Blogging – Blogging is one of the least expensive and quickest ways to see a boost in traffic as long as you are keeping your target market in mind and speak directly to them in each and every blog. Do not try to be all to everyone, talk through your blog , to your ideal client.

Advertise — Use pay per click, banner, or other ways to attract people searching for your services and coaching to your least expensive offering such as your newsletter sign up form where they will receive a free newsletter via autoresponder.

Social media — Sign up for at least the big three in social media, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn keeping in mind the personality of each platform when you create your profile. Next, you must participate. If you do not participate in the social media conversation where it is important it is unlikely that you will see any return on your investment, which unless you pay someone else, is your time, which we've already established is your most valuable asset.

SEO — Search engine optimization which includes: blogging, article marketing, meta tags, keywords, site descriptions, site copy, website copy and more should be implemented right away and a huge part of your overall marketing strategy.


Segment your market — Using your autoresponder accurately is very important for you. Create market segments so that if someone purchases the offerings you present to them in your newsletter that they are moved from the first listed to another list that shows they purchased a product or service.

Up sell & cross sell –  Never forget to offer your current clients, and current subscribers your next level or complimentary  products, tools and services. Even if a client has purchased all you have to offer, you can make a percentage of selling other people's products and services to that same client.

Create or point out scarcity — Hours are few, time is short, so point it out in your marketing copy or actually create a shortage of product, even if it is digital by only allowing a set number of people to purchase it at the given price or given compilation. That does not mean you can't open it up later, charge a different price later, or pack it with other offerings, it just means that you entice people to buy by creating a feeling of loss.

Be open — No matter how many blogs you have, or how much you socialize on the Internet if you're not having  back and forth conversation with your potential clients, competitors, as well as those who are offering complementary services to yours, then you're missing out big time. Allow people to comment on your blogs, to your forum posts, and to you without censoring them. Of course, if it's not a real comment and is only spam, delete it freely, but if it's a real comment, even if it is negative, have a conversation!


Over Deliver — Most people won't think of over delivering as a marketing strategy but it is because your best client is someone who has already bought from you and as a coach you want them to buy from you more than once. If you give mediocre service, or even just live up to your own hype you will fail to impress so over deliver on your promises and you'll create a fan for life.

The thing is, in a coaching practice there already is scarcity because time is limited already. A lot of coaches over estimate the amount of time that they will have actual billable hours. A billable hour is a working hour that you can actually bill someone for. In every business these hours are limited  far more than one might expect. Most people think they'll have forty hours a week in which to bill and that is how they set their hourly rate. This is a mistake.

When you are in business for yourself you have more work to do than simply what is billable. Therefore you have to figure out how many billable hours you can reasonably work before you set your hourly rates. Now you see that you have a real problem because it is unlikely that you will be able to work enough hours to make real money that will give you what you truly desire, which is freedom.


Once you figure out this problem you can start figuring out how to fill in the hours with multiple offerings rather than simply one on one coaching. You can create email coaching programs that are automated, automated drip membership sites, an inner circle and the ultimate prize, the cherry on top of the cream, your one-on-one coaching service.  As your client moves across each level the number of people allowed to participate gets lower, and the price for entry gets higher.

The reason for this is that we do not feel the need to improve ourselves if we feel comfortable about our income level. Of course, if everyone around us is making the same amount of money, there is no reason to feel uncomfortable about how much money the amount of money we are making, since we are not outcast from the group. Income level is also very conducive to the lifestyle that a person lives and if everyone else that is around is living the same lifestyle, that lifestyle becomes very
comfortable and there is little reason to improve it.

Compare this to a football player who wants to play in the NFL, but is constantly training with a baseball team. He might be comfortable with the baseball team and the other members of the team might be that person’s best friends, but practicing with a baseball team will not make him a better football player. The same can be said for an individual’s career, as you will not improve your career standing if you hang out with people who are not worried about improving themselves. You must be around people who are successful because they will motivate you to make yourself better.

The good news is that this will not be that significant of a change in your life, as long as you handle things the right way. You do not have to move to a major city and surround yourself with some of the most knowledgeable people in the business world
because, let’s face it, they wouldn’t want to hang out with you anyway. They are very busy and very important people who have better things to do than hang out with someone who wants to improve him or her self. If it was that easy, everyone would be best friends with the richest people in the world and in this
scenario, the dynamics of this formula would certainly have to change.

What you can do, however, is make your local support group more diverse by getting to know successful people in your own area. This can be done by taking a job at a local corporation or simply mingling with people everywhere you go. Another great method is to join an MLM company, this sounds funny, but it works! You are bound to
time people who are more successful than most if you are constantly meeting people and over time, you will find that your income will increase as well.

This entire formula is a direct result of peer pressure, as no one wants to be the one that stands out in a group. If you are the most successful person in a group, you will be expected to pick up the check and do other things that you do not want to do. Likewise, if you are the least successful person in a group, you will not be able to afford to go out for nice dinners or stay at nice hotels on trips. You have probably noticed that Hollywood actors hang out with other actors, doctors hang out with other doctors, and CEOs hang out with other CEOs and the reason for that is that they are just as successful as one another.

If you were looking for your dream girl, you would not hang out at a construction site and, likewise, you cannot reach your goals if you are with people who do not have similar aspirations. You do not have to completely rid yourself of these influences in your life, since they are your friends and youdefinitely care about them. What you do have to do is expand your network and make new friends who have similar goals or, better yet, have already achieved these goals. If you can accomplish this, you will find yourself more motivated than ever before you succeed financially and once you have this motivation, there is nothing that can hold you can from reaching your end goal. Your success is within your reach now that you know about the five divided by fives equals success formula, so go out there and make it happen for yourself.

I am here to tell you that so many doors have opened in my life because I “live” by
this! It truly does work …….. every time!

Change your association, change your life, your situation, your income!

To Your Success,

Mark
