Confidence is built by exhausting mental efforts and resources to still get the job done.
Over the last 2 weeks it feels like, the penny just wasn't dropping. Did i sell put my business to fail at being in corporate like wtf?? surly it would be easier right? No
Being your own boss and controlling the environment is what you are told you can do.
However if your budget is less that 20k a year good luck on hiring cause you will take what you can get,
Same with taking on clients you hate. That is a problem.
Since joining my 9/5 company. I have went a step forward to introduce myself to everyone. I mean everyone I can, show interest in what they do. Why because when you need something last second they will remember you as someone who cared when they expressed what they love.
Intro's fucking matter.
Booking in time with people you don't know or talk to matters.
Booking in meeting with clients you hate matters and if you don't like them, get rid of them or force yourself to connect. Just do it. This will hold you back the biggest.
I have had good news on all front.
13K has been sent out for payment promised. likely comes in now due to start date on policy tomorrow.
I have the 23k now payment approved now just creating a vendor sheet,
66k policy we will give 10% on to make it Jan 31st start, and if any push back we will give an additional health and wellbeing module free as a extra.
So it will be between 46k and 53k.
Family of 5 - that will be a 30k ish still at quote but booking a teams meeting to answer questions and close them there and then.
Overall over 100k in the pipeline and over 40k closed for the month.
Late nights are needed, the less friction you give the easier it is the next day to do reactive because you did 3/4 pro active activities.
