Attention Female Business Owners! This Information Is For You ONLY if:

• You’re ready for your business to start making money…and soon.
  
  
• You’re tired of watching your business struggle financially despite your hard work and determination.
  
  
• You’re an intelligent, determined and capable entrepreneur who just needs the right tools to succeed.

Do you LOVE your business? If you had to choose one word to describe your entrepreneurial style, what would it be? Passionate? Determined? Resolute? Tenacious? Are you driven by your vision but frustrated by a lack of profit in your business?

If you believe it’s time you put that passion, determination, resolution and tenacity to work for you so that your business can start making the money you need it to, keep reading …

From the desk of Michele DeKinder-Smith

Does any of this sound familiar?

• You absolutely love and believe in what you do. You eat, sleep and breathe your business – but for some reason, it’s not performing financially. What if there was a way to turn that passion into profit?
• You have so many great ideas, it’s sometimes tough to know which one to pursue. What if you had a simple tool that would ensure profitability by helping you focus and prioritize?
• You feel frustrated because you’re not seeing a financial return proportionate to the amount of hard work you’re putting in. What if you could learn a system to work smarter, so that your hard work did pay off, and soon?
• You want to know how this cycle of big work and little money is going to end – and when! What if there was a way to end it, NOW?
• You feel alone, like nobody else is going through this. What if there was an opportunity to meet a whole group of like-minded women with whom you could share ideas and support?

 

I’ve got great news for you: You're in the right place.

You may not know it, but you are not alone. About 1 in 3 businesswomen are in the same spot as you are – smart, determined, dedicated and frustrated. They’re working hard, dreaming big, and earning small. About 9 out of 10 women in this group are dissatisfied with cash flow, and many are unhappy with their revenue, business costs or personal income drawn through their company.

Nobody talks about it – discussing your financial struggles and frustration at networking events obviously isn’t the ideal way to get someone to hire you – but many other women are facing the same struggles -- and they’re looking for answers, just like you are.

You had the courage to start your own business, and you have stuck with it despite the obstacles you’ve faced. Your passion and determination are inspirational to all business owners, and success really can be just around the corner – as long as you get the solutions you need so you can accelerate your learning curve and enjoy more profit and financial security. You don’t have to keep beating your head against the wall.

You can go from Passionate but Profitless to Focused and Fulfilled.

I’m Michele DeKinder-Smith, and as the Founder and CEO of Jane Out of the Box, it’s my passion in life to help women like you – business owners – succeed. Jane Out of the Box is an online resource dedicated to the women entrepreneur community. Based on several years’ worth of research – during which we’ve interviewed more than 2,500 female entrepreneurs – Jane Out of the Box provides varied information, including articles, helpful links and a free assessment for business owners to determine their entrepreneurial type (and therefore their strengths and challenges). My first business, Linkage Research and Consulting (more on that later), made close to $2 million in revenue in 2009, while requiring fewer than 40 hours of my time in a typical week.

I’m not telling you all this to make myself sound super-successful. In fact, before I figured out how to make my business work for me, I had $100,000 in credit card debt from my business. I had to sell my house, and I was seriously questioning my own skills and abilities.  I’m sharing the truth of how it was for me, because I want you to know that I completely understand what you’re going through now. I understand the passion behind your dream. I understand the stress of not making enough money to run your business. I understand the loneliness of not being able to really say what’s going on.  And I understand the solutions you need to turn your business around.

Take a moment and think about your future. Where do you want your business to be? Where do you want to be?

Do you want to breathe easier and make decent money? Do you want to enjoy work you love and freedom from traditional employment?  My team and I can help you get there.

We can teach you how to create a plan of action that will turn your business around and have it gaining momentum, starting immediately.

So how do you do that?

You Get Real.

When you Get Real, you see all the Bad Stuff (BS) for what it really is. Then, you move it out of the way so it stops taking up so much of your mind space.  It’s absolutely the ONLY way to stop feeling frustrated, stop worrying about when your business will be able to support you like you want it to, and start moving your business to where you want it to be.

What will Getting Real do for you?

It will:

• Empower you to take decisive action.
  
  
• Show once and for all IF and HOW the business you are building is capable of making the level of income you desire.
• Ensure you are investing your energy in the right areas, so you’re not spinning your wheels.
  
  
• Help you get to the bottom of what’s holding you (and your business) back.
  
  
• Strip away the Bad Stuff so you can tap into your true power and potential and keep self-doubt at bay.

Getting Real is absolutely essential to your success. But it’s just the beginning. You also need to:

• Get a Plan – develop goals, and create plans for meeting each goal.
  
  
• Get Moving – take decisive action toward meeting your goals.
  
  

You may have tried this before. Maybe you’ve considered your strengths and challenges, examined your business concept and even developed some awesome goals. If you were meeting those goals, you wouldn’t still be reading – you’d be making the money you need and watching your dreams come true. So many women in your shoes (including me, when I was there!) just keep soldiering on, believing that eventually the business will turn the corner.  Some never get there, and eventually they close up shop.  The luckier half, those who make it, walk around with powerful life lessons and information gleaned from having tried and failed and tried again, until they found what works.  But they don’t share that information – because they are so relieved to have those times behind them.

But now, you have a way to shortcut that entire process and reach success earlier, with less trial and error, and with greater confidence. How? By spending just 30 days learning from two successful, professional women entrepreneurs who’ve been in your shoes and made it through to create happy lives and financial success.

We’ll teach you the very specific, very crucial steps toward making your dream reality.  We’ll be honest and tell it like it is.  And we’ll bring you the benefit of our research and experience coaching women just like you.  I am confident you’ll learn more in these 30 days than others will learn in an entire year or more.

It’s not your fault your business isn’t making enough money for survival. My research has revealed 5 paths that lead to the position you’re in:

1. Having a craft or skill but no experience with many of the activities necessary to run a successful business (in fact, this is the case with 40% of the “new businesses” in your category).
2. Starting your businesses undercapitalized or acquiring more debt than your business, with current revenues, can comfortably carry.
3. Not charging enough for your services because you undervalue the work your company performs.
4. Trying to accomplish too much all at once. Lack of focus makes it more difficult to drive income in any of the areas.
5. A change in something outside your control, such as the industry or the cost structure.

 

“Get Real. Get a Plan. Get Moving.” 

We’re going to share with you information we’ve obtained during the past several years – and when we do, you will embark on a personal journey that will reveal as much about you as it does about your business. In doing so, you will know exactly what you need to know to develop yourself as the strongest businesswoman you can be, and then to develop a solid, working action plan that will get your business in the black – starting now.

For this teleclass, I’ve partnered with Joy Chudacoff, ICF, PCC, and Founder of Smart Women Smart Solutions. Joy started Smart Women Smart Solutions to help women everywhere create extraordinary lives – both at work and at home. As a Professional Certified Coach, Motivational Speaker, highly skilled group leader and the author of Reflections, a “buzz generating” weekly ezine, she has helped thousands of women design the lives they choose to live. Her passion, her purpose and her business: helping women realize their dreams and achieve better ways of living.

Joy has been an entrepreneur for more than 21 years and during her journey, she has come face to face several times with having passion for her business but not enjoying the profits she was hoping for while working (as she likes to phrase it), “from 8 to faint!”  Joy will share with you her journey, as well as the proven, time-tested solutions that took her from “surviving” to “thriving” in her business. 

As a wife and mother of 2, Joy inhabits a world that requires balancing business with home life. She works with women one-to-one (coaching) and in groups (Success Circles) to help them define success on their own terms, identify outlets for their creativity, develop businesses, and manage careers that are anchored in their most important values.

Just like I am, Joy is determined to help you succeed. And with her coaching background, she is in a unique position to coach you through this challenging patch.

This sounds great Michele and Joy, so how much is it going to cost me?

Remember, we’ve been where you are now. There was a time when we watched every expenditure, practically a penny at a time.  We lived with business debt hanging over our heads, creating stress and sometimes even problems with our spouses.  So we know you simply can’t afford a huge price tag on a course like this when you’re working so hard just to pay the bills and keep your business running.

On the other hand, you’ve got to know that there’s an end to this rough patch. With the right tools, you can turn your business around – and working together with you, Joy and I can give you a huge jumpstart in just 30 days. Imagine how good it will feel to start taking big steps toward financial stability.

Just like we’ll be teaching in our course, you’ll determine your pricing based on what your market needs and how much you need to make to move your business forward. Balancing these two things, Joy and I are committed to offering this course at the lowest possible price. We’ve walked in your shoes and we want you to benefit from our experience and that of the other 2,500 women business owners I’ve interviewed. 

That’s why we’re offering this course at half of our normal pricing – just $497. 

That may feel like a “no brainer” to you – or it may feel like a leap of faith, depending on how serious your financial struggles are right now.

This is a “No Brainer”, Sign Me Up Now!

It’s time to see the profits you deserve. It’s time to learn what you need to know so you can create income and stop worrying about whether your business will be afloat next month.  It’s time to start living a life of success, as you define it!

(Here's another way to look at it – how many new clients would it take to pay that $497 investment back? One? Two? If your answer is more than that, you DEFINITELY need our Profit Puzzles class, which, alone, will help you propel your business forward.  You're going to walk away with a plan that will EASILY bring you several new clients and probably a lot more.)

Are you ready to register, or do you have a few more questions?

Because I know how tough it can be to struggle with cash flow, I want you to feel comfortable in making this investment. I want you to feel confident that your investment will pay off, and that you will be able to use the information you learn to start making money.

Q: You are obviously successful – but so much has changed since you started your business – so how can you help me get past this?
A: I’ve made it my business to keep up on business. Both Joy and I make sure that each year, we budget for ongoing business learning and coaching.  My ongoing research of more than 2,500 women entrepreneurs makes me an expert on what it takes to make it. Believe it or not, most of the female business owners we’ve interviewed have been in your shoes at some time. Consider it a phase. Many of the people we’ve interviewed had to come up with their plans the hard way, but we’re offering you an opportunity to learn from people who have been there and who have gotten past that stage.

Q: I feel like I’m so busy just trying to keep my head above water. I don’t know if I have time to sit through 4 calls! 
A: This course will save you so much time in the long run, consider it a small investment for a huge future return – and the future starts within 30 days. We’re going to provide you with some strategies that will help you focus your energy and resources so your time is better spent from now on.

Q: My business is just young – that’s why it hasn’t started making money yet. I’m sure it’s just a matter of time until I succeed. Do I really need to take this course?
A: We know your determination will pay off. Wouldn’t you rather it paid off sooner? The information you’ll learn on this call will help you get your business on track and picking up momentum at a rate much faster than if you just wait it out.
