THOUGHTS FROM CLAIRE:

  • You create your own “luck” because you work hard.
  • I am not a big fan of “Fake it until you make it.”
  • Consider what you don’t like doing in your business and find a way to delegate it.
  • Do things the right way from the start.
  • Have the conversation about money upfront. That will give you a good indication on some things.
  • Make it a point to sit down to review the letter of agreement and expectations with your client.
  • Look back at previous experiences to identify red flags.
  • Explain your processes and how you work.
  • Be authentic. Provide value. Be consistent.
  • Consider using video to bring brand awareness to your company.
