What if I can’t afford to market?
Marketing effectively doesn’t always require tons of money. Remember, effective marketing is about building relationships with ideal clients. It’s not about spending a year’s rent on a month of advertising. There are a number of things you can do at very low cost, and even for free.
No Hype Help: Ask about a single strategy consult for starter ideas.
What if I’ve already tried these things and they haven’t worked yet?
It’s quite possible that you have taken a scattered approach, rather than using a focused, systematic method that has been proven by many to really work. You may not be as clear and concrete in conceptualizing or languaging the characteristics of your ideal client as you believe you are. Or, it could be that you aren’t tracking your results and making necessary adjustments when needed. Marketing is an ongoing process of trial and error, fine tuning and shifting with the wants of the ideal client.
No Hype Help: Consider a one month private mentor package to pinpoint where your marketing design flaws are so that you can know what to fix, and in what order. A one month package can help you prioritize the best methods to follow for the next 3-6 months, provide some implementation support to get you going in the right direction.
What if I really am just running a hobby, not a business?
If your goal is to make even a little income, and you need clients to provide that income, you can use many of the steps, processes, and products that a fulltime private practice uses. Being in business is a mindset and an approach to how you structure your time and sequence your activities. It’s not about how much money you are making, but does have a lot to do with doing things with confidence and an expectation of success.
No Hype Help: Consider the Shy Counselor Client Solution workbook to find tips on shifting your mindset and focusing your client attracting methods.
What if I have some special circumstances that limit my skills or ability to be fully visible?
Any limitations or special circumstances can be considered design obstacles to problem solve. Think of it this way: Having a boulder in the backyard presents challenges to the functionality of the space. But the yard can still be beautifully landscaped while also incorporating the unique features of the boulder.
The problem of the boulder prompts more creative solutions for the requirements of the yard’s design. Having personal limitations or restrictive situations in which to operate your business is the same opportunity for creative problem solving.
No Hype Help: Work from the perspective of running a creative experiment and let your inner problem solver brainstorm possibilities you can apply to your situation. Mentor-coaching is available to help you create an action plan you can live ~~ and thrive! ~~ with.
What if I can’t or don’t finish a contracted No Hype Mentor program?
Private Intensive packages are pre-paid in full with the understanding that you are holding yourself accountable for doing the work within the scheduled timeframe of your contract. In essence you are purchasing a professional education program, and it is up to you to complete it on time. A 30 day grace period is part of each Intensive contract to provide the time for completion when sessions need to be rescheduled due to holidays or true medical emergencies.
Fees for Intensives will not be pro-rated, other than by the stated discounts for multiple session packages, and will not be returned in the event that you do not finish the work. Every effort will be made by the No Hype Mentor to assist you in adhering to a mutually agreed schedule. In no circumstances can unscheduled sessions be “banked” to be used during some unspecified future time.
Group Mentoring Programs are pre-paid in full with the same understanding that you are accountable for moving through the lessons as scheduled. Since most lessons are available online 24/7, there is no grace period included in the group programs. Some group programs may have a limited money back guarantee.
If you have special circumstances or limitations on your ability to market your practice, a Single Strategic Guidance Session might be what you need.
