Ep. 107: Keeping Your Business Profitable in a Global Crisis With Susie Carder

Right now, a lot of us are wondering whether it’s possible to keep a business profitable even in the midst of a global crisis. Things feel scary and unknown, so I’ve invited Susie Carder to come be the desperately needed voice of calm reason.

And Susie definitely knows her stuff! She’s definitely seen ups and downs, but keeps coming through them better and stronger. As a child, she was one of many siblings in a household that didn’t have much money, so she was used to multiple-time hand-me-downs from Goodwill or her several older sisters. (In fact, one of her big motivators was to be able to buy herself brand-new underwear!) She then started her working life as a hairdresser trying to support her two little girls.

But Susie knew she wasn’t going to stay a low-paid hairdresser for long. Even in that role, she started making significantly more money than her colleagues, so she started teaching her methods as a giveback to her community. When people asked if she had a book, she wrote one! She figured out the importance of systematizing everything, and then people started asking to buy her system, too.

Everything was going so well for Susie… until 2007, when the market crashed, destroying 20 years of work overnight. From this experience, Susie learned that she had been heavily over-leveraged. She also went back to the foundation of what she knows how to do: generate cash.

Long (and amazing!) story short, Susie has built eight businesses, six of which reached multi-million dollar success. Her sweet spot is helping small businesses find, leverage, and scale the money to grow from $10,000 to $10 million. Her newest book, Power Your Profits, is a bulletproof start to finish plan for taking your business from startup mode to the multimillion dollar mark. Her core genius is the ability to simplify complicated issues by creating simple proven systems that are guaranteed to create dramatic growth for any company.

Listen in as she shares incredibly powerful insight into the importance of reshaping your relationship with money, and why we often don’t need more customers (but rather to be more effective with each customer). As she explains, fear leads you to believe that where you are is a safe place and going forward is a risk, but the truth is that you’re always at risk when you’re standing still. Don’t miss out on your destiny!
