In a recent episode of the User Spotlights, Laura had an inspiring conversation with Holly and Chad Ockstadt, a dynamic duo of transformational coaching. Together, they shared their journey of overcoming obstacles, regaining their memory, and building a successful coaching business that aligns with their true selves. 

Chad and Holly Ockstadt, both started their online businesses in 2013. Holly, who began her business from a hospital bed, discovered the power of transformation and personal growth through ClickFunnels.

As they joined forces, they initially created an agency but soon realized the need to narrow their focus. They wanted to work with impact-driven coaches who were passionate about making a difference in the lives of others.

Health battles and a brighter future

Holly faced health battles and memory loss, which required her to undergo extensive healing and trauma work. With the support of functional neurologists and a strong mindset, she regained her memories and used her experience to develop a powerful coaching model. Chad also faced his challenges, including caring for Holly during her seizures. Despite these obstacles, they remained resilient and committed to their vision.

Chad and Holly Ockstadt emphasize the importance of mindset and transformation in their coaching. They believe that every entrepreneur needs to address their mindset and energy to create sustainable success. By clearing limiting beliefs, healing traumas, and aligning with their true selves, entrepreneurs can overcome resistance and create businesses that are fulfilling and impactful.

Their coaching services are specifically designed for coaches who are called to make a deep impact on the world. Whether they are leadership coaches, transformational coaches, life coaches, health coaches, or mindset coaches, Holly and Chad help them create client attraction processes, package their programs, and overcome their limitations.

They focus on tangible results and helping coaches turn their transformational gifts into something that people truly need.

One of the most effective strategies they use is virtual events. They create excitement and engagement by running people to an event and offering the opportunity to book a call and become a client even before the event starts. This approach allows them to sign clients before the event even happens and brings a fun and immersive experience to their coaching business.

Best Piece of Advice for Entrepreneurs from Chad and Holly Ockstadt

Holly and Chad’s biggest piece of advice for fellow entrepreneurs is to get clear on the people they want to serve and the specific results they can provide. They emphasize the importance of resilience, regulating the nervous system, and having a strong mindset to navigate the ups and downs of entrepreneurship.

By focusing on the perfect triangle of impact, enjoyment, and financial viability, entrepreneurs can build businesses that align with their purpose and bring fulfillment. Their journey is a testament to the power of transformation, resilience, and aligning with one’s true purpose.

Paul and Shreya shared valuable insights and advice for aspiring entrepreneurs. In this blog post, we’ll delve into their journey, discuss the power of PLR Funnels, and explore their tips for building a successful online business.

Getting Started in Business Together

Paul Counts and Shreya Banerjee joined forces in 2018 after realizing the need for structure and a corporate background in their respective businesses. Paul had been in the industry since 1998, while Shreya, a mechanical engineer by trade, transitioned to online marketing after the birth of her son.

Their partnership brought a unique blend of experience and expertise, enabling them to expand their training courses and even introduce their Marketing Counts curriculum to high schools and colleges across the country.

So, Paul and Shreya’s partnership with ClickFunnels and Russell Brunson came about through their expertise in PLR and their commitment to providing value in the market. Russell had been aware of PLR for years and recognized Paul’s expertise in the field.

PLR Funnels with Russell

PLR Funnels, which stands for Private Label Rights Funnels, have been around since 2004. Paul, being one of the pioneers in this space, recognized the potential of PLR and its ability to fast-track business growth. This allows entrepreneurs to purchase a license to use pre-made content, including products, lead magnets, email sequences, and more.

This eliminates the need to create everything from scratch, making it an ideal solution for those who want to start an online business but don’t have their products to sell.

Together, they brainstormed the idea of PLR Funnels, which offers entrepreneurs a complete business package with 50 ready-to-use funnels, products, and marketing materials. The partnership with ClickFunnels has allowed them to reach a wider audience and provide immense value to aspiring entrepreneurs.

Best piece of advice from Paul Counts and Shreya Banerjee

Paul Counts and Shreya Banerjee shared valuable advice for those looking to start an online business. They emphasized the importance of getting started and not getting caught up in perfectionism. Waiting for everything to be perfect or automated before launching can hinder progress. Instead, focus on providing value, being authentic, and continuously testing and tweaking your funnels.

They also encouraged entrepreneurs to prioritize building their audience through funnels rather than relying solely on social media platforms.

Welcome Funnel Hackers! In this episode of User Spotlights, we introduce Tahlia Ranieri, a resilient entrepreneur who emerged from Melbourne, Australia, to navigate a remarkable journey of triumph over adversity.

Tahlia’s career initially led her to a decade of service in the Victorian government’s corrections department.

Tahlia’s life took an extraordinary turn when she decided to attend Funnel Hacking Live, despite her physical challenges. With only a few days’ notice, she made a life-altering decision to travel halfway across the world, defying the odds.

Her heart is dedicated to a passion project—a sensory toy subscription for children.

And having ClickFunnels there” […]  I’m terrified of cameras, and I don’t ever go on camera but after FHL, I started recording videos and talking. One of my biggest fears is being on camera and stuff like that. But if I didn’t get over those fears, I wouldn’t have had the confidence to sit here and speak to you and be able to share my story”.

Funnel Hackers, welcome back! In this episode of User Spotlight, our guest is Bridget James Ling. Bridget, a courageous entrepreneur, embarked on a transformative adventure in 2020 when she left her $50,000-a-year job in New York to travel the world. What’s even more astonishing is how she turned this bold move into a million-dollar enterprise within a mere two years. Her story serves as a shining example of the power of action and the mindset of building a movement.

Bridget’s story begins in the corporate landscape of New York, where her dream job ultimately fell short of expectations. Realizing the need to be her own boss, she set out on the path to entrepreneurship. In 2020, while traveling the globe, she stumbled upon ClickFunnels, leading her to dive deep into the intricacies of high-ticket funnels. Her dedication was such that she often found herself staying up until the early hours of the morning in Panama to delve into her studies.

Her journey took a significant turn during her first attendance at Funnel Hacking Live in 2021. It was here that she set her sights on the grand stage, much like Tony Robbins. In 2022, her return to Funnel Hacking Live was marked by unwavering commitment, and her efforts paid off as she was honored with the prestigious Two Comma Club award. Bridget’s business today centers on empowering women to market their services on Instagram and master organic marketing techniques. Her coaching expertise aids online service providers in posting, selling, and incorporating recurring offers to scale their businesses to seven figures.

In her business, Bridget uses ClickFunnels in two key ways. First, high-ticket funnels direct potential clients toward Direct Message (DM) conversations instead of traditional sales calls. Second, membership funnels serve as the entry point, offering a $97-a-month subscription service that opens the door to her suite of products, including a high-ticket mastermind.

Bridget emphasizes two pivotal principles for aspiring entrepreneurs: taking massive action and maintaining faith in oneself and one’s purpose. She encourages embracing hard work and commitment without any accompanying sense of shame. Faith in one’s mission, even when confronted with doubts and obstacles, is the driving force that propels individuals forward.
