[insert shiny tempting thing here] is the next big thing I need to train myself up on and test it out, so I can show my clients how to use it in their business. I don’t want you to miss out! I see it as part of my job.

However, I realise some of it has wasted my time, and I always find success comes back to these solid foundations, which are the true building blocks of brilliant businesses.

Network. Build relationships. Help others.

Keep in touch regularly via newsletters and email marketing – which has a 68% ROI (return on investment)

Connect and engage on Social media

Talk to people. Talk. Yep, pick up the phone. 

Ask for help from peers, coaches and mastermind groups to get inspiration and grow.

Schedule time to work on your business, not just in it.

Lay these foundations well and they will give you a strong platform to build on.

Do you have these solid foundations in your business? And importantly, are they really ingrained into your daily processes and activities?

What building blocks do you need to take more time to really cement into your brilliant business?

Tell me!

To your success and happiness,

Jo James xx
