Nicola Prentis started off in ELT as a teacher, bouncing around the world wherever she most wanted to go at the time: Czech Republic, Turkey, Australia, Spain, Thailand. She started writing EFL materials as a way to transition into working from her sofa and settled in Spain around 2012. Once she realised she could sell ideas to magazines, she branched out into writing about travel, food, parenting, even Brxit and Love Island for publications including Cosmo, The Independent and the Wall Street Journal (OK, it was only one article in each of those!).
After a brief period of speaking at conferences, she realised she wasn't going to earn any more from writing than she had from teaching and the shine had faded from sitting at home not talking to anyone all day. At the same time, she began wondering what she could do with her savings, carefully scrimped over 20 years. The answer led her into teaching herself about investing from a starting point of utter cluelessness.
That was quickly followed by the realisation that many, many people in ELT had the same lack of knowledge about investing and that all her years of teaching and creating educational materials were about to come in handy... the result is The Chilled Investor. A beginner course on investing that can take anyone from clueless to clued up in 6 weeks.www.chilledinvestor.com to sign up to the newsletter to be the first to hear about it.

Rob Lally helps B2B consultants and service providers get more leads through LinkedIn. We sat down and had a chat about Rob's business and how best to use LinkedIn to improve your profile, build your brand, and ultimately bring in more business.
"If you are looking to grow your business with great quality leads, Rob is the man to go." - Syed Saiful Islam
"Rob is a master at driving business and thinking outside the box when devising ways of increasing sales revenue.
He is someone who you would love to have on your team and would always go above and beyond to succeed." - James Fitzpatrick
"He helped guide me and bring clarity to my situation and had some epic expert advice on how I could improve my client attraction methods." - Brendan Mcdonald
"He officially jumped on as my first client". - Sarah W - 4 days into the program .
Does any of this sound familiar?
👉 "Getting one client is like a full time job in itself"
👉 “I wanted to work for myself to have freedom, but I'm getting burned out just trying to find new clients!”
👉 I wear a thousand hats. I have tried holding workshops, presentations, emailing prospects but I just can't get clients consistently!
If so, you’ve come to the right place.
Hi I’m Rob, and I teach coaches and consultants how to get high paying clients consistently and predictably using LinkedIn without having to go through the famine and feast cycle of no clients to clients!
Imagine:
Waking up excited every SINGLE morning ready to focus on making your business better rather than finding clients.
Not having to worry about going back to the corporate rat race world because you can get clients ON DEMAND.
Getting clients on a regular basis, that pay you what you are worth.
I’m here to help you go from uncertainty to confidence, because you’ll know that with my system in place, you can get calls booked whenever YOU decide. I want to help you go from sending pitches to anyone and everyone, to have clients come to YOU as an authority of the your market. And I do this through my coaching program that will show you step by step on how to get clients predictably through LinkedIn.
Are you ready to make this happen?
👉 Here's my free training on how to fill your calendar and stand out from the noise on LinkedIn: https://roblallyconsulting.com/training
👉 Book a call with me below and I will see if you qualify for a free strategy session: https://calendly.com/roblallyconsulting/15min
