Smart women entrepreneurs come to me for targeted coaching on business skills they need NOW. I offer targeted coaching in the form of ebooks, group training, and individual coaching to get to the heart of the problem and offer practical, immediate solutions. Some examples of the help I offer are in developing online profiles at social networking sites, developing contact management systems that work for my individual clients, and showing them how to maximize email marketing for their businesses.

  “I have truly enjoyed my time with Betsy and found her services to be an invaluable tool to my business. I know that if there is ANYTHING that my business needs Betsy is just a phone call away. I eagerly wait for her blog to enter my mailbox each week; with the knowledge that she is always writing on a topic that is meant just for me. Her topics are always on the current pulse of the industry and offer real and useable ways for me to improve the structure, function and my way of thinking. Give Betsy a try – she is simply a joy to work with!”   [less]

  Now this is the person you need to go to when you need...well, actually, anything! I worked with Betsy and her Power Hour service and received so much value from the time we spent. And it's not really just an hour; she goes back and researches your questions, and writes up a follow up email that has next steps clearly written out for you.

  And, she's fun and knows everyone! Seattle Examiner agrees, they just gave her her own blog. Yea, that's what I'm talkin about! Betsy's the go to girl if you need to jump start anything. Be well, Kelleen   [less]

• Preparing for a Convention

  If you have a business, then you likely have the opportunity to attend at least one trade or membership convention every year.  They can be great opportunities to expand your business, make valuable partnerships, and get feedback on your business plans from experienced leaders.  They can also be exhausting wastes of time and money. 

  Fortunately, it is up to you to decide which one it will be.

  First, make sure the conference is right for you.

• The Good Kind of Rules

  Do you have a hard time separating your important email from your not-so-important email?  With regular mail, it is easy to sort:  catalogs here, bills here, junk mail here.  You can tell by the packaging.

  Email is not so easy to distinguish by yourself, which is why you spend a long time going through your inbox and then feel like you've wasted a lot of time when you are done.

  The solution?  Rules.   Email rules, that is.

• Predictable Growth Through Followup

  Are you prepared to make 5 to 20 contacts with a potential customer before she decides to do business with you?  I hope so, because statistics show that 80% of customers wait that long to make a buying decision.
  

  You can make those contacts in a variety of ways, but if you count on occasional in-person contacts to do the trick you may be waiting years to make a sale.  And eating a lot of Ramen...
