How to Build a Real Business

How to Build a Real Business

This past week, my membership - the Solo CEO Club - grew by over 305% (from 20 students to 81); which is absolutely insane!


And even though the membership was already profitable, now it's single-handedly paying for ALL of my business expenses.


Now, all the additional revenue from my other consulting contracts, book royalties, and private coaching is pure profit that I can invest, save, or spend on whatever I want (like traveling to Panama, where I've been for the last week).

This feeling of experiencing financial independence is quite euphoric and it's something that I've been chasing for over a year.


Not months.


Not weeks.


Not days.


But for over a year.


And the reasons why I achieved this financial growth in my business are twofold:


  1. ?I never quit, I stayed focused, and consistently put in the work
  2. I learned from and also had help from my amazing coach


?You see, any real business takes time to build.


And this information goes against all the crap and overnight success stories that are plaguing the internet, such as:

?

"Grow your business to 6 or 7 figures in 90 days or less"
"Live your dream life and only work 4 hours a day"
"Just think positive and you can manifest anything"


And on and on...


A real business is more than filing paperwork.


A real business is?more than calling yourself a creator (coach, course creator, entrepreneur, or however you self-identify).


And a real business is much?more than making a couple of dollars every blue moon.

?

That's because in order to have a real business, you must have a?system that consistently generates profits for a minimum of 12 consecutive months.


Building a real business is a long game.

?

And, if you don't take the time to establish a solid foundation, you will fall victim to dishonest scammers, get-rich-quick schemes, and money-wasting shiny objects.?

?

Trust me, everything I am telling you comes from over 17 years of first-hand entrepreneurial experience.


I've been where you want to go, and if you want to learn how to build a real business, then I recommend that you also join the?Solo CEO Club.


The first membership level costs less than a cup of coffee and after you become a member, you'll get access to all of the knowledge that I've accumulated.


And I know that some of you may be skeptical.


And I also know that some of you may want to?keep on doing everything by yourself.


But, don't believe all the hype that successful creators build their businesses alone.


As I mentioned before, I too had help and I am so thankful that I had the courage and humility to ask for it.


Because without the help of others, I would not be where I am today.


Remember, it takes time to build a real business.


I am a living, breathing testimony of this truth.


And if you want to build a real business too, I am here to help you do that!

?

Until next time.

Awesome and well deserved! That’s a huge jump in a week. You attribute that to anything in particular? Feel free to tell me that information is (and probably should be) only reserved for your paying members ??
