Author: Jennifer Barcelos and Sandy Connery September 8, 2019 Duration: 33:23
As we move into Fall, we honestly cannot wait to get down to more serious work and slide right back into high productivity mode. This is traditionally the busiest time of year for us. School is starting again, colder weather and the end of the year is looming, and it’s time to sip coffee and get down to business. It's the season for more work and there is literally no better time to get down to launching your first, or your new, online offering. These days, online courses have become akin to a business card and clients and students are increasingly coming to expect you to have some kind of dynamic online content. Online courses, membership sites, and group coaching programs can be an incredibly lucrative income stream. In this episode, we lay out the main reasons why now is a better time than ever to get started, so put that fear of failure aside and let's get things rolling!   Key Points From This Episode:   It is the season of more work! We love getting down to things in fall!   Online teaching and using this service as your new business card.   Experiential interactions; the trends of web-based platforms.   Creating another source of income from your online space.   Building a reputation, multiple revenue streams, and a solid audience.    It is so affordable to get online and start selling your expertise!   The ongoing puzzle and the success that constantly grows with time and effort.   The availability of cheap and amazingly useful tools for doing your thing!    Taking action to get past your fear of failure and anxieties around starting.   Learning and laughing at your failures; the correlation between wins and losses.   Our signature beta launch formula and why it is easier than ever to get yourself out there.   The timeline for getting to a launch from where you are!   And much more!   Words of Wisdom: “You need more than just a static presence on the internet, even social platforms are moving towards more experiential interaction.”   Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Namastream — https://namastream.comBecome an Online Teacher Course — https://www.soulful.mba/teacher Kevin Kelly — https://kk.orgWireless Go — https://www.rode.com/wirelessgo Sweetwater Audio — https://www.sweetwater.com   Joy: EmmaClaireShop on Etsy — https://www.etsy.com/shop/EmmaClaireShop Hustle: Beta Launch Lab Checklist— http://betalaunchlab.com/

There’s a particular kind of ambition that isn’t just about scaling a business, but about building a life that feels whole and authentic along the way. That’s the space where Soulful MBA Podcast lives. Hosted by Jennifer Barcelos and Sandy Connery, this is a conversation between two friends who are actually doing it-navigating the messy, rewarding reality of creating a company from nothing. They talk through the logistics of remote partnership, the challenges of conscious online engagement, and the personal growth that happens when your work is deeply tied to your values. It feels less like a lecture and more like you’re overhearing a candid, strategic coffee chat between two people who’ve been there. You’ll find practical advice woven into stories of trial and error, all aimed at ambitious women who are done with the hustle-for-hustle’s-sake model. This podcast serves as both a roadmap and a reassurance, proving that a successful business can be built with intention, friendship, and a lot of soul.
