Do You REALLY Believe? * Creating a Community of Animal-Assisted Educators * Equine Guided Learning Demo - Sept 16th * What we are up to and thank you! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Marketing for Equine Professionals. Do You REALLY Believe? This is part TWO from a 3-part article by Beth Woodward, Chief Executive Kid of Marketing on the Playground (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=mgf5zxbab.0.0.ldkhblbab.0&ts=S0206&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.marketingontheplayground.com). Beth has been instrumental in helping US get clear about a marketing strategy that is easy, fun and WORKS! Continuing from Part 1 of our article, Marketing for Equine Professionals, I would like to share something I recently learned, or actually, was reminded of with the power of Belief. I just had foot surgery and it was pretty extensive. Before I went into the hospital I had a concern that I would lose momentum in my business with a 12-week recovery period. As I looked at what I had accomplished and believed, I saw a great downtime opportunity to create the new products I was excited about bringing to my audience. I KNEW I wouldn’t have any problem. I believed everything would be all right. The second I woke up from my surgery I KNEW I would continue to achieve my goals. It’s the first thing I thought about when I opened my eyes. It was like a gift that came from an angel. Through the next 3 weeks my laptop was attached to my hip with ideas just BURSTING. (in-between naps from the painkillers) It was a painful time and an inspiring time. During my first month of recovery time I continued to learn about myself, my business, what was right for me and where I shouldn’t go. I was like a sponge and one day something really hit me. A BIG AHA! BELIEF! I’ve had it all along but something was different now. It had a deeper meaning and it played a much bigger role. Not just for me but for all solo- entrepreneurs. The foundation with cornerstones that I work from and I know a lot of us do when we have a business is, Belief, Trust, Passion, Business Process and Marketing. Another big piece is only doing what I LOVE and having a great spiritual connection. Feel free to fill in any pieces that are different for your foundation. Here’s the BIG AHA! Belief is the entire foundation. In fact, if I were to create a business model it would look something like this. Picture a triangle. On the left side of the triangle is Business; right side is Marketing; top is Trust; Within the triangle is Passion; and Belief is the entire foundation. Spirituality encompasses all. I KNOW what I have and BELIEF has carried me to where I am now and where I will go. Do you know what you have? You have something magnificent! You have something that no one else has because you are unique and that’s what you bring to your business. If you have a dream, go after it. If you have a business, make it a GREAT one. In either case don’t deprive others of your gifts. They are in need of you and it’s up to you (and your support system) to make it happen. Please join me for part 3 of 3 in the next newsletter when we talk about that Shifting Experience.
