034 3 Shifts from 20K Months to 100K Months

If you consistently hit 20K months and feel ready to reach the 100K months threshold, you must know one thing: you can't use what got you to 20K months to make 100K months.

Today, I’ll share the 3 major shifts I made to take my business from 20K to 100K months. I’ll talk about the changes you need to implement in your business model, branding, team building, and money mindset. I'll also share real-world numbers from my business, how to save tons of money by mastering copywriting, and some unspoken truths about ads and marketing agencies.

What You'll Learn:

Why is it easier to scale a smaller number of programs

The difference between being the CEO and the "inspired idea person" of your company

Should we always trust our intuition and follow what it dictates?

The four things that might be causing a temporary drought in your client's signing rates

How to avoid ego-driven decisions when building your team

The best way to deal with your branding, social media ads and advertising

How to save tons of money by improving your copywriting skills

How your money mindset is blocking you from achieving your goals

A massive part of scaling your business is understanding that it requires a more efficient usage of your time and energy. You'll need a new level of thinking, the team you build must take as much as they can from your plate, and your actions should be led by this simple question: what does the business need from YOU most?

036 10 Reasons Your Sales Calls Aren't Converting

A client recently asked me, “Rose, do you have a checklist for all the reasons why I’m not converting my sales calls when selling my coaching programme?” This episode is born out of that question.

I used to convert sales around 30% of the time, with that figure now reaching between 75%-85%. Non-conversion usually occurs because my offering was never really the right fit for them anyway. So, the way I see it, I achieve an 100% success rate when converting leads to clients. Today, I’ll share the 9 most common reasons (it was supposed to be 10, but apparently, I can’t count) why your sales calls aren’t converting.

The questions you’ll learn to ask yourself:

Are the leads that are getting on the calls with you the right people in the first place? Are they qualified leads?

Is the offer right for them? Are you selling the right thing to the right person?

Are you articulating the value of your offer clearly enough?

Are you people pleasing or are you leading the conversation?

Are you in CERTAINTY about your offer, the processes you are taking them through and the results you are helping them achieve?

Is it clear why this person would work with you over others?

If they don’t make a decision on the call, do you clarify what’s holding them back from a ‘yes’?

Can you offer a non-judgemental, safe space for them to share their concerns and worries?

Are you too attached to the sales outcome?

We all ultimately want to make sales, but don’t be too attached to the outcome. Although it can be challenging if you are struggling with financial constraints, you should always trust that the right people WILL sign up to work with you.
