Who doesn’t make more engagements? Who doesn’t want to not feel like they have to cut their fee to get the engagement? We all agree on the answer, but ugh, pulling them off is hard. If only the process in getting booked didn’t cause the heart to race, the stomach to curdle and even the dog to run and hide life would be good.
It doesn’t have to be as hard as it’s made out to be. All it takes is a simple system anyone can use. There’s nothing complex about it, the answer comes down to following the plan. In this program I’ll show you the plan, we’ll break it down, I’ll show you each step. Nothing will be left out. You’ll get everything you need to take your business to the next level.... Regardless of the level you’re at now.
A few of the steps I’ll show you will include:
- The role your website, social media, and YouTube plays in opening doors for
you. - How to handle the first call, whether it be you calling them or them calling you.
- How to keep the contact from going silent on you.
- How to be clear about who you need to reach and why they need to take your
call. - How to handle the dreaded conversation about fees and having to discount.
- How to build a network that generates perpetual opportunities for you.
You will leave the session with the following:
- How to build your network using the 1,3,5,25,100,1000 method
- Knowing the ICP+BI+R formula for booking engagements
- Being able to create your success calendar to maximize your GEO authority
- Having clarity around your value proposition to maximize your fees
