Are you worried that no one will pay for your service after you launch your business? I know exactly how you feel. I’ve had my share of rejection, but I have good news for you. In today’s episode, I’ll show you 4 simple ways to validate your service-based business idea before you launch your business. According to research, the fear of failure is one of the reasons why people never start their businesses. Knowing if an idea will fly before launching helps reduce the fear that leads to inaction. Don't let fear cause you to validate your business idea forever and never launch. The goal of validating your business is to find the smallest meaningful evidence that you have a viable business. One that solves a real problem and prospective customers are willing to pay for it. Once you get this evidence, it's time to launch. I pray this episode transforms your life.

I’m excited to explore step 5 which is the letter “T” in my F.I.R.S.T. step method. My "F.I.R.S.T." step method is an acronym I created to help you move from idea to starting a business. The letter “T” in my F.I.R.S.T. step method is “Take The Leap”. Let's do a quick recap of steps 1, 2, and step 3. Step 1: “F” - Find Clarity Step 2: “I” - Ideate with your “good example” Step 3: “R” - Research and Review” Step 4: “S” - Set Reasonable Boundaries Step 5: “T” - Take The Leap The thought of starting a business always scared me. I had a million unanswered questions. I felt I wasn't qualified. I felt entrepreneurship was for extroverts and not introverts like me. I was also afraid of being responsible for other people's income. But deep inside my heart, I knew I was called to be an entrepreneur. You’ll always be afraid to take the leap to start your service-based business. But you can either let the fear stop you or you can do what I did - Feel the fear and do it anyway. The path to starting a business might feel terrifying today, but if you persist it will become your path to direct impact, freedom of creative expression, time/schedule flexibility, and ownership of your own work.

I tried to get a sense of purpose and fulfillment from my corporate job. Don’t get me wrong, there’s not wrong with building a corporate career. The problem was I believed my fulfillment could only come from working in corporate America. I made building a corporate career my idol. The harder I tried to build a career, the more rejection and frustration I experienced. Corporate America told me I wasn’t good enough. My pursuit for fulfillment the world’s way stole my confidence, my joy, and my peace. I finally realized that if I was going to find peace and freedom and personal fulfillment, I needed to quit insisting on my way and surrender to God’s way. I ditched my limiting beliefs, embraced God’s path for me, created a plan, built systems, and started my business. A path that seemed terrifying to me, became my path to freedom, personal growth, and fulfillment. I'm excited to share it with you!
