Entrepreneurship is the greatest self-discovery adventure you could ever embark on. But even when you know so many things and are an expert on a subject, there are money insights only someone who has been there can tell you about, and financial growth’s key aspects are one of them.

When I started my financial education platform to teach women entrepreneurs about money, few entrepreneurs looked like me, and that limited my opportunity to examine and follow more than they did on social media. As a finance professional, I thought I could figure it out as I “had everything” I needed to grow financially without any hiccups on the way; after all, I went to university and have been involved with the finance world since high school, but I couldn’t be further from reality.

When you are a Black, brown or female entrepreneur of color, your financial journey is directly correlated to different factors like your identity, your and your family’s beliefs around entrepreneurship and money, and the way that you fit in all of those subconscious habits with money, including your relationship with money. But that is something no one is talking about, and it costs us years of trial and error that hinder our ability to grow a business and our confidence and create a strong basis as an entrepreneur.

Here are the five key insights I wish fellow entrepreneurs had shared about navigating the financial landscape as a Black founder.

My relationship with money impacts financial growth

How we relate to money — the meanings, beliefs, interpretations and ways of doing that create what we call a relationship with money — are essential in your journey to grow financially as a Black female entrepreneur. Early in my entrepreneurial journey, I didn’t fully grasp how my beliefs, perspective, and financial identity would influence my business decisions that were directly connected to money, like pricing, or those that indirectly had to do with money, such as showing up to promote my programs.

Take a moment to analyze: Are you one of those who go on automatic pilot, executing every strategy in the market, but have a hard time talking about money, looking for a proper way of pricing, seeing your bank account and doing money planning? Then, it’s time to look at your relationship with money.

Family’s beliefs around money and entrepreneurship need to be filtered

Your relationship with money, how you think about opportunities in entrepreneurship, how you manage money and many other skills you need when growing a business have been in the making since you were too little to remember. From the way you feel about money to the way you face risk, setbacks and other mental and emotional rollercoasters with money, you’ll need to become your best advocate when it comes to filtering the opinions or advice that comes from your close social circle that isn’t in alignment or doesn’t support where you want to go.

The best way to filter those views out is to assess, according to your vision and financial goal, what advice, beliefs, behaviors and opinions are useful to listen to (and will most likely support you in advancing toward your goal). If they are not applicable, then they will not have space for you to consider them.

For instance, what use can you find in “You have to give us family prices?” I haven’t seen any use for this opinion in my career. Instead, it is quite the opposite. It brings a lot of guilt and shame. Thus, it has been filtered out since year one of business.

Having a community that supports is key

As an entrepreneur, you’re doing what most of the people we know are not, and to grow financially, you need to start having the proper discussions with the right people.

The matters that preoccupy your mind and the insights you may need to find a better, more cost-effective system or to get out of your head are found in a community.

Surround yourself with like-minded entrepreneurs and mentors who understand your challenges and can offer guidance, but most importantly, as a Black entrepreneur, a community that understands your unique challenges that go across putting yourself together and feeling the reality of paying the bills simultaneously. Join networking groups, listen to podcasts and join their community, attend industry events and participate in online forums that reflect what you want to become financially and where you want to take your business.

Financial planning is non-negotiable for financial growth

One thing I knew from school that this path only reconfirmed was that financial planning is not negotiable from the get-go if you want to grow. With your desire and motivation to grow your business, much of that emotional side of money gets triggered. It could be to buy that next course, subscribe to a platform, buy the next piece of equipment or spend on advertising when it wasn’t the right timing; for all of these cases and the ones, your money planning will be your best ally. It is essential to have a base where you can come to and ground yourself when those urges to make the extra purchase or the extra investment mean faster financial growth.

Don’t be overcomplicated. Just shift the focus from “I just need to make money” to assigning and tracking your numbers.

Your management goals are as important as your revenue goals

One of the habits I work the most on shifting with my community is to change the focus from a revenue-oriented way of thinking to amplify the spectrum and consider how you manage what you earn. As an entrepreneur, you get a lot of marketing, information and sometimes standards stressing revenue as the way to measure growth; however, learning how to manage that revenue that is not pocket money, a one-time off lucky shot or an “I’ll never have this amount of money again” becomes your financial key.

Balance your drive for revenue with a solid plan for managing and growing your business sustainably.

It’s been said that when you make a sale, people aren’t necessarily buying the product or service you’re offering — they’re buying you. The reason this statement tracks is that you have to be an effective communicator when it comes to your sales pitch and your personal style.

A clear-cut value proposition must demonstrate what’s in it for the consumer you’re targeting. You also have to understand the persona of your target audience and what motivates them. When you’re making your appeal, you have to establish both credibility and trust, which is why your brand’s unique value proposition and key differentiators are so crucial to define.

In today’s hustle and bustle world, where attention spans continue to shrink, it’s more important than ever to be concise and focused. And you can never walk away from a sales pitch without some form of a call to action. Whether it’s a product or a service, it’s important to lay out the next steps of your sales process.

Keep reading for advice and insights that explain why some efforts fail to resonate, helpful ideas for retooling your strategy, and six specific, impactful ways to supercharge your sales pitch and close more deals.

Attributes of a poor sales pitch

Practice makes perfect, but revitalizing your sales pitch may take considerable time. However, you should always begin with an audit and review of your current efforts.

If you happen to note any of the following shortcomings in your sales materials, improvement of some kind is not only necessary, it’s required:

• No Personalization – when your sales pitch is overly generic, it’s likely not addressing the specific needs or interests of your target market, leaving them uninspired
• Lack of Empathy – failing to connect with your consumer’s specific pain points properly makes your effort seem disconnected. Or even worse, out-of-touch
• Inauthentic — If you default to ChatGPT to develop your sales pitch, you’ll end up with an overly scripted, generic and insincere message.
• Lack of Key Differentiators – sure, you may have a stellar product or service to offer, but if you’re not highlighting exactly what sets you apart from the competition, you’re missing the mark. If you’ve built a better mousetrap, explain the key differentiators.
• Lack of Engagement – Another key mistake is getting so caught up in your messaging and attributes that you fail to engage with your target audience. Lack of engagement almost always results in a lack of investment.

How to retool your sales pitch

If you recognize any of the aforementioned problems in your current sales materials and efforts, it’s time to retool them. Here are some specific ways to go about it:

• Seek Unbiased Feedback – send your sales pitch to a close friend or colleague and ask them to give you a 100% honest assessment. Pay close attention to their feedback
• Marketplace Review: It may be time to examine market conditions and the current level of demand among your target audience more closely. If things seem off, update your positioning.
• Competitive Analysis – if you’re not paying attention to the sales efforts of your direct competitors, begin some opposition research right away
• Upgrade Your Design Elements – maybe your message is getting lost because you’re not paying enough attention to the visual aspect of your sales pitch. Consider compelling images and videos.
• Diversify Your Pitches – no rule says you can only use one version of your pitch at a time. Consider diversifying your pitch and using multiple versions. Then, track and assess which messages are breaking through

6 impactful ways to supercharge your sales pitch

If you’ve done your homework and put in the required effort, it’s now time to revamp and relaunch your revised sales pitch. But before you do, review this helpful checklist to get started on the right foot:

1. Lead With a Strong Hook – within your first couple of sentences, you need to grab their attention. Tease your target audience with an intriguing question, statistic, or data point.
2. Know Your Audience – take the time to review the personas of your target audience and determine what motivates them to take action.
3. Tell a Story – at least one version of your new sales pitch materials should feature a relatable story, a case study, or a testimonial that boosts the value of what you’re selling.
4. Focus on Benefits, Not Features – all of your bells and whistles make good copy, but it’s important to emphasize the benefits of your product or service. How will it improve your customer’s lives?
5. Build credibility – don’t just spew facts, data and statistics. Support them, and you’ll build credibility.
6. Ask for the Order – make your specific call to action and direct the recipient to the next step in the sales process. Don’t just leave them hanging.

As any good salesperson will tell you, nothing compares to the thrill of closing a deal. It’s a feeling that doesn’t subside over time, especially if you truly care about your performance and the goal of meeting your sales KPIs. Revamping your sales materials shouldn’t feel like a chore but a mission. If you follow this helpful advice, don’t be surprised when it results in more engagement, more discussion, and ultimately – more sales.

“Spatial” is certainly one of the most popular words this year. In my opinion, Collins Dictionary is likely to include it at least on its shortlist for 2024. Spatial computing is an innovative technology that is changing the way we interact with digital content. And I want to emphasize that it’s not just a new technology, but a new philosophy about how we interact with the digital world.

In this article, I want to discuss how spatial content will impact businesses around the world and how its consumption is changing the global business agenda. We used to think in terms of flattened pictures and videos that were necessarily tied to the devices that broadcast them. Now we need a new type of thinking — spatial. The surface for transmitting information is literally the air around us.

The future of spatial technologies

My article aims to provide entrepreneurs with basic knowledge and understanding of the potential of immersive technologies and generative AI in business. Specifically, I would like to focus on augmented reality technology, as this is the type of immersive technology that is most available right now. In fact, any smartphone can work with web AR technology now (to interact with AR content, you need internet access and any web browser on your smartphone — you don’t need to install any applications).

Imagine that in three to five years, users will replace cell phones with XR glasses. There are already many factors for this change in consumption patterns. Apple Vision Pro is a flagship in creating a fashion for consuming immersive technology in everyday life.

In addition, more than 50 companies around the world are working on their own versions of XR glasses. All the tech giants are using augmented reality as part of their global strategy. The AR software market is projected to surpass $140 billion in 2025, which will show a 12-fold growth. Projected consumer spending on physical goods with AR will reach $255 billion in three years, and it’s already billions in sales today.

In 2020, 83.7 million people used AR at least once per month in the U.S. (and this is data from before Apple Vision Pro was released). This trend is coupled with the evolutionary development of the impression economy, where customer experience is increasingly becoming a deciding factor in purchase decisions. There is no doubt that AR is becoming mainstream, just like generative AI, but with less PR backing for now.

The transformative impact of spatial computing

There is no doubt that the launch of Apple Vision Pro has had an impact on the market. But beyond the devices themselves, it’s important to understand what software we need and, in my opinion, even more importantly, what content will work to achieve business goals.

The development of generative AI to create visuals, video and spatial content through augmented reality technology, has already helped make a significant leap in the creation of such content. In the rapidly changing world of artificial intelligence, entrepreneurs are actively integrating generative AI technologies into their business processes. With the growing interest in these technologies, the a16z foundation has estimated a threefold increase in budgets for implementing generative AI in businesses in 2024. These costs are moving from innovation budgets to ongoing software budgets.

Now, we will explore the key concepts, benefits and challenges businesses may face in implementing these technologies, as well as examples of how to effectively utilize them to drive growth and innovation across industries.

Steps to integrating AR and generative AI into your business

• Understanding market needs: Knowing your target audience and how spatial computing can meet their needs or solve existing problems is the first step to successful implementation.

• Spatial thinking: Now is the time when the bold application of new technologies can set trends for your business for years to come. The market is completely fresh — there are no established rules and traditions. Boldly use your imagination and out-of-the-box thinking, and change your traditional content to spatial content.

• Team training: It’s important that your team is aware of the possibilities of AR and AI. Investing in training and skills development is key to innovation.

• Pilot projects: Start small by launching pilot projects to evaluate the impact of AR on your business and get feedback from users.

• Utilize off-the-shelf platforms: No-code platforms offer tools to create AR content without the need for deep programming knowledge, making the technology accessible to a wide range of entrepreneurs.

• Adapt and iterate: The AR market is rapidly evolving, so it’s important to constantly adapt and improve your content based on user feedback and changes in technology.

Business benefits

• Improved customer engagement: AR offers unique opportunities to create an engaged and interactive user experience.

• Increase sales: Interactive AR product demonstrations can increase conversion and average check.

• Differentiation: Innovative use of AR and AI can set your brand apart from competitors.

• Process optimization: AR can simplify and speed up various business processes such as staff training or product demonstrations.

Overcoming challenges

• Talent acquisition: Implementing and scaling generative AI and immersive technologies requires the right talent, which many companies currently lack.

• User adaptation: Businesses must help users get used to a new type of interaction with their brand.

• Wide thinking: Without innovative thinking, projects risk becoming one-size-fits-all.

• Lack of long-term experience: Lack of accumulated experience can be a barrier.

• Being a pioneer: Experimentation and pioneering can be difficult for many corporations, but it is essential for innovation.

Ahead of the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election, the future of cryptocurrency and its regulation has become a topic of discussion among voters.

On Thursday, a regulatory financial filing by Republican nominee Donald Trump showed that the former President owns over $1 million in crypto, showing Silicon Valley that the presidential candidate may have favorable crypto policies derived from personal interest.

Related: Mark Cuban Says He’s Received ‘Multiple Questions’ From Kamala Harris About Crypto

The financial filing stated that Trump owns a cryptocurrency wallet and a “virtual Ethereum key” which, depending on the current markets, can range in value from $1 million to $5 million.

Trump’s current stance on crypto is a “hands-off” approach allowing the market to self-regulate.

The former President now also accepts cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin, as funding for his campaign, signaling a strong pivot from his prior stance that crypto was a “scam” and “disaster waiting to happen.”

In an interview with Bloomberg, Trump championed Bitcoin mining in the U.S. to curb China’s growing influence over the market.

“If we don’t do it, China is going to figure it out, and China’s going to have it—or somebody else,” Trump said.

Last month, Mark Cuban told Decrypt in an interview that he had been fielding calls from Democratic nominee Kamala Harris’ team about cryptocurrency and advice on the market.

Cuban then accused Silicon Valley leaders that support Trump of doing so as a “Bitcoin play.”

“What will drive the price of BTC is lower tax rates and tariffs, which if history is any guide (and it’s not always ), will be inflationary,” Cuban explained on X. “Combine that with global uncertainty as to the geopolitical role of the USA, and the impact on the US Dollar as a reserve currency, and you can’t align the stars any better for a BTC price acceleration.”

After running my own advertising and PR company for the past 22 years, I have learned that you always have to think ahead and be resourceful. Whatever worked yesterday doesn’t mean it will work today or tomorrow, especially now in our post-pandemic world.

When the cost of living crisis hit, I could see many companies in trouble. They were struggling with finding leads, filling their calendars with appointments and setting up automation in their business to save time and money. This is something that I have experience with — over two decades of experience, so I created an offer to help companies of all sizes remain afloat. But the challenge I faced was, how do I get this offer out there? So, I turned to Meta advertising — advertising on Facebook and Instagram.

Related: How to Master the Art of Digital Marketing in 2023

With many years of digital marketing and advertising experience under my belt, here are my hacks for scaling the digital marketing side of my business for just $10 a day.

1. Have an irresistible offer

You need to think about what will make people stop and want to speak with you. Put yourself in your potential customers’ shoes. If you don’t think that you would want to take up your amazing offer, then would they? Focusing on the benefits of your product or services that your customers will receive will help you craft your luring proposal.

For example, if you’re a real estate agent selling properties, don’t sell a specific home on social media with a photo of the listing, but rather target investors — offering them the opportunity to purchase a great asset without even featuring an image of the property. It’s the return on investment that you’re ultimately promoting rather than the home for sale.

Guarantees can be captivating, too, as long as you can deliver on your promise and it doesn’t sound too far-fetched. The ads that guarantee “we will ensure we provide you with 15 full paying clients within a month” are too unrealistic and actually deter potential customers. Instead, for example, you could have a 30-day satisfaction guarantee if you have a coaching course or “see results in 30 days” if you’re a personal trainer.

2. Create a scroll-stopping design

The best designs have the foundation of a brilliant, funny and clever headline that grabs attention. I have found that slick, professionally shot and edited videos don’t work at all. People are on social media to catch up on their friends and family’s updates — not to see a fancy video ad. Attention spans are diminishing by the minute. Don’t think for a second that your target audience will watch your 90-second video encouraging them to go to a landing page. Instead, base your design with a simple, easy-to-read font combined with a plain background that pops. When it comes to your static image design, less is more. Your headline should be the only text that makes up the graphic. This will get viewers to stop scrolling right away.

Don’t have a designer? Don’t worry. Programs like Canva make it very easy to create different designs for social media channels and even come with inbuilt size templates so you know that your artwork will be compliant. The Facebook advertising manager platform also has an AI feature that will automatically redesign your artwork for various placements, so you no longer have to design multiple versions.

3. Set your campaign objectives

Facebook and Instagram have recently overhauled their lead form ads, allowing advertisers to get leads inexpensively by using their built-in forms. After all, Meta wants its audience to stay on its channels for as long as possible, so companies that opt to use its in-built forms and keep their audience sticky are being rewarded.

Think about your objectives and structure your campaign accordingly using the platform’s options. If you’re after more sales and leads, lead forms are ideal. Another great way of increasing engagement with potential customers is with an engagement campaign that encourages people to message you directly. This is often a preferred way of communicating with people under 45 years of age.

4. Optimize the ROI on your advertising spend

When it comes to your designs, it’s important to see what works and what doesn’t without changing too many variables at once. I always suggest spending no more than $10 a day initially with your ads. By doing so, your ad creative is actually doing all the heavy lifting rather than your budget. If you have a lackluster ad or offer, testing at $100 a day could skew your results because you’re spending more than your competitors. Choosing to test at just $10 a day, you will see within a day or two the return on investment on the creative you are testing. If it’s meeting your objectives, keep going at $10 a day. If not, turn off that ad set and launch a second creative and start again.

5. Slowly increase your Meta advertising budget for consistent campaign performance

Once you’re seeing results with your creative, it’s time to scale. This doesn’t always mean boosting your budget immediately. It often takes the pixel a little while to go through a learning period. Many of my clients only spend $10 a day, like myself on ads, and get several leads coming in each day. However, if you want to increase the learning phase period, then start off slowly by increasing your budget by no more than 25% every few days.

When it comes to marketing your business on a budget, it definitely is possible and thanks to platforms like Meta, you can now quickly see what’s working and what’s not. Never has there been a time in business where you can turn on or off an advertising campaign so quickly and measure results down to every dollar spent.

Technology is evolving exponentially, and businesses need help keeping up. That’s why EvonSys has dominated the “low code” market for years. Low code refers to developing apps and other tools that require little or no coding. EvonSys already creating enterprise tools for many of the world’s largest banks and governments, but it’s only the beginning.

Eventually, almost every company will need someone to create software tools suited to its needs, both internal and external. Those solutions are typically very expensive and take a lot of time. Instead of hiring a pricey team of coders, companies can use EvonSys’ software platform to assist in the development process.

For a limited time, EvonSys is taking private shareholders. And with the emergence of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and other world-altering tech, they see a tremendous growth opportunity ahead.

Here are reasons to invest in EvonSys amid the next wave of innovation.

$3.6T low-code market opportunity.

The low-code market, valued at $3.6 trillion, represents one of the most significant growth opportunities in tech today. And it’s growing fast.

A great example of the “low code” transition can be found in website design platforms like Squarespace, Webflow, and Wix. These tools help create good-looking websites using minimal code. About 23 million websites have been built using platforms like these. If you do the math based on Wix’s monthly subscription alone ($16), 23 million websites translate to about $4 billion in revenue over the course of a year.

Of course, website-building and management platforms are often priced much higher than that. And this is just a small segment of the vast market potential in low-code software.

EvonSys targets an even deeper enterprise-level niche. Everything from in-house project management tools to customer communication is fair game. That’s why they’ve thrived on the world stage with their innovative SaaS offerings so far.

Proven traction and clientele.

EvonSys has been delivering results and proving market leadership from the start. Over the past three years, the company has doubled its revenue and established a robust client base, including more than 50 of the highest-revenue companies in the world. Notable partners include Microsoft and Salesforce.

Many of EvonSys’ business software solutions are based on Salesforce and Pega. Their platform’s AI-powered decision-making and user-friendly suite of design tools allow businesses to develop custom apps quickly. With that, they can help address specific industry needs and enhance a company’s overall efficiency.

EvonSys’ diverse clientele points to its stability and showcases its ability to cater to various industry needs with its low-code technology.

EvonSys’ pre-IPO investment opportunity.

As EvonSys continues to lead the charge in the low-code revolution, it’s now opening the doors for investors through a Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) investment opportunity. This move represents a strategic step to fuel the company’s ambitious growth plans, with a target revenue goal of $100 million within five years.

The other exciting part is that EvonSys hopes for an IPO by 2026. This investment round, open to accredited and non-accredited investors, is a rare chance to be part of a market-leading technology firm before it goes public.

Investors who join EvonSys will support the company’s future growth and gain entry into a high-potential market still in its formative stages.

With EvonSys at the helm of the low-code revolution, the future of tech looks brighter than ever. See how you can be part of this transformative journey here.
