Hey,
Are you sick of the pivot? I was sick of the pivot pre-2020, but this year has given it new meaning! However, with every unforeseen (and even some foreseen) pitfall, I have always managed to come out wiser and with renewed ideas. It would have been daunting if Future Sarah had told Past Sarah about all of these pivots. But Present Sarah is here to say that it has always been worth it, and she wouldn’t have wanted it another way.
Remember, this year’s theme is KEEP GOING!

#PBLMeASAP | SCORE TALK! THURSDAY
Identifying Your Perfect Future Client
(PSST… This is the LAST time I will be giving this workshop publicly. The content is just too rich to give away.)
“Identifying Your Perfect Future Client” is designed to help you determine your perfect future client before the less-than-ideal chooses YOU!
In this workshop, you will learn how to identify the characteristics of your ideal client, including demographics, psychographics, and behavior.
You will create a draft of your client avatar and learn the secret next step to discover the language that will effectively draw those people to you.
Through interactive activities and discussions, you will leave with a clear understanding of how to identify your perfect future client, leverage this knowledge, and walk away with specific FREE marketing activities that will make you stand out to the right people.
#BizHack | MLMs

I was a Mary Kay lady in my 20’s. It was there that I learned so many important business fundamentals- profit, customer service, taxes, and my hustle was intense. You can read about it in my blog entitled, Take This Car and Shove It. There is even reference to the almighty pivot in there, too.
Despite wanting to shove that pink car, I did learn that MLM is NOT a dirty word ( or words as it were.) Just ask my Mary Kay lady. I am a gooood customer.
I know firsthand that the companies fiercely back up the products and that the folks that work the business side of MLMs are working their butts off. I don’t care what anyone has ever told you about how casual these business opportunities are. If you want to make enough spare change for a vacation, you are working it! Mad respect.
The #BizHack? HOST A PARTY. Hosts and hostesses get the BEST deals. Also, support your local MLM entrepreneurs that sell stuff that you believe in.
Anyway, I somehow accumulated a sizeable enough Wish List with Pampered Chef, and my Portland-era coach, Cheryl, asked if I’d like to have a party. This is the perfect season to host a party. I can even tell you what stocking stuffers to get!
Anyway, my party is in November. If you’d like an invite, just hit reply and let me know.
