The Multitasking Myth

Ever been guilty of answering text messages during a meeting? Or checking email while you’re on a video call? MOST OF US do it. And if you said yes, who could blame you? Growing and scaling your business comes with a seemingly never ending to-do list. In our minds, it’s simply smart thinking to make the best use of our time, right? When your company is growing fast, we’re forced to find ways to “fit it ALL in”. But here’s something that may shock you… On average, people who try to multitask take 50% longer to complete a single task and make 50% more errors in their work than people who stay focused. Suddenly multitasking doesn’t sound like such a great way to get more done, does it? But, we were brought up believing that in order to be productive we must learn to multitask to reach our goals and get things done… At least I was . Here’s the problem with that… When you are moving the needle on multiple projects at one time instead of focusing on making significant headway on on...

And I’ve yet to come across a training program or course that outlines a  proven formula and step-by-step process  to successfully hiring right-talent for each unique business   out there  (especially for Entrepreneurial-based businesses).  It’s our  Greatest   Entrepreneurial Blind Spot.    As Entrepreneurs, we eventually come to a pivotal point in our business when our sales and marketing will hit a plateau  (or in some cases, take a dive) ,  OR  our sales...

Is your website cutting it?

But in today’s world, the consumer market literally expects it. A whopping 84% of today’s consumer market believe a website makes your business more credible than companies who just only have social media pages. People who can’t find a website for a business will automatically discount it as NOT LEGIT. There is no doubt about it. People are going to check you out to answer this big question in their mind: “Is this person for real?” They’re going to check out your website. They’re going to search for you on Google. They are going to try and find out all the information that they can on you. When they do find you, they will start looking for anything inconsistent ( it’s just human nature) . What we’re ALL looking for is TRUST when we are looking to buy or invest in something important. Like...
