~~~ Dear Coach, Speaker, Author, Solo-Entrepreneur … Do you know the #1 problem facing people in our field? It’s having great ideas, a burning mission and thousands of hours of preparation and hundreds of hours of training on hand. It’s knowing that you can change people’s lives and set the world on fire. But…nobody cares. Mainly because nobody knows who you are. And that’s because your current marketing plan is not working the way it should. The way you market yourself will ultimately determine whether you get clients or not. Your marketing strategy is key to whether people will see you (visibility) and find you trustworthy (credibility). The perception of your Visibility and Credibility are key criteria people use when determining whether to do business with you. Marketing has changed over the years. In fact, over the past 5 years, it’s changed more than in the previous 20. How well you adapt to the changes can have a huge impact on the reception that you and your business get in the marketplace. If you’re not including a new mix or if your message is fuzzy, generic and white-washed, then your prospects … and important media connections … will never find you. ~~~ |

And that is the biggest reason why 1/3 of small businesses fail in the first 2 years and less than 1/2 make it to their 5th year. Their online presence … their marketing strategy … simply isn’t packaged to ‘make the sale’.
Yet, when done right your marketing mix will get people to call you and help you develop a large, eager pack of clients, readers, and fans.
“I’m excited about taking these next steps in building my marketing…”Deidre helped me see the light. I was initially resistant to entering into social media marketing, but Deidre helped me hop on the bus – and I’m having a great time! I’ve developed a social media strategy and understand the medium’s worth and necessity. I’m excited about taking these next steps in building my marketing. Deidre’s presentation style is comfortable, highly informative, natural and she really spent time in answering my individual questions. She’ll help you too! Cynthia Zava |
With The Outrageous Advantage™ BONFIRE, we help coaches, speakers, authors, artists, and solo entrepreneurs create a comprehensive marketing strategy that works.
How Powerful Is Your Strategy?
Do you even have one?
Stop for a minute and think about some of the leaders in your field — is it in teaching people how to work at home, like Carrie Wilkerson (’The Barefoot Executive’) or Denise Wakeman (’The Blog Squad’)? Are you a chef, like Chef Todd Mohr (’Cooking Coarse’)? Or a speaker like Peter Shankman (’HARO’)?
They’ve got plenty of brand, a great message and they’re strategically using it in a lot of different places!
If you have a brand, are you using it in all of your marketing? Is your marketing platform as robust as it needs to be? Are you using social media in your marketing mix yet? Or are you sticking with the same marketing plan you’ve always had — even though there are new tools available to spread your message further and faster than ever before?
The One BIG Reason So Many Start-Ups,
Solo Entrepreneurs, Authors and Speakers
Crash and Burn in Their Business…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You cannot … repeat, CANNOT … expect to build a presence, have people come to you and attract media without a clear message and a rockin’ marketing strategy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not to be blunt, but that’s reality.
The only reason so many businesses don’t make it is that they get lost in the shuffle. They disappear. They don’t stand out … all because they have no niche, no focus, a watered down message and pitiful marketing. Not only that – they’re missing a critical component – being where people are talking and gathering information…social media sites.
So you need a strategy. And not just an OK one … you need a GREAT ONE! And if you already have a marketing strategy and it’s not working for you — you need a better one. And that is what you will get from this unique offering.
Helping you create a comprehensive marketing strategy that works for you defines what we do best.
“She always does a fantastic job in delivering objectives…”Olalah always provides her client with 100% attention. She actively listens to their needs, researches the industry and pays attention to the culture of the organization and the messaging sent. She provides excellent ideas and is extremely respectful of her clients. I have worked with Olalah on several occasions and she always does a fantastic job in delivering objectives, as well as, providing valuable marketing insight. She is a fantastic marketing consultant that I would highly recommend! Heidi Dent |
Fortunately, this is just the kind of help we provide. Using traditional marketing techniques combined with over 20 years of marketing and promotion experience, over 10 years of online experience, and active listening, we will help you build a red hot presence online and offline. You will get a comprehensive strategy that builds visibility and credibility in an instant – and keeps on building it for you for years to come. So yeah … your clients really can start calling you … but only if your message is clear and in the right places.
What If You Don’t Have a Great Message …
or Don’t Have a BonaFide Marketing Plan to Begin With?
You may have been doing well in your business for years and the current economy has affected your business. Perhaps your business has been moving along on a wing and a prayer – and you haven’t spent the time to put an effective marketing plan together.
Or perhaps you’ve been using the same old message for a long time – and it no longer reflects what you’re currently doing in your business.
Perhaps you’re ready to graduate to a new, more commanding message.
Perhaps you’re ready to skyrocket your business with a powerful and revolutionary marketing plan.
That’s why we give you specific, hands-on techniques, tools and guidance so you can build your authentic message and marketing strategy. Think reinforcement exercises. Think feedback forums. Think group Q&A sessions. Think accountability tools. Think one-on-one coaching.
We’ll teach you not only how to build a message and marketing plan for this business … but for ANY business that you ever have for the rest of your life.
You’ll know how to do it again and again, as needed, forever.
But let’s back up a little, first. Take a moment to honestly assess how you’re marketing yourself…

“Do You Go To Your Plumber for a Facial?”
~~~
Huh?
Of course not!
Not only would you not hire your plumber for a facial, you wouldn’t ask the lady at the spa to come fix your plumbing. Why? Because they’re specialists in their own fields, not each other’s. So why should you, an expert in your field, know everything there is to know about how to market yourself?
Have you heard? The success of your marketing strategy is directly proportional to the amount of money you make in your business. In fact, marketing is so important, studies have proven that successful businesses put at least 40% of their administrative time into marketing their business. How many hours in a week do you spend?
Or are you someone (like many people) that squeezes marketing into their week if you think about it during the course of your packed days?
You don’t have to do it alone!
This Is YOUR Outrageous Advantage™
There are plenty of places that you can go to for assistance with your marketing strategy. Goodness knows that there is a whole boatload of people that would love to teach you about social media…they’re popping up everywhere! Yet, it’s difficult to find both in one place with the guidance and support that’s needed to help you get results.
That’s exactly why Olalah and I have gotten together and worked diligently on a small group program that will guide you in this process. Because you shouldn’t have to do it alone…you shouldn’t have to determine your message, decide where to send your message and put the correct marketing pieces together all by yourself.
That’s what The Outrageous Advantage™ BONFIRE was developed for…to guide you in a step-by-step process along an elusive, sometimes slippery but critical process of constructing a message and comprehensive marketing strategy for your business. Instead of struggling to figure it out yourself and potentially making costly financial mistakes along the way, Olalah and myself will guide you through the process along with a great group of other like-minded individuals.
Isn’t that a much more fun way to design a strategy?
