  • Social Selling Success - Looking Forward

    With so many people teaching you funnels, automated email sequences, passive products, Facebook ads....

    It's no wonder you're stressed, exhausted, burnt out and feeling hopeless about the LONG TERM stability of your business. I know I was! For YEARS I was creating 200 slide webinars, 10-20 email sequences, automated funnels. pouring THOUSANDS of dollars into Facebook ads, constantly pivoting, reinventing and changing things to KEEP UP with the ever-changing algorithms, email deliverability, Facebook group 'rules', and so forth.

    My frustration with this endless, exhausting hustle and falling for every shiny new 'hack' and 'blueprint' in my newsfeed and email, led me to wipe it all out and start fresh. I started over with the PURE intention to go back to the basics. To keep things simple in the simplest way and that brought me straight back to human connection and relationship building.

    Now, stay with me because the coaches and leaders you follow today will FROWN UPON THIS! 

    Connect with people in REAL TIME?? Who has time for that?

    Build relationships with people?
    Wait! Have 2-way conversations??? Oh hell no! Why do that when I can throw them into an automated sequence and head to the beach?!

    The fact that these same 'leaders' go live every day saying how they're 'service-based' entrepreneurs and all about 'global impact' and 'change' and then turn around and disconnect from any LIVE, REAL TIME, FACE TO FACE interaction and instead, default to sticking you in an automated funnel - is the complete opposite of service-based and I think it's an epidemic. 

    On today's episode, I'm keeping it real and honest about what I think is wrong with social selling today and the leaders using and teaching it, as well as what we're doing and believe ALL entrepreneurs should be doing if they want SUSTAINABLE LONG TERM clients and sales! And yes, I'm calling the bluff of our 'so called leaders' who are leading you straight to burnout, exhaustion and constant reinvention - no shame in my game!

  • 4 Things we're doing to SKYROCKET our Lead Generation (organically), Rapidly Boost Engagement & Fill our Programs with Soulmate Clients

    In an industry that is so disconnected and automated, people are feeling unheard and like just another number on someone's list. With the industry moving so quickly, people have moved from relationship building, human connection to hiding behind their screens and thriving on automation, passive products and paid traffic.

    It leaves so many people wondering how they'll ever keep up...how they'll ever be able to build a big enough audience to have the global impact they want to have...

    If you're feeling so sick of being pitched in your newsfeed, in every single email you get, inside every group and social post and every messenger bot, imagine how YOU'RE people feel when you do that to them.

    People buy because of EXPERIENCE. They buy because the relationship, trust and relatability they have with YOU. Here's the truth. ANYONE can make sales. But how many people are making CONSISTENT sales on rinse and repeat for YEARS to come WITHOUT having to constantly, pivot, switch their business model and pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into their automated campaigns and traffic sources?

    What happens when FB ads no longer work, are too expensive or FB shuts down and you've built your business model on FB ads? What happens when algorithms change (yet AGAIN!) and reaching people is EVEN harder and you've built your business model on FB. And what happens when email deliverability drops even more than it already has and you've built your business model on automated email campaigns?

    The majority of entrepreneurs are in a SERVICE-BASED business and THRIVE on human connection. That's why they REFUSE to sit in a cubicle disconnected from the world to earn an income - YET...they are hiding behind computer screens and never having a 2-way conversation with their audience and their entire business model is automated and passive!

    Well, we're NOT one of those people AND our business model is FAR from automate because we invest in PEOPLE, NOT systems!

    In today's episode, I'm breaking down what we've been doing for years now that has allowed us to push closer than ever to our 1 million dollar year, rapidly boost LONG TERM engagement and clients and have lead generation become the easiest (and FUNNEST) thing EVER! Let us show you how YOU too, can build a sustainable, profitable and consistent business model.

  • Our Multiple Five Figure Facebook Challenge Launch System

    If you've been following the trends online, then you know that *most* entrepreneurs are teaching heavy, exhausting, and drawn-out launches that not only suck the life out of you but completely exhaust your audience leaving them NEVER wanting to see you launch again...

    And all for a whopping few sales!

    You've seen it - 3 or 4 months of launching, happens once every year, same thing over and over, super desperate and pushy sales tactics and strategies. It leaves you resistant to launch because it's absolutely draining.

    Well, what if we could show you how we do 5 day launch sprints that create MULTIPLE 5 figures that are not only profitable and SUPER FUN, but leaves our audience WISHING the launch wasn't over???

    The best part is that our clients do this with no sales pages, websites, tech or hustle! It is BY FAR the easiest and most fun launch that requires next to nothing!​ 

    In today's episode, I'm dropping the down low on EXACTLY what my team and I are doing to create these epic cash results, engagement peaks, and a proven rinse + repeat system that NO ONE gets sick of!!
