I'm just going to say it.
You’re not attracting clients because your videos aren’t perfect or because you don’t have a big list or audience.
You’re not attracting clients because you’re doing everything but the stuff that actually gets you the results that you lay awake every night wishing you had.
The ability to confidently and elegantly book out your roster with sure, eager-to-pay clients, on repeat, month-after-month.
Contrary to what you think, or have been told by your mentor, or your mentor’s mentor’s mentor: it’s not the posts or videos you create that give ZERO insight into HOW you get your clients results...although this is definitely a problem.
I used to have a mentor say, like clockwork: “It’s never about the HOW.”
Ie; Strategy or action steps.
Until I begged her to help guide me on a strategy…
I implemented it, and signed my first (2) high-ticket clients ever.
That was in 2018. And as they say, the rest is history.
Because I had the belief: “I’m going to enroll 2 new beautiful souls as clients today at $3K each with ease”...
And the 3-step how to back that belief up:
- Create an irresistible and aligned offer, which, at the time, was called “10 Weeks to $10K”. Cringeworthy today, however aligned-to-soul back then (which is why it sold).
- Connect with people: listen and ask powerful questions.
- Make a compelling - and loving - invitation to my offer if I * genuinely * felt I could help solve their biggest problem.
For the people out there telling you “It’s never about the HOW, it’s about your mindset/belief/energy”... think twice.
For the people out there telling you “It’s always about the perfect STRATEGY… think twice.
You need both.
And to be clear, getting to the place and readiness of carrying out an effective strategy is only as good as what you currently think and believe as possible.
For instance, I could sit down and collaborate with you on a perfect custom strategy for you and your business.
Essentially hand to you, on a rose gold platter, the exact couple of things you need to do everyday in order to grow your business.
Today.
This week.
This month.
It’s that simple.
But only a few would actually get the results they want.
Because it’s simple...but it’s not easy.
And what I’ve found is that only a few are ready and willing to do the actual work that is required.
Hence why only 12% (ish) of the population are entrepreneurs?
Now If you were to ask me, after talking to thousands of people and working privately with dozens of clients worldwide…
What is the actual thing that separates winning coaches (the top 5-10%) from other coaches?
Very simply: it’s their willingness to get uncomfortable for a potentially uncertain amount of time (the kicker...because we are hardwired for certainty).
>>To risk their Reputation.
This ‘different’ and becoming version of you will be confronting to those around you. Enter the: “She’s getting too confident/cocky/big/bold/loud…”
>>To risk their Relationships.
As you grow, those around you might not. Growth and stagnancy often meet in conflict and heartache.
>>To risk their Finances.
If you want clients but you’re not walking your own talk, no wonder it’s hard to talk to others about doing the same.
>>To risk their Followers.
Growth means death to another part of you, and this won’t work for everyone. People will come and go, follow and unfollow, subscribe and unsubscribe. C’est la vie.
>>To risk their Lifestyle.
If required: are you * actually * willing to put all attention and resources, into funding your dream?
To put the 18 different subscription boxes on hold?
To trade in the $8 daily latte?
>>To risk their Comfort.
Is refusing to no longer stay small, stuck, time or money poor a ridiculous idea?
Make no mistake, you can create the $8K and $10K++/month business you see others having, * even during a global pandemic * and do it with ease and love, and attract people who are willing to pay.
But it all starts with a rock-solid belief supported by your perfect how (strategy).
Need help creating that to get more leads than you can handle? PM me.
