Do It Scared
If you feel afraid, do it afraid. If you feel scared, do it scared. If you feel anxious, do it anxious. If you feel nervous, do it nervous. Waiting to feel “Ready” is how people stay stuck for years. Confidence doesn’t come first—Action Does. Clarity doesn’t come first—Movement Does. Most people are sitting around hoping the fear will disappear before they start. It won’t. Fear fades after you move, not before you move. Courage isn’t the absence of fear; it’s choosing to act while it’s there. You’re lying to yourself if you think waiting will fix it. The people who win are not the least afraid. They’re the ones who decided fear was not a stop sign. Do the thing scared. Do it messy. Do it unsure. Action builds confidence. Waiting builds regret.

You will never taste victory if you fear the start. Hesitation is the enemy of success and inaction is the grave of potential.
Zapier
Has anyone had any success with using zapier to set up automations in their business? I’ve been working at it for over 2 weeks now and it’s definitely a learning curve!

@Tim Leary It is definitely something that can take up a lot of your time on a snow day. So far I’ve got it to create deals so when a potential lead calls my virtual business number (whether I answer or not) it sends them the next steps for my lead form. I then have it update the deal in my CRM once the lead has been created and contact is needed. Then it follows through the deal stages of new lead > estimate sent > invoiced/won. Has some bugs I’m currently working on but I feel this is the way forward!

@Anthony Williams my main CRM (Markate) has a lead form that you can route into your website and I’ve had it set that way for 8-10 months. At that time I was sending all leads to my website to fill out the lead form so I’m not manually entering every potential lead.

Voicemail automations to save time and use some Free marketing options- Most CRMS offer this service (Jobber, Markate etc.)

Very nice! I’m trekking down the same path. Do you use jobber’s or markate’s AI assistant for your incoming calls?

@Cory Peebles Do you use any CRM currently in your business? I have 1 part-time employee that helps with the work load aspect, which means I handle everything else. I’ve heard a lot on this group and others use Housecall Pro or Markate - myself the latter. Find one you can implement immediately to buy back your time and your wife’s time.
