Do you ever feel like you aren’t getting the results you want even though you are smart, hardworking, and good at what you do? Many times, people are held back by unconscious patterns or beliefs they aren’t even aware of. In this workshop you will learn: – Three sources of mental blocks: When you identify where your blocks come from it makes it easier to shift them. – Six common blocks: When you shift these blocks you unlock keys to your success. – Five Success Mindset Tools: How to take action so that you reprogram your mindset for success. – Goal, Intentions, and Visualization: These are the steps that create a habit where you see yourself in the future having achieved your goals. This workshop is for anyone who wants to bring more success into their life or business. It’s especially helpful for those who feel stuck and unsure about how to move forward. You will learn about old thought patterns that need to shift, so that you can get the results you know you are capable of accomplishing. The Facilitator for this Workshop is Christopher Leirer. Christopher is passionate about helping people succeed. He teaches small business owners, consultants, and budding entrepreneurs how to build the confidence needed to reach their full potential. Helping someone move from self-doubt to unwavering belief in reaching their goals is one of the most rewarding aspects of the work that he does.

He works with them to reprogram the patterns and beliefs that are holding them back and does this by using hypnosis. It is amazing how the mind works. After you shift the beliefs and thoughts that are getting in the way, you are able to achieve your goals (often in a bigger way than you had even imagined).

Are you a local business owner looking for a new way to reach and engage your community? Join our 60-minute webinar to unlock the immense potential of podcasting for your brand. In an era where audio is a dominant form of media consumption, podcasts are a powerful and effective tool for local businesses to build trust, drive sales, and acquire new customers. This webinar will reveal how promotions work in the podcasting world, differentiating them from traditional, evergreen marketing funnels. We'll explore the core equation for a successful promotion: Product/Service + Offer + Scarcity = Promotion. You'll learn how the limited nature of promotions creates urgency and gives your audience a reason to act now. We'll cover the three key promotional categories—Monetization, Activation, and Acquisition—and show you how to design a promotion that encourages the exact behavior you want from your audience.   We will dive into the data to show you why podcasts are a must-have for local marketers. With a staggering 55% of Americans consuming podcasts monthly, the audience is massive and highly engaged. Daily podcast listening is growing across every age group. Most importantly, you will learn that podcast hosts are 5X more influential than social media influencers, as 80% of fans trust their hosts as much as friends and family. Finally, we’ll guide you step-by-step on how to build and track your own podcast promotion. Learn how to craft a compelling offer and leverage different types of podcast-based "lead magnets," such as exclusive content or special discount codes. We will walk through the process of creating a promotional calendar as a strategic roadmap for your business. You'll leave with a clear action plan to compile your product list and begin building powerful, effective promotions that can become evergreen assets for your brand.   What You'll Learn: The fundamental difference between promotions and evergreen marketing funnels. How to apply the core promotion equation: Product/Service + Offer + Scarcity = Promotion. The three key promotional categories: Monetization, Activation, and Acquisition, and how to use them to achieve your business goals. Key statistics on why podcasting is the most trusted and effective medium for marketing. Step-by-step guidance on creating a promotional calendar to plan for consistent cash flow and strategic campaigns. How to craft compelling podcast offers and titles that capture your local audience's attention.   This webinar is for local business owners, entrepreneurs, and marketing managers who want to use the power of podcasting to grow their brand.
