Your Graduation Story
well I made it! I am writing this in a bit of contradiction... This has been one of the most challenging experiences of my life. On One hand Im relieved and happy that I attended every coaching session and finished every training... on the other, I feel frustrated that I still cannot ""see "" this in my minds eye, remember or integrate all this info process and detail into a workable model. Its just too much in this amount of time...I did my best while working full time to complete this course. I overshot my ability as I created a stretch goal of 3000.00.. I wanted to push my self , but as I got closer to marketing I realized the fact that Im in the weeds... I do not have the budget tech savvy or ability to organize and implement all this process content into a well oiled machine.
I really need to get out of the fee for service model of service delivery... I really see the potential of this type of experience product and marketing model...I still dont feel like i really know know what Im doing,,I have great content and a ton of facilitation experience, but I have made so many mistakes and really dont have too much confidence in marketing... I really stretched my self...created 2 surveys, made mistakes and made changes and got results that helped shape my mission statement...I did and continue to do a ton of chatterboxing, I have as of yet no responses for calls ( A taste of what I do call) and consequently no sales... I have had some interesting mixed feedback about this idea I have, but regardless, it feels good to get this far.
Im an artist and healer a very right brain type of person ... this program is well organized, but is a very challenging skill set for me to master. .. my resistance to the nuts and bolts work and follow through was huge... but given everything else Im juggling in my life...I feel good about what I learned and accomplished.
I realize that this is a long road and MANY times I was discouraged.. I do in a way feel like I failed but I remember that for now its feedback... it takes a lot of courage to keep going after all the work and time I put in with so little to show in sales, but I believe what Im offering has great Value in helping others, , and that its just not refined in the right marketing process yet.. so I will carry on and learn or ""iterate"" my way forward
I did receive some incredible assistance from people in the community..and the coaching was also valuable... and the side bar info very good... but often too ""surface"" for me in this format... in terms of the questions and deeper support I require...I do much better with real time talking ...so Im a bit conflicted here.
I decided to get the Heroic and Experencify program trials... but again it already feels totally overwhelming to get those programs under my belt ... I feel like Im reinventing my entire way of doing things...as this launch is still going on..I am going to look them over in detail as much as I can to attempt to see if this can work for me. I dont know what to compare this to...its a totally unique thing... To feel like Im completed but didnt ""successfully"" cross the finish line.So its onward and upward

Nothing in my business so to speak really has changed..

I am discouraged but still inspired to carry on
