How Successful Business Owners Start Their Day: Business Owner Success Trait 1

How successful business owners start their day matters, a lot!

If you can imagine being a caveman or a cave woman for a moment, living by the sea.

You have no technology, no supermarkets, nothing to do all day except survive, catch food and eat it.

What a simple life.

Business Owner Success TraitsHowever, when all you have to do is to catch food for your main daily chore, which is quite important to your Bee Gee needs, also known as ‘staying alive’, when do you think you would set out to go and catch those fish?

Would you wake up, dust off your cave door mat, sit outside and soak up the morning sun, drink some cave puddle water, maybe have a little snooze, then around 5pm in the afternoon set off to try and catch some fish?

Or would you wake up and head out first thing and set out to catch your fish knowing that you could then relax for the remainder of the day because you have provided the food that you and your family need to eat well?

It would be the latter wouldn’t it?

One of my neighbours had a holiday home in Thailand and every day a woman would come onto the beach selling homemade breads or cookies.

He would watch her walk up and down the beach all day until she had sold every last item, then she would disappear and not be seen again until the next day.

My neighbour was intrigued and asked her one day why she didn’t come back to sell more of her breads and cookies.

“I don’t need to”, she replied. “Once I have sold my tray of goods, I know that I have enough money to feed my family, so I go home for the remainder of the day.”

She was happy selling just enough to feed her family and didn’t feel the need to sell anymore.

My neighbour, being a businessman, couldn’t understand why she didn’t want to maximise her income and profits, but she was happy as she was.

The key point was the time of day that she went out to sell her goods; first thing in the morning.

The sooner she got out selling her products, the bigger her chances of selling out of them which provided the income she needed for her family that day.

So, you now have a cavemen and the beach seller in Thailand doing their most important task for the day first thing every, single, day.

Why is it then that so many business owners who ‘claim’ to want more clients and more profits don’t work on the marketing and growth of their business first thing every day?

Why is it that many business owners never work on the growth of their business, yet constantly bemoan the fact that they need more money?

Successful business owners work on the growth of their business first thing in the morning at least three out of their five working days every week, but preferably five days each week.

My advice to all of my consultancy clients and ‘More Clients Academy’ members is to spend at least 30 minutes of every day working on the marketing of their business.

These 30 minutes must take place before any email/social media checking so that the mind is completely clear of ‘anyone else’s call on your time’ and you are refreshed and raring to go.

If you spend 30 minutes every day working on the marketing of your business, that is 2.5 hours per week.

When you multiply that by 46 weeks of the year to allow for holidays, that is 115 hours or based on a 7-hour working day 16.42 days working on the marketing of your business.

Let me ask you a question, if I may?

If you spent 16 days working on the growth of your business, do you think that there is a chance you would get something right and win some more clients?

I know that it will, so I beg you not to check emails or social media first thing every day.

Everything can wait until you have worked on the growth of your business. You know this is true because when you do go on holiday, or go into a meeting first thing in the morning, your business is still there when you return.

Do this every day, work through the training in The More Clients Academy, then, and only then, check other people’s ‘To Do List’ for your time.

Put yourself first every day and your business will grow.

Business Success Trait 1:

Successful business owners start their day by working on the growth of their business. They do not check social media or their email until they have done this. Ever!

How To Get Clients Fast

Why Me?

  • I focus on marketing that brings clients to you when they are ready to buy your services (easy life marketing I like to call it).
  • I ensure that every penny you spend on marketing creates a return on investment for you. Vanity marketing does not pay your bills, so I won’t let you do it.
  • I have been marketing service businesses since 1991.

“Before we started working with Nick, we had no clear idea of our paid traffic strategy.

We knew there were people looking for what we offer, but we just weren’t getting them landing on our website, and when they did, they weren’t converting in the way we wanted them to.

That’s when we enlisted Nick’s help, and it’s made a profound difference both to the number of leads coming into the business, but the quality too.

He’s helped us bring in several very high-quality leads, which will be worth many hundreds of thousands of pounds, as well as helping our website become better and more conversion-focused too.

I couldn’t recommend Nick more highly – if you’re looking for more leads and more sales, it’s a no-brainer to have a conversation.

Elliott Myatt, Play Area Hygiene Services, Kingsbridge.

“I run an HR business dealing with the nasty bits of HR (disciplinaries, grievances, terminations, etc). I have been working with Nick for 12 months now and it has really changed the quality of leads I am getting. My website is now attracting the right type of clients and brings in a lot more quality, and easy to convert, leads. Nick is clear in what the marketing priorities are to get me the results I want. Very easy to work with and cuts to the heart of the matter – no excuses!”

Carolyne Wahlen, GAP HR Services, Goring

“After working with Nick on our Google My Business strategy we are now ranking in the “Google 3 pack” and generating leads purely from our ranking!Nick also carried out a fee review resulting in a fee increase of 40% and no detrimental effect to volume. Double whammy with increased leads and increased income. Well worth taking the time to talk to Nick and definitely worth working with him going forward, it’s a no brainer!”

David Aggiss, Three Sixty Mortgages, Plymouth.

“Nick’s advice and guidance has been excellent. He cuts through all the noise and brings clarity. His focus is on what is effective and what will achieve the objective. He knows what works and what doesn’t and shows you the best way to approach a strategy.

One particular aspect of marketing was hard to get my head around but Nick made everything so clear and easy to understand. When you speak to him you will see, he knows his stuff!

Thanks Nick.”

Shan Phoenix, Geneva Wealth, Harpenden

Before meeting Nick, I was wasting money with Google, I had a high price per click and a trickle of leads. Now, having worked with Nick for 3 months my Google business page is optimised, my price per click is greatly reduced, customers are finding me and quality leads are flowing! Which means, my Google Ads spend is now profitable with a 3:1 return!

That is why I would strongly recommend working with Nick if you want consistent leads and a greater return on your investment – thanks Nick”.

Richard Linden, The Rent Guarantee Company, Harlow.

“Through Nick’s advice and on going encouragement I have almost doubled my client base and am now looking to take on members of staff to deal with the increase in demand for my services. My success has been in no small way facilitated by my business coaching with Nick. I would, and I do, recommend him to anyone who wants to grow their business.”

Ben Winter, Bristol Wellness Personal Training, Bristol.

“I’m new to google Ads, Nick is managing my ad campaigns and doing a great job, I’m receiving a steady flow of leads with a low cost per click meaning my marketing is paying for itself. Would recommend.”

Wendy Clarke

“Nick’s professional advice, expert knowledge and constant encouragement have proved invaluable this past year. He has helped my business from the outset, offering me support and guidance every step of the way. His services come highly recommended.”

Charlotte Laken – Copywriter

“Nick is an excellent marketing consultant. His knowledge of Google PPC is unparalled. Well worth a chat.Every time I use him my results improve and I make money. Do the sensible thing and pick up the phone to him as you won’t regret it.”

Phil O’Connor, Whitewell Financial Planning, Bolton.
