I was having a challenge of designing a hybrid on line product, I wasn’t sure what to do to best market my offering. I joined EPM and the new thing I learned was the importance of sharing benefits of my program and helping the client visualize their future self in the mission statement. I revised a beta version of my program and enrolled five clients thus earning back my investment in EPM. I'm grateful for Coach Richele for their support and guidance throughout this process and to Marisa for creating such a rich and informative product that will continue to be a resource I connect with before I launch any new products or programs.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
I have a more engaged audience.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
I had a successful first month of sales this year. The momentum is there to continue to flourish
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
Speak first of benefits of any of my offerings. In sharing that I also speak to my assets and expertise.
What is now possible for you because of your Experience Product?
I can build on the beta version I launched at the end of EPM. I feel more empowered that I now have a signature offering that can grow with my clients.
Is there anything else you would like to add?
I think the lag between the Christmas Break took me out. I know I could have continued with the videos and courses. I waited to get final approval on last milestones before continuing with the other courses. I'm glad that we have life time access to this content as I will resource it. Maybe a note to continue with the courses even if you do not have feedback yet from your coaches so as not to derail momentum may be helpful for future students.
I was having the problem of wanting to develop a multiple week online video training course for healthy eating instead of unhealthy dieting. It is an idea I had entertained in my head for almost 2 years. I wasn't sure how to bring it to fruition and felt frustrated in not knowing the best way to organize and get the project done. That's when I joined the Experience Product Masterclass and got lots of help from Marisa and my pod coach Mark, as well as technical direction from the Get it done Friday calls. I listened and completed all the main course modules, as well as several of the optional modules and got the direction and confidence to proceed to 'mission accomplished' in only 12 short weeks. The result is a training course that I can be proud of and now I have a springboard for many more online training projects that have been on the back-burner until now. Thank you EPM!!
Your GRADUATION Story
I was struggling to break the inertia and launch my group program. I wasn't making the time to move forward with my group coaching program at the same time as juggling all the responsibilities of being a single working Mom and entrepreneur. I not only signed up for, but committed to the EPM. It's not as if life slowed down, in fact it was a crazy time with many moving pieces outside of EPM, but the comraderie and encouragement and exhuberance of the coaches, community, and Marisa's calls gave me the push I needed to get into action and stay in action leaving my inertia over launching my group program in the past. I ignored the pull to let life takeover and pull me off track, instead I doubled down on my commitment and finished in the nick of time. The modules are set up so that you do not need to wait until the end to get movement and clients... this was HUGE in keeping me motivated!! I have three committed clients to my Group coaching will not launch for another 28 days!!! I am confident I will not only have my minimum of 10 participants, but I am focused on a new goal of reaching my maximum of 25 participants for this Beta program!
Before working with Marisa and the EPM Coaches and team, I was having so much trouble creating an online course. In, the past three years, I’d spent over $13,000 in a coaching program to learn how to create and launch an online course. After working with Marisa, I was able to hit Mission Accomplished, launch my MVP Experience product, and make my first sale. I feel like a new woman because I know that my MVP product will give my clients the results that they expected and I’ll be able to impact more people and have fun doing it. Although I was not 100% ready to start my Chatterbox Campaign, I still did it anyway. Even though I flub my way through my first enrollment conversation I was able to make my first sale. Ka-Ching!! I’d highly recommend Marisa and Experienced Product, if you don’t, you’ll do you and your business a disservice.
Your FIRST Sale Story
I was working with a client who had signed up for in-person household organizing but was struggling with paperwork. Wasn't sure it would actually be considered a sale, but chatterboxed about the new program I was launching that would give her a fairly instant filing system, and since she was close by, we could do it in person. She said yes, and we pivoted from our normal "schtuff" organizing in to a paperwork "clinic".
I am new to product creation and didn’t know where to begin. I have the training, skills and experience to provide coaching services using PSYCH-K which facilitates rapid belief changes/changing limiting beliefs. I didn’t know how to explain what I do. I used to try to explain what PSYCH-K is. And when I did that, people would be confused, they glaze over and think of what I’m doing as kind of out there - “woo woo” stuff. How do I get people interested without scaring them off? After joining EPM, I realized that I was approaching it all wrong. I learned that I need to focus on the benefits or the outcome of my services and not the how of what I do. So I started to talk about what I do differently. Explaining that I am a coach and that I guide people through making lasting changes, release old habits and beliefs, so they can go after what they want and create their vision of their best life. EPM helped me gain better clarify around how to talk about my services/product and now I have a good start with a product that I will be able to go out there and start making sales. There is more tweaking I need to do. It has been challenging keeping up with the class while maintains a full time job and other responsibilities. But I’m glad I had the opportunity to delve into what it is to be an entrepreneur.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
I am still new to this. I haven’t made a sale yet. I am just feeling more clarity around what I need to do.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
I feel more confident about pursuing my business goals.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
I’m glad that I don’t need a lot of tech to be able to have a coaching business. I like the low tech, MVP approach and to remember progress over perfection.
What is now possible for you because of your Experience Product?
I envision having more time for fun and flexibility in terms of when and where I work. I believe I can do it.
I have been wondering how to share my knowledge about the benefits of study abroad for a very long time. I wanted to impact a broader audience than just the students at my small university who participate in study abroad programs with me. When I watched Marisa's free trainings prior to EPM, I knew this could be the door that opened numerous possibilities. There were some some moments during the course when I wasn't sure if my 1:Few program could be successful, but Marisa's and Coach Mike's assistance and positivity helped me break through those barriers and continue to make progress. Unfortunately I did meet with some unexpected and serious life challenges during EPM, so I was not able to complete my chatterbox campaign or qualify for the money-back guarantee, but I did hit mission accomplished and I look forward to fully designing my online class later this year and making my first sale. Thank you to the entire team for this wonderful product and very supportive community!
Your FIRST SALE Story -
At the beginning of EPM I was very enthusiastic and followed through. Then, I started getting behind and could never catch up. But towards the end, I shifted gears, I "learned to love my flobes/mistakes", got back in my flow and sprinted to Mission Accomplished.
It’s wonderful!! I have completed Modules 1, 2, and 3 – primarily because it was so simple to understand how to reach the goal. At a few times I got lost in all the materials, but it was so easy to go back to the objective and understand immediately what I needed to do to meet the mission, and particularly exactly where I was in the process. I am not sure how others feel, but I feel like EPM was designed specifically for MY learning style! Thank you, Marisa & Team, for a product that has moved me further than any of the other valuable (& not so valuable) programs I have done over the years. And, I love that this is only the beginning!!
It’s like a miracle!! I have followed Marisa at a distance for years. I don’t know why I never engaged with one of her programs, maybe it was the marketing shift she says she made at some point, maybe the student was ready (wish I had gotten there years ago)!! I have wanted to launch a program since 2004! Yep…a while now. My vision for the program has evolved but the one thing I struggle with was feeling like I had a product. I always knew that I have a helpful and relevant basis for my HEALING WHAT AGES US program…but I didn’t have a product. All that marketing & other training…but I don’t have a product. I’d jump in, but I don’t have a product. Now I am so far into a brilliant product, designed to share my message with my customers and make a difference in their lives – in a way that is appropriate to them! Now I understand how to use market research to build an MVP product & bring it to market. Now I am free!! Now I don’t worry because I HAVE A VIABLE PRODUCT!! All that stuff about finding a tight niche, I now understand is a marketing issue and I can focus on one population for my MVP and I can also shift my marketing to address the needs of another population at another time. This has been so freeing. Now I can focus my audience statement without feeling like there is no other option. Freedom! Now I am released from needing a PERFECT introductory program rather than a PERFECT Signature Product right out of the gate. Now that I have a product, I have something tangible to offer! WOW !!! Thanks, Marisa, Coach Matthew, Murray, & Team I have brought someone to the enrollment conversation and even though she did not buy, at this time, I could see how EPM brought me such clarity that I was able to offer the same to the prospect/person. I was able to discuss her dreams with her in a way I don’t think she had been able to do on her own and I know she now sees something new for herself and I have no doubt she will join me when she sorts through all she got out of our conversation./ I will follow up with her, nurture her confidence & curiosity about what really is available to her to bring her talents out into the world in a new way for service, fun, and prosperity. - - - - I also want to acknowledge that the really major benefit for me was the EPM 2021 program - the whole thing - really took me through a lot of shifting of mindset! Marisa, I am sure you know exactly where that was structured throughout the program! I went from sad, demoralized, so desparate to get my message out there... to re-ignited, re-excited, re-committed to my Selfish & Altruistic WHY. I have been commited to this for more than 10 years but I did have to recognize that my hobby was just getting more and more expensive. But, now, I'M IN BUSINESS!! Thanks for standing for me until I could stand for myself. There is so much Adult Learner Wisdom in this program. Congratulations! Amazing how it all hangs together. That's my dream.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
I am moving this product forward into the market! Massive change!
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
Well, I feel confident that I can now refine my MVP and soon start to Supercharge my offer, to be in service & to experience revenues! I feel like I have gotten through a major step in my entrepreneurial journey.
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
The gamification structure breaks everything down into little steps to make small & larger wins that encourage participation and therefore increase the possibility my customers will stick longer than if I just delivered several video & live trainings & left them to plod along looking for a finish line. Following a proven process, trusting that purpose, tailoring it to my own program, and playing the game!! Metrics, baby... moving the needle!
What is now possible for you because of your Experience Product?
I have wind beneath my wings that I didn't have before EPM - and I am ready to soar! I will stick with Marisa, too. I can see EPM moved the needle for me & I don't want to risk loosing what is available to me in LYM... I am so grateful, Marisa & Team! Everything is Possible! It is difficult to be more specific because I have never been at this point & there will be so many changes. #! I'm in business, now!!! I can fulfill on my Big Selfish Why and basically create everything that I choose to create. And, I can launch into my Big Altruistic Why: to suppoort & guide people to their powerful, best life-legacy to ensure their fulfillment of their purpose will continue to positively impact themselves, their loved ones, their communities, and all the universe. WOW!! I can finally see that is available to me and I am moved how LYM helped me get to this glorious place of self-expression! YAAAAY! And so it is!
I was having a problem trying to get clarity on my sleep program; I wasn't sure what to do to successfully craft my new program to help my clients, structure it, launch and market it so that I may be of better service to my clients and I can help resolve their sleep issues so they would then have the energy and stamina so I can get to the Transformational coaching because I solved their fatigue problem first. I got confidence, clarity and focus. I now have a program I'm marketing and working to get sold that I am proud of and am getting booked up to do a talk at several places that want me to come and help their clients. An unexpected bonus of the program was that I developed 5 supporting products for my clients in the program and those products are generating interest in my program. I also have established several referral sources for my program including a doctor that wants to keep my program marketing info on hand to give to his clients so I can help his people as well. I'm looking forward to my first group getting underway in this iteration! I'm already working on crafting the Mastery Level year long program for my program attendees to keep up their success going higher after the initial program. Thank you very much! I've gone from depressed and confused to excited and focus with abundant possibilities ahead of me! Thank You!
