If you’ve ever said, “I want a six-figure business, but I don’t know where to start,” this is where the magic begins.

PART 1: Why You Need a Real Plan (Not a Vague Idea) to Build a Six-Figure Business

Let’s dig in.

If you want a six-figure business — or a consistent business — or a calm business — the first step is clarity.

Not manifesting alone.
Not wishing alone.
Not winging it every month.

You need an actual, strategic plan.

Most women who feel “stuck” don’t have a business problem — they have a clarity problem.

So let’s solve that.


STEP 1: Know Exactly Who You’re Talking To

Ask yourself:

👉 Who do I need to talk to in order to reach the right clients?
👉 Who is my ideal audience?
👉 Who is the person who is most likely to buy my product or service?

This is your ideal client avatar (ICA) — and yes, you need one.
Inside the Membership and the Collective, we spend a LOT of time here, because clarity here changes everything.

Think about their:

  • Age
  • Lifestyle
  • Interests
  • Pain points
  • Goals
  • What they’re Googling
  • What they’re complaining about
  • What they wish existed

If you are your own ideal client from a few years ago?
Even better.
Your content becomes real, relatable, and ridiculously effective.


STEP 2: Know Your Numbers (This Is the Six-Figure Secret!)

You cannot hit a goal you’ve never defined.

So let’s walk through the numbers every business owner needs to know:

1. How much money do you want to make this month?

Let’s say your goal is:
👉 $2,000 in sales

2. What is your average order size?

If you don’t know, go calculate it!

Let’s say it’s:
👉 $40 per order

3. How many customers do you need?

$2,000 ÷ $40 = 50 orders

Boom.
Now you have a real target.

4. Break it down daily or weekly

50 orders =
👉 13 orders per week
👉 1–2 orders per day

That’s achievable.
And when you see what’s needed numerically, it removes the mystery and the panic.


STEP 3: Front-Load Your Month (My Signature Strategy!)

One of my favorite strategies — and something I teach inside the Collective — is front-loading your business.

This means:

✨ Book parties early
✨ Push sales early
✨ Book client calls early
✨ Do outreach early
✨ Promote early

Why?

Because when you hit your goals at the beginning of the month…

➡ everything else becomes EXTRA
➡ your energy feels better
➡ you don’t spend the last week in panic mode
➡ you have more joy and spaciousness
➡ your confidence skyrockets

Front-load your month and your business changes.


STEP 4: Brain Dump ALL the Ways You Can Get in Front of People

If you need 50 orders, you probably need at least 200 exposures.

So…
👉 How are you going to get in front of new people?

Make a list:

  • Live weekly show
  • Vendor events
  • Parties (if you’re in DS/MLM)
  • Pop-up events at coffee shops or boutiques
  • Email list growth
  • Welcome email sequences
  • Pinterest
  • Instagram Reels
  • Collaborations
  • Female Feature Fridays
  • Shoutouts
  • Lives with other creators
  • Referral incentives
  • 5-day challenges
  • Free trainings
  • Podcast guesting

There are so many possibilities.

Don’t limit yourself — BRAIN DUMP.


STEP 5: Pick ONE Strategy to Focus On

Here’s the mistake most women make:

❌ They try 20 things halfway
…instead of 1 thing ALL the way.

Your job?

👉 Pick ONE strategy
👉 Double down
👉 Give it attention
👉 Let your focus direct your energy
👉 Let your energy direct your results

WHERE YOUR FOCUS GOES, YOUR ENERGY FLOWS.
And your outcomes grow.

So if your one strategy is…
✨ A weekly live show
✨ A collab-a-thon month
✨ Consistent email marketing
✨ Hosting a party
✨ Running a workshop

Commit to it.
Work the plan.

Magic happens when you stay the course long enough for momentum to kick in.


STEP 6: Track Your Progress Like a CEO

CEOs know their numbers.

And if you want a six-figure business, you have to act like one.

Tracking can look like:

  • A thermometer graphic
  • A monthly tracker
  • A spreadsheet
  • A notebook
  • A whiteboard
  • A sticky note wall
  • A digital dashboard

Just START.

Track:

  • Total sales
  • New clients
  • Repeat clients
  • Average order
  • Conversions
  • Email opens
  • Engagement
  • Parties, events, or calls booked

Because when you track, you see patterns.
And when you see patterns, you make decisions like a true CEO.



Final Thoughts

Your business will grow when YOU take ownership of:

✔ Your plan
✔ Your numbers
✔ Your actions
✔ Your focus
✔ Your strategy
