Which Jane Are You?

April 22, 2010 Comments

Yesterday I sent out an exciting survey link so that you could find out what type of Jane you are.

I’ve teamed up with my friend Michele DeKinder-Smith of Jane Out of the Box. Her company has spent the past two years interviewing close to 1,000 women business owners about their definitions of success. About their daily struggles. And about their dreams. And in the process, she observed some important patterns. She then applied rigorous research methods and statistics to her data and uncovered five unique types of female entrepreneurs. Each type has specific strengths – and specific challenges and opportunities as well. (In fact, you might have opportunities staring at you RIGHT NOW you’re not taking advantage of because you’re not able to “see” them. But you’re in luck because all of that can change!)

To find out what type of Jane you are is completely free AND it comes with awesome BONUSES:

1) Free call with Ciara & Michele – Wednesday April 28th at 2pm MST/ 4pm EST called “What Kind of Rockstar Wedding Planner Are You?”

2) Free copy of Michele’s book: “See Jane Succeed”- This book tells you all about the Jane’s and how you can benefit from the knowledge of knowing which Jane you are and boost your business by making plans that fit your type (rather than trying to be who you’re not!)

3) Free set of mp3 audios from Ciara & Michele on each Jane type (you’ll receive these soon after our free call next Wednesday) – We’re going to go through each Jane type and I’m going to make suggestions on what you can do as a wedding planner to maximize your business potential now that you know what type of Jane you are.

HUGE BONUS: I’m asking about pricing in this survey… the biggest question I hear at every industry convention is “What do you charge?” We did a secret poll at Rockstar Wedding Planner LIVE 2010 and it was mega revealing. This time we’re asking everyone on this list to reveal what they charge through our super confidential survey and I’m going to reveal the results to everyone! So the more planners that participate the better our results will be…and I know you all want to know….click here.

Take the survey now!

Knowing what type of Jane you are means that you can plan and grow your business in a way that suits the lifestyle that will make you the most happy. It will also help me restructure Rockstar Wedding Planner to offer resources that you specifically need as in the survey we ask you some questions so that you can help me grow too.

This survey is completely confidential and I’ll only receive the results as a whole, not your individual results, that’s private for you. So don’t wait! Take this cool survey now by clicking here.

Love and wedding planning success,

Ciara

Curious What This is All About?

March 24, 2010 Comments

sign up nowI just wrapped up Rockstar Wedding Planner LIVE 2010. It was an event filled with amazing wedding planners who are ready to take big leaps in their business and shine as the stars that they are. I am so proud of all that we accomplished.

One of the most touching moments for me was when my 2009 Rockstar Wedding Planner Legends took to the stage to share their success stories with the other planners in attendance. I am so proud of their triumphs over the last year. I wanted to share with you all they’ve accomplished being a part of my 6 Figure Wedding Planner Club at the Legend level so I’ve posted a video for you to watch by clicking here.

If you know that this is your year to play a bigger game and to step into your star power the Rockstar Wedding Planner 6 Figure Club is for you. This is the only wedding planner mastermind program designed by a wedding planner for wedding planners. The inaugural program last year was revolutionary.

This year I am opening up applications for the 2010 program at 2 levels. There is the Legend level and the Hall of Fame level. Both include one on one coaching with me over a year, group retreats with the other participants, branding with Couture Consulting and much more. To view all the details of each level and to determine which is the right fit for you click here.

PLUS, tomorrow, Wednesday March 24th I’m joining forces with my friends, Kristy Chenell and Katie Hess of Couture Consulting, to bring you a special free teleseminar called,

“Discover The Power of Combining Proven, Income Generating Marketing Strategies With A Timeless, Innovative Brand Strategy and Make 2010 Your Year to Shine As A Rockstar Wedding Planner”

In this call we will cover:
•Why traditional marketing isn’t working to attract brides anymore and how you can use low cost to no cost methods to attract the exact bride you want to work with
•How your brand is more than just a logo and why it’s such a key piece of attracting your perfect bride
•Why your pretty website isn’t making you any money (and might be the wrong kind of pretty) AND how you can change it
•The power of combining marketing and branding and the success you can experience in your business

You can sign up for this free call and watch the video I mentioned above by clicking here.

Love and wedding planning success,

Ciara

What Did You Want To Be When You Grew Up?

November 20, 2009 Comments

While I’m still recovering from my whirlwind speaker circuit I’m off to my old high school, Strathcona Tweedsmuir School to speak again. This time the presentation is much shorter but just as important. I’m speaking to grade 11 students about choosing a career as an entrepreneur.

You see, they’re all asking themselves, “What do I want to be when I grow up?”

When you’re trying to decide what you want to do with your life and how you want to invest your time it’s important to hear from experts who have gone through experiences in that field or endeavor. They can shed some light on what you can expect. It’s even better when they can tell you what to avoid and what to concentrate on… you can save yourself a lot of costly mistakes.

(Believe me I wish I’d had someone tell me, hey kid, don’t take that computer programming university class, can’t you see you were meant to be a wedding planner?)

But just as I’m sharing my knowledge of being an entrepreneur with the future leaders of our world, I’m sharing my knowledge with you too. I want you to learn from my tragedies and triumphs on the road to becoming a 6 figure wedding planner. That’s what I want you to sign up for my free teleseminar “6 Figure Wedding Planner Secrets” by clicking here.

It’s happening on Monday, November 23rd and with all the speaking I’ve been doing lately we already have over 300 wedding planners registered to be on the call. We don’t have a lot of lines left but I really think it’s important that you’re on this call… it’s going to mean a lot to your business growth in the next 12 months.

It’s not too late- click here.

Wrapping Things Up

November 19, 2009 Comments

31I just returned home from Turks & Caicos where I spoke to 150 wedding planners at the Wedding Planner’s Institute of Canada. Last week I was in Indianapolis at the Association of Bridal Consultants Conference where I spoke to 300 wedding planners. When I spoke to each of these groups I described some of the strategies I used to take my business to making 6 figures in just 3 years. But it just wasn’t enough time for me to share all I wanted to with these groups so I’m hosting a free teleseminar on Monday November 23rd @ 2pm MST called, “6 Figure Wedding Planner Secrets.” Click here to sign up.

Even if you weren’t at either of these conferences I would like to give you a chance to learn some of my secrets too. I am on a mission to change the wedding planning industry and help more and more wedding planners charge what they’re worth. We’re never going to be taken seriously if we keep charging $400 for wedding day coordination.

One of the things that I really stressed to the attendees at both of these conferences is that it truly is possible to be a full time wedding planner. In fact, both my husband and I work full time in our business. AND it’s possible to continue to grow and evolve your business no matter what level you’re at. That’s why I want you to be on my call, “6 Figure Wedding Planner Secrets,” to give your business a boost as we head into 2010.

I also just wanted to share with you this great picture of 3 of my Rockstar Wedding Planner Legends, Wanda Graham, Alice Goetschel, Tonya Shadoan and me in Indy. These ladies are rising to the top so quickly!

You Can Do This Too!

September 27, 2009 Comments

I’m writing to remind you about my free teleseminar that’s happening on Monday September 28th at 2pm MST/ 4pm EST called “5 Ways to Renovate Your Wedding Planning Business and Earn More Money Without Exhaustion, Frustration and Worry.”

When I saw the economy getting funky I knew that I needed to renovate my business to prepare for the storm and I did just that and my business has continued to grow and prosper while I see many others going out of business. I count my blessings that in September alone I’ve signed not one, not two, but three… YES 3, $10,000+ wedding planning clients. And while others have been shutting their doors, I’ve been opening new ones by expanding into the Los Angeles market and we already have clients coming on board with us. I’ve doubled what I made over the entire last year except this year I’ve done it from January- September. I still have 3 more months to go!

And I want to show you the 5 steps I’ve taken to renovate my business, get back to basics and make a big impact in wedding planning.

This call is my gift to you and completely free. All you need to do is CLICK HERE to sign up and you’ll receive the call in information. But hurry, we have limited lines available for this call AND THERE IS NO RECORDING. So you need to be on this call LIVE to hear my business renovating success tips.

See you on the call!

Love,

Ciara
