It Breaks My Heart: Free Consultations Leading to Little Action
May 19th, 2008 · Filed Under: Impatient Marketing · Small Business Marketing Success
Can’t believe I’ve offered free consultations to several members of some networking and mastermind groups I teach at. They have gotten to know me, heard me “Give Away” tens of thousands of dollars of information, and offer my most valuable asset for Free (My Time). And what kind of response have I had to this offer?
About 9 of 10 people walk up to me after an event, excited and promising they will take actionкомпютри to change their lives by calling and meeting with me. I literally can map out a program worth $1,000-$2,500 in less than 90 minutes. As an Impatient Entrepreneur, I’m bored and fed up with going around the learning curve, and setting people up for teach a little sell a little coaching.
So let me ask you, are you taking advantage of the opportunities presented to you everyday?
I get invited to participate in at least 7-10 seminars a day, all for free. Yet I hear the same people on the calls or in the seminars that are info-junkies not action takers.
The flip-side of this, I sell my coaching for Thousands of dollars per month and these people pay on time, never complain, and they get results…sometimes faster than they can handle. They never had a free session, they just knew they wanted the best paths mapped out for them and a coach to motivate them and hold them accountable while pushing them to achieve greater and greater results.
It breaks my heart that so many people can’t afford my higher end coaching, and giving it away for free hasn’t worked… what’s next? I’m looking at launching a lower cost program of 2. Somewhere between $47- $1200/month, each with a variety of results coaching.
