This Simple Title Shift Can Drastically Increase Your Average Client Value
It’s a no-brainer that if you really pay attention to the language and messaging you use, you start to attract your ideal clients. As a niche service provider, you know that you have the power to change lives and businesses with your service.
But one of the most important pieces of messaging that, with a simple shift, could change how you feel, your lead generation, conversions, pricing, and how you show up as an expert is what you call yourself.

Instead, what if you called yourself a “consultant” (whether that’s a marketing consultant, operations consultant, or [insert industry type] consultant)?
Introducing the Freedom Era: How to Reignite Your High Level Service Based Business Before Burnout Defines You
Do you know how to actually prioritize life-first, work less, enjoy your personal time more, develop hobbies, not be so consumed by work, all the while making good moolah? The answer is probably not, even though literally every business owner ever aims to accomplish all of this.

So, after trial and error, hunkered down in isolation, we realized we’d unlocked something that thousands of other service-based business owners and consultants have been searching for. Now, we’re bringing in a new era of business, and we want you to be a part of it.
Welcome to The Freedom Era: Reignite Your Business Before Burnout Defines You. We’re hosting this 1-day event on March 29, 2022, and you’re invited to grab your ticket right now for just $47.
