I consistently was someone who would start a marketing initiative with great enthusiasm only to have it sputter out due to lack of follow through. The Gentle Rain process, coupled with Mark's advice has ensured that I focus on the most important activities and that the initial enthusiasm doesn't turn into vapors.

I am most comfortable when there is a game plan or system that one needs to follow. Mark's approach, while flexible to accommodate individual needs, leaves no doubt about what must be done at each stage to keep the business development process moving forward.

In executive search, it's difficult to differentiate yourself from other recruiters. I give Mark high grades for giving me excellent advice (and very frank feedback) that has finally enabled me to uniquely brand my practice.

It's so easy to put off business development when existing clients are demanding service. What I like about Mark Satterfield's coaching is that I focus my energies on what needs to be done to ensure the continued growth of my practice.

Mark's got a very appropriate coaching style. Empathetic to the realities of the world I live in, yet challenging me in highly professional manner.

Dear Friend,

We all know that the largest obstacles for getting as many new clients as you desire is Knowing What To Do and maintaining the Motivation necessary to achieve Tangible Results.

Which isn't always easy.

Developing a Marketing System for growing your business to the level you want... being able to consistently attract brand new clients eager to do business with you... establishing yourself as a true expert in you field... can often be overwhelming. Where to start? What precisely to do?

Believe me I know, since that's exactly where I was during the early years of starting my business.

If truth were told, I survived those first few years largely due to a combination of luck and the network of contacts I had developed over the years. Although that was enough to keep the business afloat, I eventually realized that simply relying on word of mouth and referrals just wasn't going to be enough if I was serious about achieving the level of success I wanted. After all, I had left an executive level position at a prestigious Fortune 100 company to start my business, so the idea of being "Good But Not Great" frustrated the heck out of me.

Although it took me a bit longer than it should have, I finally realized that it doesn't make a bit of difference if you're a world-class marketing expert (or consultant, coach, advisor, entrepreneur) if no one knows about you.

And when that realization finally sank in, I committed myself to finding a marketing system that would work for me. I wanted...

A marketing system that motivated prospective clients to "Raise Their Hands" and self-identify themselves as prospects. (I tried making a handful of "cold calls" but quickly found out that I was both inept at the process and hated everything about pushing myself on others.)
A marketing system that would enable me to be able to pick and choose who I did business with. (That's something that is very hard to do unless you have a system that makes LOTS of people interested in becoming clients.)
A marketing system that ran largely on autopilot. My system needed to BOTH continually attract new prospects and stay in touch with them. (Regardless of whether I was busy with clients, on vacation or playing golf.)

And that's what I achieved with Gentle Rain.

Granted, along the way I made every mistake one could possibly could. (My wife often joked, "It would be great if you could get it right the first time... just once.") But the reality is that although from 10,000 feet marketing seems simple, at the ground level... where marketing ideas have the potential to turn into thousands of dollars in your bank account... there are lots of ways to mess it up.

But I persevered and today earn a high six-figure income while working at a pace that allows me time for the other things in life that are very important to me.

Granted I could make more money but in all candor there are a lot of activities that I enjoy doing. I'm an avid reader, my personal trainer kicks my butt twice a week, I play three rounds of golf a week, (as my golfing buddies say, "For someone who plays as much golf as you do... you really should be a lot better.") and enjoy lots of good quality time with my wife and dear friends.

As I look back on what finally enabled me to move from Aspiring-Success-Story to living a life I wouldn't trade with anyone, the turning point was when I enrolled in two coaching programs, and hired a personal mentor to guide me.

The problem I faced when I was setting up Gentle Rain was in connecting the dots. How to actually execute the details that are crucial for a successful marketing system. As I mentioned before, all of this seems real easy from the 10,000-foot view, but when it comes time to actually put a marketing system in place, it's an entirely different matter. That's where having a mentor and guidance really pays off.

Since 1992 (when I finally got my marketing system up and running) I've personally worked with slightly over 1,100 consultants, coaches, advisors, entrepreneurs and small business owners, helping them develop their own version of the system that's worked for me. Sometimes that work has entailed one-on-one coaching, and other times, I (and my team) have actually done all the work to bring these marketing campaigns to life.

 

The Reason I'm Writing To You Today

I took some time recently to take a look at my Gentle Rain subscribers. One thing I noticed is that there are a lot of people who would benefit from having a Gentle Rain Marketing System... one that brings them consistent streams of new business... but from a practical perspective, they don't have the resources to invest in either my personal coaching or our consulting programs in which we do all the work for you.

Thus I came up with the idea of the Gentle Rain Inner Circle.

 

Here's how it works.

Every month, in an interactive webinar/teleclass we'll cover easy to implement and powerful strategies you can use to achieve your business growth objectives. Each session is a deep-drill down on specific strategies you can use to attract loads of brand new prospects and then convert large percentages of them into paying clients.

I'll also periodically invite special guests to appear on the programs. These are all individuals who have built six and seven figure businesses using the Gentle Rain process. You'll learn in precise detail what they did, how they achieved the success they have, and what they would do differently if they were going to start again today.

Each one-hour program will consist of both content and Q&A. You'll have the opportunity to ask me questions and receive live and immediate answers to the most challenging issues you face.

If you've attended any of my other programs or invested in my information products you know that I'm passionate about providing you with practical ideas that are simple, cost effective and easy to implement.

The monthly programs are held on the third Tuesday of each month but don't worry if you can't attend live. As an Inner Circle member you'll receive copies of the Power Point overheads and an audio link recording of the program. That way you can listen to the program at your convenience, share it with others in your organization, as well as refer to it at a later date.

 

So what's the investment?

Enrolling in a single monthly program is always an option for people who are interested in a particular topic. The "one time session" fee per program starts at $137. However, as an Inner Circle Member you're enrollment fee is a low $49 per month. And remember, as a member you also receive copies of each monthly presentation's Power Points and an audio link of the entire presentation. Listen live or at your convenience!

Why you should enroll now...

Quite frankly at $49 a month I'm really not charging anything close to full value for the information I'll be sharing. Thus my plan is to start raising the monthly fee pretty aggressively, pretty quickly. So if I were you, and I was serious about achieving my business growth objectives, I'd sign up right now. (If for no other reason than to lock in this introductory rate.)

Remember that you receive both Power Points and audio recordings so even if you're not ready to immediately implement your marketing plan, you will still have a library of valuable information at this incredibly low price.

But (as they say) Wait... There's More.

Each month I'll be providing you with both the valuable content information and the resources you can use to quickly turn plans into action. We both know that the key to actually getting things done is to outsource certain tasks to those best equipped to perform them, which frees you up to focus on what you enjoy the most and do the best... run your business.

I'll be sharing with you my personal rolodex of contacts and provide you with inside referrals to the people, vendors, tools and resources that do what they're suppose to do. This alone can save you hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars.

 

My 100% No Weasel Guarantee

It's this simple... If you want to cancel your membership at any time simply let me know via phone or email and we will stop charging your credit card immediately.

No questions. No hassles, No hard feelings. You must be completely thrilled or I don't want you in the group.

That being said, I know that once your experience my Gentle Rain Inner Circle Membership you'll be hooked because of all the information you'll receive on simple, easy to implement strategies you can begin to use immediately to achieve your business growth objectives AND give yourself more time to enjoy your life.

I'm ready for you
