A little wisdom from my father
|
Hi Reader, Today is my father’s birthday. He was a very practical man. Whenever I was overwhelmed, he’d look at me and say: “Don’t overthink it. Just focus on the next step.” Sound familiar? It always worked. And it still does. So today, I want to pass that same message to you: If you ever feel overwhelmed by all the steps to run an online business... Congratulations - you’re human! Most of the women I speak to know exactly what they want… If you’re questioning where to put your focus for 2026, try this: Reply to this email and tell me one sentence: “Here’s what I want.” I’ll point you to the very best next step towards your goal. Just like my dad’s advice: Do the next simple step. You’ll be surprised how much clarity comes from movement. Talk soon, Deborah P.S. If you want my help with your plan, now's the time to book a call. I’ll guide you toward the offer that fits your goals best. Here’s a quick breakdown of current offers on SALE until December 12th: Foundations OBS Group Program → If you want a full marketing system, one clear offer, and weekly coaching support starting in January, this program is designed to make that simple and fun. VIP Day (BOGO) → If you want fast, focused help with your funnel, messaging or strategy. Digital Product Toolkit → If you want a small, doable project and a quick win before the end of the year. |
