For last month's annual Appreciation sale on private coaching, I didn't do a buy-now-book-later option. It was buy-and-book-now only. First mistake.
Oh, I had a good reason. It was looking like we were going to transition to a new booking system, and I wanted to minimize the potential for errors.
Which would have been cool, except that I messed up the closing date. Which was, obviously, the last day of the month and the sale.
Except it wasn't. The coupon stopped working 24 hours earlier than I expected. And my email went crazy with help requests. CRAZY!
After bending over backwards trying to make this right on an individual basis, it hit me. Only the most motivated had reached out. No doubt there were others who lost out because of my mistakes. (Which were stacking up FAST!)
Since I am the queen of my DIY domain, I made a ruling: The 20% OFF Coaching offer is open until August 13th. AND it is all (ALL!) buy-now-book-later.
(Yeah, I thought about doing a coupon to apply the savings to the buy-and-book-now sessions. But TOO confusing.)
Bottom line: Ready to stock up and save on private coaching? NOW is the time! Here are the links for your immediate gratification:
In other news, big program improvements are coming! Our monthly marketing skills webinars shift to the third WEDNESDAYs as of October. Take a sneak peek at the all-new Q4 schedule here: Members Only

Good gracious, I'd read quite a few marketing books and took notes, but then all I had was a computer file with a lot of notes. Now, after your one-hour class--and the Friday deadline--I actually wrote it down and even went through some of those notes while I did it. Wow. I can't believe I did it! Thanks so much, Ronnie. You're terrific!" ~Julie McDonald Zander, Chapters of Life Memory Books, www.chaptersoflife.com
