I've taken many online and in-person marketing workshops, seminars and coaching over the years so I recognize when a trainer's primary motivation comes from a genuine desire to help others vs. satisfying their ego or their bank account.Katrina Sawa is the real deal! Marketing secrets that I've heard from no one else, and practical spot-on, step-by-step advice flows from her like it's channeled from a higher power! And Katrina doesn't hold back. She generously shares all she has with her customers. As someone whose marketing was hit and miss, at best, until I found Katrina, I'm loyal to her for her honest insights and genuine desire to help me bring my gifts to the world. She has inspired me to believe in myself and my mission, think bigger, create my marketing plan, focus on specific revenue generating activities every day and start building a team to help me grow my business.

The 6-Figure Business Makeover - 6 Week Business & Marketing Training and Transformation Program (For current or seasoned business owners to uplevel quickly)

I designed this 6-week small group laser coaching program to give the newer business or businesses in start up mode the tools, plan and steps you MUST HAVE to get started turning a profit or increasing your profits dramatically. They don't teach this stuff in business school, you need to learn it from someone like me who's been there and done it and doing the type of business or worked with the type of business you want to create or expand. This is a very affordable program since I know there are a ton of things you need to do in the first couple years of your business. I guarantee by enrolling in this program you will SAVE money on things you probably would have invested in that you DON'T NEED because so many new business owners get taken by this or that or sold into things you don't need (yet). First you need to get the basics in place - basic technology, lead generation systems, marketing systems and get your head on straight and clarity around what you're selling, doing, etc. And if you're already rockin' in your business, don't worry we'll help you get the systems, team and upleveled programs in place to transform your business into a more smooth-running, moneymaking machine.

Well, Kat, "Jump Start" are the perfect words to describe your coaching services. But not just "Jump Start Your Marketing." The 1-on-1 VIP coaching you gave me Jump Started my entire business! Because of you, I took my passion from "hobby" status to actual money-in-the-bank "business" status! For me, getting my book written provided the entry I needed to work as a professional speaker and mentor to college women. I knew my passion. I knew my message. But how to organize the most salient points into a book? I needed a hook that would be the foundation of not only my book format but also my workshops, presentations, products, and services.

You asked the right questions, actively listened, and quickly understood the fundamental message I was poised to communicate. Then you synthesized and brainstormed with me until we teased out the strategy. That process -- on top of the myriad and germane marketing pearls you imparted along the way -- empowered me to forge ahead. As a result of your expert guidance, my path became clear and there was no stopping me from that moment on. I simply couldn't have done it without you. You have all the requisite characteristics of a perfect coach: Your enthusiasm and support never wane. Your knowledge and skill are ever-present. And your recommendations are spot-on.

I cannot say enough about your versatility, professionalism and positive energy. You obviously care immensely about your clients and are invested in our success. You've no need for time-filling fluff. You roll up your sleeves, get on board, and provide insightful resolution. Any time I need another "Jump Start," you're my coach, Katrina! Thank you so very much!"

She is a go-getter, full of energy and ideas, and she really wants her clients to succeed. I am a personal coach and helped her get her business started. I turned around and hired Katrina myself several years later to expand my own business.

Many of us start our own business because our passion to do what we love. Then we find out we have to also do that thing called marketing to let people know we're available ... and for many, marketing is not where their passion is. But it is for Katrina! Call her and you'll see!”

“Thank YOU so much for your time and help and for doing the call with me. It was great and I learned SOOOO much! My mind has been reeling in all sorts of creative ways since we talked. And it's all so exciting! I've been re-reading the e-book I mentioned to you (How to Build a Music Website that really sells ) and there's some really great info in there that I'd like to use. I'll email you some of the info over the next few days. I will also take a good luck at the notes you sent and get in touch with the web designers you recommended. Thanks so much!! It would have taken me FOREVER to find someone on my own!!!”

“Listen, I just wanted to let you know I've been slowly but surely implementing your suggestions from our Jumpstart sessions.  I've had my headers and newsletter opt-in changed on my web site, and am in the midst of making many of the other changes you've recommended.  I've hired a new and wonderful web mistress/goddess of all things technical.   I'm also utilizing your Tradeshow do's and don’ts while I prepare for the Every Woman Can event.  I've attached the design of my sign for you to see.  Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for all your great ideas, inspirations, and guidance.”

“Katrina’s very good at zeroing in on the ‘roadblocks’ people put in front of themselves. I think one of my own roadblocks is the way I’ve been looking at my potential for success. I’ve known for awhile now that I’m probably sabotaging myself in ways I don’t even realize (like getting too caught up with ‘details’ and losing sight of the ‘big picture’).  Katrina’s finally helping me get past those.” 

~ Chris Wilson, Word Design, Antelope, CA  www.worddesign.biz

You can tell she’s passionate about helping entrepreneurs – it emanates from the core of her being. She doesn’t just share “kick you in the butt marketing advice” she shares who she is and what she cares deeply about! She has a “glow” about her that is contagious if you’re around her for any length of time. I’ve noticed a HUGE difference in myself as a person, my own success mentality and the success of my company since Katrina and I have been working together! I am so excited about where I am as a person and where my business is headed! I owe a lot of that to Katrina’s tenacious personality and dedication to helping me be the best I can be! Thank you, Katrina for sharing your light (and marketing advice) with the world!”

~ Kimberly King Kerns, Founder/Owner, King & Associates Virtual Assistants

"During the phenomenal marketing sessions I’ve had with Katrina she’s given me many great ideas to help me with my marketing strategy as well as provided feedback on how to jazz up my web site to get more response; how to get started doing an ezine to be more top of mind with my clients; and often times when we’re out networking she just spouts off great ideas for me to use daily!

In just one session she brainstormed with me for great ideas and topics for my ezine and even walked me through designing the template, so all I had to do was input the content and I was ready to launch – making something I had been putting off a reality – and I regularly receive great feedback on my ezine.

One of the ideas she mentioned got my creative juices flowing to develop a unique and successful marketing piece that I took to a conference of 2,000 people that months later I’m still getting noticed for: “You’re the one who was giving away the…at the conference.”

Katrina is the perfect person to get any entrepreneur up and running with new marketing, follow up and business building strategies right away and many of them cost very little but are the most effective forms of marketing that I’ve ever implemented.  I’ve literally doubled my business since implementing these strategies alone!  

I love that Katrina continues to learn and network with other Marketing experts, so she continues to bring fresh ideas to her clients.  She also has a great resource pool of experts in other fields, and has provided me with valuable professional contacts - saving me time and energy in finding resources in other areas.
 
Katrina is a valuable member of my resource team for anything to do with marketing, follow up and business development.  I have been getting great feedback on the content, so based on your great wisdom, I think I’m headed in the right direction. Thank you again Katrina, for your contagious enthusiasm for your work, and helping with my business success!"

~ Susan Rueppel, Owner, Energetic Wisdom www.energeticwisdom.com/ and Personality Dynamics www.personalitydynamics.com/

"Katrina literally has SAVED ME months of trial and error time, as well as, saved me incredible amounts of MONEY by avoiding costly mistakes.”
 
"As a result of Katrina Sawa's 1-On-1 Planning Meeting, I created a new website, wrote a special report, developed an audio script, and began building my list of qualified prospects, all within just a few weeks.  I already had a basic marketing plan, but Katrina supercharged me into action by effectively accelerating the implementation process of the marketing plan.  She provides so much information and specifics on "how to implement" actions that she literally has saved me months of trial and error time, as well as, saved me incredible amounts of money by avoiding costly mistakes.

Any entrepreneur who wishes to successfully take their business to the next level, effectively, quickly, and at a great value, should sign up for Katrina's services and mentor program as soon as possible.  You can't afford NOT to hire her!  Katrina's marketing expertise is that valuable."
