Do you know the reason you have been feeling differently about the things that are going on around you versus the way you felt just a couple of years before? TRANSITION. GOD is causing the disciples of JESUS CHRIST to truly go through a change. We should not be surprised at this because when you walk with CHRIST, (truly walk with Him and not some ‘representative’) there will be a change that takes place in you because what He reveals, teaches, and says is DIFFERENT than anything else that you will hear or experience. Take some time and look at the life of the disciples in the Scripture that walked with Him as He was on earth, weren’t their lives changed? What makes you and I think we will be any different?

TRANSITION: that is what is taking place. Going with it equals going with Him.

How do you feel when people ask,
“so, what do you do?”…

Do you feel confident because you know
exactly what to say to end up with new
clients? Or…

Do you freeze up, get nervous,
and try your best to fumble through
with an explanation and get ZERO
clients from it? Personally…

I used to get VERY nervous and get
this tight feeling in the pit of my stomach
because I wasn’t sure what to say and
even when I did have something “planned”
to say, people would look at me weird. Or…

They would nod and smile and say “very
interesting” in a way that made me know
they didn’t think very highly of me.

It was VERY FRUSTRATING! But then
I figured out a way of taking those situations
and having the reverse experience. Where
people would immediately say…

“I need that. I’ve been looking for
someone like you all my life. Would
you be *willing* to work with me?”

I remember the first time I had that
reaction from someone. I was totally
floored (but I kept my poker face on
and ‘played it off’ like this sort of thing
happens to me all of the time).

People probably ask you what you
“do” all of the time. If you ever go to
networking events, then sometimes
you “get to” say what you do in front
of an audience.

That can make you even more nervous,
but if you do it right it’s really a chance to
give a “Client Getting Commercial”.

You get to give a ‘commercial’ to people
1 at a time or in front of a group. But…

If you don’t know what to say, this
opportunity can quickly become a nightmare.

In my program, “Client Attraction &
Money Making Mastery”, I teach a
formula for quickly writing up your
own “Client Getting Commercial”.

I’m going to give you the formula for
creating your “Client Getting Commercial”
and then I’m going to give you several
different “Client Getting Commercials” that
you can take and use as your own.

OK, so here’s the formula for creating
your own “Client Getting Commercial”…

Answer these questions:

# 1. Who do you work with?
#2. What is their biggest problem?
#3. What do you do to help them?
#4. What result do they end up with?

I recommend that you answer
these questions yourself and create
your own unique spin on this. But…

Here are some examples of the
‘Client Getting Commercials’ in action.

You can think of them simply as
examples OR you can take them and
use them as YOUR OWN. Enjoy…

-> For Business Coaches: Say this…

I help business owners who are
spending too much time at work to
clarify & prioritize their focus so that
they can make more money and work
as little as they want.

-> For Weight Loss Coaches: Say this…

I help women that are struggling
to lose 20 pounds or more to actually
stick to their diets and slim down to
their sexiest weight.

-> For Sales Coaches: Say this…

I help high commission sales
professionals that are struggling to
make enough sales, streamline their
sales techniques and work more
efficiently so that they can double
or triple their commission checks.

-> For Parenting Coaches: Say this…

I help parents that are ‘at their wits
end’ because their children are talking
back, doing drugs, or hitting people and
teach them what to say and do with
their kids to turn their children into
well behaved people headed for
successful lives.

-> For Dating Coaches: Say this…

I help single women that are having
trouble finding and keeping a great man
to become the kind of woman that is open
to love and easily attract the man of their
dreams.

Or this…

I help single men that are having trouble
with dating to discover what really attracts
great woman and overcome their insecurities
so that they can get all of the dates they want
with the kinds of women they want.

-> For Leadership Coaches: Say this…

I work with leaders and managers that
are being pressured to squeeze more results
out of their team and I show them how to
use personal coaching techniques with their
team so that they double their productivity
& profitability.

These types of “Client Getting Commercials”
will get you clients because…

#1: Identifying a specific type of person
and talking in specifics always out-performs
speaking in “generalities”.

Most coaches talk about “getting to
the next level” and “bridging the gap”,
but ultimately those things are too
vague.

#2: You’re addressing their BIG problems,
and the emotional pains that these
problems are causing them is exactly
what motives people to take action
and get help (your help).

#3: You’ve explained, in a very concise
way, how you work with people. This way
they “get” what you do in way that makes
sense and isn’t confusing.

Notice that none of the examples
above even mention the word coaching!
Why? People don’t care about HOW you
help them get results. They just want the
results.

#4: You’ve talked about the specific
RESULTS that they want. That’s the other
thing that motivates people to buy coaching.

Now, here’s what you need to do…

Pick the “Client Getting Commercial”
from above that most closely matches the
people that you work with and practice saying
it over and over (5 times or so) until you have
it memorized. Then…

Think of some places where you can
actually use this over the next few days
and watch how people respond.

Notice how people start getting
very interested in what you do by asking
for your business card, telling you that
they know someone who needs you,
and if they are in the situation you
described…

“They’ll practically BEG you to help them”

Now go do it!

“Success is a journey, not a destination.” Ben Sweetland – Let’s SOAR to a higher level by connecting with other successful entrepreneurs. See you at the top!!

You can measure success any way that you want to. Success is not measured by money because anyone can make a lot of money. The goal is to make a lot of money by living out your passion. When you are working toward something you are extremely passionate about you will usually be fortunate enough to make some money. The important thing is that you can look back on your life and know you did everything you wanted to do and you have no regrets.

Organize your life around your passion. You have started a new job or passion that you want to be successful in. Start living the successful day that you have always dreamed of. For example, wake up early in the morning, brew coffee, read the paper, talk on your blog, and more. Organize your life to be useful time that is healthy for you. Plan your time with plenty of exercise and healthy decisions. Be sure you are getting enough sleep also. You will have to put in a lot of hours to be successful at first but you cannot lose sleep or you will have problems enjoying your passion. Working toward a passion means you get to sleep too. Proper organizing will allow you to be successful and more productive.

Only you can make it happen.
No one can do it for you.
No one will do it for you.

Always accept the responsibility for your actions.
Always set a higher standard for yourself.

Choose the thoughts and actions that will lead you on to success.

Your success is but a determined action away…
