Business lessons are all around you
If you're open to them, business lessons are all around you, every single day, and they're yours to grab and take hold of as you move through life.
“ I think as you are surrounded by other people, whether they're business people or not, you can learn a lot about people and success by watching them. By watching how they go through life. By watching how they act and interact and react. We learn the most about people when they are in adverse situations.”
-Bonnie L. Frank

Clubhouse isn't your business marketing answer!
Clubhouse is a wonderful platform and it can do amazing things for you personally and professionally, but it isn't your business marketing answer. Listen in for all the details.
“ It is never okay, in my opinion, to just talk about what you've got for sale. Nobody cares that you've got something for sale. Guess what? They’ve got something for sale, too!”
-Bonnie L. Frank
Today’s episode is my third episode about Clubhouse. Yes, my third. Why? Well, I thought it was about time I dispel some misconceptions about Clubhouse. If you’ve heard the buzz about Clubhouse from any online social media marketers, you would think there were customers just lining the Clubhouse hallways eager to buy any discount webinar, photo filter or online course you are hawking. I can tell you that is just not so. If you go onto Clubhouse with the idea that you're going to sell, sell, sell, you'll probably fail. So then, what is really going on in those rooms...

Don't you dare take NO for an answer, mindset and other ways to have business success
You should never accept the word NO or "that's impossible" for an answer in your life or your business.
In this week's episode:
- I do not want you to ever take the word "no" or the phrase, "It's not possible" as possible answers in your life or your business.
- Those are not possibilities in my life. (I give detailed examples in the episode)
- When someone tells you "It's impossible" it only means that it's impossible for the person talking...it has nothing to do with YOU, your life, or your business success.
- Everyone I knew said I would fail as a business coach.
- I started (and succeeded) anyway.
- Failure is part of success.
- If you truly want to succeed, you CANNOT accept "No" or "impossible."
- Success (an manifesting) requires making a decision plus action.

- The difference between success and failure is giving up.
- The most successful entrepreneurs are also the ones who don't give up, aren't afraid to try,...

- I didn't grow up knowing about entrepreneurship and I was 18 years old before I ever met an entrepreneur.
- I started my business coaching and consulting business at 49 years old with no encouragement, no training, no encouragement, and no start-up money.
