Your Graduation Story
Ironically, I had 4 months left in Course Builders Laboratory, but knew that I would not launch anything within that structure. It had helped get me going again, but did not feel that it would get me to lift off. I just tuned in to your webinar because I wanted to experiencify any course I was going to eventually launch and then realized that your program would get me to launch! And would be the best use of Nov-January which can be a great time to get distracted...instead...pow off to the races! First week, I had a major dental disaster, which got fixed week 9 in Costa Rica. Keep your eye on the ball. Partner gets diagnosed with torn heart valve, scary, then keeps getting really really high spikes in blood pressure-tired, but keep your eye on the ball. So I didn't reach Mission Accomplished, but I do have 8 women committed to my Beta Course---No Regrets After 50 : Jumpstart Your Best Life In 30 Days! which I'm offering for free (I'm an Altruist & it was my easier way to get started:() starting in March. I'm looking forward to what I'll learn and yes, I need to work on my money blocks!:)
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
Wow! You so over delivered, but did not overwhelm.
How did EPM help you become successful?
Having the milestones, the worksheets and the weekly coaching (shout out to Coach Mike!)were most helpful. Mondays with Marisa ground me each week and the coachathons were a study in coaching on the spot! I so appreciate your Guidebooks on Design and Naming...they will forever be my go-to. And I still have to listen to Don's technical as I implement.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
I have a vision, an action plan and a sense of what it takes to iterate...which is equally as important...gotta remember it's a process and to take your ego out of it!
What has been the biggest change in your business?
There's no way I would be running a Beta program in March without EPM.

How I experiencify what I'm doing in my Beta and seeing if my program flies.

Your Graduation Story
While I did not launch my experience product during EPM itself, I am equipped to launch my first course shortly and have tools to create, market, and deliver many experience products in the future. The group coaching aided my progress by direct comments and side-door coaching as I listened to others work through their obstacles. My fellow classmates were enormously helpful and encouraging.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
I gained the tools and mindset to launch this first course and many other products to come - The team was encouraging and challenged me to fine-tune my thinking for clarity and marketability, yet since the process was broken down into manageable steps, I rarely felt overwhelmed. During the weeks of the course, I fell behind because a grandson was born not breathing and spent a couple weeks in NICU so I provided childcare for older grandkids. When crisis was over (Liam is strong & healthy now), I knew just where to pick up the material and all missed video trainings were available for me. I caught up quickly.

Your Graduation Story
I feel privileged to have been invited into Marisa's orbit, and I congratulate myself on having the wisdom to accept! EPM's repeatable process for translating essence into form was just what I needed to translate 30 years of brick-and-mortar experience into a repeatable process for helping my clients get the same outsized results I experienced throughout my career. I've received far more than my monetary investment in the form of guidance and inspiration for the future for both my business and my entrepreneurial ambitions, and I look forward to continuing the journey.

Your Mission Accomplished Story
I was struggling with where to go with my practice next and wanted to broaden my reach. This program helped me design several programs and walk me step by step through the process to get it done.

I'm deeply grateful for the coaching smaller groups and connections of support I made as a result that have helped me create products and plans for my future business growth I made my $2000 back by week 8 with one of the techniques alone.

The getting done small group we created from Coach Uwes group people I met have been I valuable for getting me to do the work . I wasnt able.to complete all the modules its just too much for 12 weeks. I reached mission accomplished even without that .....please advertise the level of time it will take to go through just the materials that are soooo amazing. I'm not done .... I wasnt prepared for 7 hours of time plus all the live calls 5 hours. Its really 12 hours per week that I needed on tip of my practice seeing clients, and home activities. And the holidays I'd recommend same length of time just with half the material. It's really a graduate business course plus plus on steroids.... I will use the materials over and over as I implement and iterate 10,000 thank yous
Your Mission Accomplished Story
I've always wanted to lead a luxury writing retreat in a fabulous location, but was too afraid none of my clients would invest their time and funds in a high-end experience. I used this course to design and market a fabulous retreat that just sold out. I had to work through lots of fear about raising my pricing and taking a group to a foreign county. I also had to change my marketing approach. It was a lot of work but well worth the effort. I'll be working with my clients in Skianthos, Greece, this summer- the island where Mama Mia was filmed. I'm so excited!
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
To create experiences instead of just giving people information.
How did EPM help you become successful?
My marketing was stale and old school. EPM really energized my marketing so it was more fun for me and my list.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
This was a big risk for me and a much bigger investment than I've ever ask for before. I'm thrilled that it worked and already planning a high end experience for clients next year.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
Confidence that I can create and sell a high end event.

Is there anything else you would like to add?
This was one of the best investments I've made in my business in 18 years. Thank you!
Your Mission Accomplished Story
I ran a course similar to my experience product a few years ago, and while everyone finished, they didn't do the out of class work or realize the goals of the course. I was really discouraged, and never ran it, or any other major course, again. I joined EPM and learned the skills to not only help my students stay engaged and succeed, but how to market my course, and master my own demons that were holding me back. I offered an expanded version of the class at a much higher price point, and sold out my beta. When I set my stretch goal for the course, it felt like an impossibility, but I hit and surpassed it easily using the skills I learned in EPM. Whenever I felt like holding back or hiding, I reminded myself of the motivational tools Marisa teaches in EPM, and just kept going. I feel like I'm on a mission to make sure every animal that needs bodywork, gets bodywork, and empowering other animal bodyworkers to reach their business goals is a huge step in that direction.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
I learned so much, but the life changing thing was how to keep going when most of me wants to stop. The marketing whys were crucial in this.
How did EPM help you become successful?
I never would have pushed this hard to get it out in a timely fashion. I also never would have believed my stretch goal was possible.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
I now have the money for some very important things. I'm confident I can help my students be successful this time, so that this will become a thriving business for me.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
I'm really getting things done.
What are you most excited about moving forward with your Experience Product?
I think it's going to make a huge difference in the lives of my students, and the animals they help.
Is there anything else you would like to add?
Thank you so much for this experience.
Your Graduation Story
Before EPM I struggled for literally about 7 years. You name it, I’ve tried it. Nothing I tried ever felt right and I’d just give up. I lacked clarity, focus and the right guidance to show me step-by-step exactly what I needed to do.
EPM was my last attempt or I was ready to just give up on my business. This program is my one of the very few of the hundreds of courses I purchased over the years that I actually finished. And I didn’t just finish I have a solid plan and something tangible I can use in my business. For the first time I see how to use my unique skills in a way people will find helpful.
I had doubts along the way. Questions would come up but I pushed on and trusted the process. Marisa didn’t hold back or leave any stone unturned. Every time I was confused it didn’t take me long in the course and the answer was laid out by Marisa.
This program was the missing key and just what I needed. And while I haven’t hit mission accomplished yet, I have almost all my marketing assets ready and now I just need to follow through and implement the marketing I learned in EPM.
Coach Debra is amazing and the weekly calls, email support and her tracking my milestone progress was really key to my success. Unlike other courses, EPM doesn’t just give you the content and leave you hanging... or offer an overcrowded Facebook group as the only form of “support.” I really felt cared for and like Debra made so much effort to help me succeed.
So thank you, Marisa, for creating such a life-changing program and Debra for her wisdom and support.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
With the right guidance you can create a course and market it and deliver it if you follow the simple steps of the program. If you do the work it’s pretty much failproof.
How did EPM help you become successful?
Pretty much all the things I mentioned in my story. Outstanding course content for every step of the way, guidance and support.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
It’s given me confidence and hope again that I can have a successful online business.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
Clarity, direction and focus.
What are you most excited about moving forward with your Experience Product?
To fill my program and help people. Then continue to refine it based on their feedback. It’s a really awesome feeling. Thank you!!!
Your Graduation Story
A highly credentialed ICF coach, trained educator, and former franchise owner, I had the ingredients and knew the steps in creating group programs and virtual courses to help me grow and scale my coaching business. My problem was that I had people interested and ready to take my courses, but I didn't have them officially created yet. EPM Evergreen was my fast track ticket to getting my course out faster and better than I would have gotten it out on my own. Marisa's gamification approach and her rockstar coaches' mentoring with my messaging gave me the momentum I needed to catapult my course project. The structure, accountability, and support EPM Evergreen gave me in just 12 weeks helped me feel not alone and gave me the push I needed, resulting in me launching my course months ahead of schedule and giving me a solid ROI.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
Believing I could launch a comprehensive course before the course was created -- especially with people who didn't already know me and who would be participating virtually.
How did EPM help you become successful?
I had a lot of the ingredients already, but EPM provided the icing on the cake that took my offering to the next level and helped me become successful by teaching me to incorporate gamification techniques and gaining a clearer understanding of messaging.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
It has given me greater confidence as a course creator and learning experience provider. I will value being able to use the Experience Product? trademark.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
The confidence I have gained in creating, marketing, and delivering experience products and the visibility I have gained in correlation with my experience product.

Creating more and serving more -- increasing both my impact and income (so I can make more impact)!
