What Does It REALLY Take To Be Making 6-Figures As A Service Professional?

Over the past 30 years, I've read such on how to make money that I know I can write a series of books on the topic, books that would cover the junk and you don't have to buy 101 things for each area.

Most of the information repeats itself -- same author, different title and promotion or different author repetition soul else's list. All the how-this and how-that was driving me crazy as to what is REALLY required to make $100,000 or more in revenue.

  What Marketing Strategy

A few calendar months ago, I distinct to go on a pilgrim's journey to create a quick and easy-to-see, all-in-one-place list of what does it REALLY fancy generate a six-figure income as a service professional -- accountant, coach, consultant, and other solopreneurs? Of course, the list is easy to read, but takes conscious awareness and consistency to achieve.

IS BACKLINK SEO

What this list did for me -- it freed up valuable time that I was chasing for what I could possibly need in the future, it kept me focused, it enlarged clarity, and best of all I was able to narrow down my reading time. I also had a plan. Here's the list of what I consider the top 50 -- the list was actually 350 -- but I chose the top ones and removed the repetitions.

1. Get up early and start early.

2. Take time to reflect on the day every evening for at to the last-place degree 30 to 60 minutes.

3. Create a vision before acquiring out of bed every morning on how you see the day progressing. See clients coming to you, see meetings going perfect, see your preparation, etc.

4. Start and diligently use a business journal to record ideas, thoughts, suggestions, and reading/learning.

5. Dress so that you feel comfortable and powerful with your energy. It radiates and attracts.

6. Work more hours. (Don't shoot the messenger.)

7. Schedule your time.

8. Always ask yourself every night, "What can I do better tomorrow from what I learned today?"

9. Complete a one-page SMART business plan with a professional so that they can have an aerial view, because you're too close, and because you are paying them, they have an investment in your success.

10. Complete a one-page SMART marketing plan -- ditto the above.

11. Complete a one-page SMART gross revenue plan - ditto the above.

12. Complete a one-page SMART project plan - ditto the above.

14. Complete a one-page SMART product plan for every product BEFORE starting.

15. Always know your BE point (break even point) for every project/service/product you do.

16. Separate your learning recess from the time you think you are marketing.

17. The best gross revenue call hours and days are Tuesday - Thursday between 10 am and 4 PM.

18. When you want to reach the business owner, try career them before 8 am or after 5 PM.

19. Passive revenue generation products are required.

20. Have a strong business support system.

21. Either be a author or speaker to promote.

22. Become technically adept at the package you use (not expert, adept).

23. Post to-do lists daily.

24. Monitor your time as if it's gold.

25. Have back up plans, alternative solutions, to everything.

26. Learn to say no and say it quickly when it isn't presently in your focus.

27. Have a twice-a-year preparation vacation with yourself.

28. Outsource anything that can be completed by less hourly than you.

29. Leverage all your resources as a quite little like possible.

30. Drop networking groups if you aren't acquiring leads, don't hang on.

31. Leave the volunteering alone until you have made the 6-figures, people will not listen to you anyway until you are making that level or more anyway.

32. Don't allow technology to steal your time.

33. Sleeping in.

34. Spending your energy talking about X instead of taking action on it.

35. Write your goal dollar amount on the biggest sheet you can find and take it to the wall before of you and ask this questions to every to-do on your list, How will this make me that figure? Is it short-term, mid-term, or long-term money generating project.

36. The percentage of time you spend on short-term projects will determine how much money will arrive sooner. Percentage of time = when the money comes in.

37. Keeping irregular office hours doesn't help.

38. You can grow only as big as the fish bowl you are presently in. If you want to grow, move to a pond, then a lake, then an ocean. The fish will get large as you go until you are the heavyweight in the ocean.

39. Only read and learn what you need now, all else is a waste because it will change to quickly by the time you need it.

40. Work with a good coach, one with years of experience in what you want to accomplish.

41. Become adept at creating revenue-generating products.

42. Have a system or process for everything.

45. It is a numbers game. If you want 10 new clients a calendar month, you have to speak to 100 to 300 prospects a calendar month and you have to have the means for doing this set up in a process that works smoothly (otherwise overwhelm will be your partner).

46. Set mind-boundaries. When you're working, your mind is 100% there, when you're home, 100% there. The more they cross, productiveness drops 50% or more.

47. Finish what you start -- always. Half finished to-dos at the end of the day creates an energy debt that carries into the night. The defrayal for this is very great. Don't write on-going goals on your list. Create a to-do list that only fits into the time you have for that day. The to-do can be mini for a big project (that is listed in the one-page project plan mentioned earlier).

48. Create an R&D team for every project.

49. Don't buy anything unless you have use for it now. Be in the now with your buying and not the "some day I'm sure to use it."

50. Go on a 30-day information diet to reprogram your focus, learn to listen and connect with your higher self and knowledge, and to increase clarity of your life, business, career, and self-path.
