"Judy has been a joy to work with and I
have already realized tangible results in both my personal as
well as my professional life. I go away from my coaching
sessions with a renewed interest and a fresh perspective.
I won’t lie, when I first contemplated hiring a coach I was
more than skeptical. I wanted coaching in my professional
life to revive my sales and my professional life. When I started
working with Judy it was refreshing to have a sounding board for
my thoughts as well as her grounded insight into what was
holding me back in sales. Since then I have destroyed my
sales goals the last two months, which is impressive since I
only started the coaching sessions four months ago.
On the person side of my life, Judy has actually helped me
realize a more fulfilling relationship with my wife. The
relationship coaching was definitely an added benefit.
I am much more confident when I speak with my clients and
prospects. I have moved from simply being a supplier to
being a trusted and valued partner that my clients depend
on. I also find that I now bring a new focus to each and
every day by using a daily starter to center myself. Oh and
did I mention that I doubled my sales goal and am adding
excellent new prospects to my sales pipeline?
I was very much a skeptic and I honestly believe that Judy has
helped me immensely. Anyone can write up a testimonial and put a
name after it. If you like to hear it from the source shoot me
an e-mail garret[at]igsmn.com."

"I was hesitant when I first started
working with Judy. I’d never worked with a coach before. I
didn’t know what to expect, and wasn’t sure if it would be
worth the money. What I can say now is that I would NEVER
have been able to handle my largest volume month EVER without
the processes she helped me put in place. I’m a mortgage
broker and have been for about seven years. I’m really a people
person and all the detail required to be effective at processing
a mortgage used to give me headaches and make me feel like I was
missing something or forgetting something.
By consistently using her Day Starter System, I’m able to stay focused on
getting the strategic things accomplished in my day and not
letting the routine take over. It also has changed the way I
“think” about things. I see now that when I change the way I
view something or someone; it changes the outcome of my day. I
told her she should call herself a business psychologist.
AND she’s help me strategize a process to find and develop
new strategic partners so that I have multiple continuing
referral sources.
I stopped a couple months early because I was getting
overwhelmed with new business (something we were working on)
and SHE kept reminding ME that I had sessions that I had already
paid for left unused and that I should use them. That means a
lot to me.
If anyone questions the value of Judy’s coaching feel free to

"When I first started working with Judy
I had a very successful real estate business. I was
expanding that by taking on more realtors AND I was
starting a new technology business. I was feeling
stretched in all directions. Even though I was great at real
estate I had a lack of confidence in my ability to market this new
business. I was trying to do everything. Even though I had
some processes in place in my real estate business, I didn’t
have enough so that I felt I could delegate effectively. I also had a hard
time mentally focusing on family when I was home. My mind was
spinning and I was continually down on myself for not
accomplishing more.
When I first thought about the investment of coaching with
Judy it seemed like a lot of money and now; Holy Cow, I
can’t imagine not having spent the money. It’s made me 10
times more effective in my work. It all starts with her Day
Starter System. I learned how to focus my energies on what is
going to get me the most bang for the buck as well as prioritize
the things on that list. I reworked my
model for the technology business so that I now have Strategic
Partners. I created new processes so that I could
hand off more in my Real Estate Business. I learned how to
leverage my marketing strengths in both businesses. I
learned techniques to leave work at work and enjoy my family
time AND I learned how to uncover the thinking that gets in
my way of progress.
If anyone questions the value of working with Judy to build
their business please have them call me at 612-616-6916 or email
me at Jeremy[at]textyouback.com."

"When I first started working with Judy I
was new to the Financial Planning Industry. I didn’t know if it
was a good fit for me and to be honest since I was starting something brand new, my confidence was low and I was
unsure about the value I was bringing to our firm. Every day
seemed like a struggle.
Now six months later I am enjoying what I do. I KNOW that
I bring value to the firm. We’re meeting all the new client
goals we set. I’m even enjoying cold calling again,
if you can believe that. I love to golf. You always hear about
people “doing business” on the golf course, but I didn’t really
know how to make that work for me. With Judy’s help I’ve been
able to combine the sport I love (most days) with business. She
kept me focused on the strategic things we needed to get done,
like our web site, referral marketing and aligning with
strategic partners. She also taught me processes to use to
change old subconscious programming.
Once I started working with Judy, I changed my meeting date to
Monday, because I realized that every time we were done talking;
I was fired up to get to work and start on some of those
challenging tasks and I wanted to make that work for me all
week.
If anyone questions the value of working with Judy please have
them email me at jkattke[at]advisornet.com."

"When I met Judy, I was at a loss and felt
very defeated. Even though my passion is bringing attention to
others, I don’t like doing the same for myself. I just prefer
people to come to me. But the economy was wreaking havoc with my
existing clients’ budgets and my referrals had dwindled. I
needed to do something – so I chose to do Judy’s Inner Marketing
program. With her money-back guarantee, I had nothing to lose
and everything to gain.
There, I received exceptional tools to help grow my business.
Judy’s Day-Starter Program helps me make the most of every
moment; after all, time is our most valuable currency. Her
instruction and worksheets helped me clarify which clients I
prefer and how I intended to reach them. Most importantly, she
gave me powerful tools to restore my vision and my confidence.
Of course, by the time I had completed her program, I had
received thousands of dollars in new business.
If your intention is to restore your passion, your vision,
and your bank account, then you need to work with Judy."

"In working with Judy I realized how good
I am at what I do and what great value I bring to my clients.
This translated into more profitable business and confidence
in negotiating with my clients. This new confidence gave me
the strength to stick to my guns when blocking off time to do
my creative work and arrange follow up emails and requests
to be handled in blocks of time that worked for me. I got
more of my work done during the day and spent less time evenings
and weekends. I became much more effective at both accomplishing
my work and communicating with clients.
Judy was fun to work with and I always looked forward to
starting out my day with her advice to encourage me throughout
the week. She was very accessible and stuck with me through some
difficult issues
I have to say that it feels much better to be getting full
pay for my work, to be accomplishing more each day AND at
the same time improving my communication with my clients and
feeling confident of my work and it’s value.

"When I started with Judy I had been
selling in the corporate world for about 10 years. My
performance had dropped off and I was becoming unhappy with my
job. My company offered to invest in me through coaching and I
jumped at the chance. In 6 short months with Judy I achieved
every goal I had set out for myself. I increased my sales
performance by over 44%, I became a positive personality on the
sales team, I bought my dream house and we are pregnant with our
second child. And I’m not working any harder, I’m just having
more fun doing what I do. AND best of all she taught me ways
that I can continue to achieve these results on my own." |

"If you would have asked me a year
ago if I would consider hiring a coach for my business, the
answer would have been a big no. After working with Judy, I have
to say it’s the BEST investment ever. I sleep soundly at night,
my business has grown and me, the non-sales guy, looks forward
to doing sales!! I love my business. What more could I ask for?" |

"We started working with Judy during
a summer when it was tough to be selling Timberwolves tickets.
She helped us stay focused on the positive even when those
around us weren’t. She provided tools that kept our energy
focused on what we wanted to accomplish. Our confidence and
ability to stay on task increased and we hit our sales goals in
a tough selling climate." |

"Just a quick thank
you for all the “positive perception” processes you taught me
when my business seemed at the bottom. Things are really
starting to take off and, while I’m willing to take credit for
the work I did to turn things around, I know the methods you
taught me (and our regular “pep talks” you gave me) kept me
plugging away when everyone was telling me to quit (including
me). Thanks to your efforts, I was able to recognize what was
happening when everyone else was being negative.
Thanks again,
Judy. I will continue to use your teachings to keep me on top of
my game." |

"Prior to taking Judy’s class, I was
my own worst enemy and hardest critic, now I am my best sales
person and while still tough and expect a lot of myself I am
kinder and gentler with me. I am my greatest asset!!! My
business is going crazy and continues daily with repeat clients
ready and more and new referrals. I am putting out such positive
energy, it is all coming back to me in an amazing way. Thank
you, thank you!!" |

"Judy's workshop was a
blast. You definitely learn a lot and come away with tons of
practical tools to use everyday for the rest of your life. If
you're hesitant to try it out, possibly thinking you don't have
the time or the money, don't be! It's worth the investment and
you'll be glad you did!!" |

"Like a lot of people I know, I had demons from childhood haunt my professional life. Therapy had allowed me to succeed, but not to my full potential and with a lot of extra energy and work.
Working with Judy for just a short period of time allowed me to put simple belief systems in place, which created a miracle. I never really thought I could walk completely away from those demons. Judy allowed me to walk away and close the door."

“I was looking for another job
when I started coaching with Judy. She uncovered the reason I
wanted to change jobs was because I was experiencing
difficult work relationships. Through working with Judy I
transformed my relationships. Nine months ago I would never
have believed I could experience these relationships without
interpersonal stress but I am. I gained a sense of power.
By changing my thoughts and my feelings I was able to transform
relationships that had been filled with daily tension.
I was promoted and am now a manager and once again
working with Judy to get clear on my vision for my team and
to allow them to grow and blossom.” |

"While taking Judy’s class I became
more focused, moving into each day with choice and intention
(instead of being reactive). I found myself working smarter not
harder. I got a small community of people who were, amazingly,
struggling and being victorious with the same things I was. Best
of all, I got more peace and joy in each moment." |

“When all is said and done, the greatest gift you give is to be that person that LISTENS nonjudgmentally. Secondarily,
your ability to remind me to focus on my goals and objectives. When I do that I remember that I CAN do this. Then, as all good coaches do, you pat me on the back and send me right back into the game to score the winning touchdown. Through coaching with you
I have come to realize the full power I have in every situation in my life.
I now feel a calm and confidence that I never had before. My sessions with you have been the "rudder" to my boat as well as the wind in my sails.”

"As a tax accountant, I’m trained to anticipate and look
for problems for my clients. In working with Judy, I discovered
that my training in focusing on what might go wrong carried into
my own business life to the extent that I wasn’t taking
advantage of opportunities that came my way. I would second
guess myself and worry about what might go wrong. Working with
Judy I was able to increase my company’s revenue’s by 25%,
improve my relationship with my son and feel at ease with making
decisions that I knew were good for me."

“Never having had a coach before, I wondered what the value would be to me in my practice. In talking to Judy regularly, I was able to get clear not only on what I was out to produce in my business, but I also gained valuable ways to measure my results. I began to discover new ways of looking at my business. We could meet one week and before our next session I was in action to produce the results I wanted. Judy has a unique way of helping me see what's missing and what I can do to accomplish it”.

"Judy, I want to
tell you what a wonderful learning experience I had while
participating in this journey. You have given me a very effective
methodology to help me identify exactly what I want, how I’ll
feel when I get it and a very great process for enhancing my
efforts for attaining all of my goals. I’ve learned to throw off
those disabling encumbrances caused by irrational beliefs, and
negative thought patterns. I’m making great progress building my
new life and new business venture. Your teachings have
definitely led me to enablement - I can see my way to living the
life I really want. I’ll be practicing everyday and growing as a
result. You are there with me and I really love that. Thank you
so very much." |

"For me Judy is a cross between my biggest cheerleader and my biggest challenger. Some days she cheers me on and other days she asks me questions that make me uncomfortable because they remind me that I’ve gotten off track in some area. She often reminds me that I’m doing much better and have accomplished more than I realized.
After a call with Judy I feel re-focused and ready to get back in the game and I almost always have a new idea to implement."

improved my enjoyment level with sales as well as the actual sales outcome. I know there’s still more to come – we really just got started.”
