Adding the logo to your listing puts you above all the free listings and makes your listing look more professional. Here is an example of how your directory listing can look. Get Listed!
  • Intermediate Premium: Example. Add instant messenger information, Google Map(!), and more space for text describing your service. The Intermediate Premimum package subscribers are listed above the Basic Premium listings to you move up! And, having more text really lets you describe what you have to offer. The best thing is the Google Map. It really makes your listing look more professional, AND let’s potential clients see where you are located. Here is an example of how your directory listing can look. Get Listed!
  • Pro Premium: Example. Featured Sidebox, website link to your site, up to 10 product listings, 20 images, and ten documents!

10 Keys to Starting Your Successful Hypnosis Practice on a Budget:

  1. (Covered last week.) Why you should set a budget and how you can determine how much you can spend, and other factors.

  2. (Covered last week.) Make a list of the things that you need to spend money on, and then shop around for prices (you can save a lot)!

  3. (Covered last week.) Do not scrimp on hypnosis training! Get great training and your confidence will grow immensely! Celeste tells us how to find out who has the kind of training you need to be successful with your clients. We recommend generalized training that has a system you can use for a large number of issues.

  4. (Covered last week.) Save money by getting “office training”. Celeste says that it is essential that you learn how to answer the phone and book appointments, set your rates, and more.

  5. Save money by getting really good hypnosis office training. This includes how to market your practice, book telephone calls, set up your office for maximum referrals and more. Celeste recommends the Banyan Business Start-Up Pack as a resource.

  6. Take credit cards using DialPay. You will book more clients when you take credit cards, and DialPay is a really good service. With DialPay you don’t need a credit card machine, or one of those credit card “swipers”. You just call it in and you get paid.

  7. Consider working at home. Then your office rent and utilities are free if you already have the space. Celeste tells you how to do this in the most professional and safe way possible.

  8. Spend money on a website that looks good & invest in SEO. Having a professional looking website can be one of your best marketing investments. We discuss some important search engine optimization (SEO) tips to get the most out of your website.

That is it for this week. Please tell your hypno-friends about our program! We really do appreciate it.

Check back next week for some more “Keys” and maybe we will wrap them up. In the mean time, start using the ideas that we have given you so far, and let us know how it is going.
