Want to go to New York?
Imagine being paid thousands to fly to New York and consult for a company a couple of hours per day. The real question is: - What would be your expertise if a company did pay you to fly to NYC? I know it can seem scary to consult for a company overseas, but you'd be amazed how straightforward it actually is + the pay is pretty great too. For example, from 2014 to 2019 I was paid every single year to fly to NYC and focus on sales transformation for a few different companies. - I didn't have any formal education (no MBA or masters degree) - A couple of years earlier, I didn't have a single client and had no clue how to find the first one - I wasn't a former CEO or director with a wealth of business knowledge But, I knew one thing inside out. - Sales transformation Fortunately, companies are willing to pay BIG to help with their sales. I remember checking out of one hotel where I stayed for 3 weeks (right next to the Empire State Building) and the receptionist said "here's your receipt for your stay sir". It was $17,000! The best moment though was when she said "that's all paid up, you're good to go". Yep - as a consultant EVERYTHING is covered, I even had a $500 per day budget for expenses. BACK TO YOU. - What expertise could you be highly paid for to help companies? - What's stopped you up to this point? - What's your biggest fear about taking your expertise to companies? - How would you like to travel to destinations all over the world to help companies? Looking back, I've been paid 50+ times to travel overseas including: - Consulting in Dubai (5 times) - 2 weeks in Milan helping a company with sales leadership - Visited 21 cruise ships across 30+ countries earlier this year to roll out my sales methodology - Flew to Ghana to help an oil company several times - Been to Amsterdam more times than I can count to help a cool IT company That's my hyper short list, but there's one thing in common with every single overseas consulting gig.

10 High value skills that WILL change your life
It’s time to be highly paid for your expertise. These 10 high value skills will take you there! 1) Copywriting Write words, get paid. Like it or not, we persuade through words and we spend a lot more time reading than anything else. The problem? We read 100,000+ words per day, so: - Why should anyone listen to you? - Why should they stop scrolling? - What makes you read one email vs deleting many others? Words that connect with your reader, create AHA moment and make them think “Wow, I never thought about it that way before” pays thousands. 2) Sales For you to sell for thousands, your consultation has to be worth thousands! Most are so busy pitching, convincing and HATING sales, they miss out on everything mastering sales has to offer. I’ve personally sold 2000+ high ticket consulting offers and there’s one thing I know for sure. Sales is fun and is the fastest way to help more people. 3) Marketing Most advertise, they don’t market. They shout about their new product, they make offers and all they get is tumbleweed. Supermarkets can advertise because they sell to everyone, so the billboard on the motorway is great advertising to bring more people to their store. As small business owners, we need to talk to a specific audience and solve a specific problem. That’s marketing. And when you get it right, it pays immensely. 4) Lead generation Most would argue they have a great product, most would also agree they can’t get a client. AKA, they have ZERO clue how to find leads. What would change in your life if you could generate 1 to 10 highly qualified leads per week in your business? How will life be different when you have a waiting list of perfect clients wanting to pay you thousands? Without leads, we don’t have a business. With leads, we can build an empire. 5) Systems and process It’s cute most business mentors teach goals, but there’s a very good reason almost all of their clients fail. - We don’t rise to our goals, we fall to our systems

Sell solutions not services
People buy solutions, they DON’T buy: - Services - Products - Your time - Packages The sooner we realise this, the sooner we unlock THOUSANDS in revenues per client. EXAMPLE: We’ve believe our time is valuable and we should charge for it, but this in itself is a myth. The client doesn’t care how many hours you spend with them or days you spent building a product. The client only cares about what’s in it for them. - What transformation will they achieve? - Why will their life be better? - What’s the outcome of spending time with you? If anything, letting the client know they’ll get 10, 60 minute sessions with you already creates an objection in the mind of the client. - I don’t have 10 hours available right now - This sounds like a big commitment - Hmm, 10 hours for £XXXX price is £XXX per hour, this sounds way too expensive Yes, the client might desperately need your help and sure, spending 60 minutes per week with you can change their life. But, you need to frame it differently. STOP selling your time entirely. STOP packaging your services together and believing it’s valuable. STOP putting the value into your product when the value isn’t there for the client. Instead. Focus entirely on how value is created in the mind of the buyer. - Psychologically, what makes the clients go WOW, I NEED this! - What makes the client feel safe to invest thousands with you - How will the client life be exponentially improved because they’re working with you The fastest way to look at this: A £2 coffee where you can’t get a seat in the coffee shop, there’s kids screaming + the coffee taste like toilet is expensive. But, a £5 coffee where there’s comfy seats, fast wifi and the perfect work environment to get shit done is cheap. Relating back to working with experts, £50 with a coach who gives generic life coach advice is way too expensive, while investing thousands with a coach who gives the exact insights for you in the right moment + gives you the confidence to implement is a fantastic decision.

How to handle rejection
Rejection of your product or service, isn't rejection of YOU as a person. This one mindset shift, can transform how we feel about sales entirely, because it removes the attachment we have to rejection. All explained in the short videos below, be sure to take a look. VIDEO 1: Rejection & identity VIDEO 2: Fear psychology VIDEO 3: Fear exercise BTW - This is a part of a super old course (think I filmed in 2018), but the message is still strong as ever. Do you fear rejection when it comes to selling your product or service?
