The key to building buzz, is to first think big. A simple act, right? Right. But to actually reach that big dream, you must hit several milestones along the way. Because you are in the business of growing a small business, things get personal. Your personal goals blend with you business goals. At the beginning of each year, when we are setting New Year's Resolutions, this is no time to mess around, and to just say: "I want to get skinny this year," or "I want to have a lot of money this year."
At Tin Shingle, we approach this differently. We declare the items we are going to achieve, because they are going to impact big results. This is so important to us, that we have brought in two experts to clear the paths for this: a money expert, Galia Gichon of Down to Earth Finance, and a life building expert Christine Agro of Awaken with Christine Agro.
This is the time to hunker down in your thoughts, and declare what it is you are going to do differently this year. You are going to confront the Devil in the Details and make big change in your life, that will open doors and clear paths for you to reach the big business dream(s) you envisioned. The way we see resolutions at Tin Shingle go something like this:
File my taxes on time this year - this translates into creating good financial health in general, and getting wealthier (vs living in the scary zone of owing back taxes, dings on your credit with leans that don't let you borrow money, etc.)
Pay my bills on time - causing higher credit score and perhaps forcing self to not spend as much debt in order to keep payments low - thus causing more cash wealth.
Eat more cous-cous. Don't laugh - this translates into "eating healthier"
Double the income of my spouse - this translates into "have my business earn lots of money and pay all the bills"
During this TuneUp, we will discuss ways to hit these goals/resolutions. We will:
Set or Reset Resolutions: What were they? Don't remember? That's OK. We'll set fresh ones.
