It’s ready, it’s here, and I’m excited to release my brand new site on multiple income streams for life and business coaches, consultants, authors, speakers, and service professionals!

This site has been 6 months in the making – no, not the design or the content or writing the free guide. All of these were put together in less than a week! What took the longest was thinking about how to communicate my ideas in the most compelling and way. There’s so much noise about information marketing, I wanted to keep it very focused and demystify what it truly takes not to just create an info product after info product, but a sustainable profitable multiple income streams business.

Milana-logo-LOW-res-web1. I first started with having a logo designed – this is the first time I invested some serious money into researching, conceptualizing, and designing a graphic to capture my brand. I took a course on branding and as a result was able to communicate to the graphic design company exactly what I want. This one actually allowed me to select a design from multiple designers!

3916008-original2. I then hired the same company to create the web site look for the home page and the blog. I wanted the home page to look exciting, inviting, and different from the rest of the site. The blog needed to be simple and clean. You can see the difference. Once the look was designed, I had to hire a blog developer to turn it into an actual blog, not just a graphic.

3. The rest of the site was created on a Wordpress blog platform to make it easy for me to create and maintain all the pages without programming or coding of any kind. You can see that I decided to deviate from original colors as it started to look way too pink for me and for my male fan base :)

What do you think?

Are you ready to turn your passion, topic, or experience into a highly profitable multiple-income-stream information business?

Then I invite you to check out my brand new web site Milana.com, where I offer free tips, articles, and videos about turning what you know into a series of lifetime income streams! Plus, grab a copy of my FREE 25-page guide, “7 Secrets to Creating a Profitable Multiple-Income-Streams Business!”.

rollercoasterWant to get on a roller coaster of success?

If you’re relatively new to coaching, you probably realize how time-consuming and labor intensive it can be to get your name and message “out there.”  Coaching has become increasingly competitive, with a handful of well-known people in the field seemingly grabbing a lion’s share of the publicity (and business).  What’s a new coach to do?

One extremely effective way to get noticed is to hold a virtual event, or telesummit.  It consists of coordinating a handful of speakers, including you, in order to provide free or low-cost lectures or interviews on related topics via webinars or telephone conference calls over the course of a few days.  How does this get you tons of free publicity?  It works because all participants in the telesummit promote the event to their clients, on their blogs and/or in their newsletters, just as you will to yours.  It’s a win-win situation for everyone involved.

first-clientWhile your ultimate goal may be to create a six-figure coaching business, what if you’re new to coaching and haven’t had your first client yet?  How does a new coach get from ground zero to building a successful and lucrative business?

I compare getting your first client to what many college graduates face when they first try to enter the job market; many employers only want to hire people with experience, but new grads can’t begin to gain experience until they land their first job.  Seems unfair, doesn’t it?  Yet the reality is, those fresh out of school do compete with applicants with a track record.  How can they get their first break on such an uneven playing field?

If this sounds like where you are in your coaching business, take heart—every successful coach before you has stood on the same threshold at one point, and eventually crossed it.  With the right mindset and preparation, you can, too.

Here are my 10 tried and true techniques for getting your very first coaching client (and many more to follow): [Read Full Article…]

okDid you know that if you treat coaching like a product, you’ll get a lot more clients?

A product is much easier to sell than a service, and here are just a few reasons why:

  • A product is much more tangible: people know exactly what they’ll be getting when they buy it.
  • A product has specific benefits and outcomes, which are a lot easier to explain to a prospect. A service is more like a concept.
  • When you sell a service you are selling something that doesn’t exist yet. You can’t try out the service before you buy it. You pay for it and then you get it.

So how do you make coaching more tangible? You package it!

Here’s my 5 simple ideas for effectively packaging your coaching services for more clients, AND to increase your income: [Read Full Article…]

fruit-bowlIf your idea of giving yourself a raise looks like hitting all the local networking events in the hope of getting new clients, I can certainly understand it. I’ve been there… I remember joining my local Chamber of Commerce, then attending weekly events hoping to make even a a single connection that would lead to a client.

What I didn’t know is that it’s not about networking or making a connection – it’s about building relationships, and that took time, a lot of time. As a mom of two small kids, I simply didn’t have the time to dedicate to this strategy, so I started looking for other ways to generate cash quickly to stay in business.

Since then, I discovered many new strategies, none of which required me to network, sell, or travel! Plus, they positioned me in such a great situation financially, that searching for clients became a thing of the past.

Let me share 7 of these really great income strategies I personally used over the last few years, which can help you stabilize your monthly cash flow, create peace of mind, and make you feel confident about your business growth. [Read Full Article…]
