5 (ish) useful things for your Wednesday
Apr 05, 2023 3:19 pm
Dear ,
I want to give you 5 things I think might be useful to you today, right now.
So here goes...
- This morning I did a live in my FB group about everyone's most favorite topic (or not), pricing. You can see it here, but the crux of it is this:
The right version of pricing for you is the pricing you can SAY, and that you feel good about receiving. Period.
Will that change over time? Sure. Are there more 'efficient' ways? Probably. But right now today? Do what works for you. And maybe add 10% (50%) more to the base price. You're worth MORE.
- This week's podcast episode is about SHARING the sales process with the people you're selling to. If you have been hearing no (or worse, hearing nothing), this is for you. Listen here.
Creating a COLLABORATIVE sales process - one where both you and the person on the other side both have a say in how things move forward, one where you're both on board as the conversation progresses makes a HUGE difference. You'll feel better and so will they (and when you both feel GREAT about the process, there are more YESES).
- I was reminded by my coach yesterday that the simplest way to get what you want - opportunities, connections, sales, whatever - is to ASK for them.
I know - it annoyed me too. It's simple, and ridiculous, and also 100% true.
I know what I need to ask for (the chance to speak to groups!) - what do YOU need to step out and ask for?
- If you're not getting enough... traction, visibility, engagement, sales... it's nearly always (I know, nearly always isn't really a thing, but you get what I mean) that you aren't making enough offers - you aren't telling people what you have, how you can help, and why it matters enough.
You might already know this - and also be thinking 'more sounds like more to do and I don't have time for that'.
I hear you, and I want making more offers to be so. much. simpler for you. So starting May 1 I'm running a live workshop and 15 day challenge about making more offers WITHOUT doing spending extra time (because if you had it, it would be extra), thinking up a ton of extra things to say to actually make the offers, creating a ton of extra pressure or stress that you definitely do NOT need, or driving yourself & the people who will be BUYING from you bonkers.
It's going to be so ridiculously useful - all for $23. The details of what you get, how it works, and why you need this are here.
- I've had more people asking for this recently, so I figure this is a good place to remind/share. Yes, I do have a way for you to have one coaching call. It's called a One-Bite session, and it's 90 minutes for $225.
If you have a sticky thing to sort through - pricing, a new offer, something you want feedback on, marketing planning, whatever - schedule a session.
You come, we coach, you go. No selling, just help. Done.
- Okay I lied, 6 things. The last thing I want to share today is this: You are not behind. You are not doing it wrong. You are not slacking off. You are not messing it up. You are not 'not cut out for success'.
YOU are right on time (we can't be late for our own success, y'all). Your way is the right way. Your timing is always exactly right. You are doing your thing, your way, at your pace. You KNOW what to do. You ARE meant to help the people who need you.
So keep going. The world needs MORE of you, not less. K?
And as always, if you need me or want to tell me things... just hit reply. I'm here.
Warmly,
Sara
