**NOTE: This is part 3 concluding a 3 piece series on how to build the perfect business for more profits and more freedom. If you missed the previous installments please check your inbox and you should find them there. If your business isn’t where you think it should be... If your sales and profits aren’t growing the way you know they could be... Just using a few proven strategies can give you the boost you need to get there. There’s nothing magical about how the best entrepreneurs become successful. They don’t do anything all that special. They just do the basics really, REALLY well. And the 4 principles I’m about to share will give you everything you need to have the foundation of a true high performer. The other day I mentioned Commandments 4-6… Let’s pick up there... With 7 through 10 of the... 10 Commandments for a Perfect Business: 7. Have a meaningful incentive This might be providing your kids with certain opportunities and upbringing… It could be taking care of your parents as they age… Or something completely different. Whatever it is you must have a big meaningful incentive to help you manage the entrepreneurial roller coaster. When you fall from the highest of highs, down to the lowest of lows… Having a clear picture in your head of WHY you’re doing it will fuel you to keep going and reach your 7-figure goals. When I helped my client Joe Polish find his meaningful incentive… ...he was able to cut out distractions, grow his income, and now he’s even able to take a 1-year sabbatical in 2021 while his business runs without him. Find YOUR meaningful incentive and I guarantee it will keep you on track and out of trouble. 8. Structure equals freedom Having more structure in your life gives you more perfect days in your business… And creates massive leaps in growing your empire. Unfortunately most entrepreneurs get stuck in “reaction mode.” Putting out fires all day and accomplishing… not much. I KNOW that feeling because I used to live it too until I built my perfect days. If that’s you don’t worry because you’re in the right place… All you need is a tool from my bestselling book The Perfect Day Formula. When we gave my friend — the famous Founder of ClickFunnels, Russell Brunson — this tool… ... it allowed him to get more structure in his life and more time in his day so he could grow his company to 9-figures. Here’s how we got him 5X more productive with his time and how you can be too... First, create boundaries and identify things to stop doing (anything that’s been holding you back). Then, focus on the number one thing that will move you ahead… And build the structure to support it. For a step-by-step on exactly how to do this… You can download my book The Perfect Day Formula for FREE right here (no catch). 9. Have systems for automatic success The reason iPhones can do so many amazing things is because they have powerful operating systems. But most business owners don't have the right operating systems to be successful... Which means they end up wasting time, money, and energy. My client Isabel Price managed to build a million dollar business but lacked systems and was under tremendous stress. When we helped her put the right systems in place she went from working late every night, not getting enough time with her two little boys… To now finishing work early every day and spending lots of time with her family… ALL while growing her multi 7-figure empire. Here’s a couple of things to help you with this right away… First, get rid of the bad systems — everything that you know is NOT working right now. Even more important than having a to do list is a “Not to do” list. Second, start your day with systems that set off a domino chain of success... by planning and preparing ahead of time. I detail an easy process for this in The Perfect Day Formula. 10. Set big deadlines When you’re running a race or trying to get something done before you leave work to go on vacation… What happens? You push hard to the finish line and get it done. That’s the power of having a big deadline. With Netflix, Facebook, Instagram, podcasts, and more coming at us every day… Even the most disciplined entrepreneurs in the world use big deadlines to avoid distractions and stay on track. Here’s a couple of ideas to help you do this… First, identify a daily deadline... What can you get done each day in a certain time to help you dominate? Second, what can you do to identify a longer term deadline that will lead to exponential growth in your business? When you implement both these deadlines... you’ll be amazed at how fast your progress becomes. --- That completes our mini series and you now have all 10 Commandments for a Perfect Business! (If you missed part 1 or 2 just check your inbox). Please do not underestimate a single one of these principles… They are so powerful even 1 or 2 of them can skyrocket your business growth. And if you implement just half of these I guarantee you’ll be on the fast track to BIG profits, more time, and less stress. To Your Success, Craig PS - Do you need help growing your business?
