• Catching up on last week’s session after a week-long battle with stomach flu. Here is my small topic for the mistakes my clients are making. The CTA will be to schedule a call with me.
    Small Topic 1: Not aligning your tech with your business goals

    Specific Mistake #1: You are relying on the same tech that you used when you started your…Read More

    • I like these. question for you: do they even know what tech they need? so are they buying stuff hoping to patch holes but dont’ understand how it works? Also, what about this one (specific for your 200k audience): They should’t be doing ANY of this tech stuff. It’s not making them sales.

    • these are good. I might make #2 more cexpansive, buying because of a sale, limied time offer or lifetime deal.

  • Value messaging here. Looking to educate my potential clients to raise their standards around their personal brand images. I’m imagining a series of seven posts. I want readers to walk away asking, does my brand image attract attention?

    Seven jobs your personal brand images should be doing for you – #1 Capture Attention

    • Hey Dan. Love this post… had me thinking about my own headshot!! 😂 A couple of things… This line: This guy has something going on I may want to connect with. I’d love to see this changed to “…i want to connect with. This line had me stop wondering if this was part of the post or a commentary for our group… “A note on social media profile…Read More

    • delete: This guy has something going on I may want to connect with.

    • you are cramming too much. Focus on Matt.

      Use this as a brand new post (Or better yet, GO LIVE and talk through this!):

      I just did a search for business coaches on Linked In. I get a screen with face after face in the the standard 400 x 400 circle (but actually sized smaller on search results pages.) Most…Read More

    • I was particularly caught by this line: “But is it doing all it could to promote your business and attract right-fit clients?” I never think of photos in this context and my ears perked up a little at the thought – it sounds like some low hanging fruit or value being left on the table.

  • #1 – Ask me anything.
    Topic : Have you ever felt disempowered, that something was preventing you from getting what you want or need, or that you try to do something but it seems you are not able to get it – and a friend tells you “duh… it is your karma !” – and you thought you were stuck with that damn thing ! Do you feel karma is…Read More

    • Nice, Claire. Are these both business-related or is one meant to be connection-building? #2 seems to broad to invite specific questions. For #1 my questions would be “What is Karma?” “How do you read it?” “Can you read someone’s Karma by reading about them or meeting them online, or do you have to see them in person?” Then again, this is not my…Read More

    • Hi @catpeltiergmail-com – I agree with Ruth. These topics are too broad and wordy. What about something like this: What questions do you have about Karma? or Do you struggle with meditation but want to get better at it? What questions do you have about this?

  • Hi everyone! I’ve been catching up offline on the Turning Point Stories. Here’s mine. (I left in the step by step prompts in this first draft). The photo included is from my first Valentine’s with my husband one million years ago, when he helped lay out a framework for a little joy in our lives. I’d love your comments!…Read More

    • Beth – this is beautiful. I love the part about how your studio continues to reflect the values that are important to you. I also love that you ask others to chime in and share what the studio means to them? It is great as is – and if you want to make it even stronger, I suggest outlining 3 values of the studio very clearly, so people don’t have…Read More

    • HI Beth, Great story & set of twists & turns. I do feel like the emotional content could be turned up a little more.

    • Update: I used this turning point story in a grant application, and I’m a finalist for their top grant award! Kudos to this process – working through this story with Amy, Shannon and feedback received made a huge difference.

  • Hi everyone – I wanted to drop some content ideas for a landing page for a 10 week course – Moving Motivated Women…
    Any ideas or direction are welcome – thank you!

    #1 what do you want them to buy into?

    • Great first draft! On the questions, the way to level up your messaging is to get away from the focus of “pain” and look at the future. So, for your questions, I have reworded them.
      “wouldn’t it be nice to feel secure, supported, pain free and confident in my body! “ – How does YOUR body feel when you are supported, pain free? Can you imagi…Read More

    • Lots of great material here. The “Moving” in the title is a bit ambiguous. “Moving” could be related to business, attitude, and personal life. Not sure about the alternative titles just yet. You could do something like “Motivated Women Moving Muscles” which would be more simple & direct. Might not fit if you have a bigger umbrella.

      • thanks @joel. It’s really about moving more than muscle – once you start aligning the body other parts start to shift too… this is mind body soul work… 🙂

        • Got it. And still “Moving” by itself feels too ambiguous. I’d love to see feedback on this from others. i know it’s way overdone, but to me, “Motivated Women Moving Mind & Body” feels better than leaving it so ambiguous. The other consideration that comes to mind, is that I imagine a Motivated Woman or person wanting clarity or some sense of the…Read More

    PSA SEED IDEA #1:
    “Debunking the Myth that Asian Women Leaders Have Nothing to Complain About”

    1. Considered a “model minority” with nothing to complain about, Asian women are often invisible, overlooked, and under-rewarded at work, despite being subject to widespread gender and ethnic bias.…Read More

    • Nancy,
      I really like your PSA. lots of good content.
      My question is how much do you want to turn up the heat?
      I modified the opening title and the start of a couple of the passages. As I saiid the rest I felt was really good. You may or may not want to get as aggressive as I’ve written these.

      “Who the Hell Says that Asian Women Leaders Have Not…Read More

      • One more note, that caught me right at the end. Your website, is “POWER THE QUEEN”, which is absolutely brilliant. I am curious, when you are in one of those moments, when perhaps you fully step into & embrace being “YOUR MOST POWERFUL QUEEN”,, what changes, if any might she make in your PSA.

        • PS. There are lots of different versions & forms of POWER. Please forgive if I stepped too far in the aggressive, male version of it, with my suggestions.

      • Hi Joel, thanks for your specific feedback, very helpful; I feel encouraged to strengthen the tone up a notch. And I don’t mind your speaking your assertive mind at all. I do like, “Who Says Asian Women Leaders….?”. (Don’t want to scare off the mostly soft spoken introvert prospects — haha). Everybody seems to love my Power To The Queen name…Read More

        • Hi Nancy,
          I’m glad you liked my notes. And part of why I said to myself am I going too far, was in consideration of both you & for your audience. And again, there are lots of versions of being powerful. It might even bee something you talk about yin vs. yang, soft vs. hard. And within one there is the other.
          One other thing to consider, if…Read More

    • Great content Nancy! I echo Joel a bit in that I feel you could get this across even more with a bit more “queen fire” 🙂 I’m a little late to this so perhaps that’s something you’ve already changed up. And of course if you were going live or on video with this you’d be able to convey far more emotion and tone to it. Well written, but maybe a…Read More

      • Scorch marks, Nancy J, yeah! Here’s my PSA#1 Video. Can you take a look when you get a chance? (it seems I can’t post it directly). I can turn on the heat a lot more than this; you give me the idea of showing a “hotter” version to my clients for their response. Thanks! Thanks!https://youtu.be/Xk2ewiJ5kA4

    • I missed this Nancy C! It shows that the video is private so I’m unable to watch, but I look forward to seeing it when you go live!!
