I love it when a brand new client takes the marketing advice that comes with my design work and brings in two 'lost' prospects in less than 24 hours of our first call... and then in a week one of those prospects buys their MOST EXPENSIVE packages!

January was hard for me. I had goals of starting a new program, refreshing my promotional hoppers and having at least 10 blogs ready to go by February. It didn’t happen because I was so busy taking care of the work that pays NOW instead of the marketing prep that’ll pay out later. It’s easy to get distracted. That's no reason to be hard on yourself.

Honestly there will always be “more important” or “the house is on fire” excuses we can use to kill our marketing cycle. That’s why I always start off my clients with a Jump Start Session before we dig deeper into the long term success strategies. Quick results boost our energy so we can continue our marketing goals and plans.

Usually I don’t offer Marketing Jump Starts outside of my coaching programs, but in honor of Valentine’s and my love for you and your small business I’ve decided to make a special offer this one time. I don’t know if I will ever open this up again.

For $97 you get an hour of quick action marketing. We’ll look for your low hanging fruit and put together the best steps to get money that was left on the table in 2015 into your pocket now. If you have an idea or new goal for 2016 and want to just pick my brain, I can help you there too.

You can schedule this Jump Start anytime in 2016 (it’ll expire at the end of December) but the offer only lasts until one week after Valentine’s Day (offer ends February 20th) If you’re interested or have questions, just PM me or email me at [email protected] to get started.

Goals are great, right? New Year’s Resolutions have so much support during the moment and help you look into the future. After all, as Dave Ramsey is fond of saying “If you aim at nothing, you’ll hit it every time.” So how do we succeed at resolutions when statistically so many fail before February? 1) Don’t set a goal that “sounds good.” [ 362 more words. ]

In Kentucky we panic and raid the grocery whenever there’s a chance of flurries. In the country where I live, with just three inches of snow and more on its way tomorrow, almost everything has shut down. We’ve hunkered down with our copious supplies of mystery novels, firewood and munchies to wait it out until things melt. Some of you are laughing at me right now, it’s okay, I know we’re wusses about snow. [ 242 more words. ]

We're ashamed we let something drop, guilty for not having stuck to our resolution for the year. Here's what I tell them and what I'll tell you:
