Speaker:

Let me guess.

Speaker:

You've had one of those months, invoices went

Speaker:

out, the clients were happy, and then suddenly silence.

Speaker:

You check your bank account.

Speaker:

It's not panic exactly, but it's close that my friend

Speaker:

is the feast and famine cycle and it's exhausting.

Speaker:

If you've ever thought, I just wanna know the money's

Speaker:

coming in consistently, then today's episode is going to

Speaker:

make you breathe a little easier because we are talking

Speaker:

today about recurring revenue what it is, it changes

Speaker:

everything, and how to create

Speaker:

it in your business

Speaker:

without working harder.

Speaker:

One of my favorite topics, this is.

Speaker:

Building a business with stable, predictable income.

Speaker:

And we are going to unpack three big ideas, the power

Speaker:

of recurring revenue, how to build memberships or

Speaker:

retainers that actually make money, and how to sell your

Speaker:

offers to organisations, not just individuals.

Speaker:

So if you are ready to move from chaos to

Speaker:

consistency, grab your cup.

Speaker:

' cause this one's full of gold.

Speaker:

I wanna talk about the power of recurring revenue.

Speaker:

Revenue that repeats is revenue, that

Speaker:

releases pressure.

Speaker:

When I first started coaching my business was

Speaker:

all one-off projects.

Speaker:

Great money, but super inconsistent.

Speaker:

One month I'd be flying.

Speaker:

The next would be wondering where the next

Speaker:

client was coming from.

Speaker:

He did my head in.

Speaker:

Then I built thriving women.

Speaker:

A program with a membership model.

Speaker:

monthly recurring revenue suddenly everything changed.

Speaker:

could plan, could hire, I could breathe.

Speaker:

That's what recurring revenue does.

Speaker:

It gives you stability and headspace.

Speaker:

It lets you think long term instead of

Speaker:

living month to month.

Speaker:

I wanna talk about Marissa.

Speaker:

Marissa has been selling individual leadership courses,

Speaker:

but each launch felt like starting from scratch.

Speaker:

So we got together and we crunched the numbers.

Speaker:

We realized if she sold a $49 a month membership to

Speaker:

organisations, she only needed to sell 307 members

Speaker:

to hit 15 grand per month.

Speaker:

But if she did that in organizational land where

Speaker:

there was 20 to 30 to 50 women in leadership,

Speaker:

a much easier sell.

Speaker:

It was not a dream.

Speaker:

It was a strategy.

Speaker:

Here's what I want you to do.

Speaker:

I want you to take your current income goal

Speaker:

and ask yourself, "What would it look like

Speaker:

if 80% of this came in on repeat?" I want you to think

Speaker:

about retainers, memberships, subscriptions, anything

Speaker:

that keeps cash flowing without you starting from

Speaker:

zero every single month.

Speaker:

Because that's when you stop chasing stales and

Speaker:

start building security.

Speaker:

If you've been listening to this podcast for

Speaker:

quite some time, you'll know that financial

Speaker:

security is my main aim.

Speaker:

I want women to make money so that they feel

Speaker:

financially secure.

Speaker:

That's the first thing.

Speaker:

is awesome.

Speaker:

Profit is even better

Speaker:

so you can reinvest in your business.

Speaker:

I wanna talk to you about designing offers

Speaker:

that create stability.

Speaker:

See, recurring revenue isn't about slapping a subscription

Speaker:

on something that doesn't fit.

Speaker:

It's about designing offers that deliver ongoing value.

Speaker:

One of One of my clients, she runs an outsourcing agency,

Speaker:

and she used to work on project by project contracts,

Speaker:

great for short bursts, but exhausting to manage.

Speaker:

And together we turned her packages into monthly

Speaker:

retainers with defined deliverables and check-ins.

Speaker:

It was outcome focused and her clients loved it.

Speaker:

They got consistent support.

Speaker:

She got predictable cash flow and within three months

Speaker:

she doubled her income and halved her stress.

Speaker:

That's the power of a well-structured offer.

Speaker:

I wanna put a caveat in here.

Speaker:

You still need to deliver.

Speaker:

Well, not enough to have a bright, shiny offer and

Speaker:

charge X amount of money without delivering it.

Speaker:

Well, You have to deliver it well.

Speaker:

So here's the question that I've got for you.

Speaker:

The question you need to ask yourself is, where do

Speaker:

my clients need consistency and how can I build that

Speaker:

into my business model?

Speaker:

Could it be a monthly support package?

Speaker:

Could it be a quarterly mastermind?

Speaker:

Is it an ongoing membership?

Speaker:

Remember, recurring revenue isn't just good for you, it's

Speaker:

also good for your clients.

Speaker:

It creates trust, rhythm, and long term results.

Speaker:

I wanna talk about selling to organisations,

Speaker:

not just individuals.

Speaker:

So if we were gonna dial this up a notch, and back

Speaker:

to Marissa who went, okay, here's what I can do for

Speaker:

individuals and here's what I can do in organisations.

Speaker:

Sometimes recurring revenue, grows faster when you

Speaker:

sell to organisations kind of makes sense, right?

Speaker:

Individuals often buy once.

Speaker:

They're kind of one and done.

Speaker:

Businesses buy repeatedly.

Speaker:

There is employee turnover.

Speaker:

they need different levels of offers for different

Speaker:

levels in the organization.

Speaker:

Once you get in one organization, you

Speaker:

get recommended for other organisations.

Speaker:

And Marissa and I talked about her shifting her focus

Speaker:

from these individual women, to corporate HR teams.

Speaker:

So instead of chasing 500 solo signups, could sell

Speaker:

10 corporate memberships.

Speaker:

which each bring in 50 women.

Speaker:

It's a totally different game.

Speaker:

It is a level up, I'm not going to lie to you.

Speaker:

It's not about marketing harder in that it's actually

Speaker:

about marketing smarter.

Speaker:

It's about being a bit more strategic because you're

Speaker:

selling one contract, not 50 conversations,

Speaker:

The stakes can be higher.

Speaker:

If you are considering selling to organisations or

Speaker:

corporates, I want you to do this as the next step.

Speaker:

Identify three to five organisations that align

Speaker:

with your mission, your purpose, your target market,

Speaker:

and then ask, what's one way I could help their

Speaker:

team to perform better, communicate better, lead

Speaker:

better, whatever the thing is.

Speaker:

Then simply reach out with your idea.

Speaker:

You are not pitching a product, you're offering

Speaker:

a solution, and you're also not pitching.

Speaker:

You're building relationships.

Speaker:

And once they're in, that recurring revenue plays out

Speaker:

the revenue plays to scale.

Speaker:

So let's pull this all together.

Speaker:

Recurring revenue gives you freedom.

Speaker:

It's the antidote to burnout.

Speaker:

Smart offers build sustainability.

Speaker:

Think long-term relationships, not one-time wins.

Speaker:

Corporate clients multiply your impact.

Speaker:

One sale can create dozens of seats at your table.

Speaker:

When you design your business for consistent

Speaker:

income, you stop reacting and you start leading.

Speaker:

And that's when you really become the

Speaker:

CEO of your business.

Speaker:

You're calm, confident, and in control.

Speaker:

And isn't that what we all want?

Speaker:

Right now you might be interested in creating

Speaker:

recurring revenue.

Speaker:

You've just listened to this and thought it's amazing.

Speaker:

Trust me, it is amazing.

Speaker:

But how do you actually get it done?

Speaker:

it's great to have a dream.

Speaker:

But you gotta kind have a plan.

Speaker:

This is where I come in.

Speaker:

We can look at your business, we can look at the current

Speaker:

operations, your current business model, and we can

Speaker:

shift it and shape it help you have the freedom and

Speaker:

stability in your business.
