Want to meet Richard Branson and the Dalai Lama?

I’ve been wanting to meet Richard Branson for AGES.

And I may just have found out a way to do it, and perhaps get you in as well.

And as a bonus, they are talking about throwing in the Dalai Lama 🙂

Are you interested, if I can swing it?

Which one would YOU most want to meet?

Please share your thoughts at the blog comments below.

Authentic Woman Experience


The Road

Check out my video poem:

http://life-coaching-resource.com/blog/2009/07/poem-the-road/

 

What’s the Worst that Could Happen?

I was SO impressed by Greg getting 7 MILLION views on youtube, and by his commitment to saving the planet, that I reached out to him
personally.

Back then he told me he’d write a book, and he has!

It’s available, it’s making waves, and it just might be the tipping point to having us really make changes in caring for the planet.

I encourage you to get his book, and buy ten copies as gifts for your friends.

Visit gregcraven.org to order the book (link on the top of the right
hand column).


2. FEATURE: Word of Truth

This is an excerpt from Warrior of the Light by Paulo Coelho.

***

A Warrior of the Light is reliable.

He makes a few mistakes, he sometimes thinks he is more important than he really is, but he does not lie.  

When people gather around the fire, he talks to his friends, male and female.  He knows that his words are stored in the memory of the Universe, like a testimony of what he thinks.

The Warrior asks himself: “Why do I talk so much, when often I am incapable of carrying out everything I say?”

His heart replies: “When you defend your ideas in public, you then have to make an effort to live accordingly.”

It is because he believes that he is what he says he is that the Warrior ends up becoming precisely that.

3. The Personal Touch

I’m excited as I write this. Things are flowing with my publicity campaign (to promote the upcoming book) that sometimes seems ‘pie in the sky’, and sometimes seems inevitable. (see http://tinyurl.com/bestjob2) Had calls today with Microsoft, the American Heart Association, and a division of Web.com. And things are still alive with AARP and the American Cancer Society. I’m a little giddy with the potential players and numbers we’re talking about, and keep being surprised I’m having realistic, adult conversations with some of the biggest, most respected organizations on the planet. What an entirely new world.

The last few days I’ve only set 1 or two small work tasks and let the rest of the day flow with whatever I want to do. I really quite like it. It started with reading and chess and movies, and somehow has ended in high powered phone conversations. I’m loving my home in Mill Valley, my friends, Sweat Your Prayers, bughouse chess (I’m a little addicted….when I study something I really study it), dating….life is good and I feel blessed.

Love,

David

Need book keeping salvation

Do you know of a really good book keeper based in Australia?

By good, I mean one who is friendly, conscientious, detail oriented, and deadline-oriented?

Could you please post any recommendations you have, and WHY, in the comments below.

Much appreciated,

David

Would you introduce me?

I’m ready to pull back the veil on a ‘secret’ project I’ve been working on for 5 months now.

It’s potentially big, really big. And I could use your help regarding introductions.

I’m bit nervous, but you’re on my R&D team, and if I can’t ask my R&D team, who can I ask?

Watch this awesome 2 min pitch video I created for potential sponsors – it will fill you in:

WOULD YOU INTRODUCE ME?
Do you know any executives (marketing preferred) at Fortune 500 companies, who might like to use this campaign as a tool to reach up to 100 million people with their product?

Here’s my initial wish list, but feel free to suggest if you have a contact:

– Bank of America
– Google
– Yahoo
– Apple
– USA Today
– (any global hotel chain)
– (any global airline)
– (any global bank)
– (any major newspaper or business magazine)
– (any high end web/video/media production company)
– REI
– Best Buy
– Virgin Atlantic or Virgin America
– Qantas

If you can make an introduction, please email tresina AT solutionbox.com with your phone number and I’ll contact you directly.

Got an idea? Suggestion? Brainstorm? I’d LOVE to read them here on the blog (please don’t send these to Tresina):

And thanks in advance for your support!

David
P.S. If you know someone high up at a really big non profit, we still have have room for two beneficiaries too.

MM #110: Gain More Clients with a Coaching FAQ

1. Announcements/Offers

Supporting the World and Ourselves

Join people like myself and Jack Canfield and other teachers at Humanity Unites Brilliance. Let’s end scarcity while reinventing the wealth (be it physical, mental, spiritual) around us.

Busting Loose From The Business Game

A new book has just been released that will rock your business and
career world. It’s called “Busting Loose From The Business Game.”
It offers a radical, amazing path out of the struggles associated
with playing the traditional “Business Game” — especially right
now with all the economic turmoil that’s in motion. If you’re open
minded enough to embrace the path, the results and transformations
you create will blow your mind. More about the book and a special book launch offer are here:

2. FEATURE: Gain More Clients with a Coaching FAQ

If you are drawing in clients with your website, you may be leaving potential clients unsure of exactly what you do. And a confused person is more likely to leave your site than email or call for an answer.

Why You Need an FAQ

People that hop on your web site are searching for answers to their problems. But saying you are a life coach or a business coach is too vague to make a connection. Bear in mind that a lot of people don’t know what coaching is. They haven’t had coaching before. They don’t understand the process.

A Frequently Asked Questions page gives them answers without making them work too hard to get them.

What To Include in Your FAQ

  • How many sessions you hold each month
  • If sessions are done by phone, web conferencing or face to face
  • What happens if a client terminates their coaching before the end of the month
  • Characteristics of who you like to work with
  • The length of sessions
  • Outline of a guarantee of service is one is available
  • Description of how coaching works
  • When and how clients pay for their sessions
  • How long you normally work with a client
  • Description of your specialities
  • Any other questions and answers you receive often

Formatting Your FAQ

The format that has worked best for me is the question and answer format.

So it would look something like this:

What is your coaching structure?

We will have a 45 minute phone coaching session three times a month.

Would you like to see a coaching FAQ?

You can check out Flaven Clayton’s FAQ here:

http://www.life-coaching-resource.com/life-coaching-questions.htm

 

***

Action:

1) List the questions you are most likely to receive from potential clients

2) Create your own Coaching FAQ

3) Share your Coaching FAQ at the blog
