And now your host, Chris Anderson. Grow and elevate our businesses, and now your host, Chris Anderson.

Speaker 2: 0:25

Welcome back to another recording of the Elevate Media Podcast. I'm Chris Anderson, your host. Today. We're going to be diving into how we can make sure that the actions we're taking each day to grow our businesses actually grow our business and that they're aligned for acceleration. And we brought on another expert to talk about that. She's the CEO and head of strategic partnerships at Revampologist. She is also a business advisor, so we've got Corrine Walsh on the show. Corrine, welcome to the Elevate Media Podcast today.

Speaker 3: 0:57

Thank you, chris, so great to be here.

Speaker 2: 0:59

Absolutely Looking forward to diving into this topic, so we'll get right into it. Yeah, why is having our actions aligned in business so important for business growth?

Speaker 3: 1:12

Yeah, so alignment comes in several different ways right. There's the aligned stance you have as you lead your business right, and then there's the alignment of the actions that follow against the strategy that you're setting right.

Speaker 3: 1:26

But most of the time we are in a scramble of just trying to get so much done in order to, like I said, run a busyness versus a business, which is one of my favorite things right To help clean up, because I did it myself for many years where I was, you know, sitting in the doing so much and then I realized, you know, we got to just lead better and be a little bit more conscious about what are we going after and making sure that everyone's aligned and in lock step to stepping forward. But that's not always possible, right, we need to have the practices in place to set ourselves up for determining what aligned means. So sometimes, when you use that word, chris, I'm curious for you too, like when you hear that word, what comes up to you when you hear the word aligned, because a lot of people even get confused about that.

Speaker 2: 2:17

Yeah, you know, what comes to me is just like the flow. The pipeline is there, so what you're doing is flowing right into the next thing which flows. You know where it needs to actually get to and do.

Speaker 3: 2:27

Yeah, so flow is such a great word. In order to have flow, there has to be a high level of communication. The action steps of what the handoff process is, from start to finish, needs to be known. But most of all, I think too, is the ability to respond with ease when it doesn't go well.

Speaker 3: 2:47

Like that is one of the things that I think aligned practices really defined, or an aligned stance defines that we don't do enough questioning around is this actually the right way to do it, the best way to do it, the most efficient way to do it? Can it be done better way to do it? The best way to do it? The most efficient way to do it? Can it be done better? And do kind of the continuous improvement process to really step into alignment and the reason why that accelerates your growth, like the ability to pause, check in and say, hey, what's been going really well.

Speaker 3: 3:17

So I have this retrospective exercise that helps my clients step into aligned action. It also helped me build my multiple seven figure businesses and like scale past myself is because I constantly use this and put it into check, which is the thing I want to share with your viewers and listeners today, because it's really simple but it helps you step into aligned action. So it's four steps and the first one is what's going really well. So what we also don't do enough as overachievers are just the people who are outliers trying to put ourselves out there to build business, because it's all a choice Right.

Speaker 2: 3:55

Right.

Speaker 3: 3:55

We don't celebrate enough and we don't ask ourselves, like what's going really well? Yeah, so that's the first question and you just want to spend time. Whether you're doing this for yourself, if you're a solopreneur, just kind of transitioning into working for yourself, this is really helpful to keep yourself aligned, because there's so much you have to do. But also do this with your team so that everybody is answering it. If you've scaled past yourself and now you have a team, what is going really well and hear each other out on that, because these are the things you want to continue doing. If it's going well, let's keep it running.

Speaker 3: 4:31

But when you ask that question first, it also puts you in a higher energy. You're like actually it's not all hard, we are doing things really well, we celebrate. So that the second question you ask yourself, which is what are the things we need to stop doing? It gets a little bit more of a focused energy coming from what's going really well to now, like these are the things that are distracting us, or these are the things holding us back, or these are the places we're spending time where it actually needs to navigate different for us to actually go after this goal or achieve this thing. So that's. The second question is to spend time on. What do we need to stop doing, and especially as an individual, when you do it on yourself, a lot of my clients or the people I run this for free every month with a group too, where it's basically they sit in there like I got to stop procrastinating, it's like the number one thing, because you have to step into action if you want the results you're looking for.

Speaker 3: 5:28

And then the third question is what do we need to start doing? So the start doing allows you to then pause and think about okay, well, we've done this really well, we need to stop doing this. Sometimes, the stop doing list gives us permission to create room for what we need to start doing in order to inch us towards that goal. And then the fourth step after you take some time answering that is to decide on the one thing that you're going to focus on for the next 30 days or whatever the timeframe is, before you check in again and that really helps you step into aligned action.

Speaker 2: 6:01

Yeah, I like that because you know if you can be honest with yourself and say, okay, this isn't working or this is detracting, we need to stop doing these things and start doing this instead. And then picking the one, because I feel like, at least from my perspective, if we have so many things we need to do, we don't do anything sometimes or we have a slower start. So, picking that one thing, um, and kind of running with that first, uh, we'll help you, at the end of the day, get more done, because you're actually getting things done quicker by picking that one thing. How do you, how do you, um you guide people in picking that one thing? What do they need to do when they realize, hey, we need to start maybe these four things?

Speaker 3: 6:47

Yep.

Speaker 1: 6:47

How do they?

Speaker 3: 6:47

pick the one to start on. I like to do the thing that moves the needle the furthest, fastest. So sometimes, for example, I remember when I was working on a book of mine, like one of the books I released, and I used this exercise to make sure I kept on task, actually getting it done, because you can have these aspirational goals and they can never happen If you. For me, I have to have it like formatted and like see that, okay, this is the small action I can take right now, like what's the thing out of this huge goal, right, or whether it was even earning, you know, building my seven figure business, like I use this exact tactic.

Speaker 3: 7:19

I did it every week. Most people do it every 30 days, but I did it to myself every week because I really wanted to make sure that the following week was in action.

Speaker 3: 7:27

Right, but you can imagine the task list Right or the things to start doing could be immense. So I always like to use the lens of what is the thing out of these four things, because you said four things. What is the one thing that, if I, if I just focus on this for this next timeframe, it actually moves everything further, faster. I try to get the highest weighted one. Sometimes it can also feel like the most challenging one, because it is the rock that has to move so that the water can flow right, and that is what I always recommend.

Speaker 3: 8:02

Sometimes, if you're with a team, there are multiple things. Everybody's taking an individual action, right, so you can actually get multiple things done, but you're all now determining who's the owner of that action and going to lead that forward and make sure that that gets done too. So you can have parallel things running. But as an individual, the thing you assign yourself that one thing, and then, as soon as that one thing's done and most of the time, I'll tell you, when you concentrate on the one thing, it actually happens quite faster than you would imagine. If you start to do four things you know and then you just pick the next one off the list. It's there for you, right? Yeah?

Speaker 2: 8:39

What would be some things that you would maybe be like red flags or things that could say, hey, we're not, our action is not aligned with our, you know, the growth we want. What are some things that might show themselves to say, hey, we need to take a second look at this yeah, I mean, that's the beauty of asking.

Speaker 3: 8:58

The stop doing question is because it starts to create a list of wow. That that's why right.

Speaker 3: 9:05

Like that's why we're not seeing the results, or we kept hitting a wall trying to do this one thing. It's not working, Like can we please take permission to stop it? So the red flags to me are the items that are not allowing you to move forward right, Like it's the things that are really halting you but yet have attachment to letting it go. That is really stopping you from moving forward in an aligned way. It, literally the visual I have, is like an anchor right, like it really is stopping you from that forward motion.

Speaker 3: 9:42

Those are the things you want to look at. So it could literally be you're selling an item or you're selling a service and no one's buying it, but you're still focusing on on selling it. Yeah, Something's got a tweak there, right?

Speaker 2: 9:55

You'd notice. You would notice something as a tweak, or you need to follow up, or you need to look at this. What do we need to stop list, because maybe you're not getting the sales or the revenue that you're wanting? Is that kind of something that could? Yeah and so like right.

Speaker 3: 10:07

So let's say, for example, because some of some of your listeners might need this type of support yeah let's say, you've designed something like so beautiful, it's a service that you know you are so good at and you, you have this amazing offer, but no one's buying it. Yeah, different things have to be realigned in order for the purchases to happen, and the things to look at would be are you really clear on who the ideal buyer is of that offer? Is it priced in a price point that that ideal client would actually invest in? Have you done the comparative analysis for it? Is the offer inclusive of the results that actually, um are needed in order for them to move on right?

Speaker 3: 10:51

So if we did this retrospective and it was about 30 days where you were trying to sell this offer and you had no buy buyers for it, the stop thing that might show up is you know, stop selling this offer, as is like read, then the start doing could be redefine the offer to attract the ideal client, because a lot of the time and I'm sure you've seen this, chris, or even faced it yourself where it's like we as creators love to create and we really forget that the receiver on the other side of what we're creating is coming from a decision matrix that is unique to them that, if we don't design. Design what we're offering for them to have an easy yes to it, we definitely will hit walls and trying to sell, you know, to our clients like, sell and and put our amazing work, our creations, out there.

Speaker 2: 11:45

Right, yeah, I think, and sometimes it is kind of letting go of what we want and building it for more of who we're trying to help. It's hard, yeah, we forget to look at that from that perspective and it's sometimes humbling and sometimes it's like gut check, like oh yeah, you know I was wrong, or my great idea wasn't so great, and it is a great idea. It just a little bit yeah.

Speaker 3: 12:13

Yeah, it just needs refinement on who it's for. And then you start to think about OK, if that person was buying this from me, what do they need to hear? Yeah, what, what is it that I actually need to offer them that they would say yes to? Because creators are amazing. Uh, coming up with what's next. Like I'm an amazing visionary, I can come up with so much, what's next, what's next?

Speaker 3: 12:34

but for the longest time in my business I was not thinking about who it was for. Then I would wonder like why didn't this thing sell? It's amazing, you know. It's like. Oh well, I forgot to actually speak to the person that I wanted to buy and validate that they wanted it. I just was coming up with things because I saw a gap. I'm solution-oriented.

Speaker 3: 12:53

And it's so common in entrepreneurship. It's also why I created this quiz called the CEO Conundrum, because the creator CEO is an acronym creator, entrepreneur and operator, and the creator is the one that comes up with the what.

Speaker 3: 13:10

The entrepreneur is the one that sells it, basically the one that loves to be in the money side, loves to make it a deal, put it out there, engage with the clients, that kind of thing and the operator is the one that actually gets it done, like the how part of it. Right, and we tend to lean into one of those three things, but when we're solopreneurs we have to do all three and so we muddy the clarity we need to step into aligned action because we're trying to do all the roles but most of all, um knowing that all three need to exist if you're going to do it all yourself, which I don't recommend. I did it for many years until I got out of my own way and I clarified where I want to play the most out of those three roles in my business so that I could delegate and build the right expertise under me to do what they're good at and scale past myself.

Speaker 2: 14:04

But the stuckness is common, you know yeah, for sure, and I think that's important to remember. Like we can't do it all, because you know we all start, you know, starting by ourselves for the most part. You know opener, uh, wearing all the hats, um, and that's you know something I had to learn, like and realize early on.

Speaker 2: 14:22

I was like I can't, I can't scale to the level the elevate needs to be at by myself, right, because I'm not good enough at certain things, and so it was a choice that we made early on, like find the person that's good at it yeah, revenue profit, like we're not going to have as bigger profit margins because I'm going to expand the team first right and when we're going to, you know, because that's the only way to build that foundation, to be able to, to be able to scale and grow past. That. That's right. And if someone is out there, you know, solopreneur wearing multiple hats.

Speaker 2: 14:55

I know you talked about kind of picking where you're strongest yeah how can they still be aligned wearing each of those hats focusing on their, your you know that main focus? How can they still be aligned having to do all three of those?

Speaker 3: 15:10

Yeah, I think it has to do with patience was the first word that came to mind with yourself knowing that you are one person trying to do three distinct roles in your business, and then you have to get hyper organized, knowing that all of those jobs have to happen, all those tasks have to happen. So the way I did it because I was definitely a solopreneur for a very long time I would dedicate, I would time block like. The exercise I would use would be time blocking to be like okay, this is the window for sales and this is the window you know to operate. This is the window to execute, this is the window you know to operate. This is the window to execute, this is the window to create something new. Generally, though, the creation side would have to go in phases, like every 90 days minimum, maximum, because, as someone who's doing all the roles, you need to see your creation come to fruition, which requires the other two roles to be in play right, and if you don't give the other two roles enough time to fully bake what you're trying to put out there, then you really don't have a model, a proven model as to what business you're in. So if I were to give the time blocking like a framework.

Speaker 3: 16:27

It's definitely in the beginning, when you're launching something new, like all roles are kind of needed to get your product or service out there, and then you want to limit creation of something new until you've maximized what you've already created and proven that other things are needed from you in the market by the clients that you're attracted in.

Speaker 3: 16:48

So then what that looks like is the entrepreneur role and the operator role are the two roles that are more in play for your aligned actions. For that, let's say, 90-day window and then allow yourself creation time every 90 days around the what's next. But I'll tell you the biggest challenge is because most people who go into entrepreneurship or solopreneurship are creators. They like to do things different. They're more outliers. In my quiz, I think my results are like 85% of the people take it are creators, and then the other percentages fall into entrepreneur and operator. For because it's really about that new next thing, right, like it's that exciting visionary role it's. You know why you went into entrepreneurship to begin with? Because you saw that there's a different way to do something than being employed by others who had a specific way of putting it out there, right?

Speaker 2: 17:41

Yeah, and I think what you mentioned there, the time blocking was huge. And you know when I was, you know, on my own, when I first started it, like time blocking was so crucial and you know as how to podcast things like that thrown in there and content creation now with social media like down, like yeah. So time blocking is huge because if you don't know, if you don't, if you don't schedule your time, if you don't control your time, it'll just vanish on you, just kind of like your finances as well. Like if you don't, you know, have control of that and know where it's going, it's just going to disappear.

Speaker 2: 18:13

And so, yeah, I think time blocking, especially when you're wearing so many hats, is so, so crucial. I still use time blocking with some things. Oh yeah, for sure it's such a crucial tool um to be able to know, and sticking with it sometimes can be the hardest.

Speaker 3: 18:27

Because yeah, yeah your discipline is so needed, especially if you're a creator. Um, to be disciplined about the operational thing, because I I remember when I was finding where my time was being spent, that would draw down my energy, like you can tell energetically, like, oh, like I gotta do invoicing.

Speaker 3: 18:47

I gotta draft this contract and I gotta follow up, like be collections, Like those things are operator role thing and the operator role things were the things that I, I was just like get me out of this. Like I, I yes, I know how to do it, but I shouldn't do it. And then so when I decided to stop shooting all over myself, right Like I started to design the job descriptions of who to hire next, based on the things that made me feel down in my energy but had to be done in my business, right, so the discipline does matter because I would not have had a business if I didn't every Friday run invoicing, go collect payments, like make sure contracts were signed.

Speaker 3: 19:28

But at least time blocking it made me feel that it was temporary, it was just that short period of time Like I didn't sit in avoidance. If you sit in avoidance in building or running your business, you will definitely feel drained and not accomplish your goals because, um, you're in that avoidant energy right.

Speaker 2: 19:52

So discipline matters with that time blocking for sure yeah, and I think with that too, like, especially when I first started, I thought everything had to be done right then, right in a moment. If I got an email or something, like I had to respond right then and get it done, and so, like, being able to time block like this is when I'm gonna sit down and respond to emails, or this is when I'm gonna, like you said, send invoices or contracts uh, like allowed me to take a breath doing that instead of just constantly being responsive, and reactive, reactionary yeah you know, when you start now, you're saying man, if I don't do this right now, I'm not gonna get the, I'm gonna lose it, like exactly yeah, yeah, and I still

Speaker 3: 20:34

have I still think I have trigger habits oh yeah, for sure, let me just just only only I think, but honestly though, chris, I think it's just because memory, like if I don't do it now, I will forget. So two things happen it's either I stick it on my calendar and do it at this time, or I keep that email or message like unread.

Speaker 3: 20:56

Like there's so many habits, but that's the thing Like. In order to accelerate your growth, too, you have to know how you best perform, and that's why you know checking in on yourself. You know, using the retrospective exercise to be like this is how I'm acting in my business. This is how I need to act, going forward to make it even better, to make it more exciting, to make it. You know, something that I want to show up for to make it.

Speaker 2: 21:24

You know something that I want to show up for. Yeah, you know, yeah, man, talk about the, the emails, so many unread emails, because I'll go and read them and I'm like I can't respond to this now or don't have time to, you know, respond correctly, so I'll go back and and select unread so when I do have time to sit on the emails, I can actually go back through them. And then the biggest thing for me was emails that you know, I think just think just recently, I don't know why that I finally got into the habit of doing is scheduling out emails Like yeah, the functionality wasn't there for a while, Like that's so new yeah.

Speaker 2: 21:52

Like I have two young kids so a lot. Sometimes I'll do that like after they go to bed or something, and it's probably too late to send an email and so I'll just respond. But I'll schedule it out to go, like the next day at a certain time or like and it has been a game changer, it's huge to be able to do that yeah, yeah, because you don't want to set the precedence for your team if you're emailing them or your clients that you're going to be available at all times.

Speaker 3: 22:17

Scheduling function is so critical to stay within the boundaries of operation but help you stay productive. Yeah, I get that I totally get that because you have to do it in the windows when you can, especially if you have kids yeah, for sure.

Speaker 2: 22:29

So, and that's another thing too like if, like, having kids are under responsibility, so, like I coach soccer as well here locally um, you just have to really have time management, something you really have to learn and get better at and discipline, like you mentioned. Uh, those are. I think those are crucial for any really successful entrepreneur. I mean, I'm sure you could do it without it, but it's a lot harder, I don't think you can honestly, because time is only because we all have the same 24 hours a day.

Speaker 3: 22:59

Yeah, um, those who have an appreciation for the time that they have to maximize what they can do. You know most high net worth individuals out there I mean, they've run studies on this too is because they are. They live by their calendar Like they show up and are super disciplined by what's on there and their life and their business is outlined on there. So that also can keep them relational right, because you can easily get so caught up in all the have to list you forget why you're doing it all. You forget the enjoyment of the life you've built for it, like there's there. It should not be a trade-off. It needs to be integrated into how you show up in all of it.

Speaker 2: 23:44

Yeah, and that's like something too, when I first started and I think there's seasons for everything, so when I first started, like having fun, doing anything that was fun or enjoyable, like just didn't happen, you know, I just I didn't. Now it's like the point. I was like, like I'm building this to, to be able to enjoy life some. I'm not on vacation 24-7 and traveling to Tahiti every other month or something like that, but being able to take a day or two and just go hiking or go out, take the kids, something like that, to enjoy the moments. That's why we're doing this right.

Speaker 1: 24:21

That's a choice, you know.

Speaker 2: 24:22

That's why we're doing this Right and so for the choice, or yeah, and you know, I just had an episode where we recorded um previously it was another gentleman and he was talking about like celebrating the wins too. I think that's something else to keep us aligned with. What we're doing is, you know, actually focusing even a small amount of time on the wins you've had along the way, cause we get so goal focused on the next goal, we forget where we've come and what we've accomplished, and so I think celebrating those wins and and taking time for yourself is huge yeah, I think there's a big, you know, an over.

Speaker 3: 24:54

I call it the overachievers. Dilemma is that we, we sit in an energy of, of not enough, like it's never enough. It's that, what's that or the what's next like did that, done that, what's next?

Speaker 3: 25:05

and I definitely had years like when I when I would accomplish the things I set out to and like record time. But I'd be like next, you know, there was no. It's very hard for me and for overachievers to celebrate because we thrive in the journey of achievement, right. So I had to learn what actually fills me up to realize that the achievement has to meet that need, right, meet the fulfillment need, not just check things off.

Speaker 3: 25:36

A list Like that became very antiquated and like unfulfilling for me. So that was a big shift. You know it was like okay, well, what fills me up? And then why do I want to show up in this all? And I'll tell you. You know I've made choices business wise that fuel my life, not so much just to cross things off a list like one, one of the services I offer. I could literally scale that business if I wanted to, with the relationships I have to. You know, a nine, 10 figure business if I wanted to. Like I do not, because I know that the life that that would lead to would not be fulfilling for me.

Speaker 2: 26:14

Right.

Speaker 3: 26:14

So, yes, would there be money in the bank? Sure, but would I feel good about it? No, because it's not necessarily where I want to be spending my time, and those are the trade-offs we're allowed to do in entrepreneurship. That is why I went into it. I like to choose how I spend my time and what I get to produce and put out into the world, and less so about the social demands or the achievement demands that send to be out there.

Speaker 2: 26:41

Yeah, I'm kind of like you on that. I didn't like people telling me what my time was worth or what I could do with my time, and so that was kind of one of the final straws for me. But yeah, and you know, I sat the other day just in the living room you know we recording this close to Christmas and we had a Christmas lights up. Kids were just playing. I just sat there, I was this is, this is what you know. I can sit here and enjoy this like this is. You know we're three years in elevates, three years old, amazing, and like I get to enjoy this moment like I wouldn't most and it was like I think it was like early afternoon or something. I could be at a job, like I might not even like I have this moment because of this, no matter how hard the ups and downs, like this right here is worth it.

Speaker 1: 27:26

And so, like just that step moment, you find what fills you up. Yeah, Gratitude. Yeah.

Speaker 2: 27:31

So, yeah, I think, finding the alignment, I think, and I love you know what are we doing good, what are we, what do we need to stop, you know what do we need to start, and then what's that one thing that we're going to actually do I think is so crucial and a great. You know probably how often would you recommend people doing that those four things?

Speaker 3: 27:48

quarterly, I would say every 30 days, if you're really you know, only be you could.

Speaker 3: 27:53

You could do it quarterly, like as your team or you do, you know um, just for like strategic goals. But I would think, if you really want traction, weekly is even healthy too, if you're really trying to put something out there, but no more than 30 days at a time. So I offer this every month as I facilitate it for whoever wants to join my call, because I know the alignment it gives you. But then you get the live coaching too if you're feeling stuck in any way and I've seen those who who join in a a cyclical way every 30 days, their traction goes further because they just did a quick pause.

Speaker 3: 28:30

I mean you could do this exercise in less than 15 minutes yeah and really then be like okay, so next week I'm starting with this nice um, or sometimes you get the result of just stay the course.

Speaker 2: 28:39

Yeah.

Speaker 3: 28:40

Do it again for another 30 days. Whatever we've been doing, stay the course, you know.

Speaker 2: 28:44
