New Life Coach Experiences Success From Privateer Nation Accountability

Fiona is a Life Coach based in Denver, Colorado.  As a new life coach she decided to build her business through cold calls.  It sounded like a great idea until she actually sat down to do the cold calls.  She quickly found other things to do.  The next day when she sat down to do cold calls again the same thing happened.  Guess what happened the third day she sat down?

Cold calling alone is hard.  Cold calling alone with out accountability is insane.

Fiona got on to her second Privateer Nation krewe call and reported that she hadn’t done any of the cold calls that she said she would do.  I have a tremendous amount of respect for a person who can get on a krewe call and say, “I didn’t do what I said I would do.”  That takes a lot of guts and it also pays off.  Because she was honest about her situation we were able to get into action.  Because I am Fiona’s Krewe Captain I told her to call me next time she sat down to do cold calls.

When we spoke I had her run through her script with me a few times.  She did a great job.  I then asked, “How many calls are you going to make today?”  She said, “I’ll do 40.”  I said, “Ok, call me back when you are done.”

I got a call a few hours later and Fiona was super excited.  She’d done her all 40 cold calls and she got not 1, not 2 but 3 appointments with prospective new clients!  That’s the power of accountability.  We will make promises to ourselves and bail.  However the minute we tell someone else, we respect, that we are going to do something, we do it!  So simple but accountability makes all the difference in the world!  The plan from this point forward is for Fiona to call once a day and leave a message when she starts cold calling.  And then leave a message reporting her numbers when she is done.  It’s only a matter of time now before Fiona will have more clients then she knows what to do with!
