Really, staying in front of your audience and reminding them of the solution you have to their problem is a service in itself. In this episode we’ll talk about the “Significant 6,” or the 6 systems every business needs in order to do marketing and sales effectively. We’ll also look at why some people aren’t ready to buy yet and what you can do to help them.E42: Social Media Is Not Marketing with Kronda AdairE42: Social Media Is Not Marketing with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: https://karveldigital.com/42

We’ll be returning with our next season soon and until then, I'm sharing with you a few gems from the vault to carry you over the bridge between seasons. Today, I want to get a little bit personal. I had something happen to me recently where I woke up and just was not well. It turned out that I had vertigo which I never had before and it was really freaky. Fortunately, it resolved fairly quickly. In today’s episode, I share seven lessons from getting sudden vertigo. It was the process of figuring out what was wrong and what to do about it, plus all the help that I got, that revealed these lessons to me. They are great lessons for life or business, so enjoy the episode and I'll see you on the flip side.Re-Release B09: Here's Why Email Marketing Is (Still) Important with Kronda AdairRe-Release B09: Here's Why Email Marketing Is (Still) Important with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b09

We’ll be returning with our next season soon and until then, I'm sharing with you a few gems from the vault to carry you over the bridge between seasons. Today's topic is one of my favorite rants. It’s about getting up the courage to email your list. Have you started your email list but aren’t quite sure what to say or feel afraid that someone will get mad at you for emailing them? Those are two of the most common fears I hear about email marketing. In this episode, I give you some practical tips for getting over that fear, but before we dive in I quickly want to touch on the flip side of this fear for a minute. If you’re one of those people that just emails “willy-nilly” to folks who haven't really consented to hear from you about your business or whatever it is you're emailing about—please stop that. I've had a few different people lately assume that because we've had interactions around business, it was cool to just add me to a giant blind carbon copy list in their g-mail and send messages about their launch or book or whatever. And it's not that I wouldn't necessarily want to hear about that stuff, but I want to consent. So here’s the thing, if you're going to have an email list, have an email list and go get a service. I recommend ActiveCampaign, but you can use whatever you like. The key here is that using an email service provider will allow people to consensually opt-in to your email marketing. Then, you don't have to be afraid to send people your emails because they actually asked for them. As I said, this is one of my favorite rants. You can look at it from multiple perspectives and I hope it gives you the courage to email your list. Let's get into the episode.Re-Release B08: How to Build Brand Authenticity with Kronda AdairRe-Release B08: How to Build Brand Authenticity with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b08

Today, I want to talk to you about letting your freak flag fly. I know that many of you hold back elements of who you are, especially if you're shy or introverted or new in business and just not feeling confident. Maybe you're terrified to put yourself out there and let the world know about your unique qualities that perhaps some people might find weird. What I want to tell you is that those are the things that will bring the right people to you. In this episode, I make the case for you to share who you are and be real about it. Realness is one of our core values here at Karvel Digital. After you listen to this episode, check out my interview with Veronica Yanhs called Orgasmic Operations. See how she has woven kink, which is her lifestyle, into her business branding and is making bank because of it. So enjoy the episode, and I'll see you on the flip side.Re-Release B07: How to Choose A Project Management Tool with Kronda AdairRe-Release B07: How to Choose A Project Management Tool with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b07

This is an especially valuable episode if you’re a service CEO and you're feeling maxed out on serving clients one-on-one or generally burnt out on providing your service. If leveraged at the right time and executed correctly, launching a course can significantly boost your bottom line. The extra revenue can create space in the business to effectively scale faster and wiser. That said, launching a course without a strategy can have the exact opposite effect you’re looking for, costing you endless amounts of time and money. In this episode, I share with you tips for deciding if a course is right for your business. I give you the most important things to consider so you can feel confident moving forward if indeed launching a course is in your future.Re-Release B02: Things to Consider Before Outsourcing with Kronda AdairRe-Release B02: Things to Consider Before Outsourcing with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b02

If you're a service-based business owner, and you're ready to finally create more time in space in your business, there are things you should consider before you outsource your marketing. The idea of outsourcing your marketing is a conversation I’ve had many times over the years. Something I always remind folks of is that even though marketing is difficult, and you might be frustrated and struggling with it right now, it is well worth your time and effort to get to know your audience and understand them yourself before trying to outsource this vital task. Having a solid understanding of your audience will save you time and money in the long run especially when you start working with an external marketing team. Check out this episode for the key things you’ll want to consider before you outsource your marketing and avoid the pitfalls of outsourcing too soon.Re-Release E24: Season 1 & 2 Episode Guide with Kronda AdairRe-Release E24: Season 1 & 2 Episode Guide with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/24

Think of it as your Episode Guide for planning the order you want to binge the rest of the episodes in. And the fun doesn’t stop there. Recently, I asked my audience for questions they would like me to answer on the podcast so I wrap things up with answers to some very thoughtful questions. Between those two things, you are sure to get value from this episode. Before we jump in, I just want to say thank you to all of our listeners. Thank you so much for listening, for sharing, and for helping spread the word about the show. I really appreciate you.E37: Avoid Common Business 'Gotchas' with Kronda AdairE37: Avoid Common Business 'Gotchas' with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/37

I am coming off of my self-imposed break to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the podcast. I wanted to come back and celebrate with you and also debut a new feature of the podcast that's going to make it even easier to take action on all of the advice that I've been offering you over the past year. Today we're talking about 'gotchas.' This topic is inspired by many conversations and things that I've seen both in discussions with clients and with prospects on the internet over the past couple of weeks. I wanted to have an episode where I talk about things people do that they don't really think much about but come back to bite you in your business. I hope this episode will help you not to make the same business mistakes.Re-Release E21: Financial Success and Social Good with Trudi LebronRe-Release E21: Financial Success and Social Good with Trudi LebronGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/21

Trudi is a diversity, equity, and inclusion consultant and trainer. And y'all, she's not new at this. She has been around a while, and she knows this stuff inside and out. Trudi helps business owners of all sizes build equity and inclusion into the business model. This is not something that you just go to a training on and then you're done. If you really want to do this right, you have to make a long-term commitment to doing the work. If building more equity into your business is something you feel passionate about but are overwhelmed with all the information out there, then this is going to be a great conversation for you. Trudi shares some practical steps for getting started and also shares with us her concept of “Explicit Inclusion” as a method of developing your niche in marketing. I love Trudi because she helps folks understand that this isn’t a choice between having financial success and doing social good. This is about choosing both, and in this episode, Trudi breaks it all down for us.Re-Release E20: Top Alternatives to Recruiting New Employees with Kronda AdairRe-Release E20: Top Alternatives to Recruiting New Employees with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/20

I am far from being an expert on this topic. However, I have valuable insights to share, having gone from being a solopreneur to leading a team on my own. In this episode, I do some myth-busting of common advice you’ll hear from the ‘business gurus” and you’ll hear my approach to building a team of skilled professionals that are committed to seeing your business succeed.

Cindy has somehow managed to fit two lifetimes of experience in the finance, corporate government, and entrepreneurial spaces into her unique journey. And she has infused all of that experience and knowledge into Published and Paid, her program that helps you get established as a contributing author at major publications. Cindy demystifies the world of writing. She offers excellent insights into the differences between being the writer of an article verse being ‘featured’ or ‘mentioned,’ and why that matters. If you’ve been eager to build your authority and establish yourself as a leader in your space, Cindy’s advice is one you’ll want to listen to closely. She takes an anti-capitalism approach and gives you tons of information for free, but if you to learn how to do it better, faster, and get all to shortcut, that’s when it’s time to check out her membership. I love so many things about this conversation with Cindy, but I especially appreciate her focus on helping entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses instead of staying broke and undervalued. Be prepared to listen to this episode a few times to mine all the gems from Cindy. Enjoy! A new cohort of Content Boot Camp is starting.

Find out on this week’s episode as I share with you my experience running a business completely cut off from the entire team. I’ll let you in on a bit of secret; documentation and a well-trained, empowered team make all the difference in the world. Today’s episode could have been a sad tale filled with chaos and miscommunication, but instead, you’ll hear how my team was able to handle all the core business functions without me. Sure, we had to make a few pivots here and there, but overall we made it through with minimal impact on our clients and the business. I hope this episode serves as a warning, but more so inspiration to create documentation in your business. If you’re ever stuck and completely cut off from your team like I was, you’ll be grateful you took the time to create your SOPs. That same documentation will also give you the freedom to intentionally step away from your business whenever you want simply because you want to take a break. Now that’s gold. Let’s get into it.

In this episode, I take you through my top recommended digital tools. We start with the basics, what’s a tech stack, and why do you need one? I then go into key considerations for choosing a tech stack and I’ll share with you what technology tools we actually use at Karvel Digital. We wrap things up with a discussion around choosing tools based on the stage of business you’re in. If you've been feeling overwhelmed with technology lately, this episode is for you.

It's true upgrading your technology can help propel your business forward and help you achieve new levels of freedom and success.

I know a percentage of CEOs out there are course and program junkies, so if that's you, this episode will be especially valuable. It can be addictive and somewhat comforting to keep signing up for programs where you're held in a container and don't have to step out on your own. Don’t get me wrong. I’m a big fan of coaching. I definitely believe that you should always have somebody coaching you who is further along than you, somebody who can show you how to avoid the inevitable road bumps that come up when building a business. But I also think it’s easy to get stuck in the pattern of going from program to program, especially when you’ve got endless amounts of marketing hitting your inbox or filling your Facebook feed. All this pressure to join the next big thing keeps you jumping from one program to the next without really being mindful if it’s actually the right move for you and your business. In this episode, I share the signs to look out for that you’ve maxed out on masterminds and how to be more intentional about what you do next in your business so that you can quickly take it to the next level.E34: How’s Your Follow-Up Game?

Knowing how to build this relationship continually is extremely important for any business. Like always, I cut through the fluff and give you actionable advice to take to the bank. I share with you four things that you need to have to ensure every lead who comes into your business is followed up with appropriately. And for those that are ambitious and want extra credit, keep listening for a fifth bonus piece of advice that will supercharge your marketing and your follow-up.

The reason I wanted to talk about this topic is that the coaching industry is a shit show. Because you don't have to hold any particular credentials to be a coach, it's the wild west out there. Additionally, having credentials doesn't necessarily make you a better coach either. I'm seeing many people who have made investments in coaching really aren't happy with what they're getting. It's a given that we're all going to make bad investments in our businesses. You just can't escape it. However, you can be more decisive. In today's podcast, I give you seven tips or things to think about as you are trying to consider who you want to guide you to your next level of business.E32: 5 Things You Need to Automate in Your Service Business with Kronda AdairE32: 5 Things You Need to Automate in Your Service Business with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/32

Today's topic is all about the things you should stop doing and begin automating in your business. Because of the nature of the service business, doing things manually and without automation may be costing you valuable time and money. There are all sorts of benefits of automation and almost no downside. Anything you can do to be more efficient and save your people power for the things that only people can do, the better it will be for you, your business, and profit. Lastly, automation will help you avoid burnout. In today's episode, we talk about when you should automate your business and some methods and software that can help you get started. I give you five things you should be automating in your business, from improving your scheduling to streamlining your onboarding process.E31: Riding the Waves of Marketing with Kronda AdairE31: Riding the Waves of Marketing with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/31

Today, we are talking about riding the waves of marketing. The most current wave that we're riding right now is an update to Apple's iOS around privacy, and there's lots of time and energy going into discussions on how we're going to get through this. Let's face it. There will always be a new wave to ride, so we might as well have a clear strategy in place to get through them. At the moment, it's the iOS update. Before that, it was GDPR, which was when Europe created stricter rules around email marketing. Before that, it was how Facebook pages became less effective because they throttled the algorithms. Before that, we didn't have the internet, and we had to use carrier pigeons, right.You get the idea. *wink* In today's episode, I share with you how to deal with each new wave that comes along so you can rise above any challenges and continue to grow a thriving business.E30: Prepping for Your Technology Upgrade with Kronda AdairE30: Prepping for Your Technology Upgrade with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/30

I see it time and time again when working with clients in our done-for-you services. They rush into tech upgrades that they soon regret and make costly avoidable mistakes. It's true upgrading your technology can help propel your business forward and help you achieve new levels of freedom and success. But if you want to get the best possible results with the least amount of stress, you must think strategically about your upgrades and put some intentional effort into planning upfront. In this episode, I share with you five things that will help you prepare for a technology upgrade, whether that's upgrading from Squarespace to WordPress or going from having no automation to automating any of the processes in your business.E29: Getting Things Done with Kronda AdairE29: Getting Things Done with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/29

However, adopting a DIY approach can cost you more time and money in the long run. In this episode, I talk about different strategies for getting things done in your business, specifically, what's the difference between DIYing a project and hiring someone to either do it with you or do it for you. Knowing when to use each of these strategies in your business is vital. I often hear from folks frustrated that they can't afford "done-for-you" services, and they think a "done-with-you" solution is the next best thing. Well, that's not always the case. It's essential you first consider your stage of business and actual skill level to ensure a "done-with-you" approach will produce the results you desire for your business. When you're early in your entrepreneurial journey, it can be tough to stop DIYing everything. One of the quickest ways to level up your business is to stay in your zone of genius and hire people to cover the essentials outside of that zone. After listening to this episode, I hope you'll adopt a strategy that allows you to focus on the things only you can do and feel confident employing "done-with-you" and "done-for-you" services when it makes sense for the growth of your business.E28: Hiring and Retaining Your Dream Team with Kimone NapierE28: Hiring and Retaining Your Dream Team with Kimone NapierGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/28

If you're like most, and the answer is yes, then you've experienced today's topic first hand. In this episode, we're talking about Sunk Cost Fallacy and how it can be detrimental to your business if you don't get a handle on it. Building awareness around this behavior is only half the battle. You also need to learn how to decide when it's time to cut your losses. In this episode, we talk about three significant ways I see this show up in business all the time. I also share specific examples from my business when I had to cut the cord, cut my losses, and move on, despite it not being easy or cheap to do. Dealing with these decisions is tough and can slow you and your business down, but there are things you can do to minimize their occurrence, and we talk about them in this episode.E26: How to Avoid and Escape Burnout with Kronda AdairE26: How to Avoid and Escape Burnout with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/26

We’ll be returning in June with Season 3 and until then, I'm sharing with you a few gems from the vault to carry you over the bridge between season 2 and 3. Today's topic is one of my favorite rants. It’s about getting up the courage to email your list. Have you started your email list but aren’t quite sure what to say or feel afraid that someone will get mad at you for emailing them? Those are two of the most common fears I hear about email marketing. In this episode, I give you some practical tips for getting over that fear, but before we dive in I quickly want to touch on the flip side of this fear for a minute. If you’re one of those people that just emails “willy-nilly” to folks who haven't really consented to hear from you about your business or whatever it is you're emailing about—please stop that. I've had a few different people lately assume that because we've had interactions around business, it was cool to just add me to a giant blind carbon copy list in their g-mail and send messages about their launch or book or whatever. And it's not that I wouldn't necessarily want to hear about that stuff, but I want to consent. So here’s the thing, if you're going to have an email list, have an email list and go get a service. I recommend ActiveCampaign, but you can use whatever you like. The key here is that using an email service provider will allow people to consensually opt-in to your email marketing. Then, you don't have to be afraid to send people your emails because they actually asked for them. Like I said, this is one of my favorite rants. You can look at it from multiple perspectives and I hope it gives you the courage to email your list. Let's get into the episode.B08: Be Authentic in Your Business with Kronda AdairB08: Be Authentic in Your Business with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b08

Today, I want to talk to you about letting your freak flag fly. I know that a lot of you hold back elements of who you are, especially if you're shy or introverted or new in business and just not feeling confident. Maybe you're really afraid to put yourself out there and let the world know about your special qualities that maybe some people might find weird. What I want to tell you is that those are the things that are going to bring the right people to you. In this episode, I'm going to make the case for you to share who you are and be real about it. Realness is one of our core values here at Karvel Digital. After you listen to this episode, check out my interview with Veronica Yanhs called, Orgasmic Operations, and see how she has woven kink, which is her lifestyle, into her business branding and is making bank because of it. So enjoy the episode and I'll see you on the flip side.B07: Why You Need a Project Management Tool for Your Business with Kronda AdairB07: Why You Need a Project Management Tool for Your Business with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b07

If you don't, I'm going to respectfully suggest that you think hard about trying one out. I know many of you probably are thinking that you only need to use one if you have some sort of online-based business or if you're in the tech space, but that’s not the case. I think any business can really benefit from using these tools. It doesn't matter if you're a landscaper, a dance studio, shoe shop, make custom bicycles, or whatever it is, using a project management tool is a smart thing to do for your business. In this episode, I share with you three reasons why using a project management tool is good for your business, plus a few recommendations for free tools you can get started with today.E24: Top Takeaways from Season 1 and 2 with Kronda AdairE24: Top Takeaways from Season 1 and 2 with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/24

If you're new to the podcast, if this happens to be your first episode, then you're in for a treat because I'm going to give you the Cliff Notes on all the other episodes. You’ll then have a guide to decide the order you want to binge the rest of the episodes in. And the fun doesn’t stop there. Recently, I asked my audience for questions they would like me to answer on the podcast so I wrap things up with answers to some very thoughtful questions. Between those two things, you are sure to get value from this episode. Before we jump in, I just want to say thank you to all of our listeners. As I record this episode, we've just broken 4,000 all time downloads! Thank you so much for listening, for sharing, and for helping spread the word about the show. I really appreciate you.

My guest on the show today, Dr. Leena Bakshi, is no different. After seeing the limited access that underrepresented students have to math and science and the inequitable systems within education, Leena decided to start STEM 4 Real, a nonprofit professional learning organization committed to combining STEM content learning and leadership with principles of social justice. You’ll definitely share this episode with the teachers and the administrators in your life. Lena and I started working together about five months ago, and we've had the pleasure of working to align all of their business technology to support their business goals. In this episode, Leena shares reflections on her entrepreneurial path and how getting started, even when you don't know all the steps to reach your goal, helped propel her business forward. She also talks about the dangers of ‘either or thinking,’ and offers three actionable steps for teachers to build more equity into their teaching that we can all learn from.E22: Marketing Your Business Without Social Media with Kronda AdairE22: Marketing Your Business Without Social Media with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/22

Trudi is a diversity, equity and inclusion consultant and trainer. And y'all, she's not new at this. She has been around a while and she really knows this stuff inside and out. Trudi helps business owners of all sizes build equity and inclusion into the framework of their business. This is not something that you just go to a training on and then you're done. If you really want to do this right, you have to make a long-term commitment to doing the work. Trudi helps guide business owners in that commitment and the result is having a better business culture that centers equity. If building more equity into your business is something you feel passionate about but are overwhelmed with all the information out there, then this is going to be a great conversation for you. Trudi shares some practical steps for getting started and also shares with us her concept of “Explicit Inclusion” as a method of developing your niche in marketing. We cover lots of ground in our conversation from signs you have a toxic company culture to the problematic use of personality tests in hiring. Trudi breaks it all down for us in this episode and reminds us that you don’t have to choose between having a successful business and doing good in the world. She’s proof you can do both.E20: Alternatives to Hiring Full-Time Employees with Kronda AdairE20: Alternatives to Hiring Full-Time Employees with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/20

That said, I do have some valuable insights to share with you that I’ve developed over the past nine month going from being a solopreneur to leading a team. In this episode, I do some mythbusting of common advice you’ll hear from the ‘business gurus” and you’ll hear my approach to building a team of skilled professionals that are committed to seeing your business succeed. If hiring a team feels like a river you can’t seem to cross, I’ve got some alternative routes and stepping stones for you that might just be the thing to get you to the other side.E19: Getting Published and Paid with Cindy Rodriguez ConstableE19: Getting Published and Paid with Cindy Rodriguez ConstableGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/#

Cindy has somehow managed to fit two lifetimes of experience in the finance, corporate government, and entrepreneurial spaces into her unique journey. And she has infused all of that experience and knowledge into Published and Paid, her new program that helps you get established as a contributing author at major publications as a long-term sustainable way to grow your business. In this episode, Cindy demystifies the world of writing and explains the difference between being the writer of an article vs being ‘featured’ or ‘mentioned’ and why that matters. If you’ve been eager to build your authority and establish yourself as a leader in your space, Cindy’s advice is one you’ll want to listen closely too. She takes an anti-capitalism approach and gives you tons of information for free, but if you want to learn how to do it better, faster and get all to shortcut, that’s when it’s time to check out her membership. I love so many things about this conversation with Cindy but I especially appreciate her focus on helping entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses instead of staying broke and undervalued. Be prepared to listen to this episode a few times to mine all the gems from Cindy.

Most of the people who come to me and come into my programs are struggling with attracting their ideal customers. When you’re first starting out, learning to market your business effectively can be the biggest hurdle to get over. Like most, I’m sure you got into business because you're good at what you do and didn’t anticipate needing to become a marketer and salesperson at the same time. Putting yourself out there and learning how to market your services isn’t easy so don't cannibalize all that hard work by having a bad client experience. In fact, quite the opposite is possible. Delivering a quality experience that’s rooted in empathy can have lasting, long-term benefits on your business. In this episode, I share with you my thoughts on why having an amazing client experience is so important, plus I’ll give you some concrete examples of what this can look like in your business. I also share with you the steps I’ve taken over the last year to improve our client experience here at Karvel Digital and the impact it’s had on our marketing. And hey, it wouldn’t be our show if I didn’t also sprinkle in a little automation for you. I’ve got some tips for making your on-boarding process feel more personal without adding extra burden on yourself or team to execute.

Find out on this week’s episode as I share with you my experience running a business completely cut off from the entire team. I’ll let you in on a little secret, documentation and a well trained, empowered team makes all the difference in the world. Today’s episode could have been a sad tale filled with chaos and miscommunication but instead you’ll hear how my team was able to handle all the core business functions without me. Sure, we had to make a few pivots here and there, but overall we made it through with minimal impact to our clients and the business. I hope this episode serves as a bit of warning, but more so inspiration to create documentation in your business. If you’re ever stuck and completely cut off from your team like I was, you’ll be grateful you took the time to create your SOPs. That same documentation will also give you the freedom to intentionally step away from your business whenever you want simply because you want to take a break. Now that’s gold. Let’s get into it.E15: Building a Sustainable Wellness Business with Adrianna LockeE15: Building a Sustainable Wellness Business with Adrianna LockeGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/15

If you don't know what that means, listen in because I explain it all in this episode. First, a shout out and a thank you to Maggie Bergen for suggesting this topic. Maggie wrote in and said, “Every service-based business working online will need a set of digital tools. Smaller businesses need X, larger ones might need Y, your recommendations probably fall into a couple of categories based on the businesses size or products. And since our zone of genius is providing the service, and we have no idea how to set up a smooth digital backend, a primer explaining the categories of digital tools we should be aware of and how they might work together, would be fantastic.” I thought that was an amazing suggestion, so here we are. Alright, y'all settle in because this is going to be epic. You're probably going to want to take some notes and listen through multiple times. We start with the basics, what’s a tech stack and why do you need one? I then go into key considerations for choosing a tech stack and I’ll share with you what technology tools we actually use at Karvel Digital. We wrap things up with a discussion around choosing tools based on the stage of business you’re in. If you've been feeling overwhelmed with technology lately, this episode is for you. I take you through everything step-by-step and give you plenty of resources along the way. Let’s dive in.E13: Protect Your Peace by Setting Better Boundaries with Kronda AdairE13: Protect Your Peace by Setting Better Boundaries with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/13

As a service-based business owner, it is vital that you learn to set and actively maintain your boundaries in order to avoid professional burnout. In this episode, you’ll hear my thoughts on why you need clear boundaries and if you’re struggling with “giving too much,” or you find clients are constantly asking for more and more free labor, I’ve got some great tips for you. We cover strategies for dealing with “energy vampires,” and how to stop wasting time with people that want to “pick your brain,” to name a few. It’s time to intentionally protect your energy and learn to leverage your content as a tool to establish and maintain your boundaries.E12: Using the Power of Focus to Grow Your BusinessE12: Using the Power of Focus to Grow Your BusinessGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/12

I've been hearing a lot of very successful entrepreneurs talk about focus and how it’s a core element to what you need to actually succeed. As I push on towards one of my goals of building a million dollar business, I thought it would be helpful for you to explore with me the areas where I plan to renew or create more focus in my business. If you're aspiring to grow your business this year, focus might be just the thing you need to make that happen. Imagine how different your business could look at the end of the year if you were to start narrowing your focus now and taking daily action toward achieving your goals.B06: How to Create an Effective Customer Journey with Kronda AdairB06: How to Create an Effective Customer Journey with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b06

I hope it serves as a reminder that you don't always have to be creating something new. If you've made something valuable, keep sharing it. Now, if you're curious, what goes on inside my Content Bootcamp, you're going to love this episode. I'm sharing part of one of our weekly coaching calls from earlier this month, where we talk about the value of intentionally crafting your customer journey and how it can guide your marketing content creation efforts. Each week we start by sharing wins and then dig into the topic for the week. After that I answer any and all questions before I send everyone off to keep taking action.Enjoyed this sneak peak into Content Bootcamp.B05: 3 Uncomfortable Truths in Business with Kronda AdairB05: 3 Uncomfortable Truths in Business with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b05

Outsourcing marketing is a conversation I’ve had many times over the years.

This will save you plenty of time and money in the long run.B01: A Framework for a Solid Business Foundation with Kronda AdairB01: A Framework for a Solid Business Foundation with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/b01

In this episode, we’ll cover all the bases from why all-in-one tools aren’t necessarily the best, to why hiring a developer that’s skilled at using the latest tools, can be a bad idea for your business. I’m sharing my insider tips on the podcast that will help you avoid expense mistakes when it comes to getting your website built for your small business. It’s time to move beyond simply saying, “I want a website for my business,” and instead start making CEO decisions to invest in technology that will drive results.E06: Money Mapping and Setting Financial Goals with Megan HaleE06: Money Mapping and Setting Financial Goals with Megan HaleGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/6

We delve into content creation and bust some myths along the way. Here’s the thing, it can be hard to decide what content to create and where to post it. When you have a clear strategy for creating content assets, you can leverage those assets in many different ways. If you find yourself stuck writing mindless content just for the sake of it and feeling dissatisfied with the clients you’re attracting, this episode is for you. You’ll learn how to create content that shows your audience that you understand their problems and have the solution they need. Once you have the right strategy defined, get the right tools in place, and get your systems dialed in, you’ll start seeing your content assets deliver results like we have seen here at Karvel Digital.E04: Get Better Results by Asking Better Questions with Kronda AdairE04: Get Better Results by Asking Better Questions with Kronda AdairGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/4

It can be extremely powerful in business to ask the right questions to the right people. Their insight can lead to big leaps forward in achieving your goals. Here’s the thing, the quality of your question determines the quality of the answer, which determines the quality of your result. I see a lot of really subpar questions happening out there on the internet and I want to help you level up from 101 questions to 301 questions so that you can get better, faster results.E03: The Bridge to Digital Marketing with Chris DavisE03: The Bridge to Digital Marketing with Chris DavisGet full show notes and more information at: karveldigital.com/3
