Posted by Sundi Hayes in I love A-ha moments. They make my skin tingle, amp me up for the rest of the day and give me a sense of accomplishment at the close of business! My favorite thing about A-ha moments? They are F R E E. All that great stuff at no cost! Seriously.
To spread a little of the joy I thought I’d share my A-ha moment with you. For F R E E, of course! First we gotta do background…
There is this very cute, quirky, stimulating, emotiofying (is that just a word of mine?) blogger I know. I heart her. She makes me cry and laugh, which is really no small undertaking when on the Myers-Briggs scale my T-ness is pretty much maxed out. Meet Havi and her fluffy-feathered duck. I like to think I have Havi figured out – to the extent you can figure out any fellow blogger – Selma, on the other hand, is a duck of another color. Anyway, Havi wrote this really great ad about wanting a house. Let’s let that simmer for a while, shall we?
Jump ahead to lunch on Tuesday when I was at a networking event. The one thing that was different at this event from any other one is they talked about what they want! Yeah, they go around the room and talk about what each person needs. “I have a client who needs blah, blah. Please see me if anyone has idea where I could get one.” “I’m looking for a vendor I can share a booth with at the next convention I’m attending. If anyone else is going give me a call so we can talk.” You’re smart folks, you get the idea.
Now, it took a nod from the heavens to smash these two events together into the same area of my brain but it happened late Tuesday afternoon. A-ha!
So, now I’m wondering how many of you ask your peeps for exactly what you want in your business? I am really dying to know! (That would be what that comment section down there is for!)
Now, do you want to see the results of my A-ha moment? I’m launching it this Tuesday at a different networking event. I’m excited and I’ll let you know how it goes. Without further extraverting I’ll share my ad:
WANTED:
Soloists or Entrepreneurs who are:
- Weighed down by the operations work that takes them away from their passion
- Drained to the point that they are starting to doubt success can be achieved
- Skeptical that there will ever be an end to the workload so they can relax already!
Soloists or Entrepreneurs who want:
- Unmistakable division between work and life (a.k.a. to revive the social life that died when the business was born)
- The opportunity to work ON their passion all day, every day
- Steadfast, professional support with friendly human interaction
Qualified individuals must desire to build mutually beneficial relationships based on trust and respect. Foremost, they must desire to excel at their passion. Underachievers need not apply.
Curious professionals may contact Sundi D. Hayes, Chief Virtual Officer, at My Office Zilla by calling 816.585.1655 or visiting the website at www.MyOfficeZilla.com.
Wait! Before you run off to write an ad of your own, can I tell you what I love about mine?
Isn’t it great that this ad will appeal to not only specific people in my niche but also other desirable folks? My niche of Executive Coaches or Business Coaches or Trainers is pretty specific but that doesn’t mean my skills won’t work for many other people in many industries. Soloists and Entrepreneurs all feel similar pains around their business, right?
I’d be willing to bet I could walk into any networking event, pick 5 people at random and this want ad would make them all think of either themselves or a person they know! If you found it on the table you were sitting at would it make you say, “Hmmm.”
OK! You can go now! Write that ad and share it with me.
Nibbling away -
Sundi
