Have you yet made your reservations to benefit from ThinkBizNW? Conference organizers tell me that 150 people are already confirmed, and they are expecting a flurry of last minute registrants. I hope you are among them.
I am honored to be the breakfast keynote speaker for the Friday, September 10 breakfast session. I’ll be talking about how to kick that boring bio to the curb and why you should. And, one lucky member of the audience will win an Extreme Bio Makeover by yours truly. Here is the link to learn about the line-up of quality session leaders, the schedule of events, and to register.
Oh, by the way, this event gave me a reason to get the updated, revised, and much expanded second edition of Bye-Bye Boring Bio ready to launch. This comprehensive program of worksheets, articles, audio files and examples is going to help a great many people prepare the right bios for the right situations, and this edition emphasizes that a client-attracting bio is perhaps the most important version of all. I’ll have more to share about this as we move along.
Please, join me at ThinkBizNW. I’d love to meet you in person!

There is still time to register. We’ll be talking about “Kick Your Boring Bio to the Curb to Attract Money, Clients and Media Attention Now.” The call takes place tomorrow, Thursday, July 15 at 4 p.m. PST. You can reserve your place on the call by visiting this link.
Here are just a few of the testimonials that have flowed from two recent “live” talks:
“I attended one of Nancy Juetten’s seminars “Kick Your Boring Bio to the Curb to Make More Money, Attract Clients and Media Attention, and Get Recognized as the Expert” through Biznik. She was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. She brought energy and enlightenment to frankly a subject that I was not sure was all that important. Wow was I wrong. I could tell immediately the impact that having a dynamic Bio would have on my business. Using her outline, I’ve made really good progress on creating a Bio that will attract more customers and make my business stand out. If you don’t think it’s important having a great and fabulous Bio you’re really missing it. And the “it “you’re missing translates into customers and $$. I can’t say enough about Nancy Juetten, her workshops and her coaching.

It is always a thrill to hear from happy clients who use the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide to help them tell their stories in a winning way. Today, Melissa Wadsworth connected by email to share the new bio she created to tell her own story.

“It’s a Dream Come True for You and Me”
As a child, Melissa was captivated by the Disneyland “Carousel of Progress” attraction. The message of the theme song, “There’s a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow” imprinted resolutely on her tender soul. Years later she realized it spoke directly to her passion for creative evolution. Then in her late thirties she had inspired AHA!: “What You Notice Matters!™ In quick succession, she manifested her dream home, her dream man, and she left her 20-year PR career to fulfill her writing dreams. Her first book was published in 2005 and she is currently at work on From Blocked to Brilliant! 9 Steps to Living Your Dreams.

Melissa wrote her new bio with the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide and the accompanying 70-minute audio file as her tool of choice. Here is what Melissa had to say about the role the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide and audio played in helping her to share her story:
“Nancy Juetten’s Bye Bye Boring Action Guide and audio file were just the shot of energy I needed to turn my pretty good bio into something special and memorable. I’m a strong non-fiction writer, but writing about myself is a real challenge. By having great examples of outstanding biographies and following a couple of Nancy’s powerful suggestions, I was able to transform my bio. Now it reveals more personality and dynamically speaks to the exciting benefits of my business. Thanks Nancy for enabling to put my best self forward. What a fantastic and much needed service you provide. Entrepreneurs everywhere need to know about this.”
Thank you Melissa, for sharing your story and the tool you used to get the mission accomplished.

In May of this year, I attended the Oprah Live Your Best Life event in New York City, and it was a dream come true trip for me. Traveling solo, I ventured to the Big Apple to meet 5,000 of my new best friends. The experience did not disappoint, and I returned home very inspired to live my own best life. Great things have been unfolding in my life and work since my return, and it’s a beautiful thing. In fact, the blog post I shared about my experience has been among my most popular ever.
Last night, I made the decision to register for Ali Brown’s SHINE Event in Las Vegas November 2-4. Here 1,000 coaches, consultants, heart based business owners, and other independent business owners will gather to benefit from keynote speakers, breakout sessions on a wide range of practical, business-building topics, and facilitated networking. Since these are the people I serve most in my business, I want to connect with them, learn from them, and see what magic can manifest by being in the room to benefit from the quality programming in store for all.
Plus, I’ve been working by telephone with Marketing Coach James Roche since last December, and this event gives me an opportunity to meet him in person to thank him for the stunning, decisive results his coaching has helped me welcome in my business. James coaches the Platinum Tier of Ali Brown’s Millionaire Protege Club, so he will most definitely be “in the house” at SHINE. What a difference it has made for me to have a trusted, experienced, and successful guide to help me think through my own marketing strategy and refine the best approaches to deploy it to create the life and work I crave and deserve.
You know, I started the year working on my LIFE with Oprah and friends as my guides. I’ll end the year reflecting on my best WORK with Ali Brown, James Roche, and other top performers as my guides. Things are happening in the right sequence at long last, and I feel happier and more satisfied than ever.

If you weren’t able to attend yesterday’s presentation for the members of Biznik and beyond about how to kick your boring bio to the curb to attract clients, media attention and money to your business now, take heart. I captured the presentation on audio file, and you can listen in now!
I’d be thrilled if you listened and shared this audio file with people you know who can benefit. Feel free to Re-Tweet and share over your social networks.
And, if you want even more inspiration, be sure to register to today’s teleseminar that offers even more compelling content on a related topic — Write a Client Attracting Book Fast that Makes Up to $150,000 in Revenue Before It is Published. You can register for my interview with John Eggen at this link. Please do! See you on the call at 5 p.m. PST.
Do you realize that the moment you decide to write a book, you can begin to leverage that fact to attract new clients and revenue? You can learn how from my highly-acclaimed teleseminar guest John Eggen.
In fact, his methods to do it cost little or nothing, and take only minutes or seconds to use. Authors that John has taught them to have reported using them and generating $22,000 to $150,000 in new revenues from their book, before even completing a first draft (and more thereafter).
Here are three of the ultra-simple ways to do it:
1. Turn Every Email You Send into a Client Magnet
The first easy technique to attract new clients is to create an email signature line that announces you are authoring a book.
Then place the title in the signature line for your emails using these exact words: “Author of the forthcoming book, (insert your title and subtitle here).”
It’s that simple.
Independent professional Jeanna Pool, tried it. She reported, “I got two new clients and $25,000.00 in income, all within 30 days of starting my book. It took just three minutes to use John Eggen’s simple technique.”
2. Turn All Your Introductions into Business Magnets
Another proven way to attract new business is to simply announce the title and subtitle of your forthcoming book in all the prepared introductions about you.
This includes introductions made by others, or you, in all your public presentations, your marketing materials, on your Web site, in your bio, in your media kit, etc.
This only takes a few minutes to do.
Kathleen Holland tested it while she was writing the first draft of her book. She reported, “In just the first four months, I booked an extra $48,000 in fees to me. Now I have more inquiries for my coaching programs than I can handle.”
3. Put Your Elevator Speech or Audio Logo on Steroids
You can also add news about your forthcoming book into your elevator speech or audio logo and automatically attract more business.
Independent professional Michael Cannon learned how from John and started using this method as soon as he started writing his book’s first draft.
Cannon reported, “I’ve been getting 30-40% more first meetings with CEO prospects and a 25% increase in those who closed. I’ve also been getting less negotiation on price, because they perceive me as an authority.”
Use two or more of these “no-brainer” methods and you can multiply your results.
Want to learn more? Opt-in to listen to the Thursday, June 24 teleseminar interview at 5 p.m. PST with Book Publishing Mentor John Eggen. Just over 180 people have already opted in. Won’t you join them? Here is the link to make it easy.
Would like to meet me in person and learn some useful tips to get seem, heard, celebrated and COMPEN$ATED because you have finally have a bio that makes you and your expertise stand out and shine?
If you answered YES to both questions, join me at Friends Philosophy and Tea on Wednesday, June 23 from 3 p.m. – 5 p.m. I am hosting a free Biznik event that promises powerful tips you can apply immediately in your business to connect more readily with the right clients so you can attract more bounty in your business now.
I gave this same presentation a test drive at a live event attended by 20+ aspiring authors last week and I earned rave reviews like this one:
“I just heard Nancy speak at another event and she is a true gem. Don’t miss this event if you want to see an outstanding professional who is talented, funny and personable.”
– Jeff Bow Executive & Business Coaching
I invite you to put my content to the test to your own benefit.
