Maya Elious: When You're Not the Smartest Person in the Room


Listen Later

Maya Elious is a personal branding strategist that teaches experts how to position themselves as the go-to authority figure in their industry so they can confidently launch their signature offer.

She’s helped hundreds of students and clients get clear on their message, confidently increase their prices, and have successful five-figure launches with their masterclasses, webinars, courses, and programs. Her main mission is to help women increase their impact and income with their gifts and expertise.

She’s been featured in publications like Black Enterprise, Forbes, and Business Insider teaching other entrepreneurs how to effectively build their personal brand.

As a first-generation American who dropped out of college to break free from the traditional mold, she believes in the power of pursuing your purpose despite the nay-sayers. She enjoys encouraging women to use their voice, and share their message in the form of online content in order to reach more people. She does this through her 12-week accelerator program, Built To Impact, and her signature live event, Impact Weekend.

When she’s not helping her clients build their online empire, she can be found traveling, scrolling through IG, or watching Hulu.

 

This week on the Get Paid Podcast, Maya joins us to chat about why the company you keep matters, pivoting her business, and landing corporate clients on Craigslist. 

 

You never want to be the smartest person in your circle. People in my circle were making more money than me, and that pushed me to charge scary numbers and do scary launches. Just being around those people shifted my mindset around money.” — MAYA ELIOUS

If you're like me, you've heard the talk: “Evergreen funnels aren't effective. Only certain types of businesses can actually sell on autopilot”. But, that's not true at all. I’ve made $50,000 in revenue with Mariah Coz’s evergreen funnel strategies. 

Now, you can walk through her entire system in her free class: ‘How To Sell More Courses With An Evergreen Sales Funnel’.  It's kinda insane how detailed she gets in this training. Visit clairepells.com/ee to get it right now.
