The Rookie Mistake That’s Costing You Your Business Growth

We all know what it’s like when you start out in your business. 

We leave our corporate worlds with big dreams of focusing on that ONE thing that lights us up. We know just how much of an impact our work has on other people’s lives and we’re chomping at the bit to get the word out there. 

That’s when you realise just how different life as an entrepreneur really is. It’s a STEEP learning curve — needing to level up in 17 different areas to create a fully functioning biz — but you still feel super grateful that you’re in the position to bring your dream to life. 

So where does it all go wrong?

You market your products and services. You network. You grow in confidence.

The sales start rolling in. 

Amazing! Right? 

Well… yes. In some ways. 

But as your workload increases — your personal time diminishes. The things you used to do to enhance your life suddenly don’t fit in your busy schedule. 

You work for your clients and cram everything else in around it. 

Early mornings, late nights, weekends spent chained to your laptop. 

You max out on your time. You hit a ceiling. And success in your business feels nothing like you thought it would. 

So what do you do?

The MAGIC formula! 

Here’s the truth — there’s a LOT that goes into running a business. 

Not all of it fun. 

But the MAGIC comes when you can start separating out the tasks that NEED you to do them — and which ones don’t. 

It’s all about the difference between the £10 tasks and the £1,000 tasks. 

I hear from so many that the parts of the business they HATE are things like filing documents, engaging on social media, processing data… 

It’s very rarely getting on sales calls or working with clients — yep, the £1,000 actions. 

So — the trick is to change your biz so that the £1,000 tasks make up most of your time. 

What next?
