Client Tsunami - Result of Connections, Mastermind and…

Yes, the reason I have been neglecting you all for so long is that I experienced what I call a “Client Tsunami”.
Let me explain: As many of you know I added online product launches to my program a while ago. Well, offering launches techniques that create a full year’s of income in 7 days was the “magic bullet”.
Still, without anybody to tell about it would have been a magic bullet without any audience…
But I had established friendships among my peers, I had joined two powerful mastermind groups (one before I could really afford it) AND…I started attending high caliber life events again.
Yes, those three elements combined made up the components of a perfect storm!
Here is how happened so you too can create a “Client Tsunami” for your business:
1. For some months now I had made quite a bit of effort to get to know my facebook and twitter friends. Not just tweeting to each other but actually getting on the phone, being of help, providing benefit for those who I connected with.
2. I had joined a mastermind group of successful conscious women entrepreneurs. Here too I made an effort to get in touch with everybody in the group, was active on the calls and took my facilitating coach up on her private coaching offer.
3. I attended some of the best life events I could afford. Mostly marketing events where I met some of the most amazing brains in the industry. Again, I spent my breaks helping others with branding and productizing advice and even made suggestions that amplified some of my new friends’ product launches!
After some time spent tweaking my offer, making sure I had a team in place and was feeling very confident about my “Launch With Impact” program, I started setting up appointments with those connections I made and those my friends made for me.
Result: A tidal wave of private clients!
I guess, in the end the title of this article might be a bit deceiving, it also takes confidence, real expertise and a “magic offer” to create this perfect storm but still, I know that my confidence and know-how alone would not have done the trick.
As a coach, I ask you this:
What stops you from creating a “client tsunami”?
Is it your lack of skills? I doubt it!
Is it your lack of confidence? I hope not!
Is it maybe that you are not connecting enough with the right people?
Is it that you might hold back a bit from giving freely?
Is it that you might like hiding out when you should be making friends?
If any of the above are hitting home, then go onto facebook now, find one of your hundreds of “friends” and make a real friend. Go and sign up for a life event and give, give and give…
If you are missing the “magic bullet” that makes you so attractive that it’s effortless to get strangers to make time for you, then give me a call or send me an email. Together we might find that magical offer that is within you…
Until next week, I promise…
Love Christiane

Do You Deserve My Attention?

Today I carved four hours out to study all there is about “Product Launches”. FOUR hours! I closed down email, turned off the phone and cleaned up my desk.
AND YET…
My mind, not used to focusing for four long hours on ONE thing, went crazy! 1000’s of to-do-items popped into my head as I was trying to focus. The temptation to open my email back up, to quickly check my facebook page, to twitter just for a second about what I had learned, to check if I had phone messages. AHHHH, I felt so distracted (thank goodness I have the subject of product launches and resisted but still, ohhhh, the temptations…).
Now, what does that have to do with you? Well, your messages, your emails, your promotions, your websites enter my life during the times that I don’t even TRY to block out distractions. No, your attempts to communicate with me come when I am actually trying to get those 1000’s of things off my to-do list.
What does that mean to you?
It means that you not only have your competition to worry about but my attention!
My very short, stretched and maxed-out ATTENTION.
No wonder, it is harder and harder to emerge from obscurity, to be noticed for your great gifts, for your amazing work, for your great offers…but there is a solution.
Actually, it’s series of solutions that need to be tied together to make the impact you so desire.
1. You need to amplify your entrepreneurial spirit. Start thinking bigger, start thinking leader. Start thinking movement.
2. You need to create an electrifying brand. Your value proposition needs to be supported by powerful values.
3. You have to have irresistible products and services that really (really) work…and you have to customize them to meet your different clients’ needs and budgets
4. You have to create momentum. The slow selling of your products and service doesn’t work any more. You need to catapult your name and offer into orbit so that others will take the time to see and hear you. Not once but many times!
Once you do that, you will in effect deserve my attention and believe me, you’ll have it! Because you just made it easier for me to focus, to find a solution, to hear you and to learn from you.
Please, please, please, for the sake of the world, follow those 4 steps, do whatever it takes to learn them and then you get to do what you came to do, heal, help and make the planet a more beautiful place for all of us!
One way to get my attention is to leave your comments below. Share your gifts right now. Make us stop and listen!

P.S. I just finished a report on exactly those 4 steps, I am having it formatted right now and it will be available in a couple days.
