Welcome to episode 52 of the Scaling To Business Success Podcast!

There are a ton of things to do when it comes to growing an online coaching business, and you strive to make sure that everything is done correctly. Your ads are working, everything is being sent out when you scheduled it, and your website is running smoothly, especially for your landing pages.

But in May 2024, my website was DOWN, and it literally didn't exist.

I freaked out because I didn't know what to do. I needed my website to run ads, and I needed it working asap because in order to grow your business, you need to consistently grow your emailing list.

But during the time that my website was down, I learned some valuable lessons along the way, and that's what I'm sharing with you inside of this week's podcast episode.

Listen in to this week's podcast episode, and let me know if you can relate to the valuable lesson that I learned. Feel free to send me a DM on Instagram (@symoneredmond) to let me know what you thought of this week's episode!

Welcome to episode 51 of the Scaling to Business Success Podcast!

If you didn't know me during the beginning stages of my business, then I was pretty much known as the YouTube girl. If you needed to learn everything about YouTube, then I was the person that you needed to go-to. I was doing webinars and challenges, creating free content online, and also teaching that free content in my YouTube videos.

It was a lot, and I got burned out.

This is why I took a THREE-YEAR hiatus from my channel from 2021 to 2024. And now that I'm back, I want to share with you how I'm using my YouTube channel moving forward.

I've decided to use my YouTube channel as a way to talk about travel, which is something that I love to talk about and experience.

But when it comes to this podcast, this is where I will talk about business growth and things that I do to grow my business, and share with you that all things are possible when you're growing your online coaching business even while working a full-time job.

How do I know? Because I'm doing it right now!

Here are the reasons why I'm getting back on YouTube ⬇️

1 - YouTube allows you to have more visibility without having to pay for views - When I post my videos on YouTube, YouTube is pushing my content out to others and I'm not even fully promoting my videos on other social media platforms. People are seeing me on the platform just from how I'm optimizing my videos when I upload them every single week.

2 - I want to create content that's fun for me - I am no longer subscribing to creating free content on my channel and regurgitating that same content on my social media platforms. I've solely focused on one platform to share my message when it comes to online courses and online coaching programs (this podcast). Talking about travel as a hobby is where I have the most fun, and being able to create content on YouTube is where I feel comfortable

3 - I still use my channel to grow my emailing list - Yes, the videos I create are all about travel content, but I still give the option for others to learn how to start a YouTube channel with my YouTube Channel Checklist freebie that I promote in my videos. You don't have to talk about YouTube on YouTube in order to grow your coaching business. hint hint

4 - What's the difference between my channel and the podcast? - This podcast is about business coaching, growing an online business, growing your email list and running ads, creating online courses and so much more that relates to business. The YouTube channel is about travel, and that's what I like!

5 - I create consistent episodes when I can - I still work a full-time job, and when I can create content and have the free time to do so, then I will. The goal is to be consistent, but sometimes, life gets in the way! But the goal is to create content consistently because that's the only way that you will be able to grow.

Welcome to Episode 41 of the Scaling to Business Success Podcast!

If you're creating offers for your coaching business and you want to create bonuses that get people to BUY and say YES to your program, this episode is for you!

Over the years, I've had to learn how to create bonuses that actually solved different problems and objections that my audience has. This is what a lot of business coaches don't teach and I want to solve this problem for you here.

Don't be like me and create bonuses that are actually courses because no one wants to invest into an online course and have to go through ANOTHER program just to get the desired result. I used to do this with my early YouTube programs and I thought I was doing something correctly.

I was wrong.

Take a listen to this episode and I hope that you learn something new today!

I hope that you enjoy the episode!

Welcome to Episode 40 of the Scaling to Business Success Podcast!

I want you to think about the unsolicited opinions that others have gave you over the last few months or years.

Were they worth it? Did they help you in any way? Did they alter your course of action for your life or your online business?

I want to talk to you about that in this week's episode of the podcast.

When it comes to people's opinions, I personally had to learn this the hard way. Other people's opinions won't help you grow and they won't help you achieve the success and greatness that you want to achieve.

There are so many business coaches who let other's opinions of them stop them from taking action on the idea that they feel would bring them success. When this happens, the idea never takes place and they are still stuck in the same place they were months ago.

If this is something that you're dealing with, then I want to help you in this episode!

Ready to dive in?

Let's do it!

In this episode you'll hear:

• Entrepreneurship is about yourself, not about others. This is your life and your business, and you can do what you want! No more asking for permission, no more asking for opinions on what you should do. You are the star of your business, and it's time to let YOU shine.
• There's a difference between passion and emotion. If you're passionate about something, the idea will eventually come to life. But you also need to have emotional intelligence as well. This will help you move along and acheive your goals and dreams faster.
• Don't care about what others think. I used to have this problem, and it's the reason why it took me so long to do what I wanted to do in business. I was afraid of what others would think, and how they would judge me for doing something different. It'll be okay in the long run.
• Develop a sense of self and start to build confidence. In order to stop thinking about what others think of you, it's time that you start to build your own self confidence and feel okay about what you're doing, even if you think that it could be a bad idea or not.
• Surround yourself with accepting and supporting people. You deserve to have those types of people in your corner. The more supportive people that you have, the better!

I hope that you enjoy the episode!

Welcome to Episode 38 of the Scaling to Business Success Podcast!

If you are thinking about starting a podcast, then this episode is for you! One thing that I can definitely say about having a podcast is that I truly love it! I'm able to reach out to my audience and it doesn't require much from me to make that happen.

Having a podcast and creating weekly episodes for your audience is a great way to grow your audience organically. When you have an online business, you want to make sure that you're consistently showing up for your audience and that you can help them solve their problems with the content that you create.

If you don't know a little of my story, I used to be on YouTube between the years of 2018-2022. Utilizing YouTube was the main way that I grew my audience and my online business. But I decided to get into podcasting because I wanted to reach my audience in a different way, and it's been a wonderful decision that I have made.

So, if you're thinking about starting a podcast for your ideal audience so that you can reach out to them in a more personal way, this episode was created just for you!

You're going to learn the five questions that you should ask yourself to make sure that having a podcast is the right venture for you and your business.

Ready to dive into the episode?

Let's do it!

In this episode you'll hear:

• What is the purpose and the message of your podcast show? If you can't come up with this before you start recording episodes, you may want to check this out.
• Do I have the time and commitment? Being able to record and edit your content for your podcast show can take time. Are you willing to do what it takes to make this happen? If you're not able to set aside time (minimum of 6-8 hours a month) to record and edit your content, then having a podcast may not be the right avenue for you.
• Am I passionate about the topic? Being truthfully honest, I have switched the content that I had on my podcast because I wasn't too passionate about the content I was initially putting out. But this is why you want to make sure that the content you put out is something that you absolutely LOVE creating. This will make the process easier for you, and your audience will love it too.
• What's the main statement for my show? Having a main statement is going to help you stand out from others in your niche, and it will also let people know what your podcast is all about. When they see and/or hear your podcast statement, will they know that your podcast show is for them?
• What is my unique angle or value proposition? This is important for you to have, even outside of creating a podcast. What is your unique take on how you do things differently than other people? How were you able to achieve results in a way that others weren't able to do? How does this make you stand out? Your unique angle/value proposition is going to take you far, as long as you let people know your angle and why you are for it or against it.

Welcome to Episode 37 of the Scaling to Business Success Podcast!

If there's one thing that I have learned over the last few years, is that is definitely OKAY to love money!

There's this thing in the coaching industry where people are telling other brand new coaches that it's not okay to love money, but instead it's important if you focus that energy into working with your clients.

I agree to a certain extent. I believe that you can do both.

I don't want you to love money from a greed standpoint because that's what we don't want. I want you to understand that it's okay to love money from a standpoint of "money will help me do great things, money will expand my business, money will help me to become a better coach to my ideal clients."

Money is good, and I want you to feel good about money coming to you. You need money to survive and to build a successful business. I think it's time for you to change your relationship with money, and it can start with this podcast episode.

Ready to dive into the episode?

Let's do it!

In this episode you'll hear:

• How money is energy. Once you realize this, it becomes easier for you to understand how your mindset and mood can either repel or bring money to you.
• The answer to the #1 question: why is it okay to love people, things, and experiences but why is it not okay to love money?
• How money can buy you the freedom and time to do more of what you love! Money can literally change your life in more ways than one.
• Money can amplify and multiply your positive impact on the world.

I hope that you enjoy the episode!
