Ep 349: When To Say No To A Business Opportunity + How To Do It Without Being Rude

In this episode I want to talk to you about why it's ok to say no to a business opportunity (especially when you've already said yes). Saying no can feel awkward for perfectionist business owners - we often think we need to follow through with an opportunity that isn't a good fit because we already said yes.

But there are times when an opportunity isn't right for you and your stage of business. When that happens, your growth will come from clearly saying no.

And you can do it without being rude and without drama.

Tune in to learn how to discern if a business opportunity is a good fit for you and practical advice on saying no without being rude. I also share helpful examples of times I've said no after saying yes in my business (and why I made that decision).

In This Episode You'll Learn:

Why it's ok to say no to an opportunity or request after you've already said yes
How to say no without being rude
How to discern whether your growth is saying no or continuing to be a yes
Times in my business where I've said no after saying yes and why I did it
