FAQ - Interview with Lorraine

Please take a moment to read this before hiring Lorraine.

How long have you been doing what you do and how did you get to be a Productivity Expert?

To answer this question, it's probably best that I share with you.

A brief snapshot of my journey as an entrepreneur…

About 12 years ago, I was used to earning $20 an hour as a personal assistant and had no idea I would have a business where I would be breaking through six-figures.

I was a new business owner, with a dream to earn enough money from my business to replace a regular wage. Big dream huh? But that was my mindset back then.

Like so many other women, I felt I was held back because I needed the flexibility to be around for my children. I took on part-time work to earn extra money, just to feel like I was doing something worthwhile and still manage my family life at the same time. Often that work was uninteresting and unrewarding and I felt dead inside.

Then one day I finally said, “Enough is enough!” I was ready to make my mark on the world.

I had no ‘business’ experience and definitely no marketing skills. I did it all the hard way, but I knew there was one thing that I was very good at and that’s being organized and productive.

I’d go along to various networking events, learning everything I could about owning/running a business, plus doing lots of personal development. Although I met people and learned valuable ideas to implement, there still were many missing parts of the puzzle.

I learned about sales and marketing, how to be an entrepreneur, how to stay sane while running a business - you name it, I probably went to it. However there was never any step by step process to tie all this knowledge together.

I invested thousands of dollars over the years on my own education. I’ve been part of high end coaching groups and been coached regularly myself, yet it hasn’t been enough… until I took action.

I took the best of all I learned and turned it into an easy-to-understand and implement system that would build a strong business, without busting my butt to get it. Once I set the system up and got it running, business started booming.

I found that there were 6 key areas that need to be addressed to provide you with a business you enjoy, provide you with the time, money and quality of life, which I call The Productivity and Profit System.

I’ve coached many business owners over the years using this proven system and the results are remarkable.

Who are your clients exactly?

I work with people just like you solopreneurs and small business owners who are really good at what they do; however, have never been taught exactly how to organize their time, their systems or their marketing so they make much more money and still enjoy a life!

Here are some of the professions I’ve worked with:

  • Accountants
  • Air Conditioning and Plumbing Contractors
  • Caterers
  • Chiropractors
  • Computer Technicians
  • Consultants
  • Copywriters
  • Financial Planners
  • Graphic Designers
  • Image Consultants
  • Interior Decorators
  • Marketing Consultants
  • Mortgage Brokers
  • Personal Trainers
  • Professional Property
  • Investors
  • Property Managers
  • Salon/Spa Owners
  • Speakers
  • Swimming Pool Builders

What happens if you haven't yet worked with people in my field?

I have worked with hundreds of clients in a wide scope of industries. Most likely I have worked with people in your field. Yet, I have to share with you that if I haven't, you are not at a disadvantage. Here's why: people in your field are probably ALL doing the same things to improve their productivity and their profits. What my current and former clients have found exceedingly helpful is that I bring an extremely fresh perspective to how they do business and give them proven strategies they'd never heard of in their field. Because of this, they discover much more effective ways to get organized and make much more money without working any harder!

How are you different from other "business coaches?"

I ONLY work with sole practitioners and very small businesses. In other words, I don't consult with people in mid-sized companies or large corporations and I'm not a Jill-of-all-trades-coach. I refer those businesses to other coaches. What that means to you is that I am very focused on anything and everything that works for the sole practitioner. Because my focus is very narrow, what you get with me is no-nonsense, undiluted expertise on what works for independent professionals. I've simply become an expert at this stuff and that's why my clients, groups and customers get great results.

What type of personality do you work best with and what is expected of me?

The Productivity and Profit workshops, products and programs were created for people who are absolutely excited and deadly serious about taking their business to the next level.

Being a high achieving go-getter myself, I'm known to work best with other high achieving go-getters who are ready to get going and want to know exactly what steps to take to make their business more profitable, more rewarding and still enjoy time off.
You will be expected to take serious and consistent action. No excuses anymore, just a very different way of thinking and full support while you achieve your goals…

For what type of professional is this program NOT going to work?

The Productivity and Profit programs are NOT for those who have no money coming in and are absolutely, financially desperate, at least not right away. It's been my experience that people in financial crisis do not trust the recommendations I give them and do not do the work (probably because they spend so much time worrying about where they are going to get next month's rent or mortgage payment.)

If you fall within this category, it's absolutely OK. We've all been in times of financial crisis at one point or another.

You can help yourself by signing up for the free Productivity and Profit tools over email (Click here to subscribe???.) The free information will get you started towards your goals until you're ready to work with me.

This will really help you get primed for our work. When you're ready, call me and we'll get you started. (I'm in no rush and will be here when you need me.)

Another type of person I won't work with (without exception) is the whinger or the chronic skeptic, as well as individuals who consistently make excuses for not taking action or challenging every aspect of the program. If you are one of these people, I gently and respectfully ask that you not call and I hope you understand why. We'll probably just not work well together and I wouldn't want you to waste your time or money.

What exactly is The Productivity and Profit System and what does it include?

Increasing your productivity and your profits begins with knowing what you want to achieve, freeing up your time and then apply the exact steps to reach your goals.
Here's what the System gets you to do:

  • Free up your time for what matters MOST
  • Get the right TEAM in place
  • Master the Skill of PRODUCTIVE Marketing
  • Stay on track with efficient SYSTEMS
  • Focus on Creating WEALTH
  • Make YOURSELF and time with your family a priority

These are the steps of The Productivity and Profit System that I've created after working with hundreds of small business owners over the last 12 years to help them have more time, make more money and work less.

Does this really work?

Yes! The result of our work will consistently provide you with a very profitable business, which runs effectively allowing you to enjoy a greater quality of life! That can mean having more time with your family , relaxing or doing what you love to do. (See Client Testimonials)

  • Make YOU and your family a priority!

Can I contact some of your former clients to see what it's like to work with you?

Yes, I encourage you to! Please go to the Client Testimonials page and read all of them. See which ones you feel drawn to, either because the person has gotten the results you want to get too, or perhaps because that person is in a similar profession. Then feel free to email or call them and ask what they got from working with me and my programs.

How quickly can I expect results?

Obviously, this depends on how long you've been in business and how much you implement from the Action Plans we give you.

However, virtually all of my private clients see results within the first month in the form of having more time and feeling in control. Realistically, their income increases over time and they accelerate their results. Some have doubled, even tripled their revenue in less than three months!

How can I guarantee myself that I will improve my productivity and profitability in record time?

Be totally focused on Productivity and Profit for 6 – 12 months. Understand that it’s not a “quick fix,” it’s not magic and it takes time for you to plant the seeds and for those seeds to grow into the fruit that you can enjoy. All my clients who have diligently applied their Action Plans have successfully grown their businesses, in much less time than they would have on their own AND have made more money than they’ve made doing what they do.

Will I recover the investment I put into this coaching program?

If you’re asking yourself whether you’ll recover your investment in this System, the answer is yes, a resounding YES! Many clients are excited to report that they were able to cover the coaching investment – often by implementing only one simple change.

I want you to stop reading for just one moment and ask yourself, “What is it worth to me to have more free time to work on my business? To have a productive and supportive team? To increase my profits 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% or more without working any harder? To enjoy weekends off to be with my family? To see my children play sports or take them to their activities? To spend quality time with my partner?” Chances are any or all of these benefits will be worth far more to you than your investment for this system.

Something to think about…

What you’re receiving with this program is invaluable. It will move your business faster than you would on your own… and it will give you back your life!
