Kalia is off in Curaçao on a trip with 60 women, leaving me to fend for myself in true bachelor style.

So naturally, I went wild.

On Sunday, I did yoga (achieving dangerous levels of flexibility), went to church, took a glorious nap, and even caught up on some work.

And in a true act of rebellion, I fired up the grill and cooked myself a big, fat, juicy ribeye instead of a polite little filet. Because when left to my own devices, I live on the edge.

But here’s the thing…

Many professionals think they’re making bold moves in their business, but they’re just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

They try a new marketing strategy…

Tweak their pricing…

Test a different email subject line…

But those aren’t the real problems.

The real issue?

They’re not asking the right questions to diagnose the real roadblocks.

If you’re not consistently converting leads into appointments with high-quality prospects ready to buy, your issue is probably not lead generation.

Here’s an actionable tip to help you solve the right problem:

Next time you look at your marketing, ask yourself:

Are my efforts bringing in prospects who actually want to work with me and can afford my fees?

If the answer is no, then tweaking your follow-up, fine-tuning your message, or restructuring your offer might be the answer—but throwing more traffic at the problem isn’t.

If you fix the wrong thing, you’ll keep working harder without getting better results.

And that’s wilder than my bachelor week could ever get.

Kick butt, make mucho DEEnero!
