Behind The Scenes Writing: The Feel Good Business Model Book
For quite a few years now, we have been running and growing businesses.
We started all of these businesses from scratch and have grown over time.
If you had told us 15 years ago that we would be running our own businesses, working three days a week, making as much money as we wanted, helping people, and doing work we loved…. we would have thought you were crazy.
But here we are, and it feels like a dream come true.
As we grew our consulting and agency practices, we started strategically building boundaries and structure around what we did to ensure that we always had freedom and flexibility as we grew.
Our first goal was to raise enough money to cover all expenses and pay ourselves.
Our next goal was to make enough so that we could start our own 401k and contribute to our retirement.
Our next goal was to start making recurring revenue without involving much of our time.
Then, our goal was to keep this growing.
With determination and gratitude, we have done so every year.We have shaped these businesses and grown them into businesses that honestly feel good to run.
Our small and mighty team is amazing, and I’m so grateful every day for the ability to do what we do.
We are so excited to share this framework in our new book (coming out on March 26th!), The Feel Good Business Model, if you’d like to join the waitlist, click here: https://www.thetimetogrow.com/FeelGoodBusiness

How To Always Remain On Top In The Real Estate Game
As a native of Philadelphia, I am proud to be the Founder and CEO of Maria Quattrone and Associates RE/MAX @ HOME and Motto Mortgage Expert Solutions. My career in real estate, extending nearly two decades, has established me as a significant figure in the industry. My relentless dedication and expertise in sales and marketing have highlighted my role in shaping Philadelphia's real estate sector, and this has brought recognition and accolades from industry insiders and clients alike.
Driven by an inherent entrepreneurial spirit and a deep passion for real estate, I founded Maria Quattrone & Associates in 2005, transitioning from my earlier role as an account executive in Philadelphia Radio Sales. My hand-picked team of seasoned professionals has transformed client service, building enduring relationships and delivering outstanding results for sellers through innovative marketing strategies. I have also provided buyers with transformative experiences, leveraging my extensive industry knowledge and market-specific insights.
Aware of the intense competition in the real estate market, I developed the 'Rise in Real Estate' training program to empower aspiring professionals with the essential skills needed to excel in their careers. This program reflects my commitment to dispelling myths about the industry and establishing professional standards and practices for my team and all agents seeking guidance. Beyond my contributions to real estate, I also host the popular podcast, "Be the Solution," which has gained national attention and is available on major platforms like Apple, Spotify, and Pandora. Through over 137 interviews, my podcast offers motivation and practical advice, inspiring listeners to become agents of positive change in their personal and professional lives.
Throughout my nearly two-decade career, I have been recognized as one of the top sellers in the Philadelphia Metro Market, leading Maria Quattrone and Associates at RE/MAX @ HOME to unprecedented success. Having sold over 3,400 properties, my unwavering dedication and exceptional leadership skills have been crucial in achieving these accomplishments. The success of Maria Quattrone & Associates stands as a testament to my outstanding leadership and steadfast commitment.

As a seasoned businesswoman, mom, podcast host, and advocate for living your best life, Amanda Cahill is no stranger to determining what she wants and going after it with full force.
Over a decade, Amanda quickly climbed the corporate ladder and created a name for herself in her respective industry. From the outside looking in it seemed as though she had it all: a great career, strong relationships, and an enthusiasm that radiated in all she did…but something was missing.
In 2017, she was thrown into the world of self-development and even though everything seemed “perfect”, Amanda started to feel as though there was more to life than following the same path as those before her.
When others around her started to question her desire for more, her desire for something different, Amanda set out to find like-minded women who were also feeling stuck, unfulfilled, and unsure of what the next step in life could be.
Amanda soon realized women were hungry to connect, collaborate, and support each other as they navigate through uncertainty and move forward toward their dreams. She has since mentored and coached thousands of women to help them create a life they are proud of and want to live in every day.
