Chances are, you already have everything you need at your finger tips to build a loyal following of people who want to pay you every single month for more access to you, your content or your services.

The question is, are you giving them the chance to give you money each and every month?

If you are, great. During this presentation you’ll learn a variety of strategies to increase your monthly sales.

If not, I have even better news because you’re about to discover the fastest (and easiest) method for taking content you already have and quickly turning it into a monthly revenue stream.

Generally this is referred to as a “membership site” but don’t let the word “membership” throw you off.

There are a lot of different “types” of memberships and during this presentation we’ll talk about the most popular ones and how they releate to you and your business.

Plus, we’ll also talk about:

• The most effective tools that make setting up a membership site easy and effortless (even if you’re not a technical genius!)
• Layout and design tricks that naturally seduce non-members into joining your membership
• Content strategies that will keep your members “hooked” month after month
• The most effective areas within your membership site for audio and video messages (knowing this can immediately improve the “experience” your members have in your site)
• Proven strategies for increasing community “interaction” inside your membership site
• And much more!

So dial in early, buckle your seat belts and get ready for an action packed session focused on how to take what you’ve already got and turn it into a monthly revenue stream.

About Melinda:

Melinda is a woman of spirit and vision who believes that spirit and business go hand in hand or as she would say, heart in heart, to create great opportunities for people and the world we inhabit. She began her career as a creative interior design professional and manager. Her ability to create systems and organize business and personal spaces to reflect the heart and soul of the owner served her customers well. Melinda discovered bringing subtle amounts of organization to an environment could positively impact the people inhabiting the space.

She then realized the same effect could be achieved by organizing one’s efforts around a central purpose, identifying goals and objectives to drive a person’s daily activities. Melinda excels in her ability to listen and draw a client into meaningful conversations about their desired outcomes and coaching seemed like a natural means to use that talent. Melinda has been a successful coach and consultant ever since her discovery.

As Visionary, President and co-founder of The Coaches Console Melinda has been able to combine spirit and business in a unique manner that allows her to share her knowledge with other coaches to forward their success as well as the coaching industry as a whole.

How should you sell offerings – programs, coaching, products, etc – when you’re in person at a live event as a presenter, or, perhaps leading your own workshop? You’re the coach, the expert, the presenter, so what happens to your audience when you get all sweaty and nervous when it comes time to invite them to purchase something from you? It’s a giant disconnect, right? It’s important to master, otherwise you’re entirely out of integrity.

Consider this the ‘inside peek’ at the little things you can do to create an environment that supports the buying process your participants go through. Like the ‘stager’ who prepares a house for sale, these may seem like small details but in fact are the spit and polish that can make a big difference.

Note, this does not entail a hard-sell filled with hype! You will hear little things to say at the beginning, middle and end of your talk, no matter how long, and, what to instruct your team to do, to make a big difference in your comfort and confidence level. And, whether you’re getting paid a fee or not, you will be able to create more residual income and halo effect from your talk than before, thus leveraging your time. Be prepared for a mindset shift around how your invitations can be authentic, not pushy, and you’ll become to see a difference in your money, honey!
