As we’re getting closer to the end of the year and I’m starting to finalize my planning for 2025, I’ve been thinking a lot about where I was when I started my business in 2020 compared to where I am now.

It's normal to question yourself in business and if you’re sitting in a place where you’re wondering if you’re making some of the right decisions, I thought I’d share with you today 6 things that I would do differently if I was starting my business over from scratch.

I’ve learned a lot from these mistakes and I truly think that we learn more from what we do wrong than we do from what we get right. But I also hope that this list will help you to avoid some of the things that tripped me up, so you can get your business moving further faster.

Do you ever feel like you’re putting your heart and soul into launching something… only to be met with silence?

You’ve spent weeks, maybe even months, preparing, promoting, and posting, yet when the big day arrives... crickets. It’s frustrating, right?

Ever feel like you’re on the verge of hitting those big financial goals, but something keeps getting in the way? You’re not alone!

Four years ago this week, I launched my very first online course with no clue what I was doing. I left a successful 20-year career, jumped into entrepreneurship without a plan, and figured it out along the way. Now? I’ve replaced and doubled my salary—and I’ve never looked back.

In this episode of No BS Business School, I’m sharing the 4 surprising things that might be keeping you from hitting consistent $10k months. Spoiler alert: It’s not about posting at the perfect time on Instagram.

Building a business that consistently brings in $10k months isn’t about fancy social media tricks. It’s about strategy—and there are likely a few key things you’re overlooking that are blocking your progress.

In this episode, I break down the 4 surprising obstacles standing between you and consistent revenue, and how mastering them changed everything for me.

I’ll be teaching these strategies in my Online Marketing Kickstarter Bootcamp starting October 8th, but today I’m giving you a preview of what to expect!

Remember: passion and profit can live together in harmony. You deserve to hit those $10k months consistently and do so without burning yourself out or compromising your values. It’s time to shift your mindset and embrace systems that work for you—not the other way around.

Ready to take control of your revenue and hit those $10k months? Join me in the Online Marketing Kickstarter Bootcamp on October 8th, where I’ll help you build a business that works for you, without the BS.

Imagine this: You’re trying to sell your amazing service or course, but something feels off. You’re pushing, using all the tactics you’ve seen other successful online businesses use, but deep down, you’re uncomfortable. It feels manipulative, and you’re worried it might be turning off your audience. Sound familiar?

Well, you’re not alone. In today’s episode, we’re diving into the world of bro marketing—a set of tactics that might get you quick sales but could cost you trust and long-term relationships with your audience.

I break down what bro marketing actually is, the four common tactics you need to avoid, and how to replace them with ethical sales strategies that will help you build a sustainable, values-driven business. Trust me, you don’t have to resort to sleazy sales tactics to be successful—you can sell with integrity and still make bank!

In this episode, I walk you through:

• [03:45] – What bro marketing really is and why it’s so common in the online space.
• [08:15] – The sneaky tactic of false urgency and why it damages customer trust in the long run.
• [12:30] – How shame-provoking language manipulates people’s insecurities to force a sale (and why you should never use it).
• [17:05] – The false authority trap: why exaggerating your expertise or credentials is harmful to your business.
• [22:15] – Marking up payment plans: how this unfair tactic exploits customers needing flexibility—and what you can do instead.
• [28:40] – How you can shift from bro marketing to ethical sales today and start building trust with your audience.

By the end of this episode, you’ll understand the difference between bro marketing and ethical sales, and more importantly, how to make the shift in your own business so you can build long-term, sustainable success without compromising your values.
