		<description>@Akemi - That&#039;s fantastic! I&#039;m so happy that the program worked so well for you, that you&#039;re able to switch from Filling the Pipeline to Following Up. I&#039;m looking forward to starting my next program with items from the Following Up actions. Hopefully this month I&#039;ll add some new prospects that I can incorporate into the Following Up program.

@Nicole - I&#039;m glad you&#039;re joining in on the program again! Good luck reaching your program goals - that&#039;s a big number, but if you did so well last time, and with added effort and advertising, etc. this month - I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll reach your new goal!

Thanks for clarifying the Y / N on the weekly action. I thought something was off there, LOL. I&#039;m still going to be giving myself N&#039;s if I don&#039;t do a weekly item (whether planned or not) - I think it will help me work harder, LOL.</description>

		<description>@Akemi That&#039;s great!! Congrats!

Hi Selene! I&#039;m joining you again this time around. I do believe my last round was successful, but I think this time will be even better because now I could see how it works and make a better plan.

I, too, am going to focus on Filling the Pipeline again. This time my program goal is 100 new contacts in my prospect list. Last time I set only 10 as my goal and tripled that number. Although I was happy with the number, I don&#039;t think I filled the pipeline enough for what I want to do. And, I decided I did not set my goal high enough, either. This time my goal will be 100 because I plan to add some advertising and a new ad on my website (that you will be working on, as you know LOL). I think I should be able to get that many. Let&#039;s see! I did not set any sales goal this time, since that seemed more like &quot;Closing the sale&quot; which I will focus on next round (or following up).

My success ingredients are: Rewrite auto-responder e-mails (my current ones aren&#039;t good) (due 7/4), finish re-write of my eBook(s) (due 7/4), and publish one article (7/14).

I won&#039;t bore you with my daily/weekly actions. It&#039;s a lot to type in a comment. But, fyi, you don&#039;t get a &quot;Y&quot; for weekly items you don&#039;t do every single day. It says to plan which day you will do it and if you don&#039;t do your weekly item by the end of the week, you get an automatic &quot;N&quot;. Of course, we all can make the plan what we want. It&#039;s for us, but just thought I&#039;d mention it. What I do is put a circle on the items I plan to do that day and at the end if I haven&#039;t done the circle one, I get an &quot;N&quot; and if I do, I get a &quot;Y&quot;. If I didn&#039;t plan to do that weekly item that day, I put &quot;Y&quot;.

Good luck to us all!

		<description>Selene,

Oh, I forgot to say -- I haven&#039;t emailed all my contacts.  Just a few.  So when I resume my Get Clients Now! program, I guess I&#039;ll focus on the Follow Up first before I work on getting more new contacts. . .</description>

		<description>Hi Selene,

I just completed my week 1 of Get Clients Now! program.  And I must say this is great!  In fact, it worked so well that I have to postpone week 2 for a few weeks . . .

This is what happened.  When I made the plan, I thought I&#039;d focus on filling my pipeline because I am new in my &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.akashicrecordreading.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Akashic Record Reading&lt;/a&gt; service.  Then, as I worked on my my activities, I noticed I have more than 100 contacts, 80 of them bloggers because I have been writing for Yes to Me for a few months and have been consciously networking.

So I emailed some of my contacts introducing my new line of service -- what the book calls Following Up.  Wham!  I got booked solid in a few days.  In fact, because I&#039;m taking only limited number of clients right now (I&#039;m working on a few other projects, too. . .), I have to review my marketing target.

The program works!  I did the description, which is on my website, and also wrote my 10 sec intro and 30 sec commercial, which I used in my emails. I&#039;m also teaching myself to ask for referrals whenever I get the chance.

So good luck, Selene.  I&#039;ll be watching your progress.  I&#039;m thinking about writing about this program in Yes to Me, too, and when I do, I will send you link love.
