Personal Credit vs Business Credit

  • Personal is based on social security number
    • Business is based on EIN
    • Don’t keep switching business phone number and address. Need to be able to build business credit with this
    • To build business credit a goal of 12 - 16 lines of credit is ideal

    • Email marketing
    • Ads
    • Retargeting ads

    Building Your Team

  • Building a team is an expense, but the ultimate investment with a return
    • Doing things alone as a solopreneur cost you time and possibly mistakes…. and mistakes are costly
    • Recommend having Legal on your team (try Legal Zoom or private business owner)
    • Recommend having an accountant on your team (try 1-800-accountants or private accounting firm)



    How Not to Get Scammed

  • Do your due diligence by fully researching
      • Watch and pay attention to detail
      • Get reference/success stories and reach out to them
  • Have a detailed contract in black and white, not verbal
    • When all else fails, do a chargeback with your bank when it’s a legitimate scam



    Random Gems

  • It’s better to learn/make any mistakes when you start vs when your business is big. It costs a lot less!
    • Make any business investments like coaching, supplies, etc NOW! You can write it off on your taxes.
    • You don’t have to reinvent yourself. Use the skillset you already have to build your business and be profitable
    • Wake up with the mindset that you’re going to kill it everyday
    • Remember, everything can be figured out
    • Find a mentor and invest in yourself and business. It’ll be faster than trying to figure it out alone
    • Be intentional about who you follow on Clubhouse if you want the right and most beneficial information
    • Use search keywords in Clubhouse to connect with important people within your industry
    • Let your family and friends doubt you. They’ll be amazed and asking how you did it later.
