December doesn’t have to be a slow business month
Since it's the first day of December, let's talk about the month. In my opinion, December gets a bad rap compared to the other months. It's not uncommon for coaches to shut down starting December 1st, as they think to themselves: "Nobody is hiring a coach so close to...

Will SCC work for your coaching niche?

No Black Friday sale here :/
I'm not doing a Black Friday sale this year. Come to think of it, I can't recall ever having done one. I guess that makes me the black sheep online, since it seems like everyone else does them. Instead of a Black Friday sale, I've been giving several bonuses to...
Why I don’t have any $7 offerings
An Internet Marketer once asked me why I don't have any cheap (ie: $7) offerings. If someone wants to pay me for help, it starts at a few hundred dollars for my DIY online programs or $497 for a one year subscription to my print newsletter where subscribers can "pick...
