Why My Dentist Rocks and Testimonial Tuesday

I love going to the dentist.

 

No, seriously.

 

I love the way my mouth feels after my teeth are cleaned.

 

I love taking care of myself.

 

And I love seeing my dentist, Dr. Gustafson.

 

He’s successful and a real go-getter. Dr. Gustafson loves learning and investing in himself and his practice.

 

And it shows; every time I go there, my experience gets better.

 

Last Thursday morning, while Dr. Gustafson was polishing up my teeth, he shared an idea with me. I loved it so much, I’ve decided to incorporate it on my site, starting today. It’s so awesome; I can’t wait to share it with you. The really cool thing is, it’s a win-win for both us. And if there’s one thing I love, it’s win-win situations.

 

So what is this amazing, win-win idea?

 

It’s called Testimonial Tuesday.

 

What is Testimonial Tuesday? you might ask.

 

Testimonial Tuesday is a new weekly feature I’m starting today on this site.

 

I’ll highlight comments or feedback from one of my students or clients about a class or service they’ve taken from me.

 

You know those reviews on Amazon.com or Yelp? It’s kind of like that.

 

What’s so great about that? you wonder.

 

I don’t know about you, but I rarely do new things without learning something about the person or company behind them. While I can’t uncover every possible thing about the product or service, it’s important I do a little footwork. A little due diligence, before I spend my money or my time. I don’t encourage you to do work with anyone, including me, before learning about them and talking to some of their clients. When I hire an employee, for instance, I give them references for me. I did this with my nanny last year. Along with checking out her references, I gave her references for my family of babysitters who’ve worked for us. I wanted her to know what it was like working for the Pfeffer family. Are we messy? Do we have realistic expectations? You know, those kinds of things. Why do this? It helps cut down on problems later, like us being the wrong fit. As famous success coach Brian Tracy says, every minute planned saves you 10-12 minutes in execution. So the next time you’re thinking of doing something, especially something new, and you’re questioning whether it’s worth it to spend some time up front checking things out, remember that 10 minutes of planning can possibly save you an 60-90 minutes of wasted time. If you’re a go-getter and considering working with me or taking one of my classes, I want you to have a pool of information to pull from, instead of having no information and just hoping we’re a good fit.

 

Make sense?

 

Okay then. Without further adieu, here is the first installment of Testimonial Tuesday. It comes from the lovely Mollika Biernat of Detroit, Michigan. Mollika has taken my Creative Insight Journey course, my Uplift course, has done private coaching with me, and is a current member of my Uplift Membership Group, a community of positive, ambitious people aiming to make 2015 their best year yet. Most recently, Mollika took my 14 Day Radical Self Love Challenge. Here is what Mollika had to say about her work with me:

 

“Dear Jaime, I absolutely adored your Uplift class. I would not have gotten the promotion I did last year without your coaching. Your lessons have stuck with me and have improved my career, relationships, and have helped me in raising my children. I am so grateful for you and the work you do.” – Mollika, Detroit, Michigan

 

Thanks, Mollika! I adore you, too!
