Why creating a course becomes necessary If you’re in the coaching/consulting world, at some point you’ll run up to the decision of building out a course so you can have more of an impact. You can only have so much of an impact through speaking, individual or group coaching.
A great marketing mechanism vs. a great offer As course creators, we’re really proud of our programs and all the features and mechanisms we put into them, but it might not be what our clients care about. What could quadruple the results of our programs is stripping all those mechanics and focusing on what they care about. We need to sacrifice the things we want to talk about in order to talk about what they care about, which in Daniel’s case was removing the risk of signing up.
The huge coaching problem “$100M Offers” solves It’s really hard for people to niche down far enough and then figure out a method that can guarantee clients the results as long as they do their part.

More from One Book That Changed My Life
"Psycho-Cybernetics" is one of my personal favorite books, and when I first read it, the underlying idea hit me like a ton of bricks and made a huge impact on my mindset. What if we thought of our subconscious as our own success mechanism? For ghostwriter, book coach, and book editor Deborah Ager, this book came into her life at a time of great personal adversity, and it helped her take steps forward. In this episode, we talk about what we learned from the book and how we put its ideas into practice. Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode Why clarifying our ideas is so important You can have a really powerful idea and one that has a lot of potential, but if it’s buried within a book, even if it’s written very well, it can screw up that whole idea by making it confusing or diluting it.

From an author’s perspective, there’s no greater achievement than having your ideas become so deeply ingrained and absorbed that people unconsciously implement them. If there are two books that have rightfully earned that status, it would be “The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing” by Ries and Trout and “Crossing the Chasm” by Geoffrey Moore. These books have made a life changing impact on a marketer I really respect, Christopher Lochhead, so much so that he believes any card-carrying marketer can’t consider themselves one without reading them.
Daniel Mangena stumbled upon his own success code while trying not to fail at ending his own life, and he has Eckhart Tolle’s "The Power of Now" to thank for it. Dark, but within it, we can learn just how naturally powerful human beings are at changing our own internal programming. It doesn’t matter what we say we want, what matters is what we desire at our deepest unconscious level. What happens when what we want to achieve isn’t in alignment with that internal programming? How do we get our unconscious minds on the side of our desires?
