How often do you stop to think about why things have or haven’t gone well?

If you’re like most creative business owners, probably not very often.

And the problem with this is that you could be missing the strategies that led to your successes and failures. Meaning it’s harder to repeat the wins and avoid more losses.

As we move into the last quarter of the year, I want to help you to achieve any outstanding goals you’ve set before the year ends.

I’m going to run you through a process that I do with my clients every 90 days, to discover what is and isn’t working, to give you more clarity and help you keep up the momentum.

Covered in this episode: 

  • How to identify what is and isn’t working in your business.
  • Where to shift your focus so you attract more wins.
  • A repeatable process to figure out what you need to do more of.
