  Dan this is great! It feels a bit long for a social post (for me) but I think this would make a great email. Maybe a pic by each tip showing the awkwardness?

  Love this and love the depth of it. Well done. Did you publish as a “regular post” on LI or are you using the article feature? Do you have a LI Newsletter started? How did the post do and what visuals did you add with it?

  @jennycreativemessagemedia-com I’m having a hard time pulling your 3 tips from this one. Maybe in the Holiday Hero paragraph (I’m imagining you in an ugly Christmas sweater wearing a cape) you can list the 3 things that you will bring to the party.

  Hey @jennycreativemessagemedia-com – great post. Is this the Value post from October club. If so, I want you to explicitly list out (3 ways, 3 transformations, etc) that you will provide when you partner with the company. Also, I much prefer the word partner, rather than hire. <3

I have 2 businesses. This is the speech coaching biz. I’m new but really want honest constructive feedback. Let her rip! Thank you!

Yikes, you just got asked to give a 10 min. talk and you’ve got 60+ minutes of material. How do you decide what to cut?

This is one of the most common challenges industry experts and results leaders struggle…Read More

  I think it’s a great topic! Can you maybe shorten your hook to something like “How do you shorten 60 minutes of great ideas into a 10 minute talk?” Can you give 3 tips from your methods to get people interested, or so they can try them out and then reach out to you for more help?

Here is my draft. Feedback welcome! Also wondering if I should include a photo in the Facebook post. Is this too long? Thanks!

Dog Moms! Does your dog bark excessively or lunge when you are on a walk?

If this is you, you have probably learned to be on alert so you can be prepared to intervene or prevent this behavior. This makes sense when…Read More

  Hi Blair, I was on the 12pm EST call w/ you this morning. I’m totally new so take my comments w/ a grain of salt. As I read this I almost giggled because I didn’t think that dogs were that in tune with us and can sense our energy on a walk. Wondering, if other people might feel that way when reading your post. You have such great tips and insight…Read More

    Thank you, I think I will play with some wording and add that idea! Often that is a new thing to think about for people.

Reposting my hooks, gave me time to think about this.
I could do 3 hooks on walks with your dog, or I could do 3 hooks each on different behaviors dogs may have that cause stress.

Do you feel stressed or anxious just thinking about walking your dog?
Does you dog feel aggressive when you take them on a walk?
(or, Do you worry that other…Read More

I had posted my draft post here earlier today, but I don’t see it now. I also have apparently lost the file on my computer :(. Hoping maybe my post will somehow show up!

Possible hooks:

*3 reasons you’re losing out on dances at festivals
* why your embrace could be costing you dances
*why you feel uncomfortable in your embraces
*want to improve your social dance connection and get more dances?
*from chaos to clarity in your embrace
*from ho-hum to orgasmic in your social dancing
*Stop getting stepped on…Read More

  This is my favorite: *want to improve your social dance connection and get more dances? You are focusing on those who already dance, right?

  Hi Daniela, I’m new so take my comments w/ a grain of salt. Personally, I don’t know what embrace means in that context. I definitely know what the last entry means…”Stop getting stepped on!” I don’t know what social dances mean? I’m guessing that your target audience knows exactly what that means? Does that mean going to dance clubs and getting…Read More

Badassity Client Story: Musician Carey Farrel

I love photographing musicians! You get to focus on a wider range of expressive vibe, play with literal “reality,” and break more rules! The badassity is more out loud.

  Dan, i think you’re a great writer… I read this and thought – who is the audience? I felt like you were teaching me about how and why you make choices…. Maybe this is a good direction for Linkedin.
  I feel like it could use a trim – and with the 3 difference questions at the closing I feel overwhelmed with action, to the point that I may not…Read More

    Thanks, Daniela! Good point about the questions. I need to focus the end, not blast out options!
    I mainly use Linked In, and the intent is to educate my potential clients (coaches, consultants, entrepreneurs, and transformational leaders) how I work to define a client’s brand attributes and then design images to express that. Thanks for your feedback!

    I agree as well. I enjoyed the post and the photos are gorgeous but I was confused about what to do at the end. I think one CTA would be best.

H! Here is my first stab at a value content email. I did not use the 3 related tips format. Not sure if that is a must, but I felt it flowed better this week. Feedback appreciated!

  I like this Sara. (Being a person who feels like Charlie Brown in class with the blah blah teacher -the minute people talk money/revenue / profit… huh?) I feel that I might like it shortened – you say “focus on profitability” – and my mind wants to know right away what that is and then vs what revenue is…. and then a tie in and your CTA….…Read More

  I love this! I had a question about the difference between revenue and profitability, and then you answered it. You asked questions and shared tips without making me feel like I was doing something wrong, and when I realized I don’t do this – you offered a solution and hope!

  Hi Sara, I felt there was too much explanation. I think most people understand some of the things you were explaining. So I cropped considerably. If you want to keep more of the explanations, I would tighten it up.
  Technically, most of what is written is about making money & profit which could apply to marketing, sales, or other arenas.
  Maybe…Read More
