Your Mission Accomplished Story
Toward the end of last year, I was in the process of developing an online training program that will be part of a series I am developing for TransformationTV when I was forwarded a message from Marisa about EPM.
I was struggling with how to make this course stand out - even with my experience in adult learning and college level professorship, I knew that just talking to slides was rather boring and was spinning a lot on what to do.
Up until this point I had spent A LOT of money over the last 14 months with branding, niche, signature system development, website building, marketing, etc. and hadn't experienced much success - some, but not enough to even START to pay back the debt that was building as I was building my business.
So after listening to Marisa's message and her rock solid - I'll give you your money back guarantee, I had to go for it!
And I can tell you, I'm so so so glad I did.
I thought I had dialed in the niche and branding and "thought about skipping it" but decided that I was in it - full on. Went through the entire training - trudging along the overachiever track.
It didn't change my niche - health and wellness, anti-aging but it did put a polish and shine on the dull and ordinary - even down to how I now see myself. I went from boring - Ayurvedic Practitioner - to the Love Child of Mother Nature and Dr. Deming. I went from boring - I can help you - to let me show you the ways of the Zenkai Master.
The favorite part for me was the mind mapping and vision boarding the program. I had folders and folders full of ideas the wishes. In a week I had gone through every scrap of paper I had and had assembled them in a visual display - right out in front of me.
It showed me how much I already had - how much of the wheel I didn't need to reinvent. I was able to look at each Module with new eyes - what's the mission, what's the benefit, how will I keep them engaged, how do I surprise and delight, how to I support their expedition to Future Healthy Me?
I got clarity out of the exercise that I hadn't had before.
I jumped onto Heroic, moved my old website over and now have some clean up to do but rebranded with color pallets that were provided. I've gotten more consistency with materials that I am posting and sharing. Just that little bit made a big difference in how I presented myself and my message.
Then the marketing piece came and the example provided gave me a great foundation to start. Ran some facebook ads, email campaigns, chatterbox, etc. and one day a few weeks ago I reached out to someone I had pegged as my perfect client and by the end of the conversation I had sold my first EPM program - bingo~ off and running. Next day, another! The conversations were easy because I had my birds eye view and was able to talk through the program, benefits, and journey they would take on.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
How to deliver the wow was first and foremost in my mind to set them off excited so I quickly developed a welcome sequence, gave them access to templates, and every other day emails of inspiration. We launch 2/10 so I am making sure to keep them engaged.
Now I am working to get the welcome and first module up and available in Xperiencify and deliver this training JIT, but that's ok, I'm earning while I'm learning and building a product I am really proud of.
The impact to me personally is the confidence to just go for it. I have since planned two live trainings (via Zoom), have been posting and chatterboxing more than every before - and as a true introvert, that's BIG, and feel really confident that this year is the year of profit and blue skies....
What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
Keep it simple, adjust along the way, keep believing!
How did EPM help you become successful?
EPM helped me look at online training differently which I believe is going to differentiate me from the pack.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
I have known that bringing Ayurveda to the modern day corporate woman was what I was meant to do. My husband wasn't so convinced I could make a go of it (he's an hourly wage worker and it's hard to get him to think of making $$$ otherwise. I wish I had my camera ready when I told him I sold two programs.... It convinced him that my efforts are not in vain and that I'm on the path to something big... he even bought me flowers the next day!!!!
What has been the biggest change in your business?
How I package my programs going forward.
What are you most excited about moving forward with your Experience Product?
I am proud of what I am building and the impact it will have on those who join the Iterate Your Way to Wellness Journey. Which makes it so easy to talk about and want to share with others.
Is there anything else you would like to add?
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. Great support team. Would love to be a M2M Live but am not able to make it this year.... am planning on seeing you in 2021!
