Is it better to invest your energy into creating a dream customer and satisfying him or is it just following what your interest tells you and making yourself your dream customer (and your niche)?

Hey, Synthesizers! 😁👋🏼 I hope you're all having a great start to Q2! Since I posted last (see here), I've made some mental connections and want to make some moves. For almost a decade, we've taught fitness-focused coaches to be spectacular communicators & salespeople for their own offers. But my hunger for teaching folks outside of that niche has become unbearable! Plus, the sales coaching that we offer is lost in a sea of other taught components - diluting what I now know to be my superpower 😅 To get to my point... I'd love to help 2-3 Synthesizers that would love 1:1 sales coaching with me in exchange for a video & written testimonial - no money to be paid. This would help us to begin building a portfolio of results for our future endeavour and give 2-3 people some much-needed high-touch sales coaching 😁 I'm super happy to chat with people over Zoom with a coffee. Worst case scenario, you make a friend. PS - @Andrew Kirby I hope this is okay to post 🤞 PPS - *didn't tell them how to get in touch* Just drop a comment on here or a private message on Skool 💚

Hello again 👋 Here's a quick framework to help you launch your first paid coaching call. Start: When I was in college, I earned $19 an hour teaching Chinese kids English online. Last month, I sold 10 coaching calls for $249 an hour. What made the difference? TL;DR I went from teaching something many people can teach (English as a Second Language to Children) to teaching something few people can teach (How to Grow and Monetize your Twitter with a high ticket offer) Here are the exact steps I took: 1. Gave Free Calls to my ideal clients Over the past 6 months, I've spoken to hundreds of people on Twitter. The result was, I knew exactly what beginner one-person biz people were struggling with and how I could help them. And by selling to my shadow, it was fairly easy to help someone 1-2 steps behind me. 2. I launched a simple sales Letter on Google Docs Instead of getting fancy, I just copied Russel Brunson's Hero's Journey Framework and plugged in my own story and experience. The letter helped me: • Highlight who the call was (not) for • Describe my ideal prospect's problem • Tell the reader the tangible outcome of booking a call with me 3 people booked immediately when I tweeted the link. 3. I created (real) Scarcity and Urgency Look, most people are busy. They don't have time to spend all day on calls. Neither do I. So over the month of March, I constantly repeated that I was only taking 15 calls and the calls may never be available at the $249 price point again. If you want action, give people a reason to act. At the end of every call, I asked three questions which helped me book more calls: • Do you have any feedback for the call? • Did you feel like it was worth the $249 price point? • Would you mind taking 3-4 minutes to write a testimonial? Everyone agreed to the testimonial. And they became my best marketing material. The takeaway for you? People will pay you for your expertise, you just need to communicate clearly and show them how.

Hi, guys just wanted to update you about my situation. I managed to get my first client on a call and this is an opportunity to close my first one on one coaching. I don't know what to say in order to close the deal. This is LITERALLY the first time I'm doing it. All kinds of tips are accepted. Wish me luck.
