HIRE MICHELLE. RIGHT THIS SECOND.  

 
Is she really as good as everyone says she is??  
 
That’s was the only hesitation I had when hiring Michelle.
 
Spoiler alert: SHE IS THAT GOOD.
 
When I hired Michelle I was working on transitioning from a full-time job + consulting into consulting full-time, and also pivoting into offering retainer-style services instead of project-based ones, and really struggling to try to figure out how to structure/sell/position those services. 
 
It was so freeing to be able to off-load the strategy that I was struggling with to Michelle, and she came back with an ACTIONABLE plan. 
 
My favorite part was that she actually helped me figure out what to prioritize and what I could ignore. 
 
Even better, when I started executing that plan, I saw results almost immediately. 
 
Where before I'd struggled to close one or two deals every few months, after I implemented the plan Michelle developed, I immediately closed 3 deals. 
 
We're about halfway through the year and I've already doubled my income from last year, and that pace is still accelerating and I can directly trace that back to the work I did with Michelle.
 
That’s because after working with her:
 
  1. I know what I'm supposed to do (and what I can ignore) which allows me to be super-focused on things that are going to actually move the needle forward and accomplish my goals (instead of shiny things that don't matter and will just distract me)
  2. I'm SUPER clear on what I offer, where it should be priced at, and what my boundaries should be. 
  3. I started outsourcing some of the pieces that I can get off my plate - so instead of waiting on me to have time to do something (which never seems to happen), growth is happening in my business while I'm focused on delivering client work. This is the core piece that has really allowed me to see exponential growth. 

Hire Michelle. Right this second. She's a genius with helping you get laser-focused on what will actually drive revenue, profits, and results.

MY MONTHLY MENTORSHIP, WHICH HAD PREVIOUSLY TOPPED OUT AT 8 WRITERS AT $19,200 REVENUE, IS NOW SOLD OUT AT 20 WRITERS AND $60,000 REVENUE.

 

I started working with Michelle because I'd hit a financial ceiling around $50k annual revenue for part-time work running my business mentoring other writers. 
 
My most popular program couldn't scale, and while I cared deeply for the clients I worked with and believed in the value of what I offered, my own interests and needs as a writer and teacher had changed. I felt trapped and worried if I made the "wrong" move I'd lose it all, but if I didn't do anything, I'd stop loving my work (and my life).
 
Enter Michelle. 
 
Three months later my Monthly Mentorship, which had previously topped out at 8 writers at $19,200 revenue, is now sold out at 20 writers and $60,000 revenue.
 
All for the same amount of hours worked per month (assuming I can make good on my intentions and the model--which I believe I can).
 
It wasn’t all easy—I went in to our engagement concerned that whatever we did would create MORE WORK for me, even if it made the numbers look better and even if the "more" was only temporary. 
 
And while it did prove true that I worked more for two months during our consults, I have worked less—consistently—in the three months following those consults than I have in years. And I'm healthy and balanced as I head into the new iteration of my core offering.
 
Michelle asked me hard questions and wasn’t afraid to drop an idea that seemed perfect through one lens, only to turn it on its head to see what we could learn by considering a radically different—yet wholly in line—alternative approach.

THE SMALL STEPS I AM TAKING EACH DAY, THAT WERE PART OF MY GROWTH BLUEPRINT, ARE ADDING UP IN A WAY THAT INITIALLY PUT ME INTO A STATE OF SHOCK.  

Michelle Warner is a true force when it comes to designing small and sustainable businesses.

I felt like I was at a fork in the road of throwing in the towel of a business I wholeheartedly believed in and stepping up to the challenge of finding a strategy, structure, and action plan that could support where I wanted to go as a business owner.

I chose the latter and knew Michelle was the only one who could get me through to the other side. And she did!

During our work together we discovered a few things I suspected - that I had misaligned pricing for the current state of my sales cycle and my positioning was off. 

There were also a few surprises (but then duh's after the fact) - we discovered that while I was passionate about my work and how I help people, I wasn't expressing that passion in a way that could help people understand my point of view. e.g. making declarative statements without a "because" and a "why".

I wasn't using my own tools and techniques of storytelling to TAKE A STAND. I was just sharing fun, light, things with no point and doing a lot of grumbling behind the scenes. I also had a network that wasn't intentional and had a lot of the wrong people in it.

Now I’m making decisions and taking action from a place of true leadership and ownership. The small steps I am taking each day, that were part of my Growth Blueprint, are adding up in a way that initially put me into a state of shock. I trusted Michelle that it would work, but I do not think I trusted myself. Now I do and now I see a path to intentional acceleration and growth in my business.

 

HILLARY REA, TELL ME A STORY

I TRUST HER IMPLICITLY, AND SO SHOULD YOU. 

 

 
Michelle Warner is a GEM. In a sea of online business coaches, Michelle stands out as someone with vast knowledge of not just online business, but business itself.
 
Armed with an MBA, Michelle provides expert market analysis, research into current trends in your field, and a business plan to help you grow your business that is unique to your industry and expertise.
 
There is no cookie-cutter methodology here. 
 
If you’ve tried all the “proven” 6-figure coaches and their techniques don’t seem to work for you, there’s a reason for that.
 
Most business coaches out there understand online business, but Michelle makes it her business to understand your business, and provides you a customized roadmap based on her complex analysis of your industry, along with your personal goals.
 
Since working with Michelle I’ve booked a new client every month at my full rate, and, per her roadmap, am set to raise my rates this month.
 
I can’t say enough about working with Michelle. She gave me ideas I’d never considered, and told me why the things I’d been trying weren’t working. 
 
I trust her implicitly, and so should you.
