Onboarding is a term that's thrown around quite often and it has a few different meanings. In the context of this show I'm referring to when a client becomes a client, how are you bringing them into your world.

What sort of process to you have that helps that client understand what this engagement is going to look like.

When you open up any box, there's a quick start guide right?

That's what you have to have for your clients.

A263 - How to onboard a new client?

As we embark on the second year of Ask Rezzz, the format will change up slightly.The reason for this is so that you can take action. I'm all about that action taking as you know. Having a show each and every single day without a doubt can be overwhelming. You may already have a backlog of shows that you want to listen to. Maybe there's a bunch that you don't have any interest in hearing as well.With that, the new format will be this.Every Friday, you'll be a fly on the wall for a one-on-one coaching session with someone. I will have a conversation with someone who's <a href="https://rezzz.com/to-be-on-the-show/">applied to be on the show</a>. They have a specific problem or situation that they want to get some help on.The objective is for you to hear what they are going through and maybe it'll help you too if you are in a similar situation. As the saying goes "a rising tide raises all boats."The big benefit of this is you, the audience. You as a Feaster can help and support them through offering encouragement, advice, and accountability. You may even want to work with them if you have such a need.If you want to be on the show, it's easy, just <a href="https://rezzz.com/to-be-on-the-show/">apply here</a>.Every Tuesday there will be an actionable show. It will either be what you are familiar with already from the previous 261 episodes where I answer a question. Or I'm going to be introducing a resource or strategy that you can walk away from the show and put right in your business.For example, how to use Advanced Search on Twitter to find local clients to work with.Another example could be that I bring on a lawyer to the show to talk about contracts.Doesn't mean that you may not see the podcast show up in your podcatcher on other days, but this is what I'm committing to you today and what you can expect from the show.I want to make Ask Rezzz as actionable and valuable to you as possible.

A celebration is in order! One full year, each and every day, I've answered a question you asked. Today for this special milestone episode, I invited Chris onto the show to throw his questions at me on your behalf.

I'll be honest, I really had no idea what Chris was going to ask me. He could've asked me anything at all. The only constraint was to stay within a certain time, the rest was up to him. I think you'll agree though, that he did an awesome job.

A260 - How to unexpectedly delight clients?

<a href="https://twitter.com/janelleallen">Janelle Allen</a> of <a href="http://zencourses.co">zencourses.co</a> is an Instructional Designer who specialized in custom online course that improve student results invited me to her podcast.I thought that I'd share an answer to a question that she asked me on the show.------------------- 👉 For full show notes to this episode &amp; more resources for you. -------------------She asks all her guests this question."The zombie apocalypse has hit. You have 6 minutes to grab 3 essential items and your family is fine. What do you grab? As someone who's watched many zombie movies from a very young age all the way to today with The Walking Dead, this was a welcomed and fun question.Since I've actually thought about this over the years I had my answer at the ready.My winter coat, a broom, and my skis.A broom because you can carve the handle into a point and use it to defend yourself with some level of distance.That's the obvious item in this list.Like Janelle, you may be scratching your head a bit at the winter coat and skis.It's simple, first of all, there's never been a movie, tv show, or anything zombie related where it's taking place in the snow.So I'm going north when the zombie apocalypse hits.If you are thinking, "Jason, but you are basing your logic off of movies." Of course, I am, this whole scenario is predicated on a hypothetical movie scenario.But I'm open to the conversation, so let's look at it this way.Zombies aren't exactly fleet of foot. They often get caught up on branches, stuck in mud, and even caught up on fences.It stands to reason that in waist deep snow, they wouldn't fare too well either.Additionally, snowy regions tend to be less populated which reduces the number of potential zombies.If I can find a mountainous area, then there could be a natural way in which to protect myself and family as well.I pose this question to you. If your family is good, and you have 6 minutes to grab 3 items in the zombie apocalypse, what would you grab? Shoot me a tweet and let me know.If you are wondering how all this relates to your business, it doesn't. I just though that I would have some fun today in answering an oddball question so that you can maybe get a glimpse into other parts of my head.If you absolutely need it to relate to business, the one thing I can say is to put yourself in a position where the odds swing in your favor.

What do you grab?&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;As someone who's watched many zombie movies from a very young age all the way to today with The Walking Dead, this was a welcomed and fun question.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since I've actually thought about this over the years I had my answer at the ready.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My winter coat, a broom, and my skis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A broom because you can carve the handle into a point and use it to defend yourself with some level of distance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That's the obvious item in this list.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Like Janelle, you may be scratching your head a bit at the winter coat and skis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's simple, first of all, there's never been a movie, tv show, or anything zombie related where it's taking place in the snow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So I'm going north when the zombie apocalypse hits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are thinking, "Jason, but you are basing your logic off of movies." Of course, I am, this whole scenario is predicated on a hypothetical movie scenario.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But I'm open to the conversation, so let's look at it this way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Zombies aren't exactly fleet of foot. They often get caught up on branches, stuck in mud, and even caught up on fences.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It stands to reason that in waist deep snow, they wouldn't fare too well either.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additionally, snowy regions tend to be less populated which reduces the number of potential zombies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If I can find a mountainous area, then there could be a natural way in which to protect myself and family as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I pose this question to you. If your family is good, and you have 6 minutes to grab 3 items in the zombie apocalypse, what would you grab? Shoot me a tweet and let me know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are wondering how all this relates to your business, it doesn't. I just though that I would have some fun today in answering an oddball question so that you can maybe get a glimpse into other parts of my head.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you absolutely need it to relate to business, the one thing I can say is to put yourself in a position where the odds swing in your favor.&lt;/p&gt;
