Chill & Prosper with Denise Duffield-Thomas

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we’re talking about how to create a million dollar course.  I’ll share the evolution of my Money Bootcamp - and how I started and grew it to over 7,000 students.  I want to inspire you to create a million dollar course too!

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we’re going back in time to talk about my very first year in business - including how much money I made. I made a ton of mistakes in my first few years - but I always had a dream for a million dollar business.   If you’ve wondered how I got started, today’s episode is for you!

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we’re talking about when you love your business but the money hasn’t shown up yet.  You know that saying "Love what you do and you'll never work a day in your life"?  Well…. I have plenty of thoughts about that. Yes, you can love your business and make money - but it doesn’t happen by accident. Especially not the millions.  Love isn't enough for the money just to magically show up. Are you ready for some Denise real-talk? 

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, I’m talking about meeting Oprah and how freaking cool it was.  I’ve spoken about it before but there's some new insights recently about how it changed me.  It was a very cool experience with some interesting lessons for all of us.

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we’re talking about some lessons I've learned from being a millionaire.  I love talking about money! Part of my job in the world is normalizing talking about money and wealth.  My business reached the million dollar revenue mark 6 years ago, and I’ve learned a LOT.  Want to hear about it?

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we’re talking about converting brainpickers into paying clients. If you’re sick of giving free advice to everyone or if your business isn’t growing quickly enough - you need to listen. BUT - even if you’re not doing free work - let’s see where this could be creeping in, because that’s exactly what happened to me recently!

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we’re talking about price increases.   Pricing is one of the hardest things in business.  Wouldn’t it be nice if someone told you what to charge - and also told you the perfect time to raise your prices?  Well - I’m not doing that!  Price increases bring up a lot of fear and insecurity. Will you get criticized by some people? Yes.  Will you lose all your clients? NO!  It doesn’t have to be scary at all. But there are definitely some strategies to help you justify it to yourself!

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we’re talking about how to create a lot of marketing content for your business. Without stress. People ask me this a lot, because I am seen as someone who is prolific and consistent in my business.  I’ve created weekly content (either a blog post or podcast) and written a weekly newsletter for almost 12 years. I’ve barely missed a day posting on social media.  That doesn’t just happen by accident.  That consistency has made me over $20m - yes TWENTY MILLION DOLLARZ.  I’ve barely had anything go viral but I’ve shown up consistently every day and every week.  Daunting? Don’t worry - we can make it fun and easy. 

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we are talking about making it easy for people to give you money.  That's what we're all in business to do, right?  But often it's not so simple.  We sabotage ourselves and unknowingly we make it really hard for people to simply… pay us.  Are you sabotaging yourself? You might be surprised!

In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, we are talking about launch failures!  I’ve had them (many times) and I see people quit their business after a particular dismal launch.  If you love launching, you need to listen.  If you HATE launching, you definitely need to listen!
