partnerships
Service-based business, online entrepreneurs, and coaches require specific business development skills related to visibility, personal branding, and practical marketing & sales systems that are often not included in accelerators, incubators, and education & certification programs.
Many new, highly motivated entrepreneurs are leaving these programs feeling confident, inspired, and ready to work ...
But they quickly realize they:
-
Don't actually know what do to get customers and grow their business
-
End up following advice that doesn't apply to them and wasting time, money, and energy on things that won't move their business forward or bring in sales
-
Don't have a clear marketing & sales strategy or an action plan to follow, leaving them lost, confused, and feeling defeated before they even start
That's where our partnership with my Ick-Free Sales Community comes in!
the issue...
Service-based business, online entrepreneurs, and coaches don't need complicated business plans, meetings with investors, to enter pitch competitions, accelerators & incubators or to apply for funding and grants. Those strategies are better suited for tech startups, product, and manufacturing businesses.
Service-based business, online entrepreneurs, and coaches are unique and require a different approach to business development
The often fall in line with a "self-employed" business model in their early years and need to focus on...
-
Building their networks for clients, referral partners, collaborators, leaders, and other important relationships within their eco-system
-
Growing their email lists and establishing themselves as a subject matter expert through speaking gigs, collaborations, and other opportunities for exposure to the right audiences
-
Build their personal brand recognition and put their business on the map in the communities and spaces where their customers are looking for them
-
Build their sales pipelines, including automated sales funnels, long-game SEO content marketing funnels, and basic sales call funnels
-
Find their voice, build their confidence, and get into strategic action that makes sense for THEIR business model
-
Understand their market, fine-tune their revenue streams, figure out what works and what doesn't so they can make money, hire people to help them grow, and scale out of self-employment into a business that runs without them doing all the work
the ick-free sales system!
The Ick-Free Sales System is a complete business development system specifically designed for service-based business, online entrepreneurs, and coaches that teaches them the Visibility + Marketing + Sales Skills they need to learn for their business model.
More importantly, they are not taught how to "copy" someone else's strategies. Participants are taught how to think strategically about how to apply these skills to their business, and to think cohesively about how all of these strategies work together to help them get sales and grow a brand.
The Ick-Free Sales Community is built on 3 pillars:
1. Business Skills & implementation
2. Group coaching & guest experts
3. Community connections
