How to Hustle Without Burning Out

Ready to learn how to scale WITHOUT working harder?

Do you ever just scroll through Instagram and think Who are these people?

I’m not talking about the perfectly curated feeds (although, believe me, I have PLENTY of issues with those…). I’m talking about the way we glorify the hustle. The way working all the time seems to be a badge of honor. “I’m on vacation on a deserted island and I managed to find some wifi so I could work on my business. #dedicated #lovemylife”

Tired of the hustle?!  If you are ready to learn how to scale without working harder, if you want to learn how to hustle without burning out, READ THIS!

When I’m on vacation, the last thing I’m thinking about is finding wifi and working. I love my business. I love the women I work with. But I HATE the hustle.

More importantly, I believe that you don’t have to hustle constantly to be successful. The point of building a successful business isn’t to work constantly. It’s to have the freedom to work on your own terms. 

It’s true that in the beginning, you have to put in a lot of effort. Finding that first client takes time and plain old hard work. If you’re not willing to put in any work, you’ll never get the business off the ground in the first place. But once you’ve landed those first few projects, once you’ve started working, what happens next?

At some point, you’ll discover that you can’t keep shoehorning more clients into your calendar. There comes a day when you think about growing your income without growing your workload. 

Last week, I told you about Meagan. In a single year, she went from not having a business at all to being fully booked. And that’s when she came to me and asked, “Um… now what?”

And meagan wasn’t the only Free Mama who found herself in that situation. There were plenty of others who went through my 12-week program, got started, and then looked around 6 or 8 months later and said, “Wow.”

Because being fully booked is AWESOME — but it also means that you’ve hit an income ceiling. When you can’t take on more work, what’s the next step?

It turns out that there are actually five steps to moving forward from that spot. 

First, you have to niche down in your service and/or in the industry you serve. The more specific you can be with your business, the better. 

Bookkeeping for women-owned business owners making over $300,000 a year. 

Funnel design for course creators with a free + shipping offer.

Instagram management for physical product creators. 

Get past the fear of niching down, and embrace your position as THE person who DOMINATES your space.

Second, shift your business from custom services to a standard offering. When you’re starting out, it makes sense to offer a custom solution to every client who comes your way. You get more experience, and try different things. But when you’re ready to scale your business, you can’t put in the time to craft a different experience for each customer. Standard offerings mean you can focus on delivering a consistently awesome experience and streamline your work.

Third, figure out how you can productize your service. In other words, create something once and then sell that thing over and over again, so that you know exactly what you’re delivering to everyone you work with. The best part about productizing? You can make money while you’re sleeping. Your income becomes detached from time completely.

Fourth, start outsourcing. Put together a team that can help and support you as you grow. 

Fifth, automate your delivery process. 

That’s exactly how I built my own business — and it’s exactly what I’ve helped plenty of other women do, as well, though the Movement Maker Accelerator.

And the Movement Maker Accelerator is now open for enrollment for what may be the ONLY time in 2020. 

Last year, 10 women joined the Accelerator. After just 3 months, 5 of them had successful gotten PAID to productize their skills into a profitable courses. 3 of them hit 6 figures in their businesses last year — and that’s just the beginning.

If you’re currently fully booked in your business and you also hate the hustle, then maybe it’s time to think about scaling differently. Book a call with me so that we can figure out if the Movement Maker Accelerator is the right fit for you and your business.

Remember, the Movement Maker Accelerator is open for enrollment now — and I honestly don’t know if there will be another opportunity to enroll in 2020. Fill out your application today and jump on a call with my team so that we can talk about it and see if it’s the right move for you. 

P.S. The Movement Maker Accelerator is open for enrollment right now, and this may be your only chance to get in this year.  Apply now!
