Thanks to Mentor Plus training, I have a powerful way to make financial information meaningful for business people. I have tools that I know can make a difference for business owners. I have checklists, stories, and a process to follow. But I have been holding myself back.
I have been working in one industry for the last couple of years. I let my fear that I didn’t have all the answers or fully understand this industry hold me back. I didn’t apply the knowledge I have or use the tools that I have at my disposal. I talked myself out of sharing what I know.
I thought this industry was different. It was special. The owners know their business better than I do, how could I dare to talk to them about their results?
But after three years of listening and talking to owners, I have realized my mistake. They have the same business issues. They can still use help understanding their financial statements, making sense of the numbers, and setting team goals.
There is no industry that you can’t help with the tools you will learn from Mentor Plus. Business is business and numbers are numbers. Trust your business knowledge and experience and listen to your clients. You can make a difference.
You’ll have to tell that nagging little voice of self-doubt to go do something else. You’re going to be too busy making a difference for your clients to pay attention.

I like how you emphasize that you need to listen to the client first and then advise them. They will know their business better than you, but you have had conversations with many other businesses and know what works and what doesn’t and how to get positive results.
