Are you an experienced entrepreneur, coach or consultant who feels in your heart that you’re leaving money (and opportunities) on the table? 

Sure, you have the brains, the talent and the expertise, but you’re not selling out your programs, getting your scheduled filled with client appointments, and not being invited to speak at all the amazing events you hear about.

I can assure you, you are not alone. I hear the same complaint all the time from other ambitious, established entrepreneurs, solo professionals, and coaches. As a matter of fact, I don’t just hear it all the time… a while back, it happened to me too. 

Earn More, Work Less, and Enjoy Life Without Compromising Your Values By Showing Off Your Expertise

I’m Shannon Cherry, and I’m known as a creative relationship marketing thought leader. Why? Because I help business owners like you attract more prospects by helping them build a powerful presence online and offline through relationship marketing and amazing creative ideas. 

I started from scratch on the web in 2002 and built an extremely profitable business, one where I only work about 25-30 hours a week so I can spend more time doing the things I love. Things like: 

• Boating with my family in the summer. Or skiing together on Olympic slopes.
• Speaking at events all over the world.
• Going out to lunch with my husband whenever I want.
• Dropping off and meeting my twin girls off the bus every school day.  (And exploring and playing when school’s out.)
• Traveling to Europe for a month with my family

Using every Friday as my ‘free day,’ that is free to do anything I want or nothing at all.
  
Now these may not be what you’d like to do, but for me I couldn’t ask for a better life – and it’s all due to my business growth over the past couple of years. 

And there’s something else I love about my life and my business…

It’s strickly cash-only. I have no debt (except for the mortgage on my beautiful Victorian Row House in the Capital of New York). That’s right, all my business expenses are paid for in $$, not credit cards. 

But that wasn’t always the case…

A few years ago, I was depressed. My business, frankly, sucked. Although I was great at what I do, I had very few clients – and even they didn’t pay me very much. I worked more than 12 hours every day to make the little money I had. 

And I was desperate. I bought tons of programs and classes that promised to teach me to make more money. I paid for coaches to help me get ‘unstuck.’ I even went back to work part-time to help pay for all this ‘stuff.’ 

You know what happened? Nothing. Not one new client or customer for everything I invested. Sure, I got a few new tricks to use, but nothing was exactly what I needed to succeed. 

So I took a look at all the ‘stuff’ I invested in over the years, hoping to find the answer. And you know what? It was there, staring me in the face the whole time. 

The answer wasn’t IN any of the cds, dvds, ebooks, or workshops I attended. Well, at least, not in WHAT they said or taught. 

The answer was in WHY I bought these things in the first place. 

I chose them because the person who was selling the product or coaching service created a powerful presence – one that made me want to get to know them, like them and trust them. A presence so powerful that it made me feel like buying from them was the right thing to do.  Then I realized, by using the skills I already had – and testing what worked for my target market – I could build a presence like those I bought from. 

And once I did, my business took off. Now I am considered the go-to person in public relations, publicity, sponsorship and creative marketing. Even those who I bought products and coaching from before now turn to me for advice and my knowledge – all because I used my creative relationship-building methods to develop my powerful presence. 

Almost anyone can master the creative marketing principles that bring in clients and customers by the boatload.

You DON’T have to be a marketing professional to get all the prospects you want quickly, easily, and economically… You just need to learn to create your own POWERFUL PRESENCE

Creating a powerful presence is the Next Generation of Marketing Strategies. Now that may sound full of hype, but let me explain… 
Your customers have tired of the overly aggressive marketing that many push. It doesn’t work like it used to, nor should it. Prospects are savvier than ever, and with the shaky economy they want to make sure their investment in your product or service is really going to be worth it. 

So a new approach is needed: one that matches new technology with how customers are buying today. And that’s where creating your presence as THE EXPERT in your field makes all the difference. After all, it’s not the hype that sells, it’s the person. They want help and support from someone they know, like and trust to increase the profits from every penny they invest. 

And I can show you how to be that person they know, like and trust! My proven strategies will help you make more money, get more prospects, and be more successful THIS YEAR – and the next and the next! 

Customized mentoring… with a plan

Unlike many one-on-one private coaching programs out there, your sessions are completely customized. You and your goals are unique but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a plan in place to get you where you’re going. 

As soon as you invest in this mentoring program, you get a questionnaire to fill out. This helps me get an idea of where you are at and where you want to be (and how long you think it will take to get you there). In our first session, usually within a few days of getting your questionnaire back, we start setting goals and creating a creating a plan of action. (You even get my exclusive marketing planning calendar to help!) 

Here are the simple steps of how we formulate your plan for marketing success (and you can use it whether you mentor with me or not!):

 * Find your voice. (Identify your ideal client and know how to speak with them in the way that makes your an expert.) It’s more than just naming a target market, it’s learning how to speak their language! 

* Tell your story. (Create the content that solidifies you as the go-to person for what you do.) The key is to identify what content and marketing tactics work in a sea of options and how to use it to your best advantage without reinventing the wheel! 

* Be heard. (Send out your content in the ways your ideal client will best see and hear it.)  Knowing exactly what to do here will increase your traffic & visibility, attract more clients and multiply your profits! 

Once we create your personalized plan, in additional mentoring sessions I give your all the ideas & strategies for you to turn your plan and marketing calendar into do-able, actionable, result-oriented tactics. Sounds simple, right?  Well, yes… but it may not be easy, at first! We all know learning and doing new things can be uncomfortable and sometimes daunting.  That’s why I also focus on growing your business from the inside-out.  We go deep to find out what’s holding you back and I’ll guide you with a kind firmness that helps you get out of your own way to create the business and the life you want on your terms. 

A Unique Mentoring Program for Those in Business Who Want Not Only to Prosper Financially While Working Less, But to Get Known as the ONLY Expert

• Create a low-cost, high-visibility presence that works like your own personal sales staff finding prospects for you 24/7, 365 days a year

Then you should consider mentoring one-on-one with me.

Marketing your business is a personal matter. Shouldn’t your one-on-one mentoring be personalized as well?

Look, building a powerful presence isn’t rocket science. No matter what anyone tells you, marketing is about relationships. It’s really just that simple. 

Because marketing is about relationships, there is no “one-size-fits-all” answer for everyone’s marketing challenges, just like there is no “one-size-fits-all” relationship. Your obstacles are different from anyone else’s in the world, even if what you do is being done by millions of others. That’s because your best marketing strategies are built on what you do best. And while you may be one OF a million professionals in your industry, with great marketing you can be one IN a million. 

That’s why when you mentor with me, we create marketing strategies that work for you – and only you. I know there are a ton of coaches and mentors out there who will ‘coach’ you through a pre-established program, using the same tools they use when group coaching or in their info products. That may work for some coaching topics, but it doesn’t work in marketing and business building. 

I guarantee your mentoring sessions with me are personal. I don’t come with some ‘cookie cutter approach’ for you to implement. You get all of me: my knowledge, my guidance, and my honesty to help you succeed in your business. 

I also promise you connect with me personally. You won’t deal with some apprentice coach, like some others in the field have – and you won’t be dealing with someone “practicing” their business skills on you. You’ll have access to me, a seasoned professional in marketing and PR – and you’ll be given proven systems of success for your business. 

Please know that I will not accept everyone and anyone as a mentoring client

My time is limited to only a few mentoring clients a month. So you need to know if I accept you as a mentoring client, it is because I believe that we will work well together, and because I think you have the capability to create the powerful presence you need to succeed. 

Does that mean that I turn away potential clients? I sure do. I don’t want failures any more than you do, so I am picky about who I mentor. I want to guarantee that you will succeed. 

Here’s the deal: I guarantee that I will be fully present during our meetings, and will focus on you and your marketing plans. As your mentor, I will do everything in my power to recognize, tap into, and help you get the most out of your unique strengths and capabilities. 

I promise to be honest and direct with you, always! Sometimes that means I will be blunt. I don’t sugarcoat things: it’s a waste of your time and your investment for me to do that. So even when I am a bit harsh, please, know that I have your best interests at heart. 

I will help you surface and recognize the valuable expertise you already have but may be taking for granted. AND I will be there to applaud your successes every step of the way. 

While I offer my full attention and support to you in your efforts to achieve your goals, the responsibility for results rests with you, too.  After all, I can give you the keys to the castle, but if you don’t step through the door, you won’t achieve anything! 

“I was a coach in a sea of coaches until Shannon helped.”

Prior to meeting to Shannon, I struggled with what my uniqueness was as a coach in a sea of other coaches. Beyond the normal “niching” you are constantly bombarded with, Shannon peeled back more layers to reveal how I could combine my love of coaching and cooking into a fun and unique and totally “me” brand. 

Shannon is the voice of practicality when it comes to helping you move your business forward in a cohesive way. From her expertise in publicity and marketing, to her experience as an entrepreneur, she is able to put all of the pieces of the puzzle together an a simple, easy to follow format. 

One of the great things that I love about working with Shannon is that I can come to her with a wild and creative idea, and she can take it and put it into a framework that works for me!

And I promise you more… ZERO RISK!

You can cancel your membership in this program at any time. You’re in control of this. Since I’m billing through Paypal (you can pay through your Paypal account, any major credit card, or online check), you just login to your account and cancel anytime you want. 

I recommend you plan for at least three months of mentoring when you sign-up, because success is rarely instant. It takes some time and commitment. However, you need to know that this is one of the only mentoring programs I know of where you’re the one in control of the commitment… not me! 

I’ve seen those coaching programs that require you to pay $10,000, $25,000, $100,000 or more up front. Plus you are committed whether you like it or not to a year’s worth of coaching – even if it’s not a good fit for you after all or if your circumstances change. 

Who are they kidding? It’s not for your benefit. It’s for theirs because most of their clients wouldn’t keep paying them once they realized the expert wasn’t the one doing the mentoring – or that it really is a group coaching program that uses a ‘catch-all’ type program that’s not personalized. 

In this program, I promise you’re in control. If I don’t provide you the advice you need to dramatically increase profits, you can cancel at anytime. 

What if you’re not sure if my mentoring is a good fit?

What are you not sure about? Not sure that you want more clients, more visibility, more profits this year?

Or maybe you’re wondering if it is actually worth the time and money?  Let’s talk about that. We already mentioned your options: 

* Do nothing and hope for the best. ($0) 

* Hire someone else to plan for you and then try to execute the plan yourself. (I don’t even do this service, as I want those working with me to be a success. Those who do create plans like these charge $5,000 to $20,000 for this service, but don’t even guarantee anything.) 

* Hire someone else to plan and execute for you. ($15,000 to $195,000 a year, depending on who you hire and what you want done.) 

* Read a book or buy a DIY info product, then try to figure it all out yourself. ($15 to $2000+ and that doesn’t include the time you spend reading, watching, listening, as well as the time trying to figure it all out.) 

Or you can… 
Mentor with me and get structure, support, ideas, feedback, and connections to build your powerful presence. (Less than $700 a month.) 

“I earned $24,000 in 13 minutes, (a record for me)”

By connecting with Shannon Cherry’s strategic steps, your business will give you a much HIGHER return in satisfaction, productivity, and profitability. 

You will be inspired, encouraged, and absolutely delighted by how quickly her process works in attracting plenty of new ideal clients, media, positive publicity and all the opportunities that you can handle. I wished I had called her sooner. 

Using just one of her strategies I earned $24,000 in 13 minutes, (which is a record for me) and landed a much coveted interview. Thank you Shannon, you’re simply outstanding.
