Are you a coach stuck at low six figures despite an impressive corporate background? A former VP came to me. Despite an impressive corporate career, she was stuck selling $5K packages, barely breaking six figures. Why? Because the positioning and pricing that worked in her corporate career didn’t translate to her coaching business. After working together, she sold her first 6-figure package in months and scaled significantly. Another coach—armed with a PhD from an Ivy League school and experience working with top-tier companies—struggled to find her own clients while working under someone else’s umbrella. Within months of joining Expert Accelerator, she landed her first $50K client and started building a business she owns. Then there’s the leadership coach and management consultant. She’d been stuck at $300K for over a decade despite delivering exceptional results and having a stellar reputation. In our second month working together, she sold a $180K package. Within a year, she scaled her business to 7 figures. Years of experience and corporate titles don’t automatically translate to ultra-high-end sales. The issue isn’t expertise. It’s positioning, pricing and strategy. How to go from undervalued to in-demand: 🧠 Shift your mindset: Own your value and embrace what’s possible. 👩💼 Reposition your expertise: Showcase your authority with crystal-clear, compelling messaging. 💰 Build premium offers: Stop selling by the hour—align your prices with the true transformation you provide. 🤝 Learn high-end sales: Confidently pitch and close high 5- and 6-figure deals. 🛠️ Scale smart: Implement systems that let you grow without burning out. Your years of experience are just the foundation. You need the right strategy to be truly respected, sought after and compensated at the level you want. The result? Clients who value your expertise. Ultra-high-end sales. A business you’re finally proud of. It’s time to step out of the shadows and own your worth. Are you ready to finally play at the level you’re capable of? Let’s make it happen.

Sometimes you just need a tiny tweak to your existing strategy to make a massive difference to your income and impact. 🌟 The wonderful Anna Hewitt of is, without doubt, one of the most talented career and leadership coaches I know. I’ve been on the receiving end of her coaching gifts so I know. 😉 She’s so good she even trains coaches for the brilliant In Good Company, UK when she’s not working with her own clients. 🤩 Anna had been running her coaching business for nearly 4 years before she joined Fruitful Founder™️. She had a lot in place already - raving clients, life-changing coaching packages, an active social media presence to name but a few. But she felt there were a few areas where she knew she needed to develop her business skills if she was going to make the impact and income she knew she was capable of. She won’t mind me saying that her sales process and system was one of those areas. 99% of my big-hearted, service-led clients find sales uncomfortable. They are all very gifted coaches and as such tend to rely on their brilliant coaching skills to sign clients. Because they’ve only ever seen traditional sales done in an unethical, sleazy and underhand way, they avoid it like the plague. ❌ In Fruitful Founder™️ we spend a whole month digging into your Ethical Sales Psychology and System™️. Because sales approaches that feel psychologically safe, for both you and your prospective clients, not only feel good but also actually consistently result in paying, perfect-fit clients. 👌 It’s a win-win. So if your iffy sales and marketing skills are holding you back from making the impact and income you crave in your coaching biz and you’ve completed at least 200 coaching hours, Fruitful Founder™️ could be a great fit. The doors open again in September. ✨ Comment WAITLIST below to be first to hear when the doors to Fruitful Founder™️, my signature marketing and sales group programme open again in September, and bag yourself a juicy bonus in the process. 🌸 #salesadviceforcoaches #businessmentor #businesscoach #ethicalmarketing #psychologicalsafety

🤝 Coaching Your Clients: The Secret Sauce of Sales Success 🤝 Let’s be honest—anyone can sell a product. But coaching your clients? That’s where the real magic happens. It’s the difference between being “just another vendor” and becoming their go-to trusted partner. Here’s why coaching is the ultimate power move: 🔥 Trust-Building 101: When you help clients get the most out of what you offer, they see you as more than just a salesperson. You’re the genius who *actually* cares about their success. 🔥 Happy Clients, Bigger Wins: Coached clients use your solutions better, get better results, and—spoiler alert—come back for more. Their growth becomes your growth. 🔥 Retention Goldmine: A well-coached client doesn’t just stay—they stick, rave, and refer. Why go elsewhere when they’ve got a partner who’s all-in? 🔥 Your Competitive Edge: In a crowded market, coaching is your superpower. Show them you’re not just selling; you’re invested in their journey. Bottom line? Coaching isn’t just nice—it’s necessary. It’s how you turn clients into super fans and sales into relationships that last. 💡 Ready to coach your way to stronger connections and bigger wins? Let’s make it happen.

You can't win if you are not a winner. Let me explain: You can try all the strategies in the world to succeed: ❖ E-commerce ❖ Coaching ❖ SAAS But if you are a poor little thing who shivers talking to prospects, you will never win. That's why you need to become a winner first before you try winning strategies. 1. Look face to face with all the wrong assumptions that blocks you. ❖  "He/she is too big for being my client" ❖  "This is too big of a deal to close" See where you sabotage yourself. 2. Install new beliefs You practice meditation and let go of the old beliefs. Now Install new ones ❖  "I bring 100X value to them than they bring to me" ❖  "This deal sounds good enough to the skills that I offer" Now you meet people with this winner attitude: you will never fail to win. Now you go and back it up with mastering your craft. Your prospects will feel it. Most people do this backwards, trying to change the external before they change themselves. That's not how reality works. P.S: If you want to scale your coaching/consulting biz to free 3-4 days/week while banking like never before with a high converting funnel, DM me "Abundance"

I’ve just returned from a 10-day getaway in Greece with my wife, and this trip was different from any other. Historically, I’ve always brought my laptop along for "urgent work"—much to my wife’s dismay. But this time, I decided to leave it behind. No work. No distractions. Just being present and truly disconnecting from business. Anyone who’s an entrepreneur, especially if you’re a CEO or founder of a start-up, knows how challenging it can be to fully switch off. But I did it. And honestly? It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I came back revitalized, rejuvenated, and bursting with new ideas. We explored Thessaloniki, Greece's second-largest city, rich in history and culture. We visited the White Tower, Aristotelous Square, and other fascinating landmarks. The city’s deep historical foundations made me think about the foundations we build in our businesses. Just like Thessaloniki, strong foundations can tell a powerful story for years to come. While on holiday, I also took the time to dive into a leadership book by John C. Maxwell Leadership Center —a refreshing read! Though I haven’t finished it yet, I had to share some key takeaways about the 5 Levels of Leadership: 1. Position - A good starting point, but a terrible place to stay. 2. Permission - People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. 3. Production - You can earn a position and develop permission without innate leadership ability. 4. People Development - Great leaders empower others. 5. Pinnacle - These leaders are known beyond their organization, field, and even their lifetime. My commitment to myself is to focus on self-development and intentionally work towards Level 5—while ensuring I’m consistently developing others along the way. One analogy that has always resonates deeply with me and pertinent to this: 1 + 1 equals 2. 1 next to 1 is 11. Multipliers deliver growth, but closeness delivers real impact. As my mentor René Carayol always says, "Leaders ACT." These 5 levels of leadership have been a lightbulb moment for me, and I’m committed to taking action. Just as the foundations in Thessaloniki stand to tell a story today, I’m driven to enhance my leadership to make a lasting impact. Does this resonate with any founders or revenue leaders? Where do you rank yourself on the leadership scale? 👋 I'm Mykee, CEO @ Ovule Consulting Ltd. ⚙️ We help demystify sales for tech and SaaS founders. 📌 Download our latest eBook here: https://loom.ly/VvAQBqM #newideas #switchoff #beingpresent #thewhitetower #entrepreneur #founder

It's been an uphill battle 🎯 ⛰ I had to learn to choose my battles, I had a hard time allocating time to build my sales system inside of my business. Don't get me wrong I have no problem speaking to a prospect, I believe I am skilled in articulating myself clearly and making my case objectively, however, I am one of those CEOs who like to be hands-on inside my business, it's one of my many gifts and still a weakness. The battle was not just the sales process and implementation it was cold calling, I had this ingenious idea to build a call center to reach more B2B clients for my business, at the time, while sitting on the beach in beautiful Jamaica ideas kept flowing and I was inspired! I thought when I got back I'm getting my team and we will launch this new formula. I tasked myself with 100 leads to test the flow of the system before deploying and I could not get myself to start, I committed but could not start! Fear had me by the neck, I could not seem to shake it. I would go to the office and get my tasks done but could not start dialing any leads. I was stuck! For months I had a book on my nightstand titled, 💡 Its Not the What It is Who 💡 The thing I felt was so inventive for my process was my quicksand and I could not feel the motivation to press forward. One day, I gave voice to it and I said it to my spouse, "Babe I'm so scared of this thing" he said to me in the most loving voice "Babe you got this! Don't let that obstacle stay in your way for too long it's time to move it." I started building the grit to overcome, but I slowly realized that I just needed to have my team take over, this is not my wheelhouse, I am skilled and competent but this was just not my thing, I was holding myself and my organization back for transformation. I did attempt the calls and quickly realized this was not my thing. I now understand the concept it's not the what it's the who. Lesson: 1. I am fully present to who I am and my capabilities 2. Coaches need coaching 3. Keep people around who will strengthen you and see in you the things you don't already realize. #personaldevelopment #leadershipcoaching #businessdevelopment #entrepenuership #B2Bsales #B2Bservices #corporategrind #mentoring #coachingcoaches #EQ

Do you know which are those 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 that can make you 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬 person in the world! Dr. Robert Cialdini's research says there are 6 principles of persuasion (you can go and read his book to know all) Principle No. 1 is classic : It is called as 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 Reciprocity means, people repay in kind. They are always under an obligation to give what they receive first. As per his example, if you invite a friend to your b'day party, it is more likely that they’ll invite you when it's their b'day party. His research hence suggests, if you wish to persuade someone, be the first one to give and make it personalized and unexpected. I have a question here : 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨? 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥, 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥, 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥 and while doing that, they miss the key point!
