Entrepreneurial Role Models:
Bill Weiland founder of Presence Marketing, Inc
When business started difficulties overcame:
“I’ve always kind of had an entrepreneurial spirit and I have had several businesses before I got into this one, before I got into the natural industry. But the challenges Neil were really not knowing exactly what business I was going to get into. I left my job before I had an official plan… So, my biggest challenge was getting really clear on what my business was and how I was going to show up and how I was going to serve. And it took me a little while and a few details to get to where I am at today”…[Listen for More]

Best Advice to Other Entrepreneurs:
“get really clear on what it is you are doing, what you are building, why you are building it and then to trust yourself, to trust the process and to take the steps that you are being called to take way before it feels like you are ready to take them. You wouldn’t be having that intuitive hit, you wouldn’t be having that curiosity, you wouldn’t be having that drive come up for you if there wasn’t truth and a path forward for you to follow”…[Listen for More]

Other Quotes From the Chat with Kate LaBrosse:
- “a couple of adjustments I would make if I went back is, I would bring someone on my team actually sooner than I did… I work better when I’ve got somebody to communicate with, to plan with outside of me. When it’s just kind of me spinning in my head I get a little lost. So, it’s helpful for me to have a team to work with. So, I would have brought somebody onto my team sooner than I did. And I also would have really honoured the commitments that I made in the beginning. I had identified this business that I wanted and then I took this whole crazy detour to basically come back to it and fully commit to it. So, I would have honoured that commitment from the beginning Neil and really went in and do the work I was being guided to do ”
- “as an entrepreneur you have to make sure that you are doing the work that is actually going to have a financial impact on your business. And again, not just get caught up in all the other things that might feel fun or more easy or more exciting. But you really got to just dive in and do the things that are going to actually bring in the money, bring in the clients. If you are not bringing in money you don’t have a business you have a hobby”
- “having clarity of vision around what it is you are doing and why you are doing it. That guides me every day and that keeps me going when things get really hard and it feels like it would be easier just to go back and make a really comfortable six-figure salary at a corporate job. That keeps me going, that vision, that mission”
- “having your own practice of staying connected to yourself of staying balanced and grounded I think is so huge as an entrepreneur”
- “my story does not define me; I define my story”
