Canadian Thanksgiving Juju: *WIN* A Copy of ‘Advanced Streams of Coaching Income’ Contest Rules Here PLS RT
Canadian Turkey Day, ahhh, all that tryptophan coursing through the veins of the nation. Mmm…cranberry sauce. You know, the only hope for a cranberry patch before the ‘move-over-raisin, now there’s something yummier’ craze kicked in.
Except, at our house, Mike was perverse and made an unworldy prime rib roast with Yorkshire pudding instead.
We’re blessed in more ways than one, for sure.
In honour of giving, with thanks, I’m giving away 5 copies of the Advanced Streams of Coaching Income Multimedia kit on Friday, October 16. This is the meat-off-the-bones stuff taken from years of individual coaching on Multiple Streams. The stuff that – if integrated, mind you – can really take you head and shoulders above the run-of-the-mill information business. The kind of coaching you want to run a marathon, as opposed to a sprint. Long haul stuff.
With 5 MP3s – one full track on each strategy, including examples sites and how-to steps – plus an immediately useful mini workbook (not transcript) – I am quite pleased with how this turned out. It can be hard to convey advanced strategies when not working on specific businesses, but this turned out so well, we’ve now released it in digital format at the Thought Partners store.
You can read more about the product (retails for US $96.75 – 5 individual MP3s plus mini-workbook) including the 5 strategies themselves here: http://bit.ly/Lruhb
So how can you win one of the 5 digital copies?
How to Enter
Tell me why you’re ready for the advanced strategies. In other words, what you’ve done with basic multiple streams concepts. In your current business, what non-1-on-1 coaching revenue streams have you successfully created, how, and to what extent? Your success so far will demonstrate to me your readiness for the advanced steps. Concrete results and example links will help.
No longer than 3 paragraphs please, and shorter is way okay.

Mmhmm, I really wanted to make sure I didn’t forget the link. Maybe prime rib has tryptophan in it too?

I look forward to reading your entries and making the Canadian Turkey deities smile!
Doubled my income …Recordings as Powerful as Live Coaching, available at the Press of a Button…
“Andrea’s Advanced Strategies for Multiple Streams audios were exactly what I was looking for, coaching and a gentle kick in the pants from Andrea at the push of a button. Andrea seems to coach you through the audios as though you are sitting with her and just like she would coaching you live.
The strategies have had an amazing impact on my business in 2009. I’m very creative and my brain pumps out a million ideas for products and offerings a day. With the help of the Advanced strategies, my income has doubled over last year and I’m a sought after expert in my field.”

Hi Andrea! I’ve been a subscriber of yours for a short while, and I’m just so grateful to have come at such an auspicious time. Yay Canadian Thanksgiving for the win!
I’m ready for advanced streams of income, and right now my streams are more like little rivulets than big streams.
So far I’ve got a few streams working for me: a solid adsense cheque every month, some affiliate sales income from a combination of places (including Amazon), 1-on-1 coaching, small one-off live events where I teach raw food, and this month I’ll be releasing a group program.
I feel like I’ve got a grasp on the concept of multiple streams of income, but I know there’s so much more than what I’ve been doing! I’m totally ready to tap into that, and I know your program is going to help with that.
Thank you.
Oh wow, I don’t know if I consider myself in the running, but I have so been a fan of yours forever as you know, from the CoachVille days, through the first Mulitple Streams club & conference in San Mateo, CA and the PinkSpoon (now I just wrote “PinkSpook” and had to erase & retype – LOL!) teachings. You really showed us how it was done, Andrea, and greatly informed my marketing capabilities. A few of my points of leverage, from this material I can’t put here because your blog won’t accept multiple URLs, so here’s the one to my blog entry about it:

Kudos to you!!
Woohoo Andrea, you have me inspired! I am on the journey – leveraging is paramount! Putting all the structure, systematisation and automation in place and then taking it all up a notch is the goal!
Here is a snippet of my blog post on this inspiring subject!
Wow, I feel inspired! Andrea J Lee, founder of Pink Spoon Marketing and Multiple Income Streams for Coaches, has put out a challenge! I am feel compelled to rise to it!
She is asking what we have done in our business’s to leverage our time, so that ….

I hope to get one of those wonderful packs!
Coach Louise
What non 1 on 1 revenue streams have I created? After years of doing one-on-one coaching for two major national coaching companies and also opening my own company, I noticed that almost all of my clients wanted the same three things — to get more business, have more fulfilling relationships and get their bodies back in shape. I knew that trading my time for money (one-on-one coaching) would never deliver the business of my dreams…especially coaching for others. My passion was coaching and not sales. As long as I felt that way, building my business was an effort.
Soooo….now my business has two sides: I have become a facilitator for Get Clients Now! and offer a group coaching program, which delivers a content rich program while I myself invest minimal time. I’ve also become a health coach for Take Shape for Life, which offers meal replacement products that deliver 2-6 pounds of weight loss every week and helps people get off of meds and restore their energy. With TSFL, I’ve built a team — and now most of my coaching efforts are towards helping my teammates grow their businesses. I also have many clients that are on the program, and I coach them through the barriers they have built around body image and food issues.
So what are the multiple streams? Group coaching, residual income from building a great team and pouring into them, and commission coaching income paid to me by the company for supporting their clients.
A few things I’ve learned — I love these programs because I can just step into them. You really don’t have to reinvent the wheel. It is expensive and time consuming to create all that uniqueness. Find a product or service you really believe in — something that really works — and start telling people about it. Once they commit, then the coaching is the easy part.
The GCN coaching groups really leverage my time. Now my TSFL business grows mostly by referral and my group volume is getting huge because I love business coaching. It was hard getting over that thing where I felt I had to create everything — but life is so much simpler now. A career I am proud of, a lot less stress, a lot more money and a job that I can truly work in with my family and life commitments.
RE: giving away 5 copies of the Advanced Streams of Coaching Income Multimedia kit on Friday, October 16.
Andrea,
Going back to 1999 with “The Thomas Days” I’ve built up executive coaching, management consulting, book publishing, music recording, corporate training, website marketing, and academic teaching streams of income. Ten years later, I’m still around with your Best of Thomas twice-monthly calls and READY for more!
THANKS
P.S. WHO ELSE COULD WRITE making the Canadian Turkey deities smile ?
Thanks to you we have a pink spoon (monthly free Ask SixFigureStart call), the funnel (from free to $3,000, more for corporates), and a healthy balance of business and tech (blogsite, pro shopping cart, downloadable products). We have doubled revenues from last year while moving to more passive income. The business is becoming more virtual, more leverageable, and more scalable). I have been a fan of Multiple Streams, your Thomas offerings, and your partner offerings (e.g., Sandra DeFreitag’s book). Your stuff is cutting edge but practical. We still have a lot we want to do (e-books, community, more products in the funnel) so I hope to get the Advanced course to help take us there!
Awesome entries, guys! I am thrilled you’ve entered the contest. I will be selecting the winner on Friday at noon pacific so keep the entries coming and stay tuned!
LOL David, making the Canadian Turkey deities smile…there, I wrote it again.
Hi Andrea – as you know I was totally inspired by reading your book Multiple Streams Of Coaching Income and in fact interviewing and providing the recording to my clients is my Pink Spoon, right on the front page of my website! Following on from the advice in that book I then devised my own product funnel, created an eBook, dabbled with a membership site and created an online/group coaching programme, Making It Happen, as a companion to the Multiple Streams Of Coaching Income book to help other coaches do the same.
I’ve applied the principles again with my new product JigsawBox and have a free trial as my pink spoon, an online self-coaching Grow My Coaching Business package designed specifically for those JigsawBox owners, then a group coaching programme and 1:1 offerings all based around that same content.
I eat, breathe and sleep Multiple Streams, and help others do the same. I say and think ‘product funnel’ and ‘pink spoon’ like Gordon Ramsay uses the ‘f word’ so I definitely deserve to win one of your Advanced Strategies packages
Andrea,
Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks for the great opportunity! I’ve been enjoying your newsletters. Thanks for them too. I have much to be thankful for!
Warm regards,
Angie
Hi Andrea,
I get a lot of emails and yours always stand out.
Thanks for the time & effort that you put in.
For non one on one coaching I facilitate groups of business owners who share their Income Statements and marketing materals with each other. I provide them each with a spreadsheet showing all of their numbers lines up side by side and the group averages. They are similar businesses in different trading areas.
The meetings happen 6 times per year and I do 1 on 1coaching with them in the other 6 months so it is a good combo.
I have also developed an on-line business coaching platform with a process and program.
Other coaches are licensed and I share in their revenues. No up front costs, but the coaches have to do their own marketing which the website & system makes easy. Typical clients pay 1,500 per month and the program gets 25% dropping to 10% after the training period.
The ROCK SOLID Business Coaching Program delivers real value to the clients.
It has taken me years to refine it to the point where it lives up to its name.
Not that I didn’t deliver value when I coached, but to the point where others can as well.
It is actually aimed at prospects who are coaching resistant.
Get their business running well and then they are fun to coach because they have time and money.
I have some of the coolest clients you’d ever hope to meet.
One was named a top 4 CEO in Canada last year.
I’d like to win because there is a lot of material in the program that can be developed into stand alone revenue streams for participating coaches.

HI Andrea!
Thanks for this generous offer. Multiple Streams of Coaching Income sure has been a guiding light for me, especially after I’d finished my core coach training. I really felt alone and not sure how to set out. I read the book like a novel of possibilities! Since then I’ve tried out several, including ecourses, webinars and teleseminars (most recently I’ve partnered my relationship coaching with a nutritionist for “the Relationship Cleanse” (www.relationshipcleanse.com) and an affiliate program (http://tinyurl.com/yhykprd). I even tried a coaching gym- which I’d like to revisit.
As my coaching and vision have evolved, I want to step back into some of the tools I’ve used yet step into them with an advanced strategies mindset to meet my clients in the new place that reflects my experience and their needs, while continuing to develop new audiences. I’m really quite tickled to see what you have in store for us! I feel like I’m in a different place in my business and can’t wait to integrate and adapt your models and tools to help me develop from this new threshold.
As I reach out to a different echelon and take my coaching to a more visible stage globally, it’s become all the more important to have services, programs and leverage to match. I’m becoming more ‘me’ in my business and desire new and refreshed ways to reflect and implement that. I’m ready, I’m excited and admittedly a little awed! I’d be delighted and rather comforted to have a friend and guide along the way. I think the Advanced Streams of Coaching Income Multimedia will be exactly that.
Thanks for your consideration. I can’t wait!
With gratitude,
Randi
Hi Andrea,
I’m now ready to get paid for the mulitple streams! I do training and coaching and consulting and have done so for 2 decades. People have always metnioned to write it down – don’t keep everything in your head and know I am ready to create workbooks to put out ther and train-the-trainer workshops as well as group coaching.
I’m always open for new creative ideas to implement.
Santina
Wow, Andrea, you never cease to amaze me with your leadership and generosity! I’ve been a major fan of your work since the day I met you at an ICF conference (and bought every one of your books at the time). While I have read and reread portions of your work I will say I’m a slow learner. Advanced work definitely pulls me forward, particularly when I don’t feel ready. It took me years to learn that as a single working parent I can’t afford to do only 1-1 coaching. Over the last few years I have developed beyond that with workshops, mailings (an unofficial newsletter and resource center), writing (an unfinished e-book) and groups. My latest venture has been weekend retreats at my vacation home in the Hamptons. While the first 2 went pretty well I see a real opportunity to expand it with some refinement… there is incredible interest and it’s currently under construction! Moving forward I have a curiosity about the coaching gym concept.
The most important thing I’ve learned from you is the need for a methodology. My coaching practice began very reactionally instead of intentionally. I’ve been working to create the information and know that the next step is the infrastructure (Your strategy #1). The concepts are starting to crystallize and I feel like I am on the precipice of really evolving my practice into a business. To do that I have to master the leverage game.
You’ve been incredibly inspiring with both Thomas’ and your wisdom and I know that I (as well as all of us) would greatly value this gift whomever you decide to award it to.
Don’t drink, smoke or carouse, but I’ve become addicted to AJL, TJL and MOSCI. If they put it out, I WANT it!
