 Do you understand social media?  Are you curious about learning social media business strategy in a safe, casual group coaching teleclass setting tailored to your needs?

Susan - I've been coaching for years and I've been to many social media programs....

 

I'm offering a [now second] new, personalized group coaching teleclass focused on coaches, consultants and small business owners who want to "do" social media from the ground up to grow their business.

Update: This 2nd class was enrolled to capacity.  A live class will be offered for the first time scheduled, tentatively for Thursday, May 26th, during the day.

This class came about through a taste of  "the niche choosing me" at the November 2010 PCAM (Professional Coaches Association of Michigan) conference in Lansing, Michigan.  The energy of intention by the coaches at my lunch table set it in motion.  The checks below were written at the conference. 

 

The format is:  a 75 minute teleclass (phone), six (6) sessions over eight or nine (8-9) weeks (the class chooses by poll) referencing content on the major social media platforms: 

  • LinkedIn (BranchOut referenced),
  • Facebook for Business,
  • Blogging, Mini-Blogging, Tumblelogging, and
  • Twitter
  • YouTube as a new 5th session, along with Strategy & Integration

The last two sessions over four weeks is focused on a project, done with a coaching partner (recommended but not required) to help build your social media business strategy.  A recurring date and frequency will be set for future sessions using a web-based Doodle calendar and/or via email.  Teleclasses will be recorded, so if you miss one, you'll be able to stay current with the class progress and still benefit from the wisdom of the group coaching discussion.

If you are interested, contact me at:  DebNystrom@Reveln.com.  I'll send you more information.  Your email will not be shared with anyone or added to any list.

It all began with choosing an empty table at lunch rather than sitting with people I knew.

Video:  Deb, the instructor, at PCAM tells the story for how this emergent teleclass "happened" (during Saturday lunch) followed by Jean's testimonial: "I want to feel like I know a lot about social media."

The teleclass idea started with my choosing an empty table at lunch rather that sitting with people I knew.  Grace, pictured below in the red sweater, was the leverage and angel - social capital lady - that helped me get the momentum started for building a group coaching teleclass focused on social media business .

Peggy:  New coach, this coaching class FOR coaches fills a need. 

Susan is writing a check for the class at the PCAM conference, photo below.

Here's Nan, below (who wasn't at the emerging design PCAM conference lunch, but took notes on the teleclass group coaching design listed below in a photo.)  Nan's testimonials are about our ride back where I talked about the design of the class.

Above: Car notes by Nan for the January & February Teleclasses.

Below are quotes from the Saturday afternoon PCAM conference class - Coaching as a Business; by Diane Helbig; Diane heard the story. The value is: "You will be able to do it." 

  • Not that "I'm going to teach it to you," or "I'll walk you through these processes," not, "here's the steps."
  • Rather, when you are done with Deb's new group coaching course, you will be able to do it.

I'd also like to add the value that, with the group coaching, you will be able to tune it for your needs.

 

If you are interested, contact me at:  DebNystrom@Reveln.com.  I'll send you more information.  Your email will not be shared with anyone or added to any list.
