LEAVING YOUR MARK in the BUSINESS WORLD ft. Cheryl Bishop




You heard me say it before: It's the small stuff that makes a huge difference- either in our personal or in our business life!

Let's focus on business here, shall we?
If and when we start our passion project we need to make sure it's somehow and somewhat different from the rest of the crowd. If we don't stand out with even just a little something we are invisible.
We need to decide to become a small fish in a big pond or to become a big fish in a small pond.

Let me walk you through the anatomy of a business called Make Your Mark!

                                              

They specialise in business training education for the small business owner who doesn't have formal business education (actually, who does?).

Five years ago their founder and CEO Colin Sprake decided to make MYM the best, most influential and widely recognised support system for the independent small business owner!
The only problem was, nobody knew who he or MYM was!
Collin had his dream, a plan, a goal and a laser sharp vision of what he wanted to achieve by what date!

He then made a very smart move: He recruited his friend Cheryl Bishop.

Why? This is why:
"If you want to get stuff done, ask a woman to do it!"(I am pretty sure the late Margaret Thatcher said this and Colin Sprake read it).

Together they networked their pretty butts off to find their perfect clients. They did up to 16 networking events per week to spread themselves and their message around!
Here comes the secret: They followed up! Follow up in huge in the world of MYM!

Plus, they believed in themselves!
Belief is everything!
If you are not 150% convinced your product or service is the best 
thing since the invention of sliced bread, you are dead!
You need to believe you are wanted, needed and appreciated - or at least your product or service is!

To make a long story short, within 5 years they created a company worth millions and today Colin is a big fish in a small pond (MYM services reaches 11000 business owners within a 50 km radius of the office location)

Join me for a candid 16 minute interview with Cheryl Bishop! 

Find out
WHY Cheryl agreed to a lower pay and longer crazier hours 
(Hint: Believe and share the same vision!).
What a NO really means 
(hint: Whatever you do, don't take it personally)
Why a presentation in front of 2 is a perfect opportunity!
 (You never know, it can lead to something huge!)
How long it took to create a buzz! (Yes it took years- but it was worth it)



And what makes them extraordinary? 
The folks at MYM are givers: They offer free training, free weekend seminars, a fun atmosphere and operate this whole operation with heart and soul!

I truly believe, if they can do it, so can you! 
With the right mindset, a plan and the perfect wing man / woman everything is possible!
