Mine has been cold, and very very beautiful.

It was full of some beautiful synchronicities that reminded me that I'm always being guided (we all are). Maybe I'll tell you the full story later in the week... but you really can't make this stuff up. Let's just say there have been lots of tears and chills (in a good way).

Then today I received 2 random gifts in the mail, from 2 different friends, that moved me in such a big way and brought me to tears. Again, a beautiful sign that, no matter how out of whack things can seem at times, I am still on the right track and have so many blessings in my life. We all do.

Last night I worked the door at a boxing event. It was awesome and something really great came out of that as well. 

Too much to go into here, but maybe I'll record a podcast about all of it... and for now I just wanted to remind you that there are forces bigger than you always working on your behalf, if you allow it. And, even in the darkest and saddest times in your life, life can bring you gifts to remind you that you are loved, and to just keep going.

Here's a pic from last night at the boxing event, before the fights started. I love this sport so much. 
 

And here's your recap from the week in case you missed anything.

This Week on YouTube

I received an email the other night from a friend telling me that his massage therapist friend had been paying for a service that gave his customers the ability to book appointments with him online… and that this service charged him each time an appointment was booked. 

When my friend told him he could book appointments online for free with the HBA Funnel Builder, it was a no-brainer for him to move over.
 

My friend built him a beautiful massage site on the HBA Funnel Builder platform, and it’s super easy for his clients to book all different types of appointments with him (massages, salt scrubs, etc), right from the site. 

It’s a beautiful site and a beautiful example of how the HBA Funnel Builder simplifies the game (and the expenses) for so many business owners in literally any niche. 

In this video, I will show you how the appointment scheduling software in the HBA Funnel Builder is being used on this massage site, and I will show you a few other examples of ways that I use the appointment scheduling software in my own business as well. 

Enjoy the video and let me know if you have any questions.

Start Your Year Off Right

I have a new resource for you to help you start your year off powerfully!

What's cool is that this was a bonus that was only available for our paying members inside of our community... but we decided to make it available to the public since so many people need help getting on track with their goals and their mindset at this time of year.

I am elated that I get to share this with you! It's a resource that has made an enormous difference in my life.

It's called The Magical Morning Formula: The 7 Simple Steps For Touching Daily Magic and it's a super powerful training that was created by one of our co-founders, my dear friend Paul Hutchings.

Not only is a he a brilliant genius in so many ways, but he has also used the steps he has laid out for you in this training to totally transform his own life.

AND- when you get your training (it's free by the way) you will also get with it The Little Book Of Magic Affirmations, another resource authored by Paul... a little book chock full of so many affirmations that you can use in lots of different ways to up level your life and business.
 

You can grab it all here for free.
 

New Resource (FREE!)

This Week's Exclusive Training (New!)

I've been given the honor of serving our community in a new way for the couple of months. I was asked to share an over-the-shoulder training for our Premium members to show some of my marketing strategies. 

This is our Traffic & Conversions mastermind, which happens every day, Monday - Friday and is always so filled with gold... and our community loves being able to spend this time together each day to get all of their questions answered and to have the opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper level.

Well, I was recently asked if I would teach on Thursdays, so that's what I've been doing. :)

It's different every week... I just teach whatever I happen to be working on at the moment.

This week I showed my process for promoting my YouTube videos using short form videos, on 5 different short form video platforms, and in my stories (where I can use a live link to send people directly to my YouTube video. 
 

It works like a charm and it's so simple and doesn't take much time at all (I create one video and repurpose it on all of the platforms).

The week before, I shared my podcasting process, from soup to nuts.

As I said, it will be different every week, and we have different people teaching on the other days of the week as well, so it's one of the best places I've ever seen to come and get trained over-the-shoulder by people who are getting great results with their marketing... and these marketing strategies apply to any business at all!

I can't share the training with you, as it's exclusive in the back office for our Premium members.

But... here's the good news! 

If you want to watch the replay and any of the other replays (we have ALL of the replays available in a playlist)... you can get instant access to it inside of our Premium membership. 

When you join our All-In-One Business here for only $25, you will get two full FREE weeks of Premium, so not only can you watch the replays from our masterminds and go through all of the marketing strategy training in the back office, but you will also get to attend all of our live masterminds for 2 full weeks, for free! 

We have 7 Zoom masterminds every week, so this is a great way to come and get the training and comradery that you need to get your business going!

It's seriously a win-win, and you can get access here (just be sure and click the box at checkout to access your 2 free weeks of Premium). 

And then I will see you on Zoom this week! 

Featured Short Form Video

Although I can't share that training I mentioned above with you since it's for members only, I can show you the video I created on that training, so that you can get an idea of how I promote my YouTube videos using short form video.
 

A Sneak Peek Into Our Community & Back Office

A couple of weeks ago, we pulled back the curtain on one of our Saturday new member orientation sessions... so that people who are not members inside of the Home Business Academy yet could come hang out with us and see what we're all about.

• our tools and training
• affiliate marketing (we pay 80% commissions for referrals on our products)
• how we've been able to provide 216,569 meals so far to starving children 
• our community
• anything else...

You can watch the replay from the orientation here.
 

Meet Our Community

I am so proud of my online community- we are entrepreneurs from all types of niches and spaces, and from all walks of life.

But we have one thing in common... we are all heart-centered people who believe in building businesses in a principle centered way.

I wanted to invite you to come meet us... to get a taste of what a powerful core community feels like- in case you are wanting something like this for yourself. 

Here is some new footage to give you a taste of what our community is like.

You may notice a common word that everyone says... family.

Our community has been described as:
 

"It's like a real family." - Gaetan Henaux

"Warming. Full of love" - Gregory Pierre-Louis

"Very different. We do everything together," - Gio Ambrose Gionta
 

And more- as you will see in the video.

It really is like a family here. Go see for yourself.
