The past 11 years have been more ease than the past three months for many of us. I’ve got some tips for sustaining and thriving during shifts.
Climate and Market update and covno the first 10 mins… stuff most business owners aren’t sharing – because they might be scared or ashamed. Market shifts happen!!! We just haven’t seen one like this online in a long time.
At 10 mns, I jump into tips for business owners in a shift.
Time to put on your intentional and PRO business pants.
Fundamentals
Chop wood, carry water.
Be intentional.
Be relational.
One sale will require way more time on task than you are used to.
Take care of your fearful parts. Build your internal and external skills.
Let me know in the comments or private message of you are feeling the shift? Nothing to be ashamed of. Just something to accept and adapt to as a business owner.

Great perspective – thx, Allison!
Strategic not scarcity. Huge. Bc ppl be maki g you think you are in scarcity when you are not – it’s called smart.
M Shannon Hernandez exactly.
M Shannon Hernandez that positivity gaslighting is real.
Yaaasssss. Stop the crappy one liners that are only half truths.
I skipped two launches last year for personal reasons, which will definitely adjust planned projections but my recent launch was definitely lower conversions than usual.
I attributed it to an increase in my price points, but the increase was super minimal. I’ll be doing another launch in the coming months and am curious to see how it goes, but I’m diversifying my revenue streams just in case conversions are lower than expected again.
Megan Hale thanks for sharing openly. You aren’t alone.
Allison Crow oh, yes. Everyone who went through my launch process rode the wave with me as I pivoted and was like “okay, here’s what you do when a launch is lower than you expected”.
Onward we go
Megan Hale and yes to diversifying offerings.
I love you. I am going to start talking about this too as soon as I return home.
Love this focus on fundamentals!!
Megan Hale no 3pointers!!!
Allison Crow no 3 pointers!
This reminds me of the breath. Businesses expand and contract. There are cycles and seasons and the online world is TERRIBLE about everything being just an upward trajectory of growth. It doesn’t work that way!
Megan Hale exactly. I’m not seeing reasonable reality and wise leadership around this. Perhaps it’s happening in private but I think it’s a needed convo. Thanks for contributing.
Yes to connections and relationships it is so foundational for business and will always beat out any trend or market shift. We navigate hard shit together!
You achieved your sucess by making some mistakes. Then you implimented systems. Guess what! It’s time to make some more mistakes. Embrace them. I have found in business, there is no status quo. You are either going up or you are going down. My 2 cents worth.
Listen
Lucky the person who sees it ! Be WISE not afraid
My sister was dying and dialed back like you, followed by a health challenge. I also went through serious market shifts. All of this speaks to me and confirms what I have been hearing in quiet conversations. Strategy is vitally important during these times
Master and connect with the basics
“Just let people be in your energy and they will buy” No
Amen. Being smart and intentional isn’t caving to scarcity mindset
Making changes myself
Thank you for this candor
Jen Grosso thank you for your solidarity. The online coaching world can be so misleading and I think we need each other to be real!
