Your Words Matter – How to easily attract your dream clients
That’s why it’s more important than ever that what you write, and share emits your personality, vision, and values and ultimately connects with your dream clients. It’s about creating a powerful connection with your dream clients based on you being you - your most authentic and transparent self. Love this quote by Oscar Wilde that definitely rings true - “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”

Best conversion tips for your website
A few weeks ago, I had a colleague reach out to me and wanted my thoughts on a new website that she had just launched for her mom’s business. I always find it curious and fascinating to look at new websites. Especially when it’s someone I know, and I have a bit of a backstory.

(As an aside, if you ever want me to look at your site, schedule a complimentary call with me, and I will give you some actionable feedback on it.) Creating a website…

How Sophisticated Are You and Your Clients? (Part 3)
When I first started out in online marketing, it never occurred to me to even remotely think or care about my client’s sophistication level when it came to my courses or services. There were way too many other things that sucked up my time – like – how to get new clients and start making money! Besides, how in the world does knowing WHAT my dream client’s sophistication level is, have anything to do with selling them something? I thought sophistication levels were only important when ordering wine, managing money, buying real estate, or dealing with technology. 😉 So if it never occurred to you to look at your dream…

Whose Shoes Are You Walking In?
Your customers, (this includes those that have not bought anything from you but who have read your blog and subscribed to your newsletter or visited your website) look to you for help, motivation, advice, entertainment, and valuable information. To really do this effectively you have to walk in your customers shoes. Everyday I encounter businesses that really miss the mark on this. One way to really get this is to BE your customer. Go to your website, cruise it like a potential customer, sign up for your optins. Even better, get your friends, colleagues, and those that work for you to do the same. Have them document what they see…
