While many 19-year-old high school graduates were busy chasing one fad or the other, Alfred Nickson was getting started with his first business. The 28-year old entrepreneur is a successful network marketer, public speaker, success coach, and financial expert.
He has a set of values that he has practiced judiciously over his 9-year career. Implementing these values, as you start and scale your businesses, will help you grow astronomically.
Prioritizing Self-Care
Many young entrepreneurs believe they need to work themselves into the ground to become successful. Being passionate about your business is a good thing, but you need to constantly make time to look after yourself.
Value Your Customer
Doing business is beyond a title or multiple figure product launches. The most successful businesses are the ones that are able to completely satisfy customers. If you want to build a successful and sustainable business, you need to focus on the value you bring to your customers. Your business should be designed to bridge a specific gap in the market.
“The most rewarding thing about my profession is the lives I am able to change! I get gratitude when pushing people to their limits and bringing out their absolute best! My childhood played a huge role in that. I had to be strong and overcome so many obstacles. That’s why my clients love our program because I’m authentic I speak from the heart and experience. The fruits of my labor show that it’s worth it to never give up.”
Alfred aims to give his clients everything they need on their road to financial freedom.
“ I wouldn’t call myself a life coach or a motivational coach, I am a “seven-figure wealth coach.” While I do motivate and inspire, I really show my clients and team how they can create multiple streams of income. ”
Invest in Your Growth
A great way to aid your growth is to invest in mentorship and coaching. Follow the teachings of those who have achieved everything you seek.
“I’ve had several mentors on my entrepreneurial journey. Not only do I think it’s important I believe, but you must also have a mentor that knows the way and that is willing to show you the way along your journey,” Alfred says.
Mentorship can also show you your passion and expose you to more opportunities, just like it happened with Alfred.
“That is where my passion for coaching and mentoring comes from — giving people a head start, helping them navigate the pitfalls and giving them an edge in such a competitive marketplace. My mentors were instrumental in helping me create a seven-plus figure business and I would advise anyone who is looking to become an entrepreneur, create multiple streams of income or start a business to create a tight group of mentors they can rely on.”
