Why Being “Consistent” Is Not Enough to Grow Your Business - Episode 185

Consistency alone won’t move the needle if your actions aren’t aligned with what actually works.   In this episode, May Yeo Silvers unpacks why so many business owners, especially in the events industry, get frustrated when their consistent efforts don’t lead to growth. Are you showing up every week on social media but not seeing engagement? Are you attending networking events without landing new clients? May shares why that happens and what to do about it. She walks through how to evaluate what’s working, where your audience is paying attention, and how to shift your strategy without abandoning your discipline. The habit of showing up stays the same but the way you do it needs to evolve. If you’ve been wondering why your consistency hasn’t paid off, this episode has the answer!   Quotes • “So you would think that because I’m posting consistently, I should have a steady growth in the number of followers, correct?... No.” (03:36 | May Yeo Silvers) • “You need to make sure that your consistency is put into the best use, creating the biggest impact.” (05:12 | May Yeo Silvers) • “Do not change your consistency. You are still going to be consistently taking actions, but you are going to change what actions you are taking and executing in order to yield better results.” (06:18 | May Yeo Silvers) • “Interestingly, posts that talk about mindset have the least engagement. That means the audience that I'm attracting are still not focusing or understanding how important mindset is… They have not yet connected the fact that after you learn the ‘what’ and the ‘how,’ the thing that is gonna help you be consistent to execute the ‘what’ and the ‘how’ is the mindset.” (07:44 | May Yeo Silvers) • “What is the difference between showing up consistently and showing up consistently doing what you need to do at that stage of your business?” (11:10 | May Yeo Silvers)   Links Don't feel bad if you feel that your consistency has gone to “waste.” Being able to stay consistent is a HUGE strength and positive attribute that every entrepreneur needs.    Now that you have mastered the difficult part, the easy part is tweaking the actual actions you need to take and stay consistent taking the “newly improved” actions.
