Masterminders, the new Marketing for Introverts series begins this week both by phone (Tuesday morning) and live in the Training Room at the SoHo Marketing Institute (Thursday morning; see the Events page for details).

Dear fellow Masterminders:

I have a few classes coming up that I'd like to make you aware of. Please share them with professional women, age 45 and up who'd like to learn how to have that difficult conversation or how to confront someone, without being confrontational.

For those of you who don't know what my business is: I help professional women turn conflict into conversation. I'm a conflict coach and trainer.

These workshops are local-in person sessions in the Portland/Vancouver area.

Thanks so much!

Hi Fellow MasterMinders - 

Hi Masterminders,

How does your website rate?

Here's a cool tool I found that rates your website, and tells you what needs to be done to improve your score:

Have fun!

Warmly,

Masterminders,

Due to the catastrophic failure of MaestroConference's system, as of this moment, no more Mastermind calls will be held on that system. The NEW phone number and access code is posted on the Call Info page in the membersite.

Please note that this new information is for the month of October ONLY, as we are testing a new system that should be ready to launch by November 1.

Thank you for your patience and support, Masterminders!

Hi gang,

Here's the link to the headline analyzer tool that Victoria shared with us months ago, and that I use regularly:

It has REALLY helped me determine which headlines to lead with, and which to rethink. Enjoy!

Warmly,
Ronnie

First of all, Gary and I would like to thank Ronnie and Erin for all of their efforts putting together last weekend's SMM annual workshop--we enjoyed meeting all of you and were completely blown away by all the great suggestions you had for growing our business. For those Masterminders who were not there, we hope to meet with you either on one of the weekly phone calls or in person.

Many of you expressed interest in learning how to become better public speakers, so we have decided to offer a workshop for the SMM group and affiliates of the SMM's. This is an 8-week, 2 hours per session, highly interactive, guaranteed-to-make-you-a-better speaker, workshop. We are currently running a workshop at Clark College on Monday evenings, but we are not sure evenings work for those of you interested in taking the class. We are planning to hold the next workshop at the SoHo Marketing Institute, 953 Officers Row, Vancouver, WA 98661. Therefore, we need your help!

Could you please respond and let us know:
  1. Your level of interest
  2. What day/time works best for you

We are offering this workshop at a special price of only $349 to SMM members (regularly $499). If that seems like a lot of money, ask yourself if your fear of speaking to groups of people to help promote your business is stopping you from growing your business. Are you worth the investment?

Thank you for your valued feedback!

Beth and Gary Mack
