Expert coaching to help you sell more private tours

6-Week Coaching Program
Live video lessons every week, marketing templates, and a course partner to check-in with every week. Participants also receive an in-depth, one-on-one meeting with Joe to review the new private tour proposal you’re going to create during the program.
Coaching starts Wednesday, November 6th for $599.
Reserve Your SpotWhile you offer private tours, you may not have a professional sales process in place
You know that small changes could help you attract more private tours, but you still have public tours to worry about. Maybe you’re sending leads an email with details, or a quick PDF you put together. This course will guide you through a new process that helps you sell more private tours and increase your prices.
So, let's work together!
We'll meet on video chat at 11am CST every Wednesday. Each class is a combination of lessons and answering your questions. All sessions will be recorded and available online if you are unable to attend.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much can we get done in 6 weeks?
A lot! One of the great things about 6-week cycles is the ability to move at a pace that works with your availability.
Are you an expert in all things sales and marketing?
I am not. BUT! If there is something I don't know, I will use my resources to find out.
How much time is needed?
Approximately 3hrs per week. There will also be some homework that could take a couple hours some weeks.
What if I fall behind?
Even once we complete the group coaching, you'll still have access to all recordings and templates to work through when you have time.
Is this program for all stages of business owners?
It is. The items we'll be covering are core to all levels as it focuses on foundational sales and marketing principles.
Don't wait for "next time"
These courses are only being offered one cycle at a time. There is no guarantee that future coaching will be offered with the same focus on Private Tours at the current price.
