CEO Decisions with Kamila®

Ep. 8: Structure + Secure Paying Clients

Season 1, Ep. 8

So you want to start an online business as a service provider….ideally, a coach, therapist, mentor, counselor, facilitator teacher, etc. Today, I’m breaking down everything that you need to do to actually set up your online coaching business. And I'm not talking about the fluffy stuff that you can just Google, OK?


You don't need to apply for your 501c3, 

you don't need to get an EIN number, and 

you definitely do not need to go get trademarked….YET! 


As a nonprofit founder, if you're just starting your online business… before you do any of the stuff that Google normally tells you to do, the first thing that you need to do is start thinking about the offer that you're going to be selling and where you're going to sell it.

  • 5. Ep. 5: Understanding the Sophistication of Your Market and Program Promise

    37:53||Season 1, Ep. 5
    When marketing professionals talk about a sophisticated market, what they are really talking about is attracting quality paying clients.Based on 20+ years of marketing experience, my definition of a high-paying quality client is a client that will pay more than $3,000 for a service. Many will pay that much and more for a service. Sophisticated prospects make a series of decisions in buying services, but the first decision is to buy from those who can solve their unique and specific problem. As you market your program services and build connection with your dream client, you must amplify your Program Promise and understand how they make buying decisions. Once you understand their impetus, your conversion rates will increase...as well as your profit margins.I'm breaking down the psychology of how they make decisions and showing you how to apply this to your program to make it profitable and sustainable. Please follow and leave a tremendous comment.Connect with us on social media!Website: https://www.kamilabrownwashington.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kamilabrownwashington/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KamilaBrownWashington/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kamilabrown-washingtonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kamilabrownwashington/
  • 4. Ep. 4: Monetizing Your Expertise & Building Your Brand Authority

    58:37||Season 1, Ep. 4
    I'm having a powerful conversation with Rhonda Simmons, Founder/CEO, The Simmons Empowerment Foundation. As a former client of The Profitable Blueprint™️, and now in the Million Dollar CEO™️ Mastermind. In this episode, you hear how Rhonda has achieved phenomenal results! She knocked it out of the park, so much so that she exceeded their own expectations. Grab your notebook and take notes on what this client has learned through her Blueprint journey.  We cover the mindset blocks she had to overcome, what it felt like behind the scenes doing the work, and the feelings of elation, shock, awe, and joy over building a revenue generating business, simply by following the easy to implement framework we teach in The Profitable Blueprint™️.  I'm floored how her identity has evolved after establishing her business model, securing her first international client, and her two speaking engagements (domestic & global). A whole bunch of glass ceilings were shattered in this conversation y’all.  If you’re a Nonprofit Founder with an Online Program who is considering joining The Profitable Blueprint™️ to help you create your revenue generating business model by monetizing your expertise with your program offer, but aren’t sure whether the process will work for you or not –then this episode will be a game changer for you. Simple organic marketing strategies that allow you to secure quality paying clients WITHOUT self-funding and relying on grants just like this entrepreneur did!  Connect with us on social media!Website: https://www.kamilabrownwashington.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kamilabrownwashington/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KamilaBrownWashington/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kamilabrown-washingtonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kamilabrownwashington/
  • 3. Ep.3: Why Your Program Isn't Selling

    15:40||Season 1, Ep. 3
    Is your limited belief keeping you from making progress or profits? We often pray to be blessed with more while at the same time feeling unable to let go of our unbelief. When we lack the courage to push past our limitations, we continue to live on the level of what we believe. There’s a lot of noise and chatter out here in these “social media streets.” And, you might be wondering what to believe and how to select a program that will help you achieve your result. So, allow me to help clarify Why Your Program Isn’t Selling…Connect with us on social media!Website: https://www.kamilabrownwashington.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kamilabrownwashington/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KamilaBrownWashington/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kamilabrown-washingtonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kamilabrownwashington/
  • 2. Ep 2: Powerful Strategies for a Profitable Leader

    22:37||Season 1, Ep. 2
    Whenever I am stressed out, it’s an indication that I don't have the strategy or the structure for where I am. Stress is a warning bell that you need to reboot, recalibrate, and either change your structure or your strategy. But no matter whether your progress is up or down, always remember that you wouldn’t be stressed or frustrated if you weren’t close to what you’re trying to achieve. Today, I’m talking about Powerful Strategies for a Profitable Leader. If you loved this episode, I invite you to subscribe, rate & share an honest review.
