Patrick and the Team at CASEMastermind.

team@casemastermind.co.uk

Let’s expound on those topics a little more…


  1. How to improve time management?
    The key is to be purposeful in how we spend our time more than being organised. 2 top tips:


    a. Fitting in the key value-adding activities in the diary first is a great way of making sure they happen like putting the rocks before the pebbles or the sand in a glass.


    b. Don’t let yourself be distracted by phone, emails, WhatsApp social media etc while you are focussing on those key activities. Don’t multitask, it is a waste of time. Dedicate times to catch up with communications and let your team and clients know when that is.




  2. What are the key numbers that businesses should keep an eye on?
    There are 2 types of key numbers. The upstream of lead numbers. They are used to drive behaviour or actions, for example, the number of prospect calls made in a week. The other type is downstream or lag numbers. They are numbers that drive motivation for example total new sales or the number of new customers in a week.
    It’s different for every business but there are some that are common to all businesses such as the number of new leads, number of new customers, cost of acquisition of a customer, gross margin %
    Some more specific ones are conversion rates at key stages of the sales funnel and the total amount of recurring income.




  3. How best to track and use numbers?
    Some numbers need to be tracked weekly and some monthly. They should always be compared to a target so they can be reviewed and corrective action applied if required. When making the comparison between the actual and the target, it is important to start with the mindset that not hitting the target is not acceptable. Any negative variance should be investigated and action taken. Either the target is wrong or the activities didn’t take place and should have. Having the discipline to look at the right numbers objectively is very powerful in keeping a business on track.

  • Why others allow imposter syndrome to creep in and allow it to impact the way that they feel about themselves.
  • Imposter syndrome and how it can allow you to doubt your skills and your talents, worrying that you will always be shown or exposed as a fraud.
  • Constant comparisons, how its not great for the mind and how we should learn to love and appreciate who we are as a person, nobody is the same, nobody does everything correct.
  • Imposter syndrome can cause fear, fear to step out and do something different , worrying about being constantly judged.

Kirsty wants to encourage as many people to see that these are mostly formed from beliefs, beliefs that others as well as ourselves have allowed to be instilled within us....

Beliefs are not FACTS , these can be changed, life is too short to worry about things that cannot be changed.

11S ALL NEW SHORTER VERSION! The Art of War in Business - Melvyn Manning - CASE Broadcast June 2021

YES! Melvyn has finally got his way and convinced us to edit down an episode and condense it.  

This has been wonderfully remastered by the great Gary Fernon Photographer and Videographer extraordinaire...  https://www.linkedin.com/in/gary-fernon/ Want to know the cold hard tactics of business? 

Melvyn Manning walks us through 6 great examples from Sun Tzu's book Atr of War. 

“In war, then, let your great object be victory, not lengthy campaigns.” – Sun Tzu. 1 – Capture Your Market Without Destroying It “Generally, in war the best policy is to take a state intact; to ruin it is inferior to this … For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.” – Sun Tzu. 2 – Avoid Strength and Attack Weakness “An army may be likened to water, for just as flowing water avoids the heights and hastens to the lowlands, so an army avoids strength and strikes weakness.” – Sun Tzu. 3 – Maximize the Power of Business Intelligence “Know the enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles you will never be in peril” – Sun Tzu. 4 – Use Speed to Overcome Your Competition “Speed is the essence of war. Take advantage of the enemy’s unpreparedness; travel by unexpected routes and strike him where has taken no precautions.” – Sun Tzu. 5 – Use Alliances and Strategic Control Points to Your Advantage “Therefore, those skilled in war bring the enemy to the field of battle and are not brought there by him.” – Sun Tzu. 6 – Develop your character as a leader to maximize the potential of your employees “When one treats people with benevolence, justice and righteousness, and reposes confidence in them, the army will be united in mind and all will be happy to serve their leaders.” – Sun Tzu.

9 Only a FOOL Journey's ALONE CASE Broadcast April 2021 Patrick Twitchett

9 Only a FOOL Journey's ALONE CASE Broadcast April 2021 Patrick Twitchett

Why would you journey alone?

Join PāT as he talks about how perilous the journey of business can be if you choose to walk that path ALONE.

He shares how being part of a Mastermind Group can not only change your thinking but your attitude too....

A true Jedi quickly learns that, “None of us is as smart as all of us.”

Far too often we spend our time working IN our business rather than ON our business.

IN being the operation, administration and running of the day to day of our business.

ON is where we strategically plan the future growth of our business and take steps to implement those goals and market, promote and push the direction where our business needs to go.

Ask yourself, "How much of the time am I spending IN my business rather than ON it?"

6 The SECRET of how to Get Things Done! CASE Broadcast January 2021 - David Goldring

Benjamin Franklin once said, “Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today.” He also said “You may delay, but time will not, and lost time is never found again”

This month’s CASE Broadcast explores:

  1. The positives and negatives of putting a task or action off to the next day
  2. How managing tasks effectively can lead to a positive outcome in both your work and personal lives.
  3. How being a protagonist, pessimist, optimist or realist can lead to positive decisions.

4 CASE Broadcast November 2020 - The Power of NO!

4 CASE Broadcast November 2020 - The Power of NO!

Welcome to the November 2020 CASE Broadcast. 


The POWER held in that short little word NO!


In this episode, Mel & Pat discuss the book of the month.

Discussion: The Book The Power of No.

“You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

Attributed to the poet John Lygate and President Abraham Lincoln, though some say Abe never actually said it?

People-pleasing can be one of our greatest weaknesses.

Know and understand why you are doing something, the real purpose. Note the focus of someone who wants to be a doctor when they are young, they understand why they are getting educated and focus on it.

We have a schedule, make it and guard it. Items on a list will never get done until they are planned into a schedule.

Fail to plan and you plan to fail.


Do not overload your schedule. Give yourself enough time, yet, only enough. Not too long either.


Be quick to make decisions and slow to change them.


Being "Busy" has become some sort of badge of honour to be worn with pride.

Perception - How is busy seen?

1. Rude - we are busy too

2. Struggling - poor management.

3. Too busy - we won't recommend you, we don't want to kill you... Also we don't want YOU to let US down.


Saying "bye, bye, bye, bye...." and "busy, busy, busy" - think what message are you sending?


Power over the phone. Switch it off when you are in a meeting. If you answer the phone during a conversation you devalue the person you were speaking to.


Technology is our creation and we are the master.

We should not become enslaved to our technology.

3 CASE Broadcast October 2020 - How BIG Are You Thinking?

3 CASE Broadcast October 2020 - How BIG Are You Thinking?

HOW BIG ARE YOU THINKING?

Welcome to the October 2020 Broadcast. 

CASE actually Connect And Support Entrepreneurs, did you spot the ACRONYM! We run Open and Closed Mastermind Groups and run this monthly Broadcast, unedited on video and audio, where we want to give you the listener some valuable input to help you on your journey.


Each month we will discuss the content of a personal development book, where the phrase, "Readers are Leaders" is very true. A poll revealed that the top CEO's (Chief Executive Officers) read on average 60 books a year or 5 per month. Melvyn has an opinion on that...


Watch out for Melvyn's new word too....


LISTEN OUT

LISTEN UP

LISTEN IN

 

In this episode Mel & Pat discuss the book of the month The Magic of Thinking BIG by David Shwartz

Discussion: Stepping outside the Flea Jar – The Flea circus story – How they are trained by having a lid on a jar. Once they hit this several times, you can take the lid off and they will jump no further.

 

Point 1 – Limiting beliefs

We restrict our own selves. 

Programming such as - “Don’t talk to strangers”

 

Point 2 – Stepping OUT of our Comfort Zone into our S T R E T C H Zone.

Pushing ourselves beyond.


Point 3 – Who can HELP YOU grow?

All the GURU’s out there. Sales funnel courses and people getting sucked in to SHORT CUTS and GET RICH QUICK SCHEMES. Paying hundreds or thousands of pounds for courses. Small business owners getting pulled in to spend a lot of money no wonder they go out of business.

 

What percentage of businesses fail UK?

20% of small businesses fail in their first year, 30% of small business fail in their second year, and 50% of small businesses fail after five years in business. Finally, 70% of small business owners fail in their 10th year in business.15 Apr 2020


A lot of the answers are on Google

 

Mix with people who are on the same JOURNEY.

2 CASE Broadcast September 2020 - Blue Ocean Marketing Strategy

2 CASE Broadcast September 2020 - Blue Ocean Marketing Strategy

In this episode, Mel & Pat discuss the book of the month Blue Ocean Strategy

“A blue ocean shift means moving yourself, your team and your organization from cutthroat markets to wide-open new markets in a way that your people own and drive the process.

To successfully shift from red oceans of bloody competition to blue oceans of new market space depends on three key components: having the right perspective, a clear roadmap with market-creating tools, and building people’s confidence at every level to drive and own the process.”

1. Having the right perspective.

2. A clear roadmap with market-creating tools.

3. Building people’s confidence at every level to drive and own the process.

Blue ocean strategy is based on over a decade-long study of more than 150 strategic moves spanning more than 30 industries over 100 years. The research of W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne focused on discovering the common factors that lead to the creation of blue oceans and the key differences that separate those winners from the mere survivors and those adrift in the red ocean.
