Get Your A.S.S.S. Going

It’s almost time for the New Year! Can you believe it! Ok – now is the time to get honest with yourself.

Are you where you said you would be in your business when you cast your vision one year ago?

Do you have a great message and heart to transform people but you feel your business needs a total makeover?

There are many reasons that we can give as to why you didn’t achieve your goals so far in 2016.

You didn’t have enough time or money. People didn’t agree to work with you like you thought they would. You weren’t visible in your market. You had too many obstacles with your business backend or website. You didn’t take action. Other people let you down. The list can go on and on.

The big thing that you need to come to terms with is that if you are going to get new results in 2017 then you have to get you’re A.S.S.S. going with your goals in your business.

I know it’s a bit on the ‘cheeky side’ ☺ – but this acrostic has the potential to solve your biggest problems in your business.

Hi, my name is Scott Epp and I am the founder of Abundance Coaching.

We specialize in coaching business owners, professionals, celebrities and executives to become their authentic amazing best.

I came up with this acrostic for my own business because I knew that something needed to change a few years ago.

This is how you get you’re A.S.S.S. going with your goals.

UTOMATE. You need to find a way of automating as many steps as you can with your business. I first learnt this principle from Brendan Brouchard and my mentor Ted McGrath as they are masters of automation.

Here is an example of how automation can work for you. If you go to our website www.abundancecoaching.com you will find that we have an automated slider that gives people the immediate information that will help them learn what core problems we solve.

You will get an automated popup with my popular Awaken the Wild Lion Within eBook.

This automated process gets people their eBook and a bonus Coaching Tool immediately through our lead box.

This also gets people on our mailing list which is also automated at the start and I introduce personalized email messages along the way.

If you scroll down further we have the most popular questions that people have about coaching, how we work, success stories and how to get a free 25-45-minute purpose and breakthrough connection with myself or one of our coaches.

If people aren’t ready, they can check out our automated free resources like our Abundance Life Wheel Game, our TV channel and more.

Our whole website is automated to generate interest and email subscribers. Then we guide people through a process as we add value and build trust which inspires many people to work with us and as a result our business grows.

This automation is backed up with automatic campaigns that lead people to our website through social media, YouTube videos, Google AdWords and more.

Automation is just a tool. I believe in high personal connection but as a growing business owner I reserve this for my one-on-one clients.

I give you this example because if you aren’t getting the results that you need in your business then a great way to start is to set up and automate everything that you can in your business.

Then you can work where you really want – with the amazing people that hire you.

What areas of your business do you need to automate in 2017?

TART. You may have found that you didn’t achieve business success in 2016 because you let your dreams remain wishes. You may have had ideals of how awesome your business or life would be but you didn’t take massive action and really start. I recently decided to just start creating and posting 2 Minute Breakthrough Videos on Facebook. They are short and punchy videos with an inspiring story and empowering question that I leave people with at the end.

I have already made 30 videos and have now started dropping them on my Abundance Coaching Facebook page as an automatic scheduled weekly video.

Sometimes people don’t start because they are afraid of what it could mean if they actually did start. Other times people over analyse.

Start means that you get into motion on your initial plans. Once you’re in motion you can adjust along the way. The way to move from just motivation to momentum is through the power of mentors and adjustments.

Firstly, you do need to get the ball going. Your plan will never be 100% so why wait for it before you begin.

This time when you hit an obstacle, stop yourself and look at the situation. Then look for a mentor or coach in real life that can help you overcome your challenge.

People that are in your corner can often see a great road for you especially if they have gone down a similar path before you.

You can also watch YouTube videos, read a book or study how people have overcome similar challenges.

Have faith that when you start you will need to make adjustments along the way with the new information and knowledge that you gather.

Be a mover and shaker and start something that is awesome and that stretches you.

What do you need to start doing in your business in 2017?

S

TRATEGY. So, you’ve started, taken some actions and you’ve gained some valuable information based upon the data you have collected with your actions.

That is Fantastic! Now you need to build the right strategy to achieve your success.

Your adjustments that you made while starting will now become strategic and planned. I like the wise quote from Brian Tracy:

“Every minute you spend in planning saves 10 minutes in execution; this gives you a 1,000 percent Return on Energy!”

Not only does planning save you time in the long run but it significantly increases your emotional state and energy! Now that is worth celebrating.

So often when I work with new business owners they love to talk about the idea that they have. That’s wonderful. I love the ideas as well – ideas are where the passion and creativity flow and they are essential for our dreams to come true. I never underestimate the power that a great idea can have. However, I have often found that a business, not built on long term vision, will eventually falter.

If you own a business and you know you need to make a shift in 2017, then I strongly encourage you to execute the right strategy.

YSTEMS. Ok Magnificent. You are now really utilising the power you need to build your business. You are automating a process, you’ve started and you’ve built a strategy.

To make all of the pieces fit together, you need to have systems that are inspiring and effective for your business.

This step can be where small business owners get stuck. You may have the other facets that will help your business grow but the right systems will help you, even when you hit obstacles and get your business to grow.

In our Abundance Coaching process, we help you with our Business System Blueprint. This is an effective bootstrapped approach to growing your business.

Then make adjustments and grow towards achieving the next milestone. If you want to get more clients, franchise your business, get an exit strategy for your business or grow your business instead of just run it, then getting the right systems is your answer.

What systems do you need to set up for your business in 2017?

So that’s it! If you’re ready to make a massive impact in your business in 2017 then get you’re A.S.S.S. going!

Start creating your future TODAY, not tomorrow, not in the near future – but, Right NOW!

Start planning your 2017 and if you need support or help with any or all of the above, get a free purpose and breakthrough session or attend Your Ultimate New Year Workshop here in Sydney on Feb 4th.

You have talents and a heart to impact people in powerful ways.

Now is the time for you to get your business on the right plan and path to achieve the results that you need in 2017! Yahoo!!!!
