Should you invest in a $10K+ business/marketing coaching program or course Reader?
I see many high-ticket coaching programs now that sell a big promise, but often don't deliver.
Some of those high-ticket coaches are even getting labeled as scammers and getting into legal trouble.
Not all coaching programs are bad. I've invested in business coaches in the past and they've been helpful in different ways. Some much better than others.
So if you're deciding whether or not to put your hard-earned money into a coach or course, then ask yourself:
1) What are you actually wanting to achieve? Is it strategy or implementation, or both?
2) Does the program offer just coaching, or is it coaching + implementation?
Mindset work and strategy will only get you so far. At some point, you'll need to execute, so if the coach/consultant can provide systems/frameworks/done-for-you options, that will help with this.
I offer both:
- option A: 1-on-1 marketing coaching
- option B: monthly content coaching + done-for-you content creation
Option B costs more than just the coaching on its own, but I also ensure that I help my clients implement the strategies that we come up with.
So if you're considering a program right now, check-in with yourself - Do you feel that they are giving you enough tools to succeed?

2. How to grow your twitter audience
I'm finding myself spending more time on Twitter, and less time on Facebook these days. Twitter forces us to be more concise, and to just publish what really matters!
But how do you actually build an audience there? You can start by following these tips.
3. How NFTs Became Art, and Everything Became an NFT - CoinDesk
"It’s almost impossible to keep track of the latest NFT developments. To note just a few: The cartoon frog HomerPepe sold for $320,000; Grimes sold an NFT bundle for $6 million; an NFT tweet (a tweet!) from Mark Cuban sold for $952; Lindsay Lohan now mints NFTs; Shawn Mendes hawks NFT guitars; people are selling genesis tweets; and by the time you finished reading this paragraph, perhaps we’ll get news that President Biden is dropping stimulus checks via NFTs."
If you haven't heard about Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) yet, well they're blowing up in a big way. Consider this your introduction.

Parting Thoughts
You've probably heard it before - the biggest investment that you can make is to invest in yourself.
Having said that, you need to do your home work and make sure that you're making smart decisions and work with people who are credible and that you can trust.
Talk to you next week.
