Subscription and membership sites are easier than even with Crowdfunding

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/11/2018 -- Membership businesses are not new. However, more and more entrepreneurs are discovering that they can created and run one without setting up a membership site and buying or leasing software. Crowdfunding sites like Patreon have made it easy to build your subscription or membership business. Youtube has created a form of it for creators who have at least 100,000 viewers. With the new YouTube plan, you can also sell items straight from your youtube channel. It's never been easier to start a subscription business.

"Subscription or membership businesses are easy to start and easy to grow because you are only trying to work with those who are already interested in what you do." Says Dr. Letitia Wright, America's Crowdfunding Strategist. "You simply tap into an already existing tribe with the same interests." This kind of crowdfunding has always been around but is only suitable for certain types of businesses. Dr. Wright has been teaching people how to use crowdfunding for business for the past several years. She teaches for the Small Business Administration as well as the California SBDC's. "People have been paying thousands of dollars to create a membership site, and it's no longer needed in many cases. It depends on the business, but in many cases, if you are starting out and want to know if your idea will even catch on, using Patreon will help you save money as you grow your business," says Dr. Wright.

Dr. Wright is teaching a new workshop on how to create your own Membership business without having to invest in a site if you don't want to.

These subscription or membership business make money each month and are easy to build once you understand the business model and plan.

Now anyone can test a business idea for free to see if it will be profitable

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/13/2018 -- Business crowdfunding always starts with an idea that the owner is not sure will work. While Crowdfunding can be used to prove that there is a market for the business idea, sometimes even the idea needs a bit of refining before you send it out into the market. Dr. Wright came up with the Idea Challenge as a way to help people better formulate their business idea and get it ready for crowdfunding. The 10-day challenge allows them to formulate it and then put together a basic campaign and ask for money to get some preliminary reactions to their business idea.

"I wanted to give people more confidence in getting their business ideas out there. A lot of people have great ideas, but not support. They have no way of knowing if their idea has any chance of making it. That's why we see many people chasing ideas that never have a chance to work and some people never bothering to follow up on ideas that would be winners. " Says Dr. Wright. The way the Idea Challenge works is that when a person signs up, they have 10 days to work on their idea. Each day they get an email from Dr. Wright explaining how crowdfunding works and how to apply it to their ideas. "If they follow it step by step, they get to the last day where they are actually going to generate cash with the idea," says Dr. Wright. "That's the real proof that they have a winning idea and should move forward. If not, then there might be some work to do to make it better, or it might be an idea they can get rid of in order to focus on something that could be more productive. Either way, at the end of 10 days, they are in a better place for themselves and their business."

The 10-day Challenge is completely free and anyone can sign up at http://www.GetCrowdfundednow.com.

Sharing the Sandbox: The Challenges and Rewards of Team Teaching

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/10/2018 -- Dr. Buckhanan shared the job of bringing seven different professors together and making it work to begin exposing the students to what it takes to be an entrepreneur. His experiences of combining a multi-disciplinary team of professionals to pilot the first course in the Innovation and Entrepreneurship certificate at Andrews University helped formulate the class instruction. He presented lessons learned in going from "the call" to teaching the course in two weeks flat. "I was happy to see how the participants were eager to take what they learned from me back to their colleges. I hope to save them a lot of time as well as trial and error," says Dr. Buckhanan.

In his second session, Dr. Buckhanan addressed several important questions. How can teachers and trainers can apply experiential learning theories to their instructional design so that students are more engaged? How can they help ensure that students achieve their outcomes while addressing individual needs? He also discussed the different roles the leader takes on in the classroom including facilitator, lecturer, coach, and advisor. "It's an important topic for professors today because cross-disciplinary teams are the new norm and bringing them together requires leading sideways as well as leading "downward," says Dr. Wayne Buckhanan. Demonstrating a model for others to use in their own classroom experiences and their businesses is important. "Providing teachers with these skills (that have been adopted by the Center For Creative Leadership as their standard format) makes them more effective without adding significant resources to their classroom. The same techniques make higher education and professional training more effective as well."

Dr. Letitia Wright's podcast is now doubled in listeners

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/08/2018 -- In 2017, Crowdfunding raised $87 Billion Dollars in Business Crowdfunding. Dr. Letitia Wright has been teaching crowdfunding to business owners for 6 years and this year she launched the Get Crowdfunded Now Podcast. "I wanted to find a simple way to teach quick and easy crowdfunding lessons while keeping people abreast of the crowdfunding news." says Dr. Wright.

Podcasting seemed the simplest way to get it done.

Spotify recently added the podcast to their lineup. Now listeners can subscribe to it on Spotify, Google Home, or Alexa by using the Alexa briefings. "It makes it easy for people to make it part of their daily listen while they commute or do other things. Business owners continue to learn and this can be part of their business learning every single day." remarked Dr. Wright. The numbers of listeners have doubled since the podcast was added to Spotify and she is very excited about future interviews that the new listeners will get to hear. In the past, she has featured experts Judy Hoberman from Selling in a Skirt and Oren Klaff from Pitch Anything. She has also had successful crowdfunders who have raised millions of dollars, share their experience and knowledge from their journey. 'I recently added some podcasts I call Road Riffs which are my thoughts while on travel. I learn a lot while I am traveling and I didn't want to lose those thoughts and the energy behind them. I go ahead and capture them and record and them post without the usual production the shows have. They are a little different, but I hope people will enjoy them. I'm interested in the feedback and that will determine if I continue to do those." says Dr. Letitia Wright.

The Get Crowdfunded Now Podcast can also be found on Anchor.fm, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Google Play, Radio Public, and Breaker.

The launch of the Next Level Empowerment and Development Academy

Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/12/2018 -- For over 25 years Sharise L. Erby-Castle has defied her self-definition as an introvert, choosing to boldly minister, motivate and inspire women to embrace their unique greatness and empowered destiny. Sharise leverages her messaging through her Phenomenal Woman Empowerment Network, PWEN, started in 2005 as an annual women's conference and expanded into a 501c3 non-profit membership organization in 2013.

In May 2018, PWEN Founder, Sharise L. Erby-Castle, announced its evolution from a membership base to a partner platform. It also launched the "Next Level Empowerment and Development Academy," an online platform that offers access to Sharise's empowerment, and success support systems, plus content from PWEN partners. Sharise L. Erby-Castle speaks and teaches from her heart, sharing real-life experiences with a fearless intent to create a relatedness that women and men connect to

Sharise L. Erby-Castle's PWEN, views it's mission is to meet women right where they are personally, professionally, and spiritually, providing them with the resources and tools to leave them empowered, encouraged, equipped, and elevated. PWEN delivers its program through workshops, seminars, conferences, webinars, coaching and mentoring. It serves the entrepreneurial movement through boot camps, workshops, coaching and mentoring.

Plus, PWEN now delivers specific career training, positioning itself to help women who may be struggling with finding work or a career, to become vibrant business owners, and creating their own economy. Through PWEN, over 11,000 women and a growing number of men, enjoy next level success, since 2013.

More than "powerful empathy in action," Sharise L. Erby-Castle has an impressive background of professional, artistic and impactful communication skills. Sharise's brilliance emerges from the framework of a Bachelor of Science in Human Services Management, a Master's in Health Administration from the University of Phoenix, and experience in healthcare industry management positions for over 20 years.

Sharise L. Erby-Castle lead operations teams of over 1000 employees, owned an event planning business, co-owned two restaurants, and is the founder of Go Tell It Communications and Publishing LLC. Sharise's skill set is always engaged, creating the atmosphere of high potential that so many celebrate while attending her conferences, summits and speaking engagements.

Sharise L. Erby-Castle has authored 2 transformative books, the latest being "Whole Women Win: Unleashing the Winner from Within." She is an Empowerment Life Coach, a popular inspirational speaker and a licensed minister on staff Family & Faith Christian Church.

What conditions create such a dynamic personality and powerful leader? One of Sharise L. Erby-Castle's answers, fearlessly invites you into her actual life experiences. "My father was an exceptional dad and provider of all I needed, unfortunately he was a lousy husband," Sharise shares. Within this one statement, "unshakable resilience." shows up as a cornerstone in Sharise's life. It underscores her speaking, writing, seminars and exhilarating events.

The attribute of "resilience," permeates Sharise L. Erby-Castle's life stories. It functions as a powerful character trait or "personal policy," that assures people will rebound back to "whole" after disruptive life events. Most importantly, it helps generate a constructive "Corrective Action Plan," CAP, to redirect activity toward supporting vibrant wholeness.

Sharise L. Erby-Castle advocates using a CAP throughout life's trials and tribulations. The detailed steps that move people from tragic dysfunctionality to abundant prosperity are rooted in soul-searching self-assessment. Several years ago, Sharise committed to controlling her blood pressure numbers. Her deep dive into "why," concluded that she was an out-of-control "emotional eater."

Sharise L. Erby-Castle gets animated clarifying her "emotional eating," "It's a continuation of my youth! We soothed our hurts with food and celebrated our victories with even tastier food. I have been a foodie and my personal CAP focused on exercise and nutrition management. I intensely channeled my energies into a discipline of daily action. The result, restoration of my blood pressure wholeness. That was six years ago, and it was without medication," Sharise finishes proudly.

Of course, there's more. Central to every CAP is confronting your own personal actions and attitudes that generate anger, jealousy or resentment. Sharise L. Erby-Castle often counsels women hurt by the church, "Did the church hurt you because you put the preacher on a pedestal, shirking the spiritual practice you know is your personal responsibility?" This internal confrontation grows you forward creating stronger "character muscles." Absorbing the truth of your actions instead of wallowing in ego massaging blame games, leaves you more empowered emotionally and spiritually. Sharise L. Erby-Castle's PWEN, keeps you winning all the time!

It's simple and very profound. Sharise L. Erby-Castle's PWEN has a robust event-based program providing varying degrees of personal and professional development trainings. It is the solution for anyone interested in developing resources and tools to take their success to the next level and experience life empowered, encouraged, equipped, and elevated. Sharise L. Erby-Castle is the real deal that delivers authentic results.

Dr. Wright shares 3 things you need for success

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/09/2017 -- Dr. Letitia Wright, America's Crowdfunding Strategist, has been teaching entrepreneurs how to navigate the crowdfunding landscape for the past five years. She has taught for the Los Angeles Small Business Administration, the Las Vegas Administration, California State University at San Bernardino as well as around the country at various conferences. "While Crowdfunding has changed a lot over the year, it still has great potential. It can be a powerful, game changer for the average business owners when used correctly," says Dr. Wright. "I love helping people understand this 87 Billion dollar market and how to take advantage of it."

Dr. Wright offers a free download of her book Crowdfunding Made Simple: Top 25 sites for crowdfunding on her website. "This is to help people get started and understand what they are doing. Lot's of people attempt to crowdfunding with very little preparation. They find success almost impossible." remarked Dr. Wright. "I'd like to help them get started with the best possible chance for full funding."

There are three things Dr. Wright believes must be in place to have a fully funded crowdfunding campaign:

1) A Clear idea of what the project is: Be able to article what you are doing and why. Instead of a massive plan with lots of moving parts, create one simple project.

2) Create a great video to help people see the big pictures quickly. Lot's of people do not like to read, and a video will help you sell to them immediately.

3) Focus on a target market that is already interested in what you are doing. Instead of trying to get everyone to buy, make sure you are using good marketing intel to get in front of people who already have an interest.

Dr. Wright is booking events for 2018 now and is already speaking in July 2018 at the Power Networking Conference in Maryland.

To book Dr. Wright for an event, just call the office at 909-235-9744 or visit www.wrightplacetv.com.

How to Become a Household Name in 2018

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/27/2017 -- Being the best-kept secret is not good for any business or professional. With smaller and smaller adverting budgets, it can be hard for a new business owner to outspend more established companies to get in front of potential clients. When you are well known or have business celebrity, it allows you to charge more and get clients who are dedicated to being successful. It makes sales easier and helps your enterprise grow faster.

Dr. Letitia Wright from The Wright Place TV Show has spent 17 years helping people become a coveted name brand. "When no one knows who you are, it does not matter how good your products and services are; they won't buy them. If they can see you in the media and other contexts then they will be more inclined to buy from you," says Dr. Wright. Her no-cost workshop on December 27th will focus on planning media and exposure for your business in 2018.

"No need to leave it to chance," says Dr. Wright. The professionals who make the most money, take time to make sure they name is in front of potential clients all the time. Being in front of clients before they need you is the best way to get new clients."

The one-hour workshop will focus on the places that Dr. Wright feels you can get the most exposure to your potential clients. "Being focused on your clients and the types of media they consume will be important. That's the easiest way to stay in front of your perfect client. By using the outlets that your tribe enjoys, you remain relevant in the market." says. Dr. Wright. The no-cost workshop will focus on finding those outlets that help business owners.

To register for the no-cost workshop on December 27th at 6 pm go to 2018 Fame Workshop.

The Red Flags to Watch For

Rancho Cuamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/17/2017 -- Crowdfunding has expanded to being a great place to invest money or help new products come to market by pre-purchasing. The Crowdfunding market saw over 87 Billion dollars exchanged in the market in 2016. This market has attracted scammers whose only purpose is to rip off with good hearts. With the Season of Charity upon us, here are a few things you can do to avoid exploitation.

Disasters and Tragedies: This is the time of year where many more people will take time to try and help their fellow man. The catastrophes get top news coverage. Local tragedies also get a lot of news coverage. Usually, at the end of the news report, they give out a Go Fund Me or similar crowdfunding web link. Not all crowdfunding campaigns are verified. Anyone can raise money for anything, and not all of them are connected to the people they claim to be helping. Some are just scams, taking advantage of a current headline. The website does not request any verification that the person has permission to crowdfund on behalf of the other person. Serval people will start fundraising and just walk off with the money, while the family of the person is completely unaware that any campaign even exists. Look for some sort of verification that this campaign is officially set up with the family's permission.

Create a dialog with the person raising money to make sure it is going to get where it's supposed to go. If you see several crowdfunding campaigns for the same thing, be wary. Verify the organization. All non-profit organizations are registered in their state. Check that the website is secure and has https://, not just HTTP.

Use a credit card to give instead of cash. If you write a check, write it to an organization, not a person.

Failure to Deliver:

Many times new entrepreneurs are overwhelmed with the response to their project and get thousands of more orders than they ever expected. Their lack of experience can cause them to become unable to deliver on time. This result may not be deliberate fraud, just an unsophisticated entrepreneur at work. According to a study that conducted by the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School's Professor Ethan Mollick in 2015 found that 9% of projects on Kickstarter fail to deliver as promised to their backers. When you support an item with a pre-purchase on a crowdfunding website, the contract is between you and the seller. The crowdfunding site does not oversee the project or check to be delivery happens on time. You can check the terms or service of the sites before you give. In most cases, you are taking a chance, and it pays off. However, there is always a 9% chance that you will never get the item you "purchased." The Buyer is taking the risk. The terms on Kickstarter say "All content you access through the Services is at your own risk. You're solely responsible for any resulting damage or loss to any party." Send the creators a message and check their social media links to see if they go back to the same person. Look for actual phone numbers and other ways to contact the company should you have a problem. The website will not be able to help you recover any money lost.

Done for you crowdfunding:

Many people are too busy to get their campaign off the ground, or they just don't have the skills needed to do it. When it comes to raising money for media production, there seems to be a never-ending line of intermediaries, ready to help you raise money for your show. However, a finder who has no ownership interest in the production company itself, and is contracted to introduce passive investors to the actual owners of the production company, is acting within the definition of a "securities broker." Unless that individual finder has a bona fide securities broker license, his actions are criminal. You have to be careful. An unsuspecting producer that hires that finder can be viewed as an accomplice. The fact that so many in the film industry rely on so-called "finders" has created a widespread misconception that the rules governing securities' brokers and dealers in all other industries doesn't apply to the entertainment industry. A skilled attorney would be able to distinguish a lawful finder situation from an unlawful unlicensed broker/dealer situation, though the distinctions can often be quite subtle.

Dr. Letitia Wright is a Crowdfunding Expert in the Top 100 Crowdfunding Experts of 2017 and is available by phone for last minute interviews on crowdfunding.

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/13/2017 -- Entrepreneurship has been recognized as the clear path to financial independence. But for those who are employed, there appeared to be very few options to participate in an enterprise. Ivey Stokes, the founder of My Econ formed a company that helps employed people start their own business and work towards financial independence without having to quit their full-time job.

Ivey Stokes has been teaching people about their finances for 14 years. "Years ago, people would tell me that I would not be able to teach people this stuff. I said That's just silly. I knew they were wrong!" says Stokes. "You can have wealth in your family, and we are going to show you where to get the money. Every day in My Econ, we teach people to find an extra $200 to $500 a month in the paycheck, and we show them how to get out of debt and invest. It's a new day."

Ivey J. Stokes has been the Chairman of the Board of Maxxis Group Inc., since January 24, 1997, and served as Chief Executive Officer and President since September 1999. Mr. Stokes began his marketing career in 1982 at A.L. Williams Corporation ('A.L. Williams') where he became one of less than 400 National Sales Directors out of 1.3 million insurance agents.

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/22/2017 -- Dr. Letitia Wright from Wright Place TV Show has a Facebook Livestream called Media Mondays. It's an interview show with live audience interaction. The goal is to help the entrepreneurs watching learn how to work with the media for the own brands and be inspired to create their own media. "Years ago, I wrote that products would have their own shows and everyday people would have their own shows." Says Dr. Wright. "I had no idea that it would live stream on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and all the other ways you can have your own show, but I knew it would happen."

Television has thousands of channels, and yet the average person still has a hard time getting a show on those channels. Now because of the internet, there are thousands of ways to have your own shows. "Currently my eight-year-old nephew has his own show. He is still learning about content and what he wants his channel to be about, but he understands the basics of demand and how to monetize it," says Dr. Wright. "I want to encourage the people everywhere to not only create great content to but monetize it." The Media Mondays show is now called Marquise Media Mondays and starts on September 25th at 4 pm PST.

Also, we will do some online networking and Business Development. I call it the Biz Dev Minutes, where people can share their Facebook pages and talk about their business needs and wants. It is a time for people to get to know one another and do business together" remarked Dr. Wright.

Quick videos of five minutes or less for business owners

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/12/2017 -- With over 2,500 live crowdfunding sites that the public could choose from when they start crowdfunding, it might be hard to figure out which one to use. To make those choices easier, Dr. Letitia Wright has a new series of Crowdfunding video in which she talks about different crowdfunding sites. "I am always asked Which is the best crowdfunding site to use. The answer is, it depends on what your goal is. I also wanted to include some quick updates on changes in the website and how they will impact the users." says Dr. Wright.

She has been teaching crowdfunding for the last five years. Her goal is to educate entrepreneurs on what is available and how they can use it for business. "By creating these short videos, people can take in the information in bite-sized chunks. I don't want to overwhelm people. Very few people like to read and study about crowdfunding for hours at a time as I do. People need to get information and concepts quickly so they can apply them." remarked Dr. Wright. The videos are free to watch on her YouTube Channel and are also featured on her website and her blog on Medium.com. "There is easy, quick access to the videos everywhere online. If they leave a comment or ask a question, I can create a video to answer those too. I'm about serving the entrepreneurs who want to use the crowdfunding tools."

Without preparation and a bit of education, many attempts at crowdfunding fail. The majority of crowdfunding projects bring less than $500. The people who fail at crowdfunding feel that they wasted their time. Often when a business owners fail at crowdfunding, it gives the public the impression that they business is failing too. "I've seen perfectly good companies do a bad crowdfunding project that raised no money and it created a new conversation in their community about their business. The conversation goes like this- if they are so successful, why do they need crowdfunding? People also begin to think that the business is about to go under and don't want to spend money with that company for fear they will not get what they paid for. " says Dr. Wright. "It is important for businesses that crowdfund get it right, so as not to damage their reputation.

You can find the videos here, https://youtu.be/YdVlIbYvIWc or get the notices of new videos each week at http://getcrowdfundednow.com.

How to get fully funded doing Facebook Crowdfunding

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/30/2017 -- Dr. Letitia Wright, America's Crowdfunding Strategist, has noted the rise in Facebook Crowdfunding. Many people trying to do a fundraiser on Facebook should use crowdfunding methods to make it successful. " I see a lot of individuals raising $50 or $150 in total. They have a hard time breaking through the noise of Facebook to bring attention to their fundraiser. If people used the tactics used for crowdfunding, they would see a significant rise in the amount of money raised.

Crowdfunding has a different set of rules when it comes to success. There are things you will do that do not resemble traditional fundraising. Now that Facebook has over 2 million users, it stands to be the biggest fundraising platform in history. Individuals need to learn how to make it work. Facebook crowdfunding is only used for things that help communities. Facebook crowdfunding is not used for business, yet. "You can use it for health emergencies, pet emergencies, school needs, civic needs as well as for emergency housing. We all know people who need help, and we all know at least 350 people on Facebook who could give $25 towards any particular situation," says Dr. Wright.

When asked why there seems to be so little success, Dr. Wright had this to add. "People are supporting fundraisers but never tell the story of why they are supporting it. They need to tell the story of why its' important to them. There are so many things pulling at our attention; it's difficult for people to prioritize a fundraiser. We need to be better story tellers when it comes to helping others. "

Dr. Wright teaches crowdfunding for the Small Business Administration in Los Angeles, The Small Business Administration in Las Vegas as well as the Inland Empire Women's Business Center.

She is available for interviews by telephone, Skype or Zoom.

Most people are not using influencer marketing at all. My shows gives people an opportunity to combine influencer marketing with traditional media for a greater impact." says Dr. Wright.

The show has featured many business owners over the years. "The goal is to be an example for the community you serve by being successful. Most of the time, real people are not featured on TV and individuals may not get a sense of whether or not they duplicate the success they see on TV.

How to Become Number One in Your Niche

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/21/2017 -- Dr. Letitia Wright created the Media Icon™ Program for Coaches, Authors, and Consultants who want to be considered number 1 in their niche. With over 1,376,080 books published in 2017 (at the time of this article), how do the authors stand out? With hundreds and thousands of life coaches coming into the market daily, how does someone stand out? "The Media Icon™ program was created to answer those questions," says Dr. Wright.

"When I meet authors, most of them have no plan on how to market the book. They have spent all their time on the content with no plan on how to get the book in front of people who want it," says Dr. Wright. "That is a plan for failure. Most people want to be authors, but they also want people to read their book. Gathering a tribe who is interested in what you have to say is key to a best seller that makes money. I invite all authors who book is more than four months old to talk with me about how they can continue to get sales and new clients."

How to avoid rip offs when giving during the holiday season

Rancho Cucamonga, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/14/2017 -- Crowdfunding for charities will reach a new high in the holiday season of 2017. There are more websites, including Facebook, that will allow charities to use their platforms to raise money. The biggest concern to the public is fraud. How do we tell a real charity from a fake one? How do we know the money is going to the charity listed?

Dr. Letitia Wright, America's Crowdfunding Strategist, has a few tips for those who want to give to their favorite charity through a crowdfunding effort. "First you can always call the charity and ask them if this is their fundraising effort. By checking with the charity and letting them know you intend to give but want to be sure they will get it, you will get verification quickly. No non-profit organization can afford to let a donor go unattended." Says Dr. Wright. "Once you have verified that it is them, you can give online or offline. Giving to a crowdfunding effort can be done both ways."

"Be sure the system used to accept payments is one you are familiar with." warns, Dr. Wright. "Everyone knows about Amazon pay, PayPal, Square Up and Cashme, but if it's something you have never heard of, you will want to be cautious and protect your credit card number." Many of the crowdfunding sites had not done a good job in the past when it comes to verifying a crowdfunding project. The contracts say that the legal responsibility is between you and whoever you give the money to. When there are problems, the crowdfunding website is frequently unwilling to step in. In recent months, GoFundMe has been a bit more strict in vetting projects before allowing them to run on their site. Facebook uses Network for good to help vet and release funds to the projects. "Non-profits can raise money, and regular people can raise money for things like pet medical emergencies, personal financial emergencies, and school bills," says Dr. Letitia Wright. "They make it easy to contact friends and family who would be most likely to help."

Dr. Wright has a no-cost download called Crowdfunding Made Easy that can help anyone who wants to crowdfund, get started. You can find it at www.getcrowdfundednow.com.

The Things That Matter

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/13/2017 -- Dr. Letitia Wright has been teaching business owners how to use crowdfunding for over six years now. As the landscape of crowdfunding has changed over the years, the skill-set needed to be successful has also changed. "Many business owners look the success others have found in crowdfunding and do not realize how much preparation had occurred. No one talks about how long they prepared. I have found that people who raise $100,000 or more have typically planned nine to twelves month before their launch." says Dr. Wright. "Lack of preparation is the biggest cause of crowdfunding failure."

Dr. Wright has taught business crowdfunding for the Small Business Administration in Los Angeles and Las Vegas. She will also be teaching for California State Univerisity in San Bernardino for the MBA program. "People all over the world are interested in crowdfunding. It is considered a financial disruptor. Lack of success in crowdfunding has created a lot of disinterest from small business owners who seek to fund their projects. " says Dr. Wright. "There are several types of crowdfunding models now, and most people are using the wrong model for their business. I frequently see companies raising money like they are a non-profit. It does not work well, their audience is confused and often does not respond." She considers this to be a part of proper preparation before launching. Not making sure that you are using the correct model, creates the risk of failure in your crowdfunding.

"The third most popular reason for crowdfunding failure is to forget about the crowd. You have to bring your crowd." Says, Dr. Wright. She does not believe in using the campaign to attract your crowd. She believes in gathering your crowd ahead of time and then launching to the people who are highly interested. "Then all your time and money is spent on people who will give to your campaign. You will result in greater amounts raised as well as more referrals." Because individuals who refer tend to be 'super-fans' understanding who your super-fans are is the key to raising large amounts of money.

How to Eliminate the Competition, so the only thing left is imitation

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/11/2017 -- Most Coaches, Trainers, and Authors need a way to stand out from everyone else in their niche. When people try to compete with lower prices, they create a downward spiral that is hard to win. When people try to compete with customer service, they can hardly distinguish themselves from others. Credibility makes the difference in a niche that is overflowing with worthy competitors."My clients enjoy a level of credibility that not only gets them great clients but also allows them to charge premium prices." Says Dr. Letitia Wright, Host of the Wright Place TV Show and creator of the Media Icon ™ Program.

"Many people in business try to get booked on shows and do a ton of social media advertising. I say don't stop there, become the well- known expert in the field. This is how you become the first choice of new clients and get referrals from old clients." remarked Dr. Wright. On May 24th at 6 a.m. Pacific Standard Time, Dr. Wright will have one-hour Teleclass called Raise Your Profile, Raise Your Prices.

Campaign Ends May 14, 2017

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/11/2017 -- Rhonda Santifer started her Los Angeles-based non-profit organization for people who were in treatment for cancer. She wanted to provide home health care nurses and fill other needs that health insurance did not cover. "Some people can't drive and need a ride back and forth to the doctor. A taxi can be expensive. I wanted to make sure people were getting to their follow up appointments." says Santifer. Lately, she has found patients with a new problem: The ability to pay their co-pays and premiums even when they are covered with health insurance.

When a working person with health insurance goes into treatment for cancer, that person can be off work anywhere from six weeks to six months or more. They are not getting their regular paychecks and money begins to run low. Then some have to make adjustments to their budgets. Often forgoing additional costly doctor's visits to make sure the family has food. "Some medicines cost $300 for just ten pills. Some of the patients just don't have it. These drugs make it possible to recover quickly. "Says Santifer. She started a crowdfunding project at http://www.celebratelifefundraiser.com to help those in need.

This money is going for medicine, co-pays and in some cases premiums so that people can continue treatment and get well. All the patients have been vetted through Celebrate Life Cancer Ministry. Santifer knows exactly who is in need and how the money will be used. The crowdfunding project has been well received by the community, and she has a stretch goal of $4,500.

The campaign ends on May 14th, 2017. Rhonda Santifer considers it a success already. "People have been so supportive; I just want to help as many people as I can.

Dr. Nadia Brown, can wake you up into a life fulfilling what you yearn to do, every day.

Ontario, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/13/2017 -- You probably have heard the saying that goes something like this, "if you love the "work" you do, you will never "work" a day in your life." That idea best describes Dr. Nadia's initial motivation and inspiration. Working her corporate job was an "ever-nagging" pain that jabbed at her each week to pay bills and make more bills. Work disappeared as she leaned into the "soul-yearning" of what she wanted to do. Immediately, the vision began to pull her out of the pain and toward a joy-filled destiny.

Dr. Nadia has stated, "My vision for my clients is that they develop the skills and confidence needed to go where THEY want to go. Much of that grows from identifying what you are selling. It may not be the fancy trappings of your business framework; it could be the tangible outcomes your personal energy and expertise help to create." Her process quickly takes you from a one-page business plan into sales conversations for marketing and client acquisition. Dr. Nadia expressed, "quality businesses do not appear in the inert environment of an office, they grow from interaction with the "ideal client(s)," and purposed for hands-on delivery."

If you're like many women whose career is listlessly drifting along the river of "Your Time and Somebody Else's Prosperity," success is dawning. The founder of Doyenne Leadership and the author of "Leading Like a Lady: How to Shatter Your Inner Glass Ceiling," Dr. Nadia Brown, can wake you up into a life fulfilling what you yearn to do, every day. Through her teachings, Dr. Nadia delivers eye-opening and inspired conversation about women and leadership. The impact cultivates the courage to take that leap from a career girl working in a job, to an entrepreneurial professional realizing her career aspirations.

Join dynamic speaker, trainer, and author, Dr. Nadia Brown as Doyenne Leadership hosts their 2nd Annual Take the Leap Conference in Phoenix, Arizona, October 12-14, 2017. You can learn more details at www.TakeTheLeapEvent.com.
