Business Coaching? Why Develop Coaching Skills if You are Not a Coach?

Business coaching is one of the fastest growing areas despite today's economy.  This is a quick invitation to a free webinar I am giving tonight - August 20th at 8 p.m. Central. 

What I am going to go over may be the missing piece to what you need to get your business to take off - even if you have never entertained the idea of becoming a coach yourself.

You don't have to be a coach in order to think like one.  And thinking like a coach can save you time, money, effort and your nerves!

I am really excited to get to present this webinar and I'd love for you to be there!  To register, go to The Coaching Mindset.  I'll see you there!

Renegade Professional is Open - How to Sign Up

Renegade Professional is open again as of this morning, June 22, 2009. 

The first 25 people who sign up for Professional under me will win a one-hour coaching session with one of our coaches from our new coaching program.  If you are one of the winners, I will send you information on how to redeem this free session along with suggestions on when best to use it.

Renegade Professional is a step by step training program for people who want to learn how to market their small business online in order to get more customers for less cost.

If you are already a member of the free Renegade University, log into your account and click on the link at the top of the page that says "Upgrade to Professional."  This is important because it will keep you connected to your university guide.

If you have never experienced Renegade internet training, and therefore do not have a guide,  then you can open a free account and then upgrade to professional by clicking on the Upgrade to Professional link at the top of the page.

Or, you can go directly to the Renegade Professional sales page. 

Keep in mind that if you sign up using this link, you will be signing up with me as your guide.  If you already have a guide, please be sure to sign up using their link.  The easiest way to do that is to register through your free Renegade University account.  This will ensure that you are not parted from your original guide.

Once you sign up, you have 30 days  to see if our training is a good fit for you. After that, the training is yours for $49.95 a month. 

You will learn how to generate leads for your business --- no matter what that business is -- even if you are not skilled at the computer.  You will also learn how to earn additional income that can help you pay for your training and marketing, as you build your primary business.

You all know how I feel about this program and it's founder, Mike Klingler.  Now we get to benefit from training by Ann Sieg as well.  It has made such a difference for me and I encourage you to connect with the Renegade students - here are your future business partners, and the people who can help you, encourage you and befriend you!

What I most love about this program is the fact that it grows with it's students.  Since I joined in Feb. 2008, there have been more trainings added, and more programs designed to further my efforts in my business.  And there are even more projects in the works which will be of tremendous value to our members.

As you go through the sales letter, you will be offered additional courses.  While it is true that some of them will go up in price the next time they are offered, what is important is for you to decide which (if any) are right for you at this moment.  All of the programs offered have a thirty day period for you to decide if you have found what you want.

If you have questions, I'll be glad to answer - not likely to hear from me in the next couple of days since Ill be busy helping the team with new members - but I will get back to you as soon as I possibly can.

Let the Romance begin~

Best Internet Marketing Strategies - Renegade Professional Teaches Internet Marketing Strategies and this Bonus is One of Them!

Best internet marketing strategies - how the heck do you figure out which are really the best when there are so many to choose from?

Internet Marketing Strategies that Work

Obviously, the best marketing strategies are the ones that work in terms of bringing in potential buyers and then converting that into sales.

But these also have to be marketing techniques that work for YOU.  You have to be comfortable with the marketing you do - it has to reflect who you are as a person and a business owner. 

The way you use the internet to market can tell a lot about who you are.

How to Determine Your Best Marketing Strategy

1. Are you using a marketing method you enjoy? 

If article marketing is how you do most of your marketing on the internet ask yourself how much you are enjoying the process?  Do you like to write? Do you like writing about the subject you have chosen?

If you hate writing, it will probably come across in your articles. Your visitors may not realize where the negative feeling they are getting is coming from.  But they will pick up on it and are not likely to stick around long enough to find out what your business is about.

If you're having fun with it, your visitors will have fun as well.  Watch any Frank Kern video - video marketing is his thing.  He's having a great time and we do too.  He's silly, campy, irreverent, and once in a while serious, but he leaves you wanting more. 

2. Social Media for People Who Like Hanging Out with Other People

Do you have a real interest in other people and what they are doing?  Or are you just going through the motions because someone told you social marketing is the way to go with your business?

Social marketing only works if you are genuine.  You have to be willing and able to take the time to develop relationships with other people on the social sites and that means getting to know them on more than one level.  Look for people who share interests other than business. 

Do you have a hobby?  Like a particular kind of music? Is there something going on in the news that you would enjoy discussing with others?

You'll make better connections with people if they get to know you as a person first. The old "people buy from people, not companies" saying is very true. 

A word of caution - what you put out on the internet stays on the internet.  Don't engage in gossip.  I've seen people leave a comment bashing some author or product that begins with "I've never read the book or used the program, but yeah, it's a scam!" 

Making a judgement on something you have just admitted you know nothing about is not going to establish you as an expert.  Be careful what you say on the internet!  Even if the comment has nothing to do with business, it can still come back to haunt you.

3. Use Internet Marketing Strategies that Reflect Who You Are

You want to establish trust with you audience.  You do this by letting them get to know you.   No mystery here!  You want to be as open as possible.

Mike Dillard is a young, driven, single guy who enjoys the good life.  His marketing strategies are hard hitting with a lot of straight talk.  He is the expert and you can either take his advice or go follow someone else.  You'll see lots of photos in his marketing of what working hard and being successful in business can bring - fast cars, adventurous vacations, living the good life.

Eben Pagan is more of an intellectual and spiritual person.  He takes excellent care of himself mentally and physically and his internet marketing reveals this.  Just TRY to find a wrinkle on Eben's shirt when you watch his videos.  He is always impeccably groomed.  He is a perfectionist. 

Anne Sieg is a wife and mother who home schooled her boys.  Theirs is a close knit family who work and play together.  She wants to bring out the potential in her customer much in the same way she wanted to bring out the potential in her sons.  Her marketing strategies are designed to protect her clients from making the same mistakes she did in business.

Mike Klingler is a down to earth born-to-be-teacher.  His value system is reflected in his belief  that anything he learns and can pass on to someone else is better for everybody.  He is calm and not easily ruffled.  If there is a heated debate going on a forum, Mike will come out as the voice of reason. Mike's internet marketing strategies are very much based on sharing what he knows freely and openly.  He packs as much value and thought into his free programs as he does the paid material.

Each of these people are extremely successful.  Part of what got them there is the fact that part of their marketing strategy is to let us get to know them as people.  We are attracted to the people who are like us or at least like what we wish to become.

So who are you?  What do you want to get across to your market?  What will it be like for them to do business with you?  What problems can you solve for them and how will you solve them?

Try Out Several Marketing Strategies

The only way to really find out which is the best internet marketing strategy for you is try several and see which ones really appeal.

I went through this process at Renegade University and then Renegade Professional.  The internet marketing training I got there not only exposed me to several different ways to market my business, but it took me from computer novice to recognized expert.

If you've followed me in my progress, you know that 18 months ago I had no marketing, business or sales background and the only thing I knew how to do on the computer was send an email.

Renegade Professional allowed me to try out several different types of marketing and how to use them effectively.  I learned not only how to find my target market but how to take my business in the direction that would best serve that market.

One of the ways I am now serving my audience is by coaching.  Which leads me to the bonus!  I am offering a special bonus when you sign up for Renegade Professional through me.  The offer is limited and you'll see why when you click to see what it is.

I will be honored to serve as your guide at the University and will look forward to working with you.

Ann Sieg and Mike Klingler are directly responsible for providing me with the tools I needed to grow my business over the past year. I've been able to develop skills, yes, but also I've become a part of an incredible community of other business owners. We have supported one another, learned from each other and formed joint ventures. We've become friends.

What Can Renegade Professional Do for You?

For Baby Boomers or the "Computer Challenged" - Renegade Professional offers actual step by step, mouse click by mouse click training on how to market your business.

For Small Business Owners - Ann Sieg and Mike Klingler will show you how to stand out from all the other businesses competing for customers on the internet so that the right people can find you and your business.

Apply What You Learn at the Very Moment You Learn It

This blog was first created with two windows open on my computer. One window showed Mike Klingler's screen as he demonstrated exactly where to go and what buttons to push. The other screen was where I followed along and actually created my account, chose a template, and wrote my first articles.

At the end of each tutorial, I had not only learned about blogging, but I had actual content to show for my time. This ability to apply what you learn at the very moment you are learning it is what makes the program so unique.

So please, check back tomorrow for the direct link and secure your spot. There's always hype before a launch to create a sense of urgency. In this case, there is no exaggeration - the number of spots are limited so that new students can receive the attention and support Renegade Professional is known for.

See you on the inside!
