HENRIETTE DANEL

POWERHOUSE GLOBAL MAGAZINE (PGMAG) INTERVIEW WITH:

HENRIETTE DANEL (HD)

PGMAG: Henriette, so good to have you on today’s interview with Lady Anita.

HD: Thank you so much for having me Anita. It’s such an honour and I appreciate the opportunity to tell your audience a bit more about what I do & how I can help them to attract more clients.

PGMAG: Please briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

HD: I’m Henriette Danel, a Strategic Business Coach working with female Entrepreneurs in the service-based industry to help them attract more clients continuously.

My speciality lies in my unique ability to take anything complicated, dissect it and put it back together in such a way that's easy to understand and implement. And because of this, my clients gain clarity and receive amazing results in the shortest amount of time.

I do believe that running a business should be fun, encouraging and led with integrity. This requires your commitment and clarity. And once you're focused, signing up clients more continuously comes naturally and organically.

I’m also a Public Speaker and the host of The Entrepreneurial Success Podcast.

PGMAG: As a Strategic Business Coach, what are the keys to building a sustainable business?

HD: I believe there are only 3 Elements, to become a successful female entrepreneur. I use these 3 elements for all my coaching programs.

1. Mindset

2. Strategy

3. Action

Think about it this way, you’ve got a big door in front of you and on the other side of that door are your biggest dreams and successes. Inside that door is a locking mechanism and you just need the Key.

Your Mindset is your biggest asset. You’ll be surprised to know that your biggest enemy to success, is you alone. You have so many inner struggles & uncertainties, which time and again stops you from reaching your wildest dreams. Learning how to shift your internal program and creating an amazing mindset of abundance is your key to that door.

Then you have Strategy, this is the locking mechanism in that door. They all need to align with your key, to open.

So, the most important strategies you need as an entrepreneur to attract more clients are: A Visibility Strategy — How are you going to show up consistently for your ideal audience to find you?

Your Attraction Strategy — How are you going to attract your ideal client to you? Then there’s the Relationship Strategy — How are you going to start and build your relationships with your ideal clients, so that they can invest in your service? Lastly, you have the Transformation Strategy — How are you going to transform your ideal client’s situation from where they are, to where they want to be? At the end of the day, you’re there to make a difference to them and have the clients return back to you for further transformations.

Once you’ve got the key and your lock is in synergy, you just need to take the action, unlock that door and push it open. However, this is also the part that most entrepreneurs don’t fulfil. Some are too scared of what lies on the other side of that door. Their actions are hindered and they don’t unlock or even push that door open, even though they know what they need to do.

You need all three elements to become successful. You can’t open the door without a key or a lock. Nor can you get what you want, without actually pushing that door open, even if you have the key inside the lock.

PGMAG: Please tell us more about your business.

HD: Let me explain is this way: How many times do you walk into your kitchen and decide: “Today I'm going to try out some new recipes! I’ll roast a chicken and make a pot of Curry all at the same time. For dessert I’ll bake a cake and pancakes… and, you know what, I think I’ll make an Apple pie while I'm at it!”

My guess is that you wouldn't try so many different recipes all at once… right? Can you imagine all the ingredients that you would need? Can you imagine the mess it will create? And not just that! All those dishes need to turn out edible…

Now you can’t imagine creating all those dishes in your kitchen, all at once, (unless you’re a master chef) but have you thought that you might be doing this with your business…? Have you been trying to incorporate too many “recipes” (aka, business plans) into your business…all at the same time?

Are you feeling defeated from trying to do it all and discouraged that you’re not getting the right results? The reason for this is, you're spreading yourself too thin – trying to do everything!

It’s time to stop trying to figure out “What else do I need to do to attract more clients?” Instead, it’s time to find that one “recipe” that works with you! A recipe that you can do over and over again that yields the best results – every time!

As a Business Coach, I work one-to-one with my clients or in group form to help them get the clarity and strategies, that’s aligned with them, to attract more clients continuously. I believe that you need to have fun in your business, show up authentically, lead with integrity and trust.

My aim is to show you that life and business is simple. Attracting clients is simple. You don’t need to overcomplicate it for yourself. Just get clarity, focus and go for it.

I have a small team that helps me out, as we all know there are only so many hours in the day. And having support myself, enables me to spend time with my clients and give them the right energy and focus they require.

As the host of my podcast called The Entrepreneurial Success Podcast, I interview numerous female entrepreneurs to share their business ideas, tips, strategies and concepts. Through these kinds of collaborations, I’ve met incredible people and had some of the most amazing conversations.

PGMAG: What is your message for world leaders?

HD: From a young age, we get taught how to talk. But we never get taught how to really listen.

We’ve become so accustomed to a world where we all need to voice our own points of view… but it’s hard to find anybody who would really listen with intent.

So, my belief is that the world will become a better place, once we all turn towards each other and start listening with intent, without interruption and acknowledge everyone else’s point of view.

PGMAG: What were the top three books that changed your life?

HD: If I have to choose three books it would be: This is Marketing – by Seth Godin Money & Law of Attraction – by Esther and Jerry Hicks Find Your Why – by Simon Sinek

PGMAG: Finally, what would you say to your younger self?

HD: Oh I love this question and I’m going to answer it a bit differently, if that’s ok. To be honest I don’t think I would want to say anything to my younger self. I know this sounds crazy, but from my point of view everything in my life – every obstacle, mistake, error, block or fear – I had to experience them, which evidently brought me to where I am today.

And I know that today, I’m in the right place, exactly where I need to be.

So if I had to tell myself something or give myself any advice, maybe I would’ve taken a different turn or made a different decision about something, propelling me in a different direction. So, yes I think my younger self had to go through all the experiences, hardship and mistakes – because that made me who I am today.

PGMAG: Thank you for your time – much appreciated.

HD: Thank you so much for having me here. I do hope that your audience can take what I shared today and view their client attraction strategies with the purpose to have more clarity themselves.
