00:04:38 Kaila – HeyKaila Media: Win: finally sent my first maintenance package proposal!
00:04:57 Janet Hoover: I took your advice last week and told my client that I don’t do discounts but what I can do is….xyz. I think you were right, he couldn’t help himself and HAS to ask for a discount lol. Once I gave him what I could help him with, he’s like “send me the invoice” 🙂
00:05:01 Janet Hoover: YES, Kaila!!
00:05:14 Caitlin Harrison: I sold my low end package 🙌🏻 of course I wanted them to pick the mid or high but now I get to really create that system to make it effortless AND reminding myself that this rate is higher than most packages I sold in 2021

00:08:07 Janet Hoover: Yay, Sharon!
00:08:25 Kim Stone: I had posted in the chat about a potential client. She did not take me up on my offer. She said that the price was out of her price range. So not sure how I’ll respond.

00:08:41 Angela Winter (she/her): I just had a wonderful consultation with a referral and am hopeful we'll be able to move forward!
00:09:23 Kate Newnham: I followed up w/someone who didn’t have the $$ to pay for any of my packages but she said “I REALLY want to work with you. I’ll find the $$ and be in touch in 3 weeks”
00:09:39 Janet Hoover: Ooo, nice Kate!

00:10:07 Lisa: Awesome Kate!
00:10:11 Leigh Scott: I love that Shannon regarding Iceland. I was talking to my therapist today and he was telling me about how our subconscious is hardwired to focus on the negative instead of the positive as a protective mechanism. But because we’re no longer running from saber tooth tigers, it actually does us more harm than good because the bad seems so much worse than it actually is. so we have to consciously remember to focus on the good. it reminded me so much of the mindtrash stuff
00:10:14 Kaila – HeyKaila Media: Reacted to “I sent out outreach …” with ❤️
00:10:45 Janet Hoover: Such a good reminder, Leigh
00:10:51 Kate Newnham: Saber tooth tigers 🤣
00:10:58 Caitlin Harrison: has anyone here gone through “the artists way?” I just started week 1

00:17:40 MoonSoar Services – Courtney & John: Board experience! I’d have a hard time turning that down.
00:21:55 Sharon Blalock OBM: I’d say outsource the actual work… outsource what you don’t like to do
00:23:19 Sharon Blalock OBM: Offer a website assessment
00:24:11 Leigh Scott: I would think because they’re CMOs you could really focus on the strategy piece and that would resonate a lot with them
00:26:03 MoonSoar Services – Courtney & John: Oh fluid thinker! That’s a fascinating term for one of my clients!
