Attraction Marketing – How to Get More of the Clients You Really Want – There are specific simple things you can do to cause more business to come to you instead of you having to chase after it. But it’s not easy and you have to be consistent. The payoff is huge. Who are you and how are you currently marketing your business? What’s working? Who do you think your ideal client is? Do you know who you don’t want to work with? These are just of the questions we will discuss in this interactive, fun and powerful talk about how to attract what you really want in your business. This 30-45 minute talk is ideal for sales groups, business organizations and networking groups.
Create a Better Business Card – Most of us take our business cards for granted and don’t think twice about what we put on them. We hand them out haphazardly without any real understanding of their value or without giving thought to the potential for a bigger return on our investment. In this 30 minute talk, Minette will share a few key tips to create a business card that will get your more business and become a key part of your marketing plan. One of the keys to successful marketing is educating people about how to do business with you. Use your business card to accomplish that; make it very clear what the next step is that they need to take. A business card is an underused and powerful tool. Let me help you create a better one! This is a great talk for networking groups, business groups, Rotary clubs or other business-focused groups.
What on Earth is Style-Shifting? How to Interact and Connect with the People who Matter – This is an informative, humorous and educational talk based on understanding personality styles, which influence how people interact and react to other people, tasks, stress and the environment. Once you can identify your own style, you can learn to style-shift in order to communicate more effectively with people who are very different from you. When you learn to talk to people in a way that is meaningful to them, you build trust and credibility and they are more likely to do business with you. Personal style and credibility are valuable tools to use whether you are an entrepreneur, business owner, sales manager, spouse or mom. In this interactive seminar, Minette will define credibility, give examples of who has it and who doesn’t and show attendees how to improve their credibility in the eyes of others.
The Power of Commitment: 10 Steps To Successfully Reaching Your Goals – How often have you met someone who says “I am trying to lose weight,” while standing in line at McDonald’s ordering a cheeseburger and fries with their Diet Coke? Commitment is so much more than merely deciding or trying to reach a goal or improve your life. Commitment is making a binding promise to yourself or others and doing whatever it takes to achieve your goal. Sometimes there are long gaps between deciding to do something and then formally committing to doing it. People tend to cavalierly toss the word commitment around, but when questioned closely they are simply talking about an idea, they are not taking inspired action towards change. Trying is an excuse, it distances people from the truth, fear of pain and challenges that often come with committing to real change and long term progress. Before you can fly high, you must dig deep to discover the truth behind why you want to change, why you want to reach a goal and what is holding you back.
Heart-Centered Parenting: How to Connect to Your Children By Listening to Their Feelings – This talk emphasizes the ways in which we shut down our children’s feelings without even realizing it, how to learn to listen more constructively and build the foundations of a relationship that will last a lifetime. From the time our children are born, we can help them understand how to express their feelings in ways that are appropriate. By creating a loving, safe environment for our children, they will learn to thrive as independent, happy children in any setting.
