Happy New Year! 🎊

In today’s economy, having an eCommerce business is no longer optional—it’s a smart survival strategy. Rising costs, unstable job markets, and changing consumer habits mean people want convenience, speed, and online access more than ever. eCommerce allows you to sell 24/7, reach customers beyond your local area, and reduce overhead costs compared to physical stores. You’re not limited by location, opening hours, or foot traffic. More importantly, eCommerce gives you data. You can track customer behavior, test pricing, optimize conversions, and scale based on real insights not guesses. Even during economic downturns, online shoppers continue buying essentials, solutions, and value-driven products. Brands that adapt digitally stay visible, flexible, and competitive. Whether you’re building a side income or scaling a full brand, eCommerce creates control, resilience, and long term growth in an unpredictable economy. The earlier you start, the stronger your advantage becomes

@Ashley Kirkwood The pen I got at Speak Your Way to Cash Live is one of the smoothest pens I own. I show it to everyone haha. I have looked for similar pens to give as client gifts, but they are all engraved- yours is printed on. I imagine they also don't have as much weight to them. Seriously, it might seem silly, but I use the heck out of this pen. Thanks for giving such quality swag!! Can you please tell me where to get these so I can elevate my swag game?

CH1; page 39: "When you believe in your offer and see sales as an act of service, you help clients reach their goals. You change their lives in ways you might never fully understand." — Ashley N. Kirkwood, Millions from the Stage "Selling isn't about taking. It's about giving." — Ashley N. Kirkwood, Millions from the Stage My Thoughts: When I read that, this was my thought... As an advocate, I learned to lead with a heart of service—to be the voice for the voiceless. This quote reminds me that selling, when done with integrity, yes, isn’t about taking. It’s about giving value, empowerment, and transformation. Question: What does “sales as an act of service” mean to you?🤔
