TOP 2% GLOBALLY RANKED BUSINESS PODCAST FOR CHRISTIANS WHO WANT TO START A SERVICE-BASED BUSINESS WHILE WORKING A 9-TO-5 Hi, I’m Chichi - Business Strategist, Implementation Coach, and a Jesus Follower. 🎙️ Welcome to the Start That Business Podcast—a faith-based business podcast for Christians working a 9-to-5 who feel called to more. Here, you’ll find the clarity, strategy, systems, and faith-led guidance you need to step boldly into your God-given calling to start a service-based business. If that resonates with you, you’re in the right place. I knew I was called to start a business, but I wrestled with a lack of clarity, self-doubt, and the fear of losing a stable income. That fear kept me stuck in my 9-to-5 longer than I should have until I traded it for faith and obedience. I left my job, built a multi–7-figure global logistics brand, and ran it for 13 years, serving thousands of customers worldwide. Now, I help other Christians working a 9-to-5 do the same. Your next assignment starts here, with someone who has lived the journey, navigated the transitions, endured the pressure, ridden the ups and downs, and stayed anchored in faith through it all. You don’t have to stay stuck in fear, doubt, or confusion. God has already equipped you to launch the business He placed in your heart. 🙏🏽 Inside this podcast, you’ll gain: ✨ Clarity on your business idea and focused direction ✨ A proven, practical launch plan ✨ The right business foundations ✨ A simple, aligned offer that honors your current season and capacity ✨ Sustainable systems that grow with you ✨ Confidence to launch your business without sacrificing your financial stability If you’re unfulfilled in a 9-to-5 job you’ve outgrown, overwhelmed by too many ideas, unsure where to start, or craving more time, freedom, income, and impact, you’re in the right place. 💡 It’s time to partner with God and step boldly into your calling to start that business. You know the one I’m talking about. Yes, that one you’ve been putting off for a long time. 👉 Next Steps: I invite you to work with me. 📅 Book a Free Discovery Call → https://fromjobtobusiness.com/ During the call, you’ll gain clarity on: ✨ The challenges stopping you from starting your service-based business ✨ The problems those challenges are creating and ✨ How to overcome them By the end of the call, you’ll have the clarity you need to take the next best step and confidently launch your service-based business while working your 9-to-5. 🚀

Hey Friend,
Welcome to the Start That Business Podcast, where Christians with a 9-to-5 get the clarity, strategy, and faith-first guidance they need to step boldly into their calling to start a service-based business without leaving their job yet.
In this episode, I am stepping into a guest host seat on the Gen Truth Podcast to share something that has shaped every area of my life, including my business. The Holy Spirit is not only your helper for spiritual growth. He is your helper for real, everyday challenges, and that includes the work you are building.
Anchored in Romans 8:26 to 27 NLT, I walk you through how the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness, and I open up about the areas where He has helped me personally. From the mental health struggles I carried when I was younger, to my marriage, to building healthy habits, to the strategies that keep me focused and productive in my business, I share the real moments where I asked for help, and He answered.
You will hear the story of how I first discovered the Holy Spirit as a child watching my mom, the strategy He gave me to get focused work done, and the simple practice I use to invite Him into any problem I am facing.
If you have ever felt stuck, uncertain, or overwhelmed, this conversation is your reminder that you are not alone. With the Holy Spirit, everything is figureoutable.
I pray this blesses you.

Hey Friend,
Welcome to the Start That Business Podcast, where Christians with a 9-to-5 get the clarity, strategy, and faith-first guidance they need to step boldly into their calling to start a service-based business without leaving their job yet.
In this episode, I sit down with Marc Haine, Customer and Employee Experience Strategist, bestselling author of Lights! Camera! Action!, and founder of Elite Headline Speakers, to talk about why extraordinary client experiences are never an accident; they are designed.
By the end of this episode, you will know how to create a client experience so intentional that your very first client remembers you, refers you, and comes back. We get into the small, nearly free moments that make a new client feel deeply cared for, and how taking care of the people around you is what ultimately takes care of your customers.
I pray this blesses you.

Hey Friend,

You launched. You did the hard work of getting your business off the ground. Now what? If you've found yourself back in perfecting mode, tweaking your website, adjusting your pricing, adding another system, this episode is your redirect.
After launch, there are only two things that move the needle: leads and sales. Everything else is secondary until you have paying clients. In this episode, we break down why leads and sales are your top two post-launch priorities, what lead-generating and sales-generating activities actually look like for a service-based business, and how to stay in motion even while working a full-time job.
By the end of this episode, you will know the two post-launch focus areas that drive revenue and keep your business moving forward long after launch day.
I pray this blesses you.

Hey Friend,
Welcome to the Start That Business Podcast, where Christians working a 9-to-5 get the clarity, strategy, and faith-first guidance they need to step boldly into their calling to start a service-based business without leaving their job yet.
If you're attracting leads but not converting them to clients, the problem might not be your offer; it might be what's happening (or not happening) between the opt-in and the sale. Your client experience doesn't begin at onboarding. It begins the moment someone says yes to your lead magnet.
In this episode, we walk through how to create a Lead Journey Map, a practical, intentional plan for how you serve every lead from the moment they enter your world to the moment they become a paying client. This is a how-to episode designed to help you stop losing leads and start stewarding them with purpose.
By the end of this episode, you will have a clear step-by-step process for building your own Lead Journey Map from scratch.
I pray this blesses you.

You can have the best service in your industry, but if the right people can't find you, you'll stay stuck, wondering why nobody's reaching out. Visibility isn't about going viral. It's about having a system that consistently puts you in front of the people who need what you offer.
In this episode, we break down the 4-part visibility system every service-based business needs to attract new clients even while working a 9-to-5.
By the end of this episode:
You’ll have a visibility blueprint that’s practical, buildable, and designed for the early-stage entrepreneur who's tired of being invisible online.
You will know exactly which parts of the 4-part visibility system you already have in place and which ones to build next so your ideal client can finally find you.
I pray this blesses you.
