Why is Network Marketing a Good Option for Spiritualpreneurs?

I am absolutely passionate about the idea that everyone in the world needs to be a coach – if nothing else, then at least a coach for themselves.

I believe the world of business, and really, the world overall would be an incredibly transformed place if people were able to self-coach.

This comes back to the business of being more conscious about your relationship with yourself, of how what you do is so strongly influenced by what you believe.

It is a matter of looking at the inner and the outer, the yin and the yang, coming together.

I see it happening in more and more business organizations where people are wanting to be trained in how to be more coach-like in their interactions with others.

It’s what comes to the fore, for example, when dealing with improving employee morale or building effective teams.

If more network marketers could activate that self-coaching ability in themselves and assist others in their organization to do the same, it would have a huge impact on the business! Read more

Did You Know That Joint Venture & Relationship Marketing Makes Business More Fun?

When you take a look at the trends in business today, you can see that even big corporations are starting to collaborate with each other.

PricewaterhouseCoopers interviewed the top 50 private companies and asked what has made the biggest difference in their growth.

Their answer?

Joint Venture and collaboration. These companies said that collaboration was critical to achieving their objectives – they made trillions through Joint Ventures!

What’s that about?!

They used to be competitors, and now they’re saying, “Hey, maybe it would be a good idea for us to join together.”

This is a complete shift of the human consciousness.

When you look at such best-selling books as Conversations With God, and then look at what the popular business books are, you see that people are buying a lot of business books with a spiritual basis.

They may call it all sorts of other things, but when you come right down to it, this genre of business books is all about the fact that everyone is connected, and it opens the possibility for everyone to come together and connect in an even more powerful way.

There are now an abundance of ways to conduct business from a place of integrity and collaboration, where both all the individuals within the organization and those on the other side of the table (the customers or clients) feel valued. Read more

When You Think of the Words Spirituality and Entrepreneur Together, What Comes to Mind?

Let me guess -  somebody walking around in la la land?

It’s getting awfully woo-woo and airy-fairy around here – right?

Not exactly.

Don’t let the touchy-feely implications fool you. As an entrepreneur, I am a rubber-meets-the-road, performance and productivity stickler!

When I left the corporate world, I traded in my MBO (Management By Objectives) for MYE (Managing Your Energy) because it gets more, better and faster results.

As it happens, it is also much more fun, along with being a better, more wholesome and satisfying way to live!

I did my time in corporate America as a high-powered business executive. Today, I’m coaching my former colleagues (for $500 an hour and up!) on how to explode their businesses and income by activating the spiritual energy of their thoughts, feelings and actions.

Spirituality and business have long been held as fragmented: there was spirituality, and there was business.
Today, I see the two starting to come together.

People are getting out of the box of seeing spirituality purely as religiosity, and are seeing it more as being conscious in terms of how their being in the world impacts all aspects of their lives.

It’s no longer a matter of being one person at home, another person in church and still another person in business. I see a blending happening, which is very encouraging!

I’ll often see the head of the corporation, a very senior executive, or a powerful entrepreneur who is himself on a path of personal growth, reading spiritually related books and wondering, “How do I put this into place in our organization?”

These people are already implementing the tools or processes from various philosophies or personal growth books and are seeing them make positive changes in their own lives – helping them see things in a new way and have different kinds of experiences.

They want the same thing for their organizations, and simply don’t know how to do it.

In some cases, the people who come to see me are simply looking for a way to help their people be more empowered. I help people activate their ability to self-coach – I call it “connecting with your inner coach.”

This means learning skills that are going to make people more effective team players, whether in the organization or in their home, so companies can readily see the value of it.

It’s similar to when “stress management” was the big thing in corporations; in the 80′s, everybody wanted to do stress management. Read more

Are You an Entrepreneur Who Wants to Build & Expand Your Business in a New Way?

When I was working in sales in the corporate world, I was very good at what I did.  I rose to the top of the company, and I was asked to train others in my skills as well.

But I wasn’t happy.  I felt like I was selling my soul for a paycheck!

I wanted something different…

If you’re a Spiritualpreneur like I am, you want more in your life.

You want health, balance, and a greater sense of collaboration and connection in your work.

The way to achieving this?  I discovered when I left my corporate career that it is all about using an Inner and Outer approach as an entrepreneur.

If you:

• Want to operate on a conscious level by bringing enduring transformation into the world
• Read books and watch movies that introduce you to spiritual universal principles
• Want to learn how to attract more of what you want
• Want to have more power within you and a vision of a business that fits you

You are ready to embark on an entrepreneur journey that will not only let you feel good about what you are doing with your business, but that will actually recession-proof your business as well!

Many of you want to apply these principles in your business, but don’t know how.

You feel that the old ways of doing things don’t support you.  The old ways of doing business and marketing by selling with hype and bullying people into taking action doesn’t feel good to you.

Maybe you even think that something is wrong with you since you feel that resistance! Read more

What Does Being a Spiritual Entrepreneur Mean to You?

My colleague, Chuck Abbott, joined me on a teleclass I held recently for Spiritualpreneurs. 

On the call I talked about what it means to be a Spiritualpreneur and how it can recession-proof your business.

I also had the great privilege of having 4 very successful Spiritualpreneurs join me to discuss what being a Spiritualpreneur means to them, and how it has helped them to succeed wildly in spite of all that has been going on in the economy lately!

Chuck Abbott, top Marketing Trainer, was one of the experts on my call.

Here is what he has to say about  what being a Spiritualpreneur means to him, along with his advice on something you can do to accelerate your success as an entrepreneur:

I’m married and I have 4 very active, very involved kids.  Before I started with my own business, I was working in a job that on the surface most people would probably look at as a dream job.

But, there was a really huge cost associated with it.

I was working for a very large consulting firm and I had a specialty that was in very high demand.  And while this meant that I was making more in a year than some people make in an entire lifetime, it also meant that I had to go where the work was needed.

That meant jumping on a plane, traveling the globe, and taking me away from my family, sometimes for long periods at a time.

Though it looked like I was living the American dream, I was missing out on so much – and not really living out my dream.

After what seemed like the hundredth time (and probably more), of one of my children telling me, “Oh you missed our school play”, or the open house or whatever was coming up for them, I finally said, “Enough is enough!”

Most people in my position probably would have gone to their boss, asked to scale back, and found a way to juggle the 2 roles.  But I don’t really believe in doing anything less than 100%, so I decided, “I’ll just quit”, and walked away.

I’m sure my friends and family thought I was nuts, and they may be partially right there!

I was walking away from a very high-paying job that offered a lot of security – but I had to do what was right for me and my family.

So there I am – I have no job, no money coming in and no real plan on what I needed or wanted to do. I had the confidence because I had been successful, and I said, “I’m gonna run my own business – this’ll be a piece of cake!”

Well, obviously, that couldn’t have been a more wrong statement!  Read more

Interested in Some Great Advice for the Conscious Entrepreneur?

Well last night I had the privilege of hosting an amazing call for the conscious entrepreneur to come on and hear more about the Spiritualpreneur awakening and how it can make such a huge difference in recession-proofing your business and your life.

I also had the honor of hosting a special expert panel on the call that was there to give their insights on what it means to do business at this level.

These folks have mastered using an Inner and Outer approach to becoming Spiritualpreneurs in their business with great success, and they graciously shared their wisdom on the call.

Along with me, the experts that joined me on this call really want to see you succeed and flourish as an entrepreneur, and I was so excited to be able to partner with them in this way to be able to offer this guidance to you on your own journey.

If you weren’t able to be on the call, I’ll be providing some of what they had to say right here in the blog for the next couple of days.

One of the experts on the call last night was Ken Foster of the Shared Vision Network – you can read what he had to say about his own beginning as a Spiritualpreneur, and something that he does every day that brings success to his business.

Do You Know the Value of Your Website as an Entrepreneur?

One of my own brilliances as an entrepreneur is being good at talking on the phone and helping people align with the values of coaching with me.

Honestly, the thought of putting a website together just glazed my eyes over!

That’s why I got some help to put everything together!  Really though, anyone can have a nice, pretty website.

What you need to understand is how this can create a database and potential revenue for you.

Publishing an Ezine used to be the great draw to build up your list.

Now though, statistics are showing that they aren’t enough of a draw for people to give you information about themselves.

That used to be the way, but now the way is by giving free offers and gifts.  People want free and immediate gifts that they can interact with, something they can hear or read.

The goal of creating your website is to create a database – a list – so that you can create, maintain and nurture relationships with your ideal clients and customers.

From the standpoint of the Internet, you can focus on something you can do that will leverage your time, efforts and create a database quickly.   Having a database:

• Assists you with Joint Venture partnerships
• Makes you more attractive to potential partners
• Allows you access to the level playing field of the Internet
• You can be a start-up or a multi-zillionaire – anyone can work the Internet!

So, when you begin to build your database, you are building a list of people that you can have a relationship with so you can begin to create a funnel approach to helping people make a connection to you on an energetic level and give you opportunities to get your toe in the water with your products and services.

Some of the tools you will find helpful to use on your website are the Squeeze Page, and the Interview. Read more

As an Entrepreneur in 2009, Will You be Part of the Change?

“I come from a very practical and analytical background and thus evaluated your approach with great scrutiny.

“Business action coupled with spiritual principles catapults participants to a very powerful level of prosperity and well being. How fantastic for those who have you in their corner. Priceless!”

- Joanne Roibu, Founder www.LifeMasteryGuide.com

At Coaching From Spirit during this inspiring year of 2009, everything I do this year is going to be like a Reality-TV show.

As you can see from what Joanne has to say, this is all about a process that can be observed, tested, and found true, and that is what I want to offer you this year as an entrepreneur.

I am excited to have you be a part of the Spiritualpreneurs journey this year – I want to show you what worked, what didn’t work, the tools I used and how they were used.

As an entrepreneur, you are your own case study.

President Obama says, “Be part of the change.” At Coaching From Spirit, I have made a commitment to being part of the change, and I invite you to come along on this journey and be a part of it all with me.

I believe that part of world transformation is to help Spiritualpreneurs become financially free, and I can show you how to do that! Read more

Why is it Important for an Entrepreneur to be Healthy in Body & Spirit?

Yesterday I mentioned how even as a busy entrepreneur, it IS possible to find the time to manage your energy throughout your day. The key is all about not making a big production out of it!

I understand that entire mental state, because I used to MAKE time in my day to do all of these things – meditation, affirmations, yoga, spiritual energy management, etc., etc.

I had a special room set up in my house with all sorts of temple stuff for meditation, and special equipment in my office for my exercises, and special clothes to wear…and while it made it all kind of exciting at first, it got to the point where it just felt like, “I don’t have the time to do all this stuff!”

But at the same time, I really believe that it is important to do all of these things on a daily basis, which is why I began to shift my perception around the whole idea of adding to my TO DO list vs. just finding spaces in the day to leverage my time and energies.

I shared yesterday on getting your energy management steps done before you even leave your bedroom in the morning (can you imagine what a great opening that is to your day?).

Here are a couple of other steps I like to take to make sure I fit the soul care in with my daily, necessary outer actions:

When I have to drive anywhere,  I don’t ever listen to the radio anymore. Read more

Do You Know How Much You Can Accomplish as an Entrepreneur Before You Even Leave Your Bed in the Morning?

Business people often say they just don’t have time to do things like meditations and “soul” work.

I mean, if you think about it, there’s CDs to clear your chakras, CDs to magnetize money to you, subliminal, paraliminal things you can be doing – there’s lots of different things you can do in this area!

One of the things I hear often as an entrepreneur is, “How do you ever find the time to do all those different things?”

Because on a daily basis:

• I magnetize for my business
• I clear my energy fields, my chakras, and create a connection
• I go through a series of physical exercises to balance my chakras with the 5 Rites
• I do a number of things like this every day…

And I hear it all the time – “How do you do that?”

I’ve actually come to a point where I have shifted my perspective entirely on finding the time to do these things.  And it’s all about creating spaces during the times that you are doing activities that you would have to do anyway.
