Climbing To The Top

Episode 63: Do you want a website...or an online business that automatically attracts clients?

How does your website perform for you? Does it bring you a steady stream of new clients who are already pre-sold on what you are about and what you offer? No? I get it. Which is why just recently I switched to a brand new place to build my main website – but one that will help and train you on how to build a proper online business. That company is Solo Build It and can be found at https://www.sitesell.com/ [https://www.sitesell.com/] Their new pricing (I only had the old pricing when this episode was recorded) is: $329.99 per year or $34 per month. Still an absolute bargain considering what you get for that. Let me know what you think.

Episode 62: What is it that you actually want?

What is it – exactly – that you want? Six figure income? Money in the bank? First class trips abroad? Nice cars? Dream house? All of the above? Or is it something a lot deeper? I’ve always struggled with the concept that money doesn’t buy you happiness. I would DEFINITELY be happy WITH money, so what does that actually mean?? It occurred to me recently (<-- duh! I mean, really? It’s taken me 52 years to suddenly realise this!) that what we actually want is something much deeper. In today’s episode I discuss exactly what that might be. And I bet I know what it is that YOU want too. Do let me know if I’m right!

Episode 61: Is it time to quit?

When do you know if it’s time to quit? Having had a very stressful few weeks where I have ended up burned out and stressed, it occurred to me that our ‘path’ is not our goal. If we continue to follow a path that’s only resulting in making us feel tired, stressed, burned out and tired rather than fulfilling our potential and reaching our goal, then it seems to me that it’s not the right path and we need to change to a new path. So, I hope you enjoy today’s episode and that it resonates with you. The book I was referring to is called You2 and is by Price Pritchett.

Episode 60: So...how DO you set a marketing budget?

You'll probably be spending on marketing, but having a considered and set amount for your marketing spend will help you get the best results, the best ROI and will prevent you wasting money. But, how do you set a marketing budget?  There are three official ways of setting a marketing budget and in this episode, I take you through what each of the methods are and which one you should choose depending on where you are with your business. I hope it's helpful, but if you are stuck and need to talk it through with me, then you can easily book a one hour consultation with me for just £120 (about $170) where I can help you determine the right marketing budget for you and your business, depending on your goals.  You can book that here: https://bit.ly/KRM_OneHour [https://bit.ly/KRM_OneHour]

Episode 59: Key Steps To Maximising Your Marketing on LinkedIn - interview with Amanda Brown

LinkedIn is one of the Big Three social media platforms, and if you operate in the B2B space, then you’ll no doubt be on there. BUT, do you know how to access all of its magic? For today’s episode, I have interviewed Amanda Brown – LinkedIn specialist. Over the past decade Amanda has trained hundreds of business professionals to use LinkedIn to build valuable networks and to use the platform as part of a wider online marketing strategy. She has an online programme, LinkedIn Liftoff, which teaches you how to use LinkedIn to showcase your expertise, generate leads, build high quality relationships and grow your business - without paying for a premium account and without spending hours on LinkedIn every day or spending money on ads. There are SO many golden nuggets in today’s episode: you will need a pen and paper to take notes! For instance: Amanda teaches us how to generate segmented leads...using polls (who’d have thought?!); How to target your audience in different time zones or at different times of the day – without generating any new content; How to get the best of out of LinkedIn Stories... ....and so very much more. It was great fun recording this, as you can tell from laughter peppering our entire interview, so I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed interviewing Amanda for you!
