The secret to running your business like a million-dollar company is all about getting
“back to the basics” . . .

Dear Entrepreneur (or soon-to-be Entrepreneur),

Have you ever asked yourself,
  • "Why isn't my business working for me?"
  • "I am using Facebook and Twitter, but NOBODY seems interested in what I'm doing or how I can help them."
  • "Why am I STILL the best-kept secret in my industry? Why do I seem to attract people who don't want to pay for my services or products, or are always looking for a discount or a "hook-up"?"
  • "I've been a (fill in the blank) for 5 years and I still feel like I don't know what I'm doing. What am I doing wrong?"
  • "I teach (confidence/law of attraction/leadership etc) but people don't want to buy that. How can I tie in what I teach to something they DO want to buy and still be authentic to what I want to do?"
  • "I help people achieve success, but I'm feeling like a fraud because my business isn't doing well! How do I change that?"
  • "What's wrong with my business?"
  • "What's wrong with ME?!"
Maybe you are having similar questions, or even worse! The sad part is that I hear versions of these statements almost EVERY SINGLE DAY! If this sounds like you, don't feel bad, because you're not alone.
 


What if a SIMPLE PLAN could break through any barriers standing in your way to success?

Every one of us starts out as a beginner . . . and sometimes going back to basics is exactly what we need to learn (or be reminded of) to get where we want to be. I want to share all the steps I painstakingly learned in order to run a multi-million dollar enterprise over the past 10 years . . . and these very same steps work whether you want to run a part-time, medium-sized, or mega-global business. 

For years now I've heard rumblings in my community about how difficult it is to implement higher-level strategies because so many people do not have these basics in place:

Now, I'm not going to name any names... but...

Imagine being a virtual assistant, someone in charge of organizing other entrepreneurs and business owners, and keeping track of THEIR details, but your bookkeeping is a mess, your website isn't ready yet (and it's been months since you've told yourself you'd finish it!), you're doing it all and have little to nothing in the bank to show for it. You're juggling so many balls in the air that even when you attempt to "do something proactive" like attend a networking meeting, you end up getting there late and looking haggardly because you're running on empty! Not good for your credibility, OR your self-esteem!

Imagine you're a trainer or speaker, and every time someone approaches you to hire you, you have to reinvent the wheel and start from scratch writing proposals, rummaging through your files to get articles, photos and testimonials to make a decent media kit, running to Kinko's to get your documents collated because you haven't implemented simple techniques that would automate the entire sales process for you.

Imagine being a consultant (in marketing, or web design, or IT), trading your time for dollars. There are only 24 hours in the day, which means there will always be a ceiling on how much you can make if your money is tied to your time. But nobody taught you how to leverage your expertise into products, continuity programs, or even bringing your offline business into an online environment, so even though you've been in your profession for years, you still look like an amateur.

This is unacceptable! And these are real people I've run across, believe me, it's out there - and I wanted to help. So I've retraced my own path from where I began to where I am today, in an easy-to-follow roadmap.

Do you know my story?

Fresh out of college, I worked as a financial planner for a well-known investment house. Trying to get ahead, I worked 80+ hours per week in a hungry, grueling "sell, sell, sell" environment that was choking the life out of me! I had to keep getting more and more clients because the ones I got kept leaving. Why? Because I wasn't talking their language. They weren't relating to me. When I figured out that my client base was all entrepreneurs, I not only started identifying with their working style and financial priorities (very different than an average "corporate" customer), but I developed a program to teach other financial planners how to do the same (my first foray into information products before I knew that's what people called it. To me, it was "intellectual property").

I went around the country teaching the course I developed, until my employer decided they wanted me to go back into the "sell-the-customer" mode. I didn't. They wanted to "transition me out", but still keep the wildly successful program I developed as their own. NO SIR! I negotiated to license my program to them, and teach others how to teach it -- my first info-product, my first licensing and continuity program. That was the first time I saw a six-figure year for work I had done months before!

In that one conversation, I went from having a cushy job with a six-figure annual salary, to now having to scramble to start a business so I could cash the six-figure check they had just handed me (I told them to make the check out to "Ogando Associates" before there even WAS an Ogando Associates - talk about faith!) So I learned the ropes of what it takes to run a business from the inside out because I had to - I didn't have a job as a "fall-back" plan anymore.

Fast forward to 2008, my consulting and coaching company was ranked by Inc 500 as one of the fastest growing companies in the U.S. - at a time when businesses were closing and entrepreneurs were freaking out because of the recession! Today, I am pursuing my PhD (a lifelong dream), publishing my signature book (out in June 2010, actually!), and taking all of you with me to the pinnacle of success.

Business Basics 101 is like getting a Master’s Degree in entrepreneurship!

So now you might be wondering... 

How is this all going to work? How am I going to get my hands on this amazing information?

Here is what you get in this ground-breaking program:

  1. Five info-packed, professionally recorded audio CD's. I cover the areas most successful business people prefer to keep under wraps. Not sure why, but it seems the critical and basic things that keep your business thriving are simply not discussed by other "teachers."
  2. Full PDF transcripts. If you are a visual learner, you will enjoy scanning the transcripts of the audios and jotting your own notes as you follow along.
  3. Million-Dollar Resource Guide. We constantly update this resource guide every few months, to keep you on top of all our recommended reference websites, reminders of business-crucial timelines (such as when to submit your taxes and to whom, by when you should have next year's business plan or financial projections ready, etc.),  and time-tested vendors to outsource your administrative and back-office tasks to (such as virtual assistants, book keepers, web designers, fulfillment houses for your information products and books, etc.).
  4. Fun fill-in-the-blank exercises. There is nothing like a quiz or a make-you-think worksheet to reinforce your learning. By doing these, you get practical experience about how to apply your new knowledge to your own business.
  5. Special Question and Answer BONUS AUDIO. Listen in as I mentor other business owners, like you, by answering their personal questions and scenarios.


And that's not all. You'll also get these FANTASTIC bonuses:

Allison Nazarian"Unlike other programs I’ve been involved in, coaching with Monikah offers a consistent and much needed fire under my butt. Monikah is intuitive and quick - every time I talk to her I feel like the fog disappears and I know exactly what I need to do. And then I have the upcoming call to keep my ass in line to make sure I actually go do it! 

And hell, yes, I'd recommend this program to my friends and colleagues! If I had to describe this program to a friend, I'd explain that the coaching calls start out with a ripper inspirational kick in the butt followed by invaluable laser coaching.

Monikah is seriously one of the most talented coaches I've ever worked with. She's incredibly intuitive and whip smart. If you're smart enough to actually listen to her and do what she tells you the results can be life changing.

Allison Nazarian, Copywriting Coach  - www.AllisonNazarian.com







Catriona Brand“I had been freelancing as an artist for over 15 years. After only 3 months of coaching, Monikah gave me such amazing tools and insights that I have shifted the entire infrastructure and perspective of what I do

For the first time ever, I now see how my true calling can actually become profitable. I had been so unaware of what I was truly capable of and the life changing services I could provide beyond hosting empowerment events for women. 

Monikah, you have given so much more that just know-how – although, trust me, I like knowing how things will get done in my business – but more than that, you have literally lifted me up into my greatness and showed me the powerful path I am destined to lead on. It helped me face limiting beliefs and fears that have held me back for way too long. 

And the best part is, the quality of determined business owners that Monikah attracts into all her Mastermind Inner Circle provides the invaluable support and inspiration to step into my highest vision of self.

BONUS 2 - Your Very Own One-on-One Strategy Session with Monikah
(only for the first 10 fast-acting entrepreneurs)

You may have questions that you do not want to discuss in the context of the larger group Q & A call, or that perhaps require deeper discussion than time will allow. That's fine. If you are one of the first 10 people to register, I will gift you a full strategy session with me, to discuss any questions you may have about your course curriculum, but more importantly, to design a course of action for you to start executing in your business right away!

BONUS 3 - FREE 30 Day Membership to the Exclusive
Business Explosion Mastermind Inner Circle
®

I also want to make sure you have ONGOING support and updated information on a regular basis.

That's why I am also giving you an opportunity to experience a FREE 30-day trial membership into the Business Explosion Mastermind Circle! This exciting program delivers...

  • Monthly teleseminars with me and my hand-picked experts in the areas of marketing, success and motivation (All you need to participate is a phone!).
  • Online mp3 digital recordings of each and every call.
  • Hot seat coaching and live Q & A sessions to have your specific business questions answered by me on the spot.
  • Video and text-mobile coaching for that quick "get it together" coaching moment.
  • Private members-only forum to network, brainstorm and share resources.
You don't have to wait - your membership benefits will begin as soon as your purchase is complete. Then if you choose to continue in the Mastermind (a great way to reinforce what you are learning, PLUS connect with other powerful entrepreneurs), your credit card will automatically begin being charged only $97 a month after 30 days. If at any time you want to cancel your membership, simply let us know via email and we will STOP your membership immediately.


Right now, there are a lot of gifted entrepreneurs who are sadly missing some of the most basic business skills... leaving them unable to grow and thrive. There are also many entrepreneurial-minded people who feel trapped in the corporate world with no escape hatch. This breaks my heart.

Even though this program should be required study for ANY ENTREPRENEUR, I understand that this investment could be a financial hardship if I charged what it is actually worth. I could easily ask for 5 times the amount it's selling for now. It's simply THAT valuable. However, I want as many people to get access to this critical material as possible.


This sounds wonderful, Monikah. How much is this going to cost me?

Well, let me be completely honest with you. 

Investing in yourself takes insight, faith, courage, and of course, money. Maybe you have tried other programs or products and have not seen results. Maybe you have tried to piece together your own "program" through free teleseminars and free downloads.

At some point, you must make a decision about the direction of your business and how you will proceed from this moment on. What worked a year ago will likely not work today. Someone else's "blueprint" or "step-by-step system" may be disastrous for your business. And I understand your skepticism, your frustration, and yes, even your fear.

Because I've stood exactly where you are standing right now... many times. And I want you to make the decision an easy one, so I have great options that will help you take action so you can start getting results. If you know me for any length of time, you know one of my sayings is "It works if you work it!"

The investment for this program is $197, for now. The strategy session alone is worth triple the cost of this entire program. And you get it as a bonus if you sign up today.

This program is a self-directed home study program. When we do the official launch, we will be inviting you to purchase Business Basics 101 for just $497 - without the live interaction with me! As an early bird (maybe you participated in my Biz Basics 101 call), I am gifting you $300 off the regular price. You can get this breakthrough "MBA in a Box" course for only $197. But you must hurry. I reserve the right to change it back to its regular price at any moment and without notice!

Look, if this is right for you, there is no question it's going to pay off.

You'll discover new insights for your business, meet new and valuable connections, and find that missing piece to your success. It IS possible to create the business and the life you want... but you must start at the beginning. Business Basics 101 can fill that void, no matter where you are in your life right now.


Wendy Y Bailey“Wow! Your Biz Basics 101 Program is ON FIRE, Monikah! You know your stuff - you are truly an expert business strategist, and what's more, you also know how to break it down into easy-to-understand direction and guidance for folks who truly want to experience business explosion!

So, are you ready to secure your spot or do you have a few more questions?

And listen, if you are still hesitating, you're probably asking yourself questions that might go like this:

Q. Monikah, I love the idea of this program, but I have already tried so many other things. How do I know this will work for me?

A. Can I just keep it real with you? Perhaps part of the reason you've tried other things and they didn't work was PRECISELY because you didn't have the basics in place! That is why I put this program together: to help you design a business foundation that will support the amount of money you want your business to produce, and the difference you are meant to make. A lot of programs out there give you bits and pieces of marketing or sales tips or techniques, but no program out there brings it all together in a cohesive, easy-to-follow structure.

Q. Monikah, your program sounds like a lot of other programs out there. What makes it different?

A. The truth is that there simply hasn't been an easy-to-follow, step-by-step plan for creating a strong base for business owners of all levels to effectively grow their businesses... until now! Business Basics 101 is the ONLY program that connects your unique gifts to a business model that will make you the MOST money and THEN teaches you the payoff strategies so you can track your results and use it to make even MORE money.

Q. Don't I need you to personally help me with my Business Basics? How am I going to get that in a big program?

A. I designed this course with that specific question in mind. My goal is to serve a lot of people and help them all get their business in gear (remember, I'm a coach, so I'm used to working with big groups of people and helping each person in that big group be a success). I have created a platform and a format for this process, so all you need to do is follow the steps. Remember, it works if you work it.

In addition, I'm providing you other success tools and resources, including:

* The Business Basics Course Manual, your main reference guide to keep together all your thoughts, exercises, research, and notes.

* The Mastermind Inner Circle, to help you stay connected with other powerful entrepreneurs and get feedback from others in the class (and I'll even be jumping in from time to time).

* The private strategy session, for you and I to sit down and personally craft your next steps and action plan, customized to your specific needs and your specific business).

The bottom line is this - If the only way you would get results is to work with me directly one-on-one, I would never offer a course like this in the first place.

Q. I want so much to do your new program, Monikah, but I'm scared of making this investment. Every dollar counts, you know.

A. I get it. It can be scary to make an investment in yourself and your business. Keep in mind though that money likes speed - the faster you act, the more  you will be rewarded (like with a private session if you are one of the first 10 to register). And if you wait until I re-release it as as home-study program, you won't get the live interaction with me on the calls AND it will be at a higher price. 

Look, I know you may have been burned before, buying other products or programs that have done nothing to grow your business That is why I am offering a guarantee. You have 30 days to decide if this is right for you. And if it isn't, just send my team an email and I'll refund every penny of your investment.

My Personal "Make-You-Happy" Guarantee!

I know how powerful and transformative this program is. 

That is why I am willing to put my money where my mouth is. I need to know this program is going to work for you and your dream business. I'm giving you 30 days to test-drive Business Basics 101. If you are not 100% thrilled, I want to send your money back right away.

If, within 30 days, you decide the Business Basics 101 package does not meet your expectations, email our support staff and ask me for a prompt refund up to 30 days from your purchase.

That's it. That is my promise. 

Look, if this is something you are supposed to do, the money will show up -- somewhere, somehow. In fact, I suspect it will be showing up in droves shortly after you implement your Meaningful Service homework into your business. Oh, yes, there's homework! And once you start working the system I have outlined for you, once you have your Business Basics nailed down, that when you'll start to see the opportunities and clients flow effortlessly to you.
