  • My quick tip: bite size pieces. I personally have a TON of websites and a ton of projects but they all center around women of color and I DID NOT do them all at the same time. Pick one, start with that, then focus on the others. Its up to you to decide which one to pick, but having someone guide you through the process and hone in on one lucrative idea / target market is the advantage of finding a mentor and/or coach.

    If you haven't already done so, consider signing up for the Sistas Who Sell 7 Day Challenge and or SistaSense Circle. -lh
    • Considered YES! I want to take the course so bad that I gathered all my daughters old close and went to the consignment hoping they would give me a good price...can you believe it...they only took 2 items for 20.00...yikes. So I want to but a a single mom i am looking for a way OUT the rut but then need the money to invest in the learning...so its discourging bu I will find a way to get in on one of the sister circles.

      Last night I spent some time praying and decided I wanted to
      1. Help men and women in the rut wo desparelty want to get out..business minded like myself.
      2. Motivate moms single and married on how to juggle the masses and keep their head afloat
      3. Educate moms on how to still FOCUS on them in the midst of growing a business from home, weight loss primiarily.

      Most of the ideas stem from what I am dealing with right now! My first series of content jotted out some videos,blog content specially targetted 'Me' a single mommy getting out the rut and tips on how to keep focused and track despite obstacles unique to being a single parent. I placed each video on my calendar on a schedule as to when i will post them and what social networks I will upload them to.
      I love it..plus I CAN RELATE to the content! ha.

      My problem is how will all this content equate to money when my main business is a MLM. The only way i get paid is to retail or recruit into my primary business. So even though this will inspire women who are 'like me' i don see how it will increase my sales or recruitment goals. In MLM people are drawn to content that labels you an leader. A leader in MLM or in that primary business.

      Maybe at the end of each video I can tag it to say "to work with me directly checkout www.mypassionyourprofit.com to learn about howto work with me one on one"???? Or like how Lashanda has images of her blogs on her videos have a way to figure out how to do that with my company logos.I dont know but i need to figure this out so i can start making some kind of money.

      So i have considered doing videos specificially geared to my primary business which is beachbody a 400million dollar informercial company. Their products,marketing and compensation rock. Anyway i considered doing videos directly related to my primiary business but then that would only interest people who have already heard of beachbody or interested in doing busines with them. I dont know if i should focus on beachbody or maybe i can do a mixture of content because I am a BB rep, single mother trying to help others get out the rut ha! I have a headache.

      Sorry for babbling your ear off...just glad i have friends who really care about my success :)
      • Kaisha,

        In addition to some of the things you mentioned, you should work on building your list. This is a list of people who are interested in what you have to say and offer. Instead of giving all of your content away completely free, consider creating reports, e-books, video tutorials and/or hosting webinars. In order for people to get access to this great content of yours, they will have to supply their name and email address, in other words, get on your list. As you build relationships, you will be able to successfully cross sell your other products and services, whatever they might be.
  • Sounds like you're wrestling with whether to keep your passions and interests separate or whether to combine them into one business/blog/website. I look at it like this. These different passions and interests, although they appear to be completely different and unrelated, combine to create a unique mission and vision developed by a unique person, you. This is what you want, Kaisha. You don't want to look like everyone else and do what everyone else is doing. I am actually a woman business owner who would love to lose weight, so it's not as off as you think, but I faced the exact same dilemma.

    Here I was in software development/IT and absolutely loving it, but I wanted to create a business that helped and inspired women to achieve their life goals. Hmmmm. So, after wrestling as you are now, I decided to just be who I am, which is a software developer who loves to help women. So, I started Gems Shine Consulting. You have these different passions and interests for a reason. It is what makes you you. Don't fight it. Embrace it. Besides, especially when you're just getting started and until you get the hang of it, it is just too much work to keep up different blogs/websites etc.

    Just be you! Good luck!
