One thing people don't know about me...

is that I'm afraid.

Especially when it comes to running a business, but I choose to not let that fear hold me back.

You have 15 seconds to capture attention during a pitch or sales call and in an email, you have about 10 seconds.

What do you do to capture attention in those first seconds?

What would you say it means to be entrepreneurial-minded?

Stop being so fearful that your product or service isn't "perfect" before you get it out there.

Two of the biggest mistakes startups make:

1.They try to sell to the whole market instead of ging niche

2.They make bad hires (hire for attributes, not just experience)

What are you doing today to step outside your comfort zone and grow in your personal AND professional life?

Reminder for #collegestudents:

Just because you start in accounting doesn't mean you have to do accounting forever.

Just because you start in marketing doesn't mean you can't do sales or become an entrepreneur.

Explore, be curious, and learn.

A quote was said to me during a recent coaching call.

"Ideas can come from anywhere."

We must create a space to receive these ideas.

How do we create that space?
-being intentional with who and what we surround ourselves with
-being in a constant mode of learning.

You don't know what other skills a team member might be able to bring to the table if you don't ask.

Ask, give time for passion projects, and give them leeway to work a bit outside their job description and see what happens.

Hire for attributes, not roles.

Words that attract ideal employees are words that evoke emotion:
-ownership
-impact
-action
-values
-affirmations
-intentionality
-genuine

What would you say is the difference between a good hire and a great hire?

Every founder of a startup should sell their product at one point.

Why?
