Marketing Professional Services - Book Yourself Solid

Michael Port, author of one of my favourite books "Book Yourself Solid" has announced that he is starting his next intensive small business coaching program based on the book on January 20th.

Well worth taking a good look at this program if you market professional services and it is a chance to be coached by Michael Port himself in group sessions.

Michael Port Book Yourself Solid Business Coaching Program

There are some early bird discounts but you may prefer to buy the book first and then decide that you want or need coaching support.

Because of Michael's latest books and the development of his certified Book Yourself Solid Coaching program, he only did one of these courses in 2008 and it might be the same in 2009.

Of course if you are in the UK, you may want to try out my Guerrilla Marketing one to one coaching program instead. It works well for professional service providers or even take some of the relevant modules in my Hidden Profit Coaching.  

The Think Big Revolution

I received an email from top author and business coach Michael Port yesterday announcing his new membership community "The Think Big Revolution".

The Think Big Revolution has been a series of teleseminars that Michael Port has held on Mondays but the idea has been expanded into a community. It is free to join and Michael says that it always will be.

At the moment I don't know where this journey will take me but I decided to join Michael Port on the ride.

Michael Port The Contrarian Effect

Some months ago I received a pre-release copy of "The Contrarian Effect: Why It Pays (Big) To Take Typical Sales Advice And Do The Opposite" by Michael Port and Elizabeth Marshall.

I started reading it and found myself nodding along in agreement but then I got distracted and as publication day wasn't for a couple of months I put it to one side.

I didn't think much more about it except when the launch date came...and went. Then I started to feel guilty. Michael had been good enough to let me see an early copy and I hadn't done my bit.

So The Contrarian Effect was guiltily added back to my list of things to do.

Then I received an excited email from Michael yesterday.

Book Yourself Solid Coaching with Michael Port

One of the "gurus" who have impressed me the most in 2008 is Michael Port and he has just announced the launch date for his Book Yourself Solid coaching program.

The Book Yourself Solid Coaching Program

It's 15 Weeks of Intensive Small Business Coaching that will change your marketing strategy forever.

Michael Port Your Marketing Tagline

If you are having difficulty finding your own marketing tagline, then take a look at this short video from Michael Port, the guy to call when you're tired of thinking small.

Michael explains that your marketing tagline is about what you stand for and why you do the work that you do. It is authentic to you so that you are seen as credible.

The right tagline will resonate with the people you are meant to serve. It doesn't have to attract everybody - just the people who are naturally attracted to you and what you offer.

This is another video based on Michael Port's excellent book "Book Yourself Solid" and you can see what Michael has to say about elevator speeches.

Cure Your Public Speaking Fears

Last week I admitted that I was a victim of a self limiting belief.

I love small group training sessions but the thought of speaking in public to a large group sends a shudder down my spine and makes me back-track rapidly.

Unfortunately this is starting to hold me back as I have ducked and dived under a few recent opportunities as I become more established.
