Is Coach Curt a Quitter?

Hi !fname:
Except for the clients that I have already
made commitments to, I won't be taking on
any new business the month of October.
I've got to regroup. Why?
Because I am failing?
No!
I've had more success than most. I've
won many awards and contests over the past
7 years, some as recent as a month ago, -
- but I am not satisfied.
Look for me in November.
Why this drastic step!?!
In part, it has to do with two courses I've taken over
the last few weeks:
#1. "The Ultimate Copywriting Crash Course" by David Garfinkel.

Its not like I am a beginner. I've been doing public
speaking for 40 years, and writing for many years, with
respectable results. BUT - - - I am going to tuck away
what I have learned in this course and sneak off to a
cave for a month and re-work my whole marketing strategy.
#2. "The Renegade Breakthrough Mentoring Program" by Ann Sieg,
and Mike Klingler.

It is always easier to do things the right way, rather
than to do them over. Although I am teaching my clients
the most effective methods of marketing, I need to go back,
practice everything I am preaching, and lay a new foundation
for marketing my coaching business for the days ahead.
Having coached hundreds of clients, I wouldn't suggest
this strategy to anyone else.
What I can say is you can & should invest in the above courses
now - rather than later, so you build all your marketing material
and strategies the right way - so you don't have to take a step like
this later!
Invest in this now, and I'll throw in some free coaching
when I emerge out of my cave in November sometime!!!

PS: PS: Someone said to me, "Curt, this is really bad timing!"
What they were referring to is the great exposure I've been
getting within the Renegade Community - take a look at
September's issue of Renegade Professional News:
http://budurl.com/rpronews909 (Ann Sieg's article on me
about 1/3 down the page.)
These two courses are professional grade. I highly suggest
them for YOUR business if you are looking for your business
to become full time executive level income.

Coaching for Leadership - What about Bobs?
One of my favorite movies is "What about Bob?" It is more real than you might think (I've done 20+ years of counseling.) Anyway - here is the whole article - Coaching for Leadership
Here is a list of BOBS:
“Anyone can do this…”
“This is the next Microsoft…”
“This product sells itself…”
“Our endorsement by Mr. Bigshot / Mrs. Celebrity ensures…”
“You only need 3 others who…”
“There is no selling…”
“You do the work once and…”
PLEASE add more BOBs in the comments!
Online Business Optimization - 5 Tune Up Tools
Like with any new culture (surfing or online business) most of us we need to focus on online business optimization. Here are 5 essential tools that will optimize any online business, or business that markets online.
1. Attraction Marketing.
2. Sending out Cards using off-line mail.
3. Healthy Foundations. Sbi - Site Build It.
4. Contact Management.
5. Coaching.
Surfing looked easy. Rent a board and jump in the ocean. It almost got us killed. After wasting hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars in our first online business and marketing ventures, we also learned the hard way to invest in the coaching and tools for online business optimization.
If you were hoping to find a few quick tweaks to make your old school marketing methods optimize your online business, sorry if I burst your bubble - but maybe I saved you from drifting out sea never to be heard from again.

Mike Klingler is Prophetic
In the re-opening of Renegade Professional, Founder and Guru Mike Klinger is offereing some free training on content creation for those wanting to check it out. In the "Thank You" page for listening to some free training, Mike GIVES away MORE free training, and it is this I wanted to point out.
He and Ann Sieg give away some stuff, including 3 video trainings on the how and why of Twitter. He did this video training early this year and showed the growth of Twitter through January of 2009 where it grew to almost 6 millions users.
He states in that video that it is going to continue to shoot up very rapidly. He uses a tool - http://www.compete.com to show the stats.
I went back to compete.com on 15 June 2009 and was impressed with Mike's prediction.
It has shot up to the levels he said it would - May 2009 Twitter had almost 20 million users!
Mike has a unique ability not just to see a trend (there are a few others that can do that,) BUT also teach marketers what it means and how to simply capatalize on the trends in internet marketing.
Mike's baby - Renegade is opening its doors again after a very successful launch just a few weeks ago. I am personally assisting others on this journey that Mike Klingler and Ann Sieg are leading us on. Join the journey to personal freedom we are on!
(If you want to see the Thank You page referred to above, here is the page with the free training. Fill out the form and it will take you to the Thank You page. Lots of links in this post - but if nothing else - be sure to get all the training given away here.)
Coach Curt's interview with Ann Sieg
In light of the recent phenomenal launch of Renegade Professional, it was interesting to go back and listen to the interview I did with Ann Sieg last year. It is a joy to see the things we talked about come about. Having worked closely with Ann for a few years as she was building the foundation of her current success, we discussed some of the core values and issues that cause destinies to be fulfilled.
