7 Steps to 6 Figure Business Success and A Life

7 Steps to 6 Figure Business Success and A Life
By Marjorie Geiser

What does "6 figure business success" really mean? When we say "6 figures" we're talking about making over $100,000 a year. Today, I help clients not only get to $100,000, but also to $1,000,000, which is seven figures!

However, the issues health professionals face when moving into the 7-figure category is very different than the 6-figure category. So, for today, let's address "6 figure business success."

But here is what often comes up for a lot of health professionals when you say "6-figure income" to them: They shy away, because what they really want is the success AND a life, but don't believe they can have both. I am here to tell you that you can have both! I have a 6-figure coaching business that I run out of my home office and also enjoy a lot of 'play' time with my husband and friends. It does take planning, however. And after working on it, myself, for several years, I have come up with the 7 essential steps to create 6-figure success and have a life.

In order to achieve this, here are, in a nutshell, the 7 steps you must complete in order to create your 6-figure success:

Creating your niche and brand. Who is your ideal client? What makes you unique? What is about you and your services that makes you different? These are critical questions that have to be answered from the very beginning, along with the question about what your big vision is for your business.

Clarifying your services and turning them into programs. Moving away from the dollars-for-hours model not only frees you up to create amazing success for your clients, but also moves you into a whole new tax category!

Planning for success. My saying is "with vision and planning, anything is possible." Thus, you've created that vision, now you have to plan! This includes putting your goals and objectives down on paper (taking them out of your head and making them 'real'), and creating the promotional plan for how you will make all your visions come true.

Developing your marketing messages. What will you say when someone calls you to ask what you do? How will you attract people to call you? Where will you find them? All of this is essential to success.

Managing your finances. They say cash is king. You must be very clear what your business model is. You have to know what a business model is! And keep your eye always on the bottom line. This means tracking all money coming in and going out. This eye to the money details makes all the difference between success and failure.

Creating a compelling online presence for success. What does your website say about you when visitors stop by? How will you turn those visitors into clients? What is your online message? Today this piece is beyond critical.

Planning for support. You can't grow a 6-figure business and have a life if you're doing it all yourself. One of the hardest things for people to do is hire help. But once you have tested the 'help' waters, you'll be hooked!

Imagine living the life you dream of: Not only are you making an amazing difference in the lives of your clients, but also living the successful, stress-free life you have always dreamed of. It is possible! Work on these 7 steps and watch how you can change your life as well as those around you.
