why your business only works when you do
|
I had a chat a few weeks ago with a newer client whose business sells digital products and courses who said something I hear constantly, especially this year… “I can sell… but only when I’m like fully in it. When I’m fully on.” Fully focused. Fully energized and healthy. Fully clear on and connected to the offer. When there’s a full plan, and the visibility has been on lock, and you’re feeling yourself because damn, you did actually do all the things you said you were going to do. When she said it, it wasn’t even like a complaint. Almost like it was a neutral fact about how she works, like it’s just the way it is… the same way you’d say you’re a morning person or you know you should drink more water but somehow can’t manage to do it. But the second she said it, I could feel the weight underneath. Because when selling depends on your best weeks, your business stops being a business and starts becoming an all or nothing performance cycle. You know the rhythm, right? God knows it’s what I spent the first 5ish years of my business living. You’re in a launch, or you’re posting daily for evergreen sales and the ideas are flowing, the links are being clicked, the audience is growing. You’re in a great mood, feeling clear and resourced and certain it’s working. Sales come in. Voice notes in your DMs. A little rush of validation that reminds you you’re damn good at what you do. And then you stop. Maybe to take a breath. Maybe to plan what’s next. Maybe life hands you something unexpected. Maybe capacity dips. Maybe you just don’t feel like being seen or being online for a minute. And sales slow… then disappear. Not cause you suddenly got worse at what you do, but because your sales system only functions when you do. This isn’t burnout, and it can’t be fixed with a vacation or a social media break or a change in offering DWY instead of DFY. This is instability as a business model. A system where revenue relies on mood, capacity, energy spikes, or visibility sprints is a system balanced on a single point of failure. Which is wild, considering none of us left traditional jobs just to rebuild a role where everything depends on us having a good week. Right? Selling your offer shouldn’t require you to perform. It does require a lot of things… clarity. Resonant messaging. Translation of your genius. The kind that makes your offer legible to strangers, not just warm people who already know your brilliance. Those folks will often buy anyway, because they already trust you and know you’ll deliver, even if they don’t totally get what you’re selling. That’s what the Say Less Messaging Sprint gives you. Seven days where we build the messaging architecture that doesn’t shut down every time you rest…
You walk away with the words to say and the action to take that drive sales ongoing, not just when you’re posting. This kind of messaging work is the backbone behind sales pages that actually take work off your plate because they’re selling for you, 24/7. And once you feel what that kind of consistency does for your revenue, it’s hard to go back to the “only when I’m on” way of running your business. x CQ WEBSITE | CHELSEA'S INSTAGRAM | BOOK A SALES SPRINT | WORK WITH ME 1:1 |

So, there is a very particular kind of founder I see a lot in my world... largely because I tend to connect with folks who are EPIC at what they do, but still not hitting the level of consistent, dependable, and frankly life-changing money they want to be making from their business. That was me for the first 3 years of my business... And it's the thing where you're not confused about whether you can sell. When you are in a room with someone, or talking to them in the DMs, or on a sales call,...
Okay, I did it. I leaned back from my computer after hitting send on the email. The one I wish I was organized enough to have written last week, then scheduled so I wouldn’t even remember when it was sending, and I’d be surprised and delighted when the Stripe notifications started rolling in. But I didn’t write the email last week, so here I am, sitting in front of my laptop, deeply aware that I just sent an email that is supposed to drive sales. I pick up my phone. No notifications. Hmm…...
Back in 2020, I created, launched, and delivered 27 new offers. That’s in addition to existing offers I had and my ongoing 1:1 clients. At the end of the year I was feeling a little deflated, a little lost, a little disoriented. My OBM pulled up the financial tracking spreadsheet she keeps for me and shared her screen. “Well, you did make… hold on let me count here…” My jaw clenched, face stretching into the cringe emoji. 😬 “Yeah, you made 27 new things this year.” I immediately launched into...
