He inspires me to keep moving, believes in my abilities and seeks my opinion concerning how he can improve his company. His energy is infectious and it radiates throughout the internet-based world. When I look at his carrot-topped hair, I smile as if he is a friend I have had since childhood. When I cannot face the rest of my life(let alone my emails), I continue to open the mail I get from him. I have asked myself why I care to respond on today...because I really believe this 'strangerfriend' appreciates hearing from me. So here it goes: He inspires me. He gives without reservation. His cup of positive energy overfloweth and I am blessed by the overflow. <br/>His name, by the way, is<br/>David Wood. Thank you for being authentically you.<br/><br/>-Clarissa Middleton David,

I finally realized what I wanted to be when I grow up and you were my first source of information on life coaching. Two years later I am still reaping the benefits. <br/>I appreciate your willingness to share your vast knowledge, resources and most of all your heart and sense of humor. <br/>As a new coach, I have many moments of uncertainty and I can't tell you how many times your newsletter shows up just in time with just the information I need bringing me clarity and the courage to carry on with my amazing journey. I also loved the video of you in the morning:)<br/> <br/>Wishing you great joy,<br/>Leslie<br/>www.amazinggracelifecoach.com Hi David,
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I finally realized what I wanted to be when I grow up and you were my first source of information on life coaching. Two years later I am still reaping the benefits.
I appreciate your willingness to share your vast knowledge, resources and most of all your heart and sense of humor.
As a new coach, I have many moments of uncertainty and I can’t tell you how many times your newsletter shows up just in time with just the information I need bringing me clarity and the courage to carry on with my amazing journey. I also loved the video of you in the morning:)

Wishing you great joy,

I ultimately searched for and found "First 50 Clients" and your newsletter. <br/><br/>Since then, I have been up and down with coaching, but whenever a newsletter comes into the inbox, I read it (and now, 3 years later, I subscribe to at least 10 ezines for coaches). Here is what I know for sure. <br/><br/>You give a solid "freebie" in every newsletter. You give solid advice, tips, things to consider, etc. without it being a lead to buy a product. Sure, you plug your products (or others' products) as you see fit, but it's not in every ezine. <br/><br/>I feel you do want us to succeed as coaches. I believe everything you offer is of great value and I have never regretted any purchase from you as I have often gained more than I thought I would. <br/><br/>While I do believe you have every right to make money helping coaches (as many do) you take the responsibility seriously to actually help coaches whether they pay you or not (through the ezines). <br/><br/>Once in a while, people will email me and ask about a great resource for coaching and I always tell them that you and Solution Box are only one of two sites I recommend. That while they other coaches may very well want to help people, I feel very sucked in to HAVE to buy or I'll miss something that is essential. You never hard sell us. You always give more value than you charge. I think that's why you have my trust and so many others' trust as well. <br/><br/><br/>I hope you go back to the free teleclasses, and keep on helping the coaches that really need you in so many ways. I'm personally really grateful for you and Solution Box. <br/><br/>May you know the difference you make in each life affects so many others. <br/><br/>Warm Regards, <br/><br/>Vikki S. <br/>www.thepersonallifecoach.com Hello David!

I have received your Solution Box newsletter for the last 3 years.I was taking a coaching instructional course and found they lacked the business savvy needed to really put a coaching business together. I ultimately searched for and found “First 50 Clients” and your newsletter.

Since then, I have been up and down with coaching, but whenever a newsletter comes into the inbox, I read it (and now, 3 years later, I subscribe to at least 10 ezines for coaches). Here is what I know for sure.

You give a solid “freebie” in every newsletter. You give solid advice, tips, things to consider, etc. without it being a lead to buy a product. Sure, you plug your products (or others’ products) as you see fit, but it’s not in every ezine.

I feel you do want us to succeed as coaches. I believe everything you offer is of great value and I have never regretted any purchase from you as I have often gained more than I thought I would.

While I do believe you have every right to make money helping coaches (as many do) you take the responsibility seriously to actually help coaches whether they pay you or not (through the ezines).

I hope you go back to the free teleclasses, and keep on helping the coaches that really need you in so many ways. I’m personally really grateful for you and Solution Box.

May you know the difference you make in each life affects so many others.

I love the DIY tools and especially the video you made to show your journal process, with you waking up first thing in the morning! You're prepared to be REAL and take a risk and this is admirable - you practise what you preach. I am a counsellor and life-coach in UK and dealing daily with confidentiality and one-to-one clients can be a solitary business, so your newsletters are a great way for me to feel in touch with someone else out there in the same business.

That "thing" is MailWasher!!! My wife was complaining bitterly of all the spam she has been getting through her website and I had tried everything I knew of to lower the volume of spam. <br/><br/>Well, with MailWasher Pro, we each can BOUNCE that email back on the spammers! And it appears, over the past month, that the spam is decreasing as I suppose the spammers are taking our names off their lists due to bounced mail.<br/><br/>Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!!!!<br/><br/>-RJ Dear David,

Somehow this gave you an air of vulnerability that radiated very positive things and built rapport.<br/><br/>Thank you for your work and your sharing.<br/><br/>Sincerely,<br/><br/>Mary Martha Pazos Dear David,

I would second what Tony Corballis said, and also add that I was touched when you asked us to tell you which photo of you we liked the most for your newsletter. Somehow this gave you an air of vulnerability that radiated very positive things and built rapport.

Thank you for your work and your sharing.
