Imagine emailing one of your heroes—an author, artist, business leader, or celebrity that you admire—making a bold request, and getting a response a couple of hours later that says:
“Yes.”
Today on my website, I’m sharing a true story about a time this happened to me and one of my colleagues.
Check out the article. In it, you’ll find:
- A behind-the-scenes peek into my process when I’m working with a client—how I help my clients get publishing deals and write powerful books that change lives.
- A story about a shoot-for-the-moon ask that led to a surprising result.
- The exact email we used to
make the ask.
- My tips for making successful requests and getting more yeses.
This is a long-form article that goes into all the details of what happened. Curl up and read it with your coffee or tea.
I hope this story inspires you to reach out to someone to make an ask, big or small.
You never know. They just might say yes.
Maybe today, you will:
- Ask your employer if you can switch to a different schedule.
- Request that your spouse
handle dinner three nights a week so you can study, write, work out, or rest.
- Follow up with a potential client who has been on the fence and ask if they're ready to move forward.
- Reach out to a colleague to propose a win-win collaboration that could be exciting for both of you.
What do you want to call into your life?
Make the ask.
