I Went From Cocktail Waitress to Self-Made Millionaire at 33. Here Are My Secrets

I Went From Cocktail Waitress to Self-Made Millionaire at 33. Here Are My Secrets I’ve had a lot of jobs in the 33 years I’ve been alive. I used to be a cocktail server. I also worked as a hostess, a steakhouse server, a Mexican-restaurant server, a newspaper intern, and a barista. I’ve worked at a bookstore, a jewelry store, a cable company, a sheet-metal company, a church, an inner-city school (as a therapist), and a family-counseling center (as a play-therapist). My longest-running job, however, was as a nanny to a few wealthy families in the wildly affluent Highland Park, Texas. Through my undergraduate studies in psychology, while I earned a master’s degree in counseling, and well into the Ph.D. that I eventually left behind to start and grow my business, I burped babies, cooked chicken nuggets for snack time, and folded someone else’s downy-soft Egyptian-cotton bath towels. I spent the rest of my waking hours hanging flyers for my life-coaching business on every bulletin board at every Starbucks in Dallas every day, working with the early clients those flyers brought me, and trying to piece enough money together to pay my rent and create the life I wanted. I built my first website myself by reading very non-blonde-girl-friendly message boards and watching how-to YouTube videos. There were many all-nighters as I taught myself internet marketing, online branding, and digital content creation, but I was determined. By the time I graduated with my master’s degree and dropped out of my Ph.D. program, I had a couple hundred thousand dollars in student-loan debt and no money in savings, and I had gotten enough of a taste of entrepreneurship through my baby life-coaching business that I knew I absolutely could not work for someone else. I was afraid â€" really, really afraid â€" of failure, but I had a hunch that I could do this. I had to figure out how to make money and make a difference. It’s been five years since I quit my Ph.D. program and five years and three months since I launched my first digital course. Today, Amanda Frances Inc. is a multimillion-dollar company that provides unique business-development and personal-development courses to hundreds of thousands of women, teaching them how to launch their own online businesses and empowering them to design lives and businesses they love. I am completely self-taught when it comes to the technology, marketing, branding, and messaging sides of my business. My company grossed nearly $3 million in revenue last year and earned $1 million in the first quarter of 2019. Catapulting my life from being a nanny from Sand Springs, Oklahoma, to a multimillionaire CEO living in Malibu, California, while running the company of my dreams might seem like a far-fetched, meteoric rise based on pure luck and chance, but if there’s one thing I know for certain it’s this: You can have the life you’ve designed in your dreams, every single bit of it. Lots of people like to ask me what mentors I had, what business books I read. Who did I follow? I have never read a single business book or taken a business course. I don’t listen to podcasts. I simply chose (and continue to choose) to learn how to master my own wealth and destiny, and then teach other women to do the same. Here are my three best and biggest pieces of advice for moving your vision forward and achieving your dreams. 1. Decide what you will have. Write it down. In my eight years of running this company and five years of my business fully supporting me, I have observed that when most people say they’re going to do something, they often go back and forth, questioning themselves often, while taking on outside opinions that say their desired outcome is far-fetched and impossible to achieve. The truth is, without a real decision, nothing ever moves forward. A firm, committed, non-negotiable internal decision is required to move your dreams forward. Every day in my journal, I listed who I was, what I would have, and where I was going. That is something I still do today. That nanny/cocktail server had already made her decision. The company I have today was clear in my heart and mind from behind that bar. 2. Hold two visions at a time. My first business goal was to afford two blowouts a month and pay my rent with business earnings. Eight years later, I’m buying a multimillion-dollar house in a posh neighborhood in LA and meet seven-figure investment goals. How? I hold two visions at once. I always know what the short-term goal is (i.e., the next thing you will buy, do, or pay off in the immediate future) and what the long-term goal is (the big vision in your life and the wild goals you deeply long to achieve). Through holding two visions at a time, I can take daily steps to move both goals forward. I encourage you to see yourself at your next level of success while continuing to do what is required in your daily life. In this way, you can meet the daily needs of your business while knowing that all steps are adding up to your bigger vision. Even when I was in school and working three of these jobs at a time, I did what was required each day for those jobs and held tightly to the vision of the company I was building. 3. Ignore everyone â€" and I mean everyone. A lot of people will have opinions about what you should do to achieve your dreams. Unless they have what you want, ignore them. (This includes your psychic, your pastor, and your parents.) You have to do what works for, is right for, and makes sense to you. It doesn’t matter who says it isn’t wise, realistic, or business-savvy. You have the unique insight for the business that you desire to bring to the world. You have to trust your own intuition. The thing is, the rules are outdated. And only going after what is realistic is not what your soul is yearning for. Only listen to the people and things that help you believe in yourself and your limitless possibility. Whether you’re just embarking on your entrepreneurial journey or are well into it, remember that a daily commitment to yourself and your vision is the difference between a business that barely moves forward and experiences inconsistent success and a thriving business that multiplies its revenue every year. Back when I was working all those jobs (not that long ago, really!) I knew and believed in the plans I had for myself and my life â€" and acted accordingly each day.

How To Transform Your BORING Cover Letter - Work It Daily

How To Transform Your BORING Cover Letter - Work It Daily When you find a job you’d like to apply for, how do you approach writing your cover letter? If you’re like most people, it’s with a groan of apprehension rather than a skip and a hop up of elation. You don’t have to be a wordsmith to write a great cover letter. You just need to understand is what motives the employer is seeking to accomplish in hiring this position. Related: How To Write A Hot Cover Letter What in no means ever motivates an employer, is your increased learning and success. Employers are not interested in what the position will do for you or what working for their organization will do for your career. They don’t care about how you will learn and grow under their tutelage. Even if you are seeking an internship which by definition is a learning opportunity, internship supervisors have a definite agenda for what will be accomplished for them and their organization. Instead of following a boring form template where employers are encouraged to skip to the second paragraph, show your passion up front. They likely know what position you are applying for. Instead of stating it up front, talk about your connection to the company or position. You want to get them interested in you from ‘hello’ so that they feel compelled to continue reading. Try to create an emotional connection through storytelling. If you are looking to be a financial advisor, dig into your personal experiences to demonstrate passion and commitment. Example: “When I was 8 I started my first business. I knew I wanted to go to college and set out to create a financial plan to get me there. I figured if I could mow 10 neighbors’ lawns for $30/week for each summer until I graduated high school and invested each summer’s earnings in a college investment fund, I’d be able to afford 4 years of tuition at a state university. Now I want to help others reach their financial goals.” You can also appeal to the mission of the company. Find a way to relate your values or a personal experience to what the company does or its mission. If you were applying to a job at Chipotle your cover letter might look like this: “When I was growing up my family planted a garden every year. We ate from our garden all summer long and canned veggies each fall for the winter months. I’ll never forget when we ran out of tomatoes and had to get them from the store. It was so disappointing! Ever since, I’ve been a supporter of locally sourced non-GMO produce which is why I feel such a connection to Chipotle’s mission.” Here are some other points to remember: Do not repeat facts from your resume. This should be a unique document. If you repeat facts, you’ll lose interest of your readers. You want both your documents to be read top to bottom. Quantify whenever possible. Do you have 8 years of experience in the field? Have you saved an employer a significant amount of money with a process improvement or change of vendor? Weave your quantifiables into your stories, don’t just leave them hanging. Next time you are faced with a cover letter to write, get excited about the potential stories you can tell. Make it personal and let your motivation and values take center stage through compelling stories and numbers. It’s time to let people know about the genius of you! If this is the job you want, you owe it to yourself to do everything in your power to be noticed. Your job is to impress, so get to work!
