   readers. It will be interesting to see what comes out of the thinking
   caps that are going to be put on to present good answers to win
   your valuable package.

   your answers and your next move. I wish you success in your
   endeavor.

   To the victor goes her toils, so think well and write even better.

   What a great idea! This couldn’t come at a better time, either. I have worked nonstop for the past 2 years to create my business, my product and to do all the things you mention in your report. Unfortunately, the weak spot in my foundation (and it’s the big one) is Number 7, having the support network in place.

   I have been so close to my “new baby” I haven’t been able to maintain my objectivity and setbacks, which I know are a part of normal business as a third generation entrepreneur, sometimes completely throw me. This is not good.

   So far, my biggest marketing challenge, in fact my biggest business challenge, is capitalization. I’ve become stunningly adept at finding free resources that accomplish what I need, but where I save dollars, I lose hours and days of time that I want to be using in presenting my product, changing lives and living my own.

   I do hope I will be seen as a serious contender. With the help of a mentor who has done the hard work already, I know I would be absolutely unstoppable - I’m good now but watch out! Time to step it up.

   Thank you for offering this opportunity.

   My obstacles are many, but daily,
   I fight to grow and expand.
   Knowledge, information, New ideas
   and personal growth.
   I am looking for the day when
   all are cleared from my vision,
   Inner and outer.

   1. My biggest obstacle in business is being a higher functioning
   Autistic, and learning to relate to people in a way we all would
   understand. Communication. (Not scaring people away from what I know helps.)
   2. Of all the Seven Mistakes, I own quite a few. Plans, websites
   and organization. Learning successfully a logic-based system.
   3. My biggest marketing challenge is being able to communicate
   what I feel about others in a way that’ll help. I work with
   healing in EFT, and there’s a big market, Still just finding
   my niche.

   In all things, may YOU be Blessed,
   Thanks for listening.

   Carpe Diem,
   and always
   Be ready to make
   a leap of Faith
   into the Unknown.
   It is the leap
   Which reveals
   trust, belief,
   and the ability
   to Surrender.
   For in Surrender
   lies Your greatest
   Power, gifts, Talents.
   And You fear not what may
   Come.
   “In all things there lies
   Timing, purpose, and Meaning.”

   I was up last night reading emails, then yours came. I went to bed and for the next two hours thought about what I would write and what I could possibly say that would let you know how much I would love this opportunity. My thoughts went like an emotional rollercoaster. Should I write and expose myself as the frustrated failure that I feel at the moment and continue to do what I have always done (for the last two years)? Then I thought if I don’t write then I will miss the “chance” altogether.
   My biggest obstacle is twofold. The first is financial and second, due to the lack of finances, I am unable to take advantage of what others have paid someone to do for them. The learning curve has been huge and very time consuming.
   Of the mistakes, well, oh my gosh let me count the ways, LOL. My passion has never left and is just as strong as ever. And with my passion comes decisions, believing in myself and to keep working on my business no matter what. Some days better than others. All in all I have stick-to-it-ness. I have business experience in employment as well as being successful at self employment some years past. But as well you know, business today is very different. I am lost in this new business climate, I’m sorry to say. I have a target market but during the past two years I started out with one, then changed, then went back to the first one. I guess you could say that I have two niches that I am passionate about at the moment. The biggest mistake is that I lack in support, but certainly not for lack in effort for finding the support. Although I have a loving husband and many friends they just don’t understand business today and it’s workings. So I struggle alone knowing that there must be an easier way to do what I love.
   My biggest marketing challenge is the fact that I know what needs to be done and have the motivation to do it, but I don’t have a clue how to make it happen.
   So Donna, I guess the bottom line is I would consider this scholarship a blessing and would give it my upmost attention if you would give me this gift.

   Hi Donna,

   thanks for giving us the opportunity to enroll in your program for free. This sounds very interesting and I would like to apply! I am a new solopreneur, still without revenue, and would gain a lot from some help to kick start my business.

   1. What is your biggest obstacle in your business?
   I think my lack of experience in Sales and Marketing is my biggest obstacle. I’m still unsure where exactly I should start and how to start contacting people. Every night I go to bed asking myself whether I’m closer to getting some revenue and every night I must answer that I do not know. I work hard but I’m never sure it is in the right direction!

   2. Have you made or are you making any of the 7 Mistakes?
   - Mistake No. 3: Lack of Business Expertise
   - Mistake No. 6: Not Clearly Defining a Target Market and Niche

   3. What is your biggest Marketing Challenge?
   I do not know how to construct a working marketing campaign. I am going by trial and error at the moment, but I’m not sure whether I will succeed or not.

   I sincerely hope that this will be the chosen posting! Have a good night now!

   Hi Donna,

   Great incentive to get us thinking!!
   My biggest obstacle at this point is finding balance and getting focused. I feel like I am all over the place. I also need to get more confident in my skills by practicing them more. I tend to be a perfectionist which sometimes paralyzes me for fear of making a mistake! I absolutely believe I can be a success.

   Reading over the 7 biggest mistakes, the ones that stood out to me were #3, I want to bring my clients the highest level of service and value but I do find myself focusing on the outcome and what it means to me. I also find myself on the other end of that spectrum and get so worried about my client that I am not focusing on the business end. (I hope that makes sense) Also, #4. Not so much the actual planning of #4 but the consistency that needs to come after it. Also #5 is a struggle being new to building my own business, I don’t yet know what is really working.

   My biggest marketing challenge is knowing how to identify my “niche”. Getting systems in place to be consistent.

   Thanks Donna and I hope to hear from you!! I could really use the direction!!!

   Hi Donna,

   I am preparing my entry now. I’m giving it a lot of thought and hope it won’t be too long.

   Thank you so much for this opportunity.

   Hello Donna,

   Here is my entry. I wanted to start off with a brief background and at the end I address exactly you are looking for as a qualified candidate for this scholarship.

   *****

   For twenty years, I worked on book manuscripts and journal articles, typing, editing and formatting them in preparation for publishing. In all, over sixty manuscripts became published books and over ten articles became published in scientific journals. I transferred to another department as an Administrative Secretary but never lost my passion and desire to design documents. I did some during these seven years, preparing banquet and graduation programs. There was one particular moment I remember when I was helping a co-worker shred some documents she used to review faculty for tenure. I came across several scientific manuscripts, beautifully designed. I mentioned to her that this was the type of work I use to do and told her how I wished I would get another opportunity to do that type of work.

   In 2007, I took a chance and retired early in order to pursue my dream of having a home-based business. I thought about it for a long time, and in 2008 made a “leap of faith.” I started by contacting the authors I previously worked with. They were gracious in writing me letters of recommendation that I posted on my website. One of the authors I contacted asked me to work on a book, editing and formatting the contents, and designing the book cover. I was so excited when I received this offer. I had not even started on my website, nor done any marketing regarding my services. After the book was published the summer of 2008, I felt like I was on top of the world. I did one other job last year, a brochure, and then … nothing. I switched gears and finished my website, redesigning it twice.

   *****

   1. What is your biggest obstacle in your business?

   a. Conveying my services to a prospective client. Telling someone about my business and services in writing … not a problem (as you can tell I get a little carried away). However, actually talking to someone in person or on the phone scares the heck out of me. I can sell myself on a job interview, but for some reason this seemed different. I was not only selling myself, I was selling my services. How do I do this? I had no idea, and honestly thought about just giving up on it all. My profit/loss ratio is about 25% profit/75% loss due to the purchases I made to start my business.

   b. The fact that my skills are not as high and polished as I would like them to be. After working on the book, I realized I needed to brush up on my skills as it took me longer than it normally would have, as I had not done work like this in seven years. There was also the challenge of learning new programs that had become available since 2000. Being short of funds, I was not able to purchase the software I needed and resorted to purchasing software that was similar in style but at a much lower cost.

   2. Have you made or are you making any of the 7 Mistakes?
   a. #2 “Sitting on your butt and waiting for your dreams to fall into your lap.” I had the notion of “build it and they will come.” I built my website, but no one came.
   b. #3 “Lack of Business Expertise” & #4 “Poor Research and Planning.” Did this ever hit home when it came time to do my taxes! I did not have a finance software program. After a week of searching the internet and attempting to create a spreadsheet of my income/expenses, I purchased Quicken Home & Business and began the process of downloading all my financial institution information, and tagging and categorizing everything so I could bring it into my income tax software. This was at least a three-week process, NOT including preparing my taxes. An addition to this question would have to be the fact that I do not have a business plan.

   3. What is your biggest Marketing Challenge?
   a. Toward the end of 2008, I realized I needed to market myself, but was at a loss. I knew the best market would be publishing companies, especially those who published the books I worked on. But who to contact, and how? I searched online, found out the first step would be to make a telephone call rather than simply sending a brochure that might possibly be tossed out as junk. My goal for the beginning of 2009 was to begin doing this, but preparing for my income taxes became my goal.

   Why would I like to be chosen to receive a Year-Long Coaching Scholarship?
   a) To refine my communication skills; b) to build and grow my business; c) to increase my income; d) to reduce the clutter in my mind and daily life; e) to increase professional success and in turn receive personal satisfaction.

   If chosen to receive this opportunity, the benefits to my business and me would be unlimited. I want to:
   • re-learn how to relax and enjoy my personal time (at the moment it seems as if I don’t have any);
   • start taking better care of myself (I have made a resolution to NOT turn the computer on until I have exercised/meditated and dressed); after all, one can work in pajamas only so long :);
   • simplify my life;
   • create a balance enabling me to have my work, but to also enjoy my time off. I am neglecting so many things by focusing all of my attention to my business, social networking, learning new programs, etc.

   In conclusion, I want to express to you how extremely passionate I about my business and the work I do. I am a perfectionist, which sometimes does get me in trouble, but I want to deliver the best product to the client that I possibly can. I KNOW there is a demand for my services. Just look at all the books that are being published EVERY day! Somebody out there has to design them … why not me?

   I am hopeful that you will consider me a qualified candidate for consideration as I desperately need the help that you could offer me.

   Sincerely yours,

   Susan

    Greetings Donna,
    Thank you for the opportunity you have extended to us in your willingness to share your knowledge, expertise and experiences with us so we can become successful in our business endeavors. I greatly appreciate the opportunity I have had to really look at my business’s growth and development as I answered your questions. It was a real eye opener.

    1.What is your biggest obstacle in your business?
    Sharing my idea in a marketable way to attract loyal clients.
    I created my soloepreneur business for the purpose of introducing services, information and support in using alternative/complementary healthcare approaches for optimum health and wellness. It has been my passion,drive and motivating action for over 24+ years. The fruits of my labor have been very rewarding for me personally, as a business that’s another story many ups and downs which have been my Introduction to Business 101 through the school of hard knocks and on the job training. When my business idea is restructured in a marketable way my life will be the fulfillment of my heart’s desire to have an abundant cashflow so I can become a philanthropist giving to causes I want to support, traveling the world, enrolling in workshops and seminars that enhance my knowledge, hiring the best mentors and coaches to be my business adviser; purchase all the material things I want; establish my business accomplishments as a lasting legacy of my work and contribution to humanity.
    2. Have you made or are you making any of the 7 Mistakes ?
    As I read How to avoid the 7 Biggest Mistakes, I can confess to the following mistakes I have made: Lack of Business Expertise: I have not learned how to separate my business idea from does my client need or want it. I missed the boat in applying some these basic business skills. Poor Research and Planning: I have not done a market research to determine if there is a demand for my business idea. It sounds good to me but do I have a market that it sounds good to. I never thought about doing research, this is a concept I can see as being a valuable tool in business growth and planning. Developing A Business Plan. This is something that I avoided like a plaque. I now see the importance of a business plan so it is removed from your head and put on paper to make it real. A business plan is the foundation of the business because it is your road map. Defining A Target Market: Not connecting your business expertise with research makes it very difficult to find and present your service or product to the target market you are seeking? This piece of the business puzzle has always been a stumbling block for me. Lack Of Support Structure: It has not been that I have not tried to have a support system in place. I have not made the right choices needed to produce the right results. In answering this question I see I still have a lot to learn to become a successful solopreneur.
    3. What is your biggest Marketing Challenge?
    Effectively using online marketing tools to produce desired results. I have been working at a business rather than being in business. I have a business idea that I am very passionate about. Once I learn how to correct the common mistakes a solopreneur makes, my greatest challenge is catching up with technology which is the bases of all business operations. I sometimes feel overwhelmed in what do I need to do; where should I begin; what tools, resources or products do I immediately need to market my business in a technological world. When I can put this piece of the puzzle in place I will spread my wings and let the world know I am a successful solopreneur open and ready to do business.
    In conclusion it is often said that when a student is ready the teacher will appear. I am the student ready and eager to learn from the teacher.
    Warmest Regards,
    Njideka N. Olatunde

    Hello Ms. Amos,
    It is good to read all the inspiring messages on your site, and have been referred to your site by Nancy Lawler a fellow creative and friend. And although the deadline is past for your contest, I still wanted to post it anyway.

    Although I have been a proprietor for fifteen years, I have not been able to sustain the initial flow of new and prospective work to sustain a separate space for performing my business. I know many on this forum are in the same situation, but the lack of daily contact with the “real world” outside our home based companies does make for some unique challenges.

    My biggest obstacle is - my service of professional location photography for the past ten years of the digital revolution, has been devalued to the realm of using point and shoot flash pictures from company employees. Or not even see necessary to include images at all in marketing materials, and corporate websites. Facts and figures have ruled the business style w/ company brochures, and annual reports for many years now. And now have just the Chairman’s statement and the financial figures in b/w.
    How about promotion portraits done with available office lighting in your cubicle ?
    What has happened to the sincere emotion / real message of pride in the companies ?
    How do advertisers to motivate / reach out to new customers when their media commercials look like some teenagers made them, or they scream their furniture sales pitches ?
    And if thoughtful and appropriate messages / news items of actual quality are fewer, what does that say about the media ?

    I have purposely circumvented performing some of the rules and common easy solutions, and have substituted personal sacrifice, client empathy, and non-billable hours to perform in the most giving of my best talents in assignments I do. Sure repeat business initially verified that clients would acknowledged that, but now you can’t even talk to new people in the position to hire your services on the phone, and emails are ignored. ( litigation liability )

    I always try to use new ways of performing my craft with new tools or new ways of seeing or solving problems, every time I go out. I also try to stay centered in my body, and pay attention to my gut instinct, and wish to perform above my previous capacity.

    My hope is that a change may bring a new awareness to my marketing efforts that will connect with a more artistic / empathic market that values real creative new media and advertising, over everyday corporate decisions based on bean counting. And that somehow together we as Solopreneurs can overcome the artificial stifling barriers now in place.
    Hopefully I don’t sound TO much like I’m from the sixties ; )

    I am pleased to share that I have my passion; decision, belief and action; and quite a bit of business expertise. However, I am currently revamping my business plan, conducting more research and putting more time into planning. So, after reading your article, I can honestly say that I am halfway there.

    1. What is your biggest obstacle in your business?
    Currently, my biggest obstacles in my business are working on and in my business are my biggest obstacles. I need at least five more Marcies to truly be productive. As a freelance journalist, blogger and copywriter, I have to gather information for my stories through interviews and research. This requires time. This information has to be drafted; written; edited; and then revised. While this may not seem like much, it becomes a bit overwhelming when there are four or five stories at once. That’s working in the business.

    Working on my business requires phone calls to prospects and interviewees; recordkeeping; and lots of organization and time management. Planning is also crucial. At least three more Marcies are needed to complete this part of the business.

    2. Have you made or are you making any of the 7 Mistakes?
    My biggest mistake is not clearly defining a targert market. I think I have a big “S” on my chest with the thought that I can provide excellent writing services to everyone. That is just not possible, and I need to narrow my focus.

    3. What is your biggest Marketing Challenge?
    My biggest marketing challenge right now is an incomplete business plan. I am currently revising it to include services my business will provide. I have to finish writing out my services so I can clearly explain my offerings in all of my marketing materials.

    I feel that coaching will help me pull everything together, and get me moving in the right direction.

    Hi Donna,

    After reading the entries, you WILL have a tough time making a decision. I know you’ll put a lot of thought into it, and will choose the right person. And what a diverse group of people who entered! I’ve checked out the websites, and they are all pretty much different from each other.

    To everyone who has submitted an entry, good luck to all of you and may the best man/woman win.

    Good luck, Donna, and I’ll be checking back in either tomorrow evening, or Friday morning, to see who the winner is. I enjoy reading your Twitter and Facebook comments.

    Take care, have a great day, and blessings to you,

    April 29th, 2009 at 11:14 pm

    Greetings Donna,

    1. What is my biggest obstacle in my business?

    I have lost my passion for my work. I want out and I don’t know how to do so. I believe it is time to change my focus in life and build new things. I have built a successful business that can be a big asset toward funding my new path, yet I have no clue how to go about selling it.

    2. Have I made or am I making any of the 7 Mistakes?

    Certainly. In the past I have been guilty of nearly non-existent research and planning. Charging ahead with ideas to generate income that sound fun, are fun, but don’t do much in the way of generating ENOUGH income. Right now, it is the lack of planning in my current business with regards to an exit strategy that has become my albatross.
    It is only dumb luck that my business has grown in spite of my lack of marketing plans and actions. My services have generated sufficient word of mouth buzz, my clients getting me on Angie’s List where my referral rates outpace my availability, and the local hardware store handing out my business cards to customers who ask for reliable services providers have given me more work than I can handle – all without necessarily defining my niche market or having a marketing plan.

    3. My biggest Marketing Challenge?

    My biggest Marketing Challenge is getting my new venture off on the right foot. To overcome my avoidance for planning and my lack of knowledge and confidence in researching markets and creating plans. I feel that if I can learn how to do the research and use the technological tools available these days to accomplish that, I will have a whole new set of tools in the toolbox to use on whatever venture I find is viable, whether it be the one I’m currently looking at starting up, or some other idea. I’ve learned a lot with both my many failed business startups and my current successful business. Luck should no longer be the deciding factor for success – knowledge and applied skills should be.

    Anyone can fail at a business. It’s easy. Anyone can startup one or two or three businesses and fail before giving up. It took me nearly a dozen tries over 30 years to finally get my first successful business. I have perseverance. I take action. I understand the need to solve the clients’ problems first and foremost. It’s what has given me an unbelievable retention rate on my current clients.

    In the past, I have overcome some obstacles by stubbornly refusing to let them stop me. It wasn’t elegant, it wasn’t fun, but it did the job in certain circumstances. I would much rather ‘learn’ the obstacles out of existence than fight them. I almost think of it as a Zen business approach – instead of bending the obstacle (spoon), know there is no obstacle (spoon).

    I feel I have more to give than I currently have time and energy. My current business is sucking the life out of me and new adventures are calling. By learning how to plan, research, and use processes and technology to overcome my current obstacles, I hope to discover how to pass my successful business on to someone who will take it and thrive and be excited about how it helps them and others. I hope to use the income generated by the sale of my current business to finance future ventures and new avenues for helping not just individuals but entire communities. And in learning, using, and making these tools my own, I know I will be able to apply them to future obstacles that may pop up, so that I may easily resolve future obstacles as well.

    Whether I am chosen for this scholarship or not, I know I will continue to pursue my goals for an enriched and lower stress life and business. It may take a little longer and a little more work, but I will see you when I get there.

    Thank you for the opportunity to work with you.

    Sincerely,

    Darien

    Dear Donna

    I just saw Michele’s tweet and although it was fairly late here in the UK I had to come visit your site to discover more …

    What a marvelous opportunity … and one I would seize with 110% commitment. My passion is health; mental, emotional, physical and spiritual, as I’m such an enthusiastic supporter of Integrated Health. And these are such exciting times as western medicine is starting to integrate with the mind/body therapies and how simultaneously there is scientific evidence proving that our learned behaviors effect us at a cellular level. I love it and as a Hypnotherapist / EFT / NLP and Psych-K Practitioner I love sharing such rapid change techniques with clients … What a difference they and I have experienced over the years, especially in relation to our quality of life.

    I am moving into a new role as Business Coach for Therapists and Coaches because I have a strong network of regular offline practice and online contacts and love sharing information. This role has come about partly through my getting involved in online marketing (for around the last 9-mths). I want to support others and share the information to work ON their business as well as IN it. Therapists/coaches often work in isolation and so immersed that they’re not making the time to consider longer term goals, expansion, broadening their range or exit strategies. And invariably they are not realizing the potential for online marketing, residual income and the great openings for their business and themselves as their own market expert with Web 2.0 marketing.

    What is your biggest obstacle in your business?
    Do I sound like I have it all sewn up … well my biggest obstacle is keeping all the plates spinning, with 3-sites feeding into Business Coach, Health Coach and related Affiliate Products - all newish sites. Lots of learning and loving that too … not enough hours in the day … and wanting to practice what I preach … still learning but also wanting to share the information - so there’s the wonderful challenge of finding suitable people to joint venture with as my yet to be found Therapist clients get onboard … I’m currently engaged in building a database of prospective clients to target (offline) and have done some market research with colleagues / (non-friend) therapists (as wanted more impartial feedback) and so far it looks promising … From what I’ve gleaned online I think there’s a strong potential market (in every which way).

    Have you made or are you making any of the 7 Mistakes?
    Marrying Marketing Plan to Business Plan … I tend to work intuitively and that can lead me away from specific focus … because I have a good eye for written, layout, color, image, detail and most importantly for people and love to support those who’ve ‘got it’. I can get side-tracked from the business of business and subsequently that has thrown light on my own lack of business experience as I’m just under 18-mths down the road of being self-employed as previously worked while training and then fitted therapy clients around that - not necessarily ideal. When the opportunity arose to step out on my own I took it … armed with savings and very little in the way of business experience per-say … And this may seem contradictory that I want to business coach others, and for a while my confidence wavered, but I know I’ll be good at it … and over the last month have been really stepping into feeling the role.

    What is your biggest Marketing Challenge?
    A challenge I have, and as a coach its a bit of a confession, I have a public speaking phobia that needs working on … yet would like to step into the whole platform of Social Marketing online as a strand of my future business. Until quite recently I had confidence issues and now I am just feeling so strong and ready to go for everything … and deal with any and all obstacles … How has that affected my marketing abilities, well even Health Coaching I found it quite challenging to self promote.

    I want to learn how to break into workable segments (all that I want to achieve) by learning how to prioritize everything and for this I need guidance … I have some great ideas when they occur, but I’m realizing the importance of not running off at every tangent … Instead I need systems and a how-to (for myself foremost) of an achievable journey and beyond … in order to become an authoritative and authentic business coach working from a place of integrity …

    I hope this has made sense and I hope you chooooose me … sorry but I do … … I’m so feeling ready to step up to the plate … good times!

    Warm wishes

    Jane

    Some of us even don’t realize the importance of this information. What a pity.
