Laurie Delk - author, speaker, coach, trainer

Laurie's life journey is a testament to unwavering faith, entrepreneurial spirit, and the transformative power of resilience. Rooted in a lifelong foundation of Christian values, instilled from her upbringing and a pivotal move from Texas to Middle Tennessee in 1986, Laurie embarked on a path marked by both professional achievement and personal devotion.

In 1993, driven by a profound desire to nurture her growing family, Laurie made a courageous decision to transition from a decade-long, successful career as an accountant at a Fortune 500 company. This pivotal moment, coinciding with her husband's aspiration to pursue his calling in law enforcement, became a catalyst for a life dedicated to purpose and service. Through prayerful consideration, they embraced both paths, demonstrating a commitment to faith-led action.

God has uniquely privileged Laurie to serve Him in numerous capacities over the past few decades. Her entrepreneurial journey began with the inception of her web & graphics, branding, marketing, and design company. Recognizing her talents as gifts to be shared, she pledged to utilize her skills for divine purpose. This commitment manifested in the creation of over a thousand websites, marketing materials, training platforms, and courses for pastors, churches, evangelists, missionaries, colleges, and a diverse range of business clients. Her expertise extended to comprehensive rebranding initiatives, empowering organizations to articulate their vision with clarity and impact.

Beyond her business acumen, Laurie is a prolific author, having penned the best-selling books "Keep Those Clients" and "We All Have Choices," and co-founded the transformative "Gratitude Girls - 100 Day Gratitude Journal Challenge." She has also contributed her insights to three additional publications. As a sought-after motivational speaker and corporate sales trainer, Laurie inspires audiences with her authentic voice and empowering message, often called upon for special speaking engagements around the world. Her dedication to education is further evidenced by her five years of teaching at her children's Christian school and her subsequent decision to homeschool them, allowing her to balance her growing speaking career with her commitment to family.

Her mission to empower women to embrace their God-given potential has taken her across the globe, where she shares her wisdom and encouragement with diverse audiences. Laurie's life, however, has not been without profound challenges. In 2013, she experienced the devastating loss of her children's father in a tragic accident, navigating the complexities of grief while raising her four children, then aged 25, 18, 16, and 12.

Believing in God's guidance for her life, Laurie remarried in April 2020 to Kevin Radecki, following their meeting in December 2019. Laurie prayed for exactly what she wanted in a husband and God showed Himself strong in giving her more than she asked in a God-fearing and God-loving husband.

Laurie's unique experiences over the past few decades provide special insight and encouragement for those who take her courses. Her story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the transformative power of faith, and the profound impact of living a life dedicated to purpose and service. Her journey inspires others to embrace their own unique paths, to overcome adversity with grace, and to live with unwavering gratitude and purpose.

    Look, if your 1st quarter of 2022 wasn’t quite what you expected, then set an intention for the 2nd quarter!

     

    A great intention to set would be for you to be uniquely different from your competition! 

     

    First, we know that every customer who comes to our business is uniquely different.

     

    Uniquely different in reasons why they chose your:

     

    1. Service
    2. Product
    3. Brand

     

    This uniqueness comes down to the know, like, and trust value they have for you.

     

    Now is the time for you to be uniquely different from your competition.

     

    By being uniquely different in your customers’ eyes, you will increase:

    3. Organic referrals

     

    Most importantly, you strengthen customer relationships, ultimately boosting the know, like, and trust value and your bottom line!

     

     

    To strengthen customer relations, we must see our customers for who they are and celebrate them as people, not just transactions.

     

    We can celebrate customers quickly and cost-effectively and make a powerful impact with greeting cards!

    Yes, I said greeting cards 🙂

     

    Here are 5 ways to celebrate customers with greeting cards:

     

    1. Birthday: The single most important date to them as a person.
    2. Holiday:  Showing you care to take the time to show appreciation.
    3. Thank you:  Acknowledging that you are grateful for their business.
    4. Just because:  An unexpected, heartfelt message to remind them you see them.

How to Increase Organic Referrals Using Vibrant Flower Power

Spring is in the air!

 

As we know, the wonder of “April showers, bring May flowers.” 

 

Spring is always a great time to send a pick-me-up to brighten someone’s day and stay top-of-mind with your customers!

 

Indeed, when it comes to finding pick-me-ups, flowers tend to be front and center, regardless of who you are, where you live, or what season you’re experiencing.

 

Studies show that staring at the vibrant, colorful blooms is known to improve overall being and reduce feelings of:

 

  1. Depression
  2. Anxiety

 

Therefore fostering:

 

  1. Relaxation 
  2. Happier mood
  3. Focus
  4. Overall wellbeing

 

Now, I’m not saying you need to send real flowers to your customers and prospects; that could get out of hand quickly, not to mention expensive!

 

I ask you to think outside the ‘FLOWER BOX’ and into the ‘MAILBOX.’

 

Think greeting cards or postcards!

 

Here’s why:

 

  1. Cards are less expensive than flowers
  2. Flowers wither and get thrown away
  3. Cards remain on the recipients’ desk
  4. It keeps you top of mind
  5. Organic referrals increase

 

Wouldn’t you agree that along with a heartfelt message, brightly colored floral greeting cards/postcards are a great way to inspire and uplift to stay top of mind?

 

Perhaps just as important, your day will also be uplifted, giving you an extra spring in your step!

 

I can help make it easy and fun! 

 

Spring into action today and send a floral greeting card or postcard with vibrant colors to brighten your customers’ day!

Look, your most precious assets in business are your customers, and if you’re not making them feel special, your competition is!

4 Types of LUCK in Business Influenced by MINDSET!

Top ‘o the morning! 🙂 

I hope you had a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day!

Here’s wishing you much luck and happiness throughout the next year.



I’m curious…..do you consider yourself lucky when it comes to business?

I’m not talking about the leprechaun and wearing green kinda lucky, LOL.

I’m talking about LUCK of:

  1. Insight (recognizing good fortune and opportunities)
  2. Hustle (when taking action and always moving forward)
  3. Expectation (pure chance through positivity and intuition)
  4. Creativity (doing something different when targeting opportunities)

Indeed, these four types of LUCK play a role in business success!

How do you ask?

“Mindset”

Those who are in the mindset of considering themselves “LUCKY” are more apt to notice business opportunities.

First and foremost, being in the mindset habit of gratitude and recognizing present treasures is a great place to start and can undeniably be a very effective way to create Luck.  

With that said, here are five mindset principles that can create Luck for you and your business:

  1. Having a positive belief system.
  2. Acting on your inner promptings.
  3. Showing resilience in attitude.
  4. Catching sight of opportunities.
  5. Staying in action.

Being in the habit of these five mindset principles increases the odds of business luck by helping you tap into positive and intuitive thinking.


As my favorite quote for Seneca says….

“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” – Seneca

Wishing you much luck,

Laurie Delk Radecki

P.S. Get in the mindset habit of acting on your inner promptings:

Who’s the LUCKY person who needs to hear from you?

Reach out to them and let them know you care….through a text, phone call or make it tangilbe through a greeting card or postcard!

Speaking of postcards, have you checked out our unlimited postcard program yet?

    How to Win Over the Gatekeeper With an Unforgettable Experience

    Have you ever experienced difficulty getting past the gatekeeper to meet with the decision-maker?

     

    Often, the gatekeeper has many questions that decipher if you will be allowed through to the person who makes the decisions.

     

    Questions from the gatekeeper can ultimately lead to:  

     

    • Product pitching 
    • Sales gibberish 
    • Convincing
    • Sales breath

     

     Which can sometimes leave you sounding desperate!

     

    Stop doing that!

     

    Start thinking RELATIONAL EXPERIENCE!

     

    Successful salespeople understand that the key to getting past the gatekeeper is establishing:

     

    1. Trust
    2. Value
    3. Credibility
    4. Visibility
    5. Relationships

     

    Moreover, you can establish all the above by doubling down on building relationships.

     

    Differentiate how you show up with these five suggestions:

     

    1. Purposeful listening 
    2. Showing integrity
    3. Adding a personal touch 
    4. Scrapping small talk
    5. Exhibiting manners
    Click here for more info

     

    Skills 1, 2, 4 & 5 are habit-forming skills that need to be developed personally. (Be sure to check out the link I dropped below at the end of this email to see my favorite resource for personal development.)

     

    Meanwhile, today’s goal is the most impactful, #3, adding a “personal touch experience.” 

     

    Experience is the keyword here!

     

    Adding a “personal touch experience” will help you and your brand become unforgettable and move the gatekeeper and decision-makers into taking action.

    Now is the time to stand out, BE EXPERIENCED, and be heard in this noisy world. 

     

    Let’s do it together,

     

    P.S. If you’re looking for a way to start a personal development plan, here is my favorite, “Prompting U”.
