Candice Bowles - Online Marketing Consultant

From: Candice Bowles, North Vancouver, British Columbia

Starting a business from scratch, is a difficult process. If it wasn’t, more people would run successful businesses and most wouldn’t fold within the first year.

For the new business owner, there are an overwhelming number of opportunities available to us, especially with the growth of online technologies. So many in fact, that it's almost impossible to know where to start, which tools you should use, when to use them and when you're better off not spending your time and money on them. How important is branding, a target market, a vision statement or a website?

The problem is not with the value or effectiveness of the various tools,
but knowing which tool your business needs most, at a particular time!

Add to the mix, the desire to create something unique and authentic - that reflects your values and your purpose, and that capitalizes on your strengths and doesn’t run you into the ground, and you’ve got your hands full!

Yes, it can be extremely difficult, if not impossible. But the rewards of loving the work you do, of knowing your life is making a difference in the way it was intended to and earning an income doing it, are worth fighting for. Right?

Hi, I’m Candice Bowles, online marketing consultant and business coach. I’ve studied and been working in information technology and business since the outset of my career. In the last few years, I’ve been neck-deep in online marketing, business building and coaching.

Online marketing and business building is an interesting and evolving field which can be as intimidating as it is rewarding. This is why I’m a firm believer in learning the ropes from the experts.

As with most things in life, the difficulty in learning new things is not as much in the learning as it is in the implementing of what you learn! I’ve participated in a lot of excellent training, but even so, there were times where I needed an external viewpoint, a tool or a mentor to help me find the clarity I needed. In isolation it can even be difficult to recognize our strengths, and that’s just the starting place.



PLEASE! Don’t do what I did!

Right at the outset of my coaching practice, (enthusiasm running high, entrepreneurial experience running low) I remember spending hours and hours putting together a brochure to advertise my services. It took me days trying to decide on what graphics to use, what to say, how to say it and even where to leave it. Today I know why such a simple task took so long to accomplish. In order to put the brochure together, I needed some key information: who I wanted to help, what their needs were, how my unique services could help them, what packages and pricing I would offer etc.

The problem was, I wasn’t clear on any of those things. So although the technicalities of putting a brochure together were secondary, it was easier to feel productive finessing the brochure than it was trying to find clarity on the pieces I really needed. No surprise - the brochures made NO impact.

This is just one small example of my misdirected time and efforts, and there were many! Until I started getting clear on these 8 steps, I would hop from one “priority” to the next, working hard, but not making a lot of progress. Instead, the process was slow, frustrating and demoralizing.

Since then I’ve spent thousands of dollars, years of training and innumerable hours experimenting with different approaches. I have gleaned the essentials you’ll need to put together a great business that’s tailored to YOU.

And I’ve done it in a step-by-step way, so you do the right things first and so that every step you complete makes the next step easier and speeds up your progress.



In addition to that, I’ve designed “fill in the blank” type tools, questionnaires, tables, templates and examples to make the process fun and engaging. I’ve put all this together in a 75 page AWARD WINNING Action Guide: 8 Steps to Creating NEW Business.

Every one of these steps will be a pillar to any future business you create.

Even if you’re already in business, incorporating these elements into your business will fast-forward you towards to your goals, simplify your decision making and stimulate new product ideas that leverage your time and expertise.



Very simply, there are 5 crucial points you MUST be clear on:

• You: if you don’t know what your strengths and weaknesses are you could set yourself up in a business that you are not good for! On the other hand if you can build a business based on your strengths - you have a much better chance of being excellent at it and have a much easier time being successful!
• Your Clients: you need to be clear on who your clients are, what they need and where you can find them. With that knowledge, it is much easier to create the products they want and need and you’ll be able to communicate with them more easily.
• Your Products: your products should be the natural intesection of your clients' wants or needs and your strengths. Both ingredients are essential for long term success.
• Your Plan: every business needs a map, so it knows where it wants to go, when to turn right, when to turn left and how to keep going in the right direction.
• Your Marketing: every business needs a way of communicating with the world. Marketing helps get the message of what you do and how you can help, to the people who need your services. Having a marketing strategy that consistently brings you and your clients together, that leverages your time and expertise and that isn’t expensive, is absolutely essential.

In addition to these 5 areas, make sure you’ve got the right supporting pieces in place:

• Your own, powerful and clear, business vision - as part of “Your Plan”, your business vision is like your “dream destination”. It inspires you to get up in the morning, helps you know when to stop for an opportunity and when to pass it by. (Saving you from wasting time and money on endeavours that won’t support your overall vision.)
• Your personal “network of support”, because when you’re deeply engrossed in the business creation process, having the birds eye view at the same time is nearly impossible!
• Your research - because without it you don’t know what your clients really want or where to find them! (This doesn’t have to be a drag, there are fun ways to find answers to your questions!)

• The 8 Steps to Creating NEW Business - The Action Guide, 75 page binder.
• Comprehensive Session Notes of every session. These are great to skim through or search when you want to find a particular point or passage that we covered during a certain audio session. They also give you a clear guidance on the actions to take before the next session!
• Email Support. If you get stuck on something or would like feedback on your work, you're invited to email Candice!
  
• Strategic and engaging tools to help you create and boost your business with many NEW IDEAS!
• Special "BYBN Graduate" Pricing for our Ezine and Strategic Support Coaching Packages.

• Discover new ways of generating income, using your innate abilities
• Avoid making choices that unnecessarily drain your resources
