Whatever Floats Your Boat...The Two Women Who Lost Everything
Which one are you? Two women. Same layoff. Same day. Different outcomes. Woman A had been planning her business for eight months. Perfect brand. Beautiful website. Complex funnel. Launch sequence ready. Email list of 47 people. Zero revenue. The day she got laid off, she had a business plan but no boat. Woman B had been selling one simple offer for six weeks. A $97 audit using a skill she already had. Ugly Google Doc. PayPal link. No website. Email list of 12 people. She had made $1,164. The day she got laid off, she had a boat that floated. Woman A spent the next three months finishing her perfect launch. Woman B spent the next three months selling her ugly offer and made $4,200 while looking for her next job. Both women are fine now. But only one of them stayed calm. Here is what I have learned about lifeboat businesses: A raft that floats beats a yacht under construction. Speed to first dollar matters more than perfection. One clear offer beats ten half-built ideas. Sold income beats planned income. Three questions for you are... 1. If your main income disappeared tomorrow, do you have a paid offer you could sell this week? Not "could create." Not "plan to build." Could sell. Today. With what you have right now. 2. What is stopping you from testing one simple paid offer in the next seven days? Not launching a business. Not building a brand. Just selling one thing to one person to prove the boat floats. 3. Are you building a yacht or a raft? Both are fine. But if you do not have a raft yet, the yacht does not matter. Drop your answers below. Or just tell me: do you have a raft that floats? Just say... I have a raft that floats or doesn't float... If it doesn't float... what do you need to accomplish so you have... In my best 90's voice... Whatever floats your boat. Comment below

I have been woman A for long enough. I have an idea now to start charging a small consultancy fee for all the apps I am testing. In the Women Build AI Skool, which is where I met @Vickie Helm , we had a buildathon and so there are alot of women asking for beta testers for their apps. I also built a tool that analyzes user feedback and creates an insight brief so that founders can make informed decisions on how to improve their apps. I have that on a freemium model right now. I am creating a web scraper tool that will help me find qualified leads that I can send outreach messages to via LinkedIn. I am inflating the life boat!

Hi Ladies, Donna and I are wondering if you would be willing to look over our marketing 1 sheet before we send it to the printer? Is it clear? If you were dealing with caregiving now would you be intrigued? A change I will make is to make the link at the bottom go to our Scorecard caregiving assessment 1st versus our groups. Thanks for helping out!

The "created by professionals" section needs to be left justified. It looks like you tried to center it like the rest of the text, but because of the font size, it looks right justified and off-center. That is more nit-picky, but overall the font size and colors are good and I did not notice any typos

I was able to do the exercise during the call and it was so helpful and thought-provoking. I feel more confident knowing that I am not alone and that I am on the right path to continue building my business.
