Get passive income and more clients through an online course

September 28, 2016 By Jan Bear

Online learning

I had coffee with a young woman who has a successful consulting practice. She wants to have more time to spend with her 3-year-old. She likes working from home, and she likes having the boy with her.

If your whole business involves face-to-face meetings, there’s a limit to your earning and your … [Read more...]

How’s Your Website Working for You?

April 10, 2016 By Jan Bear

Strategic planning

Just a few years ago, it was possible to debate whether a business needed a website. Those days are gone. Most business owners — professionals, entrepreneurs, coaches — know they need one. But I still see websites that, frankly, stink. Maybe they’re home-made. Maybe they were top of the line 5 years ago. Maybe they were just the best the business owner could afford at the time. But 5 years is a long time in internet years. Software Changes New standards arise, and old ones fall. Hackers … [Read more...]

Establish Your Worth to Your Clients

November 3, 2015 By Jan Bear

Establish Your Value with a Book

In a post at LinkedIn, Luke Havard addresses the complaint that "You're too expensive." We've all heard that from prospects or clients, and sometimes it's true. If it's the wrong client or if that client doesn’t truly need your services, then it's time for a friendly farewell. But Luke points out three sources of that observation: The prospect doesn't see any difference between you and your competition. The prospect doesn’t believe you can solve the problem or help reach the … [Read more...]

I'm sure that someone has said to you, “You ought to write a book.” Am I right? Maybe you pooh-poohed the idea because, well, writing sucks the life out of you, and it takes too much time, and publishing is a shark tank, and writing is for other people. Yes, there are people who people who find pleasure in the flow of words that comes before having anything to say. That’s fine.
