Marisa, wow amazing. I watched the whole video. You are such a great presenter-warm, inviting, humble, engaging. It was the best hour I spent today:)

A pivotal moment. Your information has opened up my awareness. I have a membership site, providing coaching and personal development for startup and small businesses. I have been providing too much content and not enough experience.

Thanks to your very timely and insightful information, I will now begin to make the changes you suggest and look forward to your next steps.

Really enjoying this so far. As a trained counsellor and a natural health consultant, I can understand how important these core experiences will be. Funny, I have been thinking recently about how to create a program that was not just information, but fun and engaging. If it is not fun, I don't want to do it (or for very long).

I am in group #2. I have a huge desire to create an online program and thought it was going to be about sharing how to get well from cancer the natural way. (as I had cancer as a child and then again in my late 40's), but more and more as I look back on who I truly am, I am an encourager especially for people to recognize that life's lemon can be turned into lemonade.

I love the words from a song "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger". So I think it is much bigger than just cancer recovery, of embracing that they have survived other things in life, so to not let cancer stop them now. I love the concept of constant wins.

I know that my biggest challenge will be to not overload, so the small chunks spoke to me. Sure glad that even though I have felt antsy of not having "Launched", or even created the program as yet…

I am now glad that I don't have to start over, so that I can do it in a manner that is fun, engaging, and inspirational. (which is the way I have always strived to create and facilitate my live workshops.) I see now that my favorite workshops that I facilitate have those components in them, and the ones I get bored with easily, do not!

My vision for myself is to have both online and live programs, where the partipants come away with a sense of "I can do this". My husband and I will live the Spring - Fall on some secluded, tranquil acreage in a log cabin, steps away from a lake that he can kayak in and I can swim in. The atmosphere will be conducive for both of us to write. The winter months will be spent facilitating live events in a warm climate, and to offer 1 or 2 times a year, the online program.

Experience products work...I've experienced them, but never knew there was a formula. The psychological triggers in the doing kept me intrigued. I'm eager to learn more.

I couldn't have stumbled across this video series at a better time. I am literally in the process of getting clear on the philosophy behind my future online program. I know exactly what the program will be about, and have a process that I will teach. But the approach is what still needs work. I didn't want to rush in and develop something that I knew wasn't the best angle it could possibly be. If I didn't think it was great, then customers definitely wouldn't.

I want to launch something I absolutely know will help people. I want them to quote me in conversation as one of those people who helped them realise something huge that helped them change their lives.

You know what's interesting is that one of the only online courses I've ever followed through to completion followed the exact formula you are talking about! It got me hooked on day one, and I just had to come back each subsequent day to find out what was around the corner.

Just want to say that I've been a long time lurker of liveyourmessage and this has got to be the BEST thing I've ever seen from you guys! We do food tours to India and while the tours are fun and exciting it got me thinking about the EXPERIENCE we give through our emails and website etc. which is kind of boring.

To cut a long story short, I re-wrote an email this morning to a few customers who I thought were keen but not convinced about travelling with us but this time cut down the text and tried to capture the fun and exciting Indian experience and make the email part of that.

Well, I have just received a reply from one couple who I thought were travelling on their own but it turns out they were making plans for a small group of friends who often travel together and while they can't join us in February, they now want to book in to our Oct-Nov 2017 tour which I haven't even been released yet - that's 8 people paying just under $4,000 per person. A very welcome $30,000.

So, even though I don't sell an information product which seems to be your target market, I realise now that I kind of do when I send info about our tours out to people and the big Ah Ha moment came about when I acknowledged that our marketing doesn't even begin to reflect the experience we have on tour.

Happy Friday everyone! True story .... I asked my client for what I think I am truly worth ... 40% higher rate today!! ????

BACK STORY... I took a sabbatical after 12 years with GE ... for 18 months and started a process improvement training business. In November last year, I had spent all of my 401k savings. I spent my last $2,000 on Marisa Murgatroyd's 8 week EPM and crossed my fingers. Little did I know this would change my life forever!!

A few weeks into EPM I discovered my superpower .. my ikigai .. and decided to change the type of projects I was pursuing from tools based on process and people based. I was approached by a recruiter who loved me so much.. they decided to hire me instead of placing me at a client site.

This was after 6 months of casually interviewing and zero hits. This interview was different .. I now knew my super power and was so passionate and energetic about it they fell in love with my energy. I talked about my super power during the interview and about the process and breakthrough I just had with EPM. With no experience in recruiting or consulting .. I took the assignment knowing that "I Can turn any kinda chaos into greatness." ????

And so I did. I became the Change Management Coach/Consultant for the recruiting firm. I spent my nights over the last 6 months researching and reading and everyday I went in and KICKED ASS! OK .. HERE'S THE FUN PART...

Today, I had lunch with my client engagement manager. I took him to a nice upscale Jamaican restaurant (White American dude .. this doesn't matter except that "Jamaican" is what I am and a Jamaican restaurant is a bit different). I made sure he was really comfortable ????. Here goes ... I told him .. "back in November I doubted myself and underpriced my service (plus the scope of the project has changed, there's a lot more risk involved, the impact and benefit to the company is a lot greater and so on and so forth).

Also, I just realized that I am DARN good at what I do!! The whole time I was thinking about our lesson on premier pricing and charging our worth. He said "what's your long term plan"? I said "I just hired a mentor and coach and in 12 months I plan to launch a full blown coaching practice with many "Jennifer's" all over working with companies like yours.

I also plan to coach executives like yourself on a one to one basis". He said " that's really powerful Jennifer .. so what exactly does this mentor do?" I said ... she is teaching me to get out of my own way and to believe that I am AWESOME! She is also teaching me how to build a professional business" He said "I think you are truly amazing and we couldn't do this project without you! How much would you charge to coach an executive like myself privately?"

I thought to myself "YES!!!" He's said that to me many times before but in this conversation ... I wanted him saying "you're amazing" multiple times. I said .. "Hhhmm I'm thinking $20k and up". I also told him that I have been approached by other executives within his company for coaching but I'm not sure how that would work but my mentor will help me figure it out. ???? He's said "sweet .. let me think about that rate increase". We walked out .. I gave him a hug and said .. "have a fabulous weekend".

Now .. even though my fingers and toes are crossed I am not even nervous. You know why .. I am FREAKIN AWESOME!! can you tell I've been listening to coach Rono?? Note to self ... If I get this .. my stretch goals are met. I'll be able to pay for mentorship several times!!! Stay tuned …

Holy cow! Mind, BLOWN! I'm an information marketer and have bought into the "Thud" formula you mentioned. It worked well five years ago but my results have been dwindling over the past few years. And from the beginning, even when I had hundreds of people buying my information programs, I know their consumption and success rates were very low. NOW I understand why.

Your training resonates so deeply with me I was in tears watching this today. I want to start giving my clients those experiences through my valuable information that will create the RESULTS they crave. Your free content videos are amazing and I've gotten so much out of this first 80+ minutes of training.

Honestly, I rarely (I might even go so far as to say NEVER) watch a free video series all the way from start to finish, especially if it's over about 15 minutes long. I'm so glad you encouraged me to watch all the way to the end on video #1. That was great advice.

I'm excited about the long list of things I've already committed to change based on what I learned so far and can't wait for the next two videos and next steps. Let's do this!
