I sat on the floor of my office, well after midnight, on the verge of tears.

Tears of frustration, confusion and downright anger.

It was 2012 and I was about 6 months into my business. My dreams of a 4-hour workweek had long ago been shattered…

… and I was a TOTAL mess.

You see, I was so worried about not making enough money that I said yes to any type of client who asked me to do work.

And as a result, I had…

• Career coaching clients
• Corporate marketing consulting clients
• Subcontracting contracts as a marketing consultant
• Small business marketing consulting clients
• Program management clients
  And more…

I was working 80+ hours and felt like I was going NOWHERE… spending all my time bouncing from thing, to thing, to thing with no rhyme or reason (and feeling a serious dose of mom-guilt in the process).

And from this crazy-pants mindset, I took some (bad) guru advice and decided to add yet another thing to my overflowing plate.

I jumped into building my email list.

Because ALL the guru webinars I attended said the same thing…

(you've heard this one, right?)

‘The money is in your list'

Here's the truth…

…the money is NOT in an email list that has no focus, no central theme, no strategy and no system to turn those new subscribers into clients.

But I spent a lot of time, money and effort to figure it out the hard way.

You know where the money is? It's in having a LASER FOCUS for your business.
