Have you ever stopped yourself from posting, networking or asking for support… all because of your competitors?

I see this all the time with local business owners. Instead of making decisions based on their best clients, they make decisions based on fear of what their competitors might think, see or copy.

Competitor-based decisions don’t fuel growth. They limit it.

In this episode, I break down the 4 ways competitor-based decision making shows up and how it secretly holds you back from growing.

From pulling back on content, to skipping networking events, to changing your prices or offers just to “keep up,” to even avoiding support and education opportunities - these are the decisions that are keeping you invisible.

I’ll show you how to shift out of this so you can grow your business with confidence faster.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• How focusing on your competitor stops you from marketing, networking, selling and growing
• How to make business decisions based on your best clients (not your competitors) so you can grow faster.
• The mindset shifts that help you show up as the go-to in your city.

You can get fully booked in a year or less. I see my clients do it all the time. Some even in just a few months.

But most local business owners never make it there. Not because they aren’t talented or hardworking… but because they’re stuck in a cycle that keeps them spinning their wheels.

Tune into this episode to learn:

• The vicious "busy" cycle that keeps so many business owners unbooked and underearning
• Why people feel productive but they've stalled their progress
• What it actually looks like to break this cycle and finally start filling your calendar with clients.
