Nikisha:

Hello, gorgeous Welcome. And today we have Megan Wing. This is a good friend of mine. Megan's so amazing in doing business workflows and what I mean amazing. She is just so good at this whole process and we're gonna have her speak a little bit more about some actionable steps but really small actionable steps in figuring out burnout, and this is part of the burnout series. So welcome Megan Wing. Megan hi, thanks for joining us today.

Megan:

Thank you so much for having me. I'm so glad to be here.

Nikisha:

Listen, I'm happy to have you here because you're one of the coaches that you are so in need, because there's so many people who have businesses. But the reason I believe they're getting burnout is because they feel like there's so much to do and they're always doing the same thing repetitively every day, without creating a process or a system that helps them kind of automate and we're gonna get into this word automate, because when I say it, people always think that means put everything on automatic and let it run by itself without you, and that is not what that means. So let's start off with what you do. One of the things you do that I truly enjoy is how you manage your calendar, so share with us why is that even important and how you do it.

Megan:

Well, one of the things. So the reason why I founded my whole business six figure systems is literally because I realized that during my work day, I was spending 80% of my time on the back end of my business doing things like marketing and bringing in leads and planning, and I really wanted to be, and really it was like 20% of my work week I was spending doing what I actually loved, which is coaching people and providing so whatever service you provide, that I found with most solo partners that you get into your business because you want to focus on serving your people in whatever way. You are uniquely gifted and talented, and what I found is that a lot of people are spending all of this time on the back end stuff that they don't really like.

Nikisha:

So what I?

Megan:

did, is. I created a way so that they can do all of that work in less time and focus more on serving people and bringing in more income with their business.

Nikisha:

That's so true because, even though we're part of the coaching world, I'm also part of the event industry and a lot of my creatives. The first thing they usually tell you is I hate the business side because you're creatives. But in reality, they love working on the creative side because that's how they serve their clients and it's this thing that so many people dislike. They hate so many adjectives I can use for that, but it's the thing that helps you get organized, so it has relevance, it has importance. All right now, share with me what you did. What did you find helpful?

Megan:

So when I was looking at my business, I wanted to spend way more of my time actually coaching people and actually helping them.

Megan:

So one of the things that I did is I looked at my work week and I thought about the things that I was doing during the day and I realized that, like I was just being really inefficient, if that makes sense.

Megan:

I was just not using my time well, and I would look at my workday and all the things that I thought I needed to accomplish and I felt like if I did something like writing a post, if I had that as like a task in my workday, that it would get done. But what I and it did, but it took so long and it was just like things like bringing in leads and things like that. It was like all these things that I was doing during my workday. I had broken it apart in ways that I thought made sense, but it really didn't, and so I had to take a look at my workday and be like okay, if I want to get more efficient with these kind of things, how can I kind of like clump things together to make my business a lot easier? And running a business really is easy? I just think that we segment it in ways that don't serve us, and that's like one of the first things that I did to make my business function a lot easier, you know.

Nikisha:

I'm so excited because I want to hear what you did. I don't know who. Whoever's listening, I know they're like well, what did you do?

Megan:

Yes, and so here's the thing that I realized is, when you're thinking about a business like a larger business, there are so many roles within that company to make that business go. So if you think about, let's say, even something that's like a large business, like Spanx or something like that, like I know, that's like a cool organization, and within that company you have the CEO. That is the visionary. They are focusing on how to move the business forward. They're seeing the longterm effects of the business. There's also people like a CFO, who is a chief financial officer that is focusing on how to do the finances of the company, making sure things are working there, and then you have a CMO, which is the chief marketing officer.

Megan:

And they're focusing on creating the content, seeing the big scope and scale of the things that they're doing within their business, and what we don't realize is, as solopreneurs and I know some of your people are just entrepreneurs that might have other people working with them, but when you're first starting out, it's just you and you're wearing all of the hats of every single role in a company by yourself. So what I found really helpful is breaking apart the different roles and kind of creating a persona for each role so.

Megan:

I can make my day easier and I was like I know that we are talking about batching and things like that, so that I think would be a good example for your people, but let me know what you think.

Nikisha:

No, give me more because, say, for marketing, social media is something a lot of people cannot get comfortable with. Yet that feels a little bit like I'm trying but it's still friction, still have that I posed today. Oh I'm so happy, but the whole next week I'm gone. I'm like nah, I don't have the energy to do that. Share with me what that would look like with your persona. How do you batch that and what do you do.

Megan:

Yeah, so one of the things that I realized is that when I was doing my marketing and let's say I had a chunk of time in my calendar, if I said, get one post done, if that was the result I wanted to create within an hour, I want you to think about all of the roles that creating a post actually entails. So there is like the CMO, if you think about that, this chief marketing officer that's looking at the whole company. How do we want to communicate our message to the people about what we do? So you have to think about okay, what message do I want to communicate? Then you have to choose a topic that relates to a core piece of your business Then. So it's like that's one role. Then the next role if you're trying to do this in one hour, would be okay.

Megan:

I need to film. So I need to be a content creator. So let's say you're going to record a reel or something. That is a separate role in a different company. Like, if you think about it, they have content creators. They're actually paying people that are like videographers, all those kinds of things, to cut and make the content look pretty Separate thing entirely. Then you also have a copywriting team that's actually writing the copy and making the copy sound really eloquent and good for your people so that it really resonates with your audience.

Megan:

You have a graphic designer that actually makes the graphics of the post, and then you might have a virtual assistant or an assistant that's actually doing the posting.

Nikisha:

Yes.

Megan:

But you're trying to do all that in one hour and it's not working. It was like it's hard. I bet it is very hard.

Nikisha:

I love it is this is so good?

Megan:

It makes sense, right, it does. So, of course, your brain is tired when you're trying to think about batching content. You're like, oh my God, I'm going to have to do what I'm trying to do in one hour and it ends up taking it even if it does. If you figure out how to do, which is what I figured out, I figured out how to do my post in an hour, but it was exhausting, and so the brain, because my brain was figuring out all these different roles and responsibilities and I was switching different hats in such a short period of time. It took way too much of my energy.

Nikisha:

Right.

Megan:

So what you have to do is what I like to do is batch my content out. So when I talk about batching, it's different than I think. What people think the way I like to structure it is I like to focus on each role and responsibility within the batching time. So when I talk about writing six, doing all of my content in six hours for the entire month, what I mean by that is I take 30 minutes to be the CMO.

Nikisha:

Visionary.

Megan:

And look at the whole month. What do I want to convey within the whole scope of my year? How is this contributing to that? And get all the topics all lined up. Then I like to switch to the content creator and within the next two-ish hours, that's where I like to just film the videos. And I'll like change different shirts and I'll just like have a pile of shirts ready and I'm like, okay, I'm gonna be talking about how to generate 2,500 leads within an hour, and so I do that next. So then I'll like look at the post and as I change clothes, I'm thinking about it. I'm like, how could I make a video for this? And then I film all the videos. And I do that within like one to two hours For the whole month.

Nikisha:

So good.

Megan:

And then each week within those next three hours. That's when I become the copywriter. So then for an hour on Friday I look at the next week's posts. I get all the copy written and I'm like, oh, here's what I want to do for the copy. And I do that for all the posts for the week, at first within like 30 minutes, and then I make the graphics in the next 30 minutes, but again I'm wearing one hat at a time.

Megan:

Right, that's why it's so quick. So that's why I'm able to produce a lot of I wouldn't even say it's a lot of content, but the level of my content is its quality in a very short period of time. Right and that's one of the things I think is really important as well, so that is why I think that batching is really helpful. If you're finding that in your day, marketing is taking a long time, probably because you're doing too many roles at one time.

Nikisha:

And you're right about that, because you don't see it. A lot of people may not break it down the way you did in regards to CMO right, getting the idea of what we're promoting, what's the messaging, and then actually having the caption, copy, the graphic, the content. They don't see it that way. So when people usually feel that burnout of doing social media, they don't even recognize that they're doing several different roles in that hour. So I love that you broke it down. Now, when you were mentioning 30 minutes, two hours, is it the same week or the six hours you spread out for the whole month, like you might do week one, you might add an hour there, like a Monday, and then Tuesday you might have another hour where you might be doing a lot of the content creating. Is that how you're doing it, where you break it out?

Megan:

That's a great question. So I have a monthly checklist, which this is part of my monthly checklist in that two hour of batching and topic, I guess, funneling for those ideas. I do all of that on the first Friday of the month. Just that, two hours of batching and video creation, that's what I do, and then each Friday following that's where I do the hour.

Nikisha:

Got it, so that's such a good one. So you have days that you feel like you work on company stuff and days you coach.

Megan:

All Fridays I'm my admin days.

Megan:

So, if and it for a lot of people if you do have a full time job. I still made a priority to like kind of switch one of the days. So I used to be an elementary school teacher and I got certified as a coach while I was teaching, while I was coaching clients all within that same time period. So I figured out in order to replace my teaching salary I needed to get six clients. So I did them two on Monday, two on Tuesday, two on Wednesday, and then Thursday was the day I did. Admin.

Nikisha:

Got it, got it. That's what you did. That's so good. And then this is the part that I want everyone to understand when you do admin day, do you try to crunch everything in it, like CFO, cmo, ceo, or you're like no?

Megan:

I actually for me at this stage because I am full time. It does actually work that way.

Nikisha:

Tell me, how that Friday looks then.

Megan:

That Friday I have a checklist, so I know I'm like this task will take this amount of time. So for me, every first Friday of the month, that's my big admin day and that is where I'll like take that two hours to do admin or to do marketing, and then I will take an hour to do my financial projections and do my finances and things like that. But it is switching the role every single time and then to be the CEO and like doing the planning and thinking about that, and I also replan my week at the beginning of each week, so I'm not replanting every single day. What am I going to do? It's at the beginning. It's kind of like a variation on day hour one.

Nikisha:

That's so good. Yeah, I love this. I love how your brain works, but that's part of your automatic brain. That's why you create bigger systems, so I love that. I love how you share the batch Now giving this information to our audience, and if they're like I want to do this, what is the best little, small, tiny step they can take to start this process and how can they build on it when they're ready to?

Megan:

So the biggest thing. There are two things that I would say. The first thing is that you want to do quality work over quantity. I think a lot of people see things like posting every day, even multiple times a day, and that's actually not proven to be true when you're thinking about creating content you want to be. I only do three posts, three types of posts, a week, right, except unless I'm doing a launch for, like, my mastermind or things like that. I only do three things a week.

Megan:

I focus on different parts of my audience the people who don't know me yet, which I call the cold people. The people who are know me, but they need to get to know me a little bit better. So that's called my warm audience. And then my hot audience. People are ready to buy and that's where I post testimonials. So I do one of those a week and it makes it a lot easier.

Megan:

So I would say, focus on doing a small amount of people. Focus on not small amount of people, a small amount of posts. Make sure that they are quality over quantity. And I would say for you today, as the listener, something that I have found is that when it comes down to batch ideas, you might have a ton of ideas throughout the week when you're working with people. You might have an idea as you're in the shower. You might have an idea as you are driving. So my best advice to you is to create a list of topics so when you go to do, if you would like to do batching, you have a huge list that's already ready for you to go and you can just pull ideas and remember what you said during the other times of the month when you weren't batching.

Nikisha:

Right, exactly, so for one of the things you can use if you have an Apple phone, if you have a Google, you might have it too I usually ask my Siri to open up the memo app and I would record and just if I'm driving, if I'm walking, so that I'm not using my hands or need to. But that's a way you can use that tactic, so, wherever you are, you can record that side note or idea you have. Sometimes people use their notes app and that's good, but that's when you have your hands available to you and sometimes, when you're driving or you're in the shower because I'm in my shower, sometimes my phone's on the sink I usually yell out hey, siri, you know, until a command, write this or open my memo.

Nikisha:

So, yeah, just in case anyone's thinking. You know I'm just going to give you a little bit of idea if you're in there. So thank you for that tip. In regards to batching, which I love, and how to keep it simple and structuring your day and when you're doing your coaching Monday, tuesday, wednesday and you're doing that process for our wedding clients or any business professional, it doesn't matter because there's a day you're doing client work, how does your client work days look? How do you batch them? Do you have any process in that?

Megan:

Oh yeah, so when I'm doing my client focus days, so I have one-on-one clients that I work with and I do them Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and then I have my mastermind. I have two rounds of that on Tuesday, and so when I'm working with my clients, I find that having a routine around that. So I also the reason why I think I'm pretty good at creating systems is I have ADHD. So if I did not have these systems, I would not get things done. And routine is extremely helpful for human brains to function at their optimal pace, especially for those of us that are neurodivergent badass humans.

Megan:

And one of the things that I like to do is when I'm working with my clients, I do have a flow, so I will. If they're one-on-one clients, I have them. Like I will have a certain flow. So for your wedding clients, like almost having a procedure, a protocol, that you go with them as you work with them and you'll start to notice trends in similar things with people. So, like when I'm coaching people, it's like we start with their wins, we start with an eval, then we get into coaching, then I give them they'll say their breakthroughs, what their implementation goal is before the next week, and then we rank and evaluate the pillars of their business Within like, even like, a wedding planning situation. I'm assuming there is probably a system to planning weddings.

Nikisha:

Oh, there is. Every one of us. Every discipline has one. They think it's different, but it usually isn't. But they don't know it's the same because they don't interact. So, a planner, a stationer, a photographer, it doesn't matter the discipline, it's just business. Yeah, business systems period, and go ahead, because what you're saying, it would work anywhere.

Megan:

Literally anywhere.

Megan:

I think you just think about it.

Megan:

It's like you probably do some sort of intake with their client and then you, let's say, if you're a photographer or something like that, you schedule a time to take the pictures.

Megan:

You maybe meet with the client beforehand, you take the pictures, you edit the pictures, you send the pictures, you get the feedback and then you send final copies or something like that. But if you can segment, if you know that that's the protocol every single time I get a client, I do this, and then you can start to track for, like, wedding planning, anything like that, you can start to track the time it takes for you to do each piece of the process. So you can think about okay, how long does it usually take for me to edit photos, how long does it typically take for me to take pictures, and then you can figure out okay, if this is what my work week looks like, I can take on X amount of clients, and then you can actually schedule blocks with those mini protocols underneath each part of the procedure, and it makes it just so much easier for your clients to get the results that you're thinking and it also makes it a lot easier on your end to deliver.

Nikisha:

Now what I'm gonna ask you? Because even when you share this, this is information that's shared, and there's so many moments when I think, yes, this is really good information, but there's a reason. People are not doing it right and half of the time they're not doing it because they feel like it's too much, it's overwhelming, and they're like, oh my God, they're gonna burn out because now they gotta manage the client and now create a system, because remember you said it, when you're an entrepreneur or a solopreneur, you are the only person doing all of these roles.

Nikisha:

So, they automatically go to that thought and, as coaches, we know what how the T line looks like. Oh my God, right Like I have to do all of this by myself, and that leads to that overwhelming feeling. My question to you is, in regards to them systemizing how do they even get started? What is that? One thing that they can literally go? I'm just gonna do this for like three or four weeks, just for a month, consistently nothing else.

Megan:

Okay, so loaded question and I'm like within systems in your business, the reason why just taking a minute to figure out time in your workday is worth it is it's gonna save you time in the long run. So in these systems like they really do not take a long period of time, it just makes your life so much easier in the long run. So if someone was like I really want to create systems for my business and I don't know where to start, what I would do is I would do an audit, a time audit, and I would think about what is the activity that is causing the most Time though it's taking the most time and what is the most draining activity. The reason why marketing was the first system I made is because I hated marketing. Yeah, I was like it was the worst. I was like and I knew that I had to do it in order to communicate with my audience. I knew I had to constrain it down to something that was easy to manage, to manage, and I knew I needed to be consistent, like those are the aspects that you, if you are trying to scale a business and grow a business, those are the things that you need to do. They're the essential pieces of it. So I was thinking about okay, what is the thing that is the least consistent, that is taking a lot of time, and how can I make it into something that's a lot more easy to manage?

Megan:

So again for marketing, it's like, if that is taking a lot of time, figure how much time it's taking you and Like, even if you are working, like you can do this, like driving as you're listening to this podcast, be like okay, what is the thing that is causing the most strain in my work day, in my work week, when I'm doing the back end of my business, and what can I do to make it a little bit easier?

Megan:

Why is it so difficult for me to do this thing and how can I Make this more efficient and easier? So, like again, like what I said, it was like okay, I only want to post three times a week. I want to make it very simple. I'm like that I think I can do consistently for sure, even if I'm traveling, even if I'm going and doing all these things. I was like that that I could do in one of them the testimonial anyways. So it's really only two posts for me to do a week. Right, and when I was able to make it a lot I mean when I was able to simplify that process it really changed the way that my work week looked and I was able to just take on more clients, which helped me to make more money, and it was like, oh, this is worth it.

Nikisha:

It is, and then when you make more, you can invest in having someone help you with these systems. But now you have it in place so it's easier to transfer it because you know how it it goes right and I I love that you said it's. It's important. It takes time to do it up front, but it saves you so much time.

Nikisha:

A lot of Professionals go oh, this is just time wasting, this is just too much time, and they don't do the work, the initial investment, so they can reap the benefits.

Nikisha:

And if you actually just took that time and made a simple process, after that it gets easier and it's like, oh, you don't have to spend four or five months doing the thing you don't really like doing because it takes so much time from you. And it's just that one thing you want a lot of people to get, because the investment and a lot of we see this a lot of ways, because even a business, when you start it, it takes five years to actually start making a profit. The first five years is where you're investing and you're losing because you're investing so much time. But that's when you're creating the system, that's when you're learning what's your messaging, how to position your business. That is the foundational part. So everything you're teaching is the foundation, so that when people start to show up and Serve, it's easier for them to do that, because they've already taken care of the back end. After that is just management.

Megan:

Mm-hmm and I want to offer so you, but where that within my business? My first like it was like the 2020. I was like I worked in my business for like three months and I didn't make a profit. My Second year I was part-time and I like was like three K in the red right but I have not. I have made a profit my first year of business, full-time, and every year since.

Megan:

Right, it was like the work, because if you make the systems, then you can take on more clients you can make. That's why it's worth it to like and For anybody that's listening, one of the things that I do if there's anything that feels like it's a new thing, something new that comes up like a webinar or for me.

Megan:

I just learned how to launch a group coaching program, so I make a system for it and I'm just like and it's literally a system fun fact, guys, it is a Google doc that I'm like I did this, I did this, I did this and I did this. And it's just like I Listed out. It's so simple, it takes like two seconds. But then when you've got that, then you go and you say how long it took you and I'm like okay, like, for instance, for a webinar, if I'm doing a webinar, I have a protocol and a checklist that I go through and I'm like okay, first I need to make a script. Second, I need to choose the date. Third, I need to include my website. Fourth, I need to reach out to my engagement list. Done. Then it's like that's what I do a month before, then the week before I, or, if I analyze the slides, also a month before, and then the week before I Changed the pop-up on my website. And I do all of this by myself, by the way.

Megan:

And I still have until August is. That was my first hire, but it was like, literally, it was like I would change the pop-up myself, I would create the email sequence, I would invite people to join. I'm like would do all that the week before right and then the week after I have a protocol.

Megan:

So your brain is already doing those things. It just helps you to write it down and it go through and check it off and it just like it's okay. You know what I mean and that saves them so much time. But I think that's the reason why I've been so profitable so quickly and I have no business experience. Like I was a teacher I did pre-med before this Like it's, like there's not really. Like I didn't know how to market, didn't know how to sell. I had to learn all that and invest in people to teach me how to do that stuff. But there is no. If I could figure this out and I was an elementary school teacher I know that you guys can too, for sure so true, it's so true.

Nikisha:

It just takes that I can do it mentality and investing the time in it. Yeah, and if people stop saying I don't have time, right, if we just sit down and take a couple minutes to Create what that would look like. That's how it works, because I think that's the challenge. We feel like we don't have time, but I think a lot of our time is misused. And then I know, when I say that, I know people are like now I'm here, I'm doing, yes, but you're, you're doing that CMO thing, you're trying to do all five rows and what in one hour is like let's, let's sit down and create a plan and literally we can two hours for like the next four weeks. Then you can get so much further. But you have to be open and willing.

Nikisha:

So I hope for 2024 and the years to follow and as you listen to this podcast, I hope there's something inside of you that goes. You know what? I'm gonna be honest with myself. I can be honest with myself. I don't take that much time to plan, but if I did, I can get so much further than where I am today. And if you have that thought, that thought can actually allow you to open up to the possibility of trying this out. Right, and that's sometimes all you need is the evidence. If you do it and you try it, there might be a shift and you might oh, this doesn't hurt so bad, mm-hmm, right, and then you can actually reap the benefits of that every.

Nikisha:

Oh yeah, everything we do has a return, but it depends on how we do it. Just like stocks, just like that versus fine. They're just so many things. It's just normal behavior. Every action creates a reaction, so what type of reaction do you want? And that's how your action is right, so I love that. I will like you to share a little bit more of your business, how people can get in touch with you, and we will have this in the show notes as well.

Megan:

My gosh, of course. So I would love if you guys I feel like I just don't want you guys to keep overworking, because it's like I see it and it breaks my heart. I'm like, please stop overworking. So, if you're ready to stop overworking and those kind of things and just like, take some time, make some quick systems, I have a program called six figure systems. We're in that program. You work with me.

Megan:

In the first session that we have, we take a whole look at your business and, literally, in that first session, whether you're in my mastermind or if you work with me one-on-one, we go and we figure out your positioning and figure out, okay, what does this business look like overall? And I call it your core pillars. So we figure out, okay, in one hour we will have the whole structure of your business for the foundation of what your business is doing and how you're going to position yourself In your marketing, in your sales, and how you're delivering to your clients. And then, within the next four weeks, we figure out how to optimize Different pieces of the front end of your business. So we figure out how to really make your marketing so much easier. I'm gonna teach you how to make a content calendar, of course, and then I teach you how to generate more leads. So I want to make that really easy. So it's just like this 30 minute a day activity where I teach you how to engage properly in the next week.

Megan:

I talked to you about how to increase your conversion rate on sales Because I think that it should be way higher for so many people I work with that. I'm like this is a system that you can even use in your sales calls. That makes it your conversion rate go way higher and Helps you communicate better. And then I also teach you how to plan again in a very short period of time an hour a week to evaluate Really figure out where, what your numbers are, and then plan for the following week. So within that, you will have an eight hour work week completely set up within a month, and I just like make sure that people get that done. But then, of course, as soon as that happens. The reason why my program is six months is I have people, then we customize, and They'll either adopt my systems completely they will adapt it to fit their businesses needs, or will abandon it and figure out a new system that works better for their business and like.

Megan:

Getting that scaling ready. So that's what six figure systems is super fun.

Nikisha:

Oh good, I know, for us it's super fun for someone who's like, oh my gosh, but that's the whole point of hiring you, having the accountability, having the guidance, having it already provided to you and it's in your program. Do you feel like it's a done for you or done with you? Tell me more about how that looks hundred percent.

Megan:

So with even within even my mastermind, you will get within the calls. You get all the systems customized on the call so you don't have to take any time outside of the program. I teach with one-on-one and in my group I didn't. I know how I am and I invested in so many programs and I'm like, yeah, I'll get to that training.

Megan:

See you never do, yeah, never do and I was like that is not gonna be what six Systems like. So I made it so that all of the learning occurs within the program. You will get all those systems done with you and created for you within the program and then literally like. All you have to do is apply. You just have to like. Like I can't physically Record your voice and make the content, I can get close, I can write it with you and we can get ready.

Nikisha:

Hey, that's all you do is take that time. It works and it works and it should be, because, remember, it's six months with you. Yes, they can buy repetitively. It'll be amazing. But if they couldn't, they know how to do it on their own. They become self-sufficient with your knowledge that you're giving to them all of the value you're bringing to their company. So I love it and I can't wait, because I know I'm.

Nikisha:

I know I'm doing it. That's not even a question for me, because I love how your brain works, but your brain and not my brain are very similar. Mm-hmm, I love how it works and if they want to find you, what's a good way for them to connect with you?
