Common Mistakes Business Owners Make

• Many people are poverty thinkers, not prosperity thinkers. 
• Poverty thinkers perceive the glass as half-empty.
• In contrast, prosperity thinkers would see the glass as half-full. Prosperity thinkers know that they should be investing.
• The biggest mistake business owners can make is that they’re not investing enough in their marketing. 
• You should consider investing 5-15% of your sales in marketing. 

Advice on Marketing

• Justin emphasizes the value of knowing how your business model works, especially for seasoned owners.
• Additionally, you have to know your marketing dynamics—what you are selling and their prices.
• Lastly, figure out your numbers and find out if marketing a specific way is worth it or not.

Lessons from Justin’s Experiences

• If you’re not a numbers person, look for someone who can help you make sense of your numbers. You need to track them so you can grow them. 
• Once you know what your goals are, it’s easier to make financial decisions. 
• It’s okay to take small and medium-sized risks consistently.
• Justin also learned that people buy what they want and not what they need.
• He learned that he could make a difference in people’s lives by educating them about their finances. By doing so, Justin was also making money. 

On Making Money Work for You

• Justin learned prosperity thinking. That is, he can create the kind of life he wants for himself. 
• You have to believe that down the road; you will succeed. 
• In money and in running a business, you have to believe that things will work out. 
• It’s okay to fail. What you need to do is be conscious of what you’re thinking and doing. 
• You need to continue working on yourself. Find out what you don’t know and do the work to learn it. 

How Can Business Owners Get Started?

• Focus on how your financial advisor leads you and what they ask about you. 
• They need to ask questions to get to know you. It’s only through knowing you and what you value that financial advisors can give the right advice.  
• The financial advisor needs to make you feel safe and comfortable enough to discuss your financial issues.  

What Business Owners Should Prioritize

• Firstly, you should observe if your business is generating enough money.
• A lot of times, people are not aware of the opportunities to create more profit.
• Secondly, Justin explains the importance of automation.
• Automating your money can save you from inconveniences, such as forgetting to pay bills or saving cash.
• For example, have separate accounts for taxes and for retirement. If you’re saving up for a house, have another account for that as well.

• Justin believes that you have to save and spend. 
• For him, the word ‘budget’ is too restrictive.
• People should be able to do the things they enjoy to be happy.
• Along the way, you just need to create a plan to save your money and automate your savings and spending.

5 Powerful Quotes

“I think that you got to get out of your own way. And you have to be really—you have to own who you are and take action.” 

“So the biggest mistake that I think that business owners make is they're not investing enough in marketing in their business because they think that investment is really an expense.”

“We begin to spend money, and invest money, and just do stuff with our money. [However,] we need to know what the money is for, and we need to know what our values are.  And if we know those two things, we’ll be congruent. And it will be so much easier to make financial decisions.”

“You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So, you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.”

“I believe that the word ‘budget’ is too restrictive. And I want people to go out and buy the cup of coffee, get the latte, get the shoes, take a vacation, do that stuff because you're going to be happy, just create a plan to save along the way.”
