What to Invest In When Your Business Feels Stuck (A Gap Analysis for Coaches)
Business Not As Usual with Megan Yelaney
If your January motivation is already fading, or you’re realizing that doing more isn’t fixing what feels off in your business: this episode is for you. In this conversation, I’m walking you through the exact Gap Finder process I created for my private mastermind clients to help them identify what’s actually holding their business back (hint: it’s usually not what you think). Because most entrepreneurs don’t have a motivation problem. They have a misdiagnosed gap. You might think you need more leads, better sales skills, or a new platform, but the real issue is often buried...

In 2025 I Filled FOUR Offers While Publicly Marketing ONE (Why Selling Everything is Costing You Sales)
Business Not As Usual with Megan Yelaney
What if the reason your launches feel exhausting…isn’t how much you’re doing, but how fragmented your message has become? In this episode of Business Not As Usual, I’m pulling back the curtain on something I realized while prepping for my mastermind kickoff: 👉Last year, I filled four different offers but I only publicly marketed one message And honestly? It changed everything: from my energy, to my client results, to how demand shows up behind the scenes. In this episode, I walk you through: Why I stopped marketing multiple offers (and why it no longer works for most businesses) ...

Business Not As Usual with Megan Yelaney

info_outlineIf you think you need a perfectly curated calendar, a quiet house, or a stress-free season to pull off a profitable launch…this episode is going to feel like a warm, lovingly sarcastic slap of truth.
Because this week?
I moved.
My house was chaos.
My twins were wild.
My to-do list was feral.
And I still created $62,000 in sales behind the scenes…with zero sales calls.
In this episode, I’m taking you inside exactly how that happened, and how you can apply the same framework to your next launch, no matter what “life life-ing” season you’re in.
✨In this episode, we get into:
• The myth that you need a “perfect time” to launch
The only things you shouldn’t schedule a launch around are childbirth and your wedding. Everything else? Workable.
Why I treat launching as an ongoing awareness strategy (not a stressful event)
This ONE shift will remove 80% of your decision fatigue and end the “what should I post?” spiral.
What I focus on every week to stay consistent even in chaotic life seasons
Including how I decide where to send people, what I’m nurturing, and what’s “next” in my ecosystem.
The real reason your topics aren’t converting
It’s not your tactic. It’s not the algorithm. It’s your messaging (and yes, I lovingly call you out on this).
The 3 things every converting launch message needs:
-
What your ideal client says they want
-
Your distinctive perspective + lived story
-
A framework they’ve never tried before
Why tactics don’t matter nearly as much as everyone thinks
Webinars aren’t dead. Free events aren’t dead. Private podcasts aren’t dead. But bad messaging is.
How I filled half my mastermind behind the scenes with private invites
All DMs. Zero sales calls. Zero public promo. All intention, connection, and edge-led messaging.
How I’m managing moving, twin toddlers, business, workouts, mental health, and launching
You’ll hear the exact non-negotiables that keep me sane, grounded, and able to think straight even during peak chaos.
A personal story (and emotional reflection) about anxiety, pregnancy, and trusting the bigger picture
Because business and life are never separate, and the lesson applies to launching, too.
💡If you’re launching in 2026, you need this episode.
Not because it’s motivational (although you know I’ll drop a truth bomb or five)…but because I break down exactly why the message matters more than the tactic.
If you’ve struggled with launches this year, if your content feels scattered, or if you want to create revenue behind the scenes like a real CEO, this episode is your roadmap.
