Yes, that picture is me as a 19-year-old Air Force Basic Trainee!  I was honored to serve my country – to protect our nation’s freedom.  It brought the added bonus of my individual freedom to see and experience the world.

Today, in my business, funnels equal freedom!  Freedom to choose when I take time off, when and where I work, my hours of operation.  It’s the ultimate reward for lots of hard work, worry, strategy, and perseverance.

Without the automated systems that I have set up in my business, I wouldn’t be able to travel in my RV to see bluegrass festivals throughout the spring, summer, and fall. 

Without the pre-built “welcome” series of emails and “nurture” campaigns, some new leads would surely fall through the cracks….and some clients might feel left out if I couldn’t stay in touch with them on a regular basis.

Remember the reason you started a business in the first place – most entrepreneurs will say it was for the freedom, autonomy, liberty, and ultimately so that they have discretion on how they spend their time.

If you’re hovering over the keyboard, a slave to your business…then you’re not living the dream that got you here.  Let’s make your dream come true, together!
