"I have the world's best job. I get paid to
hang out in my imagination all day."
- author Stephen King
I agree with Stephen King.
I am fortunate to be in a position to use my imagination to catapult
my clients' success by helping them crystallize commercially
viable ideas and offerings that help them stand out from their
crowd.
Louis Nizer said, "No speech is good without an original thought."
In today's competitive marketplace, no speaker/author/consultant is
"good" unless we have original titles, topics, and approaches. If we're
saying the same thing as everyone else, why should meeting planners hire
us, why should publishers give us a contract, why should busy people
waste their precious time reading our blogs, websites, article, why
should prospective clients choose to work with us?
You may be thinking, I agree with this, but HOW do I come up with
original approaches? How do I get my book out of my head and into the
world? How do I produce presentations and products that are
one-of-a-kind instead of one-of-many? How do I position my business so
it breaks out instead of blends in? How can I establish POP! of Mind
Awareness with my target audience?
That's where I come in. I'm known for my ability to interview you and
crystallize your unique experience and expertise into an compelling,
commercially viable message that has the potential and power to drive
your entrepreneurial career for years to come.
For whatever reason, (and believe me, I'm grateful for it), my mind has
an uncanny ability to create original approaches that help you STAND OUT
and win buy-in for what you have to say and sell. I have systemized
this into The POP! Process (patent pending) -- and have used it
successfully with hundreds of clients and thousands of audience members
in the past decade.
You're probably wondering what exactly I do and how I can help you
accomplish your goals. That varies with each client. My first question
to you is, “What can we focus on to make the most of our time
together?” Once I know your priorities, we focus on best to achieve
them.
The following questions are just a few of the ways I’ve helped previous
clients figure out what it is they have to offer that’s special -- and
how they could make a “good living” (literally and figuratively)
getting paid to do work they love with people they respect.
·
What’s the status of your project or where are you in your career?
·
Where do you want to be with your project or career this time next year?
·
What are your strategic goals? Do you want to drive more keynotes?
Finish your book? Attract media attention? Introduce a product?
Develop a full-time coaching career?
·
Are you not sure of the commercial viability of your idea or project and
want to evaluate its potential before you invest a lot of time,
effort, and money?
·
Do you want to write a book, start a speaking/coaching business, develop
a business name and slogan, become an infopreneur, and just aren't sure
where or how to start?
·
Do you need help figuring out exactly what you, your creation or
company has to offer that's different from what’s already available so
you break out instead of blend in?
·
Do you want to corner a niche by creating a niche?
·
Are you looking for a memorable slogan for your company, cause or
campaign?
·
Are you looking to build a brand "empire" that produces multiple
revenue streams?
·
Do you want professional guidance from a best-selling author on how to
write, edit, and finish a QUALITY proposal/ manuscript that gets the
attention of New York publishers?
·
Do you want insightful coaching from an award-winning speaker (2003-04
Outstanding Capital Speaker) on how to create and deliver a rollicking,
real-life presentation that has audiences on the edge of their seats and
that motivates meeting planners to call you?
·
Are you juggling several different topics or business directions and
want to get clarity on which has the most potential payoff so you
finally focus on the one with Highest ROI?
·
Do you want to crystallize attention-grabbing titles, taglines, and
Jerry Maguire Intros that make your projects, products, proposals and
presentations POP!?
I have had the pleasure of helping
clients do all of the above.
How Do We
Work Together?
We can work "virtually" - or in person. About two-thirds of my clients
work with me over the phone. The other third either come to Reston, VA (ten minutes from Washington DC's Dulles
Airport) or meet with me one-on-one when I'm in their area for a
speaking engagement.
My consulting is available in time packages. You have the flexibility to
schedule how often and how long we meet according to the urgency of your
project. Some clients are working on their project or starting a new
career while juggling other responsibilities (such as raising a family
and/or working another full-time job).
This system gives you the freedom to book a one-hour phone appointment
to focus on a certain priority, then go back and incorporate or produce
what we’ve discussed, and then schedule another phone appointment a week
or three later when you’re ready for next steps.
Some clients need to complete their project by a tight deadline or want
to expedite their success and prefer to come to my home to work
in-person. The only thing we require is that you complete your package
within one year from the date of the first appointment.
Are You
Wondering If This Will be Worth Your While?
You may be thinking, "There are a lot of consultants out there. What's
so special about you?" Hopefully, the testimonials from a wide variety
of satisfied clients will show my proven track record. I don't make
empty promises. My goal is to 1) exceed your expectations, 2) help you
make tangible progress on your goals, and 3) help you develop an
original, one-of-a-kind identity that catapults your career,
dramatically increases your income, establishes you as a respected
expert on your topic, and attracts favorable interest from publishers,
meeting planners, readers, audience members, website visitors, blog
readers, and media.
My rather rare combination of experience uniquely qualifies me to mentor
you. A few of my credentials include:
* Top-rated speaker at the '96 and '98 International Platform
Association conventions and
2003-2004 Outstanding Capital
Speaker. I've presented programs to more than half a
million people worldwide and for such
organizations as NASA, Young Presidents
Organization, National
Governors Association, the US Navy, Hewlett-Packard, Fortune
500 Forum, Lockheed
Martin, Loma Linda University , Legg Mason, and ASAE.
* My books (from major New York publishers St. Martin 's Press and
Perigee) have been
sold around the world,
endorsed by Seth Godin, Anthony Robbins, Ken Blanchard, John
Gray, Stephen Covey,
Jack Canfield, Richard Carlson, and Susan Jeffers, and have
been favorably reviewed
in Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, Washington Post, Chicago
Tribune, Investors
Business Daily, and dozens of other national publications.
* 14-time Emcee of the world-renowned Maui Writers Conference, which
has given me
a first-hand
opportunity to work alongside hundreds of best-selling authors and top
directors (e.g., Frank
McCourt, Ron Howard, James Brooks, Tami Hoag,Sue Grafton),
and dozens of top
agents and executives from New York 's largest publishing houses.
* Frequent media guest who's been interviewed on every major network
(CBS, NBC, ABC,
FOX), and hundreds of
TV and radio shows including NPR, Jay Leno’s Tonight Show, Dr.
Laura, and To Tell
The Truth (where her Tongue Fu! team stumped the panel!)
* Consultant who has worked with
satisfied clients from around the world ( London,
Canada , Australia , 40+ states)
to help them realize their professional goals. As Lisa
Delman, author of Dear Mom, I
Want You To Know . . said, "I could go on and on about
Sam Horn. She is completely
focused on the needs of the client and is dedicated to
helping others fulfill their
dreams. She has an incredible talent for putting words together
and bringing out the essence of
the message. I admire her sincerity, honesty, and
integrity and I am so grateful
for her expertise. She is the best!"
What's this mean to you? I don't just talk about how to become a
one-of-a-kind infopreneur who publishes books, speaks internationally,
consults, attracts national media attention, and earns a good living,
I've done it. More importantly, my clients have done it too.
One of my most satisfying accomplishments is receiving emails from
satisfied clients who tell me about their completed, successful projects
and say, “I couldn’t have done it without you.” I love walking into
bookstores around the country and turning the books of clients FACE-OUT.
I love sitting in the audience and watching a client deliver a
presentation that has audience members standing on their feet and
cheering . . .and then going home and following up on what they’ve
learned to reap real-world results. I hope receiving “before and after”
letters from clients who tell me how satisfying it is to get paid to do
work they love with people they respect.
I
hope to have the pleasure and privilege to do that for you, someday
soon.

Please know that in the years I've had the good fortune to help people
turn their entrepreneurial dreams into reality, I have NEVER met anyone
who was sorry he or she wrote their book, launched a speaking or
coaching career, or became an infopreneur . . . I have only met people
who were sorry they didn't start sooner. I look forward to hearing from
you soon, and hope we have a chance to work together soon so you and
your ideas and offerings POP! out.
