What Does it Mean to do Joint Ventures Backwards?

The approach that I like to take when developing any kind of program is to reverse-engineer – or reverse-create – it by starting at the end and going backwards.

You start by really thinking about the gap for your clients or customers that your product or service will address – begin with what you are going to offer to your vibrationally matched clients and everything has to seed back to that.

When I created my in-person workshop and marketing venture called Heavenly Meals, it was very successful because it identified and focused on a real gap; it brought together the “right” team to address the gap; it attracted Joint Venture partners to support the project, and then I was able to easily market a well-organized workshop to the market.

After just a short time, I was able to sell this business for a profit and move on to other ventures.

Most people get tangled when they try to write a workshop (or a teleseminar or an interview) because they see a blank page and try to figure out what they are going to present or teach.

You don’t have to do this!

You can fast forward to the end of your presentation and:

• Examine the problems/issues for your ideal client or group
• Identify what their challenges are
• Then identify what your solutions are to those challenges

When you can clearly see the gap for them, you can then easily create solutions to offer for their challenges.

This is creating starting from the end and moving toward the introduction.  You can think, “Now I will work backwards and create the element that will support them taking a next action and will activate in them that what I am offering to them is a solution”.

This really leverages your time and energy.

What’s so great about reverse creating your in–person workshop is that you are simply activating the gap and seeding.  By following this process, you will see that by the end of the workshop they are saying, “I want this, I need this”, and it is a totally irresistible offer.

All you have to do is think about what programs you have and what would be an amazing offer for them.  From there you can create all the different pieces of the workshop that would support it.

The onsite workshop is a 90-minute to two-hour free, local workshop where you are actually live in-person.   It gives you exponential opportunities to energetically tap your potential ideal clients’ senses so you can even more deeply connect with them. Read more

Have You Ever Thought About How You Can do Joint Ventures “Offline”?

Teleseminars and Joint Ventures are great ways to market your business on the Internet.

But have you ever thought about leveraging those same ideas and activating your ability to do an in-person seminar and have the same great success?

This is yet another marketing channel for you to easily and effortlessly connect to your ideal clients and be a huge revenue producer.

What makes this process so easy is that the principles and formula for the Internet campaign are the same for the in-person seminar.

You get to discover Joint Venture folks who are on-fire to promote your work, as well as give gifts from them to your ideal clients so that you are also promoting them.

This is the essence of the energy exchange.

Connecting with your ideal clients in person this way can actually be easier than something like a teleseminar, because you are really able to tap their different senses.

Awhile back I made a decision to create my own in-person workshop to identify and address a gap that I had in my own life.  I then attracted the “right” business partner and together we created products and services to support others who also experienced this same gap in their lives.

As a busy mother of a young child, I often found myself doing what I called the “five o’clock freezer stare” when it came time to figuring out what to serve my family for dinner after a long day.

I just knew that others shared that feeling of lack of time and energy to cook as well as concern for wanting good, nutritional meals for the family. Therefore, Heavenly Meals was born.

This business was born out of my gap and I was looking for people to support who felt just like me.

For the Heavenly Meals Workshop, I didn’t do any fee-based advertising in the newspapers – it was all Joint Ventures.  My business partner and I ended up having over 100 people at the workshop.

You can always do advertising if you feel led – just remember that Joint Ventures don’t cost you anything, or very little.  And they give you great local connections!

You can keep costs at a minimum and do customized mailers.   I opted to write the copy for the Joint Venture partners to give them an example of an endorsement and just let them sign their name to it.

I simply told them, “I’ll write it for you and you can tweak it to make it personalized from you, but I’ll set everything up to make it totally easy for you.”

In terms of hosting, you can also offer the opportunity that someone hosts your promotional workshop and get 20% of all revenue in return as their referral fee.

I did this for that workshop, and then went out to look for folks for their goody-bag stuff.

So, I did:

• Marketing first to get Joint Venture partners
• Created all the promotional copy that was then sent out to potential ideal clients
• Handled all the logistical set-up
• And wrote the script for the workshop

If this seems like something that is intimidating or overwhelming, remember to always begin any project at an inner level.  Manage your energy around it before taking ANY action.

Before you begin to put together the documents, formulas and outlines that you will need, take an opportunity to activate your connection to Spirit about this workshop approach.  You can use the following Activation Exercise for this purpose: Read more

What Are Some of the Qualities You Will Need to be Successful in Affiliate Marketing?

If you’re a Spiritualpreneur, you’re probably not comfortable with the idea of being just a passenger on the ship of life.

You would rather take your destiny into your own hands then continue to be tossed on the waves of what is going on around you!

You have the desire of maneuvering the ship yourself and being able to take it anywhere you want to.

Being onboard a ship that is on its way to a particularly great destination is something you dream of, and the knowledge that you do have the capacity to steer it yourself is what empowers you to achieve your dream!

One of the ways that you can take your destiny into your own hands is through financial freedom.  I believe that all Spiritualpreneurs should be financially free, and that there are incredible opportunities out there for those that are looking!

If you are looking for ways to achieve this in your life through a second income stream, you should really consider affiliate marketing.

In this business, there are no bosses to order tell you what to do.  There are no deadlines to meet and no clutter.  When you are equipped with the tools you need to succeed in this business, you are bound to get what your heart ultimately desires.

So, what are some of the things you need to be able to succeed in affiliate marketing?

While there is a lot of competition involved in affiliate marketing, you can rise above the norm when you are equipped with just the right stuff necessary to propel you forward!

I recommend that you begin with these 5 steps that will enable you to stand out among the rest. Read more

Are You an Entrepreneur That is in the Right Place?

“Affirm continuously to yourself: I am in the right place, at the right time, for the right purpose.”

- Ursula Roberts

What does this inspirational quite activate in you?

When I first started out as an entrepreneur, it was a very scary jump!  I had a newborn baby girl, and I had planned to go back to my corporate sales job when the maternity leave was up.

But when the time drew closer for me to return to that job, I just knew that I wanted to do something different. I had an intense passion and desire to start out on my own as an entrepreneur.

I felt the strength of this desire like it was a pager going off inside of me – it was loud and incessant and it wouldn’t stop!

I also knew that if I didn’t start right then – if I continued to put it off until everything fell into place (enough money, enough security, enough time, etc.) – I would never do it.

It wasn’t easy!  My husband was worried, my family was worried, I was worried.  It’s never difficult to begin to let fear win out – especially when you know you’ve got about 3 months to get your business up and running before you have to start selling stuff! Read more

Are You Experiencing Dissatisfaction as an Entrepreneur?

“I can’t believe they called me into work this late,” the lady said, looking me dead in the eye. “I swear, this place is a mess, and it’s never going to change.

In all my years I’ve worked here …” blah blah blah.

I hear the same thing over and over again from this one lady at work all the time, and it never changes. Does anyone know why it never changes? Because she’s dissatisfied.

And why is she dissatisfied?

Because she continues to participate in the same process over and over again, and consequently always gets the same results.

Change your process.

It really is that simple. If we continue to do the same things, over and over again, we’re going to continue to get the same result, over and over again, right?

If I say I don’t like my job, but I continue to go into work every day, I’m going to continue to get the same results: disappointment and dissatisfaction in my work.

I have to change my process. I have to apply for other jobs, land one of those jobs, and start going into work there, right?

Wrong. Read more

What Does Managing Your Spiritual Energy Have to do With Your Success in Business?

When I talk about managing spiritual energy, it is the idea that your thoughts, feelings, words and actions have an associated electrical frequency.

It has not been the conventional wisdom that what is happening in your outer experience has anything whatsoever to do with where you are focusing your thoughts, or where your beliefs are.

But there is a direct correlation between where I’m focusing the energy of my thoughts and beliefs and what happens in the world around me.

Often the most powerful beliefs will stem from your childhood. Perhaps you have the belief that, “work is a struggle”, because you saw that in your childhood.

You may not say it or think you think it, but this unconscious belief is a powerful aspect of your energy, and you will recreate it in your actions.

You are literally going to create experiences that cause this belief to show up as true for you. Read more

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
