WHAT'S IN THE COURSE
LASER-FOCUSED INFLUENCE
Stop wasting time consuming content and start creating content that draws opportunities to you. Worried you’ll need a lot of time? In this module, we integrate a 30-minute, Monday-Friday schedule to teach you the 3 most impactful activities to do on the platform for the biggest ROI. (Get in, get noticed, and get out– it’s that simple)
DEFINE YOUR POWER VALUE PROPOSITION
Even if you have a value proposition, chances are it’s not addressing the emotion and pain your prospects are currently feeling. We teach you a Unique Value Proposition Formulathat makes people INSTANTLY value your offerings. We then show you where and how to integrate this to generate leads.
CONVERT YOUR PROFILE INTO A POWERFUL SALES TOOL
Your LinkedIn profile SHOULD be performing even stronger than your website (It does for all of our students). We teach you the 5 key elements to turn your profile into a lead converting machine. (formulas and examples included)
POWER POSTING PLAYBOOK
Not much of a writer? In this lesson, we go in-depth and study 14 types of status updates that drive views, credibility, and leads to your inbox. Stop trying to figure out what to write, plug into these step-by-step templates and watch the likes and comments pour in.
FINDING QUALIFIED PROSPECTS AND GENUINELY CONNECTING
Qualified Propects= they want to work with you, you don’t have to convince them, and they see the value in what you offer. In this module, we teach you how to find prospects who are ready to buy RIGHT NOW and how to connect with them in a natural, “non-salesy” way.
CONNECTING WITH THE PRESS
94.2% of journalists and editors are on LinkedIn and 62% rate it as their preferred professional networking tool. In this module, we teach you how to effectively find them and connect with them to get BIG time press for your small business. We also provide you with a database of 1,000+ journalists with contact information that were curated specifically for your business and expertise.
FINAL IMPLEMENTATION
Strategies are great, but they mean nothing if you don’t integrate them. In this final lesson, we review everything you have learned and build it into a calendar-based system to drive brand awareness, media exposure, and speaking engagements by investing no more than 2.5 hours a week.

WHO IS THE INFLUENCE ACADEMY FOR?
Consultants, Service Providers, Coaches, and Small Business Owners
You sell your expertise and intellect for a living. You want to have a massive impact and create tons of value, but you don’t have endless time to market your services.
People who want to grow their business internationally.
Those looking for a SYSTEM for lead generation and credibility, because they are OVER trying 15 different things just to see if one strategy lands.
People who are over networking events.
You want to be a digital-nomad and help clients all over the world so you’re not location-dependent.
People who want consistency.
Networking events take a ton of time and they’re always slightly awkward. Plus, the clients you meet from these events tether you to one specific, geographic location.
Who is the Influence Academy NOT for?
“Get rich quick-ers.”
This is not for people looking for a quick “hack” to grow their business. This is for people who want to build a legacy and have a massive, long-lasting impact on their clients and the audiences they interact with.
Pessimists.
The success of this course is dependent on your belief in yourself and your commitment to the program. No room for complaining or excuses, we’re all about taking action.
Sales sharks.
Don’t get me wrong, I admire the heck out of you if you are a sales superstar. That really takes something, and most of us aren’t wired like you! But this is not the best fit if you are awesome at cold-calling and earn a one time commission on each sale.
HOW I STOPPED ATTENDING NETWORKING EVENTS AND BECAME A SPEAKER AND CONTRIBUTOR FOR NATIONAL NEWS OUTLETS (AND HOW YOU CAN TOO…)
Are you a small business owner with a vision of working with clients all over the world, monetizing your expertise through things like speaking engagements and being a contributor to the press, but you’re stuck on how to do it?
I get it– I was in this exact same position 4 years ago.
I wanted to make a huge impact but had no clue where to start.
I was running around from networking event to coffee meetings, and trying my hardest to connect and sell (which was uncomfortable, because I didn’t know how to “do” sales). I was also posting on every social platform I could hoping to “take off.”
That’s when I started to focus on LinkedIn.
I spent an entire year figuring out how to monetize the platform– I wrote, I connected, I posted, I did EVERYTHING.
And guess what?
I landed my first international client, set a bunch of meetings, I got featured on a TV show, and even made it into Fox Business multiple times to comment on brands like Jessica Alba and The Oscars (Say whatttttt?! I couldn’t believe it either….)
Stop being ineffective with your time trying to drum up brand awareness or opportunities. Get lifetime access to a 6-part system that grows your personal brand, firmly establishes you as an industry leader, and shows you how to monetize your expertise from activities like contributing and speaking.
