Needing to make sure every nook and cranny was addressed before putting my message out there. And that was a big leap.

Other Quotes From the Chat with Danny Hadas:
- “’emovation’ is a combination… It is a play on the word innovation and emotions. Its innovation powered by emotions because the methodology of ’emovation’ asking, answering, acting on the question how do you want your people to feel? And what will you do to have them feel that way in?… Things like appreciated, valued, inspired, connected and powerful. Those are examples of emotions you might want people to feel. And when it comes to how to have feeling that way there is work required. And that is what ’emovation’ is. Doing the work to have people feel the way you intend”
- “culture is being created whether you realise it or not. And if you are a solopreneur you are the culture. If you have got a couple of employees and you are the leader of the business you really are creating the culture; every word, gesture, phone call, email, text message that you make. ”
- “Sales and marketing. I’ve achieved excellence as a consultant, I brought multi-million-dollar projects to life but I had very little experience pitching those projects or even finding someone to pitch to, that wasn’t what I did. Business is not a build it and they will come phenomenon. In fact, you can market and sell a business before it’s fully built and still provide an incredible product and experience for your customer. So, for me knowing the ins and outs of sales and marketing when I started or even focusing on that when I started would have cut the learning curve for sure”
- “… Definitely having a plan, definitely surrounding yourself with people who can listen for what’s important to you as you build your business who will hold you accountable to what you said you were going to do when it comes to building your business. And being in action even if the action is not perfect. There is no shift in performance without action. Dreams don’t come true by dreaming them, they don’t come true by thinking them, dreams come true by taking action. So, surrounding yourself by people who will hold you accountable, having a plan you can take action towards and then actually taking that action and constantly being in action. Action, action, action”
