Events for Entrepreneurs

Relationships are how we truly impact the world. Yes, it's about our services and how we uniquely help others. But underneath that, it's about relational change. That's just how humanity works. So whatever we do - whatever our niche is - we need to be aware of how we're approaching relationships and community. Which is why in today's episode, I'm boldly discussing 3 things that I believe are hurting, if not downright killing, our ability to have relationships that truly matter. (And keeping us from building real communities as well.) Things that we might not even be aware of - but are having a profound effect on our lives. Dive in with me as we get honest about relationships! ---------- LET'S CONNECT Website: https://www.relateescape.com Email Jenn: https://www.relateescape.com/contact FREE DOWNLOAD 10 Secrets to a Profitable Retreat: https://www.relateescape.com/freebie

It seems like a completely logical thing to do, in fact. But the reality is that it can trip you up, in a super sneaky sort of way, and negatively affect the success of your event. And what's scarier is that it's usually the first step someone takes in planning their event! What is this seemingly mysterious, highly common event planning mistake? How much damage can it really do? And, more importantly, how can you avoid it? I'm giving you all of the powerful knowledge today, friend!

Typically, we put an event on the calendar, book the venue, and go to town selling spots. But if we're planning to host an event post-COVID (or after a personal time of uncertainty or adjustment), we need a different strategy. While we can't sell tickets yet, having no date or venue, there *are* ways to get ahead of the game and naturally build-up to the sale - making it way easier when the time comes. (While also planting seeds that will bear fruit in our businesses overall.) Join me as I lay out a specific strategy that's all about thinking outside-of-the-box; strengthening relationships; and differentiating yourself in a highly powerful way. Thus helping to ensure that when events open up again, and people have a plethora of choices, they can't wait to say "Yes!" to *your* intimate retreat.

Truth: You don't have to wait until the end of the pandemic to start planning your retreat. In fact, it's actually a highly strategic move to start now. Why? Because when the time comes, you won't be starting from square one. Which means that, unlike other entrepreneurs, you'll be so much closer to the benefits we discussed in Episode 24. (Not to mention that your clients/potential attendees will likely have their pick of event options when everyone starts holding them again at roughly the same time!) In this episode, I walk you through the simple process for drafting a high-level event blueprint. You'll have a firm - but flexible - foundation so when the time is finally here, you can put that retreat on the calendar and move forward with clarity, purpose, and confidence!

We don't know when things will return to normal in 2021, but it's important that we look ahead with expectancy and hope. Once social distancing ends, people are going to be craving intimate, fun, and relationship-focused experiences like never before. And we need to be ready! So in today's episode, I lay out what the event space is going to look like post-COVID - as well as three key reasons why retreats need to be your event model of choice. I also share why it's important to start planning for this time now versus later. (As crazy as that seems!) (Note: Finding this post-COVID?

Confession: I used to think that having a podcast was a horrible idea. I mean, the time and energy. The technical aspects. The interviews. All of the talking! (Are you feeling me, my fellow introverts?) In essence, I assumed podcasting was this big, complicated monster that wouldn't bring me any positive fruit. It was something meant for large, six-figure entrepreneurs who have a staff - and thus the time and support. Then one day, I stumbled onto a podcast episode that - within 30 minutes - COMPLETELY CHANGED MY MIND. (Are you seeing the irony here???) Suddenly, I saw podcasting from a completely different perspective. Suddenly, I realized that having a podcast made PERFECT SENSE for both myself and my business. A truth that's only been confirmed many times since! So in today's bonus episode, I'm sharing my story - including the specific reasons why I started my podcast. Reasons that can also apply to your business - no matter your niche or area of expertise. Plus, I'm going to let you in on an AMAZING resource that I used to get my podcast up and running.

Authenticity. A topic near and dear to my heart. But it's harder than it seems, right? Because showing our true selves, and being open and vulnerable (in a safe way) means facing certain fears. Fear of not appearing perfect or having it all together. Fear of being judged or hurt. We've all been there. But we also know that if we want to build true relationships...if we want to build real community...if we want to change the world like nobody's business, we need to not only accept our unique selves - without apology - but punch fear in the face. Pop open some chocolate, friend, because we are going to get real about being real. It's time to stop feeling as if we're not good enough; as if we can't be enough; and give our imperfect selves permission to be someone's perfect solution. (Because we are.) ---------- RELATE ESCAPE STORE **NOW OPEN** Client gifts, giveaway items, event swag, and venue decor! Unique designs you won't find anywhere else!

Value. A word that tends to be more about quantity than quality. The more sections to an online course or the bigger the program - the more we can charge for it. Because we're offering more value, right? ... But are we? Really? Let's have an honest (and safe) discussion about value. Are we TRULY providing the best value for our clients - whom we care about so deeply? What can we do to ensure that we're not just including "stuff" or launching a group program because that's the trend. Let's dissect value at its core so we can ensure we're impacting our clients, and the world, to the best of our ability while also building a profitable business. ---------- RELATE ESCAPE STORE **NOW OPEN** Client gifts, giveaway items, event swag, and venue decor!

Building one's community is an essential part of being an online entrepreneur. But thinking about how to intentionally define, create, and cultivate that community ... not so much, right? We tend to view it as something that just happens - or we zero in on the platforms, numbers, and churning out of content. But if you're a Relate Escape business, you're aching for a different type of community. One where there is a ton of relational fruit - not just sales. Which requires a different approach. So join me as I dive into a new way of looking at our communities as entrepreneurs. I also turn two major myths on their heads, transforming them into radical ideas, so we can create the kind of community we truly desire! ---------- LET'S CONNECT Website: https://www.relateescape.com Email Jenn: https://www.relateescape.com/contact FREE DOWNLOAD 10 Secrets to a Profitable Retreat: https://www.relateescape.com/freebie SUPPORT THE SHOW Help sustain future episodes with a small monthly donation: https://anchor.fm/jenn-murray/support

Themes for a virtual or live business event, you ask? Really??? Yes, entrepreneurial friend! Just because we run polished and professional businesses doesn't mean we can't be creative and fun too. Plus, themes provide legit business advantages - especially in this current time when it's all about virtual experiences. If we can liven things up; draw in attendees more easily; bring some dimension to our brand; and make our planning easier as the host (while having more fun) ... why the heck wouldn't we?

As Relate Escape businesses, we live to empower our clients and tribe. But in order to be effective, we need to consistently protect our own empowerment - and that requires vigilance. There are numerous, seemingly benign ways, we can be giving away our boss power without even realizing it. Which results in derailment from our mission. In today's episode, I zero in on two very common (almost undetectable!) trip-ups that cause us to give away our boss power - and how to meet them head-on. Because when we have things aligned correctly internally - we're in a much more powerful place to empower others externally. ---------- LET'S CONNECT Website: https://www.relateescape.com Email Jenn: https://www.relateescape.com/contact FREE DOWNLOAD 10 Secrets to a Profitable Retreat: https://www.relateescape.com/freebie SUPPORT THE SHOW Help sustain future episodes with a small monthly donation: https://anchor.fm/jenn-murray/support

Social distancing is the new norm and who knows when it will end. But just because we're limited to connecting behind our phones or laptops doesn't mean we can't cultivate deeper connections. In today's episode, I hit on several out-of-the-box ideas for taking connection beyond the typical Zoom call or Marco Polo. Plus, I also speak to the wisdom of using this time to do a relational audit. In other words, taking a closer look at the friendships and other relationships - including clients! - in our lives that may be holding us back, no longer serving us, and/or taking up space where fruitful relationships could exist.

Let's delve into the cold, hard reality of creating a business that actually aligns with YOURSELF. I spent several years buying programs and hiring coaches. (Sound familiar?) But do you know what FINALLY allowed me to create a business model that lights me up, aligns with how I'm wired, and thus better serves my clients too? Um, listening to MYSELF. Easy...yet hard.

Warning: I'm about to get seriously controversial. Or maybe not! Because I have a feeling, from certain things I've seen and heard, that I am not alone in what I'm about to unapologetically share on today's episode. The online entrepreneurial world - like any space - has its own culture of beliefs, norms, and practices. But some of these just aren't healthy or wise. They're just not. And if the pandemic has done anything, it's revealed some life-altering truth among the lies. So brace yourself, ladies.

"I'm Facebooked Out." This is a phrase I've heard numerous times in the past several months - from myself and others. A lot of us are feeling the burn, right? Tired of the overwhelm. Constantly fighting the algorithms. A Facebook Group for everything! Getting sucked into ours feed only to emerge hours later feeling inadequate, jealous, and frustrated. Not to mention downright lonely, unconnected, and unsatisfied. So in today's episode, I put a massive spotlight on this big old elephant in the room! I share how I walked away from social media in late April and, five months later, have absolutely no desire to return. What I've gained in my life because of that bold decision has been, well, my life! Let's have an honest conversation about social media and what it's *really* doing for our lives and businesses. P.S.

In Episode 01 of the Events for Entrepreneurs podcast, I share my story with you. How I went from a woman who had a four year degree - but didn't believe she could get a full-time job - to entering the 9-5 life.
