15 Most Important Questions You Can Ask About Your Business or Professional Career Right Now

How did you do? 

Can we assume that you found a bunch of the above questions only deserved a 4, a 3 or maybe even a 2. In fact, you might have had one or two that you gave the score of just 1. 

What's the Solution?   
 We have found that the best solution is to find someone you can trust to help you improve these scores. No, not a therapist. A peer advisory group commonly called mastermind groups, where 5 - 10 business people (owners, reps, professionals) get together and brainstorm on the issues facing the members. If you'd like to learn more about the mastermind concept, and even where to find a group to join, please check out https://socalmasterminds.com
 

 

7 Shocking Facts About Serial Entrepreneur Elon Musk, Tesla, SpaceX, and the Future of Humankind

We all know by now, unless you are living under a rock, that Elon Musk seems almost superhuman in his ability to bring dramatic change to huge industries. In his 25 year career he has tackled online mapping, banking, energy, space, batteries, automobiles, tunneling, trains, solar power, satellite broadband, and neuro-computer brain hookups. And though he has had a bunch of near misses, he has yet to fail in any of these efforts.

The record book of his achievements would require a longer post that this one, so let's just stick to the biggies:

1. SpaceX launched more rockets in 2018 than any sovereign country, much less company, has ever launched.
2. Tesla Model 3 is the best selling luxury car in the US, best selling sedan in the US, and best selling Electric Vehicle in the world.
3. The Tesla S with ludicrous is the fastest production car in 1/4 mile and 0-60. This record is in flux, but the only real challengers are limited production cars.
4. The Tesla Gigafactory is the largest building in the world (footprint.) Only the Boeing factory competes, and that is by volume, not footprint.
5. Tesla is the largest, by far, manufacturer of lithium-ion batteries. With it's partner, Panasonic, who provides the cells, Tesla makes 60% of the worlds lithium batteries.
6. Tesla has built the largest battery ever and pioneered the idea of using batteries as a way to make wind and solar generation more efficient.
7. SpaceX was the first private company to deliver supplies to the International Space Station

I wrote a book about this Musk character, because I believe that his methods will work for others who are seeking success in any field, but especially for entrepreneurs and those who wish to be self employed in the future. You can find the book at Amazon as Kindle, Paperback, and shortly in Audible.

Who Do You Think Is the Greatest Entrepreneur of Our Time?

 Who is the greatest entrepreneur of our time: Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerburg, Jeff Bezos, Sir Richard Branson, Larry Ellison, Sergey Brin, Carlos Slim, Charles Koch, David Koch, Michael Bloomberg, Amancio Ortega, Warren Buffet, Ma Huateng, Jack Ma or Elon Musk?

The list above only includes those who are essentially self made. The Koch Brothers father left them a medium sized business. The list only includes those who have accumulated vast fortunes in their lifetimes, and all are worth many billions of dollars. (One exception is Steve Jobs, but to leave him off this list would be a travesty) As of this writing, if you used wealth as the only gauge, you would have Jeff Bezos, the Koch brothers and Bill Gates, in that order

Almost all of these individuals have been disruptive in some way. One could vote for a candidate based on disruption, rather than total accumulated wealth. In this case, you could easily argue that Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk have disrupted the most industries.

Steve Jobs - The personal computer and smart phone have dramatically reduced or killed off print media, cameras, telephones, music on any form of physical media, mail, faxes, typewriters, and even flashlights. More over, it seems without argument that the smart phone is the most important device ever invented.

Jeff Bezos - Amazon has demolished book stores, crushed retail stores in general, and has hurt some service industries. He is also the undisputed leader in cloud storage. Of course, like Musk and Branson, he has set his sites on outer space.

Now consider Elon Musk. Learn more about Musk in my new book, The Elon Musk Method

Elon Musk realized that the end was near for printed phone books and newspaper advertising by local retailers. He created Zip.2 that was the forerunner to Yelp, GoogleMyBusiness, City Search and all other similar online directories.

Musk also realized that banking was vulnerable to the the internet and started X.com which became PayPal, radically affecting the way people pay one another and businesses.

SpaceX was his next venture. SpaceX has taken over the space industry from no less than the US Government and Russia, and now launches more rockets each year than all other countries combined. His StarLink satellites are designed to completely dominate the WiFi business within three years as he launches 12,000 small satellites with broadband capability.

While running Space X, Musk bought into Tesla, and is now CEO of the largest manufacturer of sedans in the US, but more importantly the largest manufacturers of electric vehicles in the world. His success has forced every automaker in the world to make massive investments in electric vehicles.

Tesla is now the world's largest producer of batteries and has created the largest battery in the world. The batteries are made primarily at the largest building (by footprint) in the world. The only competition is Boeing, who has a larger building by total volume. The battery manufacturing is combined with manufacturing of solar panels and integrated solar roofs, and is disrupting the solar energy and roofing business.

Potential disruptions comes from Musk's Hyperloop concept (trains), his Boring Company (highways), and Neurolink (attaching computers directly to humans.)

So, when it comes to disruption of major industries, Musk has no equal. His ability to move into one industry after another and then completely dominate the category or change the way the industry does business is the reason I wrote the Elon Musk Method: Business Principles from the World's Most Powerful Entrepreneur.  

I'm hoping that you will find that many of his methods are helpful to you in becoming more successful as a business owner, manager, or a leader of any organization.

Corporate to SMB - Transition from Corporate Staff to Owning Your Own Small Business Can Be a Huge Shift

“I sure do miss the support, the accountability, and…oh yeah…the paycheck!”

Those who have worked for or owned a small business for any length of time are used to making it up as they go along and have a very hard time fitting into a corporate culture. Alternatively, those who have been used to thriving in a corporate environment with rules, procedures, and accountability often have a very hard time owning a small business. 

As the president of SoCal MasterMinds we have seen an unexpected trend. A substantial percentage of our membership have spent the majority of their careers in big companies, but due to downsizing, mergers, burn out, and other life-altering changes, have ended up owning a franchise or independent small business. 

In my recently released third edition of  When Friday Isn't Payday: How to Plan, Start, Build, and Manage Your Small Business,  I make the claim that most entrepreneurs are woefully underprepared for their venture. They commonly have low aptitude, training, and or experience in such fundamentals as accounting, managing others, marketing, and especially, sales.

These shortcomings are commonly somewhat balanced by passion, youth, low personal overhead, and few deeply ingrained business habits. The 35-year old who quits her job at the bakery to open her own shop is used to the small business environment and has had a chance to study at least some aspects of what it takes to survive.

The big company type who buys a business, a franchise, or starts their own enterprise from scratch is used to training, readily available resources of all kinds, and the need to wear only one or two hats.

Overnight they are thrust into a foreign culture where their new business depends on their ability to find prospects, sell those scary folks, establish proper books, collect receivables, establish procedures to ensure that products and services are delivered above expectations, price appropriately, and keep overheads in line. And all of this is done with the expectation of replacing that corporate paycheck and all the benefits…and soon.

What we are seeing in our MasterMind groups is extreme frustration, often a kind of paralysis, and life savings being wiped out in short order.

Here’s one story:

“When I worked for the company, I was required to make 100 calls per week. I am competitive by nature, so I would always make more calls than my team members. Those calls would result in five appointments, and I would close three. I was always a top producer.

“Now that I’m on my own, I have no pressure to make the calls, there is no competitive environment, and so I putz around with nonsense rather than get on the phone. I am far less productive now than I was.”

Here’s another:

“I opened my practice after leaving a large firm. I am now faced with finding clients. I have never marketed anything and have no training in sales. Friends tell me that I need to go knock on doors. I’m petrified by that idea. I hate salespeople. Why would I want to be one?”

Or this:

“I’m having a pretty good year, or so it seems. My customers seem to like what we’re offering. But about 70% of my income is from one client, and they are running about 90 days on my invoices. They now owe me $30,000. I don’t want to complain. They might stop doing business with me. Then what?”

The list of examples could go on for another 20 pages. In fact, I’ve decided to write a future book on this subject. But for today, what can these folks do?

• Become an expert in each of the disciplines that are problematic. Read  When Friday Isn't Payday: How to Plan, Start, Build, and Manage Your Small Business, and other books that teach the basic principles of running a small enterprise. Then find book, online tutorials, YouTube videos, college classes, or other training to help go deeper into each area as needed. 
• In particular, become an expert salesperson. There are hundreds of resources that can help. You will need to either sell or find someone to sell for you or you have almost no chance of success. In the beginning, it is usually a much better idea for you to do the selling. In this way you learn what is needed to get and keep great clients. 
• Join a MasterMind group where you can get the expert opinion from peers who have done it before and understand what you’re going through. You also get the missing accountability. 
• It can’t be done in 40 hours. You will need to work as many hours as necessary during the first few years. You won’t make your old paycheck until you have put in the sweat equity. It could take 3-5 years or more. 
• If you are a franchise, lean heavily on the franchise management to help you with areas where you are weak. While it may sometimes be hard to believe, the do have a vested interest in your success. The original fee you paid was very nice for them, but it is the ongoing revenue stream they count on to actually keep them in business. 
• If your finances are getting short, cut back every unnecessary expense until you have positive cash flow. 
• A business manager or coach may be able to help you in those areas where you are weak. Make sure you see a clear ROI from their services.

It is possible to make the transition from corporate to small business, but you will need to be persistent and aggressive to do so.

34 Questions Help You Determine Your BQ - Business Quotient. WIll You Be the Next Elon Musk?

In case you haven't heard, starting and managing a small business is VERY HARD, takes an amazing array of skills, temperaments, and ... well, let's not spoil the test.

In the course of writing the 3rd edition of When Friday Isn't Payday: How to Plan, Start, Build, and Manage Your Small Business, it occurred to me that there might be a way to give prospective owners a sort of aptitude test. People like me who can't draw a stick figure should probably not go into graphic arts, even with all the fancy new tools. It turns out the same can be said for business aptitude. Some folks shouldn't go that direction.

Well, the test has another application. Do you know any business owners who are failing, barely getting by, and/or hate their life (or what's left of it after 70-hour weeks)? Me, too. So, the test is for them, as well. I know plenty of lawyers who gave it up because it just wasn't worth it.

Enough blab. Go here to take the test. You can tell us your score or make other comments about the test below.

New! Startling Discovery of #1 Success Factor for New Small Business

Serial entrepreneur and business author rewrites his list of success factors for start up businesses

After an extensive internet search to see what others say about success factors, I found exactly one which included my number one in their top ten. On that particular resource, my number one was their number ten. The other lists were created using various approaches, including interviews with successful entrepreneurs, studies compiled by consultants or writers, and off the top of the head articles based on experience.

My research? As a marketing consultant I have spent the last ten years helping over 170 small businesses in very disparate fields with increasing their sales and profits. Over the past year I have participated in organizing MasterMind groups and Business Networking Referral called E-TEAM. Through this effort I have been introduced to another 100 companies where I was able to go deep into their companies success factors.

Also, I have started and managed 15 successful small businesses and 3 unsuccessful ones.


So here is my top ten list of why businesses succeed:

1. Desire
2. Sales
3. Marketing
4. Luck
5. Accounting 
6. Planning

 I would certainly agree with some of the other lists that adequate capital, location, good bookkeeping, appropriate margins, and things like traffic, leads, and conversion are critical as well. However, desire is that intangible which overcomes inadequacies that are always present in any business, whether start up or mature. 

If you follow my blog or other writings, you know that I want to be remembered for the phrase "nothing happens until something is sold." In my dealings with small business owners over the last half century, I am constantly appalled by the lack of sales skill. That lack of skill is often accompanied by a fear of prospecting, cold calling, and selling. Well, I don't really care how good your location is, how wonderful your product or service is, or whether you are priced right if there is no one to get the word out. And no, you won't get folks lined up at your door or your phone ringing of the hook with great web presence alone. 

If the owner hates to sell, desire to succeed, desire to help others, desire to spread the word about the fantastic offer the company is making can overcome the reluctance to do the hard thing and sell. This proposition can be applied to all the other hard things, like hiring, firing, working 100 hours a week, or digging deeper and deeper into savings when necessary, then calling Uncle Harry when your own money runs out. 

If the owner is lukewarm about the business, the smallest hurdle can undo the entire effort. But if the owner is passionate enough, there is almost nothing that can get in the way of success.  

 

“I Hate Selling” and Two Other Reasons Why Small Business Owners Fail

 

How Can You Overcome The Three Primary Issues that Kill Small Businesses?

As my beautiful bride and I walked along Pacific Palisades Park in Santa Monica on a sun-drenched day, she wondered aloud about our upcoming wedding anniversary, “How would you feel about renting a hotel or small cottage for two nights. I’m thinking it needs to be close enough to the ocean where we can hear the waves. I’m really drawn to every part of coastal living right now. Don’t you think that would be a great way to go down memory lane regarding our time together.”

Toni is not a salesperson. The idea of spending even one moment in the business of selling products or services to others would be horrific to her. But the pitch above was masterful, and the close was artful. We all sell all the time. So why do business owners commonly say that they hate to sell?

I would propose that most don’t hate selling. They are perfectly happy to talk to someone about their product or service and see if there’s an opportunity to do business. It isn’t the act of selling that chills the soul. What many dread is the prospecting such as cold calling, selling to strangers who might say no, or following up on initial calls. When you call to ask for the decision the answer might be no or the calls and emails may not ever be returned. In other words, doing the hard things.

Number one on the list of why business owners fail…Nobody is selling. What about number two? It’s related. The owner doesn’t want to do the hard thing, so he or she hires it done. This might be hiring a salesperson, a sales rep agency, a social media lead generation company or any one of a number of ways to avoid the hard aspects of selling. Unfortunately, it is the rare owner who actually becomes expert in managing any of these resources.

You see, it is hard to sales manage others when you don’t know how to sell. It is hard to know which rep group to hire if you haven’t studied how rep groups work. It is hard to evaluate a social media agency if you don’t really get social media. You can spend a huge amount of money in an attempt to generate traffic, leads, or sales with little to show for the effort. Small businesses fail for lack of the necessary capital to overcome the reluctance of the owner to sell and the costs of the learning curve necessary to become proficient with alternative approaches.

If business owners hate to “sell,” they hate accounting even more. Most might not really hate accounting if they had ever taken a course or read a book about business accounting. Regardless of the reasons, most small businesses fail to set up good accounting systems, fail even harder at managing input into the systems they do establish, receive reporting from their accounting systems that is inadequate at best, and have no ability to analyze and make corrections in response to the reporting, because they don’t know how to read the reports.

The comparison here would be that your heart surgeon does surgery with no idea what is happening with your temperature, breathing, blood pressure, pulse, brain function, etc. The second reason that so many small businesses fail is due to the bookkeeping being inadequate. Why? Because the owner doesn’t want to do the hard things.

Hiring, managing, motivating, firing! These are hard things. The government doesn’t help owners love dealing with employees with its endless rules, laws, and meddling with the employer/employee relationship. So just after the owner says he hates selling, and hates accounting, the third verse is: “I hate HR.”

It goes without saying that this is just one more “hard thing” where the owner doesn’t want to take the time to develop expertise. There are countless resources available on how to hire, how to manage, how to motivate, and how to fire an employee. But the reality is that the small business who reaches the size that allows it to hire employees is commonly driven out of business by the bad hiring choices and the ineffectiveness of the employee (s) once hired.

Successful businesses are commonly those where the skills of the owner are so great that they overcome the barriers presented by failings in these three critical areas. For instance, you might have a retailer who is so good at merchandising and choice of location that the customers come and buy even if the sales staff is not that great.

You will see the outstanding lawyer or doctor whose reputation results in referrals and the accounting doesn’t matter, except that the company could be doing so much better if the collection of past due invoices was better.

Or you have the manufacturer who creates a product so compelling that inefficiencies in line and staff positions only reduce profit, they don’t kill the company.

As a consultant and a mastermind facilitator, I have seen hundreds of such companies; those that make it in spite of themselves, and those that fail for these very reasons. What I have seen is that owners who join a mastermind group quickly learn about the places where they are getting in their own way, failing to do the hard things, or on the verge of failure because of issues like the above.

When you surround yourself with peers who have unique business experience, skills, and education, you are going to have individuals within that cadre who will see right through your defenses and into the heart of the matter.

Those peers will care enough to spell it out. As an owner we rarely hear the truth. In fact, we rarely feel safe enough to speak the truth. But in a mastermind group we quickly see that the others in the room get it. They’ve experienced the same fears, roadblocks, regrets, and failings. They’ve been offered opportunities like the ones currently on your radar. They’ve made good and bad choices. They can speak with great authority because they’ve lived it. And they can speak honestly because they have no vested interest in the outcome.

What If Your Business is B2B only and the Networking Chapter Your Checking Out Is Heavily B2C?

Small business marketing today is moving from an advertising driven paradigm to one based on networking, connecting, relationship building, and reviews and referrals. Consumer goods better have great reviews on Amazon, and service businesses better have great reviews on Yelp. Then you have review platforms on Facebook business pages and Linkedin, too.

All of those systems are passive. Sure you can work them, try to optimize them, even spam them, but they all require that the customer find you through search.

Proactivity, on the other hand, relies more than ever on face to face, or at least text/email relationship building. There are plenty of folks trying to sell small business on the idea that this can be done through Linkedin prospecting, Facebook video ads, or Instagram storytelling. In fact, I’ve made a good living and helped my clients use some of those tools t

o excellent results over the last decade or so. You should be using them.

But almost every small business owner or rep I talk to says the same thing. They either need to go door-to-door or else do some form of organized networking. Some of the possibilities include:

• Mixers
• Chamber of Commerce Events
• Service Club membership
• Trade shows and local pop up booth events
• Business Referral Networking Groups. 

All of the above hold their own special charms and can work if they are worked hard and with great intentionality. For this post, however, let’s take a deep dive into the world of Business Referral Networking organizations.

Can You Make Money through a Business Referral Organization?

The following are my recommendations for choosing the right group. But first allow me to tell you a few things that will influence my position. I have been a member of three different groups, have attended meetings of the largest group, and have written about this type of marketing in at least two of my business books. So, yes! I believe this is a solid way to generate new business with a very reasonable investment of time, money, and energy.

I am also currently a director for E-TEAM, a brand new division of TEAM, one of the largest referral networking organizations in the US. However, I think you will see that this position is not causing any bias as you review the methods for selecting the right group.

How to Choose the Right Business Referral Networking Chapter

You see, I’m going to focus on the chapter, not the parent organization. So here are the criteria I would use:

1.     No less than 15 active members. No more than 35. Some very large groups are very successful, but you rarely have time to give a presentation of your business. Less than 15 is usually a club in distress that is on the way to folding. The exception would be one that is growing under a solid leader.

2.     Check before you go as to whether your category is taken or compromised. Some chapters will go to great lengths to divide up categories, so they get everyone to join. You benefit if you have more breadth.  

3.     When you attend, pay attention to the protocol. All such groups insist on using good networking approaches during the 15 minutes or so before the formal meeting starts. Are the members standing up and actively networking? Do you get greeted by one or more members?

4.     Check the membership as they give their 1-minute elevator speeches. Are there power partners for you in the room? In other words, are their individual members who share clients with you? E.g. Real Estate Agent, Mortgage Broker, Handyman, Escrow Company.

5.     Now listen carefully to see how much business is being passed. The rule of thumb is four referrals per member per month. So, in a room of 15, you’d expect around 15 referrals to be passed. If less than 5 outside referrals (non-member referrals) , you need to at least ask some questions.

6.     Always check two or three groups before you decide, unless you are there because of a strong recommendation or unless the chapter is obviously super strong and perfect for you.

This has been a serious problem and may still be a problem in your neighborhood. I was a part of such a group. It was a really good group, friendly and doing business. Unfortunately, I wasn’t getting a single usable referral. To be 100% honest, the first week I was given a power partner referral that turned out to be golden. Then nothing. 

A New Kind of Business Referral Group Is Launched - B2B Only

I happened to get into a conversation with the CEO of TEAM Referral Networking, Kelli Holmes. We discussed my problem. She said she had a solution. A new kind of chapter where all the members were B2B. Essentially this meant that every member of the group was a power partner for every other member.

I attended a local chapter and found the difference to be amazing. The payroll guy, the merchant services gal, and the website developer all had exactly the same client profiles. So did the business broker, the commercial printer, and the business banker.

As I looked around the table at the commercial realtor, the business coach, and the commercial photographer, I realized that every single person could basically hand over their customer and prospect data base to the person next to them, and they could just start calling that list. But instead, the merchant services rep had spoken to their bakery customer about the payroll services guy, and the baker was expecting a call.

The result of that meeting was a decision to partner with TEAM and become a director for this new kind of B2B only referral group. We call it E-TEAM and were opening them throughout Southern California at this time, with plans to expand nationally soon.

We are actively building clubs in the Inland Empire, the Eastern portion of LA County (Covina/Pomona/Diamond Bar) and Northern Orange County. Our plans are to begin organizing additional chapters in DTLA, San Gabriel Valley and WLA in the Fall of 2018.

If you would be interested in joining a chapter of an E-TEAM B2B Referral Networking Group, please call Randy Kirk at 310-910-1848 or email at Randy@TeamReferralNetwork.com. We are also looking for individuals who would like to help build a chapter in their area. For more information please visit SoCalMasterMinds.com/team

Five Reasons Why You Should Join a MasterMind group – Three Reasons Not To

It was Harold’s turn to be in the hot seat at his MasterMind group meeting. Harold was no different than most who have come before a group of their peers to expose their innermost business goals, needs, and problems. He was anxious. 

However, he had seen how others before him had weathered the brutal honesty and heartfelt advice from the group, and he had also seen how they had been catapulted to change in ways that drove better sales, profits, and quality of life.

But Harold’s time would be a bit different than the others. He had never really faced himself in any real sense, nor had he had anyone in his tribe who was willing to be honest with him. 

What came next was both ugly and necessary. Harold became defensive and angry under the questioning of his motivations, his methods, and his results. His defensiveness became the issue, which only created more walls to go up in Harold’s emotional response. The result was that Harold got very little that would help his business from his hot seat experience.

On the other hand, as the next hours, days, and even weeks played out, Harold met with members one-on-one, and recognized how he had sabotaged his opportunity. His apologized to the group as he realized how his ego got in the way of his ability to hear truth.

#1 Reason to Not Join a MasterMind group & #1 Reason to Join

You should NOT join a MasterMind group to confirm you own understandings about yourself, your business, or your expectations. In fact, the number one reason to join is to have those very things examined, tested, and challenged. As business professionals who run our own show, we are almost always in a bubble, an ivory tower, an echo chamber. Our only resource for good counsel is ourselves. King Solomon knew the results of such counsel “Where there is no counsel, plans fail.” 

#2 Reason to Not Join - You're Happy Being Meh. Join MasterMind Only if You Want to Soar

You SHOULDN’T join a MasterMind group if you’re happy with your current results. As a consultant for the past decade, I’ve run into dozens of business people who have invested time, sweat, money, training, and taken huge risks just to make $60-$80,000 per year. And when asked, some of those will say, “I’m okay with that.”

 

You should join a MasterMind group if you’re not “okay with that.” The other members of the group are going to use every ounce of their creativity and business skill to provide you with new ways to improve personally and professionally. If you aren’t interested in improving, they will lose interest in your participation. MasterMind members are driven by the desire to see things flourish, not wither and die.

If You Lack Persistence, Don't Join a MasterMind Group

#3 reason why you shouldn’t join a MasterMind group. Lacking persistence.  Most small business owners and reps are getting mediocre results because they don’t want to do the hard things. MasterMind is a place where that reality is going to be handed to you by a group of your peers. Peer pressure may be just what you need to do those hard things, but don’t come expecting to find a simple, passive, non-threatening way to make the big bucks. 

Join If You're Ready to Break Out of Your Comfort Zone

 

You should join a MasterMind group if you are really frustrated with your inability to break out to the next level, whether that is breaking $100,000 a year or $1m per year. Join if you are making lots of money, but you’re not enjoying life. Join if you are making money, but have new directions you’d like to try, and need wise counsel to check your decisions.

Finally, you should join a MasterMind group if you are looking for a permanent board of directors who have no reason to kid you, passify you, or stroke you, but will enjoy the thrill of helping you become all that you can be. 

MasterMind Groups are being formed in Southern California right now. If you would be interested in learning more about joining a group are starting a group in SoCal, please call Randy Kirk @310-910-1848 or email at RandyKirk77@gmail.com
