Episode 79: Creating a Digital Commerce Business with Christina Scalera

Episode 79 Christina Scalera

Ever heard of the term Digital Commerce or “d-commerce”? Maybe not, but our guest this week is not only an expert on it, but coined the term herself. Christina Scalera helps her clients turn their services into best selling passive digital download products sold through an online storefront. From blowing up on TikTok to trademarking the term digital commerce, Miss Scalera tells us all her secrets to success. 

In this week’s episode Christina Scalera begins by walking us through her journey of starting The Contract Shop, and Christinascalera.com, her wildly successful online consulting and coaching business that helps others create d-commerce just as she did. Beginning as a lawyer, Scalera had a moment of realization that she would be doing the same thing day after day for the rest of her life. In attempts to change her path, she began a yoga blog, that turned into a yoga legal blog, and eventually gave her the idea to create contract templates she could passively sell online. 

Christina talks about how she sets herself apart from others by providing templates for various different aspects of the project. Instead of focusing on getting the client from A to Z, she helps make the dramatic leap from step A to step B or step S to step T. By helping the client take a tiny step forward, she really is allowing them to step forward a hundred percent from where they were because before they may have been stuck on a certain step in the process. 

Everyday is a new adventure. It’s like a new what’s gonna happen today?”

What you’ll learn in this episode: 

  • The term d-commerce
  • How to set up your own d-commerce site
  • How to go viral on TikTok

Episode 78: Setting Boundaries with Katrina Widener

Episode 78 Katrina Widener

The nine to five workday has remained the norm for over a hundred years and has become an increasingly toxic day to day environment for some. Our guest today, business coach Katrina Widener, went from a toxic nine to five to helping early stage entrepreneurs set up their businesses to be successful and fuel their lives. From being under someone else’s rules, to being seen as nothing but a number, Widener has experienced it all. In this episode listen along as the talented Katrina Widener guides us through her strategy to help entrepreneurs avoid burnout and achieve full alignment in their business to ultimately make more money without having to spend more time away from what’s most important. 

Widener walks us through her proactive business approach by taking a look at the big picture and asking yourself,  “how can I plan in advance for the life that I want?” She mentions that by being proactive rather than reactive you’re able to streamline the things you’re doing in the business so that you can reach your goals in the end. 

You may be thinking “I know what my dream life looks like but how do I get there?” Never fear, Kristina guides us through the necessities such as sitting down to take stock of your business, where you’re at, and how to get to where you want to be. She goes on to let us know that doing this requires you to get uncomfortable and be confident in your decision making. 

As the podcast nears its end, Kristina and Stephanie dive into the world of books and highlight plenty of good choices for our listeners. Having read over 52 books this year so far, it’s safe to say Kristina is a trusted source when it comes to book recommendations. 

I think also people can get a little bit stuck around this idea of, what if I make this change and it doesn’t work? My reminder is, nothing is permanent.” – Katrina Widener

What you’ll learn in this podcast: 

  • Proactive vs reactive business approach 
  • How to make confident decision making 
  • How to take stock of your business
  • Human Design

Episode 77 Our Business Tech Stack for 2022 with Stephanie Skryzowski podcast featured blog post image

Episode 77: Our Business Tech Stack for 2022

Episode 77 Our Business Tech Stack for 2022 with Stephanie Skryzowski podcast featured blog post image

Ready to take a peek into our super efficient tech stack for 2022? Great! Because I’m sooo ready to share it with the world!

I wouldn’t count myself as someone who’s super techy, BUT I do know the value of having the right tools and systems in place. There are so many new apps and it’s amazing how it can help businesses like ours automate tasks and optimize operations. But with so many options available, a lot of us can end up overwhelmed and end up making things a little complicated. But wow! Since we made streamlining our business the focus this year, things have been so much easier. So let me walk you through what we’ve used so far, how they worked, and the ones that we found to be real keepers!

100 Degrees Consulting Tech Stack (and how we’re using it to set out team up for success and support our clients):

  • Slack – This is what we use for our internal team communication. We use this to create a workspace and they have a feature called Huddle which automatically brings the team into a meeting so no more links that need to be sent out.
  • ClickUp – Our new project management system. This app can do so much but I have to admit it took a while to get used to. It helped us to make seamless transitions even if we have employees who are on leave or in an emergency.
  • Ignition – The newest app we’re currently testing out. This is an industry-specific software and it just is better for us because they have conversion rates in their dashboards and KPIs we need. It already knows accounting, bookkeeping, and even invoicing. So it is mighty powerful.
  • Calendly – Something we would be transitioning to as well because this app goes hand in hand with Ignition. This app handles all of the scheduling we need for our clients.
  • QuickBooks/ThriveCart/Stripe – All of our finances and processing payments go through these apps. Our clients are sent invoices using these apps and receive payments but these are probably going to be moved over to Ignition soon.
  • Gusto – Anything expenses related, we use this app to track and for our payroll. We’re also paying our contractors including our international staff. If we need anything related to time tracking, expense reimbursements or performance reviews, then this is a must have.
  • Libsyn – This is the podcast host I use for my episodes.
  • Audacity/Zoom – I both use these apps for my podcast solo episodes and guest episodes.
  • AMEX – we use credit cards for all of our expenses aside from payroll. Get those points, get those miles.

Other apps that were part of our tech stack previously:

  • Asana – project management app.
  • Dubsado – general software for generating proposals and agreements.
  • Acuity – scheduling app for meetings and calls.
  • TransferWise – a secondary site we use for international contractors.

This might look like a lot, but these tools were an absolute game-changer! It has helped us automate our systems and made our processes even more organized now. So, make sure you tune in, make notes and complete your epic tech stack hunt!

“We don’t need all of the platforms out there just because they sound cool, because a lot of ’em are really cool and they can do really cool things, but often I feel like we overcomplicate things and we really don’t need to.” – Stephanie Skryzowski

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • What does the 100 Degrees Consulting tech stack looks like
  • The apps that we love, didn’t love, and how it changed the way we do things
  • Importance of streamlining your business

Episode 75: 7 Steps to Set Your Business Up Right

Episode 75 Set Your Business Up Right in 7 Actionable Steps featured podcast image

Whether you’re just starting out and setting foundations in the early stages or consider yourself a business veteran, there’s always room for improvement. So, what things do you need to set your business up right? Well, in this episode we’ll talk about that and more. If you’ve been waiting for a sign, my friend, this is it! Now is the perfect time to make room in your calendar, and go through your business systems + process with a fine-toothed comb.

Here are the 7 steps to set your business up right from the start:

  1. Register your business with the IRS (or your tax government) – This will help you get recognized by your government that you are a legitimate business. Registering can give your business both legal and marketing advantages.
  2. Open a Separate Business Bank Account – Set up both a checking and savings account. Get ready for the future while you are setting aside money for both your taxes and earnings.
  3. Pick a Tool to Track Your Numbers – Start Recording your cash flow. It’s going to help you keep the data that will be used to forecast and compare results. What’s working and not working for your business.
  4. Create a Monthly Routine – Get to know your money. As the owner, you will need to know which money comes in and out of your business. This can guide you to make bigger decisions in the future.
  5. Hire Help – Professionals will indeed help you with possible future problems. Hiring a cpa, bookkeeper and/or attorney are a few people you actually need. The importance of your numbers and contracts will come in handy as they make your work easier and less worried about future sales/deals.
  6. Pay Your Quarterly Taxes – Though there are other ways you can do this, it is still important to always put aside enough to pay taxes. There are rules and there are fees that might cost you in the future if you don’t get this sorted out.
  7. Automate your savings – Make sure you set aside a specified portion of your earnings to automatically deposit into your savings account regularly. This would definitely be a habit that will help your business in case of emergencies.

Now that you have a better grasp of the 7 Steps to Set Your Business Up Right, make it a habit to revisit steps 3 to 7 as your biz continues to grow. Set a clear intention and put them into action! 

“Set yourself up today for the business you want to be a year from now. And then, a year from now, you’re going to have exponential growth!” – Stephanie Skryzowski

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • 7 Steps to Setup Your Business Up Right
  • Importance of Paying Your Taxes

Episode 73 what to do when investments in your business don't work out with stephanie skryzowski featured blog post image

Episode 73: What To Do When Investments in Your Business Don’t Work Out

Episode 73 what to do when investments in your business don't work out with stephanie skryzowski featured blog post image

Are you an entrepreneur who likes to make investments in your business?

Investments can be a huge step in growing your business, but what do you do when they don’t work out as expected? Failed investments can be disheartening and it’s easy to start beating yourself up for it. I know I have! And most entrepreneurs have been there too, my friend. 

But here’s the thing: Just because it’s working out for somebody else, doesn’t mean it’s necessarily going to work out for you (and that’s okay!)

Here are 3 keys things to keep in mind before making investments in your business:

  1. Understand what’s working for your business –  Check your Return On Investment (ROI) on the different parts of your business. Whether you’re doing your online courses, services, consulting work, mastermind your hosting, or like those affiliate commissions that you’re getting, you have to know what’s giving you revenue and get rid of what’s not generating a return.
  2. Pick one thing at a time to go all-in on – If you want to launch a service, put your 100% effort there. If you really want to get the most out of a mastermind, then join one and get everything you can. You have to soak up all the knowledge there rather than joining different courses at the same time and get distracted.
  3. Look at your Forecast and your Future You – Think about your biggest goals and work backward. Ask yourself if this is the thing that you want to invest in towards that larger goal. Your decisions can be based on your business forecast and where you see yourself in the future. 

So if you ever feel lost or like you’re not sure about a decision, go back to these key points. And remember, it’s okay if something doesn’t work out the way you wanted it to. We can always learn from our mistakes and that’s how we grow!

“If you feel like you’ve made an investment in your business that has not panned out the way you wanted… Don’t beat yourself up about it. Take what you can from the experience and move on.” – Stephanie Skryzowski

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • My personal experience with failed investments
  • Importance of setting up your Business Goals
  • 3 Key Things Before Making Any Investment
  • How to stay positive and to learn from investment fails

Episode 71 An Easy Money Manifestation Tip featured blog post image

Episode 71: An Easy Money Manifestation Tip

Episode 71 An Easy Money Manifestation Tip featured blog post image

Manifestation, especially “money manifestation,” seems like a buzzword that’s been making its rounds on the internet lately. But what is it, really? And do CFOs (like me) actually believe in its power? Let’s dive in!

Soooo… first things first, what does money manifestation even mean?

Manifestation is the act of bringing something into existence. It’s often said that we manifest our own reality through our thoughts, feelings, and actions.

Notice how it says it requires thoughts, feelings… AND action? Yeah, unfortunately, a lot of people still misconstrue manifestation as some sort of magical power. They think that if they simply visualize what they want hard enough, it’ll just appear out of thin air.

As an Enneagram 3 and a ‘show me the numbers’ kind of person, I’m not particularly prone to believe in things that I can’t see or quantify. So, you could just imagine how I felt when I first heard about manifestation and its supposed power to help you manifest the life of your dreams.

But here’s the thing: I do believe that what we focus on expands.

So, if I want to boost my income and make it sustainable, guess where I focus my attention on? You got that right! I focus on money. Where is it coming from, how can we give our numbers a boost… you get the idea! And you know what happened? MONEY STARTED FLOODING IN.

Ready to manifest the same in your life and biz? Join me in this episode, as I talk about some real-life accounts of how abundance has showed itself in my life and in my business. Let me share with you an easy money manifestation tip, one that you can start practicing today!

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • What is money manifestation
  • Do CFOs believe in manifesting money
  • Why you need to focus on what you want to attract
  • The power of gratitude and taking aligned action towards your goals

More resources to help you attract more into your life and business:

Episode 70: Slow Down to Grow Your Business Sustainably with Jennifer Morilla

Episode 70 Slow Down to Grow Your Business Sustainably with Jennifer Morilla featured blog post image

Something that a lot of people don’t realize about running a successful business is that oftentimes, taking things slow is usually the best way to achieve sustainable growth.

And why is that?

Imagine if you’re trying to run a marathon. You can’t just go out and sprint the whole thing. If you try to do too much too quickly, chances are you’re going to end up burning yourself out before you even cross the finish line. The same goes for business. If you try to grow too quickly, you might end up making a lot of mistakes or bite off more than you can chew and end up spreading yourself too thin.

This week’s guest, Jennifer Morilla, knows a thing or two about setting a business up for success… but as with all the greats, that did not come without growing pains.

In fact, it took several years’ worth of mindset shifts and learning some tough life lessons before she was finally able to create the business and life of her dreams. And though her journey wasn’t always rainbows and unicorns, she’s grateful for everything she’s gone through because it has made her the strong, resilient woman she is today.

So, join us in this episode, as Jen opens up about her business coach origin story, and some of the biggest life lessons she’s learned along the way. She also shares how you can leverage your audience, the importance of setting boundaries, and so much more!

“If you don’t have boundaries… it is a recipe for disaster” – Jennifer Morilla

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Jennifer’s journey into building her online coaching business
  • Mindset shifts and lessons she learned during her pivoting phase
  • How to do better at leveraging your audience
  • Why not setting solid boundaries is a recipe for disaster
  • Why you need to slow down to grow your business sustainably
  • The importance of understanding your strengths and weaknesses
  • Things Jen considers before making investments
  • Network is more important than your net worth
  • Business debt is not as bad as it looks (if you do it right)
