621: Moving Beyond Selling a Package of Hours

Have you noticed that the longer you do the same type of work, the more efficient you get? That is why charging hourly or selling a package of hours starts to feel less great over time. We teach our clients to create either a monthly or a high ticket project business model based on the deliverables not based on the number of hours it takes This works especially well for consultants, marketers and financial professionals. Elizabeth joins me in this episode and we discuss the four stages of the Retainer Roadmap and how you can specialize your services and uplevel your clients. We will share common concerns as well as examples of how the Retainer Roadmap will help you scale your business to offer a package of value instead of a package of hours.    🗺️ Purchase our on-demand workshop The Retainer Roadmap https://bizchix.com/retainer   Ready to get my brain/experience/network into your biz? 👇There are 3 options: ​Six Figures Lab Group Coaching https://bizchix.com/sixfigureslab - open to consultants, marketers and financial professionals averaging $3K to $10K/month in sales (accepting applications NOW) ​1:1 Coaching https://bizchix.com/coaching - apply so we can see if we are a fit to work together ​CEOCHIX Mastermind Program https://bizchix.com/ceochix - open to consultants, marketers and financial professionals averaging $10K to $70K/month in sales (new semesters start in August and January)

607: Boundaries with Clients

Holding boundaries with clients is tricky, especially if you already struggle with boundaries in your personal life. Setting boundaries early on with clients sets a clear expectation and prevents you from feeling resentment or disliking your business.  And even if you have never set boundaries, or let a few slide, it is NEVER too late to renegotiate your client relationships. Join Elizabeth Cook and me as we discuss how boundaries can help protect and preserve your client relationships. What I love about this inner work, is that when you improve how you handle boundaries in your business relationships, you get confidence to do the same in your personal relationships and vice versa! This is one area I especially love to coach clients through. Having a mentor that encourages you to hold boundaries with your clients, team and others can give you the confidence you need to move through uncomfortable situations.   THERE ARE NOW 3 WAYS WE CAN WORK TOGETHER: ​1:1 COACHING https://bizchix.com/coaching (🌟new) - open to any level and type of business  ​SIX FIGURES LAB GROUP COACHING https://bizchix.com/sixfigureslab - open to consultants, marketers and financial professionals averaging $3K to $10K/month ​​ https://bizchix.com/ceochix​CEOCHIX MASTERMIND PROGRAM https://bizchix.com/ceochix - open to consultants, marketers and financial professionals averaging $10K to $70K/month   ⭐️ Connect with Natalie on LinkedIn

592: How to Trust a Coach Again (after you have been burned)

The hardest thing to rebuild is trust.  For many clients, I am not the first coach they’ve had.  And more often than I’d like, I’ve heard other coaches and programs described as, “feeling like a waste of money,” or that the program was, “too big and you never got time with the lead coach.”    They have lost trust in the coaching community–and rightfully so.  Thankfully, not all coaches are the same.  Today, Elizabeth Cook, my co-coach in $ix Figures Lab, joins me as we talk about what to look for in a coaching program, the questions you should ask when looking at a new program, and how our $ix Figures Lab program differs from most other programs on the market.      💰 Applications are open for Six Figures Lab.
