Leading an Organization of One
How to run your very small business
without it running you!
Dear
Professional,
It happened again. Another person bought into the
"professionals don't market" myth.
Tuesday morning, I received two emails. Two very different
endings to the same story.
Sam's message was, "I'm dropping out of our professional
association."
He'd come to believe he just didn't have what it takes to be
successful in a solo practice. He said things like,
"I develop new services and new products, but no one buys
them. I was doing okay during the boom times, but with this
economy, I'm just not making it. People like me shouldn't
have to market, my skills should stand on their own. If I
were really good, clients would just come. Marketing is too
much like bragging. . .it makes me feel dirty to solicit for
clients. I'm a professional. . .not a marketer."
Now he's neither. . .
And he's not the only loser. His clients and colleagues are
losing also, because Sam is an awesome professional. His
skills could dance circles around most of his
colleagues.
What a difference in the email from "Lisa."
Lisa was a stay at home mom who had been building her
part-time business into into a viable career. She was
bubbling over.
Her new product site was up! "Click here! Tell me what you
think. Buy my products, they're great! Sign up for my
e-zine. . . you'll wonder how you got along without it!!!
I'll see you next month: I'm headlining the association
workshop!"
Lisa was building her business, while Sam was closing his.
What made the difference?
Like so many professionals, Sam couldn't find a way of
combining who he was as a professional with who he could be
as a business person. Lisa knew how to strategize,
organize, and implement systems for running a one-person
business.
And now you
can too.
Thanks to a new resource I developed based on the experience
of Sam and Lisa, and hundreds like them. It's called
Leading an Organization of
One. It's specifically designed for
entrepreneurs and small business owners like you, who need
to expand your view of who you are as a professional and
develop a business structure to support and extend your
awesome skills. . . so you too can bring your skills and
talents to the very people and organizations who will most
benefit from what you do and who you are.
All
while you're serving more clients, making more money, and
experiencing much more professional
satisfaction.
Leading an Organization of
One changes your mind and your behavior so you
will:
-
Develop a focus and strategic vision for
your business based on your skills, talents, and
passions. . .a focus consistent with where you are in
your life, your relationships, your age, and your plans
for your future;
-
Help
you find the right mix of services and products
consistent with your skills and experiences;
-
Uncover the profitability of each of your
services so you can make informed decisions about new
business development efforts;
-
Get
past your reluctance to "market and sell myself" with
business development systems congruent with your
professional image and stature;
-
Never
make another cold call again (unless you really love
them!);
-
Bring
your services to the very people who most want and need
what you offer;
-
Find
clients who will pay what your services are worth;
-
Provide better quality service while
being compensated fairly for what you do;
-
Achieve financial rewards appropriate to
your training and experience, and let's face it, the
significant impact you have;
-
Spend
significantly less time with the administrivia of running
a one person business while getting significantly better
results from your efforts;
-
Implement business systems to monitor
your progress against your targeted goals, giving you
early warning signals to correct for unforeseen incidents
and opportunities;
-
Plan
time for professional and personal development and
renewal; and,
-
Decrease the amount of time you spend
working at your business, while making more money and
having more time for your family, personal interests,
hobbies, and just plain fun!
Leading an Organization of
One is a learning system that is designed to
change your mind and change your behavior. It includes:
-
The
unique One Page Business Tools system. You'll be able to
take your whole business "on the road" with you, where
ever you go, in a simple pocket folder, on your lap-top,
or in your PDA.
-
The
forms and templates for developing the core One-Page
Business Tools. . .in both print and electronic forms,
ready for your immediate use.
-
Specific lessons and exercises to shift
your mind set from a professional who hopes and waits for
work to an entrepreneurial professional who attracts lots
clients who benefit from your services and are willing to
pay.
-
A
complete reference learning system:
-
Four audio CD's to listen to in your
car, and while at your desk;
-
A
complete 100+ page manual, with examples, case
studies, formulas and forms to adopt and adapt;
-
Downloadable files with templates,
forms and files ready to use; you won't have to enter
formulas into spreadsheets, build financial files or
design templates. These forms and templates are
updated as new info becomes available; and,
-
A
web site to keep your information updated and to
provide you with an ever expanding set of
resources.
The
truth about most learning programs:
If you're like most people who buy learning programs as a
solution to your challenges, you'll start working the
program with a rush, and then begin to fade.
A client emergency comes up.
You land a big contract and "don't have time" for all that
running the business stuff. . . you're too busy making
money.
The dog eats your homework.
It's a common pattern, one I've seen lots. (And struggled
with myself at times!)
Any learning program this complete is too big to do all at
once.
We all implement great ideas, techniques and tools programs
of this size little by little.
We all need ongoing support to fully realize the potency of
this kind of learning program.
That's why I developed:
The
Secret Weapon:
Included with your Leading an
Organization of One program will be the
Quick Start Implementation
System (QSIS) to help you take the plunge
and start using your new business tools.
During the next six months, you'll receive spaced, specific
lessons, tools and resources about what to do next, as you
shift your business practices to this new routine.
The self paced QSIS will:
-
keep
you from being overwhelmed;
-
start
shifting your mind set to a more
professional/entrepreneurial perspective; and,
-
prevent your getting stuck at "now what"
decision points.
You'll start benefiting from your new tools right away, even
before they're all up and running.
You'll develop the thinking and activity habits that will
ensure your success as you adopt a new way of leading your
own organization of one.
QSIS will flesh out the materials
in the Leading an Organization of
One learning system and extend the usefulness
of the tools even further.
Now, here's the deal. Over the years, I've worked with lots
of professionals, getting their businesses up and running,
or back on track.
The investment for this consulting can quickly add up into
five or even six figures.
And, my clients will assure you it is worth every penny.
But, thanks to the miracles of modern technology, and your
willingness to learn online, you can get the whole program,
manual, audio CD's, online templates and files, and the
Quick Start Implementation
System, for only $297.
Do
these models work?
You bet. These are the tools I used to restart my business.
. .to be self supporting within three months, and then
double my income the second year and again in the third
year. In the fourth year. . .I quadrupled it.
And it's worked for others too.
See what other, one-person business owners just like you
have said:
Media
Personality Dian Thomas comments, ". . . I fell in
love with the simple methods and techniques Pat developed to
help run and manage my business. She takes the complicated
and insurmountable and puts it on one-pagers. . .which
support me and my dreams. I whole heartedly recommend Pat
and her simple, effective, and efficient Leading an
Organization of One."
Therapist
Sabrina Braham reports, "Starting with the first lesson in
your program, I was getting the answers I needed. I am going
to recommend this program to anyone who would like to
improve the way they operate their one-person business."
TechTamers
Guru, Dr. Jeanette Cates says, "Great resource! I
started immediately to apply your ideas. . .and thanks to
the Quick Start, I stayed on track!"
Self
development guru Randy Gage says, "Packed with money-making
information for entrepreneurs."
Guarantee:
You are probably wondering, will this program work for me?
Will it help me dig out from the mess on my desk and the
frustrations I have with running my one-person business?
I have to answer. . .it has for other people.
Whether or not it will work for you is up to you.
I can't guarantee your business will flourish like magic
just by buying Leading an Organization of
One. Any new learning program is only as good
as the time and attention you put into implementing it. If
you don't do the work on your business, you won't get the
results you want.
But I do know that you will get more than the price of the
whole program by implementing just one of the new ideas and
tools you will get.
Get started

One. Take advantage of holiday lull to get
started taking charge of your one-person business. Be ready

p.s.
During this introductory period, and since we all need all
the help we can get during these challenging times, and I
feel so strongly that Leading a Organization of
One will make the difference for you and your
business, not just in the coming year, but for years to
come, if you order now, I'll include the following valuable
bonuses:
Bonus

Yourself as THE Expert in Your Field, Your Niche in Less
than 18 Months. No frills here...just solid specific steps
you can take that will jump start your campaign so that your
prospects will think of you first when they need and want
what you offer. Now if I developed a specific plan just for
you, it would cost more than $5,000. And if I added 18
months of coaching to ensure you followed all of the steps,
you could add another $45,000. But if you can use a template
and adapt it to your business, then this special report will
be worth a lot more than $50,000 to you.
Bonus
#2: Get More Business Just by
Speaking This is a dynamite audio program by Mark S.A. Smith, a consummate marketer. In this program you'll

for my consulting services.
Mark will teach you step by step how to write the speech,
find audiences who need you, easily book the speech, and
most importantly, how to get business from audience members.
Plus, you'll have a complete written guide to follow as he
packs all the details into his presentation.
So click here to order now. . .every
minute you hesitate is costing you money and effort.
Isn't it time to start running your own very small business
rather than letting it run you?
