Ep 294: Just Getting Started? Don't Waste Your Time on These Things!

Work Less, Earn More

When you’re just getting started with your business, it can be so tempting to spend time on all the “fun” things like designing the perfect logo, building a fancy website, or posting every day on social media. But here’s the thing: those tasks don’t actually move the needle when it comes to making money.

In this episode, I’m sharing the common mistakes I see new entrepreneurs make that end up wasting precious time and slowing down their progress. I’ll explain which activities you can safely postpone, like forming an LLC, creating complicated sales funnels, or investing in expensive software, and why focusing on them too soon can actually hold you back.

Instead, I’ll show you what to prioritize right now: your product, your target audience, and your sales process. These are the core essentials that will help you start earning sooner and give you the momentum to grow.

If you’re in the early stages of building your business, this episode will help you cut through the noise, stop spinning your wheels, and zero in on what actually matters most.

Listen to the full episode to hear:

• The tasks that seem important but won’t help you make money yet
• What to focus on first to build momentum and generate sales
• Why delaying certain “official” steps can actually speed up your progress
• How to avoid the distractions that hold most new entrepreneurs back
