Dear Fellow Entrepreneur,

If you are like many business owners, you are great at working hard, juggling many balls at the same time and working long hours with your nose to the grindstone, hoping to eventually get ahead. You work as hard as you can. And you tell yourself that one day you will be able to relax, that it will get easier. And THEN you will have more time for the fun.

You are probably already trying to take charge of your business. You are setting goals. You have the best intentions, start a to-do list, and read time management books. Perhaps you have even worked with a coach. But none of these techniques have been lasting solutions and all efforts get abandoned eventually.

The initial excitement of starting a business on your own is wearing off and you are starting to wonder if you’ll ever reach your financial goal, if you’ll ever feel truly fulfilled in your work. Fear creeps in and at times you find yourself in a state of inertia. Instead of taking action, you feel paralyzed by your fear.

Overwhelm is a by-product of success. But when business overwhelm overwhelms your life, you live on adrenaline. You confuse busyness with productivity. You might feel like you are treading in circles. You know you need to find direction, but you can’t seem to find it on your own. You need to simplify, but you don’t know where to start.

As an entrepreneur, you are in a unique position to enjoy a life of freedom and excitement while creating balance in your life. But to do that, you need direction, clarity and a plan. You need to know what you are great at, what you can delegate and what you need to learn in order to move your business forward in the right direction.

BALANCE AND SUCCESS ARE ATTAINABLE!

Sound too good to be true? It’s not. The key to having a thriving business and a balanced life is to change your mindset from that of a business owner to that of a business leader. This is the first step towards becoming what I call a “High Impact Leader.” When you’re a High Impact Leader, people will want to follow YOU. They’ll be inspired by you, and look at you as someone they want to emulate. You will attract and retain clients much more easily, thereby increasing your profits. You’ll live in balance, with high integrity and dignity.

Whether you have been in business for a few years or you run a seasoned company, the internal mind shift that allows you to transition from a small business owner to a small business leader is essential for success in the 21st century!

When you work from a place of balance, focus, and purpose, you will to be a steward of your business AND your life success. You will not only attract all the business you need, but you will also feel more connected with your family, your support staff, your clients and yourself. You have probably read about dramatic leadership changes in large corporations. But do you know how long it takes for ONE CEO to change the climate of a huge enterprise? Years! In comparison, you, as the owner of a small business can change the climate overnight, guaranteed!

But if I make it sound so easy, please understand that it wasn’t always like that for me...

In fact, if I’ve touched you with my words, it’s because I have been just where you are today. I have been in your shoes, suffered the same frustrations, spent enormous sums of money, lost courage, played small, worked hard, and all for mediocre results.

But I am jumping ahead. Let me tell you my story:

My earliest childhood memories were about seeing my dad stressed, overwhelmed, frustrated and unfulfilled by his business. Early on, that taught me to think that financial success meant living with high levels of stress at work and at home. I learned a lot about running a business from my father. But I lived in a home where pent-up frustration from working long hours was often expressed in unpleasant ways. I grew up promising myself that I would never live like that, that the price of success was too big. I thought that business success required endless hours, hard work, high levels of stress, and always accommodating the needs of the business with no time for oneself, family or friends.

Years later, I was creating my own business with the intention of not repeating old patterns. And I purposely limited my success out of fear of losing my life to my business. I, too, confused busyness with productivity and let overwhelm take over my life and my work. Within a few short years, I was so tired that even though I actually had a long waiting list of clients, I ended up closing the business and losing quite a bit of money. For a while, I was so discouraged by the challenges of entrepreneurship that I took a job—a very stable, safe and comfortable job. In meantime, I participated in my husband’s huge entrepreneurial success, paying a huge personal price.

Still, the entrepreneurial spirit kept tugging at my heart. When extreme life changes forced me to look at the rest of my life, I knew that I didn’t want to work for anybody but myself. I would do whatever it took to figure out how to create a thriving business and, at the same time, create a thriving life. And so I set out to find the solution to creating a successful business, dream big, really big, setting high financial goals and still have balance in my life.

Over time, I did a lot of research and discovered some amazing techniques and tools that I had never heard about before. I have implemented them in my own business and life and they WORK! Today, I just love my days at work. I love having time to go on hikes, be with my friends and support my two girls emotionally and financially. I attract clients easily and love my relationship with them. I have a fabulous staff and I know that they give me their very best every day. I am now well on the way to meeting my financial goals and I have a rich life! My children don’t pay the price of my business success. On the contrary, I hope that they see me as their role model. I hope that I can inspire them to become mindful, powerful, prosperous and joyful entrepreneurs themselves one day.

For right now though, I am concentrating all of my efforts on teaching this system to small business owners such as designers, photographers, consultants, developers, trainers, brokers, speakers and retail business owners. My clients have discovered that creating thriving businesses while living rich lives is not hard IF you have the right tools and follow four key principles.

You have worked too hard for too long. And now perhaps you are overwhelmed and distracted by too many opportunities that come your way. Or you are worried about dreaming really big and creating a truly successful business. If so, then get ready for a change. If you transform your mindset from that of a small business owner to that of a small business leader, you can expect these results:

• You’ll see your success so crystal clear, so powerful and irresistible that it eliminates all doubt.
  
  
• You’ll laugh more often every day, anywhere. Your renewed excitement for your work, your family and your life gives you plenty of reason to feel joyful and grateful.
  
  
• You’ll enjoy a good book without an ounce of guilt. Your days will be more balanced. You will get more done in shorter amount of time. You’ll know that renewal time is the key for sustainable success.
  
  
• You’ll make decisions quickly and easily because you’ll know what you stand for. You’ll know when to say “No” and when to take advantage of a great opportunity.
  
  
• Your clients will return to you over and over again. And they’ll refer others to you. You’ll know what the true purpose of your business is. You’ll make all your decisions based on your personal values.
  
  
• Your business will stand out from the competition. Your clients will trust you. They’ll feel well taken care of in a world where trust is being violated daily.
  
  
• You’ll be inundated with employment applications from top-quality candidates. Whether you have full-time employees or a part-time virtual team, your support staff needs more than money from their jobs today. Your business will provide them with an opportunity to grow as a person, to work for a cause larger than themselves.
  
  
• You’ll feel fulfilled. Maybe for the first time in your life, you’ll feel grounded. You’ll feel strong. And you’ll know why you are here. You’ll impact your world in a profound way.
  
  
• Your profits will rise as you work less. High Impact Leaders lead others to higher productivity, prevent turn-over, empower those working for them to give 110%. You’ll create lasting, significant relationships with your clients. And they will stay loyal to you and your business.
  
  
• Your staff will be happy and highly productive. You’ll create an environment of trust and growth. You’ll lead with compassion but set high standards that can be reached. You’ll foster increasing competence and offer opportunities to learn. You’ll create an efficient and fun space where life and work blends into one.
  
  
• You’ll feel like your life counts. As a leader of your life, you’ll consciously create a legacy that impacts your world now and later.
  
  
• You’ll have fun again. It’s as simple as that!

BUT WHY THE HIGH IMPACT BUSINESS SYSTEM?

Yes, you are right. There are plenty of good coaches and consultants. Hundreds of them. There are great books on leadership. Thousands of them. But, unfortunately, there is very little information on leadership for small business owners. And there is very little information on how to prepare oneself for the ever-faster changes of the 21st century. Yes, there are books telling you what these trends are. But none tell how to turn those challenges into opportunities for the small business owner.

If you want to find out how effective leadership skills can benefit you in this new economy, then the High Impact Business system is perfect for you!

WHAT MAKES THE HIGH IMPACT BUSINESS SYSTEM DIFFERENT FROM ALL THE OTHER COURSES AND BOOKS?

The truth is, even if you bought every book, attended every leadership or management course, you’d never implement the techniques because they wouldn’t feel like they apply to YOU. All the techniques and tools don’t mean anything if you don’t see the relevance to YOUR life and work. And training without follow-up coaching is nothing more than entertainment. We all need continuing support to create lasting change.

How many home-study courses and books are cluttering up your office that you have never read or worked through?

AT LEGACY IN ACTION, WE TAKE A DIFFERENT APPROACH.

Becoming a leader at work AND at home is like growing a strong tree… it all starts with the right ingredients.

What does a tree need? The right amount of water, sun, nutrition and soil. Similarly, you need the right ingredients to become a leader of your life. You need balance, focus, purpose and relationship to grow strong roots. Because a business can only grow as strong as the person running it!!!

Throughout our coaching programs, the focus is on YOU, the business owner. You will learn techniques, motivational methods, sales tools, and time management methods. But much of our work together is based on creating changes in you from the inside out. In addition to leaving the course with a whole set of new business tools and life tools, you will have a mindset that allows you to create a successful business and a great life.

SO WHAT MAKES THIS A REALLY DIFFERENT SYSTEM?

Three things:

1. Most coaches are there to support you, whatever your goals are. But they don’t give you information on why you need to acquire certain qualities.
   
   
2. Most books are about what is needed to succeed, not about how to go about accomplishing it.
   
   
3. Most consultants tell you what to fix in your business but almost never give you the tools necessary to go about making these changes.
   

THE HIGH IMPACT BUSINESS SYSTEM GIVES YOU ALL THREE: THE WHY, THE WHAT AND THE HOW!

I define High Impact Leaders as business owners who are persons of influence, integrity, honesty, courage, authenticity and effectiveness. They care deeply about the people they touch, the profitability of their business and about the world at large. High Impact Leaders are financially successful because of who they are and how they conduct their lives.

Still not sure how this all works? Here are some more details:

HOW ARE THE COACHING SESSIONS CONDUCTED?

All sessions are conducted from the convenience of your home or office. All you have to do is to pick up the phone and call me. No traveling expenses and no time wasted. I know that you are busy “doing” life and your time is precious. But our coaching sessions are only part of your learning experience. Check out all the support materials included in your package.

IS THERE A GUARANTEE?

Absolutely. I am so convinced that this system will revolutionize the way you live life and do work that I offer an unconditional guarantee. I promise to deliver first class information and support you in a very professional and caring manner. You commit to taking the time to learn, to reflect, to connect and to implement. Together we’ll be able to do amazing things.

Still, if you find that your expectations are not fulfilled, or if you were hoping for something different, and you would like to discontinue our partnership, you may do so at any time, with no further financial responsibility and you will keep all the material without any questions asked. We are here to help you!

HOW CAN I SIGN UP?

If you wish, you can compare all three of our programs to see which one would be best for you.

STILL NOT SURE?

No problem. Click here and take this little quiz, the answers will let you know if this is the right program for you. You might also gain more clarity about your commitment to change because this program is not a get-rich-quick scheme. My fundamental belief is that success (any kind of success) comes when you develop yourself beyond where you are today. Your business will only be successful when you are successful as a person.

You need the commitment to do the work. I just finished several huge projects for Legacy In Action and I had ignored my own need for balance and renewal. I saw the negative effect IMMEDIATELY! I felt less connected to my children, less excited about work, my support staff felt discouraged and my phone didn’t ring as much. After a day of reflection, I reminded myself that I need to walk my own talk if I want others to know that my words are truth. I re-committed to living a life of High Impact and I connected with a very influential person the very next day!

So, if you think that you could just listen to my CD occasionally and watch your business to take off, this system is not for you. Any of the three programs has the potential to change your life, at home and at work if you implement what you learn!

But don’t worry, you don’t have to give up anything you don’t want to. Nor will you have to work extremely hard at it. It can be fun, feel like play, make you smile, make you feel accomplished, proud of yourself. You will start to know that the best security in life is not the money in the bank (which can disappear in a second) but the insights and commitment to being a person of influence for a business of High Impact. That is security!

World-class motivational speaker Jim Rohn said: “We all suffer from one of two pains. The pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The pain of discipline weighs ounces while the pain of regret weighs tons.”

Come join us! Don’t live a life of regrets. I am inviting you to create an amazing life of balance, profit, joy and meaning for lasting business success in the 21st century! But wait a minute, maybe you want to read on to find out who is NOT the right candidate for this program:

WHO IS THE HIGH IMPACT SYSTEM NOT FOR?

If you’ve read this far, you know the Entrepreneurial Breakthrough program is for you if you’re an independent professional, entrepreneur or small business owner who wants to create a highly successful business, have true balance in their lives, wants to have a positive impact on their world, treat their support team so that working together is harmonious, productive, fun and very rewarding.

It’s not for you if...

• You know exactly how to move your business ahead and have a strategic plan that allows you to easily move into action every day
  
  
• You are never bothered by any doubts, resistance or fears that success might take further over your life
  
  
• You find it easy to work only 6 hours a day and you are always fully present at home with your family or friends
  
  
• Every interaction with your clients is enjoyable, productive, and very rewarding
  
  
• You have a long waiting list of clients just so eager to work with you
  
  
• You have time and motivation to exercise daily, keeping you slim and fit
  
  
• You have an organized desk, the files on your computer are well organized and you never handle any paperwork more than once
  
  
• Lastly, you find time to read at least one good book a week and have money for an all-day spa treatment or golf outing at least once a month

This may be a bit exaggerated. But if you meet all the above criteria, please call me, I would love to hire you as MY coach! When you read this, though, didn’t a great picture develop in your head? A picture of how life would be if you weren’t at work 12-16 hours a day? A picture of energy, fitness, decisiveness, a sense of purpose and control over your life and work? It is possible to get very close to your ideal picture of success. It is! I have done it and so have many of my clients.

Ok, then for the rest of you real mortals with whom I would love to work…

The Entrepreneurial Breakthrough Program is a complete coaching and learning experience. Once you sign up for it, you’ll get a link to a Web page where you can get started immediately.

TWO MONEY-BACK GUARANTEES:

Just so you don’t have to worry about making the wrong investment, I offer you my two unique Money-Back Guarantees: I’m so confident that my system will change you live your life and the way you do business that I’m willing to guarantee it, 100%. In fact, I’ll give you two 3-month guarantees:

1. First, if any time within 3 months of your purchase you’re not completely satisfied with the coaching programs, I will return a full refund of the purchase price. No ifs, ands or buts. You’ve got to be happy and you’ll keep the learning material.
   
   
2. Second—read this amazing guarantee carefully—you also get my “1 Extra Hour A Day” Money-Back, No-Risk Guarantee! When you put my formula to work for you during our time together, you will gain at least 1 hour of time you didn’t have before. That means I guarantee that you’ll work more focused, you’ll be able to delegate more, make the right decisions quicker and spend much less time in inertia due to overwhelm. 1 hour a day is 5 hours a week, which adds up to 2.5 days a month, or 1 extra month per year! So, everything is guaranteed. I’m taking all the risk for you. You have absolutely no risk at all! How can you possibly lose?
