MMB Episode 13: Key Tips for Business Growth
After our last episode, I was thinking about tips that we could give you on how to grow your business. Then I realized, why not bring in Christine Jerry to talk with us?
Christine is an expert on business growth, and we are actually clients of hers! So, we know that she knows what she’s talking about.
Let’s dive in for her helpful tips!
Focus On One Area
As a small business owner, it’s easy to get very overwhelmed by everything there is to learn to grow your business and run a successful business.
Don’t worry about learning everything at once. Instead, focus on one thing at a time. Then, once you get that under your belt, move on to learning about something else.
Listen to the podcast to find out how growing a business is like learning to juggle and how to build the all-important foundation of a successful business.
Business Failures
Christine gives examples of failures that she’s had in her business. Y’all, every business is going to have failures, but it’s how you handle those failures and learn from them that makes the difference between a successful business and a failed business.
Listen to how Christine takes her everyday business failures and makes them functional so that she “falls forward” and can move on to continue growing her business.
Keep Learning
Christine also shares some of the best advice she ever got and how she was able to apply it to her business growth. Parker makes a connection between this piece of advice and networking for even greater business success.
It’s so good and not at all what you probably think that tip was!
Family and Friends
This is one topic we really strive for! Christine talks about how family and friends can impact your business and what you need to do to make that impact a positive one for business growth.
In addition, Parker talks about how being an online business person vs a brick and mortar business can help with that impact too – listen here.
Saying No
Y’all, Christine covers a huge issue that makers and business owners who work from home run into. Listen to how saying no became necessary for her and how it helped her with her business growth and productivity.
Stay True To Yourself
Learn how not staying true to yourself can be detrimental to your business and what authenticity brings to any small business.
