5 Steps to Quickly Ascend From Fear to Courage

February 2nd, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Coach, Internet Marketing strategies

My husband and business partner, Mark, and I recently attended our Diamond retreat with our millionaire business coach, Kendall SummerHawk.  We were also blessed with a masterminding session with Fortune 500 and multi-millionaire coach, Ali Brown.

It was refreshing for us to learn about their fears and “stuck points” as they’ve grown their businesses.  Fears that felt synonymous with my own.  Fears that you experience as well.

You have a choice when faced with fear- either shrink back into the comfortable routine you know, and stay the same, or see fear for what it is- an opportunity to propel your forward.  If you prefer the latter, follow this path to help you-

1) Start with gratitude.  Create a list of what you are grateful for in your business and personal life.  Spend a few minutes reviewing your list and practice deep gratitude for your blessings.  Practicing gratitude is an excellent way to stay grounded and maintain a healthy perspective.

Bria Business Tips – Essential Keys to Becoming a Premier Expert in Your Field

January 29th, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Coach, Internet Marketing strategies

Somewhere inside you, you know without a doubt you are an expert.   Maybe you are in the early stages of this awareness or perhaps you are already standing tall in your authentic power.  Either way, here are 4 tips to help you rise to the top, and stay there.

Tip #1- Turn up your voice of courage and turn down your voice of fear.

Courage is not the absence of fear.  Courage is feeling your fear and moving forward anyway. Every successful business person has wanted to throw their hands in the air and quit at times…every single one.  What breeds rich success, is the ability to feel fear and do it anyway.

At every stage of your growth, you need to work on turning down the volume of fear, and turning up the volume of courage.

Bria Business Tips – 3 Myths That Could Be Holding You Back Financially

January 28th, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Coach, Internet Marketing strategies

There is one thing that keeps many entrepreneurs stuck in low-mid 5-Figures… money!  Isn’t it interesting that money beliefs might be keeping you from making a lot more money?

Here are three of the most common money myths that might be keeping you from reaching 6 figures.  Learn to change each of these myths into the truth that will pull you forward.

Myth #1- People who make a lot of money are greedy and selfish.

Many of us have this myth embedded in our psyche from our families.  The media certainly contributes to this saga.  It’s a belief that has been passed down across generations and likely sprouted from jealousy.

The truth is – money makes you more of who you are.  If you are greedy and selfish- more money will make you more greedy and selfish.  If you are heart-centered and loving- money allows you to be even more heart-centered and loving.  It’s as simple as that. [Read more →]

Bria Business Tips- Key Strategies To Reach Your High Income Goals

January 25th, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Coach, Internet Marketing strategies

1.)    Get clear on your big picture. Why do you want to make money?  What do you VALUE?  How will money help you live your values? For me, I value sending my kids to college, traveling the world with my family, having the freedom to have fun with my family and friends, taking great care of myself, giving money to disadvantaged children- especially in third world countries.  That is why I make 6-figures and work for myself.

How about YOU?  What do you value most and how will a bigger income help you live your values?

2)    How much money do you want to make over the next year? Stretch yourself. The money goal you set should make you a little uncomfortable.  The amount needs to be at least 50% above your prior income.  (And yes, you can get there -even in this economy). [Read more →]

Do you need help creating your “Signature System”?

January 21st, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Coach, Business and Marketing Mentor, Internet Marketing strategies

Platinum10We are back from our platinum retreat in Miami with our nine amazing platinum clients. Their entrepreneurial talents include several business coaches, financial advisor, personal stylist, family therapist, and cross-cultural consultant.

At the retreat, we created their “signature systems” to help them stand out from the crowd, their multiple streams of income, their list-building strategies and their 12 month launch calendar and marketing plan.

Whew! It was a lot to cover in three days but we did it, and, we managed to laugh a LOT as well. (Mark and I are firm believers that work is a lot more fulfilling when you have fun along the way).

Check out what some of them have to say here on the blog.

Some of my favorite comments were “If I’d known about your retreats earlier in my business, I would have been much better off!” and “You not only cover the “what” to do in your business, but the “how” and the “when”’ as well” and “I really appreciate all the personal attention”.

And, I absolutely loved the connections we created. I purposely select “highly capable” entrepreneurs, those with the desire to accelerate their business with straight-talk tactics and laser-focused coaching.

I only have 3 more spots in my upcoming SMALL high-level platinum group. If you’d like to talk with me about applying, please contact Kimm at info [at] BriaSimpson [dot] com to set up an interview with me.

And to my current group- thank you for really stepping up. I love participating in YOUR business transformation.

Feeling Stuck? Breakthrough to 6-Figures by Breaking These Habits

January 19th, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Mentor, Internet Marketing strategies

Old habits are hard to break.  And yet… some habits MUST be broken for 6-figure success.  The ones that keep you running in circles, rather than moving FORWARD are the ones that need to be shattered.

And thankfully, once you identify what is keeping you stuck and learn HOW to breakthrough them, your old limiting habits can be replaced with new, effective ones.

Read on to determine if any of these pesty habits are holding you back- and learn how YOU can ditch them.

#1- Perfectionism and Inflexibility.  You believe that everything must be “perfect” before you get yourself out there.  You want things to go “exactly as planned” or you are in a twit about it.  The problem is, perfection is impossible to achieve and in the entrepreneurial world, things rarely go “exactly as planned”.   [Read more →]

Bria’s Business Tips – When Networking Becomes EASY

January 15th, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Mentor, Internet Marketing strategies

I attended an event for meeting planners earlier this week to learn about planning our September event and to meet entrepreneurs.  Mark generally goes with me to these events (which I used to avoid like the plague) but he was sick.  When he’s present, I can rely on his gift of gab and just sort of fill in at times.  Without him, I am forced to connect on my own- which I used to dislike because something always felt “off” or “uncomfortable” when it came time to tell others about my own work.

HOWEVER, I am thrilled to announce that I no longer dislike networking events- I enjoy them! Now that my business is 110% aligned with who I am and I know with 110% certainty that my coaching programs help entrepreneurs vastly accelerate their income, so they can live their values- I LOVE talking about what I do with others.  First, I connect with them- which I have always enjoyed.  And then, when they ask me what I do, I comfortably and authentically tell them how I help entrepreneurs.  It’s EASY.  It’s effortless.  And, without me consciously having to “try”, just by being real, I get clients.

If you want what I have, please contact me soon.  I have a few openings in a coaching group that might just be exactly what you need to quickly grow your business AND augment your ability to fill your programs- authentically and effortlessly.

Bria’s Business Tips – Business and Life Lessons from a Tennis Prodigy

January 14th, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Mentor, Internet Marketing strategies

I just finished reading “The Open” by tennis prodigy Andre Agassi.  I grew up watching him play and whereas I didn’t dig his temper tantrums, I loved that he wore his own style of clothes and didn’t automatically ditch his true self to fit in.

In reading his memoir, however, I learned how much pain he felt trying to meet the expectations of others- his father’s relentless perfectionistic goals that were impossible to meet and his first wife, Brooke Shield’s love affair with celebrities and social status- something to which he just couldn’t relate.

His shift from misery in what I call  “other-centered” to true happiness in “authentic-centered” is beautiful to observe.  Once he marries tennis star Steffi Graf and starts living his life in HIS terms- his business, his life, and his joy flourish.

Some great lessons here about our lives and businesses.  As entrepreneurs, we have the freedom to create authentic businesses that are true extensions of who we are.  We have the opportunity to be “authentic-centered”- a prerequisite for real happiness.  Why would we do anything else?

Bria’s Business Tips- The Power of SMALL Platinum Retreats

January 12th, 2010 · Business Strategies, Business and Marketing Mentor, Internet Marketing strategies

Mark and I are back from our amazing coaching retreat in Miami.  I just wanted to say that the energy and brilliance that came out of our SMALL high-level group of nine was unbelievable.  Clients left with a CLEAR marketing and launch calendar of their 2010 year- something they had never done before and something they were ecstatic to create together.

I will post videos on my website and in some emails to you soon so you can hear for yourselves what they have to say.

For now, I just want to share my gratitude that such phenomenal “highly-capable” entrepreneurs invested in me.  I am so honored and thrilled to help them ALL reach 6-figures this year- so they can truly live their values and enjoy lifestyle luxury.
