When building your business online, you're going
to encounter strangers who pop up and throw negative stuff at you.
Those kinds of people are easy to spot, but there are different (and potentially more damaging) folks who can hold you back from giving 100% with your business ...
They're the ones who come at you as a friend and try to hold you back "out of concern" for you.
They're like the proverbial crabs in a bucket who hate to see other
crabs escape, so they do everything they can to pull them back down and away from freedom.
They send "friendly" messages like this:
"Hey, how's it going? I wanted to message you about your last post ... I didn't have a problem with it at all, but I think it could really hurt your business and I'd be careful. I'd hate to see you lose clients from it!"
I get them from time to time, and
they're tricky because they're not from anonymous trolls on the Internet but from people I know (and in some cases, respect enough to have had them on my podcast).
Why do they do it?
Maybe they do believe they're doing you a favour, but I suspect that seeing you going after your goals and putting your message out there consistently and unapologetically every day is triggering them.
My
suggestion is to ignore those messages and keep doing your thing.
Or you could answer with a quick "Thanks" if that makes you feel any better - but I wouldn't get into a long conversation or change your approach because of it.
If you'd like to have me in your corner to push through any hesitation that you have, I now have some spots available for new laser coaching clients.
A few bonuses come with it:
If you sign up for laser coaching with me before next Sunday's deadline, you'll get the rest of this year, plus all of 2026 to work with me (so that's almost 14 months, instead of the usual 12 months)
After next Sunday the price will go up to $1997 when I offer it in the future, so get it for 50% off (just $997 now) while you
can!
