The Lisa Bean Podcast

You're not struggling with sales - you’re struggling to have an impact at a big enough scale to make sales. In this week’s video, I’m breaking down what’s really going on when you’re not making enough money in your business — and how to fix it. This is not another “sales hack” video. It’s about learning to have a real impact on people, before they ever pay you. That's marketing! If people can feel the impact you can have on them i.e if you’ve already helped them see themselves differently, think differently, or take new action, then you’ll won't have to convince them to...

Don't cheat, just market (like this!) show art Don't cheat, just market (like this!)

The Lisa Bean Podcast

If you were to ask me how to make more sales in your business I’d say: stop trying to cheat the process and just market better. Marketing is the simple act of adding value to someone’s life before you ask them for anything in return. Examples of marketing done well: You’re a guest on a podcast of someone your future clients listen to. You’re talking about your journey, you’re sharing your wisdom, you’re helping people believe they can do it to. You write a LinkedIn post sharing the 3 biggest mistakes people make when approaching [your industry/topic], and you explain how to avoid...

The Lisa Bean Podcast

In 18 months, you won't know if that image, video or news clip is real or AI so be smart: start finding ways to show your clients just how real you are, and you'll win more business. ↓     Before we came to Italy, I showed Lucy's daughter a photo of Lake Como. She said "No, that's AI", and I laughed. "Wait till you see it in real life", I said, "and then you'll know - that's real." I think it's happening already... We're doubting that content is real. Whilst this was once limited to photos and maybe some dramatically staged social media clips, it's now...

Most people are still writing SEO optimised content for Google… but the way we search is changing. Five key take aways for ranking in ChatGPT: ➔ AI responds to real prompts, rather than vague keywords and search terms. Think about full questions your clients would be asking ChatGPT and write questions to answer those more human prompts. ➔ Consistency builds authority — ChatGPT “reads” your homepage, bios, blogs, and news stories. Say the same thing across all of them to help create a consistent narrative about your business. ➔ Structure matters — Use clear H2s...

How to stop playing small - three practical strategies (that work!) show art How to stop playing small - three practical strategies (that work!)

The Lisa Bean Podcast

“Stop playing small” is terrible advice because no-one really knows what it means to play big, or how to approach it! When people talk about playing small, they usually mention things like: Not charging their worth Self-sabotaging Avoiding key projects and actions Not being visible Not going for their dreams!   Does that mean that playing big is the opposite of this: Charging your worth Letting yourself have the win! Tackling key projects and taking difficult actions Being visible and building your brand Going for your dreams!   Probably! But, I think we can go further. In...

Marketing = impact show art Marketing = impact

The Lisa Bean Podcast

I wish I could convey this one thing about marketing. MARKETING = IMPACT MARKETING = IMPACT MARKETING = IMPACT Posting isn't marketing if it doesn't open someone's thinking, influence a new behaviour, or challenge an old behaviour. Marketing is marketing when it has an impact on someone's life, and you become associated with that impact.  If we can get someone's attention, get them to pay attention to us, and share something that truly changes their life, then we're marketing. For this reason, simply posting isn't marketing. Marketing is more about building a connection between your brand...

"Who am I to do this?" is one of the most common forms of self-doubt we hear, often translated into: Who am I to do this?

In today's episode we're going to get into the detail of this self-doubt and imposter syndrome, and look at very practical ways you can overcome the feeling of 'who am I to do this'? 

We'll look at:

- How normal imposter syndrome is and how successful people confront the doubt when it arises.

- How to support yourself through 'self-coaching' and 'self-soothing', with some practical ideas for inspiring yourself back to meaningful action.

- How to spot and shift negative thoughts to change your whole focal point and vibration. You're allowed to have negative thoughts! Just don't make them the focus of your vibration.

- The importance of community, and surrounding yourself with positive people trying to grow.

- How to craft a positive narrative around who you are, what you're doing and who you're becoming.

- And how to change who you 'are' by changing your environment.

In this episode, you're going to become really intentional about your energy, your identity and how you respond to doubt and imposter syndrome. I hope you enjoy!
