Sales Success & Holiday Joy

Hey Reader, Every year around this time, I see storefront small business owners hit the same wall: They want great holiday sales…but they also want to enjoy the holidays themselves. And it feels like you have to choose. Let me say this clearly: You do NOT have to sacrifice your peace to make money in your business. Your schedule can be intentional.Your sales can be steady.Your stress can be LOW.Your holidays can actually feel like and be holidays for you. I’m helping a small group of...

Today I want to debunk the biggest "sales" myth about Holiday shopping storefront business owners believe. 🚫 MYTH: More Promotions = More sales! ✅ FACT: You don’t need complicated "sales" to have a highly profitable holiday season. Having too many offers actually cost small storefront owners more money. Here’s what DOES work: 💡 One simple promotion that customers love 💡 Easy-to-understand signage 💡 Clear customer communication 💡 A plan that doesn’t require YOU to be in the building nonstop 🎄💸...

Hey Reader, If you’re a storefront business owner (service or retail based), this is the moment where everyone is telling you you’re “behind” if you don’t have a Black Friday plan. But here’s the truth: Black Friday sales are metrics that matter for big retailers.Small local businesses make most of their holiday money between Dec 1–24. So no, you’re not behind.You’re actually right on time. And if you want a simple, custom plan for the next 30 days that helps you make more sales and lets YOU...

Hey, Reader! The 2025 government shutdown might already feel like old news, but guess what? My tried & true strategies for weathering economic shifts aren't! In my latest episode of the Harmony Not Hustle podcast, I spilled the beans (and maybe a cup of coffee on my pants) on keeping your revenue flowing while scoring FREE promos and serving up some community love. Because if you have a spouse like I do, who works for the Federal Government and was deemed essential enough to work but not get...

HeyReader, In this week’s episode of the Harmony Not Hustle Podcast, I walk through 3 simple ways to increase revenue in your storefront business without adding overspending on new merch or adding more services to your plate.I share how one client and I identified a hidden revenue generator within her store and how we optimized it using what she already had. And reopen access to one of my most watched training for product based and people service-centered storefront business owners! 🎧 Listen...

Hey Reader, One of my clients that owns & operates a storefront recently increased her revenue by 30% by implementing a strategy I put together for her and she didn’t add a single new product. My client thought when sales were slow that it must be the inventory was stale. She thought she needed to add new inventory several times a week to keep things fresh.Instead, we focused on refining what was already working, like her window displays. We just created a formula that made those "working...

Hey Reader, Have you felt it lately? That pressure to figure out a new way to run your business—without a clear map? You’re not alone. And it’s not your fault. I’ve been hearing the same thing from so many entrepreneurs I work with: “I don’t think I want to offer this anymore... but I don’t know what’s next.” “The way I used to market isn’t working anymore.” “Everything feels harder than it used to—and I’m tired.” Listen, the market has changed. Buyer behavior has changed. You've changed. The...

Hey Reader If I’m being honest, this isn’t really a pivot. It’s a return. A reinvention of merging what’s always been true for me. You’ve probably heard me say this before, but I’ll say it again for the people in the back: We didn’t start these businesses just to box ourselves in. We wanted freedom. Flexibility. Fulfillment. And that means sometimes you have to let your business evolve—not just because you feel it, but because the market demands it. Right now, I’m seeing so many...

Hey Reader, I’ve been feeling my way through something for a while now. And I want to go ahead and say it out loud. You’ve heard me talk a lot about burnout, clarity, and energy management, and none of that is going anywhere. In fact, that's what the it’s what made this next step so clear to me. Here’s the thing: Over the last 18 months, I’ve found myself naturally returning to my roots. More and more I've been doing this work with entrepreneurs who’ve recently transitioned out of their...
