When its time to scale your offerings, but its still just you, what are your growth options?

Well one proven strategy to exponentially multiply your reach – and your business revenues – is through a certification program. But don’t make the mistake of just teaching people a few of your key strategies to expand. Start by building your Power Tribe.

A Power Tribe is already asking for more. They are already raving fans and would gladly amplify your brand by representing your work to their clients. This is a perfect time to bring certification opportunities to them (and then everyone wins!)

Listen in on episode 153 of Amplify Your Success Podcast as I talk with Mitch Russo about how he launched his first business in his garage then later uncovered the exponential growth opportunities of certification (which led to a $25k business!)

Be sure to join the conversation in the Amplify Your Success Community and share your input there too.

 

Key Takeaways

>> What a Power Tribe is and how this discovery generated $25 million-dollar business.

>> How Mitch got started building certification programs for other companies (this gem is a must hear for every entrepreneur!)

>> When is the right time to launch your own certification program.

>> How long it takes to build, launch and grow a Power Tribes Certification Program of your own.

Do you know what your true North is?

Think of it like your own internal compass for decision making. When you have clarity on your core values, you’ll know exactly what “True North” is for you so you stay on course.

Tony Robbins says that core values "are like a compass that directs your life". Values motivate and demotivate, and they justify behavior.

Core values are intrinsic to your soul and when you align every decision and business growth action around them, you’ll accelerate growth. But when an entrepreneur gets off track from their values, they’ll put the brakes on and procrastinate without realizing why.

On episode 139 of Amplify Your Success podcast, I’d like to coach you through a high performance hack to help you turn your rocket boosters back on – by finding YOUR core values.

Be sure to join the conversation in the Amplify Your Success Community and share your input there too.

 

Key Takeaways

  • How to clarify your own core values
  • Why values are your compass when it comes to making growth decisions
  • The difference between values and priorities
  • What to do when your values are in conflict and you are procrastinating or feel trapped

Did you know that thinking more like a CEO can actually catapult your business and be a catalyst for big growth spurts? Being a CEO (or what I like to call the Chief Entrepreneurial Officer) is a role we have to fill as a business grows.

But a lot of entrepreneurs don’t really like the idea of being CEO. In their minds they believe that they’ll no longer get to do the activities that bring them joy and satisfaction. So they avoid the CEO type activities, and plunge their fast-growing small business into chaos, uncertainty or stagnation.

On episode 138 of Amplify Your Success podcast, I’d like to make becoming CEO a no-brainer and put some fun back into the role. Or at least, make it so simple that you can tackle those tasks fast so you always have plenty of time to do what you enjoy most. And you never know, you might just realize you were born to be a BOSS!

Be sure to join the conversation in the Amplify Your Success Community and share your input there too.

 

Key Takeaways

  • The two truths and five myths about being CEO as you take your business to the next level
  • Why communication is a CRITICAL skill (and how it can implode your business and demoralize your team when it’s missing.)
  • How to Strategically Plan like a boss but keep it super simple
  • Why the CEO must nurture and cultivate relationships with other Center’s of Influence
  • A commonly under-developed muscle for most entrepreneurs as they emerge into the CEO role.

Finding words to explain what you do so naturally can feel really complicated! I’ve noticed it’s a common challenge area for coaches, healers and service-based entrepreneurs to communicate what they do in a way that…

 

… Helps the people understand what they do

… In a compelling and succinct way

… So that the right prospects know you solve their problem!!

 

After mentoring and coaching expert-preneurs for almost 20 years, I can quickly spot an “over-thinker” who is struggling to share their value proposition when they get asked, “So what do you do?” or have a chance to pitch their business to a room full of people.

On episode 133 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, listen in to an On Air Coaching session with Melinda Broadstone who helps entrepreneurs uncover their unique energy style. When I met her, I knew she was powerful but she just couldn’t find the right words to explain her genius quickly. If you struggle with messaging, you’ll love eavesdropping in to this session.

Key Takeaways

  • An important question to ask yourself to help you uncover the best words that describe you and your business solutions.
  • What to do when you have competing advice about your messaging from different coaches and mentors.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you just followed other people’s promotional plans for your business?

Well I can tell you that once in a while you’ll score. But more often they fail.

Why? Because when you just emulate what someone else does without customizing the strategy to your unique energy and offerings, it won’t have the same magnetic pull! Doing a launch to drive traffic to your offer can catapult your results – if you take the time to “reverse engineer” the steps to fit your genius and how your customers buy.

On episode 132 of Amplify Your Success podcast, I’ll take you behind the scenes of a few epic fails that I’ve had around launches as well as what’s worked best over the last couple of years so you can avoid that “epic fail” in your business.

Be sure to join the conversation in the Amplify Your Success Community and share your input there too.

 

Key Takeaways

  • Why doing what others are doing to promote their offers can be a recipe for failure.
  • The three important factors to incorporate to avoid launch exhaustion, fatigue and burn out “post promotion.”
  • What happened when I had a few repeated failures that caused me to shut everything down and start over!
  • My #1 most favorite way to overcome list fatigue and tap into a new source of leads for a promotion or launch.

Wouldn’t it be amazing if your clients became your most valuable salesforce? Think about it.

They use your services, buy your products, come to your events – and then they are out there RAVING about your business to their friends. Now, those friends become your clients too. That’s the power of creating celebrity customer experiences. A happy customer will drive more leads and sales than you ever could with the best marketing efforts.

But many entrepreneurs are making client care their lowest priority and their sales – and profits – are suffering because of it. My guest this week, Jill Raff, grew up in one of the best models for customer happiness as her parents owned McDonald’s franchise #150.
