The 2-Hour Turnaround: Focus - Selling Your Services

What's hardest for you about selling your services? Come turn your biggest challenge into an alluring possibility. How? By releasing fear, doubt, and frustration, and tapping into core states of power and creativity. All participants will experience a personal epiphany. As a result, the group conversation will provide exceptional insights and support. You'll leave with a fresh outlook and invigorated motivation.

This is a new format I am testing for broader release, and for March 31 I am offering all three sessions for free as a way to develop my facilitation design.

                "Problems cannot be solved by the
                same level of thinking that created them."
                – Albert Einstein

                ......................................................................

In order to not only "think outside the box," but to completely dissolve it, you've got to be willing to stop thinking altogether, and feel for a moment instead.

How does this work? The simple fact is, a limiting feeling filters your perceptions. For example, when you're stuck in frustration, you can see only obstacles. If you release the frustration first and tap into core states like power and creativity, things become easier. Instantly.

Oddly, the universe seems to agree, often providing extra support from places you never expected. That's because when you release a limiting feeling, you release the perceptual filters as well. And you start seeing the opportunities that have always been right in front of you.

Are you going to have to "share your feeeelings?"

No. This isn't group therapy. You're not going to be required to share anything personal or try to figure out why you feel what you feel. Instead, we're going to employ a very direct and practical strategy.

• First phase, the obstacles. We'll start with introductions, then jump into conversation on this session's topic: Getting Things Done. You'll get to talk for a little while about the problems you're having, and what seems to be causing them. You'll be among good company, with other Bizniks sharing similar problems.
• Second phase, deep diving. After we've talked for a little while, we'll enter a phase where you will do your own internal reflection, silently. I'll help you identify a central feeling state to work with, one that holds the problem in captivity. Then I'll lead you in a powerfully transformative sensory visualization process. You'll release the limiting feeling and discover that it drops spontaneously into a core state that is empowering and resourceful.
• Third phase, creating a new reality. Now comes the fun part. You'll bring the resources, the clear thinking, the creativity of your new, core state back to the original conversation. And you'll discover in conversation with your peers how easily "problems" have become possibilities. By the time you leave, you'll have new insights and action steps you can apply immediately.

We'll reserve a few minutes at the end to talk about how you can apply what you've learned to other areas of your life and business.

An amazing opportunity to tap the synergy of the group.

Working with a group opens up a valuable opportunity to share your journey with others. Your inner reflections are more powerful in community, and your conversations and insights build on one another. The positive energy is contagious. Synergy rules in a group like this!

An added bonus: The best kind of networking there is.

You'll be sharing a breakthrough experience with several other Bizniks. There is no better way to establish a relationship of trust than to go on a positive journey with someone. At the end of your experience, you will find it easy to build on your relationship, creating long-term friends, associates, and colleagues along the way.

LOCATION: We'll be meeting downtown in the Park Place Building, in the small conference room in the Accord Associates suite on the 20th floor. The building is conveniently located by entrance and exit ramps to and from I-5 in both directions. (The mark on the Google map is misleading. If you zoom in, you can see a building on the SE corner of 6th and University. That's Park Place.) And because the event is midday, you shouldn't have any problem with traffic.

The most affordable parking is at Pacific Place Garage, Sixth and Pine. There's always space, and you can get three hours for $8, (or four hours for $4 in the evening). The most plentiful street parking is up the hill on the other side of I-5. And there are many lots in the area. And of course, Metro is a great way to get downtown, too.

Your host for this event has been investigating the structure of the feeling mind for 15 years. Out of that research he is pioneering the new field of psychotopology. He is also trained in group facilitation and received his MA in Whole Systems Design from Antioch with an emphasis on facilitating transformative learning experiences. You are in good hands. Here is what a few Bizniks have said through compliments in the past few months:

"Joe is firmly grounded in walking his talk... He truly embodies what he teaches." – Jane Blinka

"You are a great facilitator ... you set realistic boundries, clear instructions and encourage me to participate fully just by who you are at each event." – Dawn Renee Mallory

"Would definitely recommend folks to go to his events." – Becca Campbell

"Following a single introductory session with Joe, I was able to accomplish what I wanted to accomplish related to work without feeling bogged down with my internal doubts and feelings. AND I did a good job!" – Donna Angevine

"Having met Joe the first time at a recent event he hosted, I could clearly see the passion he has for helping people. He is a natural at connecting with individuals. and taking you through the process painlessly and completely. I feel I get a pretty good bead on people from first impressions, and with Joe, that impression was warm, friendly and damn good at what he does." – Bob Dunn

"Joe is a magician with the flair of a clairvoyant." – Patricia Klingler
