An expert business owner once gave me the best advice I had ever heard. Don’t start a business unless you have 200 reasons for starting it. Not just 200 reasons for the sake of things. But 200 reasons as to how your business can serve and over-deliver to others. So when I started my Life coaching business. I sat down and wrote in a book 200 reasons as to how my business can serve others on an exponentially high level.
It wasn’t about me...it was all about the clients permanent highly developed transformation. When I got to 100 I was literally crying. I thought this was going to be easy. Think again!
No way was it easy. I was very determined to get to 200. So, when I got to 200 reasons, after painstakingly 7 days of thought and writing. I had a secret transformation. Read on.
I believed more than ever in my business. I felt I had given birth after extreme birth pangs. And so Champagne life coaching was born. My baby. Mine. I owned it. I conceived the idea and gave birth to my gorgeous bouncing bubbly life coaching business.

I then use these 200 reasons as the foundation of my advertising. As a start up business not all of us can afford to have a marketing director. So on the days that I felt to exhausted to create an advert. Or social media post. I fell back on one of my 200 reasons and posted around its core.
