Dear Stretched-Thin Coach/ Entrepreneur…
PLEASE do yourself a favor: Take 2 minutes and read my message to you below...
Whether or not you & I ever cross paths again, I want you to know there is an easier, clearer path to a SIMPLE online business that actually makes money. It does NOT have to be a long, expensive, uncertain road. I'm here to help.
Gut check: Do you feel like you've been spinning in circles, struggling to get clients on the Internet?
Are you trying to get things up and running with all the "stuff" - websites, social media, online courses, webinars etc. etc. etc...
...But nothing's really working because you're struggling with the ORDER to do things in and/or feeling like you don't know what you don't know and/or you get hung up on that dang techie stuff at every turn?
My name is Kathryn Calhoun - I'm your tech coach. If you've been in my orbit for awhile, you know I’m halfway decent at bringing in clients quickly:
I’m a multi-6-figure entrepreneur coach & I have monetized many businesses in UNDER a week.
…But the bad news is this:
I used to miss opportunity after opportunity to get clients because my strategy used to be alllllll over the map and my techie stuff was just not in place.
In fact, it took me TWO YEARS to make my first 32 CENTS online. (Yep, seriously.)
I grew at a snail's pace & managed to keep a roof over my family's head - barely - but I was working my tail off all the time: evenings, weekends, even on vacation...
Maybe you can relate? If so, I'm glad you're here because life as an entrepreneur is about to get SO much easier for you...
Introducing CMS Self-Study...
"How do I get people to grab my freebie?"
"How do I find people to make offers to?"
"How do I get people to show up for my webinars & launches?"
"How do I get people to pay attention on social media?"
Setting up your online business stuff is important, but not if you don't fill it with prospects and clients!
This full course shows you exactly how to implement 50 simple visibility tactics for getting eyeballs on your offers so you can stop wondering where your next client is coming from and start selling MORE - $1,000 VALUE
CMS is all about keeping your startup costs as close to zero as possible, even when it comes to your techie tools...
...Because you may not have thousands of dollars and 6 or 7 years to throw at the problem of how to get your online business off the ground. I totally get that because I'm the exact same way.
This full course shows you how to leverage special referral programs so you can either offset your tech costs or even have your tech be a net MONEY-MAKER for you...
Almost since Day 1, I've been earning MORE from my techie tools than I spend and this course shows you exactly what I did and how you can do it to, no matter what niche or stage of business you're in. - $500 VALUE
"I love what I do, but I hate marketing/selling."
"I'm worried people will be upset when I make offers."
"I wish I didn't have to sell. I wish I could just focus on my zone of genius."
This isn't a course full of rigid scripts, formulas & templates. It's about tapping into that inner part of you that not only CAN sell, but LOVES to sell & is awesome at it (I promise that person DOES exist!).
......because all the tech in the world is not going to help you if you don't know how to sell your stuff. - $1,500 VALUE
Q: Is this the same as CMS Mastermind or CMS Gold?
A: Nope. The CONTENT is exactly the same. The LEVEL OF SUPPORT is different. The TUITION LEVEL is significantly lower.
In CMS SELF-STUDY, there is very little coaching and Q&A... You DO get 100% access to the exact same content available to Mastermind & Gold CMS Members. 💪💪💪
Is it as much handholding? Obviously not. But if you're:
...this is a GREAT way to get complete access to CMS training without breaking the bank.
Q: Is the membership run live? Is the content dripped out? What if I can't attend?
A: The membership is essentially 100% self-study (with some exceptions, see below) and on-demand. You can learn on your schedule & at your own pace. Materials are NOT "dripped out" - everything is instant access.
Q: It's a full-year membership program? Can I just stay for a month or two?
A: Nope. I am extremely protective of this awesome community & experience has taught me I can't possibly help you get where you want to go with your business in just a month or two.
This membership is for entrepreneurs who are SERIOUS & COMMITTED to the growth of their business. A real business is not grown overnight - YOU have to commit to your own success & be in it for the long haul.
Q: I'm not sure how much time I have for this. Should I wrap up my other commitments first?
A: Here's how you can tell if CMS Self-Study will fit into your life:
...CMS was designed to help you fast-track your success. CMS will not TAKE you more time. It will SAVE YOU MORE TIME.
If you're reeeealllllly busy...
Well, we're all busy. CMS was designed to fit into your life.
Whether you have 1 hour a week or 60 to devote to your business, the key thing is that you are doing the RIGHT things and that you have SUPPORT to speed things up in whatever time is available to you.
If you are short on time but SERIOUS about the success of your business, CMS will help you get there faster because you'll finally be focused on doing the right things in the right order.
Q: I'm just getting started and/or I really, really, REALLY don't have much reach/visibility in my niche. Will CMS work for a "small fish" like me?
A: If you are currently struggling to get visibility or find people to make offers to, CMS was DESIGNED for you.
Success with your online business requires 3 ingredients:
(1) A clear plan.
(2) Techie implementation.
(3) Eyeballs on your offers, on you, on your business.
CMS encompasses ALL of the above because if you are missing any of those ingredients, your business WILL fail. This program is everything you need to DIY your simple, successful online business on a budget.
Q: What if I haven't settled on a business idea or ideal client yet? Can you help?
A: YES! CMS starts with making sure you have these essential foundational pieces dialed in.
If you are still looking for clarity on your business idea or ideal client avatar, CMS is the perfect place to start because you'll be jumping in with guidance and certainty that you are moving in the RIGHT direction, right off the bat.
No confusion, no wrong turns, no spinning in circles, no guesswork. That's what CMS is all about.
Q: What if I'm really, really, REALLY REEEEALLLLLYYY not techie though?
A: I know you've felt like throwing your computer at the wall. I promise CMS can help. My whole jam is teaching entrepreneurs how to navigate their techie stuff simply and painlessly.
My clients go from feeling frustrated and defeated to inspired and empowered by what they can accomplish.
Lots of people have come to me saying they feel stupid because of the techie stuff...
That's just because nobody has taken the time to show you with patience, clear steps, and easy-to-understand, click-by-click-by-click tutorials.
I've helped THOUSANDS of tech-challenged entrepreneurs. You CAN do this. You are going to AMAZE yourself, I promise.
Q: What if I AM pretty techie or I have all my tech set up? Do I still need CMS?
A: If your tech is more or less dialed in, here's how to tell if CMS will help you:
If you answered "no" to any of the above, you should strongly consider joining CMS.
It's great if your tech is together already - that can help you move faster - but the key question is, "Is your tech actually WORKING for you?"
There's no point on spending money and time maintaining a tech setup if there's no return on investment.
If you're comfortable with your tech but you still need to fast-track your RESULTS, CMS will help.
Q: What if the tech tools I want to use aren't the same as the tools you recommend?
A: That's potentially okay and potentially an issue. The tech tools recommended in CMS are chosen very carefully for you - and they are the same tools I use myself.
I choose ALL tools based on: ease of use, cost (many are even free), good customer service, and a few other key factors.
If you wish to stick with your existing tools, you will benefit most from the Business Builder & Success Habits modules, which are all about the right plan to build your simple, successful online business, done in the correct step-by-step order.
The Tech Library tutorials will be of limited benefit to you if you choose not to use the tools I recommend, but with tutorials for over a dozen different tools, you're sure to find value for various aspects of your business.
The Tech Library includes tutorials for: email marketing, graphic design, webinars, course delivery, shopping carts, video creation, websites, landing page builders, launches, appointment scheduling, 1-on-1 coaching tools & more. Everything you need is in there, even if you choose not to use every piece.
Q: What if I have a question? Is there any support or coaching in CMS Self-Study?
A: There is, yes (more on that below) AND please keep in mind CMS Self-Study is intentionally light on coaching in order to be budget-friendly.
Here is how to receive support in CMS Self-Study:
If you already know that à la carte coaching is not enough and you want to fast-track your progress even more (or you just know you want more handholding from me), you can save on coaching by upgrading to CMS Gold during the checkout process. This allows you to attend all live CMS group coaching + Q&A calls. There are 2-3 calls a month (it works out to appx. 24 calls per year).
Q: Can I join later?
A: Full Transparency: YES. However, the bonus package is always subject to change once the current membership drive ends. The best deal for CMS is right now.
Also: You can join later, but will you?
It's a serious question that is not some marketing tactic but something I genuinely want you to answer for yourself...
So often I hear "I'll join after I'm finished with X" or "I'll join once I start making money," but then I fall off your radar and you continue to struggle, alone, spending too much time & money with nothing to show for it. This is not my favorite!
If you KNOW you'll be back - and you're willing to lose out on the thousands of dollars in bonuses - that is of course okay, if it's what makes sense for you right now.
...But if all you're going to do for the next year is continue to work on the wrong stuff and just keep feeling worse and worse about all the jumping all over the place you're doing, please, for the love of Pete, just get off the dang hamster wheel and say "yes" now.
Secure your bonuses and spend whatever time you ARE spending on your business intelligently and strategically...
The truth is, under no circumstances will you ever be "100% ready." Real success doesn't happen when we have nothing better to do.
If your business is a priority, start today for goodness' sake! If you start today, you'll start seeing results one day earlier than if you start tomorrow.
Q: I'm not sure I can afford CMS Self-Study Membership. Any tips?
A: Yep! A few things:
