“GO AHEAD. Be a smart ask.”

-- Annette Saldaña

This isn’t some recycled, new-agey nonsense. It’s science.

The female brain has a more active anterior cingulate cortex than the male brain. This is the part of the brain we can thank for helping us shift attention and recognizing errors. However, when it is overactive, women easily become paralyzed in negative thoughts or behaviors, seeing only what is wrong rather than what is right.

Harnessing the unique power of your mind to build you up rather than tear you down is a game-changer. Pair that with qualities that have long been labeled as traditionally “female” and coincidentally proven to make up the most effective type of leader?

You’re left with a powerhouse: you. And the things you may have once believed to be weaknesses could actually be reclaimed as your greatest strengths.

Ladies. Leaders. You’re one and the same. 

For the love of possibility, get the best out of life. 

No nonsense.

You stand ready to open the door to humming, thrumming, unstoppable joy. May I present the key?

Sacrifice the notion that successful people 

have something you don’t. 

It’s the only sacrifice you’ll make—and good riddance!

The returns you’ll get when you make this investment in yourself:

Whether you’re a CEO, emerging leader or an entrepreneur learning to think like one, you’ll enjoy the following:

Redeem your new skills for cash prizes. Learn how to ask for what you want without flinching, lowering your fees as a knee-jerk response, or worse—shooting yourself in the foot and not asking at all because talking about money makes you queasy. Attract bigger clients (and more of them) simply by knowing how to ask for them. In fact, why not double your fees? Studies show that women who negotiate earn $1 million more before retirement than women who don’t. What if you were one of them—a confident woman who makes irresistible requests?

1.     Partnerships with A-list people and introductions to new markets. Successful women don’t have “competitors,” and they don’t promote alone. Market yourself the right way and you won’t have to convince anyone to hire you for the rest of your life—they’ll line up. 

2.     Better performance from your team. Know how to entice others to just naturally WANT to do your bidding—leveraging their own core motivations and desires. In other words, unlock your team’s best performance ever even if your team consists of sleepy, sloppy teenagers—and genuinely adore them all the while.

3.     Confidence, freedom, power. Step out and speak up—even when there are no ready answers. Sometimes you just know. You don’t need evidence or proof or time to figure it all out. 

4.     A dedicated partner in wish fulfillment. Here’s what I’m better at than anyone else in the world: helping you change the story in your head, so you can rapidly produce results in the world. Not only can I show you how that uninvited posse in your head sets the limits, I can show you how to release those limits when you set the right conversation in motion. 

5.     Respect. Get ready to stop putting up with stuff from people you know are capable of so much more. Be boss without the bossy in the most loving, strong, authentic way possible. This feels so good, which makes it sustainable for you + all.

A SUCCESS STORY

When I heard about Annette’s program, the The Art & Science of Irresistible Request I was feeling pretty hopeless and in a very stagnant place in my life and in my career. I am single mom and am a fashion director for a women’s national magazine and have been for 14 years. I work in an industry that is suffering greatly and have watched my income and my work load decrease substantially over the last three years. I reached a point where I was struggling to afford my life and knew I needed to make some dramatic changes.

When I spoke to Annette and learned about her program it really resonated with me and gave me sense of hope again. I knew I needed to generate more income and knew that I needed to work outside of my job on freelance projects. I lacked the confidence and the tools to reach out to people that could help me, guide me and hire me. I knew what I needed to do however I didn’t have the discipline, guidance or fire to do it. The program challenged me in such a way that made me really focus on what I needed to do, how to ask for it and really held me accountable for all of it.

In the 4 months following the program I have been able to generate double my monthly salary each month, have worked with new clients and have been able to pick up a bi-monthly project on a new magazine.

Annette really had the knowledge and the know-how to challenge and push me outside my comfort zone in a very positive way and not allow me to fall back into my old habits. She constantly encouraged and excited me to stay focused and think outside of the box and ask for what I wanted.

If you’re worried about spending the money on yourself as most women are, look at it as an investment in yourself and your life! If you don’t invest in yourself why is anyone else going to? Annette’s program really changed my mindset, my confidence and more than anything has changed my life in such a positive way in regards to my career, my relationships and my happiness!

Q+A

What’s your experience?

At age of 18, I was helping a non-profit called the Hunger Project. In my quest to help reduce world hunger, I realized that my ability to ask for what I wanted was the single biggest success factor in my relationships and earnings, and in building effective organizations. Since then, I have spent more than 20 years helping entrepreneurs and executive leaders of large companies. I started my first company 11 years ago, energizing clients like American Express and Ogilvy & Mather to shift their mindsets and performance with conscious communication.

It’s important to me that you know: a defining part of my experience has been failure. I was not born successful. I’ve been kicked out of high school, dropped out of college, failed classes and relationships. I still get scared. But it is this—this unifying aspect of being human—that ultimately makes me and my skills as valuable as they are. It is the context behind the value I have to offer that triples its worth. It is knowing that I can start the day uncertain but end it more certain than anything that makes my methods so easily applicable to others like me.

What results have you created for others?

I’ll let my clients speak for themselves... have you checked out the testimonials page?

Where have you worked?

Everywhere I’ve worked has always been geared towards helping people recognize and tap into their potential. Before founding my first company in 2005, I gained varied experience. I volunteered with The Hunger Project. I worked as Senior Program Director at The Leadership Development Institute, where I specialized in program enrollment and executive coaching for top management of companies such as Alcon Labs, Chevron, and IBM. I also moved some mountains at a global training & development company, where I led training programs specializing in leadership, communication, project management, public speaking to over 40,000 people.

What can you do that I can’t do on my own, get in a book, from a girlfriend or online?

You may be able to read a book, but can a book read you? No.

You may have access to resources online, but do those apps have access to your most personal dreams? Your deepest fears? No.

In fact, as self-aware as you might be, chances are you don’t even have full access to those things—we cannot see our own blocks, because that’s what makes them effective blocks!

And sure, your friend may know you better than anyone… but her expertise stops there. She’s your friend, not a coach who incites breakthroughs for a living. That’s me. I give you the insight of a best friend paired with the knowledge of a New York Times bestseller—all in one—and that is the breakthrough tool you need to deliver results that exceed your (and everyone’s) expectations.

How can you help me get the results I want?

Trick question. I need to know the results you want before I answer that. Anyone who could provide a specific answer to that question is not offering you the degree of individual attention my clients are looking for. But for the sake of this Q&A, I will say: by using a tailored-to-you version of the proven method I’ve used to help all kinds of women. And my method begins with asking: How do you see the world? What matters most to you? How do you respond to constructive criticism when venturing out of your comfort zone? Any coach that claims to deliver results without addressing these questions, will not deliver the results you’re looking for. In my 20+ years of doing this, I’ve found that people either don't trust me or they don't trust themselves. Which would it be for you? It’s an important question to answer before taking this journey. Want to discuss this personally with me? Email me at annette@annettesaldana.com and we’ll take it from there.

How are you different from other coaches?

Other programs give you tons of information. I specialize in removing information. What you know is likely getting in your way. It may even be what has you stuck! When Amex brought me in, it wasn't because they didn't have enough trainers—they spend millions on their internal training department alone! They brought me in because I freed people up to perform at work—mostly by removing what they already knew about their colleagues and their customers. I get to the source of a problem through skillful examination of context in addition to content.

My listening skills plus my wildly active imagination make me able to recognize and release your deeply rooted fears and disrupt your views (of yourselves, your problems, how doable your goals are) by reframing things in a way no one ever has before. This immediately puts into motion change in your conversations, your behaviors, and your outcomes.

You’re a smart enough cookie to know that cookie cutter programs cannot possibly deliver the personal breakthroughs they promise. A personal breakthrough requires personal attention to the unique person you are. Let’s take a look at whether IR is a fit for you and I promise to ask you some pivotal questions (rather than just feed you ready-made answers).

My commitment to you is more than a guarantee of your success, it’s a promise to do so by stepping into your world and experiencing it at your side. You invest your hard-earned money, and I invest my heart.
