[SGC 31] Quiz Lead Magnets for Coaches; A Case Study with Guest Celia Varghese

By Melissa Brown, MD


How does a Board-certified psychiatrist become a business mindset coach for Christian mompreneurs? Celia Varghese listened to that inner voice that whispered to her that she had finally found the place where she was called to serve.

And once she said yes to this special calling — this niche where she felt right at home, she has consistently put together the pieces of her coaching business to serve a community of her just-right people.

One of the first things she quickly discovered is to serve her audience with resources that mompreneurs can consume in the nooks and crannies of their busy day. A compelling lead magnet quiz has been the answer to building Celia’s email list. This tool serves her audience by helping them identify their specific entrepreneurial God-given gifts.

Listen to Episode 31 of The She’s Got Content podcast where Celia describes her journey of finding her niche and developing her lead magnet quiz for her mompreneur audience.

Don’t Miss Inside This Episode:

  • Learn about the importance of listening to your inner voice and the impact it has on the success of your business. If there’s a voice inside you that’s telling you something’s not right–listen to it. Likewise, that voice can tell you when you’re on the path to your life’s purpose.
  • Why coaches will want to consider creating a lead magnet quiz instead of the usual PDFs, eBooks, or worksheets. The conversion rate that Celia is experiencing with her quiz is well above the industry standard for other forms of lead magnets.
  • The most important thing you’ll want to nail down with clarity before you begin creating your quiz. Once you have this information solidly down, the rest of the quiz-creating process falls into place.
  • Learn what type of quizzes perform the best for coaches. Also, discover how to easily segment your audience through your quiz results and how this helps you write more effective emails tailored to each specific segment.

Speaker:

One thing the experience also taught me. It's also really important to listen to

Speaker:

your inner voice. Don't ignore that inner voice, because if it doesn't

Speaker:

feel right, if it doesn't sit right, it's not going to end up being the

Speaker:

results you want. It's going to manifest in every area of your business. So

Speaker:

that was also an important lesson I learned when I did

Speaker:

switch to the Christian mompreneur niche, because I wanted to make

Speaker:

sure this felt aligned and this felt right, and my inner voice was saying, yes,

Speaker:

this is the path for you. When I did the side gigs, it just fell

Speaker:

slightly off. I didn't feel super connected, and that showed everywhere.

Speaker:

Hello there, content creators. You're listening to The She's Got

Speaker:

in with today's episode, because you've got content to get

Speaker:

out there. Hello, and welcome back to another

Speaker:

episode of The She's Got Content Podcast. My guest today is

Speaker:

Celia Varghese, who probably has a cappuccino in her hand right

Speaker:

now. That's because she's a coffee loving, laid

Speaker:

back, Jesus loving, nerd tastic cheerleader. And if you

Speaker:

don't know what a nerd, tastic cheerleader is, let's just say you'll

Speaker:

definitely want one of those on your team. They make the very best

Speaker:

coaches. Celia is not only a trained,

Speaker:

certified life coach, she's also a board certified psychiatrist

Speaker:

with training in cognitive behavioral therapy and

Speaker:

psychodynamic psychotherapy. As a Christian

Speaker:

mompreneur coach, Celia now integrates her experience and

Speaker:

her vast skills to help Christian female entrepreneurs

Speaker:

navigate motherhood and business without sacrificing themselves

Speaker:

or their faith. Welcome, Celia. I'm so happy to have

Speaker:

you here on the podcast. Thank you so much for having me, Melissa. I love

Speaker:

being here. Great. Well, I'm sure

Speaker:

that the listeners here are wondering about this

Speaker:

leap, this leap that you've taken from psychiatrist to coach.

Speaker:

So I'm just going to have you go right ahead and take over here and

Speaker:

tell us how that came about. There's got to be a story behind how you

Speaker:

got involved with coaching and coaching Christian

Speaker:

entrepreneurs in general. So tell us.

Speaker:

There's definitely a story. I started out my first job as an

Speaker:

attending working at the VA, and over

Speaker:

time, I started to burn out, and I was struggling

Speaker:

with the burnout. At that time, I saw this blog

Speaker:

post about one of the physicians using a coach. I'm like, oh, wow,

Speaker:

I've never heard of that. I reached out to that person, I started

Speaker:

coaching, and that was just so helpful with

Speaker:

the burnout and just dealing with everything going on at that time. It helped that

Speaker:

she was a physician too, so she understood where I was coming from. Oh,

Speaker:

this coach that you hired, she was also a physician?

Speaker:

Yeah, she spent burned out and working in the healthcare system. So

Speaker:

I thought she would be a perfect fit at that time. Excellent. Okay,

Speaker:

go on. It was so great. She helped me see my job wasn't

Speaker:

all bad, that it was good and bad. She helped me see the positive

Speaker:

aspects I've been doing at my job. And what I really appreciated at

Speaker:

that time is that she helped me see how I

Speaker:

was helping the patients versus putting it all on me and like, how stressed I

Speaker:

am, how everything is going on where I was just feeling so tired and

Speaker:

drained. Although, even though at the very end I decided to

Speaker:

leave, I felt like I left on better terms than I normally would have had

Speaker:

I not had a coach. And just having that support and just someone

Speaker:

who understood really made a huge difference. So because of her

Speaker:

coaching and just being through that experience, I have training in therapy

Speaker:

and have done that. But this was a totally different feel to it because this

Speaker:

was more positive focus and goal-focused in a sense. Like,

Speaker:

what do you want your future to look like? How do we deal with what's

Speaker:

happening right now? I wanted to know more about it. So I left my

Speaker:

job and a month later joined Life Coach School and

Speaker:

started my training and three months later got pregnant.

Speaker:

I was basically dealing with the pregnancy while being in school as well.

Speaker:

At that time. I wanted to help physicians have a

Speaker:

side gig and be able to explore that and see if they wanted to career

Speaker:

transition later on. That was suggested to me by my

Speaker:

marketing coach at that time. This was in 2021.

Speaker:

I wasn't too keen on it, but I was okay with it because, before that,

Speaker:

my original niche was career transition because I was like, all

Speaker:

right, I'm just going to do coaching forever and I'm not going to do anything

Speaker:

else. But then he mentioned about the value of a side gig. Maybe

Speaker:

people are not ready to completely career transition. Maybe a side gig might be a

Speaker:

better route. So I did that, but I did that against my better judgment. And

Speaker:

I felt that it wasn't right. And as I was working through it,

Speaker:

it just did not resonate with me. And I could feel it and see it

Speaker:

through my business. Like doors were closed. It was just not much movement was

Speaker:

happening. So I attended this Christian coaching challenge

Speaker:

on a random. And when I attended it, I felt

Speaker:

like this was my community. Like they understood me, they got me. And

Speaker:

the coach was actually coaching people on their niche at that

Speaker:

time. And I spoke about my niche. I just don't feel aligned with this. This

Speaker:

does not feel right. And he's like, what do you want to do, really? I

Speaker:

want to help Christian moms who are struggling with their business and

Speaker:

with motherhood and trying to make it work together, especially with

Speaker:

young babies, because I think my son was under one year old at that point.

Speaker:

Trying to juggle both was a full-time job, and that felt

Speaker:

really passionate to me because once you've become a mom, it's a totally different ball.

Speaker:

It's just so different. No one tells you about it until you actually

Speaker:

live. Absolutely. Yeah. Oh, I can relate to this because

Speaker:

my oldest was ten months old when I started

Speaker:

medical school. Oh, wow. There were a handful of us

Speaker:

females in the medical school class, and no

Speaker:

one, hardly anybody was married and nobody had child.

Speaker:

That was initiation under fire. And then by the

Speaker:

time I started my residency, I had two. Wow.

Speaker:

Yeah. That's a lot to juggle that in med school and residency. Yes. And

Speaker:

there was nobody doing coach back then. You just had to kind of wing

Speaker:

it. Right. But if there had been someone like you who

Speaker:

was available to help somebody like

Speaker:

me and I know there are a lot of women out there who need that

Speaker:

kind of service, but okay, I digress. Go ahead.

Speaker:

Go back to the story. So he was coaching me,

Speaker:

and I was feeling more aligned with it, but I wanted to make sure that

Speaker:

this felt right. So with more coaching and prayer, I finally decided

Speaker:

to shift my niche to help Christian entrepreneurs who are struggling

Speaker:

with motherhood and entrepreneurship and trying to manage that together without

Speaker:

sacrificing themselves and their faith. Ever since then, I felt like this is where

Speaker:

I'm called to be and to help those who need the help. One

Speaker:

thing the experience also taught me, it's also really important to listen to your

Speaker:

inner voice. Don't ignore that inner voice, because if it doesn't feel

Speaker:

right, if it doesn't sit right, it's not going to end up being the results

Speaker:

you want. It's going to manifest in every area of your business. So that

Speaker:

was also an important lesson I learned when I did

Speaker:

switch to the Christian mompreneur niche, because I wanted to make

Speaker:

sure this felt aligned and this felt right. And my inner voice was saying, yes,

Speaker:

this is the path for you. When I did the side gigs, it just felt

Speaker:

slightly off. I didn't feel super connected, and that showed everywhere.

Speaker:

That's such a great point, because if there's an internal

Speaker:

conflict where you're not feeling aligned

Speaker:

with the direction your business is going, there's going to

Speaker:

be all sorts of roadblocks that you think, what is this

Speaker:

happening? Right. You can look at there's an internal

Speaker:

struggle here that's going on. And with coaching, it

Speaker:

sounds like you saw a different path to take, and you

Speaker:

feel like, oh, I finally arrived. I've got my people. I

Speaker:

know where my people are. And I love that you

Speaker:

were able to find that. Sometimes people go down a path and

Speaker:

they're like, well, I'm too deep into this now. How can I

Speaker:

extricate myself from it? So kudos

Speaker:

to you for discovering that. And that

Speaker:

experience can actually help you help other women too, who may be

Speaker:

also not feeling aligned with their niche,

Speaker:

right? Because there's a point in time

Speaker:

where you need to pivot or you need to explore

Speaker:

why it's not working. But if you're pivoting for the wrong

Speaker:

reasons, then that's going to show because everything comes down

Speaker:

to the core being how do you feel about what you're doing, how do you

Speaker:

feel about your business, how do you feel about your niche, how do you feel

Speaker:

overall with the direction it's going and then everything else stems

Speaker:

outwardly. So definitely important to realize why you're doing

Speaker:

it for the right reasons. Like for side gig, I knew from the

Speaker:

beginning and I think the lesson I learned is also learning to speak up for

Speaker:

myself and learning to be like, no, this doesn't sound right to me. Even

Speaker:

though when I was listening to the marketing coach, I trusted him because he knew

Speaker:

more than me. But yet my inner voice and what my intuition

Speaker:

was telling me was, no, this doesn't feel right. You don't really believe in it,

Speaker:

so how can you let this be your business? Whereas when I pivoted to

Speaker:

the Christian mompreneur niche, that felt right, that felt

Speaker:

aligned with what I believe and what I'm experiencing.

Speaker:

And I could see myself really helping the Christian

Speaker:

mompreneurs and also just as a preventative to get

Speaker:

coached on it to make sure I'm doing it for the right reasons. So I

Speaker:

think discerning that and having a good awareness of that because sometimes when things are

Speaker:

not working out, you just want to pivot to something else. And try to and

Speaker:

you don't want to just be running away from something that feels hard.

Speaker:

Because online business coaching,

Speaker:

if it was so easy, everybody would be doing it, right? There's

Speaker:

a journey here and it's not meant to be

Speaker:

completely a piece of cake, right? And sometimes

Speaker:

as online business owners, we kind of like, oh,

Speaker:

I don't want this to be so hard. Maybe I shouldn't be doing this. Let

Speaker:

me look over here. This looks easier. I should do that, right?

Speaker:

With a good coach like yourself, then you can help people kind

Speaker:

of work through that. And it sounds like you had a really good coach

Speaker:

helping you through that and for all the right reasons, you made the pivot.

Speaker:

Yes. When business owners make a pivot,

Speaker:

there's all that rebranding to do. And so

Speaker:

I know that part of your

Speaker:

rebranding was to create a quiz. And that's the thing that

Speaker:

I really want to hone in here on today for our

Speaker:

listeners. Because I think for a coach to have a

Speaker:

quiz is a great idea. It's a great lead magnet. It helps

Speaker:

to segment your audience. So let's talk a little bit about your

Speaker:

quiz. Tell us about your quiz, how you decided

Speaker:

to create this quiz, and go ahead and tell us all about it.

Speaker:

Okay. With the quiz, I had tried so many different lead magnets

Speaker:

before, like a PDF or workbook, and

Speaker:

it didn't resonate the way that I thought it

Speaker:

would. And I came across Linda Sidhu, who had

Speaker:

Quiz Lab. I enrolled in it, and she taught me everything I knew about quizzes.

Speaker:

What appealed to me about quizzes is that they're just so much fun to take.

Speaker:

Remember back in the day when we were young and we would be like on

Speaker:

Cosmopolitan and you were taking a quiz and see what oh, yes. Or sitting at

Speaker:

the airport and you're just like, flipping through a magazine, and you took a quiz

Speaker:

just while you're waiting for your flight to come? Oh, yes. It's fun, it's enjoyable.

Speaker:

And that's what I wanted for my audience, a quiz that they love, that they

Speaker:

enjoy, and that's not like, super long or takes too much time,

Speaker:

because sometimes with lead magnets, you give a lot of

Speaker:

value, but it requires you to do a lot of work in the beginning, depending

Speaker:

on where you are in life. If you're a busy mom with young kids, it

Speaker:

may not be too doable to work through a worksheet at that point.

Speaker:

But if you do a quiz, you have an idea of where you're landing at,

Speaker:

and you have the results page where it'll be fun to read, it won't take

Speaker:

too much time, and it fits into your schedule as well.

Speaker:

Great point for the busy mompreneur. They don't have a whole lot of time,

Speaker:

so taking a two or three minute quiz, do you have a video on

Speaker:

your results page? No, that's definitely on my to do list. I have

Speaker:

mostly different sections on the. Results page, or I'm even thinking

Speaker:

on the results page for your audience, an audio. Right.

Speaker:

Something that they can listen to while they're changing diapers or they're

Speaker:

doing other mom things as they're trying to catch up on some things on

Speaker:

their business. That's a great point. I'm going to make a note of that.

Speaker:

Yeah. We always have to think about what the audience, what they

Speaker:

need in terms of their time and what are the things

Speaker:

they have on their plate. And we know that a mom of a small child,

Speaker:

baby, infant, toddler, small child, they

Speaker:

have limited amounts of time to do certain things. So you're very smart

Speaker:

to do a quiz that only takes a few minutes and then have

Speaker:

their results that are customized based on their answers. Right.

Speaker:

You brought up a great point with segmentation because since you have the results of

Speaker:

the quiz, you have different aspects of the personality of who fits into what. So

Speaker:

you actually tailor your emails to those who've taken your

Speaker:

quiz. Absolutely. What is the name of your

Speaker:

quiz and what are the

Speaker:

different results. How many results? I guess let's focus there

Speaker:

on just how many results, because I know if you're creating a

Speaker:

quiz and you have a lot of different results, that's a lot of

Speaker:

work. How did you hone in on that aspect of it?

Speaker:

My quiz has four personality results, so I focused on four

Speaker:

because four seems to be a good number, and I did it based on their

Speaker:

personality. So the results that I have are

Speaker:

trailblazer, torch bearer, servant leader, and tactician.

Speaker:

And a trailblazer is someone who's visionary, who makes quick

Speaker:

decisions, who's confident, who knows what they want in business and in

Speaker:

motherhood. A torch bearer is someone who's more like the person

Speaker:

who's the light of the room when you walk in. You know that person is

Speaker:

definitely the one you need to speak to. And it's great with connecting and as

Speaker:

a referral network. And a servant leader is the

Speaker:

cheerleader who cheers everyone on and is so supportive of you, and

Speaker:

who is the one you turn to because she'll listen to you. And the tactician

Speaker:

is the one who loves data analysis and results. She's the

Speaker:

one who if you have a question about how many people are opening my emails,

Speaker:

this is good. Not good. This is what Google Analytics is telling me. She's definitely

Speaker:

the one to go to because she knows how to read. Okay, all right,

Speaker:

I love that. Is that based on DISC assessments?

Speaker:

Yeah, that's based on the DISC assessment. Love it, love it. Okay, so

Speaker:

you've got your four different results. What's the name of

Speaker:

your quiz? What is your God given entrepreneurial gift?

Speaker:

Okay, so a mompreneur comes along, sees your quiz, and they're

Speaker:

like, I wonder which one of these I fall into and how

Speaker:

long does it take for them to take your quiz? How many questions are there?

Speaker:

There's nine questions and generally less than two minutes. Okay.

Speaker:

Super short. Okay. And then they get their results

Speaker:

page. And then you said you have different email

Speaker:

sequences that go out based on which personality type

Speaker:

they fit into, is that correct? Yes. So I have a welcome sequence,

Speaker:

which is five emails in there for each of the personality type,

Speaker:

and it's a little bit tailored towards them. So given what I know about the

Speaker:

results, it changes the tone and language of the emails itself.

Speaker:

And I also have a nurture sequence, but that's a little bit more broad. But

Speaker:

the welcome sequence is more for the personality types.

Speaker:

Okay. And they also get, as their first email, their quiz results

Speaker:

just in case they want to look back at it again. It's always there in

Speaker:

their email. Great. OK. Cecilia,

Speaker:

it just seems like there's a lot that goes into creating a quiz. We

Speaker:

have already talked about, well, you've got four results. Some people

Speaker:

may think that they've got a lot more results. Of course, a lot more results

Speaker:

are going to mean a lot more work. What's the most important thing to know

Speaker:

before you start creating your quiz? The most important thing to

Speaker:

know before starting a quiz is really knowing your ICA, which

Speaker:

is your ideal client avatar, and knowing their pain

Speaker:

points, what they want, in my case, like motherhood and business, their

Speaker:

transformations, what worked, what didn't work. So what's really

Speaker:

good is to actually speak to your ICA and get a sense of where they

Speaker:

are and hear their words and hear how they're conveying it to

Speaker:

you. And if that doesn't work, you'd always do a survey. But talking to your

Speaker:

ICA is definitely vital, because what you think they

Speaker:

may be struggling with may be different from what they're actually experiencing.

Speaker:

And once you have a decent amount of ICA

Speaker:

interviews you've done, then go through the data, go through the research, and then figure

Speaker:

out, all right, maybe I should make my quiz based on

Speaker:

what to do when you're struggling with trying to balance motherhood and business.

Speaker:

Or maybe I should take my quiz on you're struggling with Mom's guilt. How do

Speaker:

you cope with that? Or different aspects that you notice throughout the

Speaker:

interview. So that's definitely one of the most important thing, because that defines your

Speaker:

messaging, your positioning, everything, and also even how your quiz will

Speaker:

perform. Okay, so when you said a decent number

Speaker:

of ICA interviews, what would that look

Speaker:

like? I know you can't give an exact number, but what would you

Speaker:

suggest minimum? Five would be good. Ten would be great. All

Speaker:

right, so we're not talking 100. It's five to ten. Now,

Speaker:

if you could find 100, then you're probably going to have the best. Quiz ever

Speaker:

online, but you don't need that. Five to ten would be plenty.

Speaker:

So how do you go about scheduling these

Speaker:

ICA interviews? I ask those who I

Speaker:

think would fit that profile and send them an email and ask them and then

Speaker:

send them a scheduling link for them to hop on a call for

Speaker:

30 minutes. And sometimes I would post in groups that I'm in, hey,

Speaker:

does anyone fit this criteria, and are they willing to talk to me in regards

Speaker:

to market research? And many people are really helpful and love to

Speaker:

help, so that's been pretty nice to hear. And also, when you get on

Speaker:

the call, you kind of know when you're speaking to that person. Yes, this is

Speaker:

definitely the person I want to work with versus, like, okay, maybe

Speaker:

this is a bit off, but most of the time I'm like, yes, this is

Speaker:

definitely the person. And so you jump into a zoom room

Speaker:

and then record it so you can actually remember or transcribe

Speaker:

it so that you can get the exact words that they used?

Speaker:

Yes, definitely a zoom call and recording it because there's so much

Speaker:

happening in those, like, 30 minutes that easier to go back and

Speaker:

either transcribe it or write down notes from it.

Speaker:

Okay, so you do your research. You got the ideal

Speaker:

client avatar five to ten interviews, looking

Speaker:

for different phrases, different words, pain

Speaker:

points, how they describe it, and then you've sifted through

Speaker:

this information, and then you decide how many different

Speaker:

personality types you want and which direction,

Speaker:

depending on the research that you've done. It sounds like then you could

Speaker:

say, well, I want to focus this personality type. I

Speaker:

want to focus this with them, and that with another

Speaker:

personality type. Is that how it works? Kind of. So

Speaker:

it's like taking all the data and then seeing where most

Speaker:

of them fit, having the broad outline, and then focusing on the four

Speaker:

personalities. And you kind of even see when you're focusing on the four

Speaker:

personalities, for example, trailblazer, how they're like a visionary and they quick to

Speaker:

make decisions and really know what they want. You see how the ICA

Speaker:

fits into that and then you tailor your results into it. So you take different

Speaker:

points and see where they are at and then put it together. How

Speaker:

difficult was it to come up with questions and then the answers

Speaker:

that would help put people into certain I hate to call them

Speaker:

buckets, but you know what I mean, separate them into the different personality

Speaker:

types. That part took a little bit time and

Speaker:

reflection to definitely come up the questions and putting them in the buckets. I

Speaker:

think it helped going back to the IC interviews and seeing what they said

Speaker:

to help me pick certain questions and see where they

Speaker:

would land. A lot of it's also trial and error, because even though you have

Speaker:

the quiz and the questions, once you put it out there, it's also testing to

Speaker:

see what's resonating and what's not resonating. Okay, that was another

Speaker:

question I was going to ask. So you put it out, you've got to launch

Speaker:

it at some point. And then you're constantly looking at your results, how

Speaker:

many people have taken it, what the results are. The people that you

Speaker:

then meet, you go back to look at what personality they

Speaker:

have and did this really reflect their

Speaker:

visionary or their trailblazer? You got

Speaker:

it. So you're constantly then

Speaker:

checking and revising and tweaking, I'm

Speaker:

assuming, or you're constantly getting data. That's what yeah, you're constantly

Speaker:

getting data. Whether you need to change or tweak it, that all depends on the

Speaker:

data that you get. Yes, because I realized there was a question I had. How

Speaker:

does your bestie describe you? That was my first question.

Speaker:

But after looking at the data, I realized that might actually be a

Speaker:

turn off. And people not taking my quiz because I didn't take into account

Speaker:

that sometimes in motherhood it could be a bit lonely, along with entrepreneurship,

Speaker:

and your friendships may not be as strong as they were when you might have

Speaker:

been younger. So that question actually turned out to be maybe

Speaker:

not the best first question to have. So I took that out, put something else,

Speaker:

and then that actually ended up with better results. So you

Speaker:

had tried PDFs or worksheets or things like that in the past

Speaker:

and not gotten real good results with people taking

Speaker:

the opportunity to opt in. How's it going

Speaker:

now with the quiz, having a quiz? It's going better. My

Speaker:

conversion rate is 65.2, which is wow.

Speaker:

Yeah. That's excellent. Thank you. So that's been really

Speaker:

good. I think it's different from the norm because you have a lot of

Speaker:

PDFs and courses and stuff, but there's not too many quizzes out there.

Speaker:

Yeah. And the fact that it doesn't take too much time and it's fun. I

Speaker:

think that plays a lot into. It as well as we talked about before,

Speaker:

knowing your audience and knowing the amount of time that they have and

Speaker:

it's just a few minutes of their time to find out more about themselves

Speaker:

with your particular audience especially, they think you're playing right into their

Speaker:

needs right there. So

Speaker:

65% conversion rate, that sounds like amazing.

Speaker:

Whereas maybe, what, one or 2% with PDF or

Speaker:

other kinds of lead magnets, depending on how

Speaker:

compelling the audience seems to feel that might

Speaker:

be. That's amazing. How long did it take you from start

Speaker:

to finish to create your quiz? Oh, it took four

Speaker:

months, actually quite a lot since I went through it with the Quiz Lab. We

Speaker:

did it from beginning and end, so there was just a lot of moving parts

Speaker:

with it between the questions, the results, the tech behind

Speaker:

it, figuring out the title, figuring out the tagline, like all of it. So it

Speaker:

took a lot of time, but I felt like it was worth it at the

Speaker:

end because it sounds like it's one of my most favorite digital products that I

Speaker:

ever created. So it's not something that you

Speaker:

decide one day you're going to have and then the next day you slap it

Speaker:

together and put it out there. It sounds like this is something that you need

Speaker:

to spend your time. You've got to do that research first. You come

Speaker:

up with your questions, you come up with your different categories

Speaker:

for the different personalities. And that actually makes me

Speaker:

think personality quiz. Is that the best type

Speaker:

of quiz for coaches to create for their audience? I think

Speaker:

so, because since you're a coach, you're working with different types of personalities

Speaker:

and people like to know more about themselves. They're good at what not

Speaker:

good at, and it's a natural drawing into your world. I

Speaker:

would say personality quizzes because who doesn't love a good quiz? Who reveals, like, something

Speaker:

about you didn't know or wish you knew about before? Good

Speaker:

point. Is there anything else you think other coaches that are

Speaker:

listening to this should know about creating a quiz for their

Speaker:

audience? Just knowing that, yes, it takes time and effort,

Speaker:

but it's so worth it at the end, you'll have a product that you love,

Speaker:

the conversion rates are higher, you get to know your audience in a deeper level

Speaker:

and that helps with doing the welcome nurture sequence and even

Speaker:

your regular newsletter, how you speak to your audience. And it's just

Speaker:

fun. Overall, I think this is like an opt in that's really enjoyable,

Speaker:

which is important because sometimes business could get really in the day to day

Speaker:

grind. Sometimes just having something fun makes it a little bit lighter.

Speaker:

Love that. Awesome. Well, I could talk to you all day. I love this

Speaker:

about quizzes. I've thought about having a quiz, but I just haven't taken the leap

Speaker:

yet. So I'm going to go back and listen to this and take my

Speaker:

notes again. And I really thank you for all

Speaker:

this information and I'm sure that our audience will want to know

Speaker:

how they can take your quiz. Great question, Melissa. So my

Speaker:

quiz is located at

Speaker:

www.mindsetcoachmd.com /

Speaker:

quiz. And the title again is what is your God given entrepreneurial

Speaker:

gift? And with my quiz, just wanted to mention that God

Speaker:

created us with unique gifts and talents, but we might not be aware of what

Speaker:

they are. So as a mother and entrepreneur, sometimes we get lost

Speaker:

in doing everything supposed to be good at everything and don't have time for anything.

Speaker:

We forget what we're naturally good at. So my quiz helps with

Speaker:

unlocking the path that's right for you and showing you which one to lean into

Speaker:

so you feel less overwhelmed and have a clearer path on what works well for

Speaker:

when you navigate motherhood and entrepreneurship. So if this appeals for you,

Speaker:

definitely take the quiz and let me know what your results are because I love

Speaker:

hearing back from those who take the quiz. And I will

Speaker:

put that link into the show notes. If you weren't able

Speaker:

to write it down real fast, as Celia said it, that's

Speaker:

fine. It will be in the Show Notes so you can always find it over

Speaker:

there. Click over there and go over and take that quiz.

Speaker:

Speaker:

to find you? Are you on LinkedIn, Facebook? What are

Speaker:

some other places that you might be found? I'm also on

Speaker:

Instagram, so you can find me at
