Erica Jennings quit her day job in early 2009 to run her graphic and web design firm full-time. At the time, she had a mortgage and one client. Today, Jennings Design LLC has worked with dozens of clients big and small, from national magazines and nonprofits to local consultants, authors, and professionals.

In this episode Erica and Stacy discuss the decisions that entrepreneurs have to make throughout the life of their business, starting with the decision to just go for it.

Some highlights include:

Why not now? At minute 1:00, Erica talks about her decision to quit her day job. After listening to a lot of personal development audios and videos for her day job, she realized that the time was right to make the plunge.

Make a decision. Lots of entrepreneurs get stuck and don’t make decisions they have to make, Erica says. “You don’t need to spend six months coming up with a perfect name.” (minute 6:00)

“I found perfect work-life balance.” At minute 9:00, Erica talks about making the mistake of saying this. She’s come to the conclusion that work-life balance goes in cycles.

Do your due diligence in the hiring process. Erica hired a person through a temp agency, and the person left her completely hanging. Make sure you’re hiring the right person for you. (minute 11:00)

“It can be very nerve-wracking when the money’s not coming in.” Erica talks about learning that it will work out in the end, no matter what. (minute 14:00)

In today’s episode, I’m going to teach you how to wrap up your week.

Take out your journal and talk about your wins. Write down the things you’ve accomplished today or this week. This helps you go into the weekend on a positive note. (minute 1:00)

Journal about what you learned, not from your experiences, but from your education. You have to invest in your education at least daily. Don’t just take it in. What are you learning? (minute 4:00)

Go through all of the tasks you didn’t get done this week and reprioritize them for next week. (minute 5:00)

Don't schedule any work for the weekend, but if you have free time, that's a good time to get weekend work done if you want to. (minute 6:00)

Stacy Tuschl is a speaker, business coach, and the owner of The Academy of Performing Arts in Wisconsin. She is the author of the book “Is Your Business Worth Saving?” where she reveals proven strategies for pulling entrepreneurs out of a rut and launching them toward business success.

In today’s episode, I’m going to talk to you about the alternative of finding a freelancer to work on your projects. Maybe you haven’t ever given any thought to using a freelancer, or maybe you’re already doing it. Either way, I’ve got lots of great information to share with you.

Many businesses are now turning to freelancers because of the convenience and financial advantages that flexible workers like this offer. Personally, I have had great success working with a variety of freelancers by outsourcing work to them that I am just too busy to complete myself. Because of this, I’m able to focus my time on what I am really good at and let someone else deal with other important areas of the business that I am not as skilled in, or that I quite frankly don’t have time for. If you are an entrepreneur, you know as well as I do that when you run your own business and have a family life, time is valuable and you need to identify priorities.

Today I’m going to tell you what to look for in a freelancer, where to look, what the advantages are, and how to develop an ongoing relationship with the right freelancers. You’ll learn all about doing business with freelancers, and I’ll give you some practical advice to help make sure you succeed. I hope that by the end of the podcast you will be well educated on the subject and will feel confident about exploring the option of hiring a freelancer for yourself.

Some highlights include:

Why should you use freelancers? In today’s market, you may need someone to help you share your message. You’ll need people to help you in the areas of business you aren’t an expert in, and it quickly becomes very expensive to employ a full-time staff to fill every position you need to fill, particularly if your business is small. (minute 2:00)

How do you find the right freelancer? Freelancers can be found easiest online, and I recommend a resource called Upwork. Freelance platforms like Upwork help to protect you from bad experiences by creating transparency through client feedback. I’ve used Upwork for several projects and it has helped me connect with some excellent people who I still work with to this day. (minute 3:00)

When you are hiring a freelancer, make sure you also take the time to consider what time zone they are working in. If they are outside of your region, they may be in a completely different time zone and communication could be a major challenge. (minute 6:00)

Any wise freelancer will price their rates competitively because they know that there are plenty of other people out there trying to land contracts as well. This is great for you because unless the job you are hiring for is incredibly specialized, it means you’ll be able to work with someone who isn’t overcharging you for their services. (minute 11:00)

Don’t try and nickel and dime people so that you’re paying less than minimum wage. Word will get out that you are a stingy client, and there will be less incentive for freelancers to give you their best. Remember, you are still paying less for the work than you would be if you have to bring someone in on salary. (minute 12:00)

Stacy Tuschl is a speaker, business coach, and the owner of The Academy of Performing Arts in Wisconsin. She is the author of the book “Is Your Business Worth Saving?” where she reveals proven strategies for pulling entrepreneurs out of a rut and launching them toward business success.

In today’s episode, I’m going to talk to you about professional development. Even if you’ve been very successful with your business and you feel that you’ve made it to the top, you need to be committed to being a lifelong learner.

Think back to the time you spent in school. As a student, your primary job was to learn. It wasn’t to sell or produce a product, it was simply to absorb all of the knowledge being presented to you. Unfortunately, it’s easy to stop learning once the tests end. Nobody is able to make it through life solely on the knowledge we learned in school, and we have to keep learning.

In this episode, I’m going to present some opportunities for lifelong learning.

Some highlights include:

Continual learning is a sign of strength, not weakness. (minute 2:00)

Learning doesn’t have to be time-consuming. I try to read at least 10 pages of a book every night before bed. Daily learning in small chunks is a great strategy for fitting professional development into your already busy schedule. (minute 4:00)

Attend live seminars. I always attend at least one live seminar every six months, and the reason I love these is because it’s a great opportunity to set everything else aside and focus on your professional development. (minute 8:00)

Darren Hardy says you should invest 10% of your income towards your professional development. This is a great strategy, and you will reap the benefits. (minute 12:00)

Are you not enjoying learning? You’re probably not learning from the right person. Don’t be afraid to mix it up and try someone new. You just need to find the right person for you. (minute 14:00)

Michael Port has written six books, including “Book Yourself Solid” and “Steal the Show,” the latter which, according to the former President of Starbucks, might be the most unique and practical book ever written on the topic of public speaking. He's been called an “uncommonly honest author” by the Boston Globe, a “marketing guru” by The Wall Street Journal, a sales guru by the Financial Times, a public speaking phenom by Jonathan Fields and the best public speaking coach in the world by Lewis Howes. The founder of MastermindTalks, Jayson Gaignard, declared, "Michael Port is the best speaker I've ever seen."

His books have been on the bestseller lists of the NY Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today and Publisher's Weekly and have been selected by Amazon and 800-CEO-READ as "best books of the year." He was once a professional actor, having received his MFA from NYU's Graduate Acting Program, guest starring on shows like Sex & The City and Law & Order, and in films like The Pelican Brief and Down to Earth. These days, Michael can be seen on MSNBC, CNBC, and PBS as an on-air expert in communication and business development and as the host of the most popular podcast on public speaking and performance, Steal the Show with Michael Port.

In this episode, Michael and Stacy discuss the trials and tribulations of running a business.

Some highlights include:

“Winners quit all the time.” At minute 3:00, Michael talks about why it doesn’t mean you’re a failure if you quit. Sometimes it pays to just move onto a better idea.

What’s more important, approval or results? Michael dives deep into the search for approval and discusses why constantly seeking approval can lead to burning out. (minute 14:00)

“How much you make really doesn’t matter.” Michael shares at minute 18:00 why revenue isn’t the financial number that you need to pay attention to; it is profit.

Things change. The kinds of advertising Michael uses now simply didn’t exist when he first started his business, and you have to be willing to utilize the most effective strategies available now. (minute 25:00)

“When there’s a lot of friction, things slow up.” At minute 37:00, Michael talks about how to become better at leading your team.

Stacy Tuschl is a speaker, business coach, and the owner of The Academy of Performing Arts in Wisconsin. She is the author of the book “Is Your Business Worth Saving?” where she reveals proven strategies for pulling entrepreneurs out of a rut and launching them toward business success.

In today’s solocast, I’m going to be talking about tech tools that will help you work smarter. There are so many tools that you can now access to make your business run more efficiently than ever before. I use a lot of the tools that we’ll be talking about today for my own business, and with the tech tools that I have at my fingertips I can’t imagine how I would get by from week to week.

In this solocast, I’m going to talk about eight of my personal favorite tech tools.

Some highlights include:

One of my favorites is an accounting tool called FreshBooks, an application that can help you track time, create invoices, make payments, report expenses, and more. I used it when my business was very small, and I’ve yet to outgrow its usefulness. (minute 1:00)

A business marketing platform that I love is Ontraport, a service that allows you to publish websites, manage email marketing campaigns, sell your products, and more. It’s been designed with entrepreneurs in mind. (minute 3:00)

Asana is a great tool for project management. We all know how quickly projects can become disorganized if we aren’t careful, and Asana is amazing for organization. (minute 6:00)

Do you spend too much time on social media? Do you feel unorganized? If you’re not yet using Hootsuite, you really should be. It allows you to post to all of your social media accounts at the same time, saving valuable time that you can spend elsewhere. (minute 9:00)

A service you can’t afford to live without is Dropbox. Uploading your files is safe and secure, and it’s smarter to not have them taking up space on your computer. Your computer will run faster if it’s not bogged down, and you’ll be prepared if your computer crashes. (minute 10:00)

However, we would never recommend any product or service unless we personally love the product and have great things to say about it. Our reputation is at stake and we would not jeopardize that!
