Stop the Fear and Your Business Will Grow

As I sit here in my home office, sipping green tea and staring at my wiener dog curled up on his fleece bed I started thinking back on how I got here.  Well, I know how I got to my desk…but how I have been able to work from home, snuggling my dog and drinking tea from my own mug ;)

I believe success in business is not about some magic pill or wand, it’s all about you and your relationship with yourself.  You will not be successful with a business if you are afraid to talk to people on Facebook, in person or on the phone.  When I first got started in business I had a dream of me being on stage, helping other women be free and live a life of spending time with their children, not their bosses…..and I bought into everything!  I have been in 3 failed businesses before I have found my gem.  I had all of these ideas, wanted to change lives everywhere, but was I talking to anyone??  No.  Was I committed to growing a business?  No.  How did I expect to grow a business??  *Scratching my head* I needed a miracle!

As I started my 4th business with my partner in crime, I was also fully in a pool of self discovery and understanding self love.  I realized for the last 30 years of my life I was living in pure FEAR and not even close to pure love.  I feared walking the dog at night alone, I feared eating at certain restaurants and I sure as heck feared the phone!  I would have a lead come into my funnel and I just wouldn’t call them…but I would feel good one came through ;)

It wasn’t until I started looking around me to see what other successful people were doing to really become strong and good at their business.  They had dropped all fear of rejection, looking stupid or sounding not knowledgeable.  I studied, learned and saw a Life Coach for a few years to really dive into my muddy pool of fear and found a beautiful little girl in there waiting to try something new.  Since I have let go of FEAR and live through LOVE I call people.  I pick up the phone and dial the number back and actually talk to the lead on the other end.  I change lives.  I allow myself to be the person who is here to change lives though Health and Wealth and I’m ecstatic about it!!  I don’t look at what I do negatively any longer, I look at it as being super empowering and I look at it like I have the key to help families get back together.

When a Fearful thought pops into your head, acknowledge it, thank it and say “I have 2 ways to look at this….through Fear and through Love.  Which do I choose?” and then see where you’re guided.  I hope its through love!

My advice if you are starting a business, full in a business and it’s not going the way you would like it, take a look at why.  See if Fear is ruling your life. See if you believe what you have to share “isn’t really too important” and try living and running your business through a space of love and helping others.  I can guarantee it will turn around for you :)

Do you have any tips for releasing fear?

4 Strategies That Will Create Wealth With Your Passion On Facebook!

Let’s chat on the topic making money while living your full potential doing something you love!  Because I specialize in building relationships online, we are going to focus with the online aspect today because I believe this is where business is.  We are in 2011 where everyone uses the internet for staying connected :)   Goodness, I love it!

We have talked before on how to find and rock your passion and now we are going to chat about how to make some money with it!!

I heart Facebook and do most of my business through this wonderful platform, so I believe you are going to need a Facebook Fan Page or at least Facebook Profile going.  The key to making money in something you are passionate about online is building relationships and building solid ones.  So my passion here online and in this world is Health & Helping Others find Freedom.  Because I have such strong passions and 2 separate ones, I was able to find a business model that I personally can market that fulfills me and others to the brim.  My heart sings when this happens :)

My Facebook Relationship Building Money Making Tips:

1. Stories, Stories, Stories!! The key to my business success is that I always share success stories on Facebook to my followers.  People LOVE seeing people they can relate to and instantly feel like you have the solution for them.  This could be anything from Gluten Free Cookies to Your Coaching Program.

2. Go around and say Hi! I always go around everyday and tell friends on my profile that I wanted to stop by and say “Hi” I will tell them if I like their Status Update or something they posted!  I find it rewarding to share passion with others.  Plus this makes them feel like “Hey, Kris really cares about me and what I do!” and you know what??  I TOTALLY do!!!!  Friends rock!

3. Include people by tagging them @Kris Britton {or whatever their name is} on facebook to get them interacting and for other people to see them…..it makes people feel special :)   Everyone wants to be that Princess in the day!  YAY!

4. Be consistent with posting good VALUE on Facebook or Social Media every 2 hours. This doesn’t mean you need to be on Facebook all day like I am, you just need a total of 20 minutes a day spread out over the day.  Easy Peasy.

Keep following the above 4 steps over the next week and see how many people ask you to explain what you are sharing or what you are up to in business!  They might want your services, coaching, business opportunity, etc.

These tips have allowed me to build my passionate business up very quickly in 45 days and it is fun and empowering at the same time!  I love connecting with people, so if you are anything like me, this is going to be a blast for you!

Build Belief In Yourself To Build A Business With Passion

Building your own business is important in this economy.  I recently heard on a talk show with Suze Orman, the money magic maker herself stated that the ONLY way you will make money or do well in this economy is to have your own business.  Now, let me go over this a bit more, you might not do as well opening an Orchid Shop that only sells orchids because people can’t afford to buy the orchids right now, but it is SMART and Money Making Magic to start an online business or a Home Based Business.

Last year was the first year I was working a business Full Time from home and I will never go back to the cubicle!  No way, no how, I will never have another 9-5 full time, make money for someone else j.o.b.

Many people my partner, Ryan Yokome and I speak with show worry on their face as soon as we bring up the topic of starting their own business.  They have these eyes that join together instantly and their brows are askew….“What?  ME start a BUSINESS???  How…..What Will people think of ME?!” It happens all the time, and we are very used to dealing with “concerned” people like this.  Its almost like teaching a baby bird to fly……so beautiful.

The Number One Rule we have found to Build A Business from Home is to Have BELIEF!

Belief in Yourself

Belief in the Company

Belief in the Products

Plain Ol Belief!

Starting off in this Freedom Game was hard for me.  I never had belief in myself and I cried every time I allowed myself to think I actually wanted to put my face on the internet. I wanted to, but “What Did I Have To Share??” This is the lack of belief that was pouring out of me.  Since building the business we are building now, the belief in all areas of my life have increased and I have been confident in areas I never thought I could be!

How do you Gain Belief in Yourself and Business?

Simple.  To gain belief in yourself, you start to surround yourself with different people! We know this is why our team grows as quickly as it does because we have calls, we have motivation, we believe in our friends and we share that with people all the time!

You want to surround yourself with empowering people that live life BIG!  I want to hang out with the people who Play Bigger than ME, so I have something to aspire to.  Get it?  I know you do, because you are one smart cookie!

Another great tips is to Watch What You Are Feeding Your Mind! So you can hang out with these great, inspiring people, but what good is this going to do if you just go home and feed your mind with ill thoughts or negative t.v. that you used to think or watch?  No, no, no, we want belief and we want this belief to stick!!  Time for a change my friend, we are living life bigger to get the grander results we enjoy and to get home doing the things we enjoy, full time.

Start reading life changing books like: Think and Grow Rich, Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Success Principles, Having it All, etc.

With Business this is easy!  Always align yourself with people in Business who are growing. You also want a great product you can stand behind and a FAB stack of testimonials.  When you hear these testimonials your belief will grow!!

I know you will find something useful in this post, let me know what it is??  Do you have any other tips to share with us?

To Your FAB Success,

xxoo
