Has your business started to feel less like a gripping masterpiece and more like a B-movie flop?
You’re not alone.
Once upon a time, many entrepreneurs were the heroes of their own epic tales, filled with action, passion, and cliffhangers that left them eager for more.
Now, many of them feel stuck in an uninspired sequel no one asked for.
The clients that once rushed to you like rabid fans at a movie premiere now seem as elusive as a low-budget indie film with no distribution.
Payments are delayed like a film stuck in development hell.
You begin to worry that your business has lost its blockbuster appeal, leaving you with more chills of fear than thrills of excitement.
Is it possible to turn this saga around?
Absolutely. Let’s start with a litmus test.
In my Obsessed work, we explore the concept of creating a business that’s obsession-worthy for your audience…and for YOU.
But it’s not all red carpets and champagne toasts. There’s effort, rewrites, and even reshoots involved. But it should still feel like an adventure, an epic journey with a purpose, where you’re both the star and the director.
Feeling like you’ve lost the plot of your own business? Here are some questions to help you find your way back to opening-night-levels of excitement:
1). What’s your “origin story” – the original reason you started your business?
2.) How has the plot evolved since you started your business? When did you begin feeling less “obsessed” with your work?
3). What would make your business feel like a “smash hit” for you? (Example: more profit, more opportunities, more joy, more freedom, etc.)
4.) Are you currently following the crowd, listening to what everyone else tells you to do, or carving your own path?
5.) Do you feel like your offers (products, services, programs, etc.) are show-stoppers? You love what you’re offering, and your audience does too?
6). If you’re feeling “less than obsessed” about things, what new twists could bring more excitement to your business?
7). How are you currently investing in your “star performance”? Are you working with mentors/coaches or taking programs and courses that feel exciting?
8). How are you engaging with your fan base (customers and clients)?
9). What’s the feedback on your latest releases? How do your clients/customers feel about your offers, content, etc.?
10). What have you learned from both your flops and successes?
Grab your popcorn and take the director’s chair. It’s time to turn your business back into the blockbuster it’s meant to be.
Consider these questions a sneak peek into what could be the next exciting chapter, one that feels more like a standing ovation than a box office flop.
p.s. This month, I supported clients by helping them get Obsessed with their business again. One client even closed $80k in business in 36 hours using my copy suggestions.
I’d love to support you in your business, too. Applications are open for my Obsessed Squad Mastermind starting this September. Check out all the details and apply here. Let’s put the obsession back into your business!
