This is not another productivity, hustle, and grind podcast. I literally want you to do less. Many of us are overwhelmed, frustrated, and need a break. The good news is that we can accomplish much more than now. Once we focus on the vital few, and prioritize things that make our lives and the lives of people around us better, we can “do more by doing less”. This podcast is funny, simple, and has real-world stories. The episodes alternate between my solo podcasts and guest podcasts. In the solo episodes I share stories and frameworks from my experience in coaching small business owners and my own entrepreneurship endeavors. Oh, and any other story that can get a laugh while sticking to the theme of the podcast😊 In the guest podcasts, I will bring on other entrepreneurs who will share their expertise and discuss their own methods for doing more by doing less. That’s it. Subscribe now so you don’t miss an episode and have fun listening while you drive, do the dishes, or mow the lawn!","last_synced_at":"2026-06-16T22:17:18.842914+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/do-more-by-doing-less-time-freedom-for-entrepreneurs-small-business-owners-and-solopreneurs-6570871"},"episode":{"title":"Narrow Down Your Products & Services","slug":"narrow-down-your-products-services","published_at":"2026-05-26T10:00:03+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/do-more-by-doing-less-time-freedom-for-entrepreneurs-small-business-owners-and-solopreneurs-6570871/narrow-down-your-products-services","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/do-more-by-doing-less-time-freedom-for-entrepreneurs-small-business-owners-and-solopreneurs-6570871","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/narrow-down-your-products-services--72069389","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72069389/narrow_down_your_products_service_offerings.mp3","summary":"Show Summary: In this episode, I explain why offering too many products or services can actually hurt your sales. Using examples from Netflix, a famous Columbia University study, and my time working with SERVPRO, I break down why confused customers rarely buy. The businesses that grow the fastest are usually the ones known for one or two simple things instead of twenty complicated options. Takeaways: • Too many choices create overwhelm and reduce sales. • Simplicity helps customers remember what you actually do. • Businesses grow faster when they focus on one or two core offers. • Packages and clear messaging outperform endless customization. • Attention does not always equal conversions. Action For You To Take: Write down every product or service you currently offer. Then circle the top one or two things you want to be known for or that generate the most revenue. Simplify your messaging around those first and introduce the rest later. What To Do Next: If you want help building time freedom while still growing your business, schedule a quick, non-sales, chat with me at yourcharlesalexander.com.","meta_description":"Show Summary: In this episode, I explain why offering too many products or services can actually hurt your sales.
