3:48 Kristi shares her three big goals that she’d like to grow impact and her desire to increase her reach through each of her core offerings.
6:30 Kristi and I talk about how the program, Spring Clean Your Spirit, works
8:19 I find a cool continuity income opportunity as a part 2 to the Spring Clean Your Spirit program. We talk through how it could work, how to price it, and what to include so that the growth comes with ease and grace.
10:56 We discuss how to fill her program for maximum impact and the psychology behind launching a new program, including how to leverage strategic partners for new participants.

16:06 Kristi reinforces one of her key values for making decisions – keeping things simple so she keeps mental bandwidth for writing her next book. Kristi shares how doing too much last year led to burn out.
18:00 I’m not giving up on the continuity income idea – so I create a different way to create a “phase 2” that could provide ongoing income by leveraging partners teaching content instead of Kristi having to create a new content series.
23:19 I cover the timeline of an ideal launch and the timing of when to bring partners on board and when to start promoting. I also cover some simple ways to increase sales with fast action bonuses.

As an entrepreneur, eliminate costly mistakes and accelerate growth by using systems. When you create and use a procedure, checklist or documented process, you and your team can accomplish ten times more in a fraction of the time – because you know exactly what to do. In this week’s episode, Melanie shares how a few key systems helps you have more creative freedom and ensure that tasks are done on-time.
Key Takeaways
2:30 How something as simple as following the recipe for making spaghetti sauce explains why business systems are so valuable.
5:34 Listen to today’s episode thinking – where could a system free me up?
6:06 A sign you need a system: there’s a breakdown, you aren’t getting the results you want, your team continues to disappoint you with their performance. Make a list of what costs you time or money because it’s not done right?
9:49 A quick overview of some of the systems that can free you up in your business are covered, including how creating a prospect evaluation system helped a client in Australia transform his lead generation system.
13:07 How to use procedures to document what your desired process or outcome is. This is critical when you delegate to others and you need the task to be done a specific way. A great time to create a document is if you are a show or event producer – create a document with all the details to send out to all of your guest speakers to save time and eliminate breakdowns.
17:43 Use step-by-step instructions or checklists when someone must follow a specific set of steps to complete a task. This is also invaluable when you need anyone on your team to step in and complete tasks seamlessly. For instance, if you create a lot of new products, use a checklist with each element that must be created.
19:29 Templates can save time and money by creating a script, visual or specific layout for documents. For instance, customer service emails could have a template or Facebook ads might need to have a specific layout.
20:09 A form can be used to channel requests where you might have a lot of questions – like asking new prospects a series of questions or using a form with specific details that we need to evaluate in a request for speaking.
21:45 Think of the value of systems as “I do something once, and it pays off over and over again.” Don’t try to create all of your systems at once as it can feel overwhelming. Prioritize 3 at a time and slowly build up.

Most entrepreneurs try to grow their income and achieve bigger goals with the same mindset that they started their small business with in the first place. But that mindset will just keeps them stuck at the level of success they have right now. With a CEO Mindset, an entrepreneur can level up their decision making and focus so that they spend more time leading their team to achieve great success.
Listen in as I share how a few simple thoughts can be sabotaging your growth -- and how you can elevate your mindset to achieve bigger success.
Key Takeaways
1:00 Think about what your biggest goal is? Is it to grow your income into six, seven or even eight figures? Get clear on your goal so you know what mindset you really need.
3:21 A sign you are using the wrong thinking to grow your business is you never seem to have time to work on your “bigger goal” projects.
4:23 Multiple Train Syndrome: When you have multiple projects you are trying to move forward, but since it’s just you, you have to get off one train to drive another. Projects move forward REALLY slow!
5:50 Write down the answer: What would the leader of a six [or seven or eight] figure business do differently? Train your mind to think through this question.
7:37 Employee thinking keeps you playing a small game in your business. When you think more like a CEO, you play a bigger game.
10:17 The first of five CEO Mindset Shifts is to Have a Clear Vision of where you want to be in your business. Whether its 6 months or 6 years, have a clear vision.
13:20 The second CEO Mindset Shift is Time Mastery. As a CEO & leader, time is often what you have the least of but having a mental mastery to prioritize is critical to sustain higher levels of success.
15:30 Knowing your Personal Productivity Formula will help you make better decisions for what you say yes to.
19:30 The third CEO Mindset Shift is Delegating Profitably. Whether you are afraid to let go or you don’t know how to pay for the team you need, if you aren’t delegating enough, this can become a huge bottleneck. Melanie covers 3 ways you hold back from delegating properly that end up costing you time and lost opportunity.
24:24 The fourth CEO Mindset Shift is Making Better Decisions. Your decisions are your success fuel since every decision drives your actions, strategies and growth efforts.
26:18 Decisions and your comfort zone go “hand in hand.” When you stretch into CEO Thinking, you’ll make better decisions that are in alignment with your definition of success.
27:34 The fifth CEO Mindset Shift is recognizing you need to Invest to Grow. A mistake many entrepreneurs make is using the “top line revenue” to make investment decisions instead of knowing the real numbers. Don’t get stuck on what things cost. Look at how the investments in your future success can pay off.

Inside this week’s episode, Melanie delves into five of her favorite time-saving, automation tools that boost her productivity and helps her team be more efficient. Plus, she shares a few bonus tools and compares a few popular technologies and why she isn’t using the cool kid’s choice for task management software.
Key Takeaways
2:25 Melanie starts with her most favorite time-saving, productivity boosting tool that helps her manage her team and stay focused on time sensitive project deadlines.
4:39 A good task management system helps an entrepreneur eliminate foggy thinking or feeling lost with what to do next. Melanie gives some examples of how this kind of online software works with routine tasks as well as tracking project deliverables.
7:29 A sanity-saver for Melanie – having a task management system that emails reminders to the team and business owner so that you know if something is falling behind.
9:23 Melanie’s 2nd favorite tool is a Customer Relationship Manager (CRM) system that allows us to integrate automatic follow up with email management and online sales.
13:21 This tool offers a lot of integrated online forms, surveys and segmenting options for advanced marketing analytics and documentation.
15:36 One of the simplest tools to increase productivity (and its FREE) is Google Calendar. We use it with an online scheduler to allow our clients, partners and other parties to schedule easily.
18:00 This tool can actually save you money by freeing up your assistant’s time from chasing down appointments and having automated appointment reminders.
19:38 There’s now a cool plugin that links our CRM with our online scheduler Acuity to automate our follow up steps after an appointment is confirmed.
21:24 Another productivity tool, especially if you collaborate, is Google Drive (and its free!)
25:30 A newer tool that Melanie and her team are transitioning to is Zoom for live video teleconferencing (and she uses it to record for guest podcast sessions too!)
30:58 This tool is not normally a productivity too, but this one is a time (and cost) saver for anyone who creates a lot of online websites and landing pages.
33:06 A favorite app that saves a ton of time – and has helped boosted Melanie’s creativity is Canva for Work. Most people know the online tool but the iPhone app is amazing!

26:24 One way to move through a dark night is to be willing to honor your truth, even if it’s not matching what the popular advice is.
30:01 A paradigm shift is that experiencing a dark night is a compliment, and a sign that you are ready to go much deeper in order to serve on a greater level.

Melanie breaks through an insidious habit that causes many people who make big money struggle to make ends meet: spending it all at once! In this episode, you will hear a coaching session between Melanie and Joanna Vargas, with techniques to save but still allot money to spend, as well as changing your mindset about what it means to save, and take ownership of the financial aspect.
Key Takeaways:
[1:15] Melanie gives some background on Joanna’s business, situation, and celebration, before she dives into the coaching session.
[4:20] Joanna is struggling with ravenous spending when she gets a surge of income. How do we allow ourselves to spend, without being self-conscious about it?
[5:56] Melanie talks through some reasons for overspending: is it trying to create an experience to fit in or be seen in a certain way, or a starvation, where we feel relief when we get some money, and feel like we need to “catch up?” In some instances, it may be a matter of buying your way into importance, or spending your money to get back to a sense of normalcy.
[7:50] Commit to creating your own personal financial reserves. This can create a mindset of comfort, because you always have money.
[8:33] “The Bucket Philosophy”: When people feel starved for money, and put themselves in a state of restriction, when they do get money, it leaves so quickly, because of their being frugal for so long. The Bucket Philosophy is a saving strategy that allots the money for different funds.
[9:21] Five buckets: life needs, discretionary spending, short-term savings, long-term savings, and “the play fund.”
[11:23] This allows you to ensure that you are saving the money you need, but also allowing yourself to set aside some money that you can feel good about spending.
[15:00] Is there a stigma around people who save money? Joanna opens up about her struggle with what saving money means.
[18:21] There may be a feeling of losing the ability to feel valued and important, and feel in control. One of the ways to be in control is to take ownership of the financial.
[19:11] Melanie talks Joanna through an exercise to help reconcile two ideas that seem like they can’t coexist. In this case, it is creating sustainable wealth, and living a fun life.
[22:38] Take a moment to sit down and think about some of these techniques and exercises, to see if you can have the same breakthrough!

Melanie’s book: Rewired for Wealth
Melanie talks about four essential shifts you can make to achieve more impact and more success effortlessly. A couple of quick shifts in who you’re being can actually power up your doing.
Key Takeaways:
[1:16] What do you do when you’re trying to break that next level of success, and it’s not working, despite feeling like you’re doing all the right things?
[1:55] “Be. Do. Have.” Concept: Doing isn’t the focus, it’s being.
[3:20] When Melanie began to break down her own barriers, she started to study what was working for other people, emulating specific aspects of successful people. The shifts occurred in four pillars: mindset, action and behavior, environment, and wisdom.
[4:39] Bold, courageous mindset: You have to be willing to do you, authentically. Don’t sacrifice the best parts of you to be successful.
[6:13] Are the offerings and the approach you’re taking aligned with your values, what’s important to you, and using your strengths?
[6:58] Balance the long-term vision with short-term action. It can be easy to lose focus on where you ultimately want to be, but it is important to evaluate where you are putting your time and attention. This can be very important for your money mindset, especially how you sell and enroll.
[11:25] Really understand the line between something that is costing you money but not bringing in return, and an investment that helps you expand your success.
[12:12] Successful people don’t let the “how” get in the way of action. Commit to the outcome, and then you figure out how you’re going to achieve it.
[13:30] Productivity and action: Are you taking actions that are producing results? Develop a timely (weekly, monthly) consistency to your highest-impact activities.
[15:05] Optimization: recognizing what you have, before you create more.
[16:52] Time boundaries are something that really sets success apart. Create time boundaries so you have clarity about what you should be saying yes to, and what you shouldn’t be saying yes to.
[18:07] Learn how to leverage other people’s talents to free up your time for what will propel you forward.
[21:11] Environment: Melanie defines environment as being made up of the people and the situations and communities that you’re spending time in. Evaluate where you get inspired. Your environment has a huge unconscious influence over your motivation and what you believe is possible.
[22:42] Melanie is a huge proponent of coaches and masterminds. If you’re not feeling inspired in your environment, you may look to surround yourself with some other people who will push you in a healthy way.
[24:36] There are some people who are lifestyle-based, and some people who are work- and achievement-based. Find the person that inspires you to be the best version of you.
[26:16] Wisdom: This pillar is vital. Melanie suggests a three-fold approach: 1) a commitment to evolving and growing, 2) understand the power of leadership, and 3) be clear about what should get your yes.
[29:13] As you move into the new year, really evaluate if you’re being the level of entrepreneur, creative, or thought leader that can propel, rather than wasting time on things that do not produce results.

[4:18] How important was the decision point that made your dream a reality? Jim talks about the technicalities of how they transitioned from their current lives, to their new adventure.
[6:57] One of the biggest mistakes an entrepreneur or small business owner can make is focusing on new sales, at the expense of keeping their current clients engaged. There is great opportunity for profit, when you find a balance between getting new clients, and keeping your current clients happy.
[9:07] Jim talks about some of the benefits of focusing on your current customers, and how to reach out and inform customers of all the different ways you can help them. It is worth exploring the value within your current client base, by creating and maintaining strong relationships with them.
[14:14] It’s ten times more expensive to acquire a new customer than it is to keep a customer. If you make your customers feel valuable, they will also likely be more inclined to share your information with others.
[15:42] How can you continue to engage customers you already have, and deepen the repeat business? Jim shares several ideas about how you can interact with your customers to see how you can expand your services, and better serve your clients.
[21:05] Small business owners focus on selling more to grow; entrepreneurs are thinking of what different ways they can create and bring in money.
[22:00] It is important to know your customer base, and where the majority of your revenue is coming from. Invest in them the same way they invest in you!
[27:24] What can a simple mindset shift do to help make a huge difference in your profit?
[28:28] What is next in Jim’s dream business, and how might his ideas, books, and events benefit the growth of your business?

[6:37] Melanie shares some of the triggers she sees in her colleagues and clients, and her own journey, of when it might be time to reevaluate some aspects of priority management.
[7:25] Start here: reevaluate your definition of success, and at what point you feel satisfied with your success. Whatever your definition, there should be a balance between what you do to achieve success, and recognizing that you need to take care of yourself while doing so.
[10:33] How can you integrate your drive and passion with very practical steps, to let your priorities dictate your success? Be intentional about the things you agree to do.
[12:20] Step one: know your core values. What do you value about success?
[13:01] Step two: what are the burning priorities? Work to integrate your values and priorities.
[14:18] Step three: learn to say no with grace. You have to know when to say no to things that aren’t aligned with your priorities.
[16:25] Step four: build up your boundaries. Keep the negativity and distractions away, so you can stay focused.
[17:28] Step five: create a high-payoff-opportunity filter. Create a boundary system that will help you say yes to the right things!
