FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

GET TO KNOW LENORA 

“Are we a match?”

Yes, if…you’re a corporate-savvy, experienced, entrepreneurially minded professional, exec, or artist who wants MORE revenue, qualified leads, clarity, freedom, impact, confidence, and big-picture thinking . . . and LESS overwhelm, isolation, struggle, and distractions.

If…you’ve enjoyed growing and using your leadership skills. If…you’re clear about what you want to achieve. If…you’re ready to run your own business as well as you ran someone else’s. 

And if…you want to prosper on your own terms®.




“Why should I work with you, Lenora?”

Tired of not making progress on big goals? Tired of running someone else’s business? Tired of customers and projects picking you rather than you picking them? Tired of doing things that don’t generate revenue? Tired of speaking with too many unqualified buyers? Tired of languishing sales, confidence, productivity, and decision making? 

That’s why.




“Why should I care about your network?”

Once we begin working together, I become your tireless advocate and matchmaker. I’ll consistently connect you with other successful entrepreneurs across disciplines. Smart people who help each other fast-track results, collaborate on projects, confide in one another, and share best practices. Accountants, creatives, techies, graphic designers, copywriters, fashion designers, interim CXOs, developers, investors, financial advisors, marketing gurus, land advisors, speaking coaches, sales consultants, and more.

“Why will you help me when other business consultants failed?”

Loads of reasons. I’ve been doing this a long time, across most industries. I use a fully customized, integrated approach to turbo-charge the economic impact of your passions—and design a predictable marketing plan that fills pipelines and creates sustainable value.

Talk to people in my network to see for yourself. Actually, that’s a requirement before we even begin working together. As I want to know about you, I want you to know about me—so you clearly see the value of our partnership.

Check out the Learning Library to see for yourself how my entrepreneurial clients prosper on their own terms.




“What kind of time commitment should I expect to make?”

About an hour-ish a week for our meetings. About 8 hours a month of homework (which consists of tasks you should be doing anyway to grow your business).

And in teaming up, you’ll integrate a solid structure. Acquire a tireless accountability ally. Harness experiential learning techniques to accelerate results. Do the right things, at the right times—and nothing more




“What will we do together?”

Whatever it takes to achieve your business and revenue goals: Marketing and product development, next-level growth strategies, messaging, sales and ideal client selection, ops planning, biz dev, and marketing funnels.

All so you can…

Build a pipeline of leads. Know what to charge. Know how to speak about your business. Write proposals. Find like-minded people to partner with. Hire (and fire) clients on your own terms. Convert more leads to paying clients. And manage clients (not have them manage you). All while staying true to your boundaries (which we’ll determine).




“When will I see results?”

It depends on your variables. Got a current pipeline of leads? What’s going on with it? Or maybe we’re starting from scratch? Whatever your parameters, we’ll determine the best way to generate quick results for your business. And develop a plan for the long term.

You will earn back more than enough to pay my fee.

The real question: How serious are you about doing the work? That’s what matters most.




“What's your business philosophy, and why should I care?”

Consider the hit reality TV show Shark Tank. It leads us to think we need a million-dollar idea to make it. That success is an all-or-nothing venture. But that sends the wrong message. 

Being a successful entrepreneur is not about risking the family fortune. It’s about getting to work, doing the right things, and learning from an expert. You want reality TV? Or reality?

The reality is there are more thousand-aires achieving personal and business goals, and living with more freedom and ease. Enjoying more time with family. Living in line with their values. Not losing sleep over medical insurance. Getting kids through college. Taking bucket-list vacations.

Helping entrepreneurs do what they’re built for is my philosophy. You’ll see. 




“Can you still help me if I hate sales and marketing?”

Actually, most people don’t hate sales and marketing. They hate the ideas in their head about sales and marketing.

Working together, we’ll reconfigure and reformat what sales and marketing mean in the context of your business. Is it teaching? Matchmaking? Publishing? Designing? Hosting webinars? We’ll discover, uncover, and activate your strongest skills.




“What do you require of me?”

That you’re ready to learn. Ready to execute. Ready to speak your mind, so we can course correct. And…that you’re ready to push through doubts and limiting beliefs. 

You’ll do the work. I’ll do the same.




“Why do you charge more than other business consultants?”

Because I know my proven process generates results, fast. I have a long track record, with a long list of successful entrepreneurs (who you’ll talk to in advance). My fees are based on the value clients receive. Soon, you’ll be saying the same about your value.




“Why do you charge in full up front?”

Because I’m fully committed from day one to helping you achieve your goals. By paying up front, you’re committing too. Together, we’ll achieve results. So you prosper on your own terms.

DON’T GAMBLE WITH YOUR BUSINESS CONSULTANT

“I’m tired of doing things that don’t generate revenue. Tired of speaking too much with too many unqualified buyers. Tired of struggling how to position & market my business. I want someone who’s figured this out, done this for their own business, and for tons of their clients. Show me how, now. I’m willing to do the work and ready to achieve results—fast.”

Well said. Let’s make that happen.
