The Mind Your Business Podcast

If you're still trying to build a business by gatekeeping information and hiding behind "how-to" videos, I hate to break it to you but you're already behind! As we talked about in last week's episode, here in 2026, people don't want more content, they want their problems removed.
In Part Two of this series, we get into the art and science of the irresistible offer and Jenni shares the exact "Monetize Before You Make It" strategy she used to bring in 526 members in just four days…without even having a sales page! I also reveal how I'm strategically using AI, we give a sneak peek of our brand-new Betamax strategy for selling out programs, plus a whole lot more. 
Want to see what's actually working in the trenches right now? Look no further because here it is, and don't forget to go back and listen to Part 1 before jumping into this one!

Today, I break down the 5 most crucial things that only a real coach can provide. We're moving past the "to-do lists" and the "Magic 8-Ball" style of advice to look at what actually causes a breakthrough!
