Big Hope for Your Cash Flow & WorkFlow – The two biggest roadblocks to joy and success and how to solve them both at the same time

The problems to solve:

1. FOCUS FOR SOLOPRENEURS: Where should I focus as a solopreneur starting out or if I am still trying to get to the thriving stage?  If I don’t have that focus, then the default life is overwhelming and worrying and that is very unsettling for me and my team (if you have one.)
2. FOCUS FOR MORE SEASONED BUSINESS OWNERS: Where should I focus as a more seasoned entrepreneur with a more thriving business?  Not having that answer everyday leaves me rudderless and dissatisfied - a ship captain with no clue where to proceed.  I feel like I am wasting my days unnecessarily and wasting my team’s time.
3. EFFICIENT WORKFLOWS: How do I get more efficient with work flows (e.g. managing projects) - without adding more to my plate - in fact, how can I make it really easy?  The systems I have are more of a distraction and source of resistance.
4. PEACE OF MIND WITH CASH FLOW: How do I get more efficient and effective with cash flow, so I can predict what it would be and reduce stress around cash flow being enough or more than enough?

‍

Stress tends to go down when two things are handled:

1. Your cash flow
2. Your workflow

Could there be other factors that you need to handle? Of course, but these are the main ones that stand out based on my experience.

When stress goes down, innovation and the search for bigger or more interesting results in your business grows.  The other thing that grows is your curiosity for things beyond the ordinary - answering the question of what could make your life extraordinary.

‍

Handling Cash Flow:

There are a couple of components of this game of handling cash flow:

1. IMMEDIATE PEACE OF MIND WITH CLEAR REALITY: Getting a good cash flow ‘basis’ i.e. a what is so about your cash flow and when you run out, so you can get a plan together to address it sooner rather than later
2. FUEL FOR YOUR BUSINESS: Attracting leads for your business, affordably, effectively and efficiently
3. AN INCOME ENGINE: Converting leads into paying clientele

‍

Handling Workflows:

When you are a conscious entrepreneur or solopreneur, you will look at workflows as a combination of

1. Getting things done  
2. Not forgetting anything important  
3. Spreading the joy of work over time, rather than stressing to get things done now  4.  Genuinely having enough time to express and experience joy
4. Having a simple dashboard and system to help you manage the workflows and eventually or very soon, have someone else manage them for you

What would life look like if you had all of that?

I know it can be a manipulative question and I struggled if I should really ask you that - but I ask the question to elicit your best imagination and desire to be free, joyful and effective.

What can you do?

If you are starting out or not quite at a thriving business yet, but you are overwhelmed:

In this situation, you want to quickly start at immediate needs which is usually about cash flow.

In some cases, this breakthrough in cash flow can take place in 3 months.

So the following stages are crucial:

1. QUICK REALITY BETTER THAN LONG TERM SUFFERING: Getting a what-is-so quickly about your cash flow needs.  We have a software that we give free to our clients which enables them to see what their predicted cash balances in their bank accounts will be every single day for the next year.  This tells them and me, in a simple and effective way what the plan should be in terms of bringing in cash flow.
2. GET A GREAT OFFER CREATED - ONE YOU CAN CHARGE MORE MONEY FOR: This is crucial and also uplifting once you have it.  You now have something you can sell that brings in a lot more cash flow per client and per unit time. You are supercharging your income.
3. LEARN AND MASTER CONVERTING MORE PEOPLE FOR THIS GREAT OFFER:  When I work with people at this stage, I do my best and more to get them to be gracefully effective with people - the art and science of finding out exactly what they want and need, so that the sale is easy with less or absolutely no roadblocks.

‍

If you are a more seasoned entrepreneur but have less down time and too much ‘up-time’ (busier than busy time):

In this situation, your ability to manage your projects and your teams are crucial.

I aim to get you a breakthrough in this ability as soon as possible.  

In some cases, this can happen within three months.

The stages are usually

1. Simplifying without compromising integrity: How to cut out the things that are lower priority and focus only on things that matter.  This involves conversations to handle and disable your resistance to doing this (done in a graceful, respectful and disarming manner.)  Then we timeline out the year, so that you feel in control and at peace with doing things with a better pacing (rather than the unrealistic way of doing everything at the same time.)
2. Using our Joyful Workflows system (ridiculously easy to train, low tech and provided for free to our clients) to manage the shorter list of projects with our trained low cost project admins and admins, so that the thinking about projects and the work is delegated as much as possible.

A Positive Side Effect: A Joyful Calendar:

1. It does not take too long, before your calendar starts having more blank space i.e. free time on it.  
2. The work above tends to have that effect. This is easier to see than it is to explain (and there is an explanation.)
