The 7 Deadly Sins of Entrepreneurship

“You are an authentic person who brings tremendous style, strength, and skill to your business.”

- Shelagh Cummins

What if I told you that more than 50% of businesses are generating revenue below the poverty line? Would you be surprised to learn that the reason behind this comes down to what I call The Seven Deadly Sins of entrepreneurship? 

I see women making these seven mistakes every single day, so I want to share with you what they are and how you can overcome them, so that your business will go beyond surviving, to thriving. But make no mistake, each of these “deadly sins” requires that you take clear focused action in order to avoid committing them.

My goal is to support women entrepreneurs just like you, with financing, coaching, and training so that they can find the money and time freedom as they're building a fulfilling business on the road to, and beyond, seven figures, and in this episode I offer actionable steps that you can take to do that.

  • What the seven deadly sins of entrepreneurship are – and if you might be making them
