An Easy Way To Get Out There Online & Offline

Thank You

Thank you for being here, whether you realise it or not, you're already making a difference.

Many times when I look on social media, I see post and hear from people just like you that they either love or loathe it, it's a similar story when socialising professionally or networking in the flesh.

Do you wish you loved connecting on and offline so much that you actually get to meet people?

Today I'd love to show you exactly how to get visible, raise your profile and describe what you do without posting links, thrusting business cards, or being removed from online groups for spamming.

Your work really matters: please share what you do with other Visibility VIBErs if Facebook floats your boat, to do that now click here

Here's a great way to introduce yourself

1. Greet the reader in a 'real you way', I often greet people I know with 'hiya' strange but true or hi, this is especially true in online interactions.

Face to face at meetings or meeting new people, I'll still say hi, in a more corporate setting I'll say hello, pleased to meet you but NEVER good morning, afternoon etc or I come across as wooden and weird!

How do you greet people you meet online and in the flesh? 

2. Give your name or nickname, I'm definitely a Jenny and only Jennifer if I'm in trouble (or you want to get my attention).

If your name is difficult to pronounce let them know how to pronounce it properly, say it slowly if face to face or type it phonetically if in a group online. 

I usually announce that I'm Jenny Kovacs at event's or when meeting people, they know how to pronounce my surname then, it's "Co-Vac-s" but with a 'K'

What do you prefer to be called?

3. Tell them where you're from are you in an online group where you're now based in Thailand but are originally from Manchester? Maybe you're over in America but spent time in Europe as a child. 

These conversation starters give a person something to talk to you about and helps to build some rapport, even when you're speaking to them face to face.

When can you next use this nugget?

4. Without adding your website, page or blog give one or two short lines about your business, no one has time to read pages and pages of what you do, and to be honest people don't care THAT much. If they want to know more they'll usually ask.

I inadvertantly shared a Facebook live I did with another group I'm in, I forgot that as well as sharing the gems in the LIVE I had invited people to watch something else over on my page, this is just as bad as adding a website link or spamming someone else group. My bad... I removed it as soon as I realised - whoops!

Now, don't fall foul of being a business card thruster! When you're meeting people at networking event's or seminars etc, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT push a business card into their hand, it's not cool and it's not clever! Either wait until you're asked, or ask, can I share my business with you, with a honest reason why. (and be prepared for the person to say "no thanks".

Be honest, have you done this?

5. Let people know what attracted you to the group whether live or online, this is a great way to open up the conversation in the flesh or engage while online. Let them know the value you can give and/or gain, (without adding links to your 'stuff or card thrusting)

Want some practice?

The truth about giving up!

I’ve spent the last few months decluttering, searching deeply, asking important questions from myself and my life both personally and professionally. What I realised, is that there was one main thing I had to do, what was that?

I had to…  

Give up. 

Give up …assumptions. 

Give up …wasting time. 

Give up …seeking approval. 

Give up …complaining (still working on that one). 

Give up …spending time with people, places or things which don’t light me up. 

That last one, has led to this piece, but let me say a little about the others first. 

Assumptions ~ That others have it better, easier, by chance, entitlement or through something I assume I don’t have. 

Wasting time ~ You’re likely bored hearing about the 5am stuff, but it’s been huge for me and even more huge thanks to Shaa Wasmund for this golden technique. 

Seeking approval ~ checking with anyone else other than myself before doing anything, this is like kryptonite to confidence. 

Complaining ~ about situations, events or occurrences especially complaining to a person who can’t put it right or do anything to alleviate or resolve my complaint. 

Initially, “Give up spending time with people, places or things which don’t light me up” , looks pretty harsh, but here’s what it actually meant for me.

I decided this summer that I wanted to majorly declutter, I’ve decluttered before but this time I felt compelled and started from a place of, “How does the person who is x,y,z live, act or be? I started to look at my belongings and as I picked the items up, I asked myself a simple question, I asked myself how that item made me feel? The answers which came back were surprising. 

You see, when you look at items in that way, you experience the overdue memories held, times when things ’should have been’, the clothing which when you wore it, made you feel less than, and the places you revisit which made your heart sink. That top I couldn’t wear comfortably without my bra straps showing and that favourite piece which had a little hole in it which I spent the whole time trying to disguise. 

The books which sat on my shelf, got moved around from the marital home, into the separated and newly single pad and the really costly storage unit they lived in in between. The designer purse, a gift from bygone people, the copious notebooks filled with detailed notes, big dreams and careful plans, the pairs of shoes, everywhere especially the 10+ pairs in my car, which had itself become a storage unit and stark reminder of a life I no longer lived, a position I no longer held, a sector crippled into collapse, a reminder of the redundancy as my role became a victim of the economic financial ‘crisis’. 

The bit that others don’t always get or think about though, are the people… 

That final one, “Give up spending time with people, places or things which don’t light me up”

Initially “Give up spending time with people, which don’t light me up” looks pretty harsh, but here’s what it actually meant for me

We all know at least one person who can be either negative, spiteful, embarrassing, energy draining or unsupportive and we just don’t feel great around them, yet it’s common for people to choose to stay connected with those people in life and online and it was some of those traits I looked at with the filter of “how does the person who does x,y,z live, act or be?

Here’s the rub.

If you’re spending time with people who are negative, spiteful, embarrassing, energy draining, unsupportive or something else, you’ll feel these things more often at a time when it's likely you want to feel differently. When you’re stretching and looking to do new things you want to surround yourself with people who will cheer you on, support you and are completely in tune with what you’re looking to achieve. If not, you’ll find your confidence, tenacity, positivity, and will, being challenged. Sometimes, it’s ok to take a step back while staying in relationship with them, it's also important to know when to vet what you share with them too.

If they’re so negative and don’t get that stepping back piece, that’s ok too, you don’t need to absorb what’s not going to support you, and there’s no need to spend time or energy correcting, judging or 'fixing' them.

During the last round of decluttering, when I realised that my car mostly sat parked on the side of the road in London, was filled with old memories of an old lifestyle, and didn’t fill me with joy.

I gave that up too.  

Once you're ready to step up and be even more visible there's a whole heap of people who are ready to support you, including me! Who do you want to be?

Are YOU Going Through It?

Today had a s-l-o-w start...

If you think that things are perfect for everyone else but you, please know you're not alone!

Despite having been awake really early, I'd been plagued by all sorts of of rubbish, and things seemed to happen REALLY slowly.

When I say stuff, that stuff could include things like;

lack of sleep

computers crashing

friends who need comforting

rubbish times

heavy heads (and hearts)

massive to-do lists

poorly children

out of order ex’s

demanding timeframes

to busy-i-tis

personal problems

health scares

naughty children

cancelled plans

family rows

bad hair day's

my-boss-doesn't-understand-me days 

Insert yours _____________ in the blank here!

The list is endless!

So for all of you who need it, here are some things to do or be.

1. Be gentle on yourself 

Beating yourself up verbally, only makes matters worse, and inflames an already delicate situation, cut yourself some slack, give yourself a break and ask yourself, would you speak to a small child like that? Likely not!

2. Absolutely know that "this too shall pass" 

Virtually everything in life is temporary, so it will end and it will pass!

3. There's always tomorrow

You might just need the break, this is often how we know, when we refuse to stop

4. Know that tomorrow is another day

It'll will still all be there and you'll function better having slept on it

5. then take some time out, yes really. 

Go for a short walk, take a break, go to the gym, grab a drink or even lock yourself in the loo for 5 minutes!

So what now?

Once you're feeling differently and it has passed, take a moment to write down the life that you want and how you'll choose to feel if it were to happen again. 

PS I'm not going to pretend to know it all, in fact, I am going to invite you to add a nugget of advice of your own  in the comments below, if you're feeling s-l-o-w or you want to cheer someone else up. 

I know they'll want to hear it, and could really need it right now. 

Keep on being incredible and happy

[Monday Motivation] Why Wait!

[Monday Motivation] Why Wait  

Do you ever find yourself saying, "not now, maybe later?"

In 2008 I recognised the stigma attached with a brand new week, often Mondays were met with dread, a feeling of overwhelm and a sense of being stuck.

Not the best way to set yourself up for the day, let alone the week!

So I found ways to send motivational messages around the office to lift people up. In 2010 when I started my business, I was really keen to keep this up as a service to those who wanted it. 

Do you ever find yourself saying, "not now, maybe later?"

What better time to boost motivation than on Monday's and if the message resonates well with you, or you feel it's for someone you know, please share it with your colleagues, friends, employees or family, in fact anyone who looks like they could use a smile. 

Just know Monday motivations have been created especially for you since 2008!

How to make your money work hard for you

Hi Visibility VIBEr 

This morning I woke up and asked myself two questions, one was " Are you going to treat today as the first day of the rest of your life?"

It might sound a bit dramatic, but it's a pretty refreshing way to start the day and in the spirit of doing things differently, I wanted to say this...

Don’t miss this free video training

Now, I want to ask,

~ Are you an employee, self-employed, a business owner or a stay at home parent?

~ Do you aspire to bring in more money?

~ Are you struggling to manage what’s available?

Then, watch this video  

I believe it’s one thing to learn how to make money, but how on earth do you get it to stay and grow? 

This question really bothered me from time to time, as I just couldn’t see how I would ever get off the treadmill of having to just work hard for it… quite frankly, thinking about it can be pretty depressing!
 

Then in 2012, I met Ann Wilson, (now a best-selling Hayhouse author) and wealth guru, known as "The Wealth Chef", and the way I thought about money began to change. 

Learning from Ann will transform your life and relationship with money and that is why I'm doing it this time around and am so excited about the new free Video series Ann has just released. 

You'll learn how to increase your income;

• Get assets into your life, that work for you easily, safely and in a way that doesn’t spend loads of your time

• Create a passive income stream business from as little as $50 a month and less than 6 hours a year

• A financial insider secret that will earn 70% more income for you (can you afford not to know this?)

• Ways to manage your money effectively, so you can live a great life now, with the knowledge you’ll be safe and secure financially in your later years

 

Ann is insanely passionate about helping people like you and me, to live the greatest versions of our lives with money supporting us, so we can:

- Free ourselves up from having to work harder and harder for money

- Travel and experience more of what life has to offer

- Spend more time with our family and friends

- Contribute more to the things we feel passionate about

and 

- Know we will be safe and secure in our future

Go here to watch her free video and be sure to take great notes because she always gives massive value!

I'll warn you that Ann's Video will only be up for a short time, I'd watch it now before it comes down!

So Click here to watch this free teaching Video now.

PS If you're wondering whether you've got time to watch this, it may be helpful to know that the second question I asked myself this morning was, "Can I afford not to?".
