Intrigued by a method that combines strategy, sales, systems, and a success mindset? Want to learn from real-life examples of entrepreneurs who have successfully navigated this journey? Are you prepared to shift your mindset from scarcity to abundance and embrace the path to millions?

Move to Millions: The Proven Framework to Become a Million Dollar CEO with Grace & Ease Instead of Hustle & Grind

If you’re reading this, you’re likely already an entrepreneur with a successful business. You’re millions-minded and it’s not a pipedream—it’s legit. You may not know the exact day or time you’ll cross the million-dollar mark, but you know it’s coming. This book is about making one million dollars in cash or more in one year from impacting countless lives through your business.

Darnyelle Harmon, the author, wants to see more businesses make millions in one year. She wants to see more CEOs of small and micro-businesses become millionaires, create financial legacies, and become philanthropists and angel investors. Over the last eight years, Darnyelle has helped create thirty-eight million-dollar CEOs and countless six-figure earners. This book is about sharing that framework with you.

This book isn’t just about making millions of dollars. It’s about the principles and business growth strategy that will allow you to leverage and scale your business to create generational wealth. It’s about the movement that God kissed Darnyelle with—you can love God and make millions. 

When Darnyelle was in high school, her dad told her that if she wanted to go to college, it was on her. He didn’t have anything saved to help her. That moment made Darnyelle vow to never say the same to her children or grandchildren. She dared to dream beyond her circumstances, and you can too.

This book will unfold in four parts: mastery, operational obedience, vision, and execution. Each part is a standalone blueprint for your best life and business ever. Darnyelle will share principles, assets, legacy, data, scriptures, client success stories, and her own musings to help you undergird the knowledge that if you didn’t come from millions, millions ought to come from you.

Can You Build a Million-Dollar Business While Keeping Faith, Family, and Fun Intact?

Growing up, Darnyelle always felt the weight of financial struggle, influenced by her parents' fraught relationship with money. Her father, despite earning well, fell victim to addiction, while her mother juggled finances creatively, yet never seemed to have enough. These early lessons taught Darnyelle that money was elusive, something to be hoarded or feared. Her mindset was shaped by a history of poverty and scarcity, reinforced by societal narratives that linked wealth to immorality or unattainability.

As a teenager, her father's actions—like draining her savings—imprinted a belief that money could be taken away without consent. Darnyelle carried these beliefs into adulthood, making poor financial decisions and accumulating debt. It wasn’t until she was forced to face financial ruin that she learned money is energy, and its flow isn't restricted by hard work alone, but by alignment and mindset.

Guided by books like "A Happy Pocket Full of Money," Darnyelle began to see money as a spiritual concept, a birthright rather than a burden. She realized the importance of reshaping her money beliefs and dismantling the limiting narratives she'd inherited. Through exercises like the "Box of Limitations" and guided by mentors like Jen Sincero, she learned to question and rewrite her financial story.

One pivotal realization was that abundance is not about having but becoming. By adopting a "Be. Do. Have." mindset, Darnyelle focused on aligning her identity with the abundance she sought. This shift allowed her to overcome blocks like unworthiness and fear of success, opening pathways to financial freedom.

Her journey from financial illiteracy to mastery was marked by understanding money's true nature. By investing in herself and becoming investable, Darnyelle learned to make money move, transforming fear into empowerment. This transformation is exemplified by her client Attiyah Blair, who, under Darnyelle's guidance, transitioned from a TV producer to a multimillion-dollar entrepreneur, mastering the art of money flow.

To achieve mastery, one must confront and rewrite their money story, embracing the mindset for millions. It’s about breaking free from inherited beliefs and stepping into a future where wealth is not just a possibility, but a reality. Darnyelle's hope is to inspire others to embark on this transformative journey, unlocking their potential for abundance.

From Scarcity to Abundance: Jen Sincero's Guide to Financial Freedom

Since 2008, Darnyelle has worked with thousands of entrepreneurs at every stage, starting as a Mary Kay Cosmetics sales director, then as the director of the Center for Women’s Entrepreneurship in Delaware, and now through her company, Incredible One Enterprises. 

Many entrepreneurs believe reaching the million-dollar mark is all about strategy. However, according to the Small Business Administration, 89.19% of non-employer businesses never make $100,000 in gross receipts, indicating that strategy alone isn't enough.

Darnyelle developed a formula called the Move to Millions Method, which goes beyond strategy to include sales, systems, support, and, crucially, a success mindset. Take Kim Kendall, for example, an interior design master who scaled her business from $8,000 to $60,000 a month by focusing on her mindset.

To grow, you need to leverage assets like a well-packaged and positioned offer suite. The right offer, priced correctly, can make a significant difference. Payless Shoes' high-end brand, Palessi, sold $10-$40 shoes for $500, proving that people will pay more for well-packaged and positioned products. Your relationship with money is also crucial; believing you can earn more is key to making it happen.

Up-leveling your ideal client and clarifying your business model are also essential steps. A deep business model, offering one robust solution, is more effective than a wide model with multiple lower-end offers. Your signature business move, or system, should be clear and concise to ensure client success.

When it comes to pricing, it's about the value you provide, not the time spent. Bridgett Battles, a personal stylist, shifted from charging $25 an hour to offering packages ranging from $2,500 to $25,000, significantly growing her business.

In short, to reach the million-dollar milestone, focus on leveraging and scaling your offer suite, up-leveling your ideal client, clarifying your business model, and pricing for value. These steps, combined with a success mindset, will set you on the path to substantial growth.

Can Kim Kendall's Million-Dollar Mindset Transform Your Business Too?

When Darnyelle was 14, her geography class assignment on Nebraska taught her a lot about marketing. Segmenting her classmates by their interests led to a presentation that convinced 88% of them to move to Nebraska. It was Darnyelle's first taste of leveraging words to influence decisions—marketing in its essence.

Years later, while running a women’s business center, Darnyelle simplified marketing for small business owners, developing workshops that became a core curriculum. She believes that marketing, often misunderstood, is vital for business growth. Mastery in marketing involves understanding your audience and deploying a well-positioned message consistently.

When onboarding new clients in her Move to Millions Mastermind, Darnyelle assesses their business across seven areas, often finding gaps. She places importance on marketing, the conversation between your business and those needing your solution, as crucial. Darnyelle's personal definition of marketing is creating a SPICE message and deploying it through appropriate channels to your target market.

A key to marketing, according to Darnyelle, is understanding your pinnacle client. She advises focusing on what brings this client into view. For instance, five-day challenges might work if your client is responsive to such formats. Otherwise, webinars or other methods might be better.

In her coaching programs, Darnyelle guides clients through detailed questionnaires about their pinnacle clients. She believes that knowing your client deeply helps in crafting effective marketing messages. The Leverage + Scale Business Success Formula Darnyelle teaches includes components like traffic sources, lead generators, and nurture sequences to keep potential clients engaged.

She acknowledges that marketing mistakes are common. Darnyelle made a significant one during her Move to Millions rebrand launch by using outdated strategies for a new pinnacle client, leading to an epic failure. However, by adjusting their strategy quickly, they salvaged their launch and generated over one million from their live event.

Darnyelle believes that your marketing suite should include a clear strategy, consistent content deployment, social media management, marketing software, KPIs, and automated sequences. Tools and systematic approaches, like leveraging speaking engagements or live events, can significantly impact your business growth.

Client stories like Althea Hearst, who quadrupled her real estate business, and Marquel Russell, who scaled to multimillions, highlight the power of focused marketing strategies and leveraging the right tools and support systems, according to Darnyelle. With a clear marketing suite, she believes you can pave your path to making millions.

Mastering Marketing: Lessons from Nebraska to Million-Dollar Success Stories

Starting a career in a Fortune 500 company was a game-changer for Darnyelle. From an entry-level job making less than $20,000 a year to becoming an assistant vice president, it was a journey filled with valuable lessons. Success accelerates when you have the right insight and connections. Working in corporate taught the importance of systems—documenting and systematizing everything from day one.

Systems are the backbone of a company, creating predictability and efficiency. They allow for duplication and automation, reducing active work time and increasing a company’s valuation. There are seven essential systems: operational, financial, legal, client management, marketing management, sales management, and talent management. Each system plays a critical role in running a business smoothly.

Operational management governs day-to-day operations and is the heftiest system, requiring thorough documentation. Financial management involves understanding and reviewing financial statements and having a team that includes a CPA and bookkeeper. Legal management ensures the company is protected legally, with proper agreements and documentation. 

Marketing management focuses on getting found by clients consistently, using a well-planned strategy. Sales management tracks sales and revenue, understanding the nuances between the two. Client management oversees the entire client journey from onboarding to offboarding. Talent management involves hiring and managing a team to support and scale the company.

Building these systems takes time and effort, but they are crucial for scaling a company to the million-dollar mark. Documenting every process and procedure creates a living, breathing system that can be updated regularly. Systems make hiring easier and increase the company’s valuation, making it a sellable asset.

Building a team is essential for scaling a company. Initially managing projects and processes in corporate, the transition to managing people was challenging. Yet, having the right team is pivotal for success. The journey from managing a small team to a larger one involves letting go of the DIY mentality and embracing the support of others.

Scaling requires a mindset shift and the right systems. To become a million-dollar CEO, building a team is necessary. Start by hiring for roles that free up time to focus on high-value tasks. Indications that it's time to hire include spending too much time in the business, having a perfected signature system, and thinking about future ventures.

When ready to hire, focus on creating three ultimate teams: operations, talent, and marketing/sales. Document key processes and systems, ensuring they are living documents. As the company grows, the team structure will evolve, allowing the CEO to focus more on strategic oversight and less on day-to-day operations.

Hiring at the assistant or manager level and promoting from within saves money and ensures team members are well-versed in the company's operations. Building a talent suite is an act of vision, paving the way for a sustainable, multimillion-dollar company.

Keira Ingram, a real estate broker, diversified her income streams and built a team, significantly increasing her revenue. Jasmine Womack grew her business by focusing on team building and stepping into the CEO role, quadrupling her revenue and moving to millions.

In short, systems and teams are crucial for scaling a company to the million-dollar mark. Documenting processes, building the right team, and focusing on high-value tasks create a sustainable, profitable business.

Ready to Scale Your Business Like Fortune 500 Leaders?

When Darnyelle thinks about confidence, she recalls her high school days with her friend Nina and her nurturing family. Their unspoken confidence stemmed from mutual love and appreciation, something Darnyelle longed for amidst the chaos of her own home. Her stepmother's lack of warmth further eroded her self-worth, making time with Nina and her mom, English, crucial. They made Darnyelle believe she mattered.

Confidence is elusive for many, often stifled by childhood admonitions to be seen and not heard. Darnyelle's dad's harsh words during a family gathering made her question her worth, and she carried that anger, feeling unwanted. Yet, Mrs. Dixon's encouragement helped Darnyelle grow into a confident woman, despite being mistaken for cocky.

In her work, Darnyelle sees many women entrepreneurs struggle with confidence, impacting their ability to charge what they're worth or close sales. Studies show over 85 percent of women in business face these challenges. Through her programs, she helps clients like Lindsey, who initially undercharged, find their confidence. By documenting her successes, Lindsey saw her worth and gradually raised her rates, transforming her business.

Confidence is crucial on the journey to millions, but so is forgiveness. Carrying grudges, as Darnyelle once did, can block your success. She used to hold onto every slight, big or small. It wasn't until she read "Forgiving Forward" and embraced forgiveness that she saw a flow of abundance in her life. This release was instrumental in hitting a million-dollar milestone in her business.

Surrendering control is another vital principle. For years, Darnyelle believed success was solely up to her. But true growth came when she let go and trusted a higher power. This shift in mindset transformed her business. Surrender is about clarity, alignment, and obedience. When you align with your true purpose and let go of rigid control, you open yourself to greater possibilities.

Incorporating surrender into business strategies can bring peace, confidence, and significant growth. Darnyelle's clients have seen substantial leaps, like Dr. Angela, whose business tripled in a year. Surrender, combined with faith, is a powerful strategy for moving to millions.

Reflect on how surrender can enhance your business approach and let go of outcomes. Embrace confidence, forgiveness, and surrender to unlock your potential and achieve your million-dollar goals.

Unlocking Million-Dollar Success: Confidence, Forgiveness, and Surrender

One of Darnyelle's favorite movies is "Vantage Point," where different perspectives reveal a complete story. This inspired her to understand that our current viewpoint often skews our vision. She believes we must focus on where we want to be, not where we are. 

Growing up, Darnyelle always looked ahead to where she wanted to go, which served her well in business. For instance, one might not see their million-dollar business now because it isn’t yet packaged or positioned correctly. But by shifting perspective and borrowing confidence from someone who sees potential, it can become a reality.

Darnyelle's journey involved creating vision boards, both personal and for her company, which helped her visualize her goals and back into them step by step. She holds that it’s essential to visualize your company's future, inspect its feasibility, strategize your path, interpret feedback, organize your steps, and network for support.

In 2015, Darnyelle hit a wall despite her business's success. She was overwhelmed and hated it. She realized money isn't everything and chose to restructure her business for sustainability, even if it meant losing millions temporarily. By the time they reentered the million-dollar mark in 2020, they had built a foundation for sustainable success.

Darnyelle believes that navigating the messy middle between six and seven figures is challenging but necessary. It involves ups and downs, questioning everything, and requires strong communication with your team and family. Remembering your why, going back to basics, over-communicating, and finding gratitude can help one get through it. Community support is also crucial.

She insists that this journey isn’t about hustling to seven figures but building a sustainable business that serves you. As one moves through the messy middle, Darnyelle advises staying focused on your vision and keep pushing forward. With the right mindset and support, one will reach their million-dollar goal.

Can Vision Boards and Perspective Shifts Turn Your Business into a Million-Dollar Success?

When Darnyelle was a child, her grandmother, Nanny, introduced her to the world of entrepreneurship by selling freeze cups out of her home. Watching her grandmother run her business, Darnyelle learned the importance of respecting your pricing and understanding the value of your product. This early lesson stuck with her and shaped her approach to business.

Years later, navigating her own entrepreneurial journey, Darnyelle realized the significance of mastery. Her father, a former teacher turned industrial engineer, taught her the value of education and discipline. He believed in logical thinking and mastery of skills, which influenced her approach to business. His lessons on mastery were tough but invaluable, contributing to her professional growth.

When Darnyelle started her business, she was a generalist, trying to cater to all needs just to make ends meet. However, she soon learned that being a master of a specific domain is crucial for business success. Mastery, as described by Malcolm Gladwell, involves having ten thousand hours of proven knowledge. This mastery allows one to provide valuable solutions to clients and stand out in the market.

In her journey, Darnyelle discovered the importance of having a clear movement and manifesto. Inspired by God, she created the Move to Millions movement, aiming to eradicate small business poverty and empower CEOs to normalize wealth and create lasting legacies. Her manifesto emphasizes wealth, abundance, and the belief that if you didn’t come from millions, millions should come from you.

To leave a financial legacy, Darnyelle realized the importance of having a comprehensive legacy suite, including intellectual property protection, a wealth plan, an investment portfolio, insurance, an estate plan, and a business succession plan. These elements ensure that your business continues to thrive and impact future generations.

Reflecting on these experiences, Darnyelle urges you to craft your own movement’s manifesto, think deeply about your legacy, and seek professional advice to build a robust legacy suite. Your business is not just about making money; it’s about creating a lasting impact and financial legacy for the future.

From Nanny’s Freeze Cups to Malcolm Gladwell’s Mastery: Crafting a Legacy of Wealth and Impact

When Darnyelle was in college, a mentor inspired her friend and her to finish a business project, which turned into an amazing business concept. Though her friend lost interest, Darnyelle pursued it alone and presented it in class to great acclaim, attracting investor interest. Her friend, seeing the success, wanted back in, but Darnyelle stood firm, having done all the work herself.

This experience taught Darnyelle the power of taking action. Knowledge is useless without implementation. She believes in taking immediate action and not waiting, as delays can lead to missed opportunities.

To achieve your goal, you need a sound strategy, sales infrastructure, systems, and a team. It's not just about reaching a million dollars but sustaining it. Darnyelle's first attempt at making millions failed due to a lack of proper foundation.

The journey to millions requires community, accountability, coaching, and implementation. Most people struggle to achieve their goals alone. A Harvard study shows that many give up within weeks or months. Community and support increase the chances of success.

If you're serious about moving to millions, you need to take action. Whether it's through listening to the Move to Millions Podcast, using the 90-Day Planner, or attending live events, there's a path for you.

Remember, if you desire to make millions, it's not arbitrary; it's what God desires for you. Your business is the vehicle for bringing wealth into your lineage. Embrace that desire and take the steps required to achieve it.

Now is the time to decide. Will you prepare your business for the million-dollar rain, or will you let fear and inaction hold you back? Tighten your strategy, develop your assets, and commit to your vision. The path to millions is in your hands. Let's move to millions together.
