Do you think that attending a mentoring retreat can help you speed up the success of your online eCommerce business? If you said “YES”, you are correct. The 4 people who recently attended our June 2019 mentoring retreat have seen incredible changes and success since attending. Their lives have been transformed and their business success paths accelerated.
I’m Elke Clarke, and together with my daughter, Jen Clarke, we mentor and teach creative entrepreneurs how to generate passive online income. We have sold over 12 million dollars worth of products online through Zazzle, an eCommerce platform. This was our first retreat and even though we knew it would empower the attendees, even we were surprised at the impact it had. That is why we feel so passionate about sharing the reviews and stories of the attendees with you here in this article. Keep reading to be inspired and believe that accelerated success is possible for you and your Zazzle business too.
The Mentoring Retreat Accelerates Your Online Business Success
Over the past 2.5 years, we have consistently created more and more training to help you become successful on Zazzle. It started with a weekly blog, then online courses and programs, boot camps, and now our first mentoring retreat, which we held in June 2019. Our goal is always to serve you in the best way so that you will learn and have the tools to accomplish this tough but achievable task of creating a consistent 5 to 6-figure online business using your creativity.
We knew that a 7-day intensive mentoring retreat would accelerate people’s success in their Zazzle business. What we did not expect is how quickly the retreat members would see results and how much it would transform their lives.
Keep reading to hear the stories of each of the retreat members and realize that this can be you. You can be aiming to earn 6-figures in under 3 years like Brandon, or you can find the hidden potential in your business like Gry, or have your life transformed like Michele, or realize you can easily start a Zazzle eCommerce business and be successful at it like Emilie.
Brandon’s Testimonial – The Retreat Exceeded My Expectations
The June Mallorca Mentoring Retreat exceeded my expectations and with Elke and Jen’s guidance we came up with a personalized plan for me to confidently reach my 75K dream goal for the next year. Plus, I have made lifelong friends. – Brandon Bourdages
Brandon’s Zazzle Story
Brandon had already experienced 2 years of meteoric success as a member of The 5 Step Profit Plan VIP Mentoring Program™. Starting with a new Zazzle store and implementing my training, his income went from $0 to $7,500 US in his first year. You can read his journey in the 2-Part Series I posted last year. Click here to read Part 1 – Brandon’s Zazzle Success and Click here to read Part 2 – Brandon’s Zazzle Success
You will be able to read all about how Brandon achieved his 2nd year Zazzle success in an article coming up in the next few weeks. So be sure to come back for that. But for now, I will give you a sneak peek at his second-year results.
Brandon’s 2nd-year goal was $25K. Which is 3X his first-year earnings of $7.5K.
His ACTUAL 2nd-year earnings are $33K !!!!!
That is a 340% increase in 1 year.
Starting from nothing, over the past 2 years, Brandon has earned over $40K total in Zazzle royalties.
Brandon’s Mentoring Retreat Success and Learnings
Brandon came to retreat with the intention of finding out how to reach his 3rd-year dream goal of $50K. Through one on one mentoring time during the retreat, I showed Brandon how his goal could easily be met and he can aim higher.
Now he has set his goal at 75K so that he can achieve his dream goal of 6 figures in under 3 years.
Brandon rapidly implemented the strategy Jen and I devised for him and has already seen accelerated success in the last month.
In July 2019, Brandon had his biggest one-time sale ever. He received a $462 royalty on a $5,754 sale!
How do you achieve a 6-figure goal?
To achieve 6-figures, you must take action and commit to investing in yourself and your business. This is not a hobby this is a proper business. You must be committed to investing the time and money into what you need to grow your business to this significant level.
The first plan of action is to follow a proven plan and diligently and consistently implement all the steps of the plan. The second is to be mentored by someone who has already achieved what you want to achieve.
There is no quick solution because your business is unique. But you have a better chance of success if you use a tried and true plan and have the guidance of someone, who can answer the crucial questions when you get to different stages of your business.
Gry’s Testimonial – Hidden Potential Leads to an Abundance of Ideas
I returned home from the retreat with renewed confidence, an abundance of ideas, and lifelong friends! With my new personalized strategy, I can easily implement specific action steps that will grow my business to 6-figures. – Gry Thunes
Gry’s Story
Gry had dreams of visiting Mallorca, Spain and so when she realized she could combine business with pleasure by attending the mentoring retreat, she was the first to sign up. She is a photographer and graphic designer who has been on Zazzle for a few years. Her store was making her money but she wanted to level up to 6-figures.
Jen and I worked with Gry during the retreat to discover many opportunities that Gry was not taking advantage of. Her Zazzle store inventory had gotten too big for her to see the hidden potential.
Here are just a few things that we identified for Gry to easily accelerate her success:
- new profitable niches for her photography
- products that needed design updates to re-establish her dominance in those niches
- products that would skyrocket in sales with changes to the titles and tags
Now Gry has a personalized inventory production plan, as well as a new branding, marketing and promotional strategy.
Gry’s Post-Retreat Success and Learnings
With the comprehensive plan in place, in less than a month, Gry has:
- updated her store branding
- a clear idea of her target market
- improved her promotion
- increased her Zazzle inventory with updated products, matching products and products in new niches
Gry now feels confident that she can take her business to the 6-figure level. Her Zazzle business has been given new life by taking advantage of the hidden potential that was already there and expanding into new niche opportunities.
How do you find the hidden potential in your business?
It’s important to obtain different perspectives on your business. Since you are working on it day after day, year after year, you are too close to seeing the big picture. You also become super specialized in your niche and can not see the potential in other niches that your designs could easily transition into and also be successful.
Michèle’s Testimonial – Confidence and Direction
Over the 7 days, Elke and Jen helped me transform my mindset. I am now confident in myself and in the direction of my business and know the strategic action plans to implement to accomplish my goals. – Michèle Davies
Michèle’s Story
Michèle was excited but also concerned that she was too new to Zazzle to benefit from the mentoring retreat. As you will hear in her video testimonial below, she learned the most, had the biggest transformation, and felt comfortable contributing and receiving advice from fellow retreat members.
For Michèle, the retreat was essential to empower her with the confidence she needed to overcome money blocks. The 7 days of personal interaction with Jen and I also allowed Michèle to become more confident and believe in her potential and abilities to create a profitable business.
In the retreat, Michèle received the guidance to properly set up her business and follow a plan that will accentuate and profit from her unique creative abilities.
Michèle’s Post-Retreat Learnings and Success
Since the retreat a month ago, Michèle has tackled technology challenges that have previously stopped her from moving forward. She has gone beyond her comfort zone and created designs that she had previously been putting off or was too afraid to post for sale.
She has even entered the recent design challenge for Holiday cards. Before the retreat, this was not something she would have considered. With Michèle’s new confidence, she no longer will be missing out on opportunities.
How Can You Achieve The Confidence and Direction to Embark on Your Entrepreneurial Journey
The success of a business depends on the set-up and foundation on which it is built as well as on the mindset and the skills of the business owner.
It is important for you to obtain the training and tools you need to take action to build your business. However, if you are not in the correct mindset, all your decisions and actions will be influenced by a less-than-optimal mindset. This will sabotage your business and no matter how hard you work, you will not achieve success.
Emilie’s Testimonial – It Was a Life-Changing Experience to be Mentored
It has been a life-changing experience meeting and being mentored by Elke and Jen. I am a complete beginner and since I received their guidance and training, I have already made 18 sales in less than a month.. – Emilie Bourdages
Emilie’s Story
Emilie is a successful portrait photographer. She was looking for additional ways to earn income from her love of photography. When she realized that she could use Zazzle she was intrigued but had never done anything with eCommerce before.
For one month before the retreat, Emilie went through The 5 Step Profit Plan Program™ training which she received as a bonus for enrolling in the mentoring retreat. This helped Emilie get her Zazzle store set up properly and ready to make products.
Emilie also found the mindset and productivity training helpful. The mentoring in the retreat helped her feel confident about starting another business even though she was already running a busy successful photography business.
Post-Retreat Learnings and Success
Emilie started posting products for sale during the retreat. In less than a month, Emilie has already sold 18 products from her new Zazzle store.
She is also using the productivity strategies and valuable mindset lessons she learned in the retreat to help her manage all of her businesses.
