🌱 Plant(ing) Based Business

🤷‍♂️ KEEPING IT REAL 

As entrepreneurs, we often feel the pressure to make money immediately during these cold winter months. But here's the truth: only about 2% of people who engage with your social media, newsletters, or other communications are in buying mode right now. The other 98%? They're observing, learning, and deciding whether they know, like, and trust you.

Let me relieve you of the pressure you're placing on yourself. January, February, and March are the perfect months to plant seeds and nurture your audience. Instead of stressing over hitting all your sales goals right now, focus on creating value, building connections, and earning trust. This sets the stage for a thriving season ahead. Before you know it, you’ll be reaping the rewards. Trust me.

👇 Here are 3 key ways to make the most of this season:

1. Share Your Story: Let your audience see the real you and what drives your business. Authenticity builds trust.

2. Give Generously: Share helpful tips, resources, or inspiration. Showing up now means they’ll show up for you later.

3. Engage Consistently: Respond to comments, start conversations, and stay present. Engagement turns followers into loyal customers.

Remember: Growth takes time. Seeds don’t sprout overnight, but the effort you put in now will ensure a flourishing spring. Focus on cultivating relationships, and the sales will follow.

Here’s to a productive planting season, one seed at a time! 🌱
