Changing the Game Around Money | Meet Mint.com the Money-Saving Tool that Could

Sorry for this, but, don’t ever tell me you can’t change things. That goes for me too, on my Eeyore-channelling woe-is-me days. You know them, right? The days when you rage against the machine and shake your fist at the $2.50 EXTRA the ‘establishment’ wants to charge you for taking a measly $20 of YOUR OWN money out of your very own bank account?

But wait. This little company called Mint.com, it’s just another online tool, right? Err…nope, not actually. It IS an online tool that allows you to manage your money and… actually saves hundreds of dollars for its users on their very first try. Real money, like the stuff we all work to earn.

The tool itself? Is free. But of course.

As a Canadian, most of my banks are not yet supported, but American clients and friends who’ve tried it since Michael Port introduced me, report that it is indeed nothing short of a money revolution, showing the banks what they should have been doing for us all along. Even if you don’t sign up, I highly recommend a peruse around the site, starting with the kind words section.

For those of you who CAN use it, hurray, I’m green! Enjoy…no more excuses. Clarity and better money management are ahead. I do so love that thought leadership comes in so many forms. And heartfelt congratulations to the leaders at Mint.

From Overwhelm to Actual Learning | Produce Learning Guides or Mastery Guides not just Transcripts

Engage Mike before Year-End and Receive A Package of Tweet-worthiness

Total transparency in the face of a shameless (but hopefully valuable) plug…

You may know that my husband Mike is a writer. He writes fiction, including screenplays, but in recent years has done a lot of supportive writing for me in the form of dozens of written products such as workbooks; large-scale compilations such as the Thomas Leonard materials; blog posts; and most recently Mastery Guides for the Online Business Manager Certification program.

Mike recently wrote Mastery Guidelines for Online Business Manager Certification.

Of course, as helpful as he is, it’s been natural for me to recommend him to coaching clients for special work they’ve needed. Ghostwriting of books and ezines, from scratch, blog babysitting, and more. But the last cool thing – taking overwhelming transcripts which are nearly impossible to learn from – and converting them into actual course guides that flow, read professionally, and make learning stick… well, this is worth sharing with you all.

If you’d like to see a before and after sample of ‘notes’ to ‘mastery guide’ or ‘transcript’ to ‘mini-workbook’ or even discover whose newsletter gets ghostwritten in their voice, so well that you couldn’t tell it was ghostwritten (shhhh) Mike is taking inquiries at mike@writingreliefnow.com.

Mike’s writing makes learning stick.

The end of the year being a little quieter, he is also offering to sweeten the pot for you if the timing happens to be write (oopsie, couldn’t help it) to put a project in his queue for December. Check out his blogsite at www.writingreliefnow.com for samples and pricing, and then write him at the above email address with ‘Tweet Bonus please’ in the subject line, if interested. For each project of a certain size booked in December, he’s offering to write you a package of unique and valuable tweets, tailored to your audience. One of his superpowers seems to be finding intriguing topics worth sharing.

So, see what you think! And enjoy, Mike is one of those rare very interesting people, if I can say that about my own husband. Far as I can tell, it’s because he’s genuinely interestED, in you. First come, of course, first served, just in time to kick the new year off with a nice shiny piece of writing, done for you.

Will I See You in Orlando at the ICF Conference? December 2-5, 2009 at Booth #203

After speaking twice at the International Coach Federation, then exhibiting twice, I’d enjoyed being ‘a nobody’ at the last couple.

This year, with my work on the Thomas Leonard legacy, and strategic role advising CoachVille.com, I will be there with bells on, once again in the Exhibit Hall.

There will be photo opps, gifts – but of course – lots to browse, classes to consider, and of course, energy to soak up, eyeball to eyeball. If you’re going to be there, be sure to drop by so we can gape at each other in the flesh, please. For most of us, it’s been too long.

Here’s a photo from earlier this summer when the CoachVille team visited chez nous. Our front yard actually looks not bad when it isn’t being drenched!

The $25,000 to $100,000 Coaching Mastermind Program | Gimme The Scoop!

‘Tis the season for year-end scrambles to fill new year-long coaching programs, so if you have ‘fill in application’ exhaust from reading newsletters these days, I can’t say I blame you. It seems like 95% of the great coaches in the community have chosen this week to announce their new offerings.

That said, these high-priced, high-commitment offerings didn’t happen overnight, and some of the biggest mastermind programs have just completed their first season.

So what is the scoop? Are these programs generating results? Are people buying in the second year? How do I do one? Do I really have to sign up for one to make big money? What is everyone else doing so I can be just different enough?

I’ll keep you posted on all those things, AND how you can do one – in the flavour of you – in the days to come, as I’ve received some requests to provide an X-ray analysis in the form of a new class.

Interested? Email me to send questions and indicate early-interest.

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 eat, breathe and sleep Multiple Streams, and help others do the same. Read more here…

Save these Dates | Thought Partners International live event March 18 – 20

Have you ever been almost 3 weeks on the road?

It’s a fascinating experience, especially when the goal is to get market intelligence on what’s happening in the event world, the most current highly leveraged business models in play, and…to strengthen partnerships.

If you’ve been taking part in the fall frolic of live trainings, may I wish you a warm welcome home?

And if you haven’t been, but feel you may ‘want some of that’ a quick head’s up that the much-requested live event from Thought Partners International will be taking place next year, on March 18 through 20 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

As I hope you’ve come to expect, there will be box-breaking of the extraordinary kind, not just in terms of nourishing content that fulfills, a standard-raising level of conversation and business building, and, of course, extreme value of the jaw-dropping kind.

Plans are heating up, but the dates are in, so, if you’re the type to do that, please save them!

And email me with ‘March Vancouver’ in the subject line if you’d like the early announcement to secure tickets at – seriously – PRE early-launch pricing. I look forward to a memorable experience creating value for our world, together.

Me, Wrinkly, In My First Web Video | Taking Requests for what you need…

Part of my travels last month took me to Stuyvesant Town, New York, where I was interviewed by the Coaching Commons about the phase 1 work we’ve been doing to bring the Thomas Leonard legacy to more coaches.

Phase II starts about now, where we go about cracking other markets.

Considering how much travel dust I have on me (18 days?), how much wind was blowing, and how complex I find the Thomas stuff to talk about sometimes…how do you think I did? Click the screenshot to view.

And hey, enough narcissism…what about the actual topic of the video? Is there something from the Thomas vault, YOU could really benefit from using, and if so, may I invite your to request, the better to grant it? I’d like to know.

TIMELY Open House Call for Virtual Support Pros: “How to Work for and become indispensable to… High End Clients”

At times it seems like business owners and the virtual support professionals who work for them are speaking two different languages… which isn’t too far off from the truth.

Having worked online now since 1999 has given us the unique perspective of being able to see both sides… and being able to see clearly where these disconnects are occurring.

On this no-fee call, you will learn:

• The top 5 reasons why these working relationships are falling apart (it is usually the simplest things that cause the biggest issues)
• What business owners REALLY want from you (and it’s not what you think)
• The 3 best things you can do for your clients (but they won’t ask you specifically for help in these areas)
• The one thing that – if done right – will make you an in-demand, highly paid and indispensible virtual support professional.

Join us won’t you? It’s time to stop struggling and start creating the powerful and profitable relationships that we and our clients deserve. Click here to register.
