Are You Using Your Business Expenses Against Yourself | Grow Your Local Business podcast
 

Have you ever looked at how much money your business is bringing in… and immediately discounted it because of how much you’ve spent? Somehow the website, software, marketing, coaching, equipment and support become evidence that you’re not actually doing as well as you thought.

But what if you’re looking at those expenses all wrong? In this episode, we’re talking about the difference between money you’ve spent and what that money has helped you BUILD... and why recognizing what you’ve already learned how to create might be one of the most important things you can do as you grow your business.

Tune into this episode to learn:

  • The subtle ways business expenses can make you feel unsuccessful even when your business is actually growing
  • Why focusing on what you’ve spent can keep you stuck in a cycle that makes it harder to create MORE
  • A different way to evaluate your business expenses and what they’re actually helping you build
