Most people aren't lacking opportunities. They’re lacking the courage to ask. There are checks sitting in your inbox, your network, and your "someday" ideas. They are just waiting for you to claim them. Not beg. Not wait. Not overthink. Just ask. 👏🏽 That is exactly the purpose of the April Cash Sprint. So to all my #NorthCarolina folks, from Murphy to Manteo and everywhere in between... This isn't another "learn and leave" workshop. This is a high-intensity, take-action, build-momentum experience. Here is the reality: You finally send that email you’ve been sitting on. You pitch your workshop, your service, or your framework. You follow up (even when it feels uncomfortable). Result: You see revenue generated from your courage. That’s the energy we’re bringing into April. The Goal: To get you PAID by turning your skills and connections into real opportunities—fast. We aren't looking for perfect pitches or over-polished proposals. We are looking for Momentum. What you’ll actually do: Make bold, aligned pitches. Reach out to real people (no more "ghost" networking). Track your asks and celebrate the wins. Trade your hesitation for execution. And the best part? You won’t be doing it alone. Who this is for: If you’ve ever said: "I need more income, but I don't know where to start." "I have ideas, I just haven't put them out there yet." "I know people... I just haven't asked." This is your moment. The Move: Don’t sit on this. Don’t “circle back.” Don’t “think about it.” Commit right now: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSflzpDq0O34wc1R5Hk4LesbpRT0x2LlJi95AJi6N9dOc4N1wA/viewform April is your Ask Season. The difference between people who are getting paid and people who are waiting… …is usually just one bold ask. Let’s go get it. 💰

Hi, I'm working on a mailer to college administrators, student life and affairs directors, and directors of specialized programs like TRiO. Do you mind providing feedback? Thanks! Dear [Name], Across campuses nationwide, students demonstrate strong academic potential but often lack the confidence, communication skills, and real-world readiness needed to thrive in today’s workforce. Jackie, a student in a highly demanding health program, illustrates this challenge. She initially struggled with overwhelm, self-doubt, and performance anxiety. Through strategic coaching and structured skill development, she reframed her study approach, strengthened her mindset, and persisted through unexpected barriers. She completed her program successfully, secured a hospital position, increased her earning potential, and discovered new pathways for advancement. Her transformation reflects what becomes possible when students receive intentional, targeted support. Beyond the Box Leadership & Career Lab partners with institutions to create these outcomes at scale. The Career Readiness Training Program is a high-impact, experiential learning experience that equips students to: Communicate strengths with clarity and professionalism Navigate conflict and workplace dynamics with emotional intelligence Build confidence through real-world practice and scenario-based training Strengthen resilience, decision-making, and self-awareness Prepare intentionally for internships, interviews, and leadership roles The program’s impact extends across unique student journeys. For example, Natalie, who was uncertain about her academic and career direction, gained clarity and confidence through guided strengths exploration and strategic networking support. She emerged from the experience energized, aligned with her goals, and excited about her next steps. Stories like hers reflect the type of transformation institutions seek to cultivate — and students urgently need. Beyond the Box would welcome the opportunity to partner with your institution to deliver this level of development and readiness for your students. Enclosed is a one-page overview and an article highlighting the growing gap between student confidence and employer expectations — a gap this program is specifically designed to bridge.

CH1; page 39: "When you believe in your offer and see sales as an act of service, you help clients reach their goals. You change their lives in ways you might never fully understand." — Ashley N. Kirkwood, Millions from the Stage "Selling isn't about taking. It's about giving." — Ashley N. Kirkwood, Millions from the Stage My Thoughts: When I read that, this was my thought... As an advocate, I learned to lead with a heart of service—to be the voice for the voiceless. This quote reminds me that selling, when done with integrity, yes, isn’t about taking. It’s about giving value, empowerment, and transformation. Question: What does “sales as an act of service” mean to you?🤔
