  You're a Spicy Jalapeno Margarita

  You grab life...and your business...by the horns! You have a fiery personality and you aren’t shy about meeting new people, marketing yourself or taking risks. You jumped into your business head first and learned how to swim as soon as you hit the water. Strengths:You never back down from a challenge. Gosh darn it, you’re going to figure out how to make it work or you’ll go down in a blaze of glory! You are not motivated by fear. You are very sure of yourself and know your own capabilities. Others look up to you because you are a trailblazer who doesn’t let obstacles get in your way. You have no problem getting others to jump onto your bandwagon because they are drawn to your spunk and tenacity. Weaknesses:Your fiery approach to business may leave you burnt out or, worse yet, leave important details to fall through the cracks. Those clients that signed on because they couldn’t NOT say yes to you, you struggle serving them in the long run. Once the challenge is gone for you, you get bored. Although you have no problem getting people to sign on to your cause, they may not feel well served once that initial excitement has passed. What to do about it:As boring as it may seem to you, take a little time to plan for the future. You love your business and what you do, but take the steps to avoid burnout further down the road. Are there things you could automate? Or a team member you could delegate some of the things that don’t interest you? Taking these steps will set you up for success in the long run and free you up to focus on what you do best...setting the world on fire! In a good way, of course!

  You are the literal life of the party! People are drawn to you because of your bubbly personality and your inclusive nature. You make people feel welcomed and they simply enjoy being around you. Your clients can’t stop talking about the experience they had with you because it was just so darn fun! It didn’t feel like work at all! Strengths: You draw people in with your charm and personality. Working with you feels like a party! You turn your clients into raving fans and they cannot stop telling their friends about you! Weaknesses: Because of your sparkling and outgoing personality, you sometimes attract clients that, on a deeper level, are not the best fit for you and your business...and you don't’ find that out until it’s too late. You sometimes feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of people who want to work with you and you feel like you are trying to be everything to everyone. It’s exhausting. What to do about it: Focus on creating an ideal client profile. Where does she live? What does she do for a living? What brands is she loyal to? Once you have a clear picture of your ideal client, you can hone in your marketing message so that you are speaking just to her and not screaming to the masses.

  Maple Syrup Old Fashioned

  You are the loyal friend who always comes through in a clutch. You have deep relationships, but maybe not too many of them. You always strive for quality over quantity. You play the long game in business and in your personal life. Strengths: Your friends, family and clients can always count on you. You are steadfast and loyal. They always know exactly what they are going to get and you always pull through...even in a crisis...because you keep your wits about you at all times. You think through every possible scenario before taking action and your end result is almost always dependable. Weaknesses: You are slow to act and are sometimes overly cautious. Fear of the unknown keeps your feet rooted to the spot and paralized from taking action. Growth in your business can sometimes be slow, even if it is dependable, because you rarely take risks and refuse to step out of your comfort zone. What to do about it: Do one thing every day that scares you. Send the email. Go live on Facebook. Take imperfect action forward. And guess what? The magic happens OUTSIDE of your comfort zone. Not everything has to be planned out to perfection before you start taking action.
