Consultants, have you noticed that your "would-be" customers are taking much longer to make buying decisions these days?

If you are sensing this sentiment, you are not alone.

Many are worried about a high level of uncertainty about the future of the economy & are unsure about investing their money and time to solve problems they have.

So, if you are wondering what could get them over the hump faster, my answer would be to offer something that is super low-risk but also valuable to them.

This is the reason an interactive online quiz can be a great tool to:

• Consistently build your email list on autopilot

• Serve as an entry point to start engaging with prospects

• Showcase your unique approach to help them

But the downside is quiz creation can be a time-suck if you don't have a clear plan of execution.

If you have been on the fence about creating one or you've already created one but it did not catch on, you will want to join me for this free training.

During this session, you will master:

1. How to leverage your expertise to create truly meaningful quiz content.

2. How to create a quiz that's driven by psychology so that yours will create a buzz.

3. How to be efficient with the required tech stack to automate the process.

4. How to promote your quiz without burning out.

5. How to keep quiz-takers engaged with you.

This training is going to be an intense, fast-paced one that will provide a clear blueprint in under 1 hour.

You won't regret signing up as this training will save you loads of time, energy & money.

Save your spot now & tell your peers & friends to come along as well. 🙌🏼

I look forward to seeing you there!

“Can I really make 6 figures in my business by focusing on just one niche? What's the catch?!?”

The answer to the first question is a resounding YES! And actually, there is NO catch! This is the fastest and most efficient way to grow your business.

Discovering a profitable niche that will easily help you generate 6 figures is all about asking yourself the right set of questions so that you get to explore all possibilities without getting into decision fatigue.

By the end of this training, you will have a clear game plan that will allow you to roll up your sleeves to do the work... instead of getting ready to get ready!

Also, during the training, you will master the 5 “must-have” ingredients you want to have in your strategy to guarantee your success.

This training is perfect for service business owners & creative entrepreneurs who are:

🔸 Creating too many ideas & haven't been able to find the one that provides financial freedom,

🔸 Scared of making mistakes by pigeonholing your niche.

🔸 Feeling the pain of working more hours to generate more revenue,

🔸 Tired of only offering “done for you” work that requires customization for each project,

🔸 Dealing with clients who don’t take your advice & nitpick everything.

What if you get to fall in love with your business all over again because you no longer worry about money? 😍

How will it feel to free yourself from offering a wide range of services that take up so much time to market & promote?💡

What will you do with that free time after designing your business to work like a well-oiled machine?🎯

If that sounds like pure joy, then this training is the one you need!

There’s nothing wrong with plain vanilla if we are talking about ice cream. It goes well with apple pie or any other pies. But when it comes to your message about your business being plain vanilla…well…let’s talk.

Unless your business is a mega-corporation, going with the positioning of being plain vanilla isn’t a good strategy because appealing to the masses is a costly business. On top of that, plain vanilla isn’t memorable. Hence the saying goes, “If you try pleasing everyone, you please no one.”

But I get it. It’s easier said than done, right? We don’t want to miss out on opportunities. We want to play it safe so that we can be accepted without any criticism. I know. I know. I’ve been there.

This is why I'm hosting this free online training, "No More Plain Vanilla: The 3-Step Formula for Unlocking Your Profitable Niche" next week so that you'll know what to do to make your business stand out, be seen & be valued. 

From my experience, blending in to be widely acceptable didn’t really happen. I blended in alright, but I wasn’t widely acceptable. Once I made a decision to just go all-in with who I am, what I’m capable of offering, and being clear on non-negotiables…, though, things started to shift. For real.

I was getting more inquiries about guest appearances for podcasts, guest-posting, and other opportunities. Pitching for collaborations became super easy, too! (By the way, this doesn’t mean they say yes to all my pitches. It means I get yes or no very clearly so I don’t waste my time.)

Are you interested in learning how to unlock your profitable niche & go all-in as who you truly are? If so, register here! I'll see you in a week!

FREE ONLINE LUNCH & LEARN WORKSHOP via Freelancers Hub NYC: RSVP HERE

Calling all creative entrepreneurs! Did you happen to say to yourself, "I'm totally raising my price in 2020!"? Raising prices is one way to save you from being completely stressed out & burning out because you can avoid getting into the game of "racing to the bottom." But it has its own limitations. 

If "increasing revenue" is on the top of your list, you want to consider "value-based pricing,” especially if you are currently charging by the hour. This workshop is for you if you are tired of trading time for money & want to stop playing small!

After taking this session, you will learn: 

• Key benefits of value-based pricing for you and your clients.

• How to go about setting your prices.

• Smart ways for announcing your price change.

• Tips for being able to charge a premium.

Save Your Spot HERE!

Have you been in search of a bigger meaning in your business?

Do you often find yourself contemplating on how to align your mission & values with what your business currently offers?

Does it feel like your offers are becoming too generic?

If so, I’m glad you are here.

Let’s face it. As a service business owner, “what” we do, just by itself, is a dime a dozen. But what separates us from other competitors and/or other alternatives is a combination of customer experience, the way we communicate our solutions with them, and how we approach problem-solving differently.

The question is, have you found a way to showcase your distinct blend of expertise so that you will always be in high demand?

This is what we’ll be learning in this free online masterclass.

While everyone else is too busy chasing after opportunities that may boost their authority status i.e. PR opportunities, writing a book, starting a podcast, or rebranding their websites, we are going to take a deeper look into what makes us distinctively different from the rest.

Sure, these “authority-boosting” activities are important and effective but only when you know how to articulate your distinct blend of expertise. No amount of “visibility” can mask the ambitiousness of what you stand for & how that is translated into what you offer.

I know, deep down, you are with me on this!

So, join me for this interactive free masterclass on May 8th at 1 PM EST & let’s work on this together.

From this training, you will walk away with:

✔  Various actionable methods to identify your distinct blend of expertise.

✔  Knowing how to own up & showcase your distinct blend of expertise.

✔  Understanding how to reassess your current offers based on your redefined expertise.

✔  What follows identifying your distinct blend of expertise.

Now imagine yourself & your business as a jar full of colorful jelly beans. The mixture is one-of-a-kind that no one else can replicate. Each jelly bean in the jar represents your experience, expertise, life lessons, personality, and energy that you bring to the table.

Fun, isn’t it? Then let’s figure out how to label your jar of jelly beans other than… a jar of jelly beans!

APRIL FREE ONLINE MASTERCLASS:

“Now is not the best time to sell.”

“My service no longer seems to be timely & valuable. I may have to lower my prices.”

“We are heading into a recession.”

“Now is not the time to invest in myself.”

“Not sure if my business will survive this.”

Are you having these thoughts running around in your head?

I don’t have to be the one to tell you these are a kind of statements that can slow your business down. If your business slows down, your mission will slow down, too. If your mission slows down, many people who are in need of your services will have to wait.

It’s like a vicious circle…and deep down, you know this.

The funny thing about it is that these thoughts can appear logically sound (right?), but they are highly subjective & often, they may not be totally true.

The alternative I want to offer is to master the art of reframing by asking “What if this is not true?”

During this masterclass, that is exactly what we are going to do. Sign up today to save your spot so that you will be COMPLETELY RECHARGED with the newly found clarity after the session. Save your spot today by clicking HERE.

You’ll walk away with:

• Various ways to reframe your thoughts by helping other participants.

• Learning how to keep the momentum going with your new beliefs.

• Coming up with your own action plan so that you get to regroup & refocus.

• Mastering useful tips to be intentional and consistent with your new beliefs.

• Feeling refreshed by gaining clarity on what to focus on next.

***NOTE***

There will be NO REPLAY with this session. This one will be taken down after the session to be put in the vault. So, be sure to RSVP & save this session on your calendar HERE! See you soon!

Sick & tired of chasing money all the time? 

Getting a tad bit resentful about your late-paying clients?

If so, let's change that. By setting up a *Frictionless* system, you are going to make your clients "want to" pay you fast. There are many small tweaks you can make that are not costly.

During the masterclass you will learn:

• How to start off each relationship right.

• How to set up your back-end system that's not tech crazy.

• Easy tips & tricks to save you loads of time.

• How to design your payment terms that work for you.

If these sound good to you, join me on Feb 27th at 12:15pm EST. Sign up today to save your spot HERE.

Until then, start dreaming up what you will do with all the time you are going to save by not chasing money!

See you then!

• Key benefits of value-based pricing for you and your clients.

• Creative ways to get around the obstacles.

• How to go about setting your prices.

• Smart ways to announce price change.

• Tips for being able to charge a premium.

Abundant Selling Masterclass: How to Fill Up Your Pipeline Without Selling Like the Rest

Do you hide behind your computer wishing & hoping that you won’t ever have to do any sales activities for your business while wanting streams of income to keep coming through?

First, you might want to ask why that is.

Because you’re an introvert?
Because you hate sales?
Because you feel like doing sales is shameless self-promotion because you don't want to be “salesy” & and don’t know how to execute?

If you identify with any of these statements, you have got to join us at this event so that you can transform your thinking into the *abundant selling* mode instead!

Another scenario: maybe you don't dislike sales that much, but you aren't getting the kind of results you want. You have no shortage of energy & motivation to keep at it. On the back of your mind, though, you are starting to wonder if you might be missing something.

Either way, getting the word out about your business is a crucial component to growing your business. I'm sure you agree. So why don't we tackle this once and for all?

So, here's a thought:

What if you no longer have to feel heavy about finding new customers & clients? It's a lot easier than you think without flashy tactics or gimmicks. And, we can work on it together. Would you give this a try?

At this event, Tai (product pro), Hemma (digital products pro) & Maiko (service pro) will walk you through what *abundant selling* is, why this concept is important and how to implement it in your business right away.

***Special Gift*** There will be a gift for all attendees!!! RSVP today to save your spot!

Who is this for?

This event is best suited for people who are considering to start a business, already started a business and seasoned entrepreneurs who have the desire to build a robust & sustainable business.

You will walk away with:

1. a realization that you can change your thinking about selling your offers & feel good about it.

2. an understanding of the key factors that can stand in your way of doing *abundant selling*

3. knowledge that none of what you actually offer matters & it’s about what you can do instead.

4. learning what you should work on first to implement this strategy & get results right away.

5. newly regained confidence that will move your business forward.

Let’s flip the script about sales together!

There is so much confusion & skepticism when it comes to defining a niche for your business. Do you agree?

"How in the world will niching my services down bring more customers to my business?! It makes no sense!"

"We don't want to be known for just one thing... we don't want to be pigeonholed..."

"Influencers & experts are saying not to niche down... Who's right?!"

If your goal is to find more customers who truly value your service (and won't question you every step of the way), you don't want to miss this training session.

We are going to demystify what niche means, what it doesn't mean & how to go about it the right way. After this session, you'll no longer be wasting your time randomly testing business development ideas or constantly chasing down new tactics & strategies that others claim "work like a magic." (You know how that goes).

Who will benefit the most from this training session?

Service business owners who have a sales track record for 18 months+. Defining & refining your niche works the best for businesses with tractions. 

If you are a visionary CEO & founder with the desire to build a high-functioning, profit-generating machine, this is for you.  

What you will master:

1. Why descriptions like "one-stop shop" or "all-in-one solution" are not good enough to cut through the noise in 2019.

2. What the most common misconceptions & points of skepticism are surrounding the concept of *niching-down*.

3. How to use the Niche Diagram to find your True North & prepare for the possibility of not hitting the bull's eye.

Have you been waiting to “feel ready” for publicity, but you aren’t even sure what that means?

Are you waiting for someone from the media to notice you and reach out, wondering why others in your industry seem to get all of the attention?

The most important thing to you is making sure you serve your clients, but you’ve reached a point where you are ready to expand your reach to a larger audience.

You are a little overwhelmed by all of the “noise” telling you that you need a better website, you should rebrand, you need a clearer message, you need more experience, or that your story is not special enough. You wonder if you’ll ever feel ready and you know you don’t have time to do all the things.

It’s time to stop waiting to feel ready.

Who is this for?

This is for small business owners & entrepreneurs who are interested in learning more about getting publicity for their businesses and aren’t sure where to start. It is also for anyone who has gotten some publicity for his or her business but isn’t really sure what the ROI was or how to get PR on purpose.

You will walk away with:

1. Learn how to tell if you’re ready for publicity.

2. Gain valuable strategies to help you build relationships with influencers (even if you feel intimidated).

3. Understand how to leverage your publicity to help your business.

4. Discover whether or not all publicity really is good publicity.
