Ep 79: You Better Ask Somebody! The Secret Skill Every New Business Owner Needs
Are you sitting on a business idea or struggling to grow the one you’ve started? It might be because you're not asking enough—or not asking the right things.
In this episode of the Monetize Your Ministry Podcast, Kymone breaks down one of the most overlooked skills in business: the ability to ask. Whether you're starting out or scaling up, learning to ask for the right things at the right time can unlock your next level of clarity, opportunity, and income.
You’ll learn:
✔ How asking can fast-track your clarity and momentum
✔ Who to ask when you're stuck or uncertain
✔ Why asking for the sale is an act of service—not pressure
✔ The real reason you're not growing (and how to fix it)
🔑 “One key to not sitting on your ideas too long is to work your ask muscle.”
🎯 If you’re tired of overthinking and ready to start moving, this episode is for you.
