You are listening to the 500th episode of the podcast this week. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning, listening along for over five years, or you’re a new friend here, I honor and appreciate you for showing up.

 

As I personally celebrate 500 episodes, close to two million downloads of the show, and the reach it has set up for me to influence and empower thousands of women founders around the world, I want to let you in on a secret that has helped me generate millions upon millions of dollars in my business.

If you think this has required complicated marketing tactics and obsessively trying to figure out how to grow my audience, think again. Sure, that can help, but what truly works for raking in millions isn’t fancy, trendy, glamorous, or even particularly fun. However, if you want to set up a financial fortress like I have, it’s necessary. And it’s called showing up.

 

Join me this week as I show you how you can make millions as a founder if you’re willing to show up for your dream. I’m walking you through my podcasting journey to exemplify the power of consistent dedication so you too can blow your own mind with what practicing showing up can do for your bank account, your life, and your future.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • The power of consistent dedication.
  • Why you need to start practicing showing up as a strategy to drive millions for your business.
  • What’s been required of me to show up to podcast 500 weeks in a row.
  • Why you might be struggling to sustainably scale your company.
  • How to stop questioning your dream of generating millions in your business.

I talk to many business owners who are in the process of shifting their business models from a one-to-one model to one where they have the ability to sell to many people at once. This is one of the classic ways we scale up a service or knowledge-based company, and lots of entrepreneurs are trying to figure out how to package up what they do to offer to multiple people at once.

 

For some reason, in the process of making this shift, I watch brilliant women founders make the leap of logic that they must now become excellent digital or social media marketers. They believe this is the only way to rake in hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the only way to build a million-dollar business selling scaled-up services.

 

Keep reading

 

Many of you have fantastic networks and have always been great at relational marketing, but you’re struggling with digital marketing, and you can’t figure out how those entrepreneurs advertising on Instagram or LinkedIn are getting it to work so amazingly for them. So this raises the question: is it possible to market effectively without resorting to social media?

 

Join me on the podcast this week as I reassure you that it’s totally possible to dramatically increase your program sales without social media. We’re exploring and debunking why so many leaders believe they need to utilize digital marketing or social media to scale, and 3 things you can do instead.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • Why so many founders believe they have to use social media to market their leveraged offers.
  • The sneaky ways we discount the revenue we’ve made.
  • 3 things you can do instead of marketing your programs through social media.
  • How to get clear on what’s in your lane, and what isn’t.
  • Why you don’t need social media to rake in hundreds of thousands of dollars.
  • How to market your programs without social media.

Why are you feeling hesitant about raising your prices? If this is something you’ve been wanting to do but haven’t yet, you’ve likely been told that it’s because you have a scarcity mindset around your business. While this messaging often comes from a place of good intention, it’s actually totally off the mark.

 

You probably have legitimate questions and reasons for why you’re not raising your prices. Being told we have to cultivate an abundant mindset is just one of the ways women’s thoughts are weaponized against us because if you want to charge premium prices but aren’t doing it, your mindset is not the problem here.

 

Keep reading

 

Instead, there’s often more systemic issues happening inside your business. If you want to charge premium prices, it’s because you know profit is power. The more profit you have, the more resources you have to invest in making your vision real. So today, I’m introducing you to the best tool for guaranteeing and growing your profit.

 

Listen in this week as I show you why charging premium prices is a positioning problem that needs to be addressed and solved, rather than a mindset problem. I’m walking you through the three disciplines of premium pricing and serving high-end clients, so you can scale your cash, influence, and autonomy.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • The best tool to guarantee and grow your profit.
  • How the most common advice women receive about raising prices is untrue and used against us.
  • Why not raising your prices is not a mindset issue.
  • The 3 disciplines of premium pricing and serving high-end clients.
  • What charging premium pricing is going to require of you.

Are you overpricing or underpricing your offers? This is a question that has many of my clients spinning in circles, completely confused and lost. Figuring out how much to charge is a really important decision any CEO or founder is going to make, and pricing strategy is something that comes up a lot in my work.

 

In a world where business rules have been written by men, how do women like us create enormous success on our terms? For so long, our contributions have been undervalued and overlooked. The gender pay gap is real, and the numbers simply don’t lie.

 

Keep reading

 

Women across the board are underpricing their offers and under-earning. So the advice we’re given is, “Charge your worth.” The intent behind owning our worth seems great at face value and there are instances where keeping this in mind is effective. But I consider this to be somewhat troubling advice, and I’m breaking down why on this episode.

 

Join me this week as I show you why we need to understand the difference between charging our worth and charging our value. You’ll discover why value creation is the name of the game, and how to understand, claim, and articulate the value of what you have to offer.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • Why the common advice women are given is troubling.
  • The intent behind the advice of charging what we’re worth.
  • Why your worth is infinite and nothing changes that.
  • How to understand, claim, and articulate the value of your offers.
  • The difference between charging what we’re worth and charging what our value is.
  • How this distinction makes all the difference as you build your seven-figure business.

The most important emotional state for entrepreneurial achievement is not motivation, commitment, or dedication. It’s willingness. When you cultivate within yourself a state of willingness, you are equipping yourself with the emotional juice required to transform at a deep level. 

 

Willingness allows you to reinvent your future one project, one experience, and one result at a time. However, many of you aren’t currently in that state of willingness, and this episode will help you change that.

 

Keep reading

 

Women entrepreneurs often have deep commitment to their goals, but that’s not enough. Commitment is the silent pact you make within yourself, an internal decision to go for your dream. It matters, but willingness matters more. 

 

In this episode, find out what willingness is, why it matters, and three steps to cultivate it for yourself. You’ll discover why this emotional state is so critical for entrepreneurial achievement and the tremendous impact it will have on your business. I’m sharing what willingness has done and will do for my business, and where to go to work on this with me and my team.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • The difference between having a vision and making your vision real.
  • What willingness is.
  • Why strategies and tactics aren’t enough to create results.
  • How to be willing to face the fallout of your actions, good or bad. 
  • Why willingness is so imperative for entrepreneurs.
  • How to cultivate greater willingness.

As women entrepreneurs, we live and breathe in the results economy. We are not paid for the amount of time and effort that we put into a project. We are compensated based on the value that we create in the marketplace and the tangible results we create for other people. And when we put half-done work out into the world, we’re not compensated at all.

 

Over here at Safi Media, we’re all about creating tangible value for female founders. Now, what we’ve come to realize is that work that is in progress creates little to no value in the marketplace. Work that is done is what creates value for yourself and other people.

 

Keep reading

 

Because I and so many of my clients operate in this results economy, understanding the difference between fake results and real results is a massive gamechanger. We’re not here to squander our hours of effort by putting work out half-finished. So this week, I’m discussing how to actually get things done so you see real results.

 

If you can align your efforts and intentions with real results, your level of success, your bottom line, and the impact you have will increase exponentially without burning out, and who doesn’t want that? In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the difference between fake results and real results, how to distinguish between the two in your business, and how to create real results for your business.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • Why, if you put half-done work into the world, you get fake results.
  • What fake results look like in your business and why they make us think we’re being productive.
  • Why the only way to get real results is to put your completed work into the marketplace.
  • How we help our clients to bring done energy to their work, instead of spinning in perfectionism.
  • Why tolerating unclosed loops and unfinished work is sending the wrong messages to your team and your clients.
  • What you can do to move past your fake results and start creating completed work that yields real results in the marketplace

Apr 5, 2022

About 18 months ago, I was having a conversation with a wise mentor of mine about the vision I had for my company and how I saw our position in the world. It was big, exciting, and I had confidence and trusted myself, but I kept butting up against a ceiling in terms of my own ability.

 

This is when my mentor said, “Eleanor, unlocking the next level of your vision isn’t about what you do. It’s about becoming the woman who is capable of having those things.” That conversation sparked a quest inside me to do an even deeper level of personal development work in order to bring my vision to life.

 

Keep reading

 

Personal development is a journey that never stops, and I realized the inner work I needed to do to become that woman, I needed to do a different type of inner work. I needed to take my good emotional resilience skills and make them even greater. And if you want to do the same, one thing you’ll need to do is balance great insight with listening to yourself.

 

So, in today’s podcast, I’m introducing you to a powerful creative, artistic, inspiring voice in the field of personal development: Tina Lifford. Tina is an author, a successful actress, and the founder of the Inner Fitness Project, and she’s a queen whose voice, leadership, and ideas have always inspired me, and she’s here to inspire you as well.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • The emotional resilience required to be a visionary CEO.
  • The most important inner fitness skills we need to build up.
  • How we lie to ourselves by believing we need to have all the answers in order to do something successfully.
  • What it means to become a woman who is capable of having a business that can change the world.
  • The weight of believing you’re alone in pursuit of your vision, and why crewing up is the answer.
  • What changes when you use curiosity as a tool to communicate with that which is guiding your mission.
  • How to unleash the true depth of your purpose and vision into the world through the vehicle of your business.

As women founders and entrepreneurs, we’ve been fed a lot of advice about the power of staying open-minded. We’re told to stay open to external feedback, ways of doing things, and challenges that come our way. Being a good leader, we’re told, means staying open.

 

I’ve spent the first part of my life, as I’m sure you have, honing my skills on openness. It’s one of my core values, and the periods in my business and personal development where I’ve been completely open to ideas and stimulus from other people have served me extremely well.

 

Keep reading

 

But what I’ve discovered of late is that there is power in intentionally closing down and being non-receptive. The notion of closing down gets a bad rap, and while there’s definitely a time and place for being open, purposefully choosing to be non-receptive is more valuable than you think, and I’m showing you why.

 

If you often find yourself overwhelmed or distracted to the point where you can’t hear yourself think, or you identify as a sensitive person and you’re ready to find a new way to protect your energy and creativity, learning the skill of being non-receptive is key. On this episode, I’m showing you what I’ve come to realize about the power of being non-receptive, and my top strategies for practicing this.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • How being open-minded can serve us well at the beginning of our business journey.
  • Why I believe the advice given to women about staying open is stupid 75% of the time.
  • What I’ve come to realize about the power of being non-receptive.
  • How I’ve learned to consciously hone my skill of being non-receptive.
  • Why giving ourselves permission to be non-receptive is so valuable.
  • My strategies for purposefully being non-receptive.

This week on the podcast, I’m rolling back one of my most significant episodes to date where I share my coaching philosophy. By the end of this episode, you’ll have a much clearer idea of how to apply my teachings to a deeper context and how they relate to your own business.

 

Many of you listening sell knowledge and transformation through your expertise, whether it’s as a coach, consultant, author, or podcaster. And one thing I often see in these areas is entrepreneurs rushing into packaging and marketing something just so they can get it out into the world as fast as possible. However, this never produces the most important result your business needs: maximum value for your clients. This is where your philosophy comes into play.

 

Keep Reading

 

My hope here is to help you discover the core philosophies that underpin your own offers and what you’re putting out into the world. This work will give you the kind of powerful grounding that allows you to grow and show up from a place of alignment, authenticity, and purpose in your business.

 

Tune in this week as I walk you through what a coaching philosophy is and the two pillars of my coaching philosophy for women entrepreneurs. I’m sharing why having an outlined philosophy is so important, and how to start getting clear on what yours might be.

 

Today on the Power + Presence + Position Podcast:

 

  • The importance of getting clear on your business’s promised land.
  • What a jewel business is and how building one will transform how you grow.
  • Why growing a business without a clear philosophy never leads to aligned results.
  • The difference between philosophy, values, and strategy.
  • My personal coaching philosophy and how it links to my broader work.
  • Where to start with in building self-efficacy and confidence in your abilities as an entrepreneur.

Creating a group coaching program is a powerful way to multiply your income and impact, all while leveraging your time. Meanwhile, enrolling in a group coaching program is an amazing opportunity to learn new skills, perspectives and forge productive working relationships with smart people who share your passion.

I have run group coaching programs and participated in them with amazing outcomes in both. However, these programs are not all created equal, and this is where things get complicated.

Keep reading

In today’s episode, we’re exploring one of the most powerful forces driving the global economy: women buyers. Whether you sell B2B, B2C, high-end furniture, software as a service, life coaching, or books, the chances are that women are often making the decision to buy from you or not.

Knowing how to connect with, build trust with, and respect women buyers is really important if you want to sell to them. And trust me, with a total global spending power of $18 trillion, equivalent to the world’s second biggest economy, you need to know how to sell to women buyers. However, while we have a lot of money, we’re also not necessarily an easy market to sell to.

Around the fall of last year, I started thinking more deeply about how I was using my time and if there were better ways to spend it. The kind of leader I wanted to be was one who could serve her mission, team, and community at the highest level, but my current calendar didn’t reflect that.

To show up as the energized and connected leader I wanted to be, I needed to make some shifts to how I was spending and scheduling my time. I know so many of you are feeling drained, overwhelmed, or exhausted by your calendars, and I can totally relate.
