Running a business is rarely a straight path. There are twists and turns and bumps in the road, sometimes huge boulders in the way. And while we're on this path, sometimes - often times, actually - we find that the lessons we learn while winding our way along lead us in a different direction than where we first thought we were heading. So how do you know when to follow that new direction, and when to stay the course you were already on? Well, today we're talking all about when to pivot in your business. Twists and turns and bumps and boulders are normal! Sometimes we think that our journey is not typical. It is! It's typical because there is no such thing as typical! We all need to figure out along the way what are the twists and turns that we are willing to follow, and when do we need to jump onto a new path! It's going to be different for everyone but very few successful businesses started out doing the same thing that they ended up doing. "You are going to have to climb mountains and scale tall buildings no matter what path you take." - Stacey Ogden Business is hard. Despite what it said in that Facebook ad you just saw, there is no key to overnight success in business. It's hard work. It will make you question your decisions, but that doesn't mean they're wrong. It will make you question your abilities, but that doesn't mean you're not cut out for this. It will make you question your intelligence, your dedication, yourself in every way possible, but that doesn't mean you have to change. "Don't confuse the hard for the need to pivot." - Stacey Ogden Think about the long term. What would life be like if you continue on the path you're on? What would it look like if you pivot to a new path? "You're creating a business for yourself. It should be a business you want." - Stacey Odgen What do you feel called to do? What's your heart telling you? Is there a path you ignored that you still think about? Is there something that keeps you up at night wishing you could do, but it just doesn't fit with your current business? Make the call. You can sit on a decision indefinitely. It's not good for you, your business, and the people around you. You have to make a decision. As Earl Smooter so eloquently said in Sweet Home Alabama, "You can't ride 2 horses with 1 ass." You've got to decide. Let’s Connect! See all that Stacey has to offer at The Busy Mom Collective! Join The Busy Mom Collective Facebook Group and continue the conversation!

Episode Summary With 2018 coming to an end, you've probably heard others talk about planning for the next year but before you start planning, you need to take a look back at this year and really look at the details so that you can look at the big picture! Today, I am walking you through a simple process to look back at your year. Here are four questions to reflect on when you're looking back at your year. What went well in your business this year? What did you do that was a success? This could be things that were unexpected! One example for me was when I rebranded from Busy Mom Collective to Side Hustle Moms. I pivoted the business in March but I didn't pivot the name to match my new vision of what I had for my company. This was a big win for me! All of a sudden, people for finding the podcast because they knew what the podcast was about. Take a look and really take the time to look back at all of the wins no matter how big or small! What didn't go so well? Did you run Facebook ads that didn't work out. Did you hire someone that didn't work out? What did you try this year that didn't work the way you thought. We tend to make this list a lot longer but I want you to think honestly and objectively and stay away from making judgments on yourself. How are my finances? It's time to sit down and look at your books and it can be intimidating but it needs to be done! The reason this is important is because you can really evaluate where your money is going and if it's actually worth it in you current stage of business. Be sure to check out my budget freebie to help you on this task! https://side-hustle-moms.com/budget Why? You can't just look at what went well, what didn't go well, and where your money is going. You have to ask WHY? Why did that went well and the other didn't? If you are racking in the money, why is that? What is it that you did this year that really brought in money. If you are in the red, why? Could that be because of the start up costs that is associated with a business and next year, those costs won't be there? Why is a very important question in any solid year end review.
"If you're looking at next year without reflecting on this year, you're going to find yourself making the same mistakes." - Stacey Odgen

Jenny is a former reading specialist who “retired” from her teaching career when her blogging income far exceeded her salary. Through hard work and dedication, her lifestyle blog, The Melrose Family, became regularly sought out by nationally recognized brands such as Neutrogena, Smuckers, Glad, Costco, Stanley Steamer, Sara Lee and many more. The unique pitching process she developed for working with brands, transformed an empty editorial calendar into one that was completely booked months in advance. Now, she’s combining her passion for teaching with her extensive experience working with brands to help other bloggers do the same via JennyMelrose.com and her podcast, Influencer Entrepreneurs with Jenny Melrose. Where To Find Jenny Online: Website Instagram Facebook Take the Fear out of Live Broadcasting! Episode Summary: Jenny shares how you can repurpose your content and grow your audience without reinventing the wheel! She says how she will use her live broadcast and turn that into a blog post, podcast episode, youtube episode, instagram post, and pinterest! "We put out so much free content, it doesn't make sense to continually put it out there and not use it elsewhere." - Jenny Melrose Your audience is everywhere and you can't possibly be everywhere. With so many platforms available to us, it's crazy to think up new content for each one. Instead, take your one content and tweek it for each audience because they will be just a little bit different. It's all about consistency ladies! When Jenny first started doing live broadcasting, it scared her to death! She is a natural introvert and was nervous messing up on live broadcast! Once she continued to go live as she is, that fear slowly went away and she started getting better and the audience started showing up! "When people can come and know when they can find you at what time and what day, they will be there! Your die hard fans will go there!" - Jenny Melrose Always have a call to action! Jenny goes live every Tuesday at 11 am and she says that she always has a freebie or call to action after her facebook live. This same freebie can also be shared on your podcast, blog, youtube, etc. You always want to build your list because although Facebook and instagram is a great tool to build your audience, when it's taken away, you've just lost a way to get a hold of your audience. Go live on your Facebook page instead of your group. When you go live on your Facebook page, it's much easier to share that in multiple places as well as capture data that is needed to help your business grow. Should you be present on ALL of the social media platforms? Jenny recommends showing on two but choose wisely! For example, if you're looking to be a blogger and attract to sponsored brands, you have to be on instagram because that is what brands are looking for! There is no such thing as an overnight success! Jenny and I share our journey in the blogging world and how long it has taken our blogs to actually create a revenue. It's certainly not as easy as it looks and like anything, you have to build the know like and trust in your audience! At times especially on social media, it can be tough to see others that make it look easy but you really have to dig a little bit deeper into their journey. Just because it looks simple for someone else, it doesn't mean that you're a failure! Everyone's journey is different. Let’s Connect! See all that Stacey has to offer at The Busy Mom Collective!

Carol Gavhane is the co-founder of Asha Blooms, a husband and wife team whose business was born from their walk with secondary infertility. (For those who don't know what that is, it's not being able to achieve or sustain pregnancy the second time around.) Everything about their first child was fairly typical, but trying to add to their family afterwards was incredibly difficult. During those years, They have tried everything under the sun - clean eating, support groups, fertility yoga, acupuncture, meditation, negotiations with God, many visits to the fertility clinic, and on and on. These things did help as they provided comfort or bits of positivity, but there were many dark days thrown in the mix. Who would have ever thought a fertility bracelet found online would help as much as it did? Carol and her husband found solace in the bracelet because it was a tangible reminder we could touch to give us the strength we needed. On Carol's wrist, its weight provided a beacon of hope that she could feel at all times. Similar to what a wedding ring or rosary bead may mean to you, this bracelet meant something. That's when it dawned on them - the intentions behind jewelry matter as much as the beauty of the jewelry itself. Asha Blooms handcrafts purposeful jewelry intended to inspire, uplift, and help you believe. Words and thoughts carry enormous power. Use them to elevate your days. Where To Find Carol Online: Website Instagram Facebook Episode Summary Carol shares her struggles with childcare and juggling a business at the same time. Although she and her husband works on their business full time, the actual hours spent working on the business is also mixed in with taking care of their second child. We talk about how Carol feels guilty for wanting to spend so much time on her business and also want to be present when she's around her children. She certainly is not alone with this mindset! On our call, Carol and I start with her and her husband's daily work schedule. We suggest a routine where they designate days of who spends time caring for the baby while the other works in the office. Another suggestion was to find a friend to pick up their kindergartener from schold and switch off pick up days! Let's get on a schedule! Carol shares how she has about 3 hours in the morning where her and her husband can work on the business while the children are at school or daycare. They both have daily morning meetings together but Carol shares how sometimes she still feels like she's trying to make a full lap for the day! I suggest Carol to create a meeting with her husband at the end of the week and talk about the ups and downs of the last week and prepare for the upcoming week!
"Sometimes, I feel like I don't know what I should prioritize next." Carol Gavhane
Have a big picture day once a month! Another tip I share to Carol is to schedule a monthly meeting with her husband where they talk about the BIG picture of the business and share their goals of the month! Maybe, even turn it into a mini date! Carol and I talk about her top 3 most focused tasks that she can prioritize when they children are away at school. Let’s Connect!

Episode Summary Since it's the first week of November and it's the season for sales especially in the US, I thought we would talk about the age-old question of to discount or not to discount? On the podcast, I am going to talk about both cases and why they both make sense and at the end, I'm going to let you all draw your own opinions. Let's start with the not to discount side. There are people that feel that when you discount your services, you're discounting the value of your services. So, by discounting you are creating less value in the mind of your customer. Another argument I hear is that many of us are running on a shoestring budget and when we discount our services, we are giving up our profit. There is the argument that when you discount you sell more, but there is no guarantee of that! Now, let's talk about the argument for discounting your services. I mentioned previously that often times when you discount your services, you get more people to buy. Black Friday is a perfect example of that! The other argument for discounting is that it makes your product accessible to those that couldn't afford it at full price.
"There is that other benefit of discounting your services is that you reach and help more people!" - Stacey Ogden
Are there options to discounting? Absolutely! One of the big options to discounting is to add more value! An example of that would be adding more to your package at the same price. With the holidays coming up, we have to consider the mindset of people who are buying our products or services. It's a big sale time in the US and what the means with people who are trying to sell anything is that their potential customer is going to be inundated with sales, discounts, offers, upgrades and all sorts of other things! Let's talk about a couple ways that YOU can get more for your holiday buck! If we are talking about trying to get more sales during the holiday, There are a lot of sale techniques that can increase your revenue. A great example of this would be bundling your service or product."Another option to discounting is you can provide services or products that you don't offer any other time of year!" - Stacey Ogden

About the Guest: Alison grew up in a home where creativity flourished and spent many hours of her childhood drawing, painting, sculpting and creating. She spent weekends in the woods at her family cabin, running through ferns and using her imagination to the fullest. Academics were always important in her home too, so she pursued her career and stumbled upon her wonderful full-time job at a local non-profit (where she still work today). Alison's creative life was always there, on the side – She took art classes at night and on weekends – She made things for her home, herself, and for friends. That imagination from her childhood was (and still is) an important lifeline for her.
How to Connect with Alison:
Website Facebook InstagramEpisode Summary:
Alison shares how she feels like she's never doing enough. A lot of that comes downs to prioritizing her tasks. For example, when she is focusing on her business, she feels that there is not enough time somewhere else. So, how can she get everything done and feel that she has done enough?! Alison also shares that she works 4 full-time days at her job and stays home once a week to work on her business. On the day that she is home, her children are not with her and stay at daycare. We talk about the guilt that some mothers may have with staying home while your children are in daycare. This is the time Alison spends on herself and on her business and it's so important for her self-care! Since Monday is the only day Alison has to work on herself and her business, we go over her daily routine and find out how to best prioritize the little time she does have. How many of us struggle with our daily to-do lists? Alison shares how she manages her to do list but struggles with figuring out which tasks are more important than the other! I recommend choosing a day in the week and write down your tasks of the week instead of creating that list the day of. When we love what we do, we never stop working! How many of you relate to this? But, the reality is that if we don't stop working and forget about ourselves, we can get burned out and we don't want that. Alison and I talk about creating a hard stop time for yourself. Having that time limit for yourself really helps you focus on what needs to get done!"It's ok to not set your hard stop by time and instead do it by tasks." - Stacey Odgen
Alison and I talk about content creation and the time it takes to create new content. One of the best solutions to that is to repurpose your content! We talk about how to create one main content and send them out through a blog post, newsletter, podcast, video, and so much more!Let’s Connect!

Episode Summary As someone with a side hustle, I am sure many of us have a dream to eventually quit your full-time and completely run your own business full time, but for many reasons including financially, this option may not be in the cards right now. Today, I am sharing some tips on how to stay positive when you feel "stuck" in your full-time job. The first thing I suggest anyone to start doing when you're feeling stuck is, when you're at your full-time job, do a good job! I'll admit that I've gone through phases at work when I was not giving it my all and I wasn't being the best me. When I realized that I needed to step up and value the work for MYSELF, I was able to shake off those bad vibes and get back into a groove where I was able to put effort and energy in everything that I did. Leave work at work. This can be difficult especially for caseworkers, nurses, teachers, etc. As a teacher, I don't call my students my kids for no reason. I feel personally responsible even if they are not currently in my care so it can be difficult sometimes to not bring work at home. Now, if you feel that you are needing a mental break, have a process that you go through to leave work at work. For me, every day before I leave work, I take a walk around my classroom and I straighten things up in a certain order. This lets my brain know that it's the end of the day and you can now focus on something else other than work! Make a plan! If you are those that want to leave your job but you can't for whatever reason, then create a plan and have something in writing. If you know you need to make x amount of dollars every month than you have a goal!
"Having that income goal can also be a way for you to motivate yourself to build your business, stronger, better, and faster!" - Stacey Ogden
Before leaving your job, don't burn your bridges! Although you can tend to mentally sign out and withdrawal from everyone, remember that these connections at your current job could also lead you to new clients! Download your free exit strategy checklist! Let things go! One of the things that I hear a lot from clients that are holding them back is guilt. Why is that? They feel guilty for leaving the job that they've spent so much time and money on a degree they may no longer use. Let me tell you, learning is never a waste! There is so such thing as wasted learning whether you use the skills directly or not, the process of learning can only benefit you! My last tip... be grateful! Maybe your current job no longer holds your passions because things change. When I was in college, this whole working online thing was certainly not a thing. Things change and we all grow but remember this, your job is not the enemy, it provides for your family and that's something to be grateful for. No matter what job you're doing, it is currently allowing you the freedom to explore new options for yourself! Let’s Connect! See all that Stacey has to offer at The Busy Mom Collective!
