Make It Matter

S
omewhere between your first sale and your fifth offer, things start to feel off.Not broken. Just… off.
You’re still showing up. You’ve done the worksheets, written the emails, built the sales page (twice). You’ve posted. Maybe you’ve even sold a few. But the momentum you imagined isn’t there. And now you’re wondering what every business owner eventually asks:
“Does this even matter?”
It’s a fair question.
When your offer isn’t working the way you hoped, the usual advice gets loud. Add urgency. Do a launch event. Raise your prices. Lower your prices. Niche harder. Rewrite everything. Burn it all down and start again.
It’s a lot.
But here’s what I think: before you blow it all up, check your alignment.
Not your mindset. Not your messaging. Just… alignment.
As in:
Is this offer something you’d be excited to deliver right now?
Would you recommend it to someone you care about?
Does it still matter to you?
Because if the answer is no, no, and kind of—not only is that okay, it’s the exact information you need.
This is where we stop spinning and get real.
Not every offer is meant to last forever.
Not every idea turns into a flagship.
And not everything you launch will feel good six months later—especially if it was built from pressure, people-pleasing, or pure survival mode.
If you’re in the messy middle, chances are high you created something back when you didn’t know what you know now. You’ve grown. Your audience has evolved. Your values have clarified. But your offer? It’s still trying to run on old energy.
That doesn’t mean you failed.
It means it’s time to ask the only question that matters:
Does this still serve the person I am now—and the people I want to help?
If the answer is yes, beautiful. Now you can look at the marketing, the language, the positioning, and adjust as needed.
But if the answer is no—or maybe—it’s time to pause. Not to panic.
To reevaluate. Realign. Quietly.
You don’t have to burn it down. You also don’t have to push harder.
You just have to make it matter again.
That might look like:
- Letting an offer go (without a dramatic post about “shifting directions”)
- Refreshing your language, so it actually reflects what you do
- Reworking your process to match your energy now—not the version of you from a year ago
- Start saying the quiet part a bit louder: this is who I help, and this is how
I know it feels risky to step back when things aren’t working. But what’s riskier is continuing to build on something that’s quietly draining you. The longer you ignore the misalignment, the louder the burnout gets.
You don’t need more strategies; you need more clarity. That is what will keep you moving forward.
So, here’s your invitation to:
👉🏻Pull your offer out of the fog this week.
👉🏻Ask what’s still working.
👉🏻Ask what needs to change.
👉🏻And above all—ask what still matters.
If you’re not sure how to answer that..
