Hey, there, #CustomerLove-rs!
How is it going in this Time Between Challenges?
For me, it’s been a week of progress and much thinking. Meetings and postings. Overwhelm and underwhelm.
In short, it’s been a week. 😀
How about you?
The Challenge
LaVonneEllis -When you start to doubt yourself, think, “What do I need to hear right now?” And say that to your people. They need it too. #customerlove

The Qs from Tuesday’s Tweetchat, provided for your pondering.
Since LaVonne was Otherwise Occupied at the time, and no-one else had as yet pounced, I took the liberty of posing a couple of Qs. (Turned out Teh Twitters were broken at the time, but the Qs are valid all the same, despite the Immense Echoes you may hear in the background. :-D)
- Q1. Progress. Where are you in your biz? Where would you like to be?
- Q2. What is stopping you from getting to that Sweet Spot in your biz?
- Q3. Why are you letting it stop you? What can you do to remove yourself from the Place of Stuck PRONTISSIMO??
Saturday’s Skype Call (insert alliteration of choice here! :-D)
This week’s call included:
- Democracy!
- Maths & Biz confidence!
- Booting negative self-talk!
- Evil laughs & Empire building!
See what you miss when you miss Saturday’s Skype chat? 😀
Audio: Due to the changing nature of the call, from chat-based to more mastermind-based, the audio will now only be available to call participants.
Participation is still open to all who care to join, however.
