QFF: Quick Fire Friday – Your 20-Minute Growth Powerhouse!

Welcome to Quick Fire Friday, the Grow A Small Business podcast series that is designed to deliver simple, focused and actionable insights and key takeaways in less than 20 minutes a week.

Every Friday, we bring you business owners and experts who share their top strategies for growing yourself, your team and your small business. Get ready for a dose of inspiration, one action you can implement and quotable quotes that will stick with you long after the episode ends!

In this episode of Quick Fire Friday, host Rob Cameron speaks with Joel Salomon, founder of SaLaurMor, a former hedge fund manager turned prosperity coach. Joel now helps spiritual entrepreneurs shift their limiting beliefs around money and implement strategies to grow their businesses. He shares the powerful story of helping a client triple her income and quit her job within 60 days. A key takeaway from the episode is the concept of "acting as if", where entrepreneurs start behaving like their future successful selves. Joel also emphasizes that mindset without strategy—and vice versa—won’t lead to lasting success. This episode is packed with practical tools to break through financial and visibility blocks.

Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners:

Shift Your Money Mindset: Joel emphasizes that most business owners carry limiting beliefs about money. To grow, you must replace thoughts like "I can’t afford it" with empowering beliefs of abundance and prosperity.

Act As If You’re Already Successful: Visualize your future business success and start making decisions from that mindset. Whether it’s interviewing a new team member or planning a big event, acting as if helps you attract what you want.

Charge What You’re Worth: Underpricing your services creates an imbalance. Joel encourages business owners to price according to the transformation they provide—because helping clients achieve their dreams is priceless.

Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for?

Align Strategy With Mindset: Having the right systems without a strong mindset—or vice versa—limits growth. Lasting success comes when belief and business strategy work hand-in-hand.

Embrace Sales and Marketing: Many entrepreneurs, especially in spiritual fields, shy away from selling. Joel stresses that selling is serving—and visibility is key to helping more people.

Tailor Your Business Strategy: Avoid cookie-cutter solutions. Joel’s approach is to work with each client individually, ensuring their strategies align with their personality, values, and goals.


One action small business owners can take:

According to Joel Salomon, one action small business owners can take is to "act as if" their business is already successful — whether that means visualizing higher revenue, drafting a future team structure, or planning a celebration for hitting big goals. By aligning their mindset and behavior with their desired outcome, they start attracting the results they want faster.
