When thinking about the kind of business you want to setup, it has to work for YOU. Nobody else. YOU.
Yes, you have customers or clients that you are there to serve and there are many ways in which you can do that. But if you want to be in the business game for a long time, it has to be a model that works for you. So, you get to choose how you best serve your customers and clients needs in a way that works for you.
Recently I set up this new service, Progress My Career, helping people make a fundamental career change and ultimately setup their own business if they wanted to. There are online courses, virtual coaching and group sessions. It’s been intense learning, a lot of fun, and some frustrating moments too. But it enables me to live life on my terms – it works for me, and for my family.
I also continue to deliver leadership development programmes with my associates, real time, in the ‘classroom’. I love the interactions we have as a group. It’s dynamic, challenging and I always learn something from the experience. This works for me too.
So, I have a business model that blends online and offline, that works for me. And you want a business model that works for YOU too.
There is so much information ‘out there’, so many fads and trends about how you should have this, you should have that. You should have many marketing funnels, online chatbots etc. But you don’t have to use these business models – it has to be one that works for YOU.
You are in this for the long haul, wanting success and this is only going to come from having something that truly works for you. It can be a blended business model, similar to mine, but ultimately it needs to work for you.
So, spend some time thinking about how you would like that to be. How do you want to live your life 3-5yrs from now? 10 yrs? Maybe longer.
It may be that the life you want to lead requires you to learn new ways of doing things. Work towards this, don’t use this as an excuse to shy away from this way of doing things. It’s by learning that we come to realise what works for us.
What business do you want to be in? Where’s the sweet spot for you where your strengths, talents and energy reside?
With a clear idea of your business sweet spot, a business model that works for you and gives you the freedom and at the same time the interactions you want, you are well on your way to designing the life of your dreams.
