What is the fee for picking my brain?
Good question.

Brain picking conversations are free 😲.
Why?
I've established processes that guarantee my benefit w/ any interaction.

Let's take a look under the hood and discuss a few strategies that I actively use, shall we?

Thread
Strategy #1: Free w/ non-refundable "seat deposit"

Prospect pays a fee to reserve their spot on my calendar.
If prospect is a no-show, the fee is non-refundable.

If prospect shows, they get a refund.

If we decide to work together, the fee is applied to the service offering
Strategy #2 Free w/ testimonial
Prospect provides an honest breakdown of our "pick my brain" session with the understanding that I will leverage this social proof to work with larger clients.

(This has turned out to be my most powerful approach)
Strategy #3: Free w/ "Invite your Colleagues" Referral

Simple. Invite 3 people who would benefit from a conversation.
A simple form is created for Prospect to enter information.

When I deliver a good job, the Prospect is enthusiastic to do this.
Strategy #4: Ruthless time management
Picking my brain happens on my terms and my schedule.
I don't have 15 minute calls that go on for hours.

Earlier on in my business career, I was terrible at maintaining this discipline.
Now this mindset is fully dialed-in.
These are but a few proven strategies that work over and over again.
They can be applied to public speaking, podcasting, and other forms of delivery.

I have a paid monthly report that will give you the blueprint on strategies such as these. Interested? DM me.
