Woman Owned: The Growth Podcast for Women Entrepreneurs

Have you ever looked at the competition in your industry and noticed that your following, database, or subscriber list is way smaller than everyone else's? You want to make more sales, but don't want to ruin your reputation with those high-pressure sales tactics. Don't worry, help is on the way. When I transitioned into coaching, selling wasn't easy. Quite frankly, it was like a whole new language. I quickly learned that selling hard isn't about being pushy or forcing people into joining your lists. It's about structure and positioning. Keep Reading >> I use a lot of basketball references in this episode to explain the importance of positioning in your business. Rebounders in the game are always looking for where the shot is coming from and where it's going to bounce to. Then, it's about positioning yourself to catch the rebound. In this way and many others, basketball is a lot like sales. In this episode, I'm sharing how you can sell harder without ruining your reputation with high-pressure sales tactics. You don't have to feel gross about selling if you understand how to position your offers in a way that ascends your customers from one level to the next. I'm talking about setting yourself up to get the rebound, releasing the pressure you put on yourself to sell harder, and ascension creation. The things I share today are some of the ways I was able to build a seven-figure business with a much smaller list than most of my colleagues. I did it, so I know you can too. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: Why rebounding in basketball is just like positioning yourself for a sale. How mastering positioning is crucial for success in sports and in business. How to position yourself correctly for the sale. The importance of knowing our customers' next-level wants. What creation ascension is and how to plan out milestones. The gorgeous organization principle that allows you to sell hard consistently.

Some women just know how to collaborate with other women, how to uplift other women, how to bring together groups of incredible women under a shared purpose to create a better world. No one does this better than my dear friend and guest on today's show, Claudia Chan. Claudia is the CEO of SHE GLOBL Media, the multi-platform women's empowerment media company that is behind the renowned S.H.E. SUMMIT conference. This is a woman that has a whole lot going on and is doing a ton to advance women's empowerment, especially through her Whole-Life Leadership methodology. Keep Reading >> With everything going on in the world right now (George Floyd's murder, BLM protests, COVID, to name a few), people everywhere are feeling the spark to get involved. People want to be part of the change but many don't know what steps to take. Claudia believes that to make outward change you have to start by going inward. In this episode, you get to be a fly on the wall of a conversation between two friends about purpose, empowerment, spirituality, and activation. Each of us was born with a purpose, and Claudia shares how the key to driving change is igniting and unleashing that greatness within. We're discussing how organizational change can't happen without personal development, the role God plays in our businesses, and how Whole-Life Leadership is a gift we can give to our families and businesses. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: What relational intentionality is and how you can start practicing it. How Claudia has chosen to respond to everything going on in the world. How we can balance listening and learning with using our voices. That every person has a diversity story that can help them enact change. Where Claudia gets her clarity and next level work.

No stranger will get in your car and ride with you if you aren't clear where you're taking them. In marketing, we call this destination the 'promised land.' It's where your customers want to go based on what you tell them in your messaging about your brand, offerings, products and services. Of course, the concept of the promised land isn't just used in marketing. It's found in Greek mythology, Nordic mythology, and most religions. As humans, we're obsessed with getting to the final destination. It's why we watch before-and-after transformation shows. We want to see what the promised land looks like and how we can get there. Keep Reading >> If you aren't clear on your offering's promised land, why would a customer hop on board for the journey? When marketing your business and your offerings, you want to take time to get clear on what the promised land you offer is. What is the promised destination your customer wants to arrive at? Listen in today as I spell out how you can dramatically improve your marketing by clearly articulating your promised land to your customers. I'm breaking down the allure we as humans have to promised lands and how to tap into that innate interest in your marketing. I'll share some examples of brands that are completely nailing the marketing for their promised lands and how you can create and market yours. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: What the promised land means in marketing. How humans have been obsessed with the promised land for centuries.

What is the end game for you and your business? I would bet that you'd like to be working less, spending time with those you love more, and making a positive impact on the causes you care about.

You will continue to be overworked and overwhelmed by your business. If that sounds like you, you need to listen to this episode. Time management is not your problem, queen, leverage is your problem.

Are you struggling to take your business to the next level? Perhaps you have a killer marketing strategy and a business that fulfills and excites you. Yet for some reason, your prospects aren't buying what you're selling. One of the most common reasons for this problem is that you don't believe. If you don't believe in your offerings, your prospects' abilities, or yourself, your customers won't either. The truth is, to sell more you need to believe harder. But it's not as simple as showing up for your business every day. Belief takes more than just showing up, and there are three different categories of belief that you need to focus on. Keep Reading >> In my coaching, I see tons of women entrepreneurs who lack belief in these different categories and it directly impacts their sales. Some of you are marketing an offering you don't actually want to deliver. Some of you don't believe your prospects can get the results you want to guarantee. And many of you simply don't believe that you have the power to do the selling. In today's episode, I'm sharing the three categories of belief that you need to have in order to sell more. The harder you believe in these categories, the more you will sell. I give some real examples of each belief and the ways you can work through your limitations. And, I take you through an exercise to evaluate your level of belief in each category so you know where you can improve. If you want your prospects to believe what you're marketing so you can sell more, start with believing harder. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: The 3 types of beliefs that you must cultivate in order to sell more. How to elevate your belief across these 3 categories. Why I always pay attention to feelings of freedom and constriction. Why so many of us have a Superwoman Complex and how it affects our teams. How believing in yourself is a learned skill. An exercise for evaluating your belief levels and ways to improve.

My grandpa once told me that it is a woman's prerogative to change her mind. In every scenario and especially in business, you have the power to niche down, do a big scale do-over or reposition whenever you think you need to. Successful leaders and entrepreneurs exercise the right to change their minds. My guest today is the perfect example of a successful entrepreneur ending one business to start another that felt more aligned with her ambitions and goals. If your business doesn't fulfill you or make you happy, eventually it will plateau. But, being aware of your positioning and knowing when it's time to pivot can prevent that. Keep Reading >> This is easier said than done because as women, we've been conditioned to fit in and never leave anyone behind, including customers. How do you uplevel your business and move on from your loyal following? In today's episode, I'm joined by sales coach and "unapologetic wealth creator," Jess Lorimer. Jess is the founder of Smart Leader Sell and focuses on corporate sales, but this isn't what her business always looked like. She's sharing how her decision to take bold action came about and how she implemented it. We'll discuss the bumps she faced along the way as well as the reasons women entrepreneurs struggle with taking massive action. If you have ever wanted to call time-out on the business you are building, this episode is for you. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: What prompted Jess to make the decision to change her business. What happens when you aren't fulfilled by the business you're building. How women are socialized not to leave anyone behind. Why women hold themselves back from making major decisions. The 2 different types of fear we face as business owners. Why selling transparently is the least sleazy form of sales.

You've established what it is you're good at and what you can offer, now you're ready for the next level. That next level is the final "P" in this podcast's name, Position.

Your brand is more than your products, your services, and even yourself. The most successful businesses take branding a step deeper by uncovering a brand promise. This is your presence in the marketplace and in your Most Valuable Buyers' lives. Brands like Apple, BMW, and Geico all have comprehensive, evocative brand promises that lay the foundation for their content and marketing. I know that once you uncover your brand's promise, all that pent-up demand will start flowing along with the money. Keep Reading >> Remember, great brands aren't invented. They're uncovered. And by getting really clear on your message, you can start using your voice to find your voice. It's always clarity before creativity. Your brand promise is the heartbeat of your messaging. In today's episode, I'm delving into the second "P" of Power + Presence + Position and sharing why I think it's so important to uncover your brand promise. I'm sharing the exact steps to find your brand promise and why I chose "Unapologetically Ambitious" as my own. You and I are both here to achieve long-lasting success, not to be one-hit wonders. Cultivating presence is a key part of your brand's foundation. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: The actual definition of "brand" and "brand promise." 6 businesses who are nailing their brand promises. Why your brand promise needs to be comprehensive and evocative. How to uncover your brand promise. Why using your voice helps you find your voice.

I love getting a behind-the-scenes look at how other women entrepreneurs are growing their companies. It's so fascinating to see what steps they're taking to build their dominions and discover what I can learn from them. Hiring is one of those behind-the-scenes functions of a business that outsiders don't get to see. That's why, today, I'm sharing how exactly I created my hiring plan for the rest of 2020. It's also how I'm activating my power in my business. Keep Reading >> Power is one of the three pillars of this show, along with Presence and Position. Not only is power a loaded word when it comes to women and business, but it requires you to have immense clarity and conviction. Hiring the right people requires you to use your power to shape your future. In today's episode, I'm diving into power, where it comes from, how it shapes you as a leader, and thus, your business. I want to show you how I made my hiring plan because getting clear about how your company will grow is powerful. When we start tolerating things in our business, it means it's time to get real about our power and get clear about our path to success. Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast: What power is and where it comes from. How I created my hiring plan for the rest of 2020. Why frustration can be a signal from your internal guidance system to pay attention. How to discover what you're tolerating in your business. How profit pressure can contribute to entrepreneurial burnout. Why you can only be in your power when you have clarity and conviction.
