We believe a "boring-ish" business is the right mix of exciting and fun paired with repeatability and sustainability.

It's all about striking a balance between the predictably boring and the thrillingly unorthodox in your business strategy.

Let's break it down!

Why A Successful Business Should Be Boring AND Un-Boring

🥱  When we talk about the "boring" side of business, we mean the good kind of boring. This includes factors like predictable cash flow, repeatable systems, sustainable routines, and an absence of unnecessary drama. It's the foundation that keeps your business stable. 🦄  On the flip side, "unboring" business elements inject fun, excitement, and a dash of risk. This includes creativity, novelty, experiments, and unique approaches to common business concepts. Un-boring is the spark that keeps your business exciting!

Boring vs Un-Boring Business

 

Finding the "boring-ish" balance creates a calm business

The goal is to achieve a harmonious blend of boring and un-boring, creating what we call "boring-ish" business. Think of it like a unicorn accountant—crunching numbers but doing it on their terms, adding a touch of flair to the otherwise routine task.

Now that you understand the concept, let's explore how to apply a boring-ish framework to your own business!

🥱  Boring Business Focuses

  • Streamline and organize your offers: Consider a signature offer or a well-structured value ladder.

  • Prioritize consistency and sustainability in your business routines.

  • Project and track your income and cash flow for a smoother financial journey.

  • Systematize your processes to make tasks repeatable and efficient.

🦄  Un-Boring Business Focuses

  • Dare to be different! Choose unconventional approaches where others play it safe.

  • Infuse your brand with things you love, making it uniquely yours.

  • Regularly brainstorm "what if, why not" ideas to add excitement and novelty.

  • Gamify accountability or any part of your business that could use a fun twist.

Boring-ish Business Tips

 

Incorporating the "boring-ish" philosophy into your business can lead to a harmonious blend of stability and excitement.

By carefully balancing predictability and novelty, you can create a unique business that stands out while maintaining a solid foundation.

Embrace the "boring-ish" mindset and take your business to new heights!
