 All right, so I'm joined with Courtney here. So Courtney, why don't you introduce yourself a little bit better so folks know who you are? Yeah, hey, my name is Courtney Dijkster House and I currently, I just started a social media marketing agency and it's been really, really exciting to see it pick up and grow and it's really been kind of based on this program. So it was my launching pet. Awesome. So why don't you tell folks a bit about how you came across the work from Anywhere Accelerator and Christian in general. Just give them a bit of background there. Yeah, so I will say he does an excellent job. If his program is proof that or his ads are proof that his program works because he found me and I always think that as I'm creating ads for my clients. It's like, you know what, if I can get ideal clients of mine based upon my ads and obviously I can do the same thing for them. But so I came up with one of his ads on Facebook and it was just at a time where I was really searching for something to really level up my ads the way that I service my customers and that was one of the pieces of the puzzle that was really hard for me. So I was struggling with trying to get good results, trying to create efficient funnels and I needed that. And so when I saw that ad, I was one of those people that didn't immediately jump on it but I couldn't get it out of my mind. Like I went to sleep and I was like, oh my gosh, I'm going to miss out on this opportunity. And then I woke up and I was like, I'm still missing out on this opportunity. And so finally I made the punch probably like three days after initially seeing his ad. Awesome. Good to know our ads are working. Exactly what we wanted out of it. So when you did finally join in, what were some of those first steps that you took? Because it sounds like you were already kind of in that mindset. So what actions did you take when you jumped in? Was it just ramming through the content? Was it like, what did that look like? Yeah. So I will say one of the pieces that I needed the most, which was so silly, it's like, it was just so silly. But for me, something that I knew I wanted in this program was the questionnaire form. Like I don't, like that's such a small piece of the puzzle. But when I saw that there was a very systematic way that he helps people be able to like construct these questionnaire forms. I was like, I need that. I'm just floundering right now. So when I first got started, that was one of the first things I felt. I just wanted to already start to implement that for all of my clients. But then after that, after I found that, then I just started from the beginning. I mean, I really didn't skip. I know that some people that dependent on like your strategy and the way you want to construct it, you know, they'll skip to a certain like module four or five. And for me, I just, I couldn't myself. So I really, it was really important for me to start mindset module and making sure like I was big picture and okay. Just because you started company and an agency doesn't mean that you have the mindset in or to be successful. Like I had very limiting mindsets. So that was really helpful for me. And what was really funny is that one of his modules he created, he posted about, or he included a link from a TED talk by Angela Duckworth. And it was about correct, you know that one. And that like transform, like I have like a whole slogan now based on unapologetically gritty. So like it was really, really good for me not only to get like the very systematic structures in order to create the successful funnels for my clients, but also to make sure like I established a strong mindset for myself going forward. That's awesome. Yeah. I mean, even, you know, even at this point, I'd say Christian and myself still hit mindset barriers. Yeah. That's, that's one of the most continuous things. I mean, that never shifts. You always have to hear honestly. There's always, there's always something that pops up and it's like, okay, like you've realized it. You're like, yeah, okay, this is like a mindset limiter or some like weird limiting belief. But I mean, as long as you identify it, yes, that's the most important bit, like identify it, realize it, break past it. So true. And I wouldn't have been able to even know how to identify it if it wasn't for starting in this program, to be honest with you. I just have gotten there, but it would have taken me a lot more time and I, it would have been because of trial and error or not growth, right? Like I'm not going, why not? You know, and then I probably would have done some research and realized that I have to restructure the whole way, I think, in order to grow and expand though. Makes sense. Yeah. So how did you find the support and the training in the program? Because it sounds like you really went through the content there, especially the mindset bit, but how did you find the support going through it as you had questions come up and you know, things like mindset? Yeah. Oh my goodness. So I will say to you, I've had greater perspective on the support for this program in most weeks after purchasing an additional program for something different related to like my business and a different entity and realizing the difference in support. For this program, it has really been not only giving the tools in order to succeed, but it's been so specific. Like it's not generalized. Everything that is out there that is put into this program, you can tell that he's had people go through this a lot because he answers a lot of the questions before they even, before you're even able to ask them, which is great. It keeps you being able to stay plugged in and then answer things for yourself, you know, like be able to, if you can come up with a solution to that question, he really encourages that, which I respect especially, you know, as somebody who says like, think for yourself and be able to, you have the tools in order to get to that place. I think he established that really well, but when you do need that help, I think the greatest support for me has been the Facebook group. I mean, you have shown up like crazy. I mean, it is like you're really, really present and it shows, you know, and I want to participate more because I know that there are rewards to it, not only just for like my personal side of getting money, but like within the group, me, us being able to have this conversation, you know, is based upon goal guys incentivized us to reach. And so I think the overall support of this program has been well worth the money, like well worth it. I did not know that it was going to be at this level. So I'm really grateful for that. That's great to hear. You definitely appreciate that. Yeah, absolutely. Well, I appreciate you. Oh my gosh. I'm like, he's always here. I tried, I spent way too many hours in front of my computer. I realized more and more, but it's, it's all, it's all, all in a positive light. Yeah, you know, making changes in people's lives. Yes, yeah. It's good. So you've obviously had some awesome successes, which is why we're talking. So why don't you tell us a bit about some of those wins that you had, you know, recently and also previously and, you know, let's talk through. Yeah, absolutely. Okay, so I will say for specifically what this program offers. So in order for us to gain clients through ads, it has been really successful for me thus far. I haven't been growing at like, I was kind of one of the, I hope this gives people hope for who's in this program and maybe like hasn't gotten their first client in a long time. I was one of the people that when I first started, like there was no movement. You don't even know I probably existed in this group, right? Because this wasn't contributing. I wasn't reaching out to people. I really was just like waiting. And again, like talking about the mindset I had to just like work on a lot of stuff for myself in order to get out there. I didn't believe I could get results. And so I didn't want to do it, but I had to do it in order to get results. So in the beginning, I was one of those really slow progressions for this program. And then once I got my first trial client and we got really good results for her, I mean, like I did this funnel by trial and fire and I hoped that it was going to work and it worked like a relevancy score of 10. We were converting with like $200. We got like 61 high quality leads for her and like no tweaks, no none. I was just, I was forward. And for me, I think it was because I spent a lot of time making sure like I understood that concept. But also in addition to that, like, I mean, in order for you to succeed in this, it was kind of like you just have to go through the program and it's not like, well, you know, you just have to go out on your own and think of this abstract way. Like he really set a very like structured equation in order for you to get results. And so I appreciated that. So that was one of my first wins with that. I went through the quantum leap challenge that was very helpful for me to be able to talk about wins. I mean, I hadn't had many, I just had that one, but I wasn't marketing it. I wasn't comfortable talking about it. Now, do I do that a lot now? Honestly, and as I should, I really should, but it helped me to know like, okay, this is the level that I need to, I need to be able to talk about these wins. People want to know about those things. And so now I have a client, which I didn't share in the group, but in addition, we're actually, we have ads on top of marketing, just like overall digital marketing, well, social media marketing. And so she's a, she's a client per month. It's $2,400. So I would not have to, yeah, thank you so much. Thank you. So I, again, I wouldn't have been able to offer, like I wouldn't have believed I could offer that price and be confident in offering that if it wasn't for going through this course and, you know, knowing your value. And I love, I mean, I preach this to my clients right now with what Christian said, you're not being your time, honey, like you're trading for value. So like, how good is what you're offering these people? That's what you rate yourself as. That's what rates come in, you know? So, and that was really good for me to hear just like overall in my business, not just for my like, okay, I can't stop. I need to stop trying for money, like for money for time. I really, I really need creating like value because once you do this more, you get quicker at it. And then what do you do? You know, you decrease your prices because you can do it quicker. No, I mean, like it's really based on results. And so that's given me more of an incentive to get better results from my clients because I know like I can charge them high money and high prices if I can give them those results. So, you know, work in progress. We're still growing. And I still got a lot of work to do, but it's a good journey. That's good. That's good. Yeah, that's probably one of the biggest barriers I think folks run into is the time for money. Yeah. And it's a continuous one too. I think it circles back every so often like you get things get good. And then you start looking at, you know, if you have employees and all you start thinking through, like, you know, what time do they spend it all? It's like, whoa, wait, like, you know, you're charging for value. Your, your hourly rate of employees should always be covered or your hourly rate yourself should always be covered. But that's a, that's a big one. That's awesome. Yeah. Thanks. So, you know, awesome wins. That's absolutely phenomenal. So what's the best piece of advice that you could give to someone who's either like just getting in the program or, you know, even if they haven't jumped in the program yet and they're kind of just like, you know, I want to make that change. What's the biggest piece of advice that you can give them out of everything that you've gone through and, you know, what you've gone through again to to get into that client? Yeah, that's a good question. I think the biggest piece of advice that I would give somebody, there's, I think I would say like two separate things, depending on who it is. So somebody that's thinking of joining, I would say, just as like the pitch that you give to your clients is saying, hey, you know, with my fees, this could become my one lead. Like this is, you've already like paid for my services based on the lead. And so I think about for somebody who's joining, the same goes for this program. You know, you could pay for this in full. And I did, you know what I mean? Like I did it. Anybody that honestly has clients in this program have paid for their, for this program in full by the first client that they get. And so it's, and then you're getting all of the support in addition to that, that's free. You know, like honestly, I'm like, wow, this should be a membership. People are probably going to kill me when they hear this. Like, no, don't give any ideas. But that's like the, that's the level of quality that you get when you're in this community. So I would say you have to think of it more so as the value, not the number. Because once you get into this program, then you realize it's about the value, not the number. So, but in order for, you have to, you just have to take that risk, right? And in knowing like this really can change your financial situation. But you just have to, you know, you have to believe in programs there and it's hard to determine which ones are flukes and which ones actually are successful. And I mean, I'm super picky. I'm a former journalist. So I, I'm definitely more critical and skeptical of things. But this program was one of my first notes, my second program ever purchased. And it was, it's been by far the best. So that's what I would say to somebody who is thinking of getting this program, anybody that's in the program. You know, I would say again, I want to give encouragement for anybody who is, it's taking a long time for them to make moves. And if for somebody who's like still struggling or not really getting down to concepts, I would say don't rush, like go back through the course again. You know, if you're having a hard time with understanding certain things within creating an ad for a client, like don't rush it at all. It's okay. Like everyone works at a different pace. So as much as you're seeing other people's wins in this program, you're not behind. Like you would rather spend more time making sure that what you're giving people is quality, you know, because your reputation is behind your service to them, essentially. So if it takes more time to get it done, like that's okay. But if you're like a trailblazer and you're like, Cody, you know, Cody win and you're just playing it from the get go, that's great too. I mean, like both of them are just as viable and just as important. So I would just say just keep going, just don't not do it. Like you've already spent the money. So don't give up. Like just, just go, just keep doing it. And I do like the initiatives to reach out to people in Facebook groups, like seriously, just, just continuously do that. I know I listened to Cody's and that was a success for me too. And it really does work and being confident and marketing yourself in that way. And being being honest about saying like, if you are still trying to find a client or a trial client, like being honest about, Hey, I just I'm really, I really want to get results. So I'm trying this. I want both of us and not giving up on that. And I honestly, it's like a swallowing your pride kind of thing. I had to do it from I'm not the best at this. And then from there, just continuously deciding not to give up that grit mindset. Don't give up. Just keep going. It's very fun. I mean, it all, yeah, it all circles back to mindset. Funny enough, because even that like swallowing your pride thing, I mean, that's just playing to someone else's mindset of being like, well, I'm at this level, they're over here. I want to pull them forward. Right. And if you, I mean, if you can swallowing your pride to do that, people will pull you forward. They'll give you those opportunities. Yes. And the thing is, is like, don't underestimate the trial clients because my trial client and Christian has said this, and I know you said this too, those trial clients could easily become clients and like, this client that I did a trial for, like we are so, like we're, we're like friends now, genuinely like friend level. And we still work together and like one of my best clients seriously. So I was really great, even though I gave her a free service at the end of the day, she is far like, we're, we're making lots of money together. So, so that initial like, oh, I'm still getting this trial client. Is it even worth it? Absolutely. Like don't just say because it's a trial that you shouldn't be putting your best foot forward because you could have that client for a long term, especially knowing like when you give something for free, like instant credibility and trust, like that person is like, whoa, like you must be really confident in what you're offering, the fact that you're giving this to me for free in some way. Obviously you do return like your testimonial and three referrals or whatever works best for you. But that, that trial client for me was a launching pad for sure. So never just glaze over that or think that that's not necessary. And even if you think you could get a try, you know, a high-paying client in the beginning, awesome, but it's never, you should always maybe consider also like implementing a trial client in some way. If you feel like you could really be able to think about the what that trial client would bring testimonial is worth its weight in gold. If you are just your own agency, like, I mean, come on. I mean, that really, really, really for me, I still at certain times, I'm like, okay, I will give you something free in exchange for what you just said to me. Like I need that in writing so I can put all that in my ads or I can put that on my website. So yeah, just thinking about like the big picture for your long-term goals for your business and like, what makes sense for you with that? 100%. Yeah, it's building assets. Yeah. And those testimonials are assets that always carry value. Always. That's awesome. So I want to appreciate it. I want to appreciate you taking the time. This has been absolutely phenomenal hearing. So if anybody wanted to get in touch with you, where they wanted to work with you or otherwise, what would be the best way for them to do that? Yeah. So, man, there's a lot of ways. So somebody can always email me at hellofiori, H-E-L-L-O-F-I-O-R-I dot com. I can put it in the comments or whatever when this launches. We'll put it in the description. Yeah, yeah, for sure. And then also Instagram, I'm like really active on Instagram. That's actually where I've gotten like, I would say 90% of my clients is on Instagram. So yeah, Instagram is Courtney TV. So those are the two ways, I think the quickest ways that you can get in touch with me if you have any questions or just need like a little pep talk. We all need that at times. For sure. Awesome. So we'll have those in the description below on YouTube and then probably in the post on Facebook. But yeah, awesome. I appreciate you taking the time. It's been absolutely phenomenal having a chat through all this. And yeah, so if you want to catch Courtney, email will be in one of the descriptions above or below depending on where you're at. And yeah, thanks for taking the time. Awesome. Thank you. Appreciate it.
