Introducing the Freedom Era: The Must-Attend Event for Industry Experts and Consultants
Episode 615: Show Notes
If you follow us on social media you may be aware that we have just announced our first virtual conference! While the conference will no doubt share some similarities with our online summits, we anticipate that previous attendees will be shocked by how incredibly different this experience truly is. One of the developments that we are most excited about is the fact the entire event will be live, giving us the scope to connect with attendees in real-time! We are also deeply aware that our participants are incredibly busy which is why we’re so proud that the entire conference will take place over the course of one day within four sessions!
We’re tremendously excited about the impact of this live event and the opportunity to foster a sense of community amongst industry experts, consultants, and CEOs! Head over to bossproject.com/conference to sign up!
The Freedom Conference and Why You Need to Be There
Our upcoming conference is called the Freedom Era and our goal is to help you reignite your creative consulting business before burnout defines you. You can grab your virtual ticket at bossproject.com/conference for a total of $47. We are so stoked to be doing this live because it gives us the opportunity to really dive in with other people who are service providers, creative consultants, and industry experts, and create a uniquely rich opportunity for us to learn from one another. So if you want to become part of a community of experts and conquer burnout, be sure to join us on Tuesday 29 March!
While purchasing a ticket will give you access to the conference sessions for up to a week, we highly encourage participants to attend the live event. The conversations and sessions during our live event will be shaped by what organically comes up in our chat, so you won’t want to miss the opportunity to connect with an incredible community and raise the issues that are most pertinent to you!
Your Unique Client Goals
We’ve been hearing tons of chatter about the need for businesses to go out and find new people and do lead generation. However, this approach ignores an entire realm of possibilities. When you attend our live event you're going to have the opportunity to hear from one of our clients, Bonnie, about how she increased her client contracts by $60,000 in six weeks WITHOUT new leads. We are so excited for all of you to hear her perspective on what it looks like to have real conversations with existing clients, especially when you're underpricing yourself. Our goal is for you to learn how you can confidently go into these conversations and ultimately renegotiate. And if you’re feeling apprehensive, or wondering how this is possible, then it’s probably time for you to grab your ticket, because we're going to be taking a deep dive into the details of what it looks like to set yourself up for success!
Pricing Strategies and Why One Size Does Not Fit All
When it comes to pricing, we do not believe in the one size fits all approach, because it’s not effective. It doesn't take into account your current clientele, your region, your unique circumstances, any of that. As a result, we have a very unique approach to pricing. Rather than being emotionally driven, it is extremely tactical, strategic, calculated, and purposeful. One of our panels will consist of a handful of our clients who will be talking about how their pricing strategies vary. Because businesses come in a range of sizes and expertise, whether it’s consulting or service-based, we want you to find what works for you, even if you don’t know what that looks like for you yet!
The Seven Red Flags of Toxic Behavior in Your Small Business
If you’re a fan of the type of polarizing and expansive conversations we have here on the show, then you’ll definitely want to prioritize attending the live version of our final session! We’re going to be covering the seven red flags of toxic behaviors happening inside your small business that needs your immediate attention. It may be difficult to recognize or acknowledge, but we are here to let you know that it is okay and help you address anything toxic that may be taking place in your business. We’re going to discuss what it looks like to rectify some of these issues so that you can create a psychologically safe place to work. This is an opportunity to address core issues and build a business that's in alignment with your personal values, where people are treated fairly and experience an environment free of discrimination.
It’s Up to You as a CEO to Change Your Business
Taking time out of your busy schedule to be intentional about making changes in your business is the most crucial use of your time as a CEO, and we are extremely proud of all of you for recognizing that a shift and a change needs to happen! And we want to remind you that you don’t need to know exactly what that looks like for you to know that you need it! Our clients are incredibly smart, competent, and total experts in what they do, but that doesn’t mean they need to be an expert at everything. And yet so many of them are frustrated with themselves because they haven't quite figured out the business side of things. After all, you've been using their time and energy showing up as an industry expert. And that's what they’re good at. That's their zone of genius. They don't have to know all of these other things. But what they do need to know, and make the decision on, is choosing to learn from people who can help them figure it out, avoid burnout, and thrive!
