Are you relying on external agencies or individuals to handle crucial aspects that grow your styling business? Many stylists (and entrepreneurs of all types) think they can merely delegate their way to success instead of building expertise and a genuine connection with clients. But it feels a bit like hiring someone to wear your dream outfit which sounds ridiculous right? So instead, let’s figure out where you might be outsourcing your business’s growth and what you can do instead.
In this episode of The Six Figure Personal Stylist Podcast, we’ll discuss why your hands-on involvement is crucial. We’ll explore why the desire to outsource growth stems from avoiding self-trust, address the common pitfalls of relying on external help, reveal how to effectively delegate without sacrificing your unique voice and client relationships, and illustrate the transformative power of trusting your expertise and taking decisive action.
3:20 - Why relying on others to build your personal styling business keeps you stuck
7:48 - An example of what happens when you stop outsourcing business growth and start trusting yourself
12:48 - Sales as a process and what your clients need from you
15:51 - Clearing up a misconception about outsourcing (and how it impacts burnout)
17:36 - The parallel between you and your clients and experiencing growth through discomfort
21:09 - What coaches should and shouldn’t do for you, the importance of identifying and addressing fears, and perfectionism as a sign of potential trauma
27:50 - Why AI can’t replace critical thinking, the consequence of using it unaltered, and how to correctly use it
31:04 - What you need to know before you outsource your social media marketing and what to do instead
37:34 - The question to develop the habit of consistently asking yourself when making decisions
