrate on your needs. Instead think connection and showing a genuine interest in THEM and THEIR needs.

4. Transform your ‘sales pitch’ into a ‘strategy session’

Jumping in and trying to ‘sell’ your services to a potential client often fails when you haven’t truly identified the needs of the client or haven’t yet had the opportunity to demonstrate that you have the ability to help them overcome their problems and issues.

Rather than launching into a sales pitch that tries to ‘sell’ your client into one of your programs, create a strategy session so that they can begin to experience what it is like to work with you.

This session could involve some powerful questions that focuses on what they WANT to achieve; getting clear on some of the action steps they need to take; while also sharing some of the success stories of how other entrepreneurs who were initially struggling with similar issues, are now reaching goals they had once only ever dared to dream about.

A strategy session that uses this approach is far more empowering and will enable you to build credibility, believability and desirability in your services, as they will have gained first-hand experience of how you can support them and the outcomes they can expect to achieve.

5. Conclude with a compelling call-to-action

We all like to make our clients feel special, so why not offer them an amazing package that covers all of the areas that they will need to work on. You could also consider including bonuses to make your offer even more irresistible. Or perhaps offer a ‘quick decision’ bonus that rewards them for taking action and enrolling in your programs.

My article 3 reasons why discounting could be damaging your reputation provides further information about how to make your offer compelling and irresistible and have them say ‘yes’ to investing in you.

So there you have it; 5 simple yet powerful steps to support you – a heart-centred service-based business owner – in promoting your products and services in an authentic way that will have your prospects flocking to your door ready to invest in your amazing services!

Time Management – Are you a victim of a hectic schedule?

Annemarie Cross — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 07:21:52 +0000

I recently ran a webinar as part of my Biz Building Webinar series on – Time Management, which presented 21 strategies on how to gain 5 hours back in your week.

As women in business, I'm sure we can all relate to hectic schedules where we have to juggle a multitude of tasks. To get everything done we often resort to burning the candle at both ends. I know – I've been there myself.

If you're struggling to find enough time in your day or if you're feeling stressed and anxious, I encourage you to watch this short video. Take back control of your schedule – your business's growth depends on it.

So which strategies will you adopt?

Fallen victim to the Competitor Comparison trap? 5 key components to boost YOUR personal best

Annemarie Cross — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 12:17:08 +0000

[Twitter tip] “Stop comparing yourself to your competitors. Measure & look to expand YOUR personal best.”

Last week my above tweet generated quite a few responses from my community all of whom agreed that this statement was an important reminder to stop assessing their business’s success by using their competitors’ performance as a benchmark.

For women in business, comparing our businesses to our competitors is something that I’m sure we’ve all done at one time or another. Competitor comparison as part of your market research during your business planning phase is often suggested as it allows you to identify how you can differentiate yourself in the marketplace.

However, if you find that you’re constantly comparing yourself to your competitors by regularly visiting their website, their Facebook Business Page or blog, scanning their newsletters, reading their Twitter posts, and watching the conversation they’re having with their community etc with a frame of mind of competing and trying to ‘out-do’ them, you’ll find this will become soul destroying and can cripple your business’s growth.

Don’t fall victim to the ‘competitor comparison trap’ – instead measure yourself against these 5 key components that relate to YOU to enable YOU to continually expand YOUR personal best.

Component 1: Your Knowledge

‘Formal education will make you a living. Self-education will make you a fortune.’

Jim Rohn’s statement is certainly appropriate.

Ongoing expansion of your knowledge and expertise is extremely important for all ambitious entrepreneurs.

Many industries continue to experience changes and advancement and to ensure your skills, knowledge and expertise are always at the forefront of these changes it’s important to continue your knowledge growth.

Do you schedule professional development opportunities into your business calendar?
Are you part of a mastermind group of like-minded business owners who can support you?
Do you have a mentor with whom you meet regularly – someone who continues to challenge, stretch and encourage you to expand, grow and evolve?

Component 2: Your Self-Belief

It saddens me when I see amazing, talented women business owners who have so much to offer, block their business’s growth because of unhelpful habits and barriers, which is often because of a lack of belief in themselves and what they have to offer.

The words of one of my business mentors echo loudly for me when she says “Who you are is reflected in your business results, daily.”

So what do your business results reflect about you?

Do you recognise the strengths and talents you offer your clients and the value you bring, or do you constantly find yourself making excuses such as “Oh it’s nothing, anyone can do that”.
Do you have amazing goals for your business; however things just keep getting in the way, preventing you from ever achieving what it is that you really want?
Do you have bold money goals that you’re so committed to achieving, however that inner voice is constantly in the background raising an element of doubt that you’ll ever really achieve it?

Component 3: Your Reputation (Brand)

Your reputation and your brand are the lifeblood of your business and should therefore be managed with the utmost of care and precision.

Everything you do, write and say reflects on you and your brand. Do it inappropriately and unprofessionally – you may as well give out the contact details of your competitors right now as that’s where your prospects will end up. [Would you invest in someone who was acting in poor taste?]

Have you got a strong brand message that you are regularly portraying through all your communications whether it be in print, video or in person?
Are you communicating your brand in a consistent and professional way that powerfully connects with prospects and clients?
Are you constantly looking for ways that you can continue to bring your brand message out to a larger audience? And, are you regularly communicating your brand with your existing community through blogs, articles or video posts?

Component 4: Your Relationships

It’s a well-known fact. People recommend and do business with people they know, like, and trust – so how do you measure up on the likeability scale?

Building and nurturing your relationships with your database, your Twitter followers, your Facebook friends, your Linkedin connections etc should be an important part of your business-building endeavours and something you should continue to monitor on a daily basis.

Are you taking regular action that results in people joining your tribe and community?
Are you adopting an approach of regularly sharing valuable information with your community with no expectations in return?
When interacting and connecting with your community – how are you showing up? Are you doing so in a way that is positive and inspiring to ensure you continue to strengthen your relationships?

Component 5: Your Marketing & Sales Skills

While it’s important to maintain your level of excellence in what you do and offer to your clients, another crucial area that you need to become skilled at is in your marketing and sales abilities.

Even if you offer the best products and/or services that can support your clients in achieving results that are beyond their wildest dreams, if no-one knows about you, or you struggle in promoting and selling your products and services, you’ll find it very difficult to generate a level of income that will sustain your business’s growth.

Do you have a solid marketing plan in place that schedules solid marketing strategies and action taking on a daily basis? And, does your marketing plan include both offline (face-to-face) and online (social media) networking?
Does your website copy and your conversation continue to market your offerings in a way that allows your prospects to understand the value they will receive when they invest in you?
Do you feel comfortable when having sales conversations with your prospects?
Have you got a solid process in place to help you respond to that dreaded question “So, what do you charge?” so that you don’t blow an amazing opportunity to show your prospect what they can achieve through working with you?

Tracking and monitoring these five components in your business will be far more authentic and empowering as you continue to grow your business, and will certainly be noticeable and far more appealing AND influential to your community of followers, your prospects and your existing clients.

Here’s to expanding YOUR personal best!

Services not selling? 5 vital steps to transform prospects into clients

Annemarie Cross — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 07:27:07 +0000

You’ve spent countless hours creating your program/service offering; your promotional material has been circulated; your sales webpage promoting your new program is live (and looking extremely impressive); and you’ve spoken to a number of your connections who you know could benefit from participating in the program. However despite all the effort you’ve put into this entire process – no-one has made a purchase. Is this something you can relate to? If you’ve answered yes – you’re certainly not alone.

Sadly, even though you may have the best program in the world that can support your clients in achieving amazing results, there is no guarantee that you’ll have people flocking to your door with their credit card poised ready to invest in your services.

Before you develop another program or service offering ensure you have the following five steps in place to support you in transforming your prospects into raving clients.

Step 1: Identify the level of demand for your program/service offering

Despite the fact that YOU know your program/service offering would be of great benefit to your clients, have you researched:

whether your target market recognises they are facing issues and genuinely want to overcome their struggles
the size of your prospective market, and
whether your target market has a history of investing in the type of solutions you offer.

Before you even begin to develop your program it’s imperative to identify whether there is a large enough market and whether your prospect is willing to part with their hard-earned dollars to invest in you.

Further investigation may confirm that despite their desperate need for your support, an ingrained ‘culture’ will see them continue their struggle rather than choosing to invest in your program and overcome their issues.

Targeting a market that requires repeated convincing that they need your service will only lead to a decline in your energy, your sanity and your hip pocket, so it’s important to identify a market that has a high level of demand AND a willingness to invest in your services.

Step 2: Pinpoint your target market’s needs

If I were to ask you to describe your target market could you identify their demographics, their needs, what keeps them up at night and where they hang out, etc?

It’s imperative to have an intimate knowledge of your target market, including:

Answer the above questions to create a thorough profile of your ideal customer so that you can accurately pinpoint your target market’s needs. This information will support you in creating your marketing plan, your webpage sales/marketing copy as well as helping you locate the best place to connect with and get your message in front of them.

The problems/issues they are experiencing
The words and phrases they use to describe their issues
The type of support/solutions they are typically looking for
The pricing point they are willing to/can invest
The language/triggers that will catch their attention and prompt them to want to learn more about your services

Step 3: Get clear on your brand

With the increasing number of competitors in the marketplace it’s important to have a clearly-defined brand that showcases your expertise and the benefits your clients can expect from working with you, in order to stand out from the crowd.

Do you know what your strengths are and what makes you unique? Do you continue to present this information in an influential and powerful way? It’s important to create a strong brand that is memorable and magnetic and enables you to be recognised as an expert and leader in your field to continue attracting your ideal client.

Remember an inconsistent brand message can cause prospects to become confused and a confused prospect will often say no. Don’t set yourself up to receive a ‘no’ to your offer because you are sending a weak and incoherent brand message.

Step 4: Grow Your List

Thriving businesses state that one of the most important elements that has enabled them to secure their wealth and success is building their list. In fact, one of my mentors often states ‘the money is in your list’.

Are you actively building your list? Do you have a process in place that prompts clients to hand over their email address and other contact details to you?
Consider offering prospects a free report or a video and/or audio series that provides valuable content. In order to access these resources your prospect is required to provide you with their email, thus adding their details to your list. [Step 5 explains how you can continue to leverage your list.]

Step 5: Build Your Relationships

Do you have a regular newsletter that enables you to remain in contact with your list of existing customers and prospects? Are you consistently taking the time to not only strengthen the relationship but also continue to portray your knowledge and expertise by providing informative practical tips?

Remember, people do business with people they know, like and trust and consistent communication with your list is a fantastic way to build a solid relationship. It often takes several communications before a prospect is ready to make a purchasing decision so sending a regular newsletter that provides useful information is a great way to strengthen your relationships while continuing to showcase your knowledge and expertise.

Are you adopting all five steps in your business to support you in transforming your prospects into clients – especially Step 1 and 2 before you even begin developing your new programs/service offerings? If you’ve answered yes, congratulations! If not, which step will you start to work on within your business today?
