    437: How Jess Grew Her VIP Group to Over 1,700 People

    437: How Jess Grew Her VIP Group to Over 1,700 People

    Today I’m introducing you to one of our students, Jess Touchette. She took her VIP customer group that she wasn’t using and turned it into a profitable tool for her business using our key strategies that we teach inside our program!
    Over the last 3 years, Jess has shown up differently in her group and as a result, she has seen major growth! She has more engaged members, and is making $2K to $3K in sales a month from her group alone! In fact, right now her VIP group is the number one business building tool that Jess has, with a thriving community of over 1,700 people that she loves spending time with and serving. In this episode, Jess reveals exactly how she did it.
    If you’re feeling frustrated and wondering if your group is something you should be focusing on, I hope this conversation with Jess will inspire and educate you!
    Would you like to turn your Facebook Group into a money-making machine for your business, like Jess has done? If so, I’ll be hosting a free 3-day workshop on July 23rd to July 25th called How to Revive + Monetize Your VIP Customer Group.

    434: My Thoughts on What's Happening With SEINT

    434: My Thoughts on What's Happening With SEINT

    Today I want to talk about what is happening right now with SEINT, a popular company in our space and one that I’ve worked extensively with. If you haven’t heard already, SEINT just announced that they are changing their compensation model to a pure affiliate model, which means that SEINT will be getting rid of the team building side and focus solely on product sales.
    This is a big deal and sad news for our profession, and I want to share my thoughts on it because as a company, it’s our mission to elevate the standards in this space. Not only by the way that all of us practice business, but also to hold the companies accountable by having some of the difficult conversions that need to be had, so we can educate you in what to look for in the companies that you align with.
    Although people are seeing this as a sign that our industry is falling apart, you’ll see why I think this could not be further from the truth. With the fear and uncertainty out there, I’ve spent the last few days gathering my thoughts so that I can speak to you about what is happening, and I went live to do that.
    Today, I’m re-sharing that livestream that I did here on the podcast. The big message I want to bring to the SEINT artists who are feeling afraid is that I’ve been through this situation myself twice in my career, and we’re here to support you. Whether you’re in SEINT or not, if you’re in this profession and serious about building a future in it, this is going to be a very important message for you to hear today.
    Listen to Learn
    4:47 - The 3 specific things I want to accomplish by openly sharing my thoughts on this situation 
    9:33 - My message to SEINT artists and a reminder about the powerful choice you can make 
    11:08 - Why I am so thankful now that I had a similar thing happen to me twice before 
    13:39 - My advice when it comes to picking companies and what you don’t want to do
    17:26 - How I know that our profession is not dying, but the ways in which it is absolutely changing 
    20:18 - The main problem I have with SEINT’s change in the compensation model they’re using
    28:34 - What I see for the future of this space and the role that each one us has in making in better

    432: Changing Companies and Starting Over at 52

    432: Changing Companies and Starting Over at 52

    Today I have a special episode for you. I’m sharing an interview that I did with a client of ours who has been a really important member of our community for quite some time, Kim Lima.
    In this episode, Kim talks about her journey of starting over and changing companies, after she built a successful business over more than a decade with her previous company. You’ll hear how Kim did this in a season of big change in her life, and she reveals her thoughts before and after moving from a company that she no longer felt passionate about or aligned with. This wasn’t an easy decision for Kim to make at the age of 52, but not only did she make the move, but in less than a year she has been able to build a business that rivals the previous one she built over many years! 
    This conversation Kim and I have is a very important one. I want to normalise the idea of changing companies, and this is something that not a lot of people talk about or it is often viewed as being something negative or bad to do. I don’t necessarily believe this is true, and as Kim’s story proves, there absolutely are certain times and situations when changing companies is the right thing to do. This is something that only you can answer for yourself, but what I feel really matters is the way you go about doing it, in the right way as Kim has done.
    If you’re considering making a change, hopefully this episode gives you the other side of the story to help you make an educated decision that is the right one for you and your family!
    As I’ve been sharing, I’ll be hosting a free 3-day workshop on July 23rd to July 25th called How to Revive + Monetize Your VIP Customer Group, and you can register now at www.yourvirtualupliine.com/vipgroup!
    Listen to Learn
    5:32 - What ultimately led Kim to make the decision to go in a different direction with her business 
    8:22 - Although people often change companies for the wrong reasons, why this can be a positive move to make 
    10:32 - The way in which Kim set the tone with her company before leaving and why this was so important to her to do 
    13:12 - The mindset she had as she embarked on a new venture and why she says that betting on herself made all the difference 
    19:51 - A special ask for you regarding how you can support this podcast and its message
    23:21 - How the groundworks Kim laid over the years led her to what she says is the perfect business for her and her customers 
    32:47 - What the record month she had looked like, and why she is upfront and honest about the months that aren’t record breaking ones 
    37:08 - Kim’s final thoughts and advice for anyone considering to make a move like she did
