  Visionary

  When people ask me what I do, I tell them: "I help top-tier social sellers and entrepreneurs eliminate the overwhelm in their marketing efforts so they can have the business of their dreams.But what I really want to say is..."I show people how to get their BAD-ASS AUTHENTICITY back + I do this by giving them the tools to separate themselves in a sea of sameness - once and for all."AND WHAT I REALLY REALLY WANT TO SAY IS...My mom went into contractions in a Gold's Gym parking lot, I've sold everything from Hello Kitty to $1200 knife sets + I create UNAPOLOGETICALLY SIMPLE online marketing courses & done.for.you social media posting plans so that you can focus on the big rocks that help you build the business of your dreams.As you've probably guessed, teaching social sellers how to grow their business through their marketing efforts (and seriously taking down the overwhelm) is kind of my sweet spot.People come to me when they're feeling social media exhaustion or feeling salesy because they don't have a strategy. Through my online courses, done.for.you posting plans, workshops, and masterminds, we'll leave social media "analysis paralysis" behind and focus on the things that are scientifically backed to make the biggest difference in your business.I have a 16+year background in the fitness industry and I've worked with the largest fitness companies in Canada and a few ma and pa shops in between. I've been responsible for over 350 people -- and I've also been self-employed and been responsible for putting dinner on the table --and I've done both of these things. I'm not a newbie business mentor who just popped up. I've lived and breathed this stuff for years and only teach and share what I've tested myself.(**And if you REALLY want MORE, make sure to listen to my podcast: Social Selling Simplified where I ALWAYS get super real about how I starting making 6 figures in my first year of online business.)In Sweat & Social Selling Faith,Ash Show less
