You may have heard the phrase “Less is More”. It’s something I’ve heard many times across the years in the online entrepreneurial space. But it’s not easy. And you can’t ever start with less.
To simplify is a skill set that is honed with time.
No creator starts with the winning idea out of the gates. They generate many ideas and test, tweak and test again.
It’s the same with your service offers, you need to move into action and see what sticks with your people. Start small and test ideas with workshops rather than full blown programmes.
With time and testing we can simplify. Once more focused, it’s then easier to shine, to draw more people into your world as they understand exactly what you are about and why they want to work with you.
It’s taken me 20 years to get to the essence of how I support my clients to simplify and shine.

Teaching gives people information. Transformation changes
