“Success doesn’t always look like you think it will.”
That’s what I heard my client say. She had just spent 10 minutes telling me how her business was taking over her life. She had the clients, she had the work, but she didn’t have the profit—or the peace—she thought she’d feel by now.
“I’m working harder than ever,” she said, in tears. “But I feel like I’m spinning my wheels. Is this really what success is supposed to look like?”
That question is one I’ve heard over and over again from business owners. If you’ve ever felt like my client—stuck, exhausted, and wondering what went wrong—then you’re in the right place. Let me show you what a successful, profitable business really looks like and how you can get there using the Pumpkin Plan Action Guide.
The Busy Trap
When I started my business, I thought success meant doing it all. Every client who came my way got a “yes.” Every request for a service I didn’t yet offer became a new item on my to-do list. I was busy, and busy meant successful, right?
Wrong....
Being busy is a trap. The Pumpkin Plan calls it “planting too many seeds.” When you’re trying to do too much, you’re spreading your energy and resources too thin. Your efforts are divided, and nothing grows like it should—not your profits, not your peace, and certainly not your joy.
The moment I stopped trying to do it all and started focusing on what really mattered, my business transformed. And that’s where your journey to a successful, profitable business begins.
What Success Really Looks Like
A successful business isn’t about endless hustle or long hours. It’s about clarity, focus, and intentional growth. The Pumpkin Plan gives us a blueprint for this:
1️⃣ Identify Your Seed Clients: These are the clients who bring in the most profit and align with your values. They’re the ones you love working with and who love working with you.
2️⃣ Prune What’s Not Working: Just like a gardener prunes a pumpkin vine to help the best pumpkin grow, you need to prune the services, clients, or tasks that aren’t serving your business. It’s hard, but it’s necessary for real growth.
3️⃣ Focus on Growth: With the distractions gone, you can invest your time and energy into serving your seed clients and growing your business in a sustainable way.
What It Feels Like to Succeed
Imagine waking up in the morning excited to tackle your day. You’re working with clients who value you, offering services that align with your skills, and seeing the kind of profit that gives you room to breathe.
That’s what a successful business feels like. It’s not about chaos or burnout. It’s about confidence, clarity, and consistency.
