How to earn massively more from your business

By Jim Connolly | September 24, 2014

If you would like to earn more, much more, I have some great news for you.

No one undervalues your time or your work, without your full consent.

Think about it:

  1. You set your fees.
  2. You choose your clients.
  3. You pick which end of the marketplace you serve: the fee sensitive middle or the quality driven top.

The reason this is such great news, is that it means you alone control what you earn. Therefore, earning more (or much, much more) is a choice… a choice you can embrace or ignore.

How to earn more

If you’re unhappy about how much you earn, start by deciding how much you want to earn. It isn’t enough for you to say you want to earn more. That’s too vague. So, write down exactly how much you want to earn.

Then, look at those 3 points above and decide which changes you will need to make.

Of course, the tricky part isn’t deciding what you want to earn. That part is easy. You simply look at the lifestyle you want for your family, then work out what you’d need to earn in order to make that happen.

The tricky part

The tricky part is summoning the courage to make the changes required.

It’s far easier to complain, but stay the same. To hope things will just improve. So, that’s what most small business owners do. However, for those with the courage to leave their comfort zone, the possibilities are endless.

The question is, are you happy with more of the same or do you want something immeasurably better? If you want something better, take one step right now, toward making it a reality!
