Uncomplicated

Hi, I'm Sarah Leather, and in today’s episode, I’m excited to share the three key ingredients you need to create a simple and highly abundant business. Before diving into these, it’s essential to first examine your business model. Make sure it aligns with how you want to live and work right now—not how you did five or ten years ago.   Key Takeaways: A Clear and Aligned Offer: Your offer should match how you want to deliver your services. I’ve found success with a single core offer, which I scaled from one-on-one sessions to a three-month program, and later, group programs and masterminds. This approach not only doubled my income but also gave me more space and energy for my clients. Simple Marketing and Messaging: Focus on one lead platform for your marketing efforts and a secondary platform outside social media, such as a blog, podcast, or YouTube channel. Clear messaging is vital—speak directly to your dream client’s micro-problems, and use relatable, tangible examples that resonate with them. A Simple System to Sell: Having a step-by-step process for making offers is crucial. Whether it's through social media, email lists, or masterclasses, ensure you're inviting your audience to take the next steps with you regularly. Remember, selling is serving, and it helps more people when done authentically and wholeheartedly.   If you’d like help implementing these steps or refining your approach, feel free to book a 15-minute chat with me. I’d love to hear where you’re at and how I can support you in achieving your business goals.   Links & Resources: Book a 15-minute chat with Sarah Follow me on Instagram: @the_sarah_leather   Thanks for listening! I’ll be back soon with more insights. Lots of love, Sarah x  

Current trends in online business coaching @ 0:01 Sarah explores the latest developments in the online coaching industry, highlighting the challenges faced by larger coaching businesses. She explains how smaller, personalised one-on-one and small group coaching setups have proven more resilient, thanks to stronger foundations and a client-centred approach.   Importance of resilience and adaptability @ 1:29 Building inner resilience and adaptability is key to navigating business challenges. Sarah shares actionable insights on how to pivot your business model, diversify income streams, and bounce back from setbacks without losing momentum.   Shift towards lower-priced offers @ 11:05 Sarah discusses the rising popularity of affordable "micro" offers and courses, which serve as an accessible entry point for new clients. She explains how these smaller offerings can build trust and lead to more substantial investments in the long term.   Importance of trust and transparency @ 19:02 The coaching industry has seen a decline in trust due to unmet expectations with high-ticket offers. Sarah stresses the importance of transparency, honesty, and consistently delivering value to rebuild client confidence.   Evolving marketing and sales tactics @ 22:16 There’s a noticeable shift away from aggressive "bro marketing" methods. Sarah highlights the growing preference for relationship-focused marketing strategies and more personalised, accessible coaching experiences.   Advice for business owners @ 30:17 In her closing remarks, Sarah encourages business owners to prioritise mindset shifts, stay true to their unique identity, and seek the right support. She also shares the importance of maintaining strong client retention strategies and continually improving, regardless of external market trends.   To create your micro-offer, see Simple Micro Method here: https://bit.ly/SimpleMicroMethod   To see the ways you can work with me this year, go here: https://thesarahleather.com/work-with-me/

I'm thrilled to have my special guest Caitlin Bacher in this episode.      Caitlin specialises in growing an online course business without launching. If you're done with the stressful launch rollercoaster you are going to love this. This topic is so close to my heart as many of my clients have hired me to help them sell their offers after burnout from repeated launching.      As the CEO of Scale with Success®, Caitlin Bacher is dedicated to teaching coaches and course creators how to transform their online course into a 7-figure business - without launching. Caitlin believes there’s more than one right way to build a business, and that if launching isn’t your cup of tea, you don’t have to do it.      She learned this lesson the hard way; for her, launches meant inconsistent revenue, sleepless nights, and stress. After Caitlin pivoted from launching to selling, she unlocked consistent revenue, scaled, and made her first million in only nine months. She now teaches this method to course creators all over the world.      Connect with Caitlin: https://www.facebook.com/caitlinbacher/  

In this episode, I dive into the power of defining your "one simple thing" and how it can transform the way you approach your business. Here’s what you can expect:   Defining Your "One Simple Thing" @ 0:42 I break down why it’s so important to have clarity on your “one simple thing”—the core of what you do, who you help, and the problem you solve. This clarity sets the foundation for your marketing, messaging, sales, and all your offerings.   Simplicity and Abundance @ 1:32 Here, I talk about the relationship between simplicity and abundance in business. When we overcomplicate things, it makes our work harder. But when we stay focused on our “one simple thing,” everything flows more easily.   Overcoming Obstacles to Clarity @ 3:08 I address one of the biggest challenges I see for women in business—not visibility or imposter syndrome, but a lack of clarity on their "one simple thing." Once you have this, taking action becomes so much easier.   Putting It into Practice @ 3:46 I share a personal story of how knowing my "one simple thing" helped me get through my marketing and sales activities quickly, even on a day I was feeling stuck.   Offering to Help Define Your "One Simple Thing" @ 6:52 If you’re struggling to define your "one simple thing," I’m here to help. This is a core part of the work I do with my high-paying clients, and I know how crucial it is for success in any business.For anyone ready to bring more simplicity, clarity, and focus into their work, tune in to this episode to start defining your "one simple thing."

This episode discusses the importance of simplicity and constraint in messaging and offers for attracting higher-paying dream clients.   Key Takeaways: Constraining your messaging and offers to speak directly to your ideal client is key to attracting higher-paying clients Simplify by focusing on 1 core problem/desire and tailoring content/offers to that specific audience Celebrate small wins along the way instead of getting discouraged An upcoming "Simplified Messaging Method" masterclass will provide frameworks for dialing in messaging   Topics:   The Power of Constraint Constraining messaging and offers allows you to speak potently to your dream clients' core desires Trying to appeal to too broad an audience dilutes your messaging and confuses prospects Constraint gives freedom - it focuses your efforts on what truly moves the needle   Simplifying Offers Having too many offers is overwhelming for prospects Streamline to just a few complementary offers tailored to your ideal client at different stages Low-ticket, high-value offers can warm prospects up for higher-end programs   Celebrating Small Wins Don't get discouraged if results aren't immediate - celebrate every small win Reframe "only 1 sale" thinking to an abundance mindset The space/freedom created by simplifying is to be embraced, not filled   Upcoming Masterclass A "Simplified Messaging Method" masterclass is being created Will provide frameworks for dialing in potent messaging to your dream clients See it as an opportunity, not something "needed" to improve results   Next Steps: Check out the upcoming "Simplified Messaging Method" masterclass at https://thesarahleather.com/instant/

Welcome to the very first episode of Uncomplicated!!! Over the last couple of years, my work has become about 1 thing: Simplicity. I help women to radically simplify their businesses and lives. This brings them more clients, more money, and more time for them. In this episode, I dive into my favourite topic, sales. I speak about how selling has changed over the years and what a difference it’s made to simplify the way I sell and the way I teach my clients to ‘sell without selling’. If you’re done with the complicated business strategies and ready for multiple 6 figures in 3 days a week, you are going to love this episode. I’d love to hear your thoughts. The best way to share them is with a podcast review. I read every single one. Or you can pop me an email at admin@thesarahleather.com and I promise to personally read it. Until next time, big uncomplicated love to you!

It is so important to know what simple tasks you need to do each day in your business. But it's so easy to get caught up in the 'busy work' of running your business and working with clients. And for yet another day to go by with no marketing done. What if all of your marketing could be done first thing in 30 minutes? What if these became 'non-negotiables'? In this episode, I tell you what I do as my daily non-negotiables. We do these 'Daily Non-Negotiables' regularly in my beautiful women's mentoring program called WOW Academy.
