If you don't have more than one revenue stream please read this article carefully!
By having only one income stream you are putting yourself in financial danger.
Let's say you just work on 1-1 with clients. What happens when times get slow, like in the summer or holidays? Where will your income come from? We all need income right?
Plus, with only working 1-1 you are constantly looking for new clients and not only can that be a pain, I don't want you coming across as desperate for clients because you will push potential clients away.
There are many ways to add another or more income streams to your business, whether it's a coaching business or other business. You don't see restaurants with only one food option. You don't see hardware stores with just hammers. In many ways your coaching business is no different than that.
Let's talk about some options for you. You might create your Signature System. Take a look at what you do with your 1-1 clients. They may come to you for different desired results but my guess is if you look closely you will see you can create a 'system' of what you do with them. (I can help you with this if you want)
Then you take your Signature System and do a free call, a free Teleclass. You record it, maybe even get the Transcript done and you sell it as a product.
You can take any expertise you have and do the same thing. Do a free call, record it, Transcribe it and you have another product to put on your website and all over Facebook and whatever other social media you use.
You could do a VIP day. This is a day (4-5 hours) that you do on the phone or in person. You take a good look at your expertise and pick one or two topics from that, that you think others would be interested in learning about. You could get a group together or doing individually. Sometimes individually is easier than trying to get a group together.
Clients LOVE these days. I have done many of these, individually and groups, all with great success. There is another income stream and since it's your expertise, it shouldn't take too long to get it ready. Design an outline of the day and provide some handouts.
So, there are 3 examples of how to add another revenue stream, or two, to your current business.
There are many more, of course, but this is a start for you.
I hope this has been helpful and you get some creative ideas for yourself and have success!

How important is an Ethical Will to Boomer Women? Very.
Ethical Wills have been around for many generations but seem to be regaining their strength. That may be simply because many of you are getting to the stage in life where you begin thinking about what you are passing along to your children or other loved ones. Another term for Ethical Wills might be a “Values and Vision Statement.” In a nutshell, it is a tool for passing your memories, values and traditions to your loved ones and future generations. Keep in mind that an Ethical Will is not a legal document.

This is only one article so I can't go into a lot of depth but hopefully I can get you thinking in the right direction.

Be Honest. How Much Money Will You Have to Retire On When You Stop Working?
I wonder how many of you even know. I'll bet a lot of you don't know. Or you kind of know but not really. It's vitally important for you to know. For some of you, if you have a more 'elaborate' retirement planned (lots of travel etc) you will need more than someone who has very simple wants and desires. There certainly is no right way but you need to know your truth. One of the lucky things about being a woman is you generally live longer than men. Wonderful!! But you will need more money.
