Hey, my name is Michael Rosenberg and I want to welcome you to the entrepreneurs connection show. In this show, we're going to share the tactics, the tricks, the mindset about how you, a coach, consultant expert can connect authentically and genuinely, with your audience with your target clients, so that you can create an impact out in the world. And for me, this changed everything. I went from going from, you know, slamming the phones, cold calling, to genuinely connecting with people and creating amazing relationships. And if you want to do the same, then I can't wait for you to hear everything that we've got all the amazing experts right here on the entrepreneurs connection show. Welcome to the entrepreneurs connection Show. I'm so blessed to have an amazing guest. Samantha Gooden, she is just a beautiful, lovely human being. And I'm so excited for her to share all her wisdom and her knowledge. And I'd love for you to quickly share a little story about how you ended up doing what you're doing right now and how you ended up, you know, putting together this fearless coaches club and the launch Academy for women.
Samantha Gooden 1:14
Oh, my goodness. So thank you so much for having me, Michael. The story is actually you know, like every great story, it starts with tragedy. So I was running the, you know, the scotch bonnet company, which is my marketing company, we had gotten up to about 500 k revenue, I was so proud because it was my only thing. We were doing work with clients in South America and other places. And without warning, even with contracts in place, our main client said bye, bye, we're going to terminate the contract. And I had a team of 20 people had to say goodbye to them, saying goodbye to them was really difficult. So I tried to keep them with me as long as possible, I took between nine and 10 months using all our profits and all my personal savings just trying to keep things afloat. And nothing worked. And because nothing worked. Before I knew it, the company had gone could put and I was flat on my face. And I was stuck not sure how to get food on the table. So I have 20 years of experience in marketing, but most of its traditional experience. And that, you know, I just I had to find a new way. So in July 2019, I borrowed half money enough to pay half of the salary of a team member that I had, and I had $100 left. And I use that to invest into an online course, the online course wound up being the one funnel away challenge taught me so much. And I apply to I learn, they're realizing that we have so much of our own experience that we can share with others. And we can sell, I did that. And that was how I made my first five k online and I just became committed that I wanted to help as many women as possible do the absolutely same thing. So I've gone in I've coached maybe about 100 hundred and 50, probably 130 hundred and 50 women, since that time over the last 12 months learned so many lessons in doing it. And that's that's how the freelance coaches club came up because I realized I challenge is not knowledge. It's not knowledge, Michael, it's the it's actually taking action, taking what I call fearless action. And taking fearless action just means that you're going to feel the fear and do it anyways. And that's why I'm here with you on your podcast because I took the I took the Bleep. And I felt the fear and did it anyways. And that's the same leaf that I encourage all the women in the fearless coaches club to do. And within 40 days, most of them are making their five K and more. So it's a it's a real blessing to be able to do that, you know?
Michael Rosenberg 3:50
Yeah. That's a really powerful story. And, you know, like I was telling you before we started this interview. Well, I'll just say that your story, I don't know if I said this, but your that resonates with me so much exactly what you're saying about just like, having fear and taking it anyway. And I'll be honest, that is coming up for me today. And I'm sure that other people when they're listening to this, it's going to be coming up for them to have this like fear, like the unknown, the what ifs and all that stuff. And, you know, that, you know, this podcast is really about, you know, teaching people and showcasing people of how to connect powerfully, you know, with other people. And, you know, I think that fear plays into that a lot, right? You know, when you reach out to someone like oh, what are they going to think of me like, I don't know, so you won't be the number one, the inside or tactic or thought process Access to, you know, have people more powerfully connect with whoever they're trying to connect with whether it's, you know, a potential client or even their family or even themselves.
Unknown Speaker 5:13
Yeah, yeah,
Samantha Gooden 5:14
this one is one of those questions, I feel like you just asked a million dollar question. And I'm going to tell you something that, you know, some people may say, I don't know all about that this doesn't make any sense. But I'm going to call it my my double A Did you know you have double A batteries? Can we approach for connection. And this is what I call authenticity, and abundance, the authenticity piece in this world, Michael, we are filled with people who are trying to be carbon copies trying to be someone else. And most of the reason why we feeling fear is because we're comparing ourselves to somebody else, or comparing ourselves to this version of success that we think we should have, or we think other people think we should have. However, when you are 100% of you, and you show up that way, it means that you're able to connect authentically because someone is going to recognize you're just a good person, you're not trying to be you're trying to do nothing of the sort. It is your quirks, it is your dimples. It is the sound of your voice, it is the way that you roll your eyes, it is the smile that you have that causes them to want to connect with you. And we're seeing it over and over that within social media, more people want to have authentic connections now than ever before. So if you want to have authentic connections, show up authentically, that's the first aid. The second one is the abundance, knowing that there is an abundance of opportunities, there is an abundance of love and support for you. So here's a little tip that I use, you know, when I'm feeling the fear, I actually start predicting in my own mind what another person's response could be. So I'll write down for myself and say, they love what I say they will love my post, they will receive what I have to say, with happiness. There are people waiting right now for the words that I'm about to speak, my posts will be life changing these kinds of things, I'm actually I'm actually telling myself that I will the spirit of it, knowing that I'm sowing the seeds for these things. I know there's an abundance of love and openness, acceptance, and clients that are waiting for me because of that.
Michael Rosenberg 7:31
That's absolutely so powerful right there. So the double A, we got just to make sure I got it. The second a is abundance. And the first one is authenticity.
Samantha Gooden 7:45
So like before we came on here, I was like you're just so adorable, like your voice, the tone of voice, that it's not just that it's like your vocabulary, like who uses those words, I love it. I want to listen to you just because of that. I love your energy, like and that's the reason that people were tuning in. We're tuning in because we want to have connection with other with other humans. I could I could go into this from I love sci fi. So I could go into it from that perspective, but I want being 100% of yourself. You do that and watch how people actually respond to Yeah, we respond to two men, and one of them back and tune in for more.
Michael Rosenberg 8:24
