Look Where Others Are Not, Then Go There! | Mobile Technology Is Your Friend
July 30, 2010 by Andrea J. Lee
Filed under For Coaches
As you might imagine, I often get asked – standing for something bold sounds
good, but how do I start? There are many ways to answer this question, depending on where you’re starting. But one of the most tried and true ways is to ‘look where others are not.’
Since we’re on the topic of books this issue, let me quote "The Art of War". “Go where the enemy least expects you.” And while it’s not so PC to call our competition ‘the enemy,’ it’s a useful construct. Where on the battlefield, or playing field, if you prefer, is there a ‘hole’ in the market? What isn’t being done by anyone and why not you? These are some of the most important questions to ask, to stir that thought leadership pot.
Do you have any sense of what you could do that would help you stand out, far above the noisy market, helping people be in hot pursuit of you, rather than you having to chase them?
That’s one of the big benefits of bothering to be bold.
We are going bold this fall as well, with the even bigger gamble of taking our 3-Day Live Event in San Francisco, and making the Simulcast version available via mobile technology. It’s another one of the ‘Big 3’ trends I’m teaching to every small business owner who’ll listen. You still have a chance to grab the ‘early adoption’ wave on mobile for your market. What’s keeping you?
Oh right, you’re reading my newsletter…got it. Well… are you curious about how this we’ll apply mobile technology to this oaching/training/speaking/writing business? And how it could apply to you too, even if you’re on a budget, and all that? We have information calls and mini-e-courses in the works. Go here for details and sign up.

A Strong Return on Investment –even coming from the other side of the globe!
“Having coached with Andrea for several years, I wasn’t going to miss her live event – even if I had to fly halfway around the world. As expected, Andrea over-delivered and not only was I was able to crystallize what the next steps were in my business, I also found people willing to partner with me! Going to the Wealthy Thought Leader was an investment in myself, one that has already generated a return many times over the cost of admission.”

Multiple Streams of Coaching Income for 2010 | What’s Changed and How Does That Affect You?
July 8, 2010 by Andrea J. Lee
Filed under For Coaches
While the structure of the house has remained the same, some of the rooms inside have been renovated and redecorated.” 
This is how I describe the nature of Multiple Streams of Coaching Income in 2010 – the concept of having additional ways to earn money on top of 1-on-1 coaching.
It’s rare now, to find a coach who ‘only’ does 1-on-1 coaching. Looking closely, I think you’ll find they likely also get paid doing something else.
Heartfelt individuals find their way to thank me still – they’re grateful to be able to express themselves as a coach but not be enslaved to the one format, their love for coaching leaching out of them one appointment at a time.
So if the basic structure of the House of MSOCI has stayed the same, how have the rooms been renovated? Here’s a recap, including the new fashionable colors for 2010. (No avocado-colored appliances, sorry to disappoint.)
The 8 Steps to Building Multiple Streams of Coaching Income (MSOCI) Updated for 2010
Step 1. Discover Your Niche Market. This is also known as a group of people with common issues or concerns, that ‘hang out’ together. Your niche market enables you to access ‘invisible’ pockets of clients.
UPDATE for 2010: Your Niche Market can still be a straightforward group, however, those pockets are increasingly occupied. How to leap to the front of the pack? Combine two niche markets, or tribal groups, say Tribe A and Tribe B.
In doing so, like the proverbial peanut butter and chocolate, you raise the grain on a new tribe that self-identifies more fiercely and loyally than either A or B alone.
Some leaders with an existing ‘A’ niche will naturally add a ‘B’ niche as their business & thinking mature, rallying this AB tribe with their leadership. In turn, this allows the business owner to drill down deeper, add greater value, and increase fees. Notice: veterans who don’t find a ‘B’ niche to add may find themselves becoming less relevant, and lose market advantage – stall out.
What if you’re just starting out? You can go the traditional route, or jump right into an AB combo. Whether veteran or newbie, the principle and implementation is very similar. It’s a conceptual difference. You get to choose which route to take.
Example: Firefly Occasions – Niche A: live event management. Niche B: luxury weddings. AB combination leading to 6-7 figure leap, and rabid fans/clients? Haute Couture business events.
Summary: New combinations of groups are forming as societal changes evolve human behaviour. Stay on top of emerging trends to sense these patterns first.
Step 2. Elicit the Problems. What’s being experienced most vividly by this group of people…”What’s keeping them awake at night?” In this step your job is to listen CLOSELY to what the market is saying.
UPDATE for 2010: Conventional wisdom, which still applies, teaches to survey and otherwise engage the market in dialog about what it most wants, then deliver it. What’s now possible, where it wasn’t 5 years ago, is to KNOW, or be exquisitely tuned to, the market’s problems in advance of the market realizing it has them.
This may sound like magic, but only until you pay some attention. There ARE certain things you can assume about what your market is going through. And because the individuals in the market aren’t paying as much attention to themselves as you are to them…you seeing these problems quickly, and articulating them clearly (compared to other leaders in your market) lends you a powerful credibility.
Example: Overwhelm. Out of a handful of such examples, overwhelm is powerful in its simplicity. Generalizations can be odious, but it’s quite safe to say that NO ONE is currently not overwhelmed. If your market doesn’t talk about this overtly, YOU can connect the dots for them. The resulting ahas are doorways through which you can provide value and RELIEF.
Test this with the opposite – if you don’t presume overwhelm for your CURRENT clients, what are you stepping over in their lives and doing a disservice as a result?
How might the pre-2010, conventional way of building Multiple Streams through surveys, etc, be limited, though admittedly still a fine way of proceeding? What might be possible for your business if you tap into the 2010 ethos?
Summary: Deeper insights about your market are available more quickly to anyone willing to look. More ways to communicate this understanding of your market are available than ever before. This means you can position yourself as the person that sees, hears, understands and can help most, better than ever before.
Each of the 8 steps to building Multiple Streams of Coaching Income has an equivalent upgrade, and each of them will be the subject of a future article, to complete the above.
But this is pretty heady stuff, so let’s leave it at this for now.
If your Multiple Streams business is:
- Doing fine, thank you, but not invigorated, and maybe even a little limp.
- Just not coming together or won’t stand up as a whole, the pieces seem to sit there, confused, missing the top of the puzzle box.
- Only a vision, basic plan or hope, as-yet-unborn because you’re too busy with 1-on-1 clients, life as a whole, and you don’t know enough yet….
…the Multiple Streams of Coaching Income Short Summer Course for 2010
…with its readily-affordable fee that includes two coaching sessions delivered by yours truly – will go into updated 2010 detail for all 8 steps, with examples and action steps.
Your multiple streams business has the opportunity to pass by the current traffic jam of competition and take the helicopter view instead.
Say no to the grind of putting in a ton of effort, selling two products, and getting one refund. No to infocrap. And prepare to become uncatchable.
Tiered pricing that rewards early registration is in place, details here:
(I’m not one to tout astronomical hourly rates for show, however it’s true that the Summer Short Course is the most affordable way to receive individual attention from me, and very likely will not be repeated. Fall brings with it lots of activity and my hope is to take Summer of 2010 to inject a little coaching love in spots that need it, now.)
Last but not least – we start next week! So I won’t be sending out reminders – this is it. And yes, the recordings will be made available for anyone (veterans especially) who just want to hear the 2010 Updates to the beloved 8 steps.
I’ve been part of two conversations within the coaching world this week that have put a pall on my heart:
- A long-time coach in real tears, fearful of not being able to ‘make it’ as a coach anymore, so much has changed in her market, and what used to work, no longer is.
- A high profile coach and prominent good citizen in the community, being sued and pursued by legal woes due to overextension and inability, in the final analysis, to be able to deliver on her promises.
I’ll have more to share and say about this in future issues of the newsletter but suffice to say the grass that looks greener may bear a second look – there is a definitely thinning of the herd occurring.
On that cheery note, I have a simple request. If you sense you are floating in an important moment for your business. That you need something to change soon, or sooner. That there might be a chance you don’t know what to do to get things to ‘better.’
Reach out for help – in whatever form, from whoever – NOW. I truly don’t care how or who from. F’ree, for pay. A friend, mentor, brain trust, whatever. But do it. Please.
Thanks. I needed to get that off my chest. Please feel free to share your comments below.

Seats are now open at the pre-launch pricing, going out to my community only – that’s you – the better to ensure seats are allotted FIRST to the inner circle. Obviously, an event can’t be about thought leadership without standing for something, itself, right? So I invite you take a read, just to see, what you might think – for yourself – about all of this.

And if it’s NOT for you at this time, please do only one thing – reread the above with my blessing – just to digest it for yourself.
Thinking for yourself includes deciding for yourself if you agree with something, want to invest in something, or think something it complete, utter bollocks. Whatever your opinion it is, it’s welcome. Having a strong opinion about something is the start of the spark of all of it.
Three Major Entrepreneurial Shifts in the Markets I Want to Share
December 30, 2009 by Andrea J. Lee
Filed under Beyond..., For Coaches, Online Business
There are three major shifts happening in entrepreneurial markets I want to share with you as we peer over the last page of the calendar into the fresh, new, so-far blank one.
Shift #1: The call for top quality content has begun in earnest.
Markets are increasingly dissatisfied, and more important, UNMOVED, by ‘sameness’ and are NOT BUYING unless there is a compelling, original story being told. That story then needs to be backed up by something they’ve never heard before, even just by 10%, or, the pulses of our clients, they just aren’t quickening.
This shift has already started more than murmuring, with giant content generating moguls like @garyvee @chrisbrogan and so many more, dominating the field.
Thought leadership – having a strong opinion and a voice that expresses it – is no longer a ‘nice to have’, it’s become an essential.
2010 will see the rise of this kind of content in the way that matters most – the transfer of money to your bottom line.
(And well, it should, by the way. If your content doesn’t provide some kind of unique value, again, at least by 10% compared to others, why would someone give you money?)
Shift #2: The drive to create value at higher prices will become much more important.
If you’re investing in creating your best ideas – it will become essential to find high-ticket money models to support selling them.
When your ideas are great – you know, ideas that are WORTH selling, versus ebooks for $7 or $19 or even $49 – you can build a business around them at the higher price points.
If you’re familiar with the Pink Spoon Marketing funnel – Google it if not, it’s freely available on the internet – you’ll know that this is the middle of the funnel, where the price points are high, yet your time is still well leveraged.
Making your business work in this ‘sweet spot’ will become a big focus for forward-thinking business owners. There are about 5 major business models I see working in this way now, but the principles are the same. New models can be created based on those principles. One just needs to grasp hold of those principles.
Shift #3: The notion of taking care of the ‘golden goose’ will find the spotlight.
Who, might you ask, is that golden goose? You guessed it, it’s you.
A goose, a golden one especially, would be well taken care of, wouldn’t it? It would be the best food, lovely shelter, maybe it would even be surrounded by loving people who would pet it and scratch its ears…wait a second, geese don’t have ears!
You take my point though.
It takes more than a virtual assistant to take true, abiding, sustainable care of a business owner who’s holding nothing back, and going for it.
It takes what I’m calling a PERSONAL ECOSYSTEM and done well, it can sustain the money-making POWER that emerges when the two above items are in place.
All three of these things are not rocket science. I’m sure you ‘get’ them all. But putting them together in a way that sheds all the ‘me-too’ habits…
Gets you out of the rut of learning without results…
And does so in a way that not just ALLOWS but REQUIRES you to be an individual, think for yourself, take a stand for something you care about?
This is my biggest wish for all of us for 2010.
It’s not my resolution, it’s my heart’s act of creation, just by stating it here with you.
“The best way to create the future is to predict it.” – Peter Drucker
You can create the above. I know you can and I urge you to. And I will thunderclap for you from the mountain tops through all of 2010 and more, as you do.

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!

Mini-Excerpt From the soon-to-be-released Thomas Leonard’s 21 Coaching Critiques | Master The Craft of Coaching Minute by Minute
“One of the ways to build up that muscle is a tricky one; it’s to decide what you want for that client – it’s different than laying an agenda on your client or pushing your point of view.
For most of my clients, there’s something I really want for them, whatever it’s going to be – peace, clarity, happiness, or success – and they may want it or not want it or not even be ready for it. It doesn’t matter really, but it’s kind of orientation and that guides me not to get diverted. It’s something better to do than just respond or react. There’s something you believe you want for her that she may never get or not get for the next couple of years – is there something that comes to mind?”

The Lone Ranger Syndrome
July 30, 2009 by Andrea J. Lee
Filed under Beyond..., For Coaches, Meaning..., Online Business, Tools & How To
It’s time to stop doing it all…
(An excerpt from Chapter 15 in Money, Meaning and Beyond)
It’s not unusual for either of us to get variations of this question:
“Tina, I want to build my website, set up some Pink Spoons and manage my different streams of income, including online. So how do I become tech-savvy?”
Our response: “Why should you become tech-savvy?”
It’s easy when adding online elements to our business to think that we need to do it all ourselves, which simply isn’t true…
As a small business owner, isn’t your time better spent elsewhere, such as delivering value to your clients or building your business? When your time is limited, doesn’t it make sense to work on the stuff that only you can do in your business?
It’s a pet peeve of ours to see people waste their time and effort learning skills that are a poor match to their talents, they don’t enjoy, and in many cases don’t benefit their business!
So why is this so common? Most people think they can’t afford to hire help for themselves and their business, especially in the early days when cash flow may be tight. And so they resign themselves to either:
- Doing everything themselves and letting their business suffer, OR
- Under-utilizing the help that they do have, thus hampering their growth.
On behalf of your sanity and the growth of your business, hire some help sooner rather than later.
One of the best resources for support available these days is to hire a Virtual Assistant. Also known as a VA, these skilled professionals are able to help with anything from general administrative tasks, customer service, technical projects, marketing initiatives and more. The word Virtual simply refers to the fact that they work from their location, not yours, and that may mean they’re up to half way around the globe.
Because VAs usually work as contractors, you can hire them for as much or as little work as you need, be it just a few hours each week or up to full time hours as your business grows. Since VAs work from home and have their own equipment, you save the cost of hiring and housing a fulltime local assistant.
But won’t a VA – or any other kind of help for that matter – cost money? Money that you may not feel you can spare just now? The answer is yes, however there is one key point about turning a VA from a business liability, into a true asset.
Think of them as a Profit Center.
Instead of an expense, like stationary, office furniture, or your internet connection, a Virtual Assistant can be a profit center.
Most people don’t think about ‘getting help’ this way, so it’s to your benefit if you do. By focusing your VA on profit generating tasks, you leverage yourself, add capacity to your business and in fact, alleviate the pressure on you to be the only ‘bread winner’ in the business – a very common situation if you’re working solo.
Although it seems simple on the outside, this one mind-set shift will differentiate you from other business owners if you go ahead and implement it.
Ask, “How Can My Virtual Assistant Be a Profit Center In My Company?’
This mindset-shift is one of the main reasons why we have been able to help build our client companies so quickly from six figures to seven. Think about it. Being able to add capacity in a way that makes it possible for you to do much more work, more quickly, is a pretty neat thing. Not to mention bringing in more money!
Let’s talk a bit more about what these profit-generating tasks might be. First, the best VAs are NOT just glorified secretaries.

- Fear – that my vision of extended, expanded reach into multiple niche markets will fall on its face.
So it’s with the powerful combination of joy and relief that I announce the first print title produced in Thomas Leonard’s name since his death 6 years ago. Pictured here in its 2-paperback-volume, 2-CD glory:

Initial feedback from members of the Thomas Leonard Success
Strategies program (to whom all 6 print projects ship automatically) has been swift and kind:
“Thank you for

”Great quality,
great value pricing, great, great job!”
