Note from Joanne
Hello!
I’ve become a lot more consistent in terms of getting
outdoor activity, something I’ve always said I want to
do, but in the past I always found something “more
important” to do. The thing is, I really do enjoy it,
so why did I put it off? I realized I always put the
fun stuff at the bottom of my list. Not any more. It’s
really important to make time for fun stuff; things
you like to do. It opens you up for creative thinking
and problem-solving.
With that in mind, I’ve decided to make a few changes:
In addition to my 2010 theme of “Ask,” I’m adding
“Have More Fun.” You may notice that I start writing
in a lighter tone, more irreverently. I’m going to
start trying things “just for fun.” If it doesn’t
work, no harm, no foul – but I will have fun trying
it, and maybe have some funny stories to share.
And to make time for a little more fun, I have decided
that I’m going to issue this ezine only once per
month. If I have special announcements that are time-
sensitive, I’ll do a separate mailing, and
occasionally I may send out an additional ezine as
need dictates. So beginning in February, expect to see
Cadence once per month, about mid-month.

Introducing email coaching! I created an email package
of services as a custom request for a client last
year. Many of my survey respondents also expressed
interest in email coaching, so I decided to turn the
custom package into a standard package. You asked – I
listened! This is perfect for those of you who have
limited time, limited funds, and who prefer
communicating in writing (or just find the telephone
inconvenient).
I’m offering a choice of a 4-month or 6-month package.
Here’s how it works: when you sign up, I’ll send you
my usual intake package with forms and assessments –
the same assessments I use for my other coaching
packages. You get two laser (15- minutes) phone calls
per month (if you choose to use them) for those
situations where you need real-time support. I’ll ask
you questions via email, based on your assessments and
what we agree to work on (ie your goals, desires).
I’ll provide feedback, encouragement, extra resources,
tools, exercises (if you want that) all via email. You
can ask me questions; the number of emails is
unlimited during your package duration – but I do need
time to respond. I’ll respond within 48 hours (usually
less).
In order to jump-start enrollment, I'm offering an
introductory pricing special: 50% off for the first
enrollee, 40% for the second, 30% for the third, and
20% off for the fourth. The fifth enrollee pays full
price.
Interested? Hit reply or if you want to (gasp!) call
me, the number is +1 623-877-3952

Networking is especially difficult for introverts, for
a variety of reasons. Here’s a great resource that I
discovered from one of my favorite introvert experts:
Have you been wanting to learn the psychology of
networking? Or maybe you’ve wanted to understand and
learn how to network properly, without feeling like
you are bothering people when networking?
Patricia Weber, as a nationally recognized business
coach for introverts, and Monique MacKinnon, trained
in the art and science of hand analysis, offer a
powerful program now available on downloadable audios,
3 hours worth, that balances the analytics and the
energy of networking.
For just $99 you can download three 1-hour mp3s to
your iPod or mp3 player, to use as you plan your next
networking event. And you get a Networking Energy
Audit as well as a Systematize Your Follow-up
worksheet.
Go to Powerful Networking for Straight Shooters and
increase your sphere of influence and sales!
Disclosure: Many of my recommendations use an
affiliate link, which means I get a small (often
miniscule) commission if you purchase using the link I
provide. I never recommend products or services that I
would not be willing to purchase myself (if I don’t
already own it).

Featured Client Experience
I have more confidence about my ability to achieve my
goals - seeing how those goals are perceived from the
outside definitely helps. My own perception can be
skewed by my lack of past experience.
Also, one thing in particular that I found useful
about this coaching session was that it forced me to
pin down my goals and problems, by discussing them
with someone else. As an introvert, I tend to think
about goals and problems in my own mind for too long,
past the point where my thoughts have stopped making
progress. When I get to that point, talking about my
problems with someone else helps me see things more
clearly. Especially if they ask me questions that
force me to think of specific answers to clarify the
vague ideas I'd had before. Hearing an outside point
of view from you was also very helpful for me. Friends
tend to give mainly supportive comments, whereas I
personally find an unbiased outside opinion, or
advice, much more helpful. I have more confidence
about my ability to achieve my goals - seeing how
those goals are perceived from the outside definitely
helps.
