FOCVS™ Snapshot
About Christine: Christine is a “Maker” with a product business for 17 years. Once she mastered the art of copywriting, she wanted use those skills to help people in her Maker community grow their businesses. But she was stuck with idea overwhelm. What was the right business model for her?
Her FOCVSed Work: Christine realized that money wasn’t her main motivator. She wanted to make a true impact on the Maker community. Once her focus shifted and felt aligned, she was able to quickly get clarity about next steps in her business.
Results: After realizing what she wanted out of her business, Christine was able to eliminate dozens of projects and tasks that didn’t align with her vision. She doubled down on what she loved, created a new website, and was able to truly make a difference in her business community.
I feel like I’m finally stepping out into what I was meant to do.”
Christine is a person who never lacks ideas — in fact, her biggest problem was too many ideas. After being a part of several programs and masterminds she found herself overwhelmed by the options — should she create a course? Do coaching? Focus on client work? Write more? Speak more?
Hear how Christine was feeling in her own words:
“At first I thought it was a money thing… but I realized doing it for the money wasn’t my thing.”
Christine originally set a goal to make 6-figures per year in her business, but quickly realized that making money alone wasn’t motivating her. This made it difficult to achieve her goal!
And without a clear, focused plan for how and why to make more money, she felt stuck.
That all changed when she had one key realization — her biggest goal was to help her community. That simple tweak in focus changed everything.

Although the FOCVS™ system was exactly what Christine was looking for, she was hesitant to join yet another program.
Would this work for her unique business situation?
Here’s what she discovered:
“There was no secrets”
Christine soon found that part of the reason other programs hadn’t worked for her was they were missing something. “Little hang-ups” along the way might start out minor, but become a source of tremendous frustration.
What she really needed was individualized help from a working freelancer who knew the ropes and could answer questions (no matter how small!).
Here’s what she discovered about “business secrets”:
I feel like a grown up in my business now!”
Finally clear about a path forward in her business, Christine is excited about what’s next! By gaining clarity about what her business is and what motivates her, she quickly revamped her website, started new networking efforts, and even put herself out there on podcasts and speaking gigs.
Here’s what’s next for Christine in 2021.
