Absolutely nothing.
Hi entrepreneurs, I’m Vicky Brown. And you’re in the right place if you want to engage your team, boost your business, and grow your leadership muscle.
Six figure entrepreneur; six figure business in x number of months or even weeks. I don’t know about you, but I hear these terms all the time – particularly online.
Become a six figure entrepreneur, practically overnight.
Now don’t get me wrong – I’m not knocking making six figures, or even having your business go to six figures in a relatively short period of time. But you have to know – that’s not really the norm. Truly growing to six figures takes dedication, effort, and time.
Take it from a seven figure business owner.
In fact, there are some perfectly good reasons it’s OK not to have hit six figures yet in your business.
You’re still in the early stages of building your business, and you’re all about creating a strong foundation that will set you up for long-term success. It’s important to get things right from the start, like setting up systems, building a solid team, and figuring out your business values. Taking the time now means you’ll have a strong base to grow on, instead of rushing to hit a revenue target without a solid foundation.
You’re taking the time to build a solid brand identity and establish yourself as a dependable business. You want to stand out from the crowd and build trust with your customers. That means defining what makes you unique, telling a captivating brand story, and nailing your visual style. By putting effort into your brand, you’ll be memorable, gain loyal customers, and set yourself up for future growth.
You’re all about leveling up your skills and becoming an expert in your field. You know that continuous learning and growth are essential for your business. Whether it’s staying up-to-date with industry trends, attending workshops, or seeking advice from mentors – you’re investing in yourself. When you become a pro, you can provide even more value to your customers, which can translate to higher revenue down the road.
You’re taking the time to really understand your market and your ideal customers. You want to create products or services that truly rock their world. So, you’re doing your homework—checking out the competition, digging into customer preferences, and listening to their feedback. You can use this information to tailor your offerings to their needs, stand out from the crowd, and make more money.
You’re being smart about your finances and taking the time to build a solid money foundation. You know that financial stability is key to long-term success. So, you’re watching your expenses, setting up good accounting practices, and creating a realistic budget. It may take time to reach that six-figure milestone, but you’re building a business that can keep growing steadily.
OK, those are some solid reasons you may not have hit 6 figures yet. But believe it or not, there are actually some benefits to taking it slow too.
Taking your time to build your business helps you establish credibility and a solid reputation in your industry. When you consistently deliver amazing products or services and treat your customers like gold, well, word gets around – and people start to trust and respect your brand. And that’s when you stand out from the competition and attract more customers. Sure, building credibility takes time, but it’s totally worth it because it leads to customer loyalty and more cash!
“… it’s like you’re on a hamster wheel. If you haven’t been growing your team, and your workload keeps piling up, it’s time to break free from that vicious cycle. Hiring new team members can inject fresh energy, bring in new skills…“
Avoiding costly mistakes. Slow and steady wins the race, right? When you take your time to grow, you can avoid costly mistakes that often come with rushing things. When you carefully plan, test, and analyze your strategies, you’re less likely to make impulsive decisions that could burn a hole in your pocket. Instead, you learn from any mis-steps along the way and save yourself loads of time and money in the long run. And that’s a smart move.
Finding the right team. Building your dream team takes time and patience. When you’re not in a hurry, you can take your time, and find those perfect team members who share your vision and are as committed to success as you are. It’s all about finding those talented folks who fit the company culture – like a glove. By investing the time to hire and train the right people, you’re building a dream team that will support your business and your vision.
Being more strategic. You’ve got the luxury of time to weigh your options, think things through, and consider the risks and rewards. It’s like playing a game of chess instead of a wild game of Twister. By being strategic, you make smarter decisions that align with your goals and keep you ahead of the game. You’re like a mastermind plotting your way to success. Take your time, plan it out, and the sit back and watch the business flourish.
Now, of course it’s not all sunshine and roses. There absolutely is such as thing as waiting too long to grow to 6 figures.

Maybe you’ve been hustling in your business for a good number of years, but your revenue is still below six figures. It’s like you’re stuck in a revenue rut. This is a clear sign that something needs to change. Time to reassess your business strategies, spice up your marketing game. Find new ways to bring in more cash. It’s all about making tweaks and improvements to hit that six-figure milestone.
Your products or services have been sitting untouched for ages, and they just don’t excite your customers anymore. It’s like they’re in a time warp while the world moves on. If you’re not keeping up with the latest trends and meeting the evolving needs of your customers, you’re missing out. It’s time to breathe new life into your offerings, inject some fresh ideas, and show your customers that you’re still the leader in your space.
Look around. Are your competitors zooming past you, growing like crazy, and gobbling up a bigger piece of the market pie. It’s like they’re on steroids while you’re chilling in the slow lane? That’s a clear sign that you can’t afford to wait any longer. Take a good hard look at what your competitors are doing, learn from their success, and find your own unique way to make waves. It’s probably time to step up your game.
Your business growth has hit a wall, and finding new customers feels like searching for a needle in a haystack. It’s frustrating, I know. If you’re struggling to attract fresh faces and expand your customer base, it’s a wake-up call. It’s time to revamp your marketing strategies, try new channels, and get your business in front of the right people. Don’t sit back and wait for customers to magically appear—go out there and make it happen.
Your team is stuck in a time loop – it’s like you’re on a hamster wheel. If you haven’t been growing your team, and your workload keeps piling up, it’s time to break free from that vicious cycle. Hiring new team members can inject fresh energy, bring in new skills, and increase your business’s capacity to take on more work. It’s all about building a team that can support your growth ambitions.
So, don’t waste time overthinking why your business is where it is. Take a good, clear eyed look; figure out if there are solid reasons for your current position, and if they make sense – well then, steady on! But if you see that you’re waiting too long to kick on the afterburners, then make a plan, and go for it!
