Les Brown and Motivating Hundreds of Thousands

May 19, 2013 By Katrina Sawa Leave a Comment

This week I had the pleasure of speaking on stage alongside a very powerful motivator and speaker....Mr. Les Brown! It was exciting to not only hear him speak again but to be in a lineup with him this time was utterly amazing. Of course as the busy man that he is we didn't have a whole lot of time to truly connect but he was excited to receive my book, Love Yourself Successful, maybe he'll read it and see what I'm all about? One can only hope that it inspires him or someone he loves and shares it with just as he inspires me. This week was the Unleashed Biz 2013 event here in Sacramento.

How to Design Your Marketing Materials to Get Better Results

May 9, 2013 By Katrina Sawa Leave a Comment

Have you wondered why you rarely get calls from your postcards, flyers, letters, ads and even follow up from your business cards? Usually it’s because the content of the piece (the marketing piece) wasn’t compelling enough. Most small businesses have no idea how to write, design or structure their print marketing materials. It’s not your fault, you’ve just never been taught. Creating marketing pieces that get results is a learned skill. I come from the advertising world and have done extensive training on how to structure print materials, ads and now even online promotions too (including what you write on your website!). The key to designing print materials that work … [Read more...]

3 Sales Strategies to Incorporate Into Your Presentations or Speaking Gigs

April 10, 2013 By Katrina Sawa Leave a Comment

Speaking in front of an audience is often intimidating or scary. Some of us are more comfortable with it than others. Selling from the stage or in front of a room to a group is a different story though. You may be comfortable speaking and giving great content but are you making an offer or leading the audience to buy something or take an action of any kind? Often times we don’t do these things during our talks because we aren’t allowed to of course depending on the venue and type of event. But other times we are allowed to sell but still don’t or we just don’t do a very good job at it for one reason or another. Typically people who try to sell from the stage but aren’t … [Read more...]

I’m tired of all the hype….let’s get to the meat shall we?

I'm so tired of all the hype out there on the internet about "make millions at this or that or by doing this or that". Every week I talk with a minimum of 5 small business owners who've wasted time or money doing the wrong things because they listened to some free teleclass or someone teaching a supposed moneymaking process. I want to dispel the rumors out there that it's really that simple to make millions...or even $100,000 because it's not. To start, run, market and enjoy a consistently successful 6+ figure business there are two things you want to focus on: Spending your time wisely (and you may have to spend more time up front than "they say") doing the right revenue … [Read more...]
