Margie Remmers-Davis and Her People Found Great Value in the Find Your Voice Challenge

Hi, I'm Margie Ramirez Davis, the founder and CEO of Fast Easy qbo, which is the world's premier platform for hands on learning of QuickBooks Online. I have taught over 10,000 students how to become proficient in QuickBooks Online. And all of them, well, almost all of them really want to be freelancers and want to be business owners. So this past September, I did something that I've never done before, and that was that I did a getting clients cohort. And so what this entailed was accountability to help my students every single day reach out to people that could be potential clients. And this is something that is just really scary, especially for bookkeepers who tend to be, you know, a little bit more on the introverted side. And so as I was putting together this cohort, I knew that Stacy's find your voice challenge was going to be exactly what my students needed to be able to get over themselves. Here's what you need to know about Stacy. Stacy is a master. A master at helping people get over themselves and get into action to get moving. She's different than a mindset coach. This is not a mindset coach where you just spend a lot of time trying to adjust your brain. And instead, this is actually taking action. It is the baby steps, helping you grow, helping you inch out of your comfort zone so that you can go ahead and do the things that you know you need to do. And my bookkeepers that were involved in this cohort, they absolutely loved it and they blossomed and they got clients all over the place and they just really found their voice in this challenge. And now I can't imagine doing another cohort with. I can't imagine doing another cohort without. Without Stacy's program. Let me just read to you a couple of things that my students said. So one of my students, Sarah, said this cohort was a game changer for my business. It helped me realize the ways I have been limiting myself and letting fear keep me stuck through the challenges. I practiced using my voice and stopped keeping myself small. I realized the power of having a community behind me all, all working together with a shared goal. I proved my fear wrong. I didn't receive judgment when I put myself out there. Instead, I received lots of support and opportunities that were there the whole time. I just needed to be open to them. My student, Uyi, said this experience has been nothing short of a blessing. And another one of my students, I won't share her name because I didn't get her permission, but this is just so beautiful. She said, I learned that I had more excuses, but they won't stop me. I learned that if I have a specific list to follow with small tasks, I feel a sense of accomplishment after completing each one, which gives me an incentive to do more. I learned to use my quick tip format and run with it instead of continuing to fine tune it. One of the beautiful things about Stacy's program is that she teaches you to just do it. Messy to just do. It's more important to just do it. So my students were finding that. So my student continues. I learned that people want to help, not hinder my success. I learned that my inner voice hasn't always served me well. Time to rewire. I learned that there will be times I just need to move forward and let my family know that I need some time. I learned that rather than finding the time, I need to make the time, I learned that actions speak louder than words. And my action says, I am no longer sitting on the sidelines. I am this team's captain and I am diving in. I am just so proud of my students and the progress that they've made, the clients that they've been able to get. And most importantly, because of Stacy's find your voice program, they were able to get over themselves, get out there and start making the connections that they needed to in order to be a successful bookkeeper. So that's my story, and I can't wait to hear your success.
