Most people don't go through all the sweat and pain of creating a new business to earn minimum wage. So if you have a dream of earning a living from your own business, what's preventing you from not only having a BIG dream, but of actually achieving that dream?
For most, it's simply a lack of a game plan. I'm going to share 5 steps to creating a 6-7 figure business as a solo-preneur that have worked for me as well as MANY of my colleagues even in the current economy.
1) Identify your ideal income
While I know it can be scary at times, you need to write down exactly what you WANT to bring in to your business. Be as specific as possible and be sure to stretch yourself. If you feel uncomfortable writing the number down then you're on the right track.
2) Identify your "million dollar niche"
Who are they and where do they hang out? Sit down with a piece of paper and describe, in detail, who your ideal client is.
3) Become fluent in your niche's language and identify "Hot Emotional Triggers"
Learn exactly what makes your market tick. What are their greatest wants, needs and desires? What are they talking about? Don't know? Ask them. Send out surveys to your list or get involved in discussion groups.
4) Become the "Go-To" person in your niche
This is actually much easier than you might expect. Remember those "Hot Emotional Triggers?" Learn to effectively satisfy your market's greatest wants, needs and desires in your own unique and genuine way and you'll soon position yourself as the "Go-To" person in your niche.
5) Create programs and products with a beginning, middle, end and intended results
Give your market something that they can sink their teeth into. What can a client expect after working with you or buying your products? Remember, your clients are paying for results; plain and simple, so tell them what they can expect.
