SBI! Coaching Introduction

SBI! Coaching is all about helping you be more productive … whether it's coaching through the Action Guide, quickly learning the SBI! modules, or having specific tasks done for your site.

Your dedicated "Show Me" coach, using e-mail, telephone and webinar technology, will provide whatever help you need to get back on track as quickly as possible and improve your productivity.

"DIFM" saves you more time by freeing you up to do what you want to do and saving you from having to learn how to do things you don't! Your "DIFM" coach will discuss your specific needs with you, then complete your project as quickly as possible. Once complete, your DIFM coach will turn everything over to you and explain how to maintain it (if needed).

Whether you choose the Site Designer Template Design Service for blockbuilder 2, a custom header, e-cover, or the full custom design for uploading, our design coaches take your questionnaire and get in touch with you to discuss your wishes for your design.

Jump start your site reputation with the SBI! Web Site Reputation Builder Package (WSRB). Let our team of professionals submit your site using a variety of strategies over a 5-7 week period.

No matter what type of coaching you may need, you can expect to hear from your coach on or before the next business day (but sometimes sooner!).

Contact Coaching

Yes, you can ask questions relating to your site and coaching: …

Get the Most Value From Your Coaching Dollar

Whether you are talking with your coach, e-mailing, or using an instant messenger service, keep in mind, your coach works based on time. Wasted time costs you money. Keep your questions focused and stay on topic.

The initial introduction e-mail from your coach, and e-mails to schedule sessions are free, but additional contacts and consulting questions are chargeable time.

Take a few minutes to plan what you want/need from your coach and you can get the most value from your coaching dollar!

Coaching HQ (the link is near the bottom of Site Central) tracks the time you have used to date. Use this as a guide regarding whether you need to purchase additional time to complete your goals.

Planning In Advance - How Scheduling Works

Once you place your order, you get an e-mail receipt with the link to the questionnaire. Complete the questionnaire and within 24 hours you will receive an e-mail from your Coach to set up an appointment

Already you can see it takes time to process the questionnaire, send it to the coach, have the coach acknowledge the order and contact you, the client.

It is very important that you plan for time to work with your coach; a few hours notice won't cut it, your coach also works with other clients who have already scheduled their appointments too.

So, when you reach out to your coach, allow advance time so you can get the date/time you want with your coach. On weekends, even more advance time may be needed since not all coaches work weekends, or respond to clients on weekends.

Remember, the tighter your availability for an appointment with your coach, the more lead time you need to make the appointment.
 

Giving Your Coach Your Log In Information

In a lot of cases, your coach will need access to your SBI! which means they will ask you for your username and password to Brainstorm It! and/or Site Central. You can opt to give it to them via e-mail or telephone if you prefer.

Depending on what you need done or will be talking to your coach about, your coach may also need access to your Google Webmaster Tools, traffic stats program, affiliate or other income tracking account, store, etc.

If you aren't sure if the person asking for your log in information is your SBI! Coaching Coach, please e-mail us and ask. We are happy to confirm it for you.

The SBI! Coaching "Show Me" Process 

Since everyone learns at a different rate, and each SBIer's needs are unique, we can't give you set estimates on how much time a specific task will take. However, you can use your purchased time in small increments, or all at once, and purchase more hours when you need them.

The Show Me Coaching hours and rates are listed on our Order page. Click on the radio button to the left of the "Show Me" link to see the drop down box of Show Me hours and rates.

Our DIFM list below gives you just a small example of the many things your coach can show you how to do. The time estimates for Show Me are usually more than what it would be for DIFM, but when you learn how to do it, you can do it again, and again, as needed for your site(s) anytime in the future.

Some of the more popular Show Me coaching items include:

The "DIFM" Process and Time Estimates

Please note, times provided are estimates only. Depending on the specific work you need completed, your project may take more or less time than noted here. Your DIFM coach will keep you updated if more DIFM time is needed to complete your project.

The Do It For Me (DIFM) Coaching hours and rates are listed on our Order page. Click on the radio button to the left of the "DIFM" link to see the dropdown box of DIFM hours and rates.

Note: DAYs 2 and 3 are the foundation of your site. While we can "do it for you," we strongly recommend you use "Show Me" Coaching for these DAYs instead as it will help you when you continue building your site and content on your own.

    Extend Your Online Business Reach With the Help of SiteSell Services Facebook Page Packages

    SBI! Coaching, in collaboration with SiteSell Services, is proud to present 3 new Facebook Page Packages (Premium, Training, and Upgrade) to help you take advantage of Facebook's extensive social reach. A Facebook Page is a powerful adjunct to your SBI! business, more time-effective than adding a full blog to your website and more flexible than working around Twitter's 140-character limitation.

    A Facebook Page allows you to post, "like," comment, get notifications about fan activity, and interact with other areas of Facebook as your business, not as you (i.e., not as your personal profile).

    Please note: You will order your Package choice via Coaching, but the SiteSell Services Facebook Page Team performs the actual work.

    Once you decide which package is right for you, place your order on the SBI! Coaching order page. To place your order, click on the radio button to the left of the "DIFM" link. Then select the number of hours (as it relates to the package you want to order), and complete the order processing.

    You will then get an e-mail receipt with a link to the basic DIFM questionnaire. When completing the questionnaire, put the package name in the "Detail" box.

    Once we get the initial questionnaire, with the name of the package you selected, this will trigger an e-mail from SiteSell Services to you. This e-mail will provide a link to the dedicated Facebook Page Questionnaire related to your particular package and more details about the process.

    Work will begin once the SiteSell Services Facebook Page Team receives the completed Facebook Page Questionnaire and required photos (it is important that you have a variety of quality photographs to help personalize your Facebook page and postings - images should be larger and unedited).

    The SiteSell Reputation Builder Program (SRBP) - Package Pricing and Process

    Orders are not being taken for the packages in this program at this time. Due to Google's Penguin algorithm, we felt it was best to incorporate recommendations from Ken as quickly as possible and consequently we are re-evaluating the Program and the packages we offer.

    SBI! Site Review Packages, Time Estimates and Process

    Getting a Site Review is one of the single most popular requests we get from SBIers. The following Site Review options will help move your site to the next level of success.

    The SBI! Site Review is the most effective way to quickly acquire the knowledge of best SBI! practices from an experienced coach so that you can improve the performance of your site significantly and increase both traffic and income.

    A Site Review Report is a roadmap that gives you focus and clarity through recommendations customized to your own site and specific strategies for your particular niche, type of business and target market. In addition, the Report provides you with the guidance and support of proven resources and tools and gives you practical solutions to overcome any issues with your site's keywords, structure, SEO, appearance, PREselling, getting your MWR and much, much more.

    Rather than offering simply an audit, the SBI! Site Review gives you a doable action plan for realizing your site's full potential of attracting free targeted traffic, enhancing visitors' experience so they keep coming back, and producing the highest income possible.

    Please Note: Site Reviews do not include Show Me Coaching or DIFM work to make the recommended fixes. These in depth reviews cover the actual review of the site and preparation of the report.

    The Site Reviews are set up in a "step" fashion that allows you to work your way through the Action Guide, DAY by DAY, and get feedback and recommendations for improvement when you need them. You have the first review done (Basic Site Review); then do the next (Increase Traffic), if needed (for instance, if your traffic isn't building after a reasonable period of time). Finally you are at DAY 10 (or wish to improve your DAY 10 efforts) and request the Monetization Review. Each review offers unique insight into your site with specific recommendations to move your site to the next level:


    Panda Audit and Recommendations

    Please note - We hope to have an update to this section soon. It takes time to review protocol, go over training, etc., and we want to provide you with the best advice for your site and situation.

    Your first step is to do the self-audit for Panda listed in TNT HQ (log in required). Also review the Panda 2.5.2 Report before you order Coaching time.

    Please Note: Site Reviews do not include Show Me Coaching or DIFM work to make the recommended fixes. These in depth reviews cover the actual review of the site and preparation of the report.


    Stage 2: Site Review to Increase Traffic, 3 hours DIFM

    Want to increase its traffic but feel stuck and not sure how to go over the "hump stage"? Need to avoid feeling overwhelmed with implementing the myriad traffic-generating techniques you've read in the Action Guide, Make Your Links Work and TNT section? Want crystal clarity on what will work best for your site?

    As traffic can only increase if your site is properly set up, this detailed Traffic Review is based on the analysis done in the Basic Site Review. You will need to have the Stage 1 review completed first.

    The Site Traffic Review provides you with a written report that clarifies your next steps and provides customized strategies on how to boost your free, targeted traffic and increase visitor retention. This review includes the analysis of:

    (Recommended if your site has Daily Average of over 100 visitors for the last month)

    Want to increase your site's bottom line, i.e. income but don't know or can't decide how to diversify your monetization options? Are you a victim of paralysis by analysis and need fresh ideas on what else you could add to the mix? Are your current monetization strategies not performing well?

    Learn how to optimize your income strategies to improve your bottom line whether you promote hardgoods, e-goods, contextual advertising, lead generation or other strategies.

    The Site Monetization Review provides you with a written report containing specific tips for increasing conversion rates, customized monetization strategies, and recommendations for implementing those options that will give you the highest return.

    As the income generated by your site is in direct proportion with its traffic, the Site Monetization Review Report typically contains helpful recommendations on how to boost your traffic as well. This is a comprehensive report based on the detailed analysis of your site's:

    PLUS, you get three (3) FREE bonus images:

    Site Designer Package Add-ons, available for an additional fee, are:

    To place an order for the Base Level 1 Package plus an Design Add-on, you will need to place 2 orders, one for the package and one for the DIFM Custom Work Hour(s). Or, you could order DIFM time to cover the total amounts of the Basic Level 1 Package plus the Add-on you select.

    As an alternative to a new custom design, you can opt to have just a new header (top image) done for any of the templates within the Site Designer Gallery or just have an edit done to the existing image. You can learn more about custom headers and image edits via the DIFM DAY 6 Advanced section here.

    Custom designs are also available for those who upload their own HTML. See DIFM DAY 6 Advanced above for more information. However if you are willing to get the Design Package for the Level design you wish for blockbuilder 2 (BB2), then you can get the transition template to use for uploading also. This may save you some money, however designs that work in BB2 may be more restrictive than those that are strictly created for uploading.
