Last night I received an email from one of my Broadcast Your Brilliance Webinar Series Graduates. Olalah Njenga got into action in a big way to prepare and share her story during the five-week series. She’s been seen, heard, and celebrated at a keynote event, two live news broadcasts on the same night and two radio interviews within days of each other; one of the interviews was featured at Forbes.com.
When asked about the impact of the course on her business, here is what she had to say in her tell-it-like-it-is style:
- Bolstering my level of preparedness has been immeasurable.
- Integrating my successes in business with overcoming my personal challenges has created a signature talk that I have been asked to present multiple times.
- I no longer cringe when my bio is requested for an opportunity; I happily and quickly respond to requests and even suggest topics for discussion.
- I effortlessly pull out nuggets of my bio and turn them into media soundbites and quotables; a step that helped me fine tune one of my signature talks.
- Because my bio was easily accessible, I received a flurry of nominations for a women in business award and recently found out that I won.
By taking action on lessons learned during the course and stepping up to the “Steeping Hot Seat” to get feedback on her bios, press releases, and story pitches, Olalah has stepped into the spotlight in a big way and under her own power and initiative.
To learn more about Marketing Strategist Olalah Njenga, visit wwwyellowwoodgroup.com/olalah. She’ll gladly tell you that not having a competitive advantage is not an option. Her clients say that “Olalah Njnega delivers solid gold value you can take to the bank.” Isn’t it amazing, the value of a sassy sound bite? I’ll bet you are rushing over to her site right now to learn more about her.
You can have what she is having. Just enroll in the next session of the Broadcast Your Brilliance Webinar Series. Tomorrow at dawn (12-2-11) is the deadline to claim the $100 early bird discount with your Webinar100 code and enjoy your VIP access to the Get Known to Get Paid Online Success Library so you can make 2012 your brightest ever.

We are nearing the time of year with “New Year, New You” messages are going to be very timely. That is why Body Image Mastery Coach Laura Fenamore is putting some emphasis on getting her story together to share with the world in perfect timing as a participant in the fall session of the Broadcast Your Brilliance Webinar Series. When she shared her bio with me earlier in the week, it was pretty good. And, I could see some ways to make it a whole lot better.
Here is the BEFORE version:
Laura Fenamore, CPCC, is the CEO of Body Image Mastery, LLC and founder of OnePinky.com, a global online community that extends support and friendship to women who wish to change the way they feel about themselves and their bodies. Her forthcoming book Weightless: A Body Image Revolution, a memoir/self-help book is currently in submission for publication and her 12-week Body Image Mastery Course supports her private coaching practice. She lives a healthy, joyful life of faith and gratitude in Northern California.
Comments:
- This bio is packed with alphabet soup that may not be easily understood by every reader.
- There detail about seeking a publisher isn’t super interesting.
- No proof is noted for the impact of her programs.
- Her personal story is missing along with a call to action to make it possible for her to monetize her visibility.
With a few important edits, the new bio is much stronger.
Here is the AFTER version:
Body Image Mastery Coach Laura Fenamore is on a mission to guide women around the world to love what they see in the mirror, one pinky at a time, so they can unlock the secrets to a healthy weight and start loving their lives as soon as possible.
Her popular Body Image Mastery program is celebrated by hundreds of women who have lost weight, reclaimed self-esteem, and started bold, happy lives with Laura and her proven programs as their guide.
Having overcome her own battle with addiction, obesity, and eating disorders, Laura released over 100 pounds 24 years ago to begin a journey to guide other women to live more joyous, balanced lives. The author of the forthcoming book Weightless: a Body Image Revolution and a frequent contributor to local and national media – including First for Women magazine and the Dr. Pat Show, Laura believes that self love and care is where the transformation begins. Learn more about her programs, invite her to speak or contribute to your program or conference, or place pre-orders for her book today at onepinky.com.
Much better!
Laura’s work is life changing for women who struggle with weight loss and negative body image. She offers a free eBook and Audio that offer “Simple Strategies to Start Losing Weight Today.” Check it out on her home page.
Action Suggestion for Today: Take a look at your story and make sure you make clear your particular brand of WOW so your ideal clients will want to do business with you right NOW. Why wait a moment longer?

Alison Marks has a website called 6 Figure Home Office, and she also hosts a series of interviews called “Success Talks with Alison Marks.” During these interviews, she asks successful business owners questions like:
- How is your desk set up?
- How do you keep email and social media from eating up your day?
- How do you organize your files?
- What does your to-do list look like?
Her mission is to guide home based business owners to get more done in less time. If that isn’t a cause worth fighting for, I don’t know what is!
I’ll be her guest for the November 15 program, and I am really looking forward to it.
When Alison asked for my bio, yes, she wanted the professional bio that is ready 24/7 on the “about” page of my site. And, she wanted a more personal bio that would speak to my life as a home based business owner.
Since Morgana Rae has kicked me in the behind about apologizing for being a suburban soccer mom (on video, no less!), I’ve written a new, more personal bio that I can share for situations where this style of message is relevant to the opportunity.
Nancy transformed from “desperate housewife” to “PR and Storytelling Diva” by taking her own advice. Since 2001, she has generously shared her tips, resources, workshops, and programs while working comfortably from her Bellevue, Washington home office — often while wearing pajamas. As disciplined about her work habits as she is about creating great results for clients and her own brand and reputation, she is most proud of her almost 25-year marriage to Steve Juetten and the good job they are doing so far raising their 14-year-old son. Both work from home offices and are at the ready to support both clients and family needs at a moment’s notice and without apology. Their adorable Cockapoo puppy “Champ” adds some welcome and wonderful chaos to their lives.

A few months ago, I had the wonderful occasion to meet a woman named Mariette Edwards after presenting via webinar for the good folks at Practice Pay Solutions. Mariette’s gift to share with the world is to guide people to do their own great work in the world. Working together, we found the right words to tell her story at www.doyourgreatwork.com. Last week, she send me a post card to say thank you for our work together, and the invitation was to visit her newly branded website that tells her story. Her message was short and sweet: “Nancy, it all came together with your bio. Clearly you are doing your great work!”
When clients take time to send me handwritten notes on personal stationery, I know I am doing something right. That feels just great.
Just today, I heard from another satisfied client, Gigi Centaro. Gigi engaged me to prepare a speaker sheet to support her success after enjoying the first session of the bio and branding wow now tele boot camp concluded in the spring. Here is what Gigi had to say about our work together:
“The first thing I requested of Nancy when I engaged her services was a speaker sheet. Although I’m an author and I’m good with words, I was having trouble putting my passion to 
paper. I wasn’t able to show myself in the best light. It’s impossible to see yourself and your work clearly. Nancy spent over an hour on the telephone interviewing me to get the heartbeat of my speaking style and message. She took that information and created a first draft of my speaker sheet. I was thrilled with the words she found to describe my topic. They were witty, clever, fun and engaging. I did some revisions and sent it back to Nancy. She then took the best of my changes and added even more of her brilliance. The result was a speaker sheet that is dynamic, clear, exciting and attention getting. Nancy has a gift with words. She comes up with ideas and concepts that are novel and powerful. She generously gave additional time on the phone brainstorming and giving suggestions. She certainly gave value beyond what I had expected. You can’t see your work clearly. You need someone to shine a spotlight on you to make your work come alive. Nancy Juetten is someone that will make you shine and allow you to stand out from the crowd.”
– Gigi Centaro, Award-winning author and speaker, “Let’s Cook Tonight”, www.GigiSpeaks.com
It really does light me up to know that my word wizardry can be unleashed to support the success of really great people who have their own great gifts to share with the world. With Labor Day fast approaching and busy families scrambling to get a lot of things done to prepare for a demanding fourth quarter and chaotic school year, the timing is right to take more action. That’s why I am encouraging Mariette and Gigi to prepare and share press releases and story pitches for the media that are packed with useful tips and suggestions to guide people everywhere to benefit from their sage advice in perfect timing for the Labor Day and “back to school” windows.
When broader audiences learn about these fine people and the missions they are here to serve, the buzz will build, invitations will flow, and prosperity will soon follow. It’s just a matter of preparing and sharing their stories with the right audiences to benefit and sharing the information in a way that is timely, newsworthy, interesting and relevant. Step by step, one inspired action at a time, success will flow. With inspired women such as Mariette and Gigi, I have no doubt.
If you need to bring in the reinforcements to reflect your own brilliance in a way you may not be able to articulate on your own, I am here to serve YOUR great work. Get in touch, and let’s make it happen in perfect timing. My email is nancy@AuthenticVisibility and my phone number ( PST) is 425-641-5214.

The replay of the LIVE webinar for the 7000 members of Practice Pay Solutions has been posted for your enjoyment at this link. During this Webinar, I share the Rock Star Status Reality Check and do several bio makeovers LIVE to showcase the important teaching points.
The Facebook love notes have been flowing in response to this awesome engaging experience.
- Sheila T. Allen writes, “Nancy – you really DO rock the bio world — All I can say is WOW!!!”
- When asked about the biggest “aha” lesson learned from this webinar, here is what Christina McGhee had to say:
- “Taking imperfect action really hit home as did the tips on developing your speaker page. Clearly I have some work to do and I completely agree that it needs to be done on the front end not in the moment. In short, I need to give myself a media makeover.”
- Jansenius T. Lange Jr. writes, “Nancy, You have delivered and I received it generously. Thank you very much…”
- And Andrea Cinnamond writes, “OMG!! I thought you were great. I had the honor of having my sad bio redone by Nancy and I sound really special now. I hope I can get a copy of it as I was only on the phone and was unable to write it down. If your course is as good as this call, sign me up!!”
Needless to say, I am feeling pretty good about these favorable reviews.
What is GREAT for you is that you can benefit from the webinar now at your 24/7 convenience. Just visit this link and enjoy right now.
And, if you are truly serious about getting seen, heard, celebrated and compensated for your expert status and want to chat for 15-minutes the week of May 2-6 to explore the perfect way to get the mission accomplished with my help, send me an email at nancy@nsjmktg.com. I’ll be happy to chat with you.
