Getting famous is all about who you know...

You know, I’ve seen this coming for a long time. There’s something about platform building and creating a successful online business that begs support. For some years now, I’ve been selling an ‘ultimate’ guide to platform-building (which is creating a following and a place to stand in the market.) And somehow, somewhere ang the line, our technical culture has turned a corner. These big mega-volumes of information are just no longer as desirable to people.

Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me?

My 285 page guide to platform building, Get Known Now, is not flying off the shelves the way it used to. But the requests I get now are mainly for both group and private coaching. People want that hands-on support … they want someone to brainstorm with, get feedback from, get guidance from when it comes to building the brand and the business.

And frankly, that’s what we do best here at Get Known Now. The info glut out there is demanding we deliver more hands on support, and so we are. This is what 2007 will see as our primary product offerings:

Two coaching groups, GKN Extraordinary Business Builders followed by the GKN Online Blast Off which are designed to go hand in hand and both will launch in the next few months.

In the Business Builders, which will launch in mid-March, small business and solo pros (including coaches, consultants, artists, healers, etc.) discover not only their unique brand … they’ll break through the stuff that’s kept them inclined to hide and stay small. They’ll develop a market profile, brand, unique selling proposition, blue ocean strategy, product ideas, and keyword optimization – all the stuff you build a really solid business with. We’re just finishing up the beta version of this class and I’m really encouraged – this is the third iteration of this kind of group coaching I’ve designed, and this time I really think we’ve got it right!

So many good brands and excited biz owners are coming out of this it’s just awesome. Watch for news of when we go live with the registration for the full launch of that program in the next few weeks. It’s a really affordable way to get my live coaching AND the group support you need to build a really exciting business.

Hand-in-hand with is a follow up program which takes all the cool stuff you developed in the Business Builders and ‘blasts it off’ on the Web. You’ll walk away with a blog/site, an e-commerce interface, ezine, bonuses, podcast (optional) and even an automated Net marketing plan that makes it all just ‘go’. Woo-hoo! I’m REALLY psyched about this follow up … and this program is in test starting mid February with folks who did the beta version of my Business Builder’s program.

Just thought you might want to know what I’m up to … in between blog posts!

PS. I do also coach privately if anyone out there doesn’t ‘do’ groups.
