Dreams, hopes, desires, passion, ambition and goals…

These are the things that make you into the person you are today and the person you most want to be. Goals and ambitions undoubtedly play a crucial rule in your success. However, there’s more to this than meets the eye.

Strategy, smarts, brains…everything falls flat if you don’t work on the KEY element.

And that’s mindset.

Yes! I just said that. And if you’ve been in the entrepreneurial space for a while now, you must be familiar with this concept.

You hear experts talking about “work on your mindset”, “pesky little limiting beliefs”, “self-sabotage” and stuff like that. The thing is, you keep hearing all this yet you keep ignoring it.

When you think about building a 6-figure business, you roll up your sleeves and sit down to create a game plan. You come up with a strategy, all the resources and set your goals. You then start shooting for stars – one after another, but end up falling flat on your face.

 

You know why?

Because no matter how bad you WANTED it to happen, you never BELIEVED it.

Somewhere at the back of your head, you kept thinking about all the things that could possibly go wrong, all the reasons why it won’t happen or explanations that your offer is not good enough.

So it goes without saying that mindset work is as important as strategy, systems or smarts.

Our focus of the day?

Developing a 6-figure success mindset so you can kick self-sabotage to the curb every time it creeps in while UP LEVELING BIG TIME! 

I want you to write a letter of gratitude and date it December 2018. Sit down, relax, and let your thoughts flow. What have you achieved? How far have you come? What are the things that you are thankful for?

Don’t be judgmental or picky. Let your heart & desires flow. You don’t necessarily have to already BE there, but claim that space anyway because it’s yours for the taking. Make a habit of reading this letter first thing in the morning so you can stand in your power even when you don’t feel like it.

Do the homework above and once you complete your Day 5 challenge (or if you have any questions), post it in She’s Building Her Empire Community with the hashtag #Plan2Profit #Day5 and let’s embark on a beautiful journey to your dreams.

Not sure what I mean?  Don’t worry.  Join me live today  and I will give you a few examples.  I’m going to end this challenge with a bang, so would love for you to join me today at Noon CST for a Facebook Live on my business page and let’s all celebrate our dreams, goals and empower each other.

 

Much Love,

Stacy

P.S. I’ve got a riveting surprise for all of you that’s going to hit your inbox later today. Keep your eyes peeled!  Or if you are like me and can’t wait, join me LIVE for a sneak peak.  

 

 

 

Dec 7, 2017

OH MY WORD! I am so pumped for today! Yesterday, it was so heart-warming to see you being truly vulnerable, admitting your weaknesses and embracing your strengths. I hope you guys are feeling as fired up as I am to create an unforgettable year ahead.

Our focus of the day: 90 Day Plan: Creating a rock solid game plan and mapping out your first quarter so you can effortlessly ace your goals.

You are going to map out 12 weeks starting January 1st, 2018.

That gives you approximately 12 goals to keep you on track.

If you’re overwhelmed, that’s okay! Being passionate and creative entrepreneurs, there are always one million and one ideas bombarding our minds, BUT when it comes to implementing them… nothing makes sense.

That’s why I urge you to take 30 minutes or an hour out and give it your best, ask your partner to jump in or a friend to help you brainstorm.

Post your answers (or if you have any questions) with the hashtag #Plan2Profit #Day4 and let’s crush your goals the right way- one step at a time.

Excited to see what your first quarter goals are!

I would love you joining me live in my facebook business page www.facebook.com/stacytuschl @12 p.m. Central and let us digest these goals more.

Dec 6, 2017

Wow! I can’t believe it! We’re well on our way to Day 3 and I am so proud to see all the amazing work you’ve put in over the last two days. I commend you for being committed and determined to take your life and business to the next level in the coming year.

Our focus of the day: YOU!

Today, I’m going to share a strategy with you that is an integral part of my High-Performance Coaching and has helped me and my clients immensely over the years. It tells you where you truly stand and what you need to do to fill the gap to get where you want to be.

SWOT = STRENGTHS, WEAKNESSES, OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS

STRENGTHS

What are your business strengths? (What makes your business unique?)

What are your personal strengths? (What personal skills do you have that assist you in business?)

 

WEAKNESSES

What are your business weaknesses? (Where can you improve your business?)

What are your personal weaknesses? (What personal limitations are keeping you from giving 100% to your business?)

 

OPPORTUNITIES

What new opportunities do you see that will help you grow your business? (Partnerships, Affiliates, Collaborations, Podcasting, Guest Blogging, Tele-Summit, etc.)

 

THREATS

What are the threats to your business? (These can be personal i.e. time, energy, money or business i.e. rival coming in strong, consistency, changing business landscape)

Post your answers (or if you have any questions) with the hashtag #Plan2Profit #Day3 and find out what strengths and weaknesses your peers possess and how you can support each other as a community.

I'm going live today on www.facebook.com/stacytuschl @12 p.m. central. Don't forget to jump on.

Yesterday we talked about shaping your vision, getting clear about your truest desires and owning them by writing powerful statements of intention. WOW! That was fun.

And today, our focus is: Phase it Up - Breaking your BIG vision into tasty chunks (a.k.a. achievable phases) so you can finally live the life of your dreams.

Today, we will break down your dream into phases. It can be 3, 5 or 7 phases just so you can easily achieve each phase and move one step closer to your dream.

Let me give you an example: Your dream is to have an internationally renowned business that is impacting not hundreds or thousands but millions of lives.

This is how you’ll map out your 2018.

[ASSUMED] VISION FOR 2018: Be a bestselling author and generate $100K in revenue.

GOAL DIVISION:

First Quarter

Phase 1 – Map your book idea and hire help (either a coach or an accountability buddy)

Phase 2 – Begin writing the book alongside making a visibility plan for audience building

 

Second Quarter

Phase 3 – Start list building and begin establishing your expert authority as you write the book

Phase 4 – Finish the first draft and either submit to a Publishing Agency or run it by an editor

 

Third Quarter

Phase 5 – Draw up your marketing plan and connect with a publicist for book signing and talks

Phase 6 – Give your book the finishing touches and finalize the draft

 

Fourth Quarter

Phase 7 – Pre-Sell your book and ramp up the hype on your network (email, social media, local)

Phase 8 – Launch and take on the world.

Now you see, the vision may have seemed quite big (and clichéd), but when backed with a plan, it is realistic and achievable.

Your turn: Think about your vision for 2018 and then break it down into phases. Few key factors you need to keep in mind are:

  • Clarity (You may need it if you are starting out)
  • Marketing & Audience Building
  • Filling in the knowledge gap
  • Accountability & Support
  • Sales Mastery  
Dec 4, 2017

Focus of the day: Shaping Your Vision - Shaping a vision, getting clear as day about your truest desires and conquering your dreams, so you can live a hand-crafted life.

How do you dream big when the circumstances tell a completely different story? Where does one even begin to dream big, what comes first, second and third? What is a dream anyway, isn’t it something that usually happens in fiction and only a select few people ever get to achieve theirs?

Today we’re talking about…

  • Your impact on the world and how you want to be remembered.
  • What do you stand for?
  • How can you shine your light brighter?
  • What legacy do you want to leave for your kids?

So, write down the first thing that comes to your mind and complete the following sentences:

I am…

I will…

I help...

I prefer...

I would bring...

Post your answers with the hashtag #Plan2Profit #Day1 and get feedback, accountability and possibly win an exciting prize! Yes, the prize wheel is coming out soon!  ;-)

Do you want to start getting more clients and making more money?

I know you do.

Hence, you need to SELL your offer.

Seems ridiculously simple, doesn’t it?

Still so many awesome people I know just keep sitting on their offers, worried about facing judgment, rejection or failure.

Let me ask you a question.

How many times have you spotted a person you could help and said, “Hey, I’ve got the solution to what you are going through right now! Why don’t you try it and see how it makes a difference?”

Umm…NEVER, I assume.

You see, selling out an offer is a process. It takes time and most importantly, it takes commitment to make a difference with your amazing work.

Your initial attempts may fall on deaf ears, your posts may not get as much engagement as you had expected, people may not respond right away….

But this is where consistency, grit and follow-up techniques come in handy.

 

Day 5 – SELLING YOUR OFFER


Day 5 of the “5 Days to Your Irresistible Offer Challenge” is all about selling your offer in a way that feels good and empowering.

The fastest way to validate your offer, attract new clients and perfect your sales process is to create a BETA version of your offer or to pre-sell it to a handful of people in exchange for a raving case study.

People love being the “first”, getting the special treatment and that too at a special price.

Leverage that!

Nov 2, 2017

Times are changing.

Everything is becoming faster, better and easier than before.

And communicating with your audience in the online space is no exception.

We are not wired to slow & tiresome ways of doing things anymore.

We want to accelerate our ability to find solutions.

Likewise, when it comes to creating an irresistible offer, it’s important that you deliver it in a desirable way as well.

You don’t want your clients to put your offer on the back burner. Instead, you want them to fully utilize your offer so they can get a taste of it and come back for more.

Day 4 of the “5 Days to Your Irresistible Offer Challenge” is all about delivering your offer in a way that gets opened, clicked and devoured.

Day 4 – DELIVERING YOUR OFFER

With advanced and easy-to-use systems and processes, everyone has developed their own taste of things.

No longer can you expect your prospects to mold themselves in your given options, that’s why it’s vital that you understand the best way to serve them.

Today, we are going to pin-point how exactly you’re going to stand out in the marketplace with an offer that is a no-brainer for your people as it’s being delivered EXACTLY as they want it!

DAY FOUR ASSIGNMENT:

  1. What is your ideal customer’s preferred way of learning (Videos, Audio, Transcripts, Workbooks, or Daily Action Prompts)?
  2. Where are you going to host your content (Wordpress, Facebook Group, Kajabi, Thinkific)?
  3. What support avenues would you open for your clients during their time with you (Email Support, Facebook Group, Voxer Access)?

ACTION STEPS:

  1. Answer the questions above. 
  2. Share your answers in She’s Building Her Empire Communitywith the hashtag #Day4 #IrresistibleOfferChallenge
  3. Tune in at Noon CST to watch the LIVE class on delivering your offer over on my business page

 

Putting yourself in your client’s shoes has NEVER been more important that it is today.

Research is your best friend, ask them and deliver it!

Nov 1, 2017

You’ve got an offer.

A well-priced offer if I may.

But how do you make sure that the ones who need it see the ACTUAL value and grab it like yesterday?

How do you make sure that it doesn’t get buried in the sea of offers that are already being made?

How do you make sure that it stays mega-relevant to your ideal clients?

Day 3 of the “5 Days to Your Irresistible Offer Challenge” is all about solidifying your offer in a way that it becomes virtually impossible to ignore.

Your primary goal is to get people to recognize the true value of your offer (face value + underlying value) and then to associate it with your business ethics.

You want your prospects or target clientele to know that they can count on you when it comes to solving their problem, that you understand how one thing is affecting their whole life and that there’s a better way to do things.

THIS will be the foundation upon which you build the rest of your relationship.

 

DAY THREE ASSIGNMENT:

  1. Understand the ONE BIG BOLD outcome of your offer; the ultimate result you are providing.
  2. Now, note down the associated benefits (you may not realize it, but your solution is creating a ripple effect in their life. Think about all the ways it can help them).
  3. Your offer may feel redundant, but there’s always a way to spice things up. Think about how you can infuse a new life into your offer by adding a cherry on top! (YES! We’re talking about supplementary bonuses, specials and valuable extras).


ACTION STEPS: 

  1. Answer the questions above.
  2. Share your answers in She’s Building Her Empire Communitywith the hashtag #Day3 #IrresistibleOfferChallenge
  3. Tune in at Noon CST to watch the LIVE class on solidifying your offer over on my business page.

Listen up, your offer is more than just a way to make money in your business.

It’s a promise, a promise for a better future.

Make it worth their while.

Oct 31, 2017

Good work yesterday!

Getting clear about what your offer is going to be was step 1.

Step 2?

How much should you charge for that offer?

Exciting stuff, right?!!

We are all in business to make money, there is no denying that.

But how we make that money is equally important to the life and sustainability of your business.


We can either use “push” tactics to make people buy your offer… OR… we can “pull” the perfect clients in with a well-designed and beautifully-priced offer.

Day 2 of the “5 Days to Your Irresistible Offer Challenge” is all about pricing your offer in a way that becomes a total steal.


Day 2 – PRICING YOUR OFFER


Pricing is as much an art as it is a science, one that relies on market research as well as psychology of your perfect person.

When priced correctly, your offer can turbocharge your sales without you having to justify anything at all. Get your pricing strategy wrong and you may repel people without you even knowing about it.

But here’s the thing.

There's no one surefire way to price your offer the right way.

There really isn’t.

However, there certainly are some key factors that help you steer the ship in the right direction, i.e. insane clarity on your target clientele, active competitor research, and understanding the hidden benefits of your offer.

Clearer you are about the VALUE of your offer, easier it gets to charge a good price for your offer.

 

DAY TWO ASSIGNMENT:

  1. How are you currently being perceived within your industry? (Are you just starting out? Have you already made some ripples? Are you looking to scale?)
  2. What is your competition charging and how can you best price your offer to have an unfair advantage? (Offering higher or lower price is directly related to your perceived value)
  3. Will you offer a payment plan? If so, break it down (Ex. $997 can be broken down into $297 for 4 months).


ACTION STEPS:

  1. Answer the questions above. 
  2. Share your answers in She’s Building Her Empire Communitywith the hashtag #Day2 #IrresistibleOfferChallenge
  3. Tune in at Noon CST to watch the LIVE class on pricing your offer over on my business page.

Remember! Charging high-end prices for your hard work isn’t a far-fetched dream. But you do need to prime your audience enough to invest in you without any hesitation or remorse.

Welcome to Day 1 of the “5 Days to Your Irresistible Offer Challenge.”

Excited to dive in? I sure am!

Let’s get to it right away.

Day 1 is all about creating an offer that you can sell with absolute confidence and dignity – no sweaty palms, shaky hands or dry throat.

Now creating an offer isn’t rocket science. Anyone who has a little business know-how and willingness to make money can come up with an offer. But creating an offer that RESONATES with your ideal clients and SELLS like crazy is a whole new ball game.  

If you don’t create the right offer at the right time for the right people, you’re leaving your efforts up to chance.

And quite frankly, that’s a total waste of time and money.

After working with clients in various industries and creating my own offers, I’ve created an offer suite that I use to get people hooked, gain their trust and offer ultimate transformation – retaining them as lifelong happy customers.

This offer suite is there to NOT only help you establish yourself as an expert but also to get your perfect person obsessed with your work.

Beware though! You can’t expect to skip steps and have great results! Each offer type has its own time and place in your business journey so you must give them equal importance.


Day 1: CREATING YOUR OFFER

Types of offers:

  1. One time strategy session
  2. DIY Course
  3. Group Experience/Coaching
  4. Your Signature System
  5. High-level Mastermind
  6. Private Mentorship/Coaching

 

DAY ONE ASSIGNMENT:

  1. Write down the most basic yet excruciating pain your perfect person is facing right now. 
  2. How much time does your perfect person (a.k.a. ideal client) need to invest in your solution?
  3. What level of support are they looking for at this specific point in their life and in what form can you deliver it the best? (self-paced, group experience, 1-on-1 coaching/mentorship)

 

ACTION STEPS:

  1. Answer the questions above. 
  2. Share your answers in She’s Building Her Empire Communitywith the hashtag #Day1 #IrresistibleOfferChallenge
  3. Tune in at Noon CST to watch the LIVE class on creating your offer over on my business page.

Creating an offer that’s aligned with your current phase in business, your experience and your goals is the BEST thing you can do to yourself (and your business).

Remember! No step is too small or too big if taken with the right plan of action.  

Can’t wait to see what kind of offer you are going to create with us over the next 5 days!

See you in the Facebook Community!

Thank you for joining us! Today we are wrapping up my Five Day Challenge with a Q&A session. If you are yet to look at it, go and check out the last five episodes, where we really dug in deep to teach you how you plan, create and then actually go ahead and launch, in a ninety day period, whether you're launching a business or a  product.  Even if you missed the challenge, stick around, as I'm going live on my Facebook Page and I'll be answering everybody's questions about how to do this launch thing, so listen in carefully, because I know that you're really going to get so much out of it!

I'm super excited about today, because when we are doing our launch Q&A's, these are usually our big days, with lots of questions. People also know that when I do a Q&A after one of my challenges, I also do my giveaways. Today, I have a really fun prize, from my Dance Studios, as well as some other really cool things and I'm going to spin the wheel every five minutes and then  I'll be picking a winner from the people who have either posted their questions or have been engaging with me inside of She's Building Her Empire Facebook Community, so join me on the show today and see if you're a winner!

Show highlights:

  • “Do I have to offer a one to one at all, during this process?” From minute 10:40, Stacy answers Alicia's question and she also explains why she would not do a Thirty Day Challenge.
  • “What if I'm doing market research for a course I'm interested in doing, putting out questions and polls, but not getting great feedback. Do I create the course anyway, or do I continue to ask questions until I find a specific topic that gets great feedback?” From minute 13:58, Stacy addresses April's really good question.
  • How do I justify for the launch if it's just to fill in a few slots of private calls per month, not Premium priced programming?” From minute 15:13, Stacy answers Karen's question about whether or not it's worth going through the whole launch phase and she also explains what she would have done to build up excitement, in Karen's situation.

Welcome to Day 5 of our 5 Day Launch Challenge! We're talking about 3 deadly launch mistakes that you want to avoid! The whole point of launching is to be as successful as possible, so today we are talking about some of the mistakes that many people make when they launch.

 

The 3 Deadly Mistakes of a Product Launch:

 

1. Jumping Into a Launch - Sometimes it is tempting to just jump into your product launch! You can easily have unrealistic sales projections, which will make it worse on you when it doesn’t meet your expectations.

 

2. The 6 Figure Illusion - we think that achieving 6 figures in a launch is common place, and it’s not actually all that easy to hit that number. Someone having a 6 figure launch has probably launched products multiple times. Don’t give up after your first launch. Keep working on it and launching time after time.

 

3. Overconfidence - there is a fine line between being confident and being too confident. A launch isn’t easy and it’s not easy to hit big numbers. There is so much work behind the scenes, and personally, I have prepped for about 4 weeks before I launched. Have a strategy to make sure all your time is going into planning your launch.

Showing up and being consistent will give you the confidence you need to sell out your program.

Setting realistic goals, that are also ambitious is a good idea! It’s all a numbers game!

 

Listen to the episode to hear the case studies of actual clients that I’ve worked with.

 

Today’s action item to answer these 3 questions in the Facebook group:

 

  1. What are you going to do to avoid the costly launch mistakes?
  2. Would you be willing to invest time and money in a system to walk you through launch?
  3. What is the important to having accountability to keep your launch on track?

 

Post your answers in the FB group and tag it #launchedin90

 

The Profit Mastermind - Launched in 90 Days Doors are Open! - it’s a group of 20 women with weekly like calls for 90 days. There’s lots of training videos and a private FB group just for us! There are 3 phases to creating a product and this plan covers all of them!
