It’s been a busy few weeks around here. My coaching groups and private work with women are moving at full speed. Last week, I met with a group of women who traveled from various parts of the globe to vision and strategize on their businesses and I also had a chance to grab a quick dinner with Ali Brown, who’s been a mentor and coach to me over the last few years.
Strategizing, Cracking the Code and a Success Circle

Smart Women And Their Relationship With Money
February 16, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Recently, I had the opportunity to spend the day strategizing with a group of smart women entrepreneurs from different parts of the world. It was an energizing day focused on topics such as effective marketing, clear messaging to attract your ideal client, time management and money.
At one point, women were expressing the challenges they face in getting everything accomplished each day including running a business, managing a family, and hopefully time to squeeze in a little self-care.
I shared with the group that when I’m in the office, I ask myself three questions to help me stay focused and directed on making money in my business:
1. Where is the potential for new business?
2. Are my private clients and groups experiencing award winning results?
3. Have I reached out to my referral sources this week?

Smart Women SOAR Retreat, Elevate Premier Group and saying Thank You
February 2, 2012 By Leave a Comment
I’ve had an abundant beginning to 2012. January was about supporting women to create plans that weave their business dreams together with their personal values. I had the opportunity to work with my Ali Brown Elevate Premier group, as well as my 2-day Smart Women SOAR™ Retreat here in Southern California. It was a magical experience for all and especially for me as I learn so much from spending time with you. You can watch a video from one of the attendee’s by clicking here.

Smart Women Avoid The Perils of Being Queen of Their Castle
February 2, 2012 By Leave a Comment
One of the most exciting parts about being a woman entrepreneur is you become “queen of your own castle.” You sit on the throne in your tower (sometimes referred to as the corner of the dining room table) making decisions for your domain (your solo-business) and over time, this can become a lonely existence. It’s not easy making all the decisions by yourself and it’s possible that your decisions are not as creative or innovative as they might be if you had a supportive group of people around who care about your success.
In my work, I’ve discovered that women find asking for help risky as they see it as a sign of weakness. They create a belief that they are the only ones having a struggle and this could not be further from the truth. Everyone is questioning some aspect of their business. Whether it’s to attract more clients, increase their income or expand their programs and services – women entrepreneurs have many of the same challenges.
New Opportunities, Special Pricing and Showing Appreciation
January 19, 2012 By
January is off to a great start with lots of “new” in it – new programs for women entrepreneurs, new opportunities and best of all – a new bike. We live very close to the bike path that runs along the beach so it’s the perfect exercise choice and it makes a great family outing as well. Here I am with my Trek 7000 hybrid. You can’t really see her well in this photo but she’s a sleek silver. I’m thinking of naming her Sally. : -)
Did you know that 2012 is a leap year? They come around once every 4 years so if you’re feeling like 2012 is the year for you to make the leap in your business, there’s 1 spot left in my Smart Woman’s Business Acceleration Program and I’m still honoring my birthday special pricing! 12 private, personal calls with me and a full day retreat at a peaceful relaxing B&B is included.

Smart Women and the “WIIFM” Factor
January 19, 2012 By
Do you know what “WIIFM” stands for? Sure you do! You ask yourself this question every time you think about making an investment or purchase - “What’s In It For Me?” We purchase everything based on the “benefits” that we will receive when we use the service or product.
Let me give you an example: Last week, I purchased a new bicycle because I want to start taking long bike rides with my family. There was one benefit I was looking for with the purchase of this new bike: comfort. It had to be comfortable. When I finally found the bike that met my comfort requirement I was delighted, however right next to it was a bike that was a beautiful shade of purple which made my heart skip a beat. I sampled both bikes and in the end bought the bike that was a shade of silver because it was clearly the most comfortable ride. The color was a “feature” not a “benefit” for me. Remember the greatest “benefit” for me was comfort.
Will you join me in Dallas this May?
January 12, 2012 By
My number one marketing strategy that works for me every time is getting out of the office and speaking or attending events. I know that visibility is a key factor in attracting more clients, building relationships and enjoying more speaking engagements. I’m excited to share with you that Cathy Alessandra’s Success Summit is back in 2012 and now in two locations!
Cathy is an expert at creating events for women entrepreneurs. She understands exactly what it takes to put an event together that blends timely, relevant information for women entrepreneurs with just enough time for great networking and relationships to happen. When she asked me to speak again this year at both events, I was thrilled.
This year she’s offering her Success Summit in 2 Locations!
Dallas, Texas – May 18th & 19th
Los Angeles, California – October 5th and 6th
There are some exciting Early Bird specials but you have to act fast. Plus, I’ll be leading a Bonus Day in Dallas and Los Angeles along with Jennifer Bourn of Bourn Creative to help you take what you learned at the Success Summit and implement on the spot. If 2012 is the year you are planning to take the leap in your business, read on…

Announcing…
SUCCESS Summit 2012
SUCCESS Summit is planned around the topics most important to YOU and your business growth! Our day is packed full of amazing content but we’ve also planned plenty of hands-on networking time to allow you to connect and create ideas with other business owners.

During this highly interactive, content-rich day, you will be led through creating your own action steps for accelerating your business to a new level of success. You will walk away with your own carefully crafted entrepreneurial Blueprint for SUCCESS designed to keep you focused on an action plan you can implement immediately to help you reach your business goals.
Here is what one attendee had to say about last year’s event…
“I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of such an amazing community of powerful women at the Success Summit. I came home with a notebook of information learned from the speakers that I can apply to growing my business RIGHT NOW, and with new connections made with other attendees that I feel will compliment my business and enrich my life. Thanks Cathy, I’ll definitely be back next year!” Dawn Mena, www.getcaptivatingcopy.com
