I had the privilege of attending the UNRESTRICTED Conference hosted by Dr. Latanya Moore last weekend in Dallas, TX. My biggest takeaway was I cannot neglect my prayer life or time spent in God’s presence. The work done internally through prayer is what produces the results we seek externally. My second crucial takeaway was the importance of constantly coming into agreement with God’s word. As Kingdom Entrepreneurs, it’s essential to agree with God’s word through prayer.

In today’s episode, I share 3 scriptures you need to pray regularly as a Kingdom Entrepreneur to ensure your business aligns with God's agenda.

When you agree with God’s word in prayer, you trigger a divine process to fulfill that word.

During this conversation, I discuss:

1. Isaiah 6:10, Matthew 13:15
2. Ephesians 3:16
3. Proverbs 19:21

Key Takeaways and Lessons:

• Guard against spiritual blindness through prayer
• Draw strength from God’s unlimited resources
• Surrender your plans to God’s purpose

Tune in to learn how these scriptures can transform your business and spiritual life.

Hey Friend!

Are you struggling to figure out what kind of offer to create for your service-based business? In today's episode, I dive deep into the 3 types of offers you can create to serve your potential customers.

During the conversation, I discuss:

• The definition of an "offer" and why it's important for your business
• The 3 main types of offers: core product offers, premium value offers, and recurring value offers
• Examples and explanations of each type of offer
• Tips on how to choose the right offer to start with for your business

Here are some key takeaways and lessons from the episode:

• A core product offer is a low-to-mid-ticket digital product like an online course or ebook that you can sell repeatedly with minimal involvement
• A premium value offer is a high-ticket (over $1000) service like 1-on-1 coaching, VIP days, or done-for-you services that require more of your time and resources
• A recurring value offer is a subscription, membership, or payment plan that provides ongoing revenue for your business
• The best offer to start with depends on your unique business, experience, and goals - I'm happy to help you figure that out!
