Many women who own businesses say they&#8217;re dedicated to  creating success but they really have an expensive hobby.  They take mincing steps questioning spending ten bucks on flyers or twenty bucks for a new book.

		<description><![CDATA[Instead, the conversation was about using the unexpected changes in our lives as a catalyst for positive growth and change.  Turn lemons into lemonade.  Rising from who we are now and be, do, have something different. Totally different. People willing to get out of their comfort zone.  From an insurance agent who wants to be a life coach to a psychic who wants to write a book and travel the world.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, I've been banging this drum for a long time now.  I have many readers of my books, attendees at my workshops and marketing mentoring clients who've seen the light - however a lot of people still mistakenly believe that their ability to have a successful business lies in having a skill.  It doesn't.  Your ability to have a successful business lies in having a salable skill and the ability to sell it. ]]></description>

After all, admitting you have a problem is the first big step to solving the problem, right?  If you answer yes to any of the bullets below - chances are extremely good that you're a cupcake marketer.  Here are the telltale signs.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, you aren't a charity.  Other women business owners aren't charities either.  No matter how much you're struggling and would like someone to write you a check it's not likely to happen because you're not a victim.  Stop expecting others to treat you like one.  Start learning how to market and sell effectively.  Treat your business like a business and set the intention that others do the same.   ]]></description>

When asked to consider easy, testosterone-free ways to grow, they're not interested because they don't want growth.  They take mincing steps and question spending ten bucks on flyers - but spend hundreds on a new purse.  It's about priorities. ]]></description>

The purpose of a business is to make money.  That's the primary purpose.  If you're not making money you don't have a business - you have an expensive hobby.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Maybe this sounds like a big leap, but being successful in your business as a woman can actually make your marriage better and your husband more loving.  I’m defining success as the perfect blend of enjoying what you do AND creating cash flow.  Not one or the other – you get to have both.  Yes, I know there are men threatened by their wives’ success.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A lot of women, home-based business owners say they don't "get" marketing and how it works.  Marketing is a universe most of us are unfamiliar with. We want to get everything right, and, we're less likely to shoot from the hip. I can’t clear up all the differences in one article, but I can help you become more clear about talking about your business with others.]]></description>
