Do you know what it means to refine your promise? Have you ever done it for your program, course, coaching, etc.?
If your answer is no and you find that you are having a hard time making sales, this could be one of the reasons why.
In order to make sales, you have to understand your perfect customer, hone in on your message to align with that customer, and finally, you have to be really great at communicating the promise that you are making to them.
So many people cannot clearly articulate the promise of what they sell, so that is what we are getting into in this episode.
I am going over some examples and giving you some ideas and tips so you can make sure that you refine your promise to be clear and concise.
If you want to grow and scale your business, you have to be able to communicate what it is your offer does for people, so tune in to learn how to do this well!
If you want to have a bigger impact in your business but you're not exactly sure how to achieve that without working harder and longer, apply to my 12-month rickmulready.com/accelerator! It will allow you to take the guesswork out of optimizing and accelerating the growth of your online business!

How can you change your company culture to be more inclusive? How can you create a more inclusive business overall?
This is such an important topic, and these are questions that you should be asking yourself as a business owner.
I have been thinking about this a lot recently with my diversity, equality, and inclusion coach and consultant, Erica Courdae, because I am working on making sure that my business is intentionally inclusive.
Erica is joining me in this episode to talk about creating a safe space, building an inclusive environment, and more.

I should have had this conversation with you a long time ago...
In this episode, I am getting vulnerable and sharing with you a shift that has been happening in my business and in my personal life.
This has to do with my very limited perspective and experience of the world and the lack of impact I have been able to make because of it on my family, business, and others that I work with.
As a result, I want to do the work to take responsibility for the process, to understand that my experience is very different from a lot of other people's experiences, and most importantly, learn as much as I can from others even when it is uncomfortable for me.
On Today’s Show You’ll Learn:
Being vulnerable is not something that is easy for me, but that is no excuse as to why I haven’t talked about this.
The truth is, I've had a lot of different, difficult conversations that have made it really clear that I was not showing up the way that I needed to. I believe that when we know better, we do better, and it's time for me to do better.
Listen in for this honest conversation and hear what I am doing going forward to make changes in my business and my life.

Does starting the hiring process overwhelm you?
In this quick tip episode, I am sharing with you a laser hot seat session that I recently did with one of our Accelerator coaching members where we talk all about getting clarity on who to hire.

Do you want to know how to start making hires for your business?
I asked my online business manager, Erika Macauley, to join me on the show today. She came into my business at the end of 2020, and she is just amazing. She gets more done part-time than some full-time team members I’ve had in the past.
Today Erika is going to give you a counterintuitive approach to hiring your support staff. She’s walking us through the order in which you should hire support staff, what it costs to hire people in roles like OBM or VA, what to include in your job posting and all kinds of other important things to know.
Erika is a systems slayer, chaos coordinator, Trello evangelist and pretty dang good at whipping the back end of businesses into shape. She’s an OBM, integrator, and project manager who works with 6 and 7-figure creative business owners to get her Type A brain wrangling all their amazing visionary ideas into actionable outcomes.
On Today’s Show You’ll Learn:
Hopefully this simplifies the hiring process for you and helps you to see what your next steps might be as you grow your team.

Are you trying to figure out how to stand out in a crowded niche?
If you’ve been listening to the show recently, we’ve been talking about this a lot.
Let me tell you what grade school taught me about it.
Here’s a little fact about me: my biggest pet peeve is being talked down to. Several years ago, I dove into figuring out why that bothers me so much, and I realized that it happened to me a lot as a kid. People often talked at me instead of to me.
When I started my business, my instinct was to talk at people too. That was what I knew, and I wondered why it was so difficult to grow my audience.
In this episode, I’m sharing what I learned from that experience, and how it has helped me connect with my perfect customer, stand out in my niche and grow my business.
It’s going to be a good one. Don’t miss it!
