The 3 Biggest Mistakes I see Business Owners make:

I see the same three mistakes over and over again. These aren't small issues - they are the difference between a struggling business and one that thrives.

Mistake #1: Trying to do everything yourself

I get it. You started this business, it's your baby, and you want to control every detail. But here's the truth - you can't scale a business that depends entirely on you. The most successful clients I work with have learned to delegate and systematise.

Mistake #2: Not knowing your numbers

"I think we're doing well" isn't a business strategy. If you don't know your profit margins, customer acquisition costs, or lifetime value, you are flying blind. My 2026 Business Mastery Framework will include templates to track every number that matters.

Mistake #3: Inconsistent marketing

You post on social media when you remember. You send emails when you need clients. This feast-or-famine approach keeps you stressed and your income unpredictable. Consistency beats perfection every time.

The good news? These are all fixable. In fact, I'm building my entire 2026 program around helping business owners avoid these exact mistakes.

What's the biggest thing in your business that you feel you need help with right now?
