Relying on a single revenue stream is risky because it leaves the business vulnerable to market changes, client pipeline fluctuations, or personal circumstances (e.g., illness). Diversification ensures stability and scalability, allowing the business to thrive even if one income source dries up.
The speaker diversified by creating hands-free courses (Summits Made Simple), increasing visibility through bundles and speaking engagements, offering fractional operations and CMO services, and taking an ownership stake in a company. These steps allowed her to expand her client base and create multiple income sources.
Increased visibility through travel and speaking engagements led to new client acquisitions. For example, trips to Orlando and Washington resulted in retainer clients and other business opportunities, helping her grow her network and revenue.
Offering fractional operations and CMO services allowed the speaker to work with high-revenue companies (5-35 employees making $5-35 million annually) in diverse industries like law and healthcare. This expanded her expertise, provided consistent income, and reignited her passion for business.
The speaker took an ownership stake in a company being built to be sold in the future. This exit strategy aims to provide a significant payout and diversify her revenue streams, ensuring financial stability beyond her primary business operations.
The speaker plans to add a new offer or opportunity every quarter. For example, in Q1 2025, she will launch a new course for Many Bundles, and in Q2, she aims to add another fractional client. This structured approach ensures steady growth without overwhelming her or her team.
The speaker emphasized that personal development is critical for scaling a business. She highlighted that her journey was not linear, involving challenges like burnout, personal loss, and anxiety. Overcoming these hurdles required upskilling, self-reflection, and strategic planning.
