Falling for the wrong guru

The Aussie Hermit doesn’t spend much time on Facebook.

Other than answering client questions in my 15 Minute Client coaching group a few minutes per day, I’m pretty much non-existent on there.

However, there are times when I’m navigating to the coaching group that I see posts from other groups.

Specifically, other marketing/Facebook ad related groups.

And, when I scroll past I’m continually shocked at the type of questions people ask.

Shocked because these people are supposed to be marketing experts (more like “ex-spurts”) that help other businesses.

For example, often I’ll see questions like this:

“Hey guys, I just got my first Facebook ad client. What do I do next? Lol”

Or…

“Hey guys, I just sold a guy a $5k program to write a sales letter. What’re the best books to help me with this?”

It’s scary.

And that’s why when hiring an expert you have to be extremely careful.

Unfortunately, The Aussie Hermit was burned many times when starting out, which lost me tens of thousands and years of progress.

For example, my first business mentor took me through 12 coaching sessions (for $7k), where we didn’t work on any client attraction system at all.

In fact, half the sessions were basically like therapy because she wanted to talk about my parents for some reason.

But being so green I didn’t know any better.

Then, my second mentor (which ironically, my first mentor introduced me to), sold me on hype.

I believed I could go from being a person with basically no marketing skills to an expert that sold $50k+ packages.

Sad.

(Side note: He ripped off so many people I last heard had to flee to China to continue doing business)

Then my third mentor sold me a speaker program that promised to get me on stages, but when I got in I realised was not going to deliver on that at all.

Further to that, when asking for a refund he refused.

So you’ve got to triple check anyone you hire (including yours-hermity).

Look at their case studies.

Look at results they’ve achieved.

And ask lots of questions.

It sounds obvious, but we Coaches have a habit of falling for the wrong guru.

So due diligence is needed.

Because hiring a bad mentor is much more expensive than not hiring one at all.

Trust me.

With that being said…

As someone who’s been helping Coaches since 2013, I’ve come across pretty much every problem out there.

From choosing your niche to crafting your offer to building your list to running profitable ad campaigns (some as high as $25,000 per day) for all the known (and not-so-known) funnel types out there.

More importantly…

I’ve helped thousands of Coaches grow their businesses.

Many of these were earning under 6 figures. However, I’ve also had many clients earning over 6, 7 and some even at 8-figures.

Of course, I don’t want you to take my word for it.

If you’re considering hiring me - ask around.

Do your research.

Don’t blindly jump in because I’m touting how good I am.

I’m biased, obviously.

Then, when you find out I am legit - and you want to attract clients sending just one email per day - well, then, make sure to put your name on the waitlist here:
