On Today’s episode of Smart Leaders Sell, Jess talks about her experience at the Youpreneur Summit and the key takeaways she brought back with her.
She gets into why her voices sounds just a little bit awful, and how she recorded this entire episode once already with her microphone on mute, before diving into her amazing experience at Youpreneur!
Jess takes us through the process of deciding to go, and lists a great group of reasons to attend quality conferences. She also explains just who was there, and why that excited her.
She makes an account of the first night, including such events as: hugging Pat Flynn and coercing him to hug another lady, coming face to face with a man in the washroom without realizing they were unisex, and being notably under dressed the entire time.
Mastery is one of the topic that Jess took away from the summit. She explains that a lot of people aren’t successful because they don’t take enough time on one thing to become great at it.
Consistency and Focus were other big takeaways from Youpreneur. Jess kicks off by listing off an impressive number of social media platforms she’s considered using for visibility. She explains how narrowing down her focus and being consistent is behind every success stories.
Jess ends things off with a talk about getting back to basics and learning what works specifically for you. She talks about the risk of following bright shiny objects, and what happens when you try to carry too many things at once.
