Your GRADUATION Story
I had the idea for this program in my head for a few years and even took another course on how to do course that I gave up on early. I was still lost and honestly doing and focusing on the right things and the wrong times until I was faced with overwhelm and putting the idea back on the shelf. I joined EPM and never looked back. Marisa's clear, step-by-step training left no room for me to talk myself out of it. Everything, and I mean everything, was there for me. I rode through the discomfort of taking imperfect action, a little every day facing my own personal demons along the way and made it to graduation. What a great feeling. I am already looking forward to the next version of what I have created. Marisa's coaching along with my personal coach Jack were more than enough to walk me over the finish line and I am forever grateful.
Your MISSION ACCOMPLISHED Story
I learned the power of personal connections by just reaching out and talking to humans. I realized how little of that I had been doing. This not only led me towards my first sales but re ingnited alot of old friendships along the way. A win win.
Your FIRST SALE Story
I had been reaching out to many people with little to no response. It is actually when I ditched the script and everything that I had learned and just met up with a teacher friend for coffee face-to-face and, with genuine excitement, told him about my offer that it clicked. He was in and really excited about it as well. This was a great lesson in not hiding and just going out there and talking to real humans again.
Your PROVED MY IDEA Story
My first sale gave me a little more confidence and signed up three others in one day after that initial sale. I listened to each teacher that I talked to and used what they had to say, ideas, concerns, pain points etc in my next conversations. These live discussions taught me everything that I needed to know going into my next calls. I learned the immense power of chatterboxing here.
Your MADE A WHOLE LOT MORE Story
After my first sale I was terrified that nobody else would sign up and that when the program began, it would just be me and one other person. This became the fuel to my eff ramp uports more than I ever thought possible. I went for days and nights, reaching out. I will continue this process until my launch. This idea of an imperfect launch is so powerful and, in itself, becomes the last bit of motivation that you need to actually do it. As a bonus in this process, I have been asked to speak at a couple of really incredible education conferences that will put me in front of a few thousand teachers. I am already planning my freebie that funnels them towards buying my full program! Beyond thrilled with this.
I now have the confidence that I can put together future trainings that will improve people's lives and my own bottom line, and that I can run all of it from my computer and Zoom platform from the comfort of my home. I feel like I have the capacity now to follow through on the things that I start. I am an idea person with 20 things half done. The EPM training helped me see clearly where my weak spots were and allowed me to address them and push through. So beyond having a course to offer to the world I feel that I learned what it takes to bring a project from concept to finish line and I am forever grateful. To be fearless and patient. Imperfect steady action is the tortoise to the hare that is the current pace of social media quick fix, instant result culture. I feel like a have a new set of tools and am confident to build out my own suite of experience products.
