Hi, this is Crystal.  First off, thanks for dropping by – I love how easy the Internet makes it to connect with people from everywhere, don’t you?

Now, I’m presuming you’ve had a quick look at the info on my site, so you’ve already read about what a Product Launch Manager (PLM) does, and where I’m coming from.  If you haven’t, in a nutshell, I use Jeff Walker’s “Product Launch Formula” to create a step by step plan for releasing your product or service online with absolutely maximum impact (and profits).  The way we set it up, it’s designed to be lots of fun for everyone, and build a fantastic relationship with your clients that you can leverage again and again.  There’s more detail coming on my ‘about’ page.

My personal twist is that I bring a background in three very different but critical fields.

• Analytics – I worked in Intelligence for a while, have been online since 1989 and am acknowledged as a subject matter expert on the Internet & Web 2.0  (I admit it, I’m a bit of a geek.)
• Psychology.  I have a degree in this, and along with Education Social & Policy Studies, have applied it very successfully to improve sales results and client retention for several organisations – large and small.  Over the time I’ve been online, it’s also helped in watching trends emerge, rise, change and/or fall – to the point where I’m now able to predict some of these shifts and trends before they happen.  You might want to check out the series I wrote for Twitip on how Twitter was following the same evolutionary path as blogging – and how that projects forward to the future.
• The Law of Attraction. I’ve personally manifested everything from new jobs at much higher pay, to the home I live in (actually, the last three homes), so I know how to make it work.  I even used LOA to raise the money to take Jeff Walker’s certification course!  Along the way I’ve discovered a few critical steps relating to self-esteem that make a huge difference to your results

Yes I know, it’s a bit of an unusual combination.  I’ve been told it’s not very common for people to be strong in both creative and logical fields, but I have a strong left-brain/right-brain connection, apparently.  I just know I’m interested in a lot of things that don’t usually go together, and a lot of people love the strategic perspective that I can offer as a result.  I particularly love working with people who have a passion for personal development, because it lets me add a whole new dimension to the launch process.

In PLM terms, what it means is that if I work with you on your launch, we’ll get all the metrics set up and monitored for early detection of any technical issues, the relationships you should develop from the process will be strong ones (no fly-by-night operators need apply) but we’ll also work together to get rid of those mental and emotional roadblocks that try to sideswipe just about everyone working towards a goal.

Obviously, that’s pretty intense, and not everyone wants to go that far.  Some people just want me to develop a launch plan they can follow, or simply arrange an hour or two of consultation.  Whatever you’re looking for, the first step is a questionnaire that really helps you get clear on your business, your product, your assets and your launch – it’s a pretty intensive one but I’ve had clients tell me they got thousands of dollars of value from just that step alone.

If you enter your name and email below, I’ll send you the questionnaire and you can check it out.  No obligation, of course.  My contact details will be in the email if you want to take it further – or if you don’t, then feel free to pass them on to someone else you know who could use them.

Best Wishes,

Crystal

PS While I do have training in Psychology, I am NOT registered so I’m not offering psychological counselling, just the benefits of my experience and training – which also covered Education, Social & Policy Studies, Communications,  and multiple Trainer Certifications, among other things.  Like I said, I love Personal Development
