Click Link Below to 5X Your Farm Sales: https://courses.3cowmarketing.com/5x-farm-sales There are two most common problem farmers start coaching with me to solve. You're not making enough money. You're struggling with overwhelm - not having enough time or money or resources so things aren't getting done. Some tell me they're hemorrhaging money! Yet you can't afford to hire help to lessen the overwhelm. And part of the problem is, you just aren't charging enough to make it all worth it. Our family farms usually don't have the economy of scale that the industrial farms have, so we have to charge more than the grocery store, for instance, to make a profit. Yet most don't. And when I ask why not - you have a multitude of reasons, probably all the ones you'll hear on the podcast today! Before you can successfully raise your prices, you've got to know why you're not raising your prices - otherwise, your biggest fear will come true - that you'll lose customers. I go over all of this, in detail, in this week's podcast episode. The 4 Steps I teach in today's episode will help you gain the confidence to raise your prices and NOT lose customers. I teach you how. Listen to this week's episode to learn.

There's nothing like it in the industry - she's sitting on a gold mine of knowledge and help for flower farmers! Yet, she's not selling it. She's not putting it out there. I asked her why in Episode 86. She said, "I doubt if it's good enough. I worry people won't buy it. I'm afraid flower industry experts might question it." You might think those are normal thoughts everyone has. And they often are. Yet when she allows herself to think them, she spins on trying to improve the product. Trying to make it good enough. Trying to do anything to prevent the possibility of an expert criticizing it. Which means, it's still 'sitting on the shelf' not getting out there. And every day it sits on the shelf she's not making money and neither are the new flower farmers that need this info. She's stuck. NOT because the product isn't good enough. But because of her thought. These same thoughts are causing many of us to NOT put our products out there. And for sure, to NOT price them sustainably! This problem is so common because we often think that fine-tuning the product is the problem. But the product is never the problem. It's only her thinking that's the problem. The solution? It's clearly laid out in today's episode. Click HERE to listen. And remember. This is what we do in 5X Your Farm Sales. I coach you to get to the REAL problem and to fix it once and for all. Then you finally stop doubting, stop the worry, stop the incessant perfecting - and get it out there and start building your profitable farm. Your thoughts are what will keep your farm from success. Your thoughts are what makes your farm successful. It's NOT having the best product. Or having it priced just right. Or the best farming practices. You need to learn this skill of intentionally creating the results you want in life. Tune into Episode 86 to start now.

Get on the waitlist for 5X Your Farm Sales: https://courses.3cowmarketing.com/5x-farm-sales The first step in me teaching you how to make money on your farm is showing you that your reasons YOU THINK you're not profitable... aren't the real reasons. Your website, the location you live, your products not being "right", not being able to raise your prices - are NOT WHY your farm isn't making money. The ONLY thing in the way of you making a profit on your farm - is YOU. Lemme explain. Truth is, your farm will only be as successful as your thoughts about yourself. Wild concept, right?? But we now have the research showing us why/how some people get to great success and many don't. In order to build a successful, profitable farm, you first have to have a strong belief in you. Yourself. This is not a skill we're born with, you've gotta learn it. And, lucky you, this is the work I do. Today's culture has taught us we have to prove our worth and ability in order to deserve to charge the price we need. We think we're being "humble" when we're self-deprecating. We're taught we don't want people to think WE think too highly of ourselves!! But - as cute as it is in a group of people, it's keeping you at a low level of success. If your self concept is not strong, your business won't be either. This self-belief is where I start with all my clients who want more success in their business. If I just teach them my advanced marketing strategies without increasing their self-belief first, the strategies don't work. You already suspect this. You know you're posting and emailing and doing videos - and taking all the actions you see others doing - and your actions are NOT resulting in a farm business with an ample profit margin. Again, your ample profit margin will only be the result AFTER you get your belief in yourself set. Once my clients up-level their belief in themselves (I teach you how) - more profit CAN be instantaneous. From their new place of believing in themselves (a learned skill) their flyers and emails and social media posts - create massive financial gains. Remember - it's NOT your products, your farming practices, your website, your location OR YOUR SPOUSE holding you back from being profitable. It's one thing and one thing only. Fix this, you're golden. I see this evidence daily with my clients. In this episode, I teach you 3 Strategies to Overcome Your Biggest Obstacle to Building a Profitable Farm. It takes a certain level of vulnerability and bravery to finally make the decision to do the work on yourself. Most people won't. Will you? Be sure to listen to this week's episode. Warmly, Charlotte PS: Plan on working with me in "5X Your Farm Sales" starting in September. We start with strengthening your belief in YOU.

Get on the waitlist to 5X Your Farm Sales: https://courses.3cowmarketing.com/5x-farm-sales Farmers often reach out to me for help, disappointed their website is not making them more sales. Doesn't matter what platform they have - they ALL can work. The platform is NOT the problem. There is no "perfect website platform" that when you find it then you'll FINALLY make money.

Make these changes to your site and then bring it to my Advanced Marketing Strategies program for a review to continue improving and up-leveling. Let's finally get your website doing what it's supposed to do - making you consistent sales on your farm. Listen now to learn and implement the 3 simple tweaks. That's just the start of your profitable farm.

You excitedly share your dreams and visions with your partner and family. Everyone's cheering you on! Until at some point, they question you. Or they doubt your vision. Or they wonder "will it really work?" and "when's this going to pay off?" Cue your immediate feelings of deflated, disappointed, defeated and totally unsupported! Suddenly, their response to your BIG exciting vision starts to make you feel like… 😥Your dream is fading away 😥You're all alone in the business 😥You feel deflated That's exactly what happened to one of my clients when she didn't feel like her husband was supporting her. As a matter of fact, she told me it felt like a 'bait and switch' because he was so encouraging at the beginning! She's not alone - it's a topic clients are bringing to coaching calls regularly: feeling unsupported and deflated by their partners and family. But let me tell you something about your farm dream… You'll learn in today's podcast episode that you don't have to let a person's comments or behaviors deflate you or make you feel unsupported. When you learn to shift your thoughts to some that are WAY more useful and productive, no one will ever "deflate" you again. You're 100% in control of feeling supported - today's episode explains how. That's why I want to help you learn, 3 Steps to Feeling More Supported By Those Around You. When you make the emotional shift in yourself to feel differently about what's happening around you, you're telling those dream snatchers to… Scoot on over! You're in the driver's seat.

So many of my clients come to me at first, frustrated they've been doing all the things and still aren't making money. The first thing I do is ask a series of questions that identifies exactly what's in the way of them making money. When you pressure your farm, yourself, to… Make money Breakeven Reach 6 figures in one year ...you're actually hindering your farm's growth and profitability. Because here's the thing, It's not your business' job to serve you by becoming profitable or even breakeven. It's YOUR job to serve your business by growing the skills needed to make it profitable. There's so many ways you can do that. And I want to chat with you more about it in my new podcast episode, the one mistake that prevents your farm from paying for itself. But I can tell you right now, it's not worrying about how much money you're making. Or frantically and prematurely coming up with strategies to do so. How about, instead, you focus on investing in the UDDER-ly (😉) amazing CEO that you are. Cause you are! And when you take ownership of that, you are going to see results. No doubt. Tune in today to learn how to finally get your farm to profit.

Book a free strategy session to see if coaching is right for you: https://calendly.com/csmith3cow/strategy-session?month=2021-07 Every week I coach more than one farmer on feeling afraid to put themselves "out there." It sounds like this: I'm afraid I'll let people down But people will be disappointed I don't like how I look/sound on camera I'm afraid people will criticize my… (fill in the blank - prices, farming practices, that I took a vacation, think I look frumpy, and on and on) Does that sound like you? Listen, I know putting yourself out there is scary! But - you have to get over it if you want to be around for the long run. Sounds so easy. And I know it's not - because to get over it, you actually have to go through it and do it and feel the fear anyway! And THAT sounds so scary! This fear of what others may think of you sounds like a valid fear, but what if it isn't? The truth is, EVERYONE is going to have an opinion. Sometimes even more than one. And - what if I told you, their opinion is none of your business? 'Cuz it isn't your business. It isn't even about you. It's about them, where they're at that day, what season of life they're in, what they had for breakfast. What they think of you or your marketing is out of your control. And when you put the focus on what their opinions might be, you're actually making it about you… instead of serving them. Friend, don't get down on yourself for this - we ALL do it. It's a problem for my clients because worrying about what people will think about their marketing or prices or farming or family is holding them back from making money. This fear is keeping them stuck and small. When you fear what others might think of you, then when you DO post or email, you're not even showing up as you! You're presenting your customers and followers with a version of you that isn't even the real you. Because that self is based on what you think they might want to see or hear. So the "you" they like is not even the real you! See how we twist ourselves into knots trying to pretend we're something we're not so people will like us? So, how can we change this pattern of fear of what people think? The solution is to shift your thinking. Simple as that? Yes. Easy? Maybe not, but that's why I'm here. I'll help you navigate that. Tune into this week's episode, I'll help you start the process. Charlotte

What would you do with your time? Take a vacation? Spend time with your kids? Find a hobby?! (Or invest more time into a hobby?) Visit with your neighbor? Okay! Daydream over... You own a farm. How in God's green earth could you possibly work any less? Maybe you're on the other end of the spectrum where, actually, even thinking about taking time off or working fewer hours sounds absolutely ludicrous and sends you into a whirlwind of anxiety! Either way, I'm here to tell you to - GET OFF THE HAMSTER WHEEL! The reality is, farmers are OVERWHELMED. Working too hard. Scatterbrained and can't seem to focus. Consumed with tasks that seem important but actually are holding them back. You know what I mean? Answering emails Working in the barns & fields & beds Spending WAY too much time on Facebook because they aren't sure what to do next… I've seen far too much of this. And what you need is - an intervention. It may sound extreme, but to combat the busy syndrome you have to tap into the brain and re-teach it how to rest. Charlotte from the past would tell you it's impossible! But I've put in the work and can confidently say that it is SO worth it and 100% possible. You deserve to wake up in the morning and realize that you're fulfilled and calm. Even though you still have a busy farm & family. You also deserve to know you've broken it off with the rat race and have ZERO guilt. In this episode of the podcast, I teach you, How To Slow Down On the Farm and Get Things Done. Because you don't have to sacrifice time for success. Once you understand that, you'll be able to kick those boots off, sit back, and appreciate your hard work. Listen to Episode 80 HERE. Love & Rest, Charlotte
