Welcome back to another episode of Foot Traffic! Today we are going to be talking about customer retention! Today I am joined by Casey Graham, the CEO of Gravy who is going to share the 4 step system to creating higher-paying and longer staying clients.
We all know the importance of converting leads to sales, but what about once they buy? How do we keep them? More specifically, how do we keep them paying the bills they have committed to pay? (Which can be one of the biggest headaches in the small business world).
"The Mad Mom Principle..." at 7:35 Casey explains the #1 reason people quit courses and programs. So many customers are oblivious to what you, as a business owner, assume they already know. As entrepreneurs, we have blinders on to the courses and products we create. Casey talks about two software programs that will help you gain more insight on this topic.
"The Magic Moment Principle.." at 13:15 Casey discusses the question you need to ask yourself in order to get your customers emotionally invested. There is a very easy and simple something that you can implement to give your customers a win within the first week.
"The Press Zero Principle..." at 19:10 talks about why human interaction is so important to consumers when they have an issue. We chat about why this step is so crucial, even if you cannot immediately solve their problem.
"The $0.55 Principle..." at 23:00 Casey explains the importance of taking the time to do non-scalable activities to really love on your clients.

Welcome back to another episode of Foot Traffic! If you know me, you know I am a productivity nerd and a systems girl. I'm really excited to be interviewing Tonya Dalton today who is the founder of inkWELLPress Productivity Company and the author of her book, The Joy of Missing Out. Today we're talking about that concept both personally and in our business. When should we say yes and how we often throw things on our calendars that we shouldn't. There are so many things out there and we have to decide when to say yes and when to say no. Let's dive in!
"I believe the book is more than a book. It's the start of a movement..." At minute 2:33, hear what made Tonya write her book, The Joy of Missing Out and how it came to be. Plus, we're talking about how we hide behind the word 'busy'.
"It's really easy for 'yes' to slip out of our mouths.." At 7:18, we dive into a concept I learned from Tonya about the number of Friday's you have left and how that has changed her and her family. I ask her how she finds balance, what questions to ask and the boundaries we should put in place to assess if it's something we should move froward with.
"We chase this illusion of balance and it truly does not exist..." At minute 18:16, we're talking about putting quantity over quality. Are you doing things with intention? Hear what routines, both personal and business, have been a game changer for Tonya.
"We believe that periods of rest are a reward for great work but it's actually a requirement..." At 28:27, a reminder of why taking time to rest and recharge is so important and why we are worn out and exhausted. Plus, hear what tools Tonya uses to keep all of her systems organized.
If you want to connect more with Tonya you can head to joyofmissingout.com to find more resources and discussion guides. You can also visit her website here to check out her podcast, Productivity Paradox, watch her Tonya TV episodes, blogs and resources to help you feel more productive!

Welcome back to another episode of Foot Traffic! Today I am excited because I have a special guest joining me on the podcast who I actually discovered on Instagram! Now, I would like to introduce you to Ralphie Jacobs. Ralphie lives in Austin, TX with her husband and 4 daughters and as an early childhood education expert she quickly learned that the best way to impact a child’s life for good is to teach parents, which is what led her to found @simplyonpurpose.
Upon discovering her Instagram account, I was immediately intrigued! Intrigued by her mission and teachings of course...but also intrigued by her thriving business. Her live events were selling out in under an hour and she had no website. Not only that, in about 2 years she has grown to a following of over 180k! I can’t wait for you to hear how she has gone back to the basics and used simple techniques and strategies to skyrocket her business.
"I started teaching on Instagram stories and giving content..." At minute 2:47, hear how Ralphie started, her story and how Simply On Purpose came to be. Did she know this was going to turn into a business or did she think it would stay a passion?
"One of the big struggles for me is to remind myself that I'm in charge..." At 10:00, hear the moment Ralphie thought this could really be something and realized it was no longer a hobby. Ralphie gives us insight into how many events she is doing and what her model looks like for setting up her events.
"People just want to be a part of something that's good..." At minute 16:45, hear one of the greatest pieces of advice she has received. I ask Ralphie if her buyers and people that attend her events are asking for her to create more products...do they want more?
"They'll love you for it if you're generous..." At 22:11, Ralphie shares what her business strengths are that have been a key factor in her success. I ask her what her work schedule looks like and how far out she plans her events. PLUS, hear the on things that I've learned from Ralphie that I apply to my own family.

Welcome back to another episode of Foot Traffic! Sometimes we have to do things we don’t enjoy now, to get to the benefit (or where we want to go) later. We live in a world of instant gratification. If it doesn’t bring immediate satisfaction or results, we don’t want to do it. For someone like me who is a doer, this is extremely hard, however, I am now reaping the rewards! And in the long run, I am moving my business forward faster and more efficiently.
"Don't you do things everyday that you don't really want to do so your business can thrive?..." At minute 0:40, I'm reflecting on what worked and what didn't work for our latest launch of the Foot Traffic Formula. Hear how every idea I come up with I think is the most amazing but why that's not always a good thing and how advice from a coach mentor or someone on your team is necessary plus the proper timing.
"Not trying to sell but really trying to understand..." At 5:19, I'm sharing my second tip which is listening to our customers. This can be SO powerful to build those connections, showing that you care and you're here to help. Not only that, but making sure we invest time to the right customer.
"You have to start moving forward, taking action..." At minute 9:42, let's talk about indecisiveness and what to do when our customers can't decide if your product or program is what they need. Plus, why we need to stop playing the victim role and understand that we will get burned during entrepreneurship but that doesn't mean to stop taking action or risks.
"It's not going to happen if you're not willing to make those sacrifices..." At minute 15:14, we're talking about taking consistent action and holding ourselves accountable. What is it that's holding you back from being the business owner you were meant to be?

Today I'm doing an on-air coaching call with one of my past client's from The Foot Traffic Formula, Nellie Corriveau from Be Positively You! The biggest takeaway from this conversation was that she's having really great results but she didn't just jump into the program and magically get these results. Nellie is really taking action and making these things happen by taking action. I hope this episode inspires you to take action after hearing from Nellie!

"I get to do some work on this..." At minute 15:15, we're talking all about Facebook ads and how we have to pay to play. Plus, hear her strategy to how she has grown her list organically.

I was sitting in my office...on a Monday...with nothing to do. I can’t say “nothing to do,” but I didn’t know WHAT to do. I had already finished our team meeting, I had finished my “ONE THING” and little to-dos, and only had one more 30 minute appointment scheduled for later that day. Typically my schedule is so jam-packed between my work hours (9am-3pm) that I can barely squeeze in a lunch or bathroom break. (Yes, I hate to admit that but it’s true). From podcast interviews, to content creation, my days are typically pretty full and I have more than enough on my schedule. But not this day. I seriously contemplated just leaving my office to go for a walk or get my nails done, but then it hit me. I knew exactly what I needed to do to figure out what I should do next. So on today’ episode I am deep diving into my strategy to help you figure out what to do when you don’t know what to do next!
"It's not a good thing and I'm telling you that..." At minute 0:40, we are more alike then you might think and I'm sharing what I recently realized while sitting in my office. Hear how I brainstormed what I could do to get out of a funk instead of doing nothing that would move my business forward.
"This is just entrepreneurship..." At 5:24, I'm left with a huge list of AMAZING things but still filled with overwhelm. Find out how I turned that overwhelm into positives by going through my list one thing at a time. Plus, why we can't make excuses for when we get side tracked but we should instead be acknowledging it.
"You have too many big opportunities to grow your business..." At minute 11:55, I'm telling you how this day started with overwhelm but turned into a very impactful and productive day.
