About a year ago, I had a conversation on this podcast that completely changed the way that I viewed my facilitation business. That conversation was with today’s guest, Alan Weiss, the Rockstar of Consulting.
Not only did that interview resonate with me, it resonated with many of you, so I had to invite Alan back on the show for an encore performance.
Last year’s interview was a real watershed moment for me. Since then, I’ve been really adjusting, reshaping, rethinking the way I work... Spending less time on social media, and also focusing on my mindset… in an attempt to be more fearless!
In this conversation (which is like a group coaching call!), we pick Alan’s brain on:
- How to 10 x your fee
- What to do with feedback - the answer may surprise you
- What we can do everyday to build our self worth
- Free or fee? Should we charge for our webinars and information sessions (or not)?
- How to reach true, economic buyers in organisations
- How much research you should do before contacting a buyer
- …and much, much more.
Members of the Booked Out Facilitator program were my co-hosts, and jumped in to ask Alan questions about every aspect of building our facilitation businesses.
I enjoyed being a lazy facilitator on this call and letting the brilliance of the Booked Out Facilitators take over the microphone.
Underpinning all of Alan’s responses is a philosophy of being fearless - of tooting your own horn, and of leaping into action.
