You tell yourself, “This year, I’m gonna do it!” You write down your business goal. You put it where you can see it constantly. You’re determined to reach that pinnacle you’ve set for yourself this time! A few months later... you’ve forgotten about it or given up on it.

We tend to only set goals once a year, and that’s one of the reasons why goal setting often doesn’t work for most people. On day 4 of this series, I take a different approach to goal setting to help you establish business milestones you’ll actually follow through on in 2024.

On this episode of Promote Yourself to CEO:

4:54 - Many of us have such a love/hate relationship with goal setting. Why does it fail so often?

6:17 - As you brainstorm all of your potential goals for the new year, refrain from doing this.

8:40 - What is in your client growth engine and in your team engine? 

10:50 - I talk about using my five-part framework (Attract, Engage, Nurture, Invite, and Delight) to help you as you create goals.

16:12 - Once you’ve brainstormed, how can you narrow your goals down to five for the year? Think about how you’re setting yourself up for success.
