Hey, it’s me Sally Neill… remember… I used to blog lol.

I am still here, climbing up that ladder of success (one rung at a time) just not blogged much lately – sorreeeeeee.

Sooooooo now that all the spammy comments, blatant backlinks and trashy trackbacks left on my blog are deleted it’s back to business

This wont be a long post… gotta break myself in gently ha ha.

Been a hectic few months for me so the lil faithful blog has been neglected again.

But… the neglected blog has been for a good cause… to help my LWS students in their online journey and grow LWS.

That’s another Goal ticked – Live coaching done and dusted.

Have to say I enjoyed live coaching, kinda got in a routine.

But like all good things come to an end, as does my live group coaching experiences (for now)

I think LWS was a big “hit” as my students seemed to love the course (got lots of FAB testimonials to prove it too)

AND…

I got TONS of really lovely messages from marketers (I highly respect) congratulating me on a “job well done” with the LWS coaching.

One of my fav messages was from Stephanie Mulac, put it below for ya cos it made me smile:

When I began my Marketing With Alex 3.0 coaching one of the bonus Las Vegas Seminar videos by Stephanie helped me get my blog “going” again way back in 2010 – always be super grateful for that.

So all in all… I have to say I am really really pleased with the outcome of LWS

Now I am pretty sure you will know about most of my “successful students” as they been kicking ass online and been super productive.

But there are some other students who are still “chipping” away at success at their own pace too (which is cool, slow and steady can win the race)

My training was kinda “full-on” and by that I mean I squeezed in a lot over a short space of time.

I guess everyone works at their own pace and does what they can with the time they have.

Been kinda weird actually, because not every student was the same.

• Some students were very active blogging & blog hopping – but some weren’t.
• Some students were very active in our LWS Facebook Group – but some weren’t.
• Some students attended every single live webinar – but some didn’t (one never attended ANY)
• Some students completed all the training in order – others skipped modules or done in a diff order.

I had a wide variety of students tbh.

Sociable and Solitary Students

This is kinda strange to me, as I am such a friendly type person, but some students just didn’t wanna socialize with their fellow students lol.

I set up a facebook group so students could help each other with accountability and support etc, but some students never joined.

I set up a page inside the members area to list the students blogs, but again some students didn’t want their blog added.

I guess, yet again, I can’t force students to be sociable if they don’t want to.

(Shame really, because the support they would have received would have been invaluable)

Fast action takers / slow action takers / no action takers!

Like I said you will no doubt have seen my fast action taking students (they did a fab job of blogging about their journey)

I also have some students who are a little behind the fast action takers, but still chipping away at the training at their own pace will keep you updated on their progress too.

And I have students who wish to remain anonymous for whatever reason(?)

But, and this saddens me, I had no action takers, students who took ZERO ACTION.

This really really REALLY ate away at me.

I know if students follow the training they will move forward, but I had to wrestle with my conscience on this and finally come to the realization that I simply cannot force students to take action if they don’t want to or can’t.

Don’t get me wrong I tried my best… offered personal emails, skype chats etc.

Not really sure what more I could have done??? (but those students know I am here for them when they do decide to take action)

That was the only downside to the LWS coaching that I encountered… I wanted EVERYONE TO BE A SUPER SUCCESS!

But you cant force students to take action, life gets in the way, personal problems crop up and students cannot always complete training for whatever reason (I just hope one day they return to the training and follow it)

So if you intend to hold coaching yourself in the future, remember that as a Coach there is only so much you can do, and the rest is up to your student(s)

By that I mean, you can create the best course in the world – but if the people who buy it don’t take action – don’t take it personally.

I guess, I just have to remember that the students who took action, seen some fabulous results and know that had the other students done the same, they too could have achieved that.

What’s next for Sally?

That’s a tough question, I kinda achieved all my goals – H.E.L.P!

But first things first… the full Learn With Sally replay package will be my next focus (currently selling modules in batches)

What about Learn with Sally 2.0???

You know what…

I learned so much from my first live coaching, much more than I could ever have imagined, I am grateful for the opportunity and although I have been asked many times … will there be a LWS 2.0?

The answer is no, not likely. Been there. Done that. Wore the tshirt (actually did have a LWS tshirt lol)

I don’t have any current plans to launch coaching in that format again.

However I did launch 1 on 1 coaching at $97 a week (only currently available to LWS students) so I am super excited to be starting this new chapter with the people who accessed it.

So as you can see, I am still a busy beaver and not cruising up Easy Street just yet, although I am creeping closer every day

That’s pretty much my update for this week.

I hope your own online business is growing super fast and you are striding towards success online, because I truly believe:

YOU CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING YOU WANT ONLINE IF YOU TAKE THE STEPS AND ACTION REQUIRED!!!

C yaaaaaaaaaaaa

Sally “Happy To Be Blogging Again” Neill

ps. Just wanna say thank you to the students who placed their trust in me, followed my training and took ACTION – YOU ROCK… Keep Pushing Forward… FAST!

Hey Cool Crowd…

What ya been upto then?

Hope you have been behaving in my absence – bet Randy Smith hasn’t lol.

So it’s been a long time since I blogged – did ya miss me???

I’ve been super busy with the Learn with Sally students…

… and no doubt you can see from my blog post title (can ya guess what movie I did a wordplay on???) the LWS students and I have covered lots of training via live webinars and video tutorials.

If you are interested in accessing the REPLAYS you can get more details here:

Learn With Sally – The Replays

(Access to live training is closed – if I open LWS live training again it will not be until 2012)

Ok, sooooooo  I am pleased to say the current students are progressing super fast, whizzing through the training and taking instant action

(even beginners who had struggled to even turn on a pc, have blogs live and pimped with plugins etc – it’s awesome)

To be honest, I actually never imagined all the students would be so great, in fact that have surpassed my expectations MASSIVELY!

Because…

• They listen.
• They learn.
• They implement FAST!

And this is kinda cool…

Ok, so all the students access the very same training, but…

…each student has their own unique approach to the training…

no two students interpret the training the same way…

… their creative imaginations and ideas just shine through!

Lots of little Sally Neill’s running around…

Nooooooooooo…

Thanks to their own creative imaginations, we don’t have a bunch of little Sally’s running around PHEW!

I never wanted that anyway as I am sure you didn’t either lol one of me is more than enuf right?

Learn with Sally has just become so relaxed and so much fun…

Learning with the students (and it’s not just them learning, I am learning tons of stuff from them too) is genuinely fun.

More recently I also recently held a traffic competition and the winning prize was a sexy Kodak zi8 video camera (lucky so ‘n’ so – wouldn’t mind of those myself)

So keep your eyes peeled on the LWS student blogs and I am sure you will see an update from the winner v.soon!

I am truly enjoying myself and I know they are too.

But it’s been tough too I am not gonna lie…

… creating all the content myself – writer’s block has been a P.I.T.A (PAIN IN THE ASS!)

And although you all think I don’t fear anything

The live webinars were tough for me at first.

• First live LWS webinar – complete bag of nerves all day
• Second live LWS webinar – complete bag of nerves half the day
• Third live LWS webinar – slightly nervous few hours before webinar
• Fourth live LWS webinar – nerves are diminishing

This A-HA moment helped me cure my webinar nerves…

I think my suggestion of allowing students to co-present a webinar with me and show them behind the scenes was a brilliant idea for three reasons.

1. They get to see behind the scenes (I think I shatter their dreams because it’s not magic or exciting in anyway – in fact it’s kinda boring)

2. It helps me calm my nerves (a half hour before the call, I am chatting to a student and showing them presenter controls etc so I forget to be nervous)

3. I’m lonely (ha ha ha ha yes I know get the violins out – but I am – so having another presenter with me makes me feel better)

Coaching is NOT easy – well I don’t think it is…

I wasn’t even sure I wanted to coach all by myself – big baby I know!

It’s hard you know, planning and creating all the content completely by yourself.

PLUS… It’s scary waiting to see the students’ reactions after the live calls…

Did they love the call? Did they hate the call? Did they learn anything?

I literally finish the call then hop over to facebook (we have a little VIP facebook LWS group) so I patiently await the students comments.

It’s funny…

but I don’t need to wait long, usually one of the fab students posts in under a minute ha ha.

Then there is a post webinar BUZZZZZZZZ, everyone seems pumped and ready for action, ready to implement whatever training we have covered that week and I breathe a big sigh of relief.

Why am I telling you this “stuff”

I tell you because I know one day you will be at the stage I am at and then you will be prepared.

This coaching has been tough for me, it’s the hardest I have ever worked online, but it’s been worth it and I wouldn’t change a thing.

Watching the students grow everyday, seeing them taking giant strides towards success online fills me with pride.

This pride is different to FTM, this is all my own and I gotta tell ya it’s a very special feeling.

And I now I have a real funnel of my own too, something of true value that I can sell and help others.

It’s all clicking into place for me finally, don’t get me wrong, I still have a long way to go…

…but I am on it – trust me!

I really do hope you’re moving your own online business is moving forward and it’s clicking into place for you too.

And if not … your welcome to come join my happy lil Learn With Sally family – you will love it !

C yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Hey Cool Crowd

What a week!

Set up my membership site. Launched my coaching. Held my first webinar.

Phewwwwwww!

I literally have a beer in my hand as I type…just hot off my very first webinar…

(Yep, this one had no hitches lol)

But, OMG I have the coolest bunch of students everrrrr!

The are all “fear facers” I’m telling ya, they make my fear facing look ordinary.

In fact, I just know they are gonna churn out videos left right and center and it took me a year to get in front of the video camera!

I never felt like this before, an immense sense of pride already, weird huh.

Had a mad week to be honest, learned tons of tasks I never done before, so really still learning myself about members areas, recurring payments and a whole ton of other stuff, but I am so so so happy right now.

And the LWS students are such a happy lil bunch too!

All eager to get started and make their mark on the Internet Marketing world.

Their energy is rubbing off on me I tell ya!

I really can’t wait to get started with the meat of the training now and watch them all flyyyyyyyy!

Have to give a shout out to the fear facers…
