Pick our brains...

Yes...we want you to pick our brains...face to face! 

One of the best featuresour coaching program offers are the Office Hours. 

These are specific times where a coach will be online for the entire hour and you can just pop in anytime during the hour, 🗣 ask your question, and then move forward.

You can find the availability here

I love these times especially to chat philosophically about the direction you need to take, have more in-depth discussions on the background, discuss the why behind strategies, and more.


We even have specialty office hours to discuss your North Star best-fit client segments, as well as Mindset Mondays when you just get stuck and need to think about things in a different way.

We hope you take advantage of these office hours to keep you moving forward in your business!

Heads Up! Email Deliverability Issues...

⚡️ News you need to know...

You may have noticed that Growth Tools coaching emails have been quiet lately. Well...yikes...we've been sending 'em! 

We've learned that emails around the globe have been landing in spam folders (or outer space) 🚀 

This applies to the coaching and account emails we're sending to you...and many of our clients are experiencing the same thing. 

Somewhere in Silicon Valley land, a lever was flipped that changed the algorhythm causing more emails to go into spam. 

If you haven't heard from us in a while, be sure to check your spam folder (and we'll check ours for love notes from you   


 

Happy Independence Day

We hope you are having a lovely summer (or winter for our friends down under). 

We wanted to give you a heads up that this weekend, on July 2, 2021, we will be closed for the U.S. Holiday, Independence Day. 

We will reopen on July 6, 2021. 

We look forward to working with you soon.

Coaching Corner: 2 Ways To Ensure Partnership Success 

Matt discussed two important ways to make sure partnerships become your “go-to” lead generation and revenue strategy:

  • Use our follow-up sequence inside your Partnership Playbook
  • 70+% of your partnership success will come from using the full 3-step follow-up system we provide in your playbook (located in the “Watch Me Followup” action item)
  • Commit to sending 3-5 email pitches per week for the next 90 days to ramp up your efforts

You can do it, just like these folks have:

  1. $18,000 in coaching sales
  2. $0 to $100,000 in 12 months via partnerships
  3. $30k in new sales via podcast appearances
  4. $102k in new client sales via partnership

Mindset Moment 💪 

The importance of eliminating “shiny object syndrome” and distraction:

Why is this a problem? It’s keeping you from accomplishing your stated goals because you’re continuously distracted and confused by outside forces (those shiny looking “new” things to learn)

Symptoms to watch out for:

  • Your big list of business ideas don’t get executed 
  • You jump from one training to another, chasing the excitement of each new promise
  • You keep coming up with new ideas without following through on any of them
  • You buy marketing tools and subscriptions and never fully use one to its max potential

Negative effects of Shiny object syndrome:

  • You don’t hit your goals
  • Sleep issues, fatigue, and stress (because you KNOW you aren’t attaining goals and aren’t sure why)
  • Low productivity

Solutions:

  • Work to understand yourself better
  • Shiny object syndrome is a symptom that you’re not in tune with long-term goals
  • Avoid the “go big or go home” mentality
  • Shiny object syndrome often results because you’re trying to do too much all at once, or trying to swing home runs too often
  • Success comes from putting your head down (after making a plan that you’re committed to seeing through) and doing the small things each day that add up to big success long-term

Ask tough questions:

  • How does this new “thing” benefit me?
  • Why might it be “better” than what I’ve already committed to?
  • Do I have the resources or time to work on this?
  • After thinking about it, should I tuck it away for future use?

Success Stories

Here are some clients who have made great progress recently:

  • Maurice: I executed a major partnership, which included a whole new mastermind launch and generated over $66,000!
  • Marcio: I am excited to start working with a new client, just booked $8k. Let's go!
  • Bryan: After a prospective partner said no, I got creative and made a revamped pitch which got a YES. Our Discovery Call is today!
  • Katie: In March, I had 1016 new subscribers! I usually have about 300 per month, but since I put up my new upside-down home page and added a GoViral offer on the web page with the most traffic, the subscribers have gone bonkers. This is amazing!
  • Taylor: I got my first partnership
  • Michael: I completed a new partnership that was launched in a FB group with 7.1k followers!

Congrats to all of you. 

By the way, these were a few quick examples of some amazing results that have come in recently. Congrats to all of you who are working on your action items and getting results for your businesses!

Be recognized as one of America's fastest-growing companies!

We love to see the companies we work with get recognized for all their amazing work. So one of our goals is to see our clients on the Inc. 5000 list as one of the fastest-growing companies.

This instantly builds credibility for attracting clients and partners and hiring top employees. The benefits are so great that we want to help you win this honor. 

To qualify you will need to be able to answer yes for the following questions.  

  1. Did your company generate a minimum of $100,000 in revenue in 2017? 
  2. Did your company generate a minimum of $2 million in revenue in 2020?  
  3. Was your company generating revenue by March 31, 2017?  
  4. Is your company privately held, based in the United States, operating for profit, and independent (i.e. not a subsidiary)? 

Why should you apply

  • Feature In Inc. magazine: The top 500 companies will be featured in Inc. magazine and all 5000 companies will be featured on Inc.com.
  • Dedicated Company Profile on Inc.com: Every company that makes the list will receive a dedicated company profile on Inc.com. The Inc. 5000 company profiles receive millions of impressions every year.
  • Worldwide Spotlight: The elite Inc. 5000 list gives your company greater credibility with clients, investors, and the media often leading to meaningful connections to grow your business.
  • Team Recognition: This award publicly acknowledges your team's hard work and can help you recruit new employees.

What are my odds of making the list?

  • The Inc. 5000 only looks at revenue for two years, 2020 and 2017. If your company made more gross revenue in 2020 than it did in 2017 then your odds of making the list are very good!

Those are just a few of the reasons that Growth Tools will be applying as well! 

Right now, Inc. is accepting applications from privately held companies to win a spot on their Inc. 5000 list. Don't delay, the deadline is only 10 days away. 

You will need to disclose financial information for your company and it will be verified.

Please feel free to reach out if we can help in any way! We are happy to read over your company descriptions and give feedback. 

We are cheering you on!  

We are hiring a coach! 📢

We’re hiring a coach because we’ve maxed out what we're able to do without you on our team.

This role is a top priority in the company. Why? Because everything we do at Growth Tools centers around coaching our clients to grow their business. That means we have 1:1 relationships with each client, where we create and regularly review their marketing strategy, lend them a 2nd set of eyes to review their campaigns and hold them accountable to making progress.

We need to add another world-class coach to our team to help us continue to do this.

We’ve been coaching companies and solo-preneurs in marketing for 6 years. Along the way, we’ve discovered several new innovative and extremely effective methodologies.

Example: We’ve built a custom LMS system that allows us to track each client's progress daily and know exactly when they need help, a 2nd set of eyes or accountability.

If the idea of working 1:1 with CMOs, founders and aspiring entrepreneurs of some of the most impactful and fun companies in the world sounds exciting- keep reading. :)

This role is important because without you we will not have the capacity to continue expanding our coaching programs and reaching more clients. We need you to help us change the world 1 client at a time.

In this role you will learn:

1. How to provide expert advice and a 2nd set of eyes to 100's of coaching clients per month (without burning out or letting quality suffer)

2. How to run a world-class coaching program at scale

3. How to create marketing plans that 2x your clients businesses in less than 12 months

4. How to gently (but firmly) hold your clients accountable for taking the daily actions that you prescribe to hit their goals. You’ll walk away from your time at Growth Tools having grown your coaching skills and fully learn how to run a world-class coaching program with 100s of monthly clients.

Who will you work with?

You will work directly with me, Director of Product, our coaching team, Sales, Marketing adn Bryan our Founder

You will be the 5th coach on our team and you’ll start off part-time with a tract to be full-time within 12 months. We’re a small team of 12 employees and the fastest growing division in the company is the coaching team.

Where will you work?

We all work remotely and are scattered around North America from Vancouver to Cleveland, and Nashville to Birmingham.

That means you have the flexibility to work from home or a co-working location or to take the family to Peru for the summer and work from your terrace overlooking Machu Picchu.

You will own 2 numbers as a coach:

1. The response time of each ticket

2. The satisfaction of those responses rated by the clients

What does Growth Tools do and why?

Growth Tools provides the tools and training to help online businesses double their revenue in 1 year. Our tools consist of 10 SaaS products that we give away for free. Our training consists of a 1:1 coaching business, Growth University and a 4-week boot camp, Accelerator.

We believe that the world is a better place when people create and those creations are shared.

Example: I looooove Allbird shoes.

Guess how Allbirds came to exist? A random dude, Tim Brown, had the idea for them. And he had enough gumption and know-how to go out and actually make them. Now Allbirds is one of the most successful upstart shoe brands from the past 5 years.

The world is a better place when every Tim out there turns their ideas into real-life products.

That’s why our goal is to generate $100 million dollars in revenue for our clients. That is our measurement that these creations are being shared and real value is being generated as a result.

Do you want to be on the front lines and directly involved with growing some of the coolest and more innovative companies in the world?
