One part of sales is connecting with clients and locking them into a sale. After all, we have to first find those interested parties and then convert them into paying clients to help improve our profits. However, one of most neglected parts of sales is market research. Good market research can completely change the game — allowing you to effectively pitch yourself to the people who need your services in a way that will make them listen to you. So... how do you start? I'm glad you asked! In this episode, I'm presenting you the 5 steps I would take today if I wanted to start collecting market research for my business. 00:42 — Why Market Research is Vital 03:02 — Turning the Ocean into a Pond 06:24 — Step #1 09:52 — Step #2 13:12 — Step #3 15:57 — Step #4 17:54 — Step #5 Resources: Team AP Consulting Services Team AP Resource Shop Join the Free 8 Week Sales Challenge! _____ Into it?

If you've been needing a mindset reset, this is the episode for you. Being an entrepreneur isn't just about the logistical aspects of owning a business — it's also about taking care of ourselves as CEOs. At the end of the day, our businesses directly reflect how we feel about ourselves. We need to take care of our mental health and be mindful of how we approach our clients, our team, and ourselves. In the age of perfectionism, hustle culture, and rejection, it can be easy to let our mindset fall to the wayside. Don't let it. 00:58 — Mindset 02:11 — Perfection + Rejection 05:25 — Do Not Live at Your Valleys or Peaks 07:15 — You Are What You Repeatedly Do 10:51 — Figuring Out The New Resources: Team AP Consulting Services New Resource Shop! _____ Into it?
