Transcripts
Hey. Hey, everyone. Welcome to another episode of Get Seen with
Speaker:Leilani Wells. I am so excited. We are back for another
Speaker:episode in the edition of the Holiday Entrepreneur
Speaker:Summit, and we are here with one of our speakers
Speaker:sponsors, Chrissy Ferreira, who is absolutely incredible. She is
Speaker:going to be speaking about raising our authority this summit, and
Speaker:I'm going to turn it over to her for second so she can share a
Speaker:little bit about herself because you get to know this amazing
Speaker:hey. Hey. I'm so excited to be speaking at this event. This is
Speaker:Christy Ferreira, known as the authority coach. For those of you guys who have never
Speaker:heard of me, I am a content marketing consultant for high achieving
Speaker:women, and women come to me when they're ready to reinvent themselves as the
Speaker:authority online. So I'm a mom, wife,
Speaker:and busy business owner in the season like you, and so I'm
Speaker:bringing the power of authority to your ears this season.
Speaker:So, as you guys know, if you've been listening, this
Speaker:whole series on our podcast is all
Speaker:dedicated to sharing with y'all why you need to be at the
Speaker:Holiday Entrepreneur Summit. And I'm so excited about this
Speaker:conversation that Christy and I are about to have, because she is someone who
Speaker:has been instrumental on the back end of
Speaker:this event. And not only that, but she is one of our newest Get
Speaker:Seen speakers. She just hosted an incredible master
Speaker:class with our community that everyone's been raving and still
Speaker:talking about with me and the rest of us in the group.
Speaker:And she is somebody who has been
Speaker:just not only instrumental, but I'm
Speaker:learning so much as it pertains to visibility
Speaker:within my business. Because at the same time, as we all
Speaker:do the things that we do, we deserve and need
Speaker:people who can guide us in the things we do in those
Speaker:times where we're like, okay, now it's time for someone to take care of us,
Speaker:right? Like the hairstylist that's always doing everyone else's hair. Like, can someone fix
Speaker:my hair sometimes? And that's how she's been showing up with
Speaker:me assisting on the back end. So will
Speaker:you share a little bit about what we've been doing in our process that you
Speaker:think is going to be so valuable for our guests? Chrissy yeah,
Speaker:so, first of all, let me just say leilani has put her heart and soul
Speaker:into planning out this event, and it's been a vision, and I know she's been
Speaker:waiting all year for this, and I'm honored to be a part of it this
Speaker:year. I was an attendee last year, and so when she asked me, I was
Speaker:duh. Like, of course I want to be a part of this event. But
Speaker:here's what we've been doing behind the scenes is being very intentional,
Speaker:very intentional about your experience, and we've been
Speaker:planning it behind the scenes to ensure that you have
Speaker:everything that you need for this event. This includes
Speaker:having access to the speakers, all the gifts that you're going to be
Speaker:getting at this event, making sure that they're aligned with everyone that's
Speaker:attending, everything from ticket pricing to
Speaker:admission to the bonuses that you get. Everything has been very
Speaker:intentional, and she's been making sure that everything is so
Speaker:streamlined to ensure that you have everything you need in your inbox,
Speaker:you have all your questions are answered and you can
Speaker:just have fun and learn and grow from this event. So I'm really proud of
Speaker:you, Leilani. I'm excited to see this actually unfold. Thank you. Thank
Speaker:you. I appreciate that. And I'm so glad you said yes to all the things
Speaker:because before we got on this podcast, I was like,
Speaker:what did you just give me? It's changed my life. Some of the information
Speaker:that you've shared with me has literally been changing my life beyond the summit. And
Speaker:that's one of the things to me that's so special about the Holiday Entrepreneur Summit.
Speaker:And part of my vision with it is that as we go
Speaker:through the process of creating, because it is a creation every
Speaker:year, it is something that I'm looking to align with the
Speaker:needs of where people are at at every point. It's different in every
Speaker:year when it comes to marketing and visibility. But one of the main things that
Speaker:rings true every single year is I want the people who are on the back
Speaker:end to gain value and grow as well as the audience.
Speaker:So all of the speakers, the people working with me on Tech,
Speaker:the people working with me, like yourself and everyone, I want people to be connected
Speaker:to each other, collaborating and gaining things. I want everyone involved in this
Speaker:to have a level up moving into 2024.
Speaker:And so I really feel like
Speaker:that's something that is being given back to me as well. And it just
Speaker:feels like so wonderful and magical to feel
Speaker:moving into the summit. And I truly believe
Speaker:when you're building something, it's not just about the clients, it's about
Speaker:the people that are working with you and for you, because that
Speaker:also builds and adds to what your clients
Speaker:receive, because everyone's happy behind the scenes, everyone's winning. Right? And so I'm
Speaker:loving seeing it all kind of play itself out. It's really
Speaker:exciting. Yeah. And I will say one of the things, too,
Speaker:that I know you've been doing differently this year is as a
Speaker:host, I've hosted a couple of summits myself. There's a lot that goes into it,
Speaker:and I don't think if you've never hosted an event, you don't realize how many
Speaker:little things that go into it. And it can be really hard to
Speaker:actually enjoy the event as the host. And so with this planning
Speaker:process, when we've been working through the marketing strategy,
Speaker:it's also been centered around you having a good time
Speaker:just like your attendees, because you deserve it as the host to sit back
Speaker:and relax. So everything has been pre planned,
Speaker:pre recorded, pre thought out. And once you
Speaker:actually open the doors, then boom, you should be able to just sit back and
Speaker:enjoy all the fruits of your labor, essentially, right?
Speaker:So, Chrissy, you
Speaker:do know all the things about raising your authority. From my
Speaker:eyes, from my ears, like, I see it all over the place. I see your
Speaker:consistency. I see the way you show up. I love the way you show up.
Speaker:I love your content. Share with everyone some of the key things that you
Speaker:feel about raising your authority. Like, what are some things that you find important
Speaker:for people to know? So when we say
Speaker:authority, we're talking about
Speaker:not only the go to expert in your field, but the person that
Speaker:literally comes front of mind when you think about a certain
Speaker:area in your life or your business that you want to transform. And so in
Speaker:order for us to be the authority, to be that person that
Speaker:people think of, when you think of your specialty, people think your name,
Speaker:your face pops up in their mind, and there's no question in their mind
Speaker:if you're the one that they want to work with. And so when it comes
Speaker:to raising your authority, there are some key elements in that. And one of them
Speaker:is owning what I call your it factor. And we're going to be talking
Speaker:about this a little bit at the summit, but one
Speaker:thing I will say is you've got to figure out what makes you different
Speaker:than others in your industry. And again, we're going to dive into this
Speaker:further. But before you come to the summit, I want you to start thinking about
Speaker:that. What really is different about your process, the way that you
Speaker:support your clients, the way that you get them
Speaker:results? What is different? That is one major thing. And another
Speaker:major thing is how consistent are
Speaker:you with talking about it? Like, are you actually showing
Speaker:up? Are you bragging on your clients? Are you
Speaker:talking about the same transformations daily? Or are you just
Speaker:popping in and out of social media when it's convenient for you? A lot of
Speaker:us, we don't struggle with consistency when we're new business owners.
Speaker:We're the most consistent people there are new business owners will
Speaker:outbeat us any day when it comes to consistency because you're just trying to prove
Speaker:that you can do this. You're trying to prove your worth. You're trying to prove
Speaker:that you made the right decision opening the doors. But as we grow
Speaker:and we have clients, that's when consistency is actually the hardest
Speaker:because things are working and we feel like, okay, I don't need to show
Speaker:up at the same level anymore. I have clients.
Speaker:This happens more and more and more, and then you find yourself
Speaker:at a time of the year where you're like, crap, why is it so hard
Speaker:to get clients, it's because of the consistency you didn't put in a few months
Speaker:before. And so I'm going to be talking a little bit about what
Speaker:goes into being an authority online, how to really
Speaker:position your brand in this way, how to stay front of mind, how to develop
Speaker:your It factor, and how to stay consistent as
Speaker:a successful business owner. You have
Speaker:me floored right now. That is absolutely incredible. I'm looking
Speaker:at this from the perspective of myself and how I've
Speaker:been looking at even up leveling where I'm showing up, because when you
Speaker:do have clients, for me, it's a little bit different,
Speaker:but all the same at the same time, it's like, okay, I have clients
Speaker:and I'm working on their social media, right. And I'm fine
Speaker:tuning, and then the team is fine tuning, and then there's all that going into
Speaker:theirs that when it comes to mine, it's like, whoa, now I have
Speaker:to do mine as well. Right. And so I've been
Speaker:finding treating myself as my own client has been helping,
Speaker:and at the same time, that's just another way
Speaker:that you have been really helping me and seeing that, okay,
Speaker:yeah, I do feel like I don't have to prove myself
Speaker:anymore. Been there, done that. You either get it or you don't.
Speaker:Right. But that's not the way it goes with new people who are just
Speaker:finding you and being about your word and about your salt and about
Speaker:what you say you can do. Right. So there's always a
Speaker:new way that you can be more consistent and show up more and in a
Speaker:better way. And that focus should never go away, especially
Speaker:with all these tools we have now. Thank
Speaker:you for that. The way you describe that, it just hit me. I was like,
Speaker:okay, all right, Leilani, get it together even more. Get off this
Speaker:podcast and make a post. Make ten. Oh, we'll
Speaker:be talking about it, for sure. Yes. I'm so excited. Okay, so
Speaker:we are going to end with sharing with you guys how to find
Speaker:Christy, of course, and then why she and I believe that you need to get
Speaker:your butt in seats at the Holiday
Speaker:Entrepreneur Summit this year. Share with everyone how
Speaker:they can find you and what your thoughts are on why they should be there.
Speaker:Chrissy. Yeah, so first of all, I hang out on Facebook so you can
Speaker:find me. Chrissy Ferreira. I've got a pink background. It might be black,
Speaker:actually, by the time you hear this, but you can find me. I'm one of
Speaker:the only Chrissies on there, and I hang out. I'm going to
Speaker:be launching a podcast soon, so by the time you hear this, you can find
Speaker:me at the Raise Your Authority podcast on Apple,
Speaker:on Spotify, everywhere. And
Speaker:also a great place to kind of stalk me is my website,
Speaker:so you can meet some of my clients on there. Chrissyferrera.com is where you can
Speaker:find me. As far as why you should get to
Speaker:the Get Seen Summit, so I had a blast last
Speaker:year at the summit. I met a lot of great people, a lot of connections
Speaker:I made last year. I still have built those connections. And when I say connections,
Speaker:I mean collaborations. Getting clients referrals, that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker:And that's what we all want. Why do we go to these professional events? Yes,
Speaker:we want to learn. We want to feel inspired, but we want to make money.
Speaker:And so this is a great way to end the
Speaker:year while welcoming a new year. And that's why I'm really excited about
Speaker:the date. Like, the date that you have set. It's at a perfect time.
Speaker:It's before the major holidays,
Speaker:and it's a perfect time to really sit and figure out,
Speaker:what do I really want in 2024 and what can I do
Speaker:today to end my year with a bang? And
Speaker:so if you're looking for a fun, entertaining event
Speaker:where the host truly cares about your experience, get
Speaker:some free gifts, because she's going to be talking about that as well. Some access
Speaker:to the attendees, but also figuring out how
Speaker:to leverage this event to make more money in
Speaker:2024. It's going to be so worth your
Speaker:time. Thank you so much, Christy. I really appreciate
Speaker:it. And I'm so excited about this upcoming coming summit, you guys. I'm
Speaker:going to leave it at that. I'm not even going to share. She said it
Speaker:all that needs to be said. So I'm just excited to see you all
Speaker:at this year's holiday entrepreneur Summit. All right, bye, everyone.
Speaker:Bye.
