Worth It

A transformative experience with Jill Salzman.

Charge
your worth,
find
your focus
and
make more money
then you ever have before.

I know how challenging you’ve found it to build your business while you’re raising your family.

You’ve been heads-down trying to figure out how to make it all work. You’ve spent countless hours tweaking your website and adjusting your marketing materials and searching for that ever elusive word-of-mouth success. You’ve focused on how you want your customers to feel and what experience you’re providing for them. Every day, you struggle to find customers and then keep them coming back for more.

You also struggle to navigate the negative self-talk waters. When overwhelm hits – and it hits hard – you hesitate to reach out to even the most supportive people in your life because…well, you’re overwhelmed. You don’t wanna bother anyone. You feel like you should have the hang of this by now. Between the pull of your family’s needs, the friends that want your attention, and the business’s neverending to-do list, you’re not sure that you’ve got what it takes to keep going.

Oh, how I understand what you’re going through.

I spent the first 10 years of my entrepreneurial career trying to figure out how to make it all work…and feeling defeated all the time. I launched 3 businesses while I was raising a toddler and a newborn. I crafted and reworked website pages relentlessly. I said “yes” to everything and didn’t know how to put boundaries around my schedule. I charged too little, worked too much, and constantly gave away my time and value in the hopes that one day it would all just fall into place. People told me I was nuts. Friends confessed that they didn’t think I’d succeed. And after a little while, I started to believe them.

During my second decade of entrepreneurship, I realized that how I approached so many things – mastering my marketing skills, selling more stuff, giving myself away – it still wasn’t working. I’d worked so hard on the doing that I didn’t realize how much I needed to step back and focus on the being.

Slowly but surely, I found my focus.

The steps I needed to take were right in front of me, but I’d created so much busy-ness building my business that I couldn’t see them. As the fog lifted, I started to uncover the truths about my relationship to money, to mindset, and to myself. I began to work with mentors, coaches, and consultants who guided me to the right places. I started to see how to work smart, not hard. I finally had the time to do what I wanted to do and the energy to be the entrepreneur that I wanted to be.

I’ve been able to create a successful, sustainable business and I know that you can, too. You just need a guide.

  • Imagine a world in which you feel less stressed out, less overwhelmed, and less burdened to go-go-go all the livelong day. It’s possible.
  • Imagine a business that you feel is fully in your control, one that doesn’t own you or your schedule, one that makes you money and lets you spend time with your family. It’s possible.
  • Imagine a life that you can live to the fullest, one where you shine as a strong and confident entrepreneur that sets a beautiful example for your children by modeling what a happy, satisfied business owner looks like.

Let me guide you.

I’ve asked a select crew of brilliant experts to join me in cultivating a customized experience just for you so that you can become the business woman that you are meant to become.

  • You’ll charge what you’re worth. You’ll build what you really want to build.
  • You’ll be able to dive deep with us to get sound business advice specific to your needs.
  • You’ll connect with fellow mom entrepreneurs that are on a similar path.
  • You’ll learn how to get a handle on your mindset to steer clear of fear and self-doubt.
  • You’ll engineer your life to become a life lived in the way you want to live it.

Together with a small group of 4 fellow entrepreneurs, we’ll work in group and one-on-one settings to change your mindset. You’ll find the time to get it all done and you’ll really do it.

Experts

Jill Salzman, a woman with curly brown hair, is wearing oversized hexagonal glasses and bright pink lipstick. She is leaning on her hands over an open newspaper, looking directly at the camera with a focused expression. The scene has a professional and thoughtful tone, with part of her reflection visible in a nearby glass surface.

Jill Salzman turns the mundane into inspiration and transforms the impossible into the achievable. Through defying expectations and breaking the rules, she succeeds in inspiring small business entrepreneurs and helping women figure out what works for them by using meaningful action to create positive results.

It took graduating from law school for Jill to quickly discover she wanted nothing to do with lawyer life and built a music management firm instead.  She then launched and sold a baby jewelry company. Running two companies simultaneously while experiencing the joys of motherhood full-time led to the founding of her current venture, The Founding Moms, the award-winning platform for mom entrepreneurs to build better businesses.

Jill is the author of The Best Business Book In The World* (according to my mom) and the Amazon best-seller, Found It: A Field Guide for Mom Entrepreneurs. She’s shared the speaker stage with Richard Branson, Sheryl Sandberg, Daymond John, Marilu Henner, and Desmond Tutu among others, and professed her love of Eddie Vedder in her TEDx talk on 11/11/11. She hosts the top-rated entertaining business podcast, Why Are We Shouting?, a question she asks herself daily. CNNMoney calls her a “mommy mogul.” MSN Live says she’s a “Cool Mom Entrepreneur We Love.” Forbes rated her a Top 100 Champion Small Business Influencer and voted The Founding Moms one of the Top 10 Websites For Entrepreneurs.

When she’s not speaking to audiences in patterned leggings, podcasting from her basement, or inspiring subscribers in 23 countries and counting, she’s on one of two crusades: getting an interview with Stephen Colbert and convincing her daughters that cassette tapes actually existed.

Melissa Ford, a woman with shoulder-length brown hair, is smiling warmly against a dark background. She is wearing a sleeveless patterned top, and her expression exudes approachability and confidence.

Melissa Ford is a master business and life coach who helps people grow their leadership, impact, income and joy. Her clients range from highly committed coaches and entrepreneurs to executives and career changers. With over 20 years of experience, SERVICE is the cornerstone of everything she does. This value shines through in her books Living Service: The Journey of a Prosperous Coach, and as a contributing author to the #1 Bestseller, When All Boats Rise: 12 Coaches on Service as the Heart of a Thriving Practice. Melissa loves spending time with her family and friends as well as enjoying the beauty of her favorite windy city, Chicago.
