  • The Importance of Knowing Your Numbers, with Leandra Nisbet

    Leandra Nisbet is the founder of The Stingray Advisory Group. Her focus is on making complex business tasks approachable and actionable for entrepreneurs. She's passionate about empowering business owners to leverage their numbers effectively.

    We dove into some of the biggest mistakes that entrepreneurs make in their online business, as it relates to finances.

    First Mistake: Not Separating Personal and Business Finances:

    Many entrepreneurs overlook the importance of separating personal and business finances. Having a dedicated business account streamlines financial tracking and saves time and stress in the long run.

    Second Mistake: Trying to Serve Everyone:

    You must niche down and be intentional with your target audience. Trying to serve everyone dilutes your brand and marketing efforts. Focus on engaging with the right audience for your business.

    Third Mistake: Lack of Systems and Processes:

    Not having systems in place can hinder business growth. Establish processes for project management, expense tracking, and income management to ensure efficiency and scalability.

    Project Management Tools:

    We discussed project management tools like Zoho Projects and Asana, emphasizing the importance of centralized platforms for effective project management.

    Cash Flow Management:

    Cash flow is essential for business survival. Regularly track income and expenses, analyze historical data, and forecast future cash flow to make informed financial decisions.

    Three Steps to Start Tracking Numbers:

    Begin by reviewing expenses: Analyse your bank statements to understand where your money is going. Implement systems for income management: Set up automated invoice reminders to ensure timely payments. Develop a budget: Start with a simple budget template or use accounting software to track income and expenses regularly.

    Expense Planning Calculator:

    Leandra offers an expense planning checklist and calculator to help entrepreneurs track their finances effectively. Remember: Knowledge is power. Don't be afraid to use data to your advantage and take control of your business!

  • In this week's episode - the amazing Julia shares her passion for helping women, especially moms, achieve a balanced life, successful business, and make an impact while avoiding burnout.

    She outlines her approach, combining business coaching with DNA frequency activations to assist in personal growth.

    Julia explains DNA activations, describing the various forms they can take, including language, codes, sacred geometry, and her unique method using frequencies. She emphasizes the presence of "junk DNA" and how activating it enhances the manifestation of desires.

    Frequencies and vibrations are discussed, with Julia explaining how her process works from the inside out, helping individuals naturally align with their desired vibrations. She elaborates on the transmission of instructions energetically, drawing parallels with mRNA vaccines and their impact on DNA.

    Frequencies are highlighted as powerful tools for achieving various outcomes, drawing from Julia's awakening in her spiritual journey. She uses the analogy of radio transmission to explain how information is transmitted from one's higher self to another's through frequencies.

  • I've got a story to share that takes me back to a time when I made a serious mistake in my online coaching business – one that almost drove me crazy. Today, I want to spill the beans on what happened and how it nearly cost me the success I was dreaming of. So, grab your favorite beverage and settle in for a real talk.

    Alright, let's rewind a bit. Back then, my coaching business was all about high ticket offers. Sounds good, right? Well, not exactly. I realized I was missing out on connecting with so many incredible people who couldn't quite reach those high prices. Lesson learned: high ticket ONLY can be a double-edged sword.

    Picture this: I, too, have been on the other side as a coaching participant. Jumping from one 10k program to another, only to find out that some didn't quite match up to what I was already teaching myself. Cold sweat, anyone? It hit me hard that there had to be a better way to bring value BEFORE people dive into your high ticket

    Enter the hero of the story – micro offers. These little gems changed the game for me. They became the secret sauce to building trust with potential clients. Think about it – lower barriers, specific problem-solving, and immediate wins. It's like giving them a taste of success right from the start.

    Now, let me share my Micro Offer Formula. It's not about those gimmicky, valueless trip wires. No, no. These offers are jam-packed with value, delivering on a specific promise. We're not throwing in the kitchen sink, but we're definitely stirring up desire for the next step, whether it's a mid-tier offer or diving straight into the high ticket program.

    One of our fantastic clients recently woke up to a sale from her brand new micro offer. It's like having a 24/7 trust-building machine working for her. Imagine that – a machine that keeps on giving and ascending clients into her coaching program. Beautiful, isn't it?

    Alright, lovely souls, here's the deal. I've got something special for you. Head over to my Instagram, and drop me a DM with the word "masterclass." Why? Because I want to invite you to a free masterclass where I spill all the secrets on creating your own converting micro offer in just three days. Trust me; it's a game-changer. Can't wait to see you there!

  • This week's episode is a short yet impactful one, focusing on a powerful experience that recently reminded the host of a valuable lesson from 2017. The central theme revolves around questioning what we believe to be true and examining the stories we tell ourselves.

    I delve into personal insights provided by their mindset coach, Kashia Rutkowiak, emphasizing the ability to create narratives in our minds that influence decision-making. This self-reflection extends to personal and business aspects, and I would love you to identify and challenge stories you may be telling yourself.

    The episode draws parallels to common narratives in business, especially those heard during sales calls. I encourage you to analyze your beliefs at different stages of your business, from top-of-funnel cold audiences to client delivery, and question the validity of your narratives.

    Top of Funnel:

    Reflect on stories told about attracting cold and warm audiences. Challenge beliefs that may not align with the actual situation.

    Middle of Funnel:

    Explore narratives around the latest strategies and tactics for building email lists. Examine the reasons people join your email list and question assumptions.

    Nurturing and Sales Mechanisms:

    Analyze beliefs regarding sales mechanisms. Address any preconceived notions from past experiences or external influences.

    Client Acquisition:

    Question beliefs about the affordability of your niche. Challenge assumptions that may hinder successful client acquisition.

    Client Delivery:

    Reflect on personal insecurities regarding client satisfaction. Acknowledge and challenge imposter syndrome and self-doubt.

    I encourage you to take time to scrutinize each aspect of your business model and personal life. By questioning beliefs, you may uncover stories you've been telling yourself that may not align with reality.

    If you found this episode valuable, don't forget to leave a review and share it with others. Sharing insights with fellow experts and coaches can lead to those enlightening "aha" moments.

  • Welcome back to the Maeve Ferguson podcast, and I'm thrilled to dive into Episode 104.

    Today, I want to share some insights on a topic that has transformed my coaching business – how to sign coaching clients without resorting to spammy DMs. Let me take you on a journey back to the early days of my business when I found myself sending messages that felt icky, spammy, and far from authentic.

    I remember desperately trying to initiate conversations with phrases like "I love your profile" or discussing mundane topics like the weather just to connect with potential clients. It didn't align with who I am, but at that time, I felt stuck, like I had no other choice if I wanted to grow my coaching business. Fast forward a few years, and I found myself on the living room floor, playing with my kids. Meanwhile, my coaching offers were seamlessly converting into paying clients on autopilot.

    The magic behind this transformation lies in what I call The Voice Note DM Sales System – a method that revolves around four critical components. First and foremost, we delve into pain points profiling and ideal client identification. If you're receiving less than seven inbound keywords a day, it's a signal that your points profiling needs refining. This is the foundation for creating content that resonates with your ideal clients, making them feel heard and understood.

    Moving on to the second component, crafting a script becomes crucial in converting leads into buyers. Through extensive testing, we've discovered that scripted voice notes significantly boost the know, like, and trust factor, resulting in higher conversion rates. The third component involves automating the process when the volume of inbound keywords becomes overwhelming.

    Lastly, attracting your ideal client to DM you with a specific keyword sets the entire process in motion. To recap, the four key components are pain points profiling, crafting a conversion script, automating the process, and attracting your ideal client.

    To help you implement this system, we've prepared a brand new micro-offer at the cost of a cup of coffee.

    This Voice Note DM Sales System guides you through uncovering pain points, understanding what your ideal client desires, providing a step-by-step conversion script, automating the process, and attracting your ideal client. Simply send the word VOICE to our Instagram to access a demo and witness the power of converting leads to clients on autopilot.

  • Welcome to the Maeve Ferguson Podcast, Episode 102.

    Today, we're delving into the transformative catalyst for your coaching business in 2024: crafting a coaching offer that truly converts.

    Context of the Coaching Offer:

    In our evergreen Lifestyle coaching business model, we employ a quiz funnel to hyper-qualify leads, leading to a micro-offer to build trust and eventually guide clients into the coaching program. This episode focuses on the crucial element: your main coaching offer.

    Painpoints Profiling:

    Start with "pain points profiling" to understand your ideal client's language deeply. Use tools like Social Blades to find the genuine language on platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook groups. Ensure you don't sanitize language; resonate by using their authentic expressions.

    Ideal Client Identification:

    Move beyond surface-level avatars; understand your ideal client profoundly. Aim for a level of understanding that lets you map out a day in their lives in perfect detail.

    Crafting a Stand-Out Approach:

    In the online space, a generic approach won't cut it. Develop a unique and standout coaching approach that distinguishes you from the crowd.

    Crafting Phases and Steps:

    Develop the phases and steps of your unique approach; these become the modules and lessons in your coaching program. Ensure a tight curriculum; avoid unnecessary content and focus on delivering results quickly.

    Crafting Toolkits and Bonuses:

    Address objections through carefully crafted toolkits and bonuses. These should not only expedite results but also directly counter objections your ideal client might have.

    Sales Page Creation:

    Your sales page should guide potential clients through the identification of their problems and the impact on their lives. Introduce your methodology as the solution and emphasize that your coaching offer is the implementation of this unique approach. Demonstrate how bonuses and toolkits directly address objections.

    Building Your Audience:

    Emphasize the importance of building an audience, especially if running an organic business without paid traffic. Consistent posting should target your ideal client, not just friends or colleagues.

    If you would love to discover HOW to do all of this, dive into our Coaching Offer Catalyst, available at the price of a cup of coffee.

  • Episode 100 - Generational Wealth and Financial Freedom through Real Estate - With Amelia Misenheimer

    This week marks our 100th episode, a milestone I never thought possible when I first considered starting this podcast. To celebrate, I've brought in a special guest, Amelia Misenheimer, a real estate investment coach. She's a close friend and an expert in this field, and I'm thrilled to have her on the show. Amelia Misenheimer, an Expert Real Estate Investment coach, joins us today. She specializes in guiding successful individuals who aim to build generational wealth and financial freedom through real estate. Amelia shares her background, mentioning she's been investing in real estate since 2010 and has been a full-time real estate professional since 2011. She enjoys working with successful individuals who want to diversify their investments, build generational wealth, increase passive income, and create a life of financial freedom through real estate. We discuss the key elements of real estate investing, focusing on generational wealth and passive income. We delve into the question of when someone is ready to start in real estate investment, emphasizing that there's never a perfect time – you just need to decide to take that first step. The conversation shifts to the advantages of real estate compared to other investment options. Amelia highlights how real estate typically moves inversely to the stock market, offers substantial appreciation potential over time, and can yield significantly higher returns on initial investments. We explore the initial steps for getting into real estate investing. They stress the importance of defining your "why" – whether it's to fund your children's education, retire early, or build a generational wealth portfolio. The goals you set will influence your approach and timeline in real estate investment. Amelia also mentions the benefits of real estate as a way to pass wealth to the next generation, thanks to various tax advantages and opportunities, making it a unique asset for building generational wealth. They tackle common misconceptions about real estate investing, including the idea that it requires a substantial amount of money to start. Amelia clarifies that it's possible to begin with minimal funds and gradually grow your investments. We discuss the importance of staying focused and not becoming overwhelmed when selecting properties, stressing the significance of defining clear goals and property criteria. Amelia shares a personal story about her first real estate investment, where she overlooked a major issue, leading to significant expenses and a valuable lesson. This experience highlights the importance of thorough due diligence. To take Amelia's Quiz click here To connect with Amelia click here
