Thinking Kindly About Your Business

Helen Burton — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 16:20:53 +0000

“One kind word can warm three winter months.”
Japanese Proverb

Do you think and say kind words about your business? Unfortunately, most of us think about what is not going right.

When we have successes our feelings turn towards excitement and joy. Why is it so hard focusing on those times instead of finding things to worry about?

Simply, we are human beings and wired to think that way.

When you start thinking about your business in a negative way. Stop, take a deep breath and say in a powerful voice, kind words about your business. An example would be, “My business is achieving its goal by helping business people.”

Even though this little exercise sounds simple it is very hard to do. It takes practice, practice, and more practice before it becomes a new habit. Remember…a habit takes about 21 days to become natural.

Constantly think, “ I will say kind words about my business.”

Please share your experiences with the Love Yourself – It Matters! Community. Sharing our experiences and thoughts with each other enables us to create successful businesses in a loving way.

Client Marketing 101

Helen Burton — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 20:02:40 +0000

Have you ever found yourself sitting in front of a potential client, trying to keep the person engaged about what you do and how coaching can assist them?

And before you know it, you throw the ‘the-coach-who-listens’ out the window, and proceed to talk non-stop, for the next 20 minutes. Ugh!!

We have all been there!

So how do you overcome your infatuation with coaching and still effectively sell to a prospective client?

Here are a few steps that work successfully for me:

Prepare an agenda before your meeting.
Listen, listen, listen and let the person know you are truly interested in what they have to say.
Answer any questions sticking to the point and keep it short.
Invite them to be a client when the ‘aha moment’ happens.
Keep the meeting short.
Remember your prospective client, cares more about themselves than your passion for coaching.
