    Key Strategies to Apply to Podcast Pitching

    To grow your business without social media, you must master podcast pitching. Podcast pitching is integral to your online visibility strategy, especially if you want to create success without social media. The Advantages of Being a Podcast Guest Being a guest on reputable podcasts helps improve your online visibility, grows your credibility and authority in your niche, and enables you to stand out as a go-to expert. In addition, it builds trust. When a host invites you on their podcast, they trust you to provide value for their listeners. Since they trust you, their listeners are more likely to trust you. The listeners become warm leads faster than people who have never heard you speak or experienced the value you provide. When interviewed on a podcast, the host will ask where listeners can connect with you. This is your opportunity to drive traffic to your website, which shows Google and other search engines that you provide value, and they should send more people to your site. In addition, you will likely be offered the opportunity to give a call to action (CTA). This is your opportunity to drive traffic to your email list. Share the link to a valuable lead magnet and grow your community for the opportunity to convert the leads to paying clients through a nurture sequence. Another benefit of being a podcast guest is reaching a larger audience. When interviewing, you are in front of an audience you may not have been able to reach without the interview opportunity. Additional advantages of being a podcast guest include building relationships with hosts and listeners and increasing collaboration and referral opportunities. Summary of benefits of being a podcast guest: Increases online visibility Builds credibility and authority Drives traffic to your website Builds trust CTAs help grow your community and email list Builds relationships with hosts and listeners Opens the door for collaboration and referral opportunities Podcast Pitching Strategies Employing strategies to pitch to be a podcast guest will improve your success rate and credibility.

    355. You need to be aware that not all thought work strategies are healthy with Molly Claire

    The Power and Complexity of Thought Work: Navigating Emotions, Intuition, and Change "Thought work" has become a popular buzzword, especially in the coaching and self-development industries. Understanding and applying thought work strategies effectively involves exploring thoughts and the interconnectedness of our emotions, intuition, and behaviors. Going Deeper  We hear a lot about thought work, but there is more to it to change our outcomes. Thought work is not merely about focusing on cognitive processes; it dives deeper into the intricate connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions. Often, thought work can be detrimental. The Essence of Thought Work Strategies Thought work involves more than just thinking positive thoughts. It includes mindset and belief work, diving into how our thoughts influence our feelings and actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a widely recognized model, highlights that our thoughts create emotions, which determine our actions. So, in this model, understanding and intentionally guiding our thoughts is crucial for personal growth and transformation. Despite the benefits of thought work strategies, it's essential to recognize their limitations. Not all feelings stem directly from thoughts. Emotions can arise independently, whether driven by past experiences, relationships, or from unprocessed trauma. Ignoring these emotions and focusing only on thought work can be detrimental. Intuition and Emotional Awareness It is important to remember that thoughts create feelings, but not all feelings are created from thoughts. We have underlying emotions and past experiences that create our feelings. Our bodies possess innate wisdom, often providing physical reactions to different situations. These visceral responses can guide our decision-making. Acknowledging these reactions allows us to tap into our intuition and align our actions with our true selves.  About Molly Claire Molly Claire is a 7-figure business builder, founder of The Masterful Coach Collective, author of the best-selling book The Happy Mom Mindset, and proud mom of 3.

    354. Do you need to niche down?

    In a saturated marketplace, it is crucial to niche down. With so many online entrepreneurs, it's more important than ever that your message is clear and people readily recognize that you hold the key to the solution they need. How can you accomplish this? By niching down. When you niche down, your message becomes uber clear, and you have more opportunity to stand out amidst the sea of online noise. What does it mean to niche down? If you think you can help everyone, you will ultimately help no one. That's a zinger. But it is a harsh reality. When you talk to everyone, the people you can best help may not recognize that you are speaking to them. Your message should be so clear that it both attracts your ideal client and repels those who are not a good fit. Niching down means narrowing your scope, but that doesn't mean you are limiting your business. There is no need to fear a decrease in revenue or experience a scarcity mindset. It means you will become so clear on what you do and who you serve that there is no doubt by anyone who comes across your content or website. When that happens, your best-fit clients will know you are the one to follow and ultimately hire. How do you approach narrowing your scope and identifying your niche? The best way to approach niching down and identifying your niche is to think about an hourglass. The top of the hourglass is full, just like your brain is full of ideas and ways you can help many people. But here is where your message is unclear until you have narrowed it down with specificity.   Start small and expand. This philosophy is beneficial if you are multipassionate.   Read the full show notes and access all links.   Free resources Download the free eBook 10 Strategies to Grow Your Business Without Social Media to learn more ways to market your business.  How to write website copy - Episode 328 What does a business need to succeed - Episode 321 Client retention strategies to increase profitability - Episode 353 The content you need to prove that you are the one to hire - Episode 260

    353. Client Retention Strategies to Increase Profitability with Katrina Scarlett

    Increase your business profitability through Enhanced Client Retention Strategies. Many entrepreneurs wonder why their revenue is not increasing. They often blame sales and marketing. Why? Because they are not making meaningful connections when investing in marketing and sales strategies. There is a hidden key to increasing profitability: client retention strategies. Enhancing your customer's experiences lays the foundation for improving profitability. Understanding Client Experience vs. Customer Service Client experience refers to a customer's comprehensive journey while interacting with a business. It includes every touchpoint, from initial awareness to post-purchase follow-up. Within this broad framework, customer service represents the actions taken to support and nurture clients directly. Excellent service is crucial for client retention, ensuring clients feel valued and connected rather than just a data point in a system. The Five Pillars of Client Experience Culture: An organization's client-centric culture is foundational. Leaders must prioritize placing the client's needs at the forefront of business strategies. Service: Exceptional service involves consistent support and genuine interactions that foster trust and satisfaction. Offers: Businesses should ensure their offerings are aligned with client needs, providing meaningful solutions that contribute to a seamless experience. Operations: Streamlining operations focusing on client convenience can improve service delivery. Procedures should be evaluated not only for efficiency but also for their impact on the client journey. Journey: A holistic approach to client experience keeps clients engaged with the brand beyond immediate transactions. A positive journey encourages longevity and advocacy. The Role of Personal Branding Personal branding is integral to the client experience, impacting lead generation and retention. Aligning brand values with client expectations builds trust, fostering deeper relationships. This connection endures beyond the buying process, encouraging referrals and organic growth.   Katrina Scarlett's Website   Read the full show notes Download the free eBook, 5 Crucial Strategies to Start and Grow a Sustainable Business

    352. You need to do research before you hire a business coach

    The decision to hire a business coach can feel daunting. But suppose you want to eliminate the guesswork in starting and growing your business. In that case, hiring a business coach is crucial. You might be thinking, if hiring a business coach is crucial to my long-term success, how do I hire the right one? First, research to ensure you hire a business coach that will help solve your most pressing challenges. Second, hire a business coach you can trust and feel confident hiring. Hire a business coach that aligns with your values. If you're considering hiring a business coach, do your research. People and coaches aren't always what they appear to be—questions to ask to determine if the coach is aligned with your values. Is it clear what this coach believes? Does this coach have new-age beliefs? You'll learn this from the copy on their website and social posts. Do they use terminology like the universe, manifestation, astrology, heart-centered, etc.? This question is imperative if you are a Christian and want a coach who aligns with your values. Does the coach use curse words? They probably aren't a good fit for you if you do not or if that language offends you. Is it clear who this coach serves and who their soulmate clients are? Do you fit into the person described in their copy? If you are a woman, do you want a business coach for women who will truly understand your challenges of work, family, motherhood, and womanhood? This coach/client relationship is invaluable. Your femininity is crucial to your business success and living authentically and confidently in who God created you to be. Having the support of a female business coach is a blessing because she will understand the challenges of being a female entrepreneur. Questions to determine if the coach provides the value you desire and expect in a business coach: Does this coach have the experience and expertise I need? How long have they been in business? What is their career journey? Are they certified? Will this coach understand my business and what I need? Can this coach help me with all aspects of my business? If they specialize, then be sure that specialty is where your root problem(s) lies. What do testimonials say about this coach? Do they indicate she/he can help me? Do this coach's clients have businesses similar to mine? Did the coach provide value on the discovery call? Was it proven that she/he is the one to hire? Can I trust this coach? Do I feel an emotional connection with this coach? Read the full show notes and access all links.

    351. A divorce recovery coach’s journey to unshakable success with Alberta Jordan

    Alberta Jordan shared what it's been like working with Robyn Graham as her business coach. In addition, she shared her work as a divorce recovery coach. Embracing the Journey Towards Healing, Divorce Recovery The complexities of life often lead to complex and heart-wrenching experiences such as divorce recovery. Embracing this journey is essential for personal growth and healing. Acknowledging the pain, seeking support, and consciously working through these emotions can lead to profound transformations. Inspiring Transformation As a divorce recovery and trauma coach, Alberta Jordan focuses on helping individuals who have gone through a divorce and experienced significant loss. Life after a traumatic event, like divorce, often includes a loss of self. Divorce recovery coaching can help people regain their footing with renewed exhilaration and purpose. The Role of Personal Experience in Professional Coaching Personal experiences shape coaches’ professional approaches. This is true for divorce recovery and trauma coaches, life coaches, leadership coaches, and business coaches. Often, a coach’s journey plays a significant role in their ability to help others who have experienced traumatic life events. The Importance of Addressing Root Causes of Divorce It’s crucial to address trauma’s root causes for genuine healing. Trauma can severely impact one’s ability to make rational decisions, often leading to repeated patterns of toxic relationships and victimhood. The Power of Attractiveness in Divorce Recovery An interesting and often overlooked aspect of recovery is the importance of attractiveness — both internal and external. As people begin to feel more powerful and confident, they naturally want to improve their outward appearance.

    350. You need to realize the ROI of coaching

    Many people recognize the value of hiring a coach. However, many others don't realize the potential ROI of coaching and let fear prevent them from working with a coach who could help them tremendously. I recently asked a potential client what would make her say YES to a coaching package. She said knowing there would be an ROI (return on investment) would help her say YES. I figured if she had that question, many others may, too. The ROI of coaching is multifold. There are many facts to evaluate if you are considering hiring a coach. Let's review some of them. Financial ROI of coaching There are a few ways to think about the ROI of coaching. The first is financial. Let's use the example of paying $5000 for a coaching program. If your clients pay you $2500 and you get two new clients while working with the coach, you have received a solid ROI on your investment. Essentially, the work you did with the coach paid for itself. However, the ROI doesn't stop there. You will not only attract two new clients by working with the coach. When working with a coach to identify problem areas in your business, mindset, strategy, offers, pricing, expenses, etc., you open the door for more opportunities. The best part is that you have someone to hold you accountable for implementing the recommendations and strategies you came up with together. The ROI of coaching is not one-time only. As you implement new strategies, adopt a better mindset, and make changes within your business, you create a lifetime of earning potential. You will attract not only one or two new clients but many more for years to come. For example, if you work with a coach and implement suggested strategies and you get 100 new clients, you have now made $250,000—you have an ROI of 50 times your investment. In addition, if you improve your mindset and simplify your business model, you will save time, energy, and money and have a better quality of life. Together, you create a lifetime of limitless earning potential.   If you are tired of feeling overwhelmed, second-guessing yourself, feeling frustrated, and not seeing the results you want, consider hiring a coach.

    349. Heal the Mind Heal the Body with Connie Strasheim

    A famous phrase often heard is "Your words matter." Whether you realize it or not, your words and thoughts profoundly impact your life. Your words and thoughts shape your life experiences and even your physical health. So, this revolutionary concept is that humans can alter their brain's physical structure by changing negative thought patterns and eliminating trauma. This transformation to heal the mind and heal the body is not a solitary act but a cooperative effort with Christ and the Holy Spirit. Science and Scripture: Converging Paths Scripture states that humans are created in Christ's image and embody both a soul and a spirit. The body is viewed as an exterior part, where true healing starts from within, specifically through the soul and spirit, by fostering a relationship with God. This is a belief that traditional science is finally catching up and proving these scriptural assertions. Mind Renewal and Healing Changing the way you perceive yourself is crucial. Identity in Christ becomes a cornerstone in this transformative journey as you focus on healing the mind and the body. One's beliefs empower thoughts and influence emotions and actions, ultimately defining outcomes. Here are some practical methods to reverse negative thought patterns, enhance your mental and physical health, and wear the armor of God in your daily life.   Read the full show notes and access all links.    Website for Connie Strasheim Connie's Book, Guard The Mind, Mend the Body
