She’s simply superb, and one of many extraordinarily few individuals on the planet that basically understands community advertising and marketing tradition. I may cease there, to be sincere, however not solely does she perceive community advertising and marketing tradition however she understands web advertising and marketing as nicely at a really, very highly effective stage, and simply a tremendous human being, somebody that I actually admire and I like, love, love having on our present right here, Ms. Diane Hochman.

Diane is superb. I’m so excited to have her. For the folks that don’t know you inform us who Diane Hochman is.

Diane Hochman: Nicely, I’m a really good lady. I began in my home based business in 1999, conventional community advertising and marketing earlier than the web was actually something apart from you’ve bought mail. Over time I’ve form of been in all completely different aspects of enterprise. In fact we’ve labored collectively.

Ray Higdon: Yeah.

Diane Hochman: At present I primarily give attention to serving to individuals with communication out within the market, which is one thing that folks wrestle with.

Ray Higdon: Yeah. For certain. So we are going to discuss methods to join together with your prospects, and Diane is being very humble. She’s had quite a lot of success in web advertising and marketing and online marketing and community advertising and marketing and the whole lot, so simply actually, actually cool. So inform me what do you… As a result of you’ve a really deep data of community advertising and marketing tradition, having realized from Jim Rohn and Larry Thompson and so many different of the greats. What’s one thing about community advertising and marketing tradition you would like extra individuals knew right this moment?

Diane Hochman: Individuals out within the public you would like they knew?

Ray Higdon: Individuals inside community advertising and marketing, like individuals making an attempt to make it work however they’re… What’s one factor they’re actually lacking in terms of the tradition of constructing a community advertising and marketing enterprise?

Diane Hochman: I believe individuals know this, however I don’t assume they know this. It’s about relationships. It’s about depth of relationship. It’s about working in… I’m sitting right here going like this, ? Working in depth and understanding that not every person who joins with you goes to be anchored to that leg. It’s going to be the steadiness and understanding of working these relationships, once more in depth by individuals. Lots of people get individuals upset after they’re doing that. So I believe… I’m form of rambling, as a result of there’s a lot I need to inform individuals, however love individuals. Be affected person. Don’t be imply. Be good individuals. This can be a volunteer military and our job… We will’t encourage individuals. We will encourage them and we will deliver them down the highway, and when individuals belief you they may allow you to into their teams, they may allow you to work with their individuals, and then you definitely’re all serving one another. It’s stunning.

Ray Higdon: Yeah. I believe lots of people, they really feel like their mission because the chief of the crew is I bought to push individuals to be extra motivated and push individuals to their objectives. I believe what you’re saying, that having extra endurance, possibly that’s… Possibly it’s not the precise time to push. Typically it’s the precise time to have endurance.

Diane Hochman: I believe too in the event you’re the chief of the crew then your individual is the chief of their crew and their individual is the chief of their crew, so we bought to be actual cautious about understanding that everyone has a management function with their people and we don’t get to command all people, and but on the similar time we actually need to be there to help, develop, contribute to people, so it’s an attention-grabbing stability. It’s an attention-grabbing stability of understanding it’s not in our time, it’s of their time. So anyone who looks like they’re doing nothing turns round and in a day one thing adjustments… I imply I simply had an enormous change in my life and hastily I’m working and creating in methods I by no means had as a result of my life modified in a second. Now we have to let individuals come to these locations the place they resolve to go.

Ray Higdon: Proper. Superior. Superior. So I at all times cherished the way you talk with individuals on social media, the way you talk with individuals by electronic mail. What are some options on how individuals can higher talk with prospects and simply possibly present up higher on social media to get extra prospects?

Diane Hochman: Nicely, I made up a line a very long time in the past, not all people you meet goes to be your prospect, however all people you meet is aware of a prospect for you. So once we’re assembly individuals, significantly on social, we actually need to be cognizant to find out is that this individual open? In the event that they’re not open proper now would possibly they be open later? Are they exhibiting just a little curiosity however the timing isn’t proper? Or maybe is that this individual not somebody for what you’re doing, however by having an excellent relationship with them they’ll open up the doorways to individuals that you simply haven’t met but who’re the precise individuals? So as an alternative of being aggressive, being simply extra… Being open to their openness and form of simply feeling the place they’re, versus pummeling, pummeling, pummeling.

Ray Higdon: What about individuals like not simply… Somebody is on social media proper now, they’re not having individuals attain out to them. How can they get higher at that? How can they get higher at getting individuals to achieve out to them? How can they present up in a approach to get extra individuals wanting to speak to them?

Diane Hochman: That has lots to do with how we’re posting and the vitality behind our posts. Individuals can attain out to you from a enterprise submit. I believe individuals attain out to you a large number from outcomes posts, and now we have to watch out to not make any varieties of claims, et cetera, however leads to story kind may be very efficient. What I imply is that if we submit earlier than and after footage each single day persons are going to get bored with that. They’re not going to be responsive. But when we inform the story of Mary, who had little youngsters and she or he was exhausted and she or he was having a

arduous time maintaining with them after which she discovered your merchandise and so they actually lit her up and she or he was in a position to exit and run monitor with them, or no matter it might be, individuals relate to tales, so talking extra and posting extra in tales. By the way in which, don’t now we have on Instagram or Fb, there’s no mistake that it’s referred to as tales. I do know the whole lot… Ray, I see you twice a yr possibly for the final 4 million years. I see you twice a yr, or 3 times a yr. I simply bought to see Jessica. However I do know what your youngsters are as much as. I do know your son’s little band and I do know what Sabrina is doing, and I do know that Graham simply had a birthday, and I do know what occurred at Jessica’s birthday celebration, as a result of by that we’re telling tales, and it attracts individuals nearer to us and it builds belief. So then once we flip round and we point out that now we have a webinar or now we have a sale on our merchandise persons are rather more snug and really feel safer reaching out to you, so inform tales.

Ray Higdon: What if somebody is on right here and so they don’t have any outcomes for themselves and so they’re not realizing what ought to I be posting? What sort of tales? The place do I discover them? Do I create them? What does that appear like?

Diane Hochman: Nicely, we will use tales from individuals in our up strains or facet strains. For those who’re plugged into your organization there’s tons of tales to be advised. However I additionally assume we are likely to assume we don’t have a narrative possibly as a result of we haven’t made a gazillion {dollars} but, or as a result of we haven’t misplaced 100 kilos but, or we haven’t cured 72 completely different ailments. All people has a narrative. If you strive a product, what’s the very first thing you observed? You may at all times inform the story about the very first thing you observed, or your first expertise when one thing bought delivered, or you may inform a narrative about being skeptical however making an attempt one thing. So all of us have a narrative to tell-

Ray Higdon: Why you began. Like, hey, I’m beginning this journey as a result of I need to change this.

Diane Hochman: Sure. And that story, in and of itself, will get individuals cheering you on and watching to see what you’re as much as. I believe it involves lots, Ray, that persons are simply afraid. I do know possibly we attempt to make imagine that that doesn’t exist, but it surely exists and persons are afraid to even submit an image. What I need to say to all people is while you’re speaking and also you’re sharing you’re doubtlessly serving to somebody and altering their life, and so they’re not too fearful about… Like I bought on and I actually… Okay, I’ll admit it. I bought on and I had these glasses on and so they form of conflict with my shirt and I modified to this. Then we bought on and I went there’s papers on prime of my printer, and I used to be fearful.

However what if we are saying one thing right this moment that tilts anyone’s world? What if that one image that you simply share of what it was like earlier than, the image that your embarrassed of, tilts anyone’s world? What in the event you say one thing that makes anyone know they’re like me? So all of us have a narrative, the place we’re coming from, the place we’re going. Typically we don’t share components of… I’ve identified you for a very long time. You didn’t share all of the components of your story till pretty just lately since you weren’t able to, and that’s okay, or it wasn’t the precise place, the precise timing. However all people has one thing to share, and if it’s not your story there’s anyone else… I inform your story on a regular basis. I inform your story as a result of I work with a bunch of individuals, a spot that you simply had been concerned with, and I inform the story. I advised your story once we labored collectively years in the past. It’s not my story. Individuals inform my story, so there’s plenty of tales to inform.

Ray Higdon: Yeah. I like… My buddy, Hank, mentioned this, which I don’t know in the event you’ve spent any time with Hank, however he’s a hoot.

Diane Hochman: No. I didn’t get an opportunity to and I heard-

Ray Higdon: You’d love him for certain.

Diane Hochman: … superb issues.

Ray Higdon: Yeah. However he mentioned at our occasion a pair weeks in the past… He mentioned, “Discuss to the individual you was once.”

Diane Hochman: Oh, I like that.

Ray Higdon: I simply thought that was so highly effective, as a result of for me there’s quite a lot of was once. I used to deal with my self-worth points. I’d simply hustle my face off and simply work all of the rattling time and never let anyone in however simply work, work, work, work, work. Then there was the me that calmed down some, realized some issues, bought extra grounded, however I nonetheless wouldn’t let individuals in due to one thing that occurred in my childhood the place I felt betrayed and I didn’t on the unconscious stage need to be betrayed once more. So there’s like all these completely different… For those who’re rising there’s all these completely different variations of you. So desirous about that over-hustler that’s by no means happy, they’ve tripled the comp plan and quadrupled their earnings and bought all of the whatevers, however they’re nonetheless not glad. They’re nonetheless hustling for extra.

Serving to that individual, or serving to the person who doesn’t know that they’re retaining everybody at bay to guard themselves from previous betrayal, however while you’re speaking about tales it may be that straightforward. It may be so simple as… I used to be simply on a extra generic podcast of speaking to folks that don’t like their jobs and simply need to depart, so like that story of why you begin might be very highly effective. I do know you’ve a strong story. Why did you begin community advertising and marketing?

Diane Hochman: I had two little women and I had left my job, however I forgot they weren’t paying me anymore so I saved charging issues, bought a home and purchased all of the furnishings and the whole lot else, after which hastily it was form of like snap, we had been to date in debt, and I actually didn’t need to return to work. It additionally didn’t make sense to me, as a result of by the point I paid childcare for 2 youngsters and purchased a go well with and commuted I actually wasn’t wasn’t going to make that a lot… And taxes, et cetera. I wasn’t going to make that a lot. So once I bought launched to community advertising and marketing, which was accidentally, as a result of I didn’t even know what community advertising and marketing was, I went this might work as a result of I solely want this a lot to have the ability to keep residence. By no means did I ever think about all of the issues which have occurred would ever occur. It was throughout actually 500 bucks. I wanted to pay my debt down and get a pizza or take the children to a film infrequently. That was all I used to be on the lookout for.

Ray Higdon: Isn’t it attention-grabbing, I believe there’s so many, so many individuals that begin community advertising and marketing due to that form of factor, I need to make mother care, not day care, or I need to make 300 to 500 bucks. However typically individuals come into community advertising and marketing and so they’re like I must get an enormous gun, so that they… Make 10,000 a month, so that they communicate means up right here, which fewer individuals even imagine they’ll try this. Simply to your level you’re saying everybody has a narrative, why you began I believe is such a strong one, as a result of there’s lots of people in that scenario.

Diane Hochman: Tales too may be the story of we went to the apple orchard. It might be the story of… If you see that, and also you see household, and also you see good individuals

Ray Higdon: And it’s a Tuesday.

Diane Hochman: Proper. Nicely, yeah, as a result of that might be simply life-style. However even when it had been a Saturday, as a result of we’re nonetheless working, it might be that you simply see me with my youngsters otherwise you see me doing one thing enjoyable that you simply get pleasure from, after which once I discuss my alternative it feels a lot safer, as a result of there usually are not that many psycho killer mommies of two little youngsters. There’s a pair on the market, however what I imply?

If you see anyone taking good care of their aged dad or mum otherwise you see anyone doing one thing that they love, like I do know you guys went fishing over the weekend… Once more, the web works, guys. I used to be cracking jokes with a buddy as a result of we at all times discuss we’re going grouper fishing, after which anyone says they caught a grouper. After I see you with the boys hanging out and having enjoyable and going fishing you appear to be a standard man to me, proper? It’s much less intimidating. Individuals get scared on this business, and the much less scary you might be and the extra you let me see your doggies, all that stuff, it really works.

Ray Higdon: Your daughter choose on you nonstop.

Diane Hochman: I checked out her outfits and sneakers within the closet. It’s simply fabulous. I need to go in that closet. What dimension sneakers does Jessica put on?

Ray Higdon: My virtually six-year-old goes into Jess’ closet the opposite evening and she or he comes out with scarf, glasses, heels, purse, and Jess is like, “Sabrina, it’s time for mattress,” and she or he goes, “I’m not Sabrina. I’m Sparkle.” So apparently Sparkle has a later bedtime. However anyway, we bought an awesome query from Sharon and I’ll throw this to you. “Good afternoon. What in the event you fell off and also you’re getting again on monitor to retell your story?”

Diane Hochman: Okay. I’m going to inform a narrative to reply that query if it’s okay with you, Ray?

Ray Higdon: Certain. Please.

Diane Hochman: A pair weeks in the past I used to be hanging out, having enjoyable, went to an occasion, having a good time, after which hastily I begin feeling form of crummy and I’m form of like what’s up with this? Then I discover out individuals had COVID, so I took a take a look at and the take a look at mentioned constructive. I’m like, “Okay. I’ll isolate. I’m going residence.” Then hastily I couldn’t breathe, okay? Procrastinated and procrastinated, after which lastly went, “I in all probability ought to go to a hospital.” So I went to the hospital and it seems I used to be very, very sick, like they ran me down the corridor. It was very dramatic, like on TV, like… Besides it’s me. And I’m like, “Wait a minute. This isn’t Grey’s Anatomy or one thing.” Throughout that point interval quite a lot of stuff modified for me. I noticed issues very otherwise. One thing occurs to you when you may’t breathe. It adjustments your perspective on what’s actually essential. So, Sharon, whereas I didn’t fall off per se, though I’ve many instances in my profession… I went by a divorce. I disappeared for 2 years, two or three years. This… One way or the other one thing spiritually modified in me. All you do is you choose up your cellphone and also you begin from the place you might be, and from my hospital mattress, as a result of I used to be lonely, I used to be within the ICU, I couldn’t speak to anyone. They couldn’t even are available in. They needed to be like triple gowned and double masked, and it was actually creepy. It was actually creepy. Simply avoid it.

After I may lastly speak I picked up the cellphone and I did a Fb Reside, and I simply advised my story. I didn’t inform my story for pity or… As a result of quite a lot of us, now we have monetary issues or now we have private issues and we cease with our enterprise. However at any given second you may choose up your cellphone and make a submit. You may choose up your cellphone and create a narrative, and you may as well attain out to anyone and see in the event that they’re open. You may prospect, even when one thing tough has occurred, as a result of once we prospect it’s not about us. Whether or not we’re prospecting personally, whether or not we’re prospecting on-line, whether or not we’re doing it by way of… You recognize, I take advantage of electronic mail lots and various things. If you attain out and assist somebody is when issues get higher. So in the event you’ve fallen down the perfect factor you may do is assist another person. You’ll really feel the elevate immediately. It’s going to change you in a second.

Ray Higdon: Yeah. I find it irresistible. I agree 100%, and I believe some overthink this half and assume that everybody has been ready and like she hasn’t been very constant. They’re busy with their very own stuff.

Diane Hochman: Oh, yeah.

Ray Higdon: I do know I reached out to you, and I’m certain you had lots of people, however lots of people had been too busy with their very own stuff to note you had fallen off.

Diane Hochman: Yeah.

Ray Higdon: There was actually some folks that observed and reached out to you, however I believe quite a lot of instances we expect everyone seems to be seeing our each transfer and paying shut consideration to it and so they’re like, “Oh, Ray didn’t submit for 2 days.” Losers. That’s

Diane Hochman: It’s not like that.

Ray Higdon: No.

Diane Hochman: Even with individuals on Ray’s scale. I do know there’s individuals on Ray’s Each day, and also you referred to as it Each day I’m certain to maintain tremendous accountable, however… and other people could be, “Oh, he’s missed his Each day,” however now because the group grows you’ve so many various audio system and personalities and various things, so the group is flourishing.

I noticed the brand new stuff you guys had been doing. It’s simply completely unbelievable, what’s occurring, simply superb the improvements that you simply’re popping out with now to assist individuals. However all of us fall off, all of us do, and that’s okay. The query is do you get again up? Oh, look, Ms. Fletcher is right here.

Ray Higdon: Yeah. That’s the large deal. I like David Oglesby. He mentioned, “You’re advertising and marketing to a marching parade, not a standing military.” So persons are… They’re busy, man, chasing youngsters, doing laundry, turning the channel. They’re doing their factor. Don’t overthink that. Simply get began from the place you might be. I like that. It’s such an awesome

Diane Hochman: One different factor, Ray. [inaudible]. Jim Rohn at all times mentioned there’s one man and he likes to heckle individuals or give them a tough time, however there’s solely certainly one of him and he simply strikes round lots, okay?

Ray Higdon: Yeah.

Diane Hochman: So when anyone says, “The place have you ever been,” or anyone says, “Oh, it appears such as you gained a couple of kilos,” or anyone says to you, “For those who took higher care of your self you wouldn’t have gotten the COVID,” I bought that, I did get that.

Ray Higdon: I’m certain. I’m certain.

Diane Hochman: You recognize what? That’s okay. They’re simply shifting round. Possibly even telling the story of… I wouldn’t name consideration to an issue, however give it just a little time. Telling the story of what was up makes different individuals go, “I can stand up too.”

Ray Higdon: Yeah.

Diane Hochman: It’s simply promoting into individuals.

Ray Higdon: For certain. We noticed… At our occasion there have been a minimum of two that I noticed the place watching from hospital beds, and such as you do what you may. You don’t beat your self up for what you didn’t do, as a result of it doesn’t assist. It doesn’t assist something. So very cool, very cool.

Diane Hochman: Very.

Ray Higdon: Oh, and Paula says, “Love your glasses.” There you go. You picked the precise ones. Very good. So what’s one final tip for somebody on right here who they’ve been at this for some time, they’re not getting outcomes, possibly they’re not even certain why? What’s one bit of recommendation you may assist them with? You’ve been serving to individuals for a very long time.

Diane Hochman: I mentioned it just a little earlier, however I’ll say it once more as a result of I believe it’s the most important tip. It’s not in our time, it’s of their time. So resolve that you simply’re going to create a database, whether or not you’re going to make use of an app in your cellphone, a buyer relationship supervisor. I began the place I had a 5 by eight card file field, the place all people I met I took notes on and I put it within the field. What you need to do is change into actually good at assembly individuals the place they’re and constructing that relationship and persevering with to observe up, versus feeling like you might want to get them proper now. As you fill that pipeline over time you’re simply naturally signing individuals on a regular basis, as a result of the individuals have a relationship with you and possibly there’s a purpose to re-contact them, there’s a brand new product, there’s a brand new taste, there’s a gathering, there’s a particular speaker, no matter it might be. The one factor I do know after 22 years on this recreation, individuals come and go. Individuals come and go. Individuals come and go, and simply be current in order that when it’s their time you might want to be on the prime of their head, which is why you might want to frequently being in contact with them, or being visible on social, or sending playing cards, or no matter it’s that you simply need to do to be seen to that individual in order that they consider you for the time being that they’re able to make a change, product smart or alternative smart. That’s actually it. I believe one of many largest errors individuals make is they simply… It’s like one contact and that’s it.

Ray Higdon: Proper. Yeah. No, I like that. It’s simply so true. There’s so many actually good folks that had I not adopted up with them it by no means would have occurred, so simply absolute brilliance for certain. And that will work for something, realtors, mortgage brokers, CPAs, anyone, so actually, actually cool. Make certain in the event you’re not already, though I’m constructive lots of you might be… Ensure you observe Diane on social media. She’s superb. I like her stuff. Take note of how she communicates on social media, as a result of I believe she’s undoubtedly among the best at that, talking the language that’s relatable, that folks join with, and I simply at all times love having her. So, Diane, thanks a lot. You’re superb. Thanks to your time.

Diane Hochman: Thanks a lot, Ray.
