Your Business Needs a Purpose

There’s been a recent shift away from a complete separation of business and purpose.

This shift is due to the fact that more and more consumers are choosing to give their money to brands and companies with missions or beliefs that align with their own.

To consumers, why you do what you do is now more important than what you actually do.

In This Episode:

Earth Day is rapidly approaching and, as an environmental activist and non-profit founder, I felt it was important to help you understand how to make your business one that truly matters and connects with your ideal clients and customers on a deeper level.

So, this week, we’re talking about three simple ways to infuse more meaning and purpose into what you do with your business.

[Tweet “To consumers, why you do what you do is now more important than what you actually do.“]

Why You Can Expect:

In this episode, I talk about:

  1. The importance of sharing your why in the form of a Statement of Beliefs
  2. Why you should give first in addition to giving back
  3. How you can give of your time in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming

The Power of Not Scaling!

There’s a lot of focus right now on business growth, diversifying your revenue streams, developing multiple services, programs, and courses, and a lot of other things that sound great in theory, but are not always the best move for your business.

I’m a firm believer in doing one thing so well that you become the go-to expert in your niche for that thing. Once you’ve mastered that one thing, then should you start to consider branching out.

Figure out your signature offer and then take the time to master it.

In This Episode:

Today John Lee Dumas and I are taking about the importance of doing things that don’t scale.

John Lee Dumas is the poster child for mastering one thing. After having conducted over 2,000 interviews for his podcast, Entrepreneurs On Fire, and creating a wildly successful podcast launch program, he’s the go-to podcasting expert.

In fact, this very podcast would’ve have launched if it weren’t for a conversation he and I had during an event in San Diego.

Now, John Lee Dumas is at the point where he can focus more on passion projects thanks to the success he’s seen from sticking to one thing for several years.

[Tweet “Figure out your signature offer and then take the time to master it.“]

Why You Can Expect:

In this episode, John Lee Dumas and I talk about:

  1. The importance of mastering one thing before doing anything else
  2. The various passion projects John Lee Dumas has been able to work on in recent years
  3. Why he decided to change the format of his podcast after 2,000 episodes
  4. Why losing isn’t a bad thing and how he hopes to help people find their one big win
