Get Book Yourself Solid CERTIFIED! And learn to deliver the renowned business building system
|
Beyond the Velvet Rope| Why iPEC? iPEC is the world leader in coaching training and I’m very pleased to form an alliance with iPEC. As you know, integrity, quality, service, and collaboration are high on my list of values, and iPEC matches those values and shares my philosophy for business and business development. This is why I chose iPEC. And it just so happens, they are also the top coach training program in the industry in my opinion, and where you should enroll to get your certification as a coach. Similarly, iPEC sees the distinct advantages of the BYS system for small businesses and professionals and is equally excited to share this knowledge with as many people as possible. |
The Next Book Yourself Solid Certification, in partnership with the Institute for Professional
Excellence in Coaching (iPEC), will be held: November 4-8, 2009 in Shrewsbury, NJ.
If you are in the coaching or consulting business, or are just starting out, I want to extend
an invitation to you to build and grow your business using the renowned and proven Book
Yourself Solid® system…the system I’ve put my heart and soul into.
The BYS Certification program offers you a turnkey solution to building your business
and your name. I’ve developed a 5-day certification process to be held in Shrewsbury,
NJ at iPEC’s headquarters, Wed. November 4 through Sun. November 8th. It will be
five intensive and fun days working face-to-face and heart-to-heart with my top trainers
and me. And after those five short days, you’ll come away with a recognizable brand,
a targeted marketing plan, and proven protocolsand support materials that are instantly
marketable and ready to work for you.
But, as my red velvet rope policy indicates, I don’t work with (and certainly won’t accept) just anyone with a pulse and a checkbook.
Looking for a few good men and women
I’m looking to select only the best candidates; coaches and consultants that I would hire myself, send my clients to, and suggest to my closest friends.
I’m looking for professionals of the highest caliber who will be as dedicated to their clients as I am…professionals who are willing to use my tools and already proven methods from the Book Yourself Solid® system to build their own successful and dynamic businesses. I want these coaches and consultants to use the Book Yourself Solid name and work for their own success.
I’m looking for the best and the brightest that may not have already created content, or are not natural content creators. Those that, if I give them the content and the tools, will succeed.
Look, growing your business in a tight economy is sometimes tough on you and your clients. I realize that I have been sitting on an opportunity that can benefit you. But, I have to make sure I find the right people to pass along referrals to.
Aligning yourself with the Book Yourself Solid® brand (being trained by my team) is a way to have direct access to my top coaches, trainers, and consultants, my learning guides, Internet platform, PowerPoint presentations, tele-seminar outlines, inclusion on my websites, and so much more…
I want to help you and your clients do big things in the world. I dream of you being the influence that has a transformational impact on those you serve. This certification was invented for that.
Behind the red velvet rope
Here’s a sampling of what you can expect. The Book Yourself Solid Certification™ program will:
- Show you how to grow and expand your coaching and consulting business by offering you full use of the Book Yourself Solid system to work with individuals and businesses.
- Give you hours of audio you can use for promotional purposes.
- Provide you with BYS Certified™ banner images, icons, and other graphics to use on your web site.
- Hand you pages and pages of email, website, and printed promotional copy (you’ll get all of my highest converting copywriting).
- Support you with Book Yourself Solid business cards, speaker one-sheets, and letterhead templates.
- Allow you to use (and adapt) my Book Yourself Solid Special Reports and e-mail Mini-Courses to build your list.
- Show you the exact set up for my auto-responder email campaigns—in fact, you can copy them directly.
- And so much more…
Plus, I’ll teach you how to sell books, audios, and additional items to supplement your income. You’ll get to order products at deep wholesale discounts (the same ones I get) and become your clients' best retailer, offering them the items they need to succeed.
Bottom line? I will provide you with the necessary skills and tools to train and coach individuals and businesses on how to get as many clients as their heart desire - the Book Yourself Solid way.

Here's what a few of my BYS Certified Trainers and Coaches have to say:
| "After years of toying with the idea of launching a coaching practice (but not having the time to develop one from scratch), I am now helping freelancers get booked solid through the most effective small business development system around. When I first read Michael’s invitation to apply for BYS Certification, I was convinced there must be a catch. The offer seemed too good to be true. But it took less than a minute (less than 30 seconds, actually!) to remember who was making the offer. Michael doesn’t mess with catches! My application went in, and the rest is history. I am now part of a group of incredible professionals who are committed to thinking big and helping their clients do the same. I have the tools and resources I need to operate my coaching practice successfully. And I have a fabulous mentor in Michael. What could be better?" - Trish Lambert, Book Yourself Solid® Certified Coach

| "For almost 10 years now I have wanted to coach, consult and speak. I hadn't found any information out there or program though or person whom I felt I could align with. I read BYS a year ago when it was given to me by my girlfriend as a response to a business question I had asked. I read the book and APPLIED IT. I saw that it worked. I saw that I could be me and still get results. I thought it would be cool to coach on this because there are so many other bad solutions out there. I felt it was time for people to have something truthful that worked. Then came the invitation so I took it. I am now BYS certified and am off to a fast start! In fact, my first week out as a BYS trainer I went to a networking meeting where each person gave their "30 second commercial". I didn't give one of those. I talked about being a BYS Certified Trainer and before I could even finish 12 people asked me for more information." - Rob Thomas, Book Yourself Solid® Certified Coach

| "I grew my business’ gross revenue by over 600% using the Booked Yourself Solid system. So of course, being a great believer, I said yes to the invitation to apply for the first BYS certification class. While I could have done a detailed analysis of my return on investment, I didn’t because I know Michael Port, trust him and was sure that whatever he was going to provide would be way beyond what I could anticipate. Off to training I went with few expectations and open to learn. Not only was I not disappointed, my expectations were exceeded beyond even my wildest dreams. I left having engaged in an unbelievable and high energy learning experience. More importantly, I learned the tools and strategies to be effective as a Booked Yourself Solid Certified Trainer, and met new colleagues and made friends in my fellow coaches that have already enriched my life immeasurably. (No great surprise, Michael attracted an amazingly talented, bright, creative group of people). As for my “return in investment”, I returned to my office, with a full system that I was confident I could immediately implement successfully. My confidence was not misplaced as I booked enough clients within the first ten days to re-pay my initial investment. Most importantly, much more so than money, this certification provides me with a system to coach and serve more people, more quickly. And more importantly than everything else? I have the privilege of being affiliated with Michael Port - someone whose integrity, honesty, creativity and generosity of ideas, input and caring have had a profound impact on me personally and professionally. So to sum up – a great education, a system which works and can be immediately implemented to increase your ability to serve more clients while growing your own business, and help from one of the foremost marketing experts in the world. That my friends, is a great return on your investment!" - Megan McKenzie, Book Yourself Solid® Certified Coach

But really, it doesn’t stop there...
One of the best things about being one of the first Certified BYS Trainers in the BYS System is that you’ll have a head start on expanding your business using my material.
You see, I have plans to begin a Level II program next year to become Certified Book Yourself Solid Group Leaders teaching live in-person workshops and big group online and tele-seminar programs. I can just see it: Certified Group Leaders speaking and profoundly impacting service professionals, teaching them how to grow their businesses and engage the world on a higher level.
But first, you have to get your BYS Certification™ through this program to advance your business and boost your income to the next level.
An unlimited number of applications will be submitted, but only highly qualified professionals will be selected. That doesn't mean you have to have a huge resume but you do need to be a big thinker. The sooner you apply, the quicker you can be interviewed and accepted.
Register for the last Book Yourself Solid Certified Trainer™ program I’ll be offering in 2009. It'll be held at iPEC headquarters in Shrewsbury, New Jersey, from Wed., November 4th through Sun., November 8th, 2009. There's a nearby hotel where we've arranged discounted rooms. You'll get all the hotel info when you register.
This program includes the 5-day workshop, all training materials and license for doing one-on-one training using the Book Yourself Solid ® system. Oh, and, I'm also going to be hosting a party for you during the event on Friday evening.
The new Price for 2010 Training is $7,500. BUT... right now, the license/training fee is just $4995 when you pay in full.
Upon registration, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to your BYS Certification Application. This must be completed and returned immediately. If, for some reason, you are not accepted into the program, any and all payments you make will be refunded. Your application will be reviewed and responded to within 5 business days of its receipt.
IMPORTANT: WE HAVE EXPANDED THE TRAINING TO 50 SEATS BECAUSE OF PAST DEMAND AND SIZE OF THE EXISTING WAITING LIST… PLEASE DO NOT DELAY IN REGISTERING.
This training is highly coveted. The last 2 trainings have had twice the number of applicants than we could handle and accept.
So the sooner you apply and are accepted, the more likely you are to get a spot. Payments, once received or charged, are final and non-refundable unless we are unable to accept your application. Then, any payments you have made will be refunded. (You will receive your application as soon as your register today.)
Put your growth plans into action today!
My dream is that you'll become a Book Yourself Solid Certified Trainer™ so that you can lift your clients from where they are to where they want to be. We have the power to do that, you know. And through this program, you can personally help your clients build their business while building yours.
I know I sound like a broken record. I know I’ve said it to you a million times. But I can’t help it: I love you for standing in the service of others as you stand in the service of your destiny.
I hope I have the opportunity to serve you, work with you, and get to meet you personally through this exciting new certification.
Get BYS Certified and leave your clients with something transformational. Ready to get started? Let’s do it!

Michael Port
Creator of the Book Yourself Solid® System and... The guy to call when you're tired of thinking small!™
