Listen "What We Wish We Knew Before Launching a Service-Based Business"
Episode Synopsis
Just because you've got the skills doesn't mean you've got the systems. In this episode of the Rise + Refine Podcast, we're pulling back the curtain on everything we wish we'd known before launching a service-based business. From burning out by taking on too many clients, to not setting boundaries early enough, to waiting way too long to build an email list—we're sharing the hard lessons so you don't have to learn them the same way. We dive into the importance of creating meeting-free days, charging what you're worth, setting client caps, repurposing content strategically, and building products sooner rather than later. You'll also hear how under-promising and over-delivering can transform client relationships, and why consistent communication is one of the most underrated skills of entrepreneurship. Whether you're a brand-new service provider or a few years into building your business, this episode will give you the mindset shifts and tactical steps you need to run a business that's profitable, sustainable, and actually supports the life you want. Hit play, learn from our mistakes, and start building smarter from day one. 🧡 🔗 Follow Us: Rise & Refine Podcast Refined Marketing Instagram Refined Marketing Website Rise + Refine Podcast Sahara Embry on Instagram Micayla Bedoian on Instagram If you're ready to take your brand to the next level, we'd love to be part of that journey.
