The One Thing You Must Do to Position Your Business For Success

Posted on by SBUFaculty

Thursday April 9, 2020 – 11am Pacific, 2pm Eastern

We live in interesting times.
Times of great crisis are also times of great opportunity.
To take advantage of that opportunity you may have to pivot

But one thing is for sure

More and more people will want to take their businesses online.

That means the experienced service provider, coach, consultant or expert will be even more in demand in his/her particular field of expertise.

Yes… they will still think their lack of sales is due to a lack of traffic…

Yes… they will still be obsessed with getting more traffic. 

They want to talk about their ads…

They want to talk about targeting…

They want to dive into settings…

And they will still live in hope that once they have discovered some kind of ninja secret, sales will magically appear!

But the truth is … there is no ninja secret.
Their Ads are not the problem.
They don’t need more traffic.

The real issue is more fundamental.

Fact is… Traffic is not the issue here. The real issue ie that they need high quality leads who are ready willing and able to become buyers.

Fact is… There is one simple strategy which has been around since the dawn of time that attracts, engages, motivates and inspires people to achieve superhuman results (and become clients).

Fact is… There are two things that set homo sapiens apart from other animals.

 The first is that we have the power to imagine things that don’t exist.

The second is that we can all tell powerful stories.

No other animal can do these two things.

The first allows us to dream big dreams like landing a man on the moon or building a reusable rocket. And the second allows us to inspire people to believe that we can make those dreams a reality and that they should believe them too.  

We may live in a digital world (more so than ever now).

That doesn’t change a thing

We are hard wired to listen to stories… To be inspired by them

 We tell stories every day. To our friends. To our family. To ourselves.

 They help us connect. Build relationships. Build communities. Build Tribes…  And attract high quality clients, we want to do business with

Story matters.

 Apple would not be the behemoth it has become, if Steve Jobs was not a great storyteller.

Tesla would not be the most valuable car company in the world, if Elon Musk was not a great storyteller

You don’t have to be a Hemingway or a JK Rowling to write great stories. 

You can write them in 30 minutes a day or less when you know how…

Here’s what a client of mine, Ryan Wegman has to say…

“I used to get zero engagement on my posts, now I get 20, 30, 50 or more likes, shares, and comments on each post. They keep coming in day after day! 

 One post filled my appointment calendar for the entire week. 

I was in total amazement at how quickly the needle moved forward once I started to apply these techniques. Now I use and teach these frameworks to my clients.

I was able to land 3 JV partners for an upcoming launch, secure a private affiliate deal for a high ticket offer, and leverage the minds of multiple 7, and 8 figure per year business owners to position myself for success. 

All due to the one simple change in my day to day business“

 In this 35 minute presentation we’re going to take a deep dive into  how to tell better stories

  • How to use them to attract the clients you want to work with
  • How to use them to power the growth in your business while maximising margins
  • Why organic as well as paid traffic generation is key to your ongoing business success
  • And what systems you need to put in place to do all this so you can delegate the process

Rosemary O’Neill – 10 Keys To Grow Your Business with an Engaged Online Community

business growth with online community engagement

Thursday March 26, 2020 – 11am Pacific, 2pm Eastern

In this crazy new situation we all find ourselves in, NOW is when you need to find your voice online, and bring your people together, virtually.

An engaged community isn’t a luxury anymore – it’s a necessity. This webinar will offer 10 key tactics you can use immediately to start growing your online community, whether you’re a solo entrepreneur or part of a larger organization.

Your community is already out there, talking about subjects that are relevant to your business. That conversation shouldn’t be taking place in a vacuum. You should be a vibrant part of that discussion, adding value and learning from your customers/community members on an ongoing basis.

It’s time to harness the power of that engaged community by hosting a space for them to come together and share resources, support each other, and gain a sense of belonging with your brand.

This is an opportunity to show leadership around social distancing and self-isolation – the two important social strategies that will help us significantly slow the spread of COVID-19.
In this webinar, you’ll learn 10 key strategies, including:
  • The biggest mistake most people make when setting up a community (and how to avoid it).
  • How real life is an important component of online community, especially in the beginning.
  • How to create and foster a two-way connection between your social accounts and your owned community (they’re not mutually exclusive, in fact Social Buzz Club will help!).
If you do it correctly, your community members will love you for making a place that delivers value to them every day.
Everybody likes to talk about “community,” but when you complete this webinar, you’ll have a deep understanding of what it really is, how to be a great community leader, and how to apply that knowledge to support your business goals.

Many business owners are baffled with how to make their social media gain more visibility, engage their target audience, and especially how to make money.

Business owners don’t understand that social media is only one piece of a complex digital marketing strategy intended to convert your viewers into fans and followers, and your ideal audience into paying clients.

It must be done in five steps, and executed in the right order.

Busy professionals are frustrated with the hours of wasted time, effort, and money spent and lost trying to figure out how online marketing work for them.

Busy professionals are confused by the unlimited number of online options to try that may work for some, or once worked some years ago.

Digital marketing is the promotion of your products, programs, services, and events using online channels. This could include social media, landing pages, funnels, SEO, paid ads (like Facebook), email automation, etc.

A solid digital marketing strategy must determine which channels and what compelling content are most appropriate to attract and convert your ideal audience at this moment in time.

Join me and learn what 5 steps and in what specific order create the most online success and sales conversions.

How Empowered Feminine Does Business

How the Empowered Feminine Does Business

What good is achieving your goals if you have to kill your feminine spirit to do it?  Learn how to access your feminine power without having to push. In fact, you’ll discover balance between your inner masculine and feminine and find yourself taking inspired action.

Women often think there are only two choices for how to operate in business:

  • Be aggressive, muscle through and make it happen (in other words be totally in the masculine energy)

OR…

  • Align your thoughts, do affirmations and wait for what you want to come to you (in other words be totally in the feminine)

The first approach may generate results but it often leads to burn out and breakdown.

The second approach can leave you feeling disempowered with little to show for your efforts.

The good news is that there’s another way.

It’s the way of the Empowered Feminine.

In this presentation, you’ll learn:

  • How to find the balance between the feminine qualities of receptivity, intuition, and nurturing and the masculine qualities of strategy and taking action to build a successful business without getting overwhelmed or burning out.
  • How to create business strategy that honors your feminine nature but also creates results.
  • How to make a bold ask without feeling pushy or being attached to the outcome.
  • What your business magnet is and how to turn it on
If you’re up for having more ease and flow of opportunties in your business, join us and learn how to make this formula a reality:
More fun + More pleasure= More money and opportunities
