Have you ever sent an email to your list and heard crickets? This happens way too often for many coaches and it's because most don't understand how to create genuine connection.  You can go to so much effort to share your content on social media and even run a launch, but if you don't have copywriting that first connects with your audience and then converts them into clients a lot of the efforts can go wasted. 

This is the exact reason why I wanted to bring on copywriting expert (and our ELITE Copywriting Coach) Hollie Tkac. In this episode we dive deep into the secrets of creating conversion copy (without coming off pushy and sales-y)

In this episode you'll discover:

• The difference between writing an email that gets no response compared to one that gets you a crazy amount of sales
• Simple practical tweaks that you can make to your next email that will increase open rates and caused your audience to go wild for your stuff
• The big mistakes that many coaches make that cause...

Many people live their lives restricted by the fears and failures of the past. Whether it was a failed business, relationship, or finances , these can all impact our willingness to step out and really shine our light. 

If you are ready to step out of the fears of the past and into the hope of a bigger future then this episode with Harper Collins Best Selling Author, Julie Solomon, will truly allow you to break free. 

In this episode we explore:

• The reason why you may be still holding onto your past failures 
• 3 step process to recognize and resolve your fears for good
• How to identify the beliefs that are sabotaging your progress and shift them so that your mindset is set for faster growth
• The secrets to finding your story and sharing it with your audience in a way that is empowering and generates clients.

Julie has also released her new best-selling book: “Get What You Want: How to Go From Unseen To Unstoppable”. 

You can get a copy where all good...

Building trust with your audience is one of the most important things for converting them into clients. You must master telling your story in order  to build trust faster and enable your audience to trust you. In this episode, I was featured on Sean Cannell's Think Media podcast where we discussed how you can use your story to connect and convert clients.

I've had the privilege of coaching thousands of students over the last 13 years. I was reflecting on what was the difference between those students who go on to see immense success and others who have struggled. Especially when the content, community, and coaching experience stay the same. I discovered 3 success traits that my top student displayed that I believe have led to their growth.

As a lifelong student myself I reflected on the specific traits that have led to my success and how I've seen them in my six and seven-figure students consistently.

That's why I think this conversation is one of the most important ones to have in growing your business. This episode is focused on replenishing your energy so that you can show up as your authentic self and make more of an impact than ever before.

Email can be one of the most powerful tools for you as an entrepreneur. But, most coaches and course creators are doing it completely wrong. Email is effective when you use it as a vehicle to build a strong connection and ultimately convert them into your programs. In this episode, we unpack with email marketing expert Bobby Klinck exactly how to stop writing emails that suck and start creating ones that your audience looks forward to opening each week. Bobby has just released a new book called Email Marketing That Doesn't Suck!

In this episode you'll discover:

• The secret to connecting with your audience through personal stories (this will give you so many great ideas for your email marketing)
• Why the 'click through' rate doesn't matter and the real focus you should have with your emails.
• Bobby's new book "Email Marketing That Doesn't Suck" and the strategies you can use right away.

One of the hardest parts of growing your business is the moment when you make an offer. For so many coaches and course creators, this can be a really uncomfortable transition. Maybe you're running a webinar and you've taught some great content and then you have to transition into your pitch. Or you're having a one-to-one call with a prospect and you want to invite them into your program. This transition point is what I called the point of sale.  In this episode I talked about how to feel more comfortable making an offer to your audience so that you grow your business, make more money and serve more people.

In this episode you'll discover:

• The simple acknowledgment strategy I use to move past my fear and into confidence when I'm about to pitch to an audience
