WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Jeffrey's Topics

Ideal for Business Owners and Professional Association Members:

Why does everyone go into business for themselves? Freedom. Yet they often end up frustrated because they are spending most of their time running their business, marketing to get business, and the least amount of time actually doing what they went into business to do. They end up feeling frustrated, bogged down and kept from the results they want.

It turns out, it doesn’t have to be that way.

In this talk, attendees will learn a three-part framework that will systemize their practices and behavior so they can take consistent action, learn how to attract and work with only ideal clients and gain clarity on what makes them stand out. 

They can stop working “on” their business, get back to doing more of what they’re great at, grow their business, make more money with less effort and regain the freedom they set out to create in the first place!

  • Learn a six-step marketing system and impact-based business model that will make time spent working on the business efficient and consistent.

  • Develop a core message that when translated into a marketable brand message, provides confidence, direction, and lights a business on fire.

  • Implement a five-step process to attract ideal clients, repel the rest, and create exponential growth by efficiently working only with the most profitable and easy-to-work-with clients.

Ideal for Luxury Service Businesses:

Jeffrey Shaw is uniquely qualified to teach business owners how to succeed in the luxury market. Having been the go-to family portrait photographer in the U.S. for very affluent families for 40 years, as he says, “I don’t just understand this market, I was in their closets.”

Such an intimate experience in the lives of affluent families affords Jeffrey a behind-the-scenes perspective and a deep understanding of the luxury market that your attendees will greatly benefit from.

The luxury market is unique. Rightfully so, it can be a difficult market to break into as they are aggressively targeted. The competition is often not businesses in the same industry and often, business owners don’t come from the same world as those they serve, therefore there can be an inherent disconnect.

But, what you need to know to capture the attention of this highly specialized market, keep clients forever, and grow your luxury service business will be offered in this talk!

  • Learn the 5 emotional triggers that get the luxury market to buy

  • Gain strategies to break into the luxury market and keep clients forever

  • Discover the intimate details that make all the difference in customer experience

Ideal for Corporate Leaders and Teams, Business Owners, High-Achievers, and Motivational Events:

As ambitious individuals driven by success, high achievers often encounter internal obstacles that hinder their progress and prevent them from fully embracing their true potential. Self-doubt may not stop them in their tracks but it is often the cause of a pause that can have significant consequences and cause many to dip their toes in the water as opposed to going all in.

However, when we learn to harness self-doubt, leaders and high achievers can move through moments of self-doubt quicker to overcome these limitations and soar to even greater heights.

This talk will guide attendees through a transformative journey, sharing insights and strategies so they will be equipped with tools to slay self-doubt and unlock their full potential. 

  • Find out how self-doubt is bigger than imposter syndrome and what to do about it

  • Discover the paradox of success: How self-doubt often intensifies as we achieve greater success.

  • Learn 5 strategies to move through self-doubt quicker and get going again
