Following on from last week’s consideration of your profitable skills, talents, and traits, this week we’ll dig into a practical prompt: what are some ways you can increase your income?
Could you …
Target another market with an existing product?
Add a new sales channel? (Start selling in a place you’re not yet selling)
Add a new revenue stream? Perhaps affiliate income or referral fees?
Create a course or programme?
Create appropriate upsells for your sales staff to suggest to clients?
Upskill yourself or your staff so you can offer new services or products?
Brainstorm awhile. See what you come up with.
Here’s to a profitable 2025!
Why and How to Use These Prompts
Getting into a better place in thinking about money is a vital first step to facing our numbers and then doing something to better them - all the stuff I'm here to help you with.
Use these prompts to gently explore your feelings about money at your own pace. Remember, the point is to dig beneath the surface for yourself.
Brew up a cuppa, put on some chill music, light a candle or incense, get a notebook and pen, and give it a go. Consider setting a timer for just 15 minutes and write whatever comes into your head.
For some prompts, you might prefer to meditate on them instead. Or ponder them whilst doing the washing up or walking the dog. Or you might want to talk them through with a trusted friend. Do whatever works for you to help you get to a better money mindset.
