It’s been a whirlwind for the past few weeks but we couldn’t neglect giving a big thank you to the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center and Washington Area Community Investment Fund, Inc. (Wacif) for an inspiring collaboration!
Looking forward to growing this partnership and continuing to support the entrepreneurs making a difference.

The Boss Blueprint is Now Beyond the Logo
After five successful years of operating as a leading brand marketing agency, The Boss Blueprint has officially rebranded as Beyond the Logo.
Beyond the Logo is a brand marketing agency based in Washington, DC, specializing in helping nonprofit and social impact executives develop brands that overcome barriers of distrust in historically disadvantaged communities. Our core belief is that when trust is broken, change is impacted.
Our mission is to help passionate executives in the nonprofit and social impact sector to humanize their brands and maximize their social impact by fostering transformative relationships.
Through digital marketing, event management, community engagement, and professional development, we ensure that brands connect on an emotional level with the people they serve.
So if you wanna go beyond connect with us by signing up for our newsletter launching in January!
Another workshop in the books with WACIF!
Earlier this month we talked about how to supercharge your content process using AI.
The discussions were fire and we helped business owners go from spending 4 hours a week on content to 4 hours per month!

If you want to grow your revenue without burning out, you have to be more discerning about the projects on your docket.
Before you have clients, you have all the time in the world to work on your business.
The more clients you get, the more you risk developing an unhealthy business.
That’s because everything seems okay when the cash flow is moving in the right direction.
But if you want the profit and peace, it’s going to take some intentionality.
Be more intentional about what you want!
Be more intentional about how you want to reach your audience!
Be more intentional about where your time goes!
If you can’t tell me how many hours you spend on lead generation every week...and whether or not your current strategies are working...that’s a sign.

Posting on social media is not going to win you a $50,000 contract.
To get in the big leagues you’re going to have to play like the big boys play. (or big girls…but you know what I mean)
Almost every single client on my roster right now is a PERFECT client.
I didn’t get those clients by posting on social media. I got those clients by strategically developing a plan to understand their needs, offer my services, and build relationships with the decision-makers.
Are you on my email list?
Yesterday, I sent out the step-by-step strategy I used to figure out who my clients are and price appropriately so that every contract feels like a blessing and not a burden.
If you’re not on my email list make sure you get on there ASAP to get all the details so that you too can begin closing larger contracts, working with fewer clients, and scaling your business.

I created this post in 2023 with the hope of truly stirring the table and prompting you to recognize the imminent shift in our economic standards and market dynamics for business owners.
One excellent strategy for navigating this shift is to leverage Maslow’s Theory of Deficiency and Growth Needs.
As a business, your aim should be to position yourself as close to deficiency needs as possible. If you find yourself serving people on a growth needs level, identify ways to upsell, allowing you to work with fewer clients at a higher price point.
I’ve broken this down with examples because understanding your current market position is crucial.
Which level of the pyramid are you currently on?

The end of the video 🙈 😂
I'm super excited to say I've reached every single goal I've set this year and though I have moments where I need to readjust, at this point, I should be done with my business development for 2024 by the summertime.
You desire the flexibility to set your schedule, pursue your passions, and enjoy a sense of freedom in your work.
You want to integrate your work and personal life in a way that allows you to spend time with loved ones while still achieving business success.
However, it seems impossible to have it all and every day you're wondering if your business growth has finally plateaued.
So - you work and work and work and work. While you fear burnout, you also fear being broke - I get it.
There is a better way: I'm talking about better-quality clients, lower stress, and a good life without sacrificing your financial well-being.
Come take some time for yourself this June in Washington, DC.
I'm showing you how to:
💡 Find your DREAM clientele
💡 Price your services for GROWTH
💡 Create a structure for your personal life
💡 Go from SOLO to CEO
So, for those of you looking to SCALE your business, get the help you deserve, and secure your financial future, today is the day you’ll discover how to do just that! 🌟

Someone needs to read this reminder.
Your clients need to talk to you.
You need to determine what that looks like for your business and how you can be present for them.
Are you creating social media content?
Attending events?
Leveraging SEO?
Partnering?
Are you paying for ads?
Going door to door?
Responding to RFPs?
It doesn’t matter how you’re talking to your potential client, the goal is to numerically understand the actions you need to take to close a sale.
It doesn’t matter if that’s 10 events or 100 posts, your strategy needs to be as many steps as it takes to close the client.
No more, no less.
I had to follow up 5 times to close a $50,000 contract.
Your pride and fear won’t pay your bills 🥲
Are you finally going to do your business development work this year and stop playing?

Why do we talk about PRICING so much?
It impacts EVERYTHING. Pricing right helps you to attract the right clients and scale your business.
Speaking of pricing: I just priced a retainer service in less than 10 minutes using Google Sheets and ChatGPT.
I don’t know if you know this or not but ChatGPT is the best for business development!!
Just wanted to share if you’re wondering where you should invest your time or what you should learn this year.
I use it for all of my proposals, custom projects, and retainers.
ChatGPT is worth the time and effort!
Thank me later!

I win because I'm willing to take so many losses.
I wanted to share this number because lately, we have experienced A LOT of success, but the truth is that we've lost way more than we've won.
Running a business is about dedication and it is a numbers game.
Most people won't do business with you...
Every single no hurts, but over time it hurts a little less.
Just a reminder that it is a journey to success and the ups and downs are plentiful.
