APRIL TELESEMINARS


Creating Effective Business Cards and Brochures

While I teach Holistic Practitioners how to have an online web presence (on the internet) to increase visibility, make connections with potential clients and other professionals that will refer to you, I know there’s LOADS of business right in your own community.

This is why it is crucial to have a business card to let them know of your services. But are you wondering if you’re business card is effective? Do you give them information but never get a call or email from this person and wonder why?

In this crucial class we’ll be covering:

* Essential elements that must be on your business card
* Have your marketing materials stand out and get noticed
* How to know if you should create your own marketing materials or hire someone
* Getting your first business card and brochure out or revamp your existing ones


Open Coaching: Question and Answer Call

So bring your questions and dilemmas and I’ll answer them on the spot and provide laser coaching to assist you.

This call is invaluable, as I share my years of expertise in coaching to Holistic Practitioners. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been in Practice for years, you’ll learn from the many great questions that are asked by other Practitioners.

MARCH TELE-SEMINARS

Your Products and Services Menu

Many Holistic Practitioners start out by offering single sessions which is a great way to begin your practice. However many potential clients and patients might not be ready to buy a session with you and you might be losing valuable customers.

You also have loyal customers that have experienced your sessions and are thinking to themselves… this is really good, what else does he or she offer?

Having a product and services menu is about offering your expertise in different forms so that your potential clients have a variety to choose from. It’s also an effective way to build a loyal client base.

Giving client options of ways to work with us boosts our practice, encourages referrals and increase our income. It also puts clients in a place of choice, it’s a win-win situation all the way around.

Creating e-books, audios and offering teleclasses and workshops are just some of the exciting ways to start creating your product and services menu, and it’s a lot easier than you think when you’re shown how.

In this powerful class you’ll learn exactly how to start to build this menu and start offering a variety of products and services that you’re excited to create and your customers thrilled to buy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How to Gain Referrals

You’ll often hear that your practice will grow from referrals. Many Holistic Practitioners will tell me that their best clients say “I’ll tell others about you” or say they will send them referrals and never do.

Practitioners will also confess to me that they are shy and hesitant to ask clients for referrals, even though they know they should. “I don’t want to look desperate” they’ll tell me.

In this class AnaMaria is going to interview guest expert Jobie Summer known as the “Referral Queen.” We’ll cover how exactly to get referrals in a way that’s authentic and non-pushy. Jobie will talk about the mistakes that service professionals will make in gaining referrals and how you can avoid them.

This is an essential call to attend for every Holistic Practitioner… don’t miss it!

SEPTEMBER CALLS:

How to Offer a “Free Taste” of Your Service Without Taking Your Time or Money…and Has Your Potential Clients Wanting to Work with You!

It’s crucial that clients ‘taste’ or experience a bit of your sessions so they can get to know, like and trust you. Because when they do, they will book sessions and refer others.

In this class I’ll teach you my three most effective strategies that work to get clients now and in any season.

If you don’t have enough clients and are still giving your sessions away for free (it’s okay, we’ve all been there!) this class is a must.

These easy, effective methods are perfect to draw clients to you,  because they work quickly and can be done on a shoestring budget!
