No BS Business School
I’m Jan – business educator, revenue coach and the Host of No BS Business School.
I help industry experts uncover the blind spots in their business and lean into their unique gifts, so they can take intentional action to scale their online revenue.
My podcast is my love letter to the gusty, unapologetically talented female entrepreneurs who listen, to help them stay inspired and keep moving in the right direction as they grow the online side of their business.
It’s also where I share everything I’ve learned about turning a 20+ real world career into a 6-figure online business, and how the women who listen to my show can do the same.
I turned the art of buying someone a $5 cup of coffee into a $20 million career. I had a 20+ year career as an award-winning business operations strategist and professional fundraiser.
When I decided to follow my dream of being my own boss, I struggled to grow my online business following the generic advice that seems to dominate this market.
So, I went back to using the tactics that I know so well from the real world and transferred them into the digital space, and my business took off online!
Now, I share that knowledge with other experts to help them scale up their online presence, in a way that’s tailored to their specific needs, rather than following generic trends or advice.
And let me tell you, if you’ve been a subject matter expert in the real world, you have a massive advantage when it comes to the online game. Unfortunately, that edge isn’t being shared enough, so I’m here to help!
Everything I teach on my podcast and to my clients, is based on my real-life experience of being responsible for over $20 million in revenue in my career and working with every level of expert from Grassroots, to Parliament Hill, to Hollywood.
My audience are real world industry experts who are trying to navigate the online business world without losing their money or their mind in the process.
The women who listen to my show are driven to create wealth and legacy from their unique gifts and are looking for the fluff-free strategies and action steps to make that happen.
I have a deep respect for my listeners and know how incredibly talented they are in their specific niche. My goal on the show is to be able to help them scale the online side of their business in a way that’s tailored to their unique needs, instead of just following generic trends or advice.
I think what keeps them coming back is that they know I’ll always tell it like it is, and that I already know they’re an expert. They deserve to learn from someone who is as well.
No BS Business School releases 3 episodes a week that focus on helping real world business owners and subject matter experts navigate the world of online marketing and digital sales….without losing their money or their mind in the process!
On my show, you’ll 2 short episodes a week filled with direct, concrete, actionable step-by-step tips on how to build the online side of your business, sell your programs or services more effectively and market yourself online authentically.
Plus, I’m also joined once a week by a special guest who is doing big things in business, talking about the ups and downs of life as an entrepreneur.
Think of my podcast as your trend-free cocktail hour convo with a good friend who understands the depth of your expertise and knows exactly how to translate that into a profitable online business without the BS. 🙂
I bought a church…
Well, technically, I rented a church, but it sounds much more dramatic when I say I bought one. It's actually the building that we secured to start a second business, and boy, this ride has been wild!
I've chatted about this whole process quite a bit with some of the amazing women I work with, but I've been itching to dive into it on the podcast because it's been one heck of an adventure—opening a second business, and one that's totally offline.
So, behind the scenes, for the past couple of months, I've been knee-deep in a project to reclaim the keys to an old church. Yep, it's been standing tall since 1890, right smack in the downtown core of my neck of the woods.
Now, I know what you're thinking—what does snagging an old church have to do with online business, Jan?
Stick with me, because I'm about to spill the beans and dive into some of the strategies we've been using for this project. And get this, we're flipping the script a bit—we've been using online tactics to launch this offline business!
Yep, you heard that right. While I usually dish out advice on using offline techniques to kickstart online ventures, this time around, we've been pulling out all the online stops to get this offline biz up and running in record time.
So, buckle up, because I'm about to spill some juicy details and share how I've been mixing things up strategically with this new community hub that we've launched called, The Pews.
Ready to dive in with me? Let's do this!
