Most new CEOs spend their first month obsessing over branding, over-posting, and filler content.
Yet still feel like they aren’t moving forward. It’s not about what you do, it’s about doing the right things.
Around 21.5% of U.S. businesses fail in the first year, and nearly 50% close by year five according to Lending Tree.
Many of these failures stem from lack of clarity, focus, and systems .
This guide shows you exactly what to do in those first 30 days to actually launch, without the headache.
Lay the groundwork today, before planning, social, or scaling.
Day 1: Define Your Version of Success
Prompt: “In 30 days, I want my business to feel like…”
Anchor your decisions in what matters to you, not someone else’s vision.
Day 2: Choose One Thing You Could Sell
Prompt: “What can I sell this month with what I already know or have?”
Options could include a $17 download, a custom mug, or a short digital guide.
Your Starter Kit includes a simple framework to choose smartly.
Day 3: Set Up Your Digital HQ
Start a free Notion workspace to plan and track
Launch an email list with MailerLite
Create a simple landing page or link-in-bio payment link
Email is powerful, businesses earn $36 for every $1 spent via email marketing.
