Do You Need a Process for Setting Up as an Entrepreneur?

If you’re starting out as an entrepreneur, I always suggest that you begin with an inner level energy management foundation to help you to pre-pave the energy for the actions that you will need to take in setting up your own business.

At the same time, if you don’t have any idea of what the outer level processes would be for your business, it can be a little bit daunting to try to manage your energy around it!

I believe that the Inner level and Outer level are equally important to every entrepreneur – in fact, seeing these things as equally important is what makes you a Spiritualpreneur!

But if you are a little nervous about what exactly to do for taking those next actions, keep in mind some of the following steps that will be very helpful to you as tried and true ways that you can go about setting up!

First, decide on Full Proprietorship vs. LLC.  Your decision is an individual one and may depend on your tax situation and current income levels.  Interview an accountant or a tax preparer to get more information.

This decision is important for you and for the IRS.  If you are going to be a sole proprietor, the accountant can tell you what you need to keep and how to keep it.

Set yourself up properly and stay in alignment with good records.

How Can You Activate the Unique Serving Offer of Your Own Business?

When I first told my mom that I was a coach, she said, “Of course you are”.

And then she reminded me of the time I brought a little boy home on the school bus with me to teach him his ABC’s because he was having trouble in school.  My mom said, “Who’s your friend?”

And when I told her, she said, “Does his mom know he’s here with you to learn his ABC’s?”

And of course, his mom had no idea where he was!

But I learned from others that they saw me as an activator, a cheerleader – and that I helped them move easily through things and they were able to access other possibilities.

I wasn’t always aware of my unique gifts.

These things were natural for me and sometimes when that happens, you don’t see the value in them; you think everyone does or knows that; you don’t think that it is unique.

One of my clients is a spa owner.  She is really unique in that she has the ability to intuit exactly how people would look at their very best; she can see it and offer it in a progressive plan of action.

She can see a picture of the best hair color, the most beautiful hairstyles that would fit the shape of their face, and how their features can be best enhanced with make-up they should be using.  She can always see the very best for them.

She is very directive, and she makes recommendation about things that people may not usually pay for.   She activates possibilities in her clients. Her clients simply put their appearance in her hands and they totally trust her.

When you are in touch with your passion - with what makes you REALLY unique, you can stand in a more authentic place of power about what you are doing and offering – including asking for your price.

When you have achieved awareness of your ideal client, your uniqueness, and your niche, you can move forward very comfortably and freely as yourself.

Use the following Activation Exercise to help get a real awareness of your unique serving offer activated within you for your own business: Read more

How Do You Create the Foundation for Taking Action in Starting Your Own Business?

Yesterday I talked about making a 30-Day Action Plan for starting your own business.  The thing is, there are many layers to making a plan and taking action, and the stronger your foundation is, the greater your success will be.

If you are creating an Action Plan for your own business, it is a good idea to always make sure to include the following foundational steps – taking the time to create what I call an Energy Blueprint:

First, surface up the energy that you have activated about whatever goal or project you want to work on.  No matter what it is, it’s OK.

You are going to write down the beliefs, patterns, evidences, and actions - anything that’s serving you about your business.

Next, identify the beliefs that may not be serving you as well.  Drill them down! You will write these down as well.

Following that, you will create one new progressive belief – something that makes you feel just a little bit better.

You can use what I call a Merry-Go-Round visualization to assist you in emerging a progressive belief by imaging a Merry-Go-Round in a children’s park.

When you are on this kind of Merry-Go-Round, you have to run around in a circle, holding onto the bars until you have gathered enough momentum, or energy, to jump on.

If you don’t have enough momentum you won’t be able to get on.

If you are running too fast and try to jump on, you may get tossed further by the momentum. You will be able to visualize through this if you are a vibrational match to the progressive belief by seeing and feeling in this visualization if you got “On” the Merry-Go-Round.

After you have emerged a progressive belief, you will use that new belief daily in an energy management tool called Scripting. Read more
