I debated posting this because I remember when I first got married, living on 38th & California, and I was "broke" financially — but not mentally. That said, at that time I needed to get on my feet. I wasn't a great target audience for any offer that wasn't going to help me get back up for free or at extremely low cost. I purchased books, but I wasn't coaching-ready, and that's okay. I have a rule: I give to organizations that support those in need, but I don't market to them. I'm not a payday loan store. I remember needing a payday loan store, needing food stamps, and needing help affording things — but at that time I didn't need high-end consulting services. 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ Somewhere along the way we've lost the plot. In the name of "don't count their pockets" we're accepting any and everyone as clients — and it's not the way to go. You can't tell an adult what to do, but you can be clear in your marketing about who you work best with and for… Build a business that allows you to give back, but don't sell to those in need unless you're selling a necessity. The one exception is if you can have an organization pay for your services. But even then, your buyer would have resources while the audience would not. That's okay, and that can work. Make sure your language attracts the right people. You need your customers to have longevity in order to stay in business. Nothing wrong with giving back, but give it. Don't risk your company's future on an audience that can't pay you for your services. 🔗 Join the waitlist NOW → https://www.blackwomensellevent.com?el=skool

POV: YOU’RE LITERALLY THE BUSINESS COACH TO CHAMPIONS 🤯🤯 I’ve always said we work with the best experts in the world but go on ahead and add the top athletes in the world to that too 💪🏽 We had so much fun doing a business strategy day with @sanyarichiross and @rossboy31 Let me just say who I was in the room with. Sanya is a 4x Olympic gold medalist and one of the greatest sprinters this country has ever produced. Aaron is a two-time Super Bowl champion who’s competed and won at the highest level football has to offer. These two know what it takes to prepare, compete, and win when everything is on the line. That mindset doesn’t disappear when you step off the track or off the field. It shows up in how they build. We worked, but there were plenty of laughs too. We mapped out a full strategy to grow both of their brands, and I can’t wait to watch it come to life. One thing about me: we go granular. We built out a calendar with real dates and next steps, landing pages, revenue targets, and messaging that actually sounds like them. Nothing vague, nothing left for later. And once the plan is in motion, I’m still in it with them for strategy as they execute. What I’m most excited about is getting to experience their companies firsthand. If you want coordinating pajamas this holiday season, check out @sanyarichiross and @shopcoordinates. If you have a child athlete, look into @rosseliteacademy for training built by someone who’s actually been there. P.S. If you’ve been wanting to work with me, I only take a limited number of VIP Days each year. Comment or DM me VIP.

I almost broke down crying at the gym because I was just tired…. I texted Chris, “I’m not okay…” and he immediately went into action… He checked on me, hugged me, looked me in the eye and gave me the strongest and softest hug. I got better sleep that night but it’s a lot y’all… But it’s also good, and I’m building capacity in real time. I debated posting but here’s what days look like behind the scenes… It’s “busy” but it’s doing the things required to run the company. It’s also self-checks to make sure I’m not sabotaging… P.S. We made the Inc. 5000 list for three years in a row so we brought back the Justice Tickets! You have 72 hours to register and there’s less than 95 seats left TOTAL we’ve sold over 900 tickets to Black Women Sell Live 🤯🤯
