A few weeks ago, I was having a meeting with Brenna, my COO and sister. We are in the process of moving platforms (from Ontraport to Kajabi), so she was cleaning up the Booked Out Business portal and looking through stats. And then she said….The clients who log into the portal regularly are the clients who get the best results.

And…The folks who think the more you invest, the more you make, automatically - and that the transformation is in the transaction, regardless of what happens next.

Last fall, I had a coaching conversation with my client, Brittany. She had been trying to consistently sign coaching clients for a couple years, but it just wasn’t working. She had an offer, a website, decent social media engagement… and yet it just wasn’t turning into paying clients. Almost immediately on our conversation, I realized the issue. I told her what I saw, and what to do differently. She implemented this advice and started signing lots of clients right away. She’s been c...
