​The Deluxe Coaching Package

A two-hour consultation

Any of the following talking points can be discussed at length. This session is recorded on Zoom, so you have an archive of the coaching. Usually, about half of the talking points listed below can be covered in two hours.
  1. An in-depth analysis of your presentation and an understanding of "the code" of the industry's discretion. 
  2. Tips for being successful while working for celebrities, executives, and high-net-worth families.

  6. Insights on how to avoid the biggest submission mistakes when applying for jobs in today’s competitive market.
  7. Get honest feedback about your appearance because employers won’t give it to you straight — they just simply won’t hire you. If you land the first interview and aren't invited back for a second, then something is wrong. 
  8. Discover how employers “spy” on candidates they are considering. You may be inadvertently sabotaging your career without even knowing it (celebs and billionaires often hire investigators to check you out). 
  9. Learn how to elevate your personal brand and get "street cred" in your niche.
  10. How to contact the high net worth and Family Offices (private bankers) with tact so you don’t look desperate.
  11. How and why to customize resumes and cover letters for each job you apply to.
  12. Review of your resume and LinkedIn profile (and tips for improving them). 
  13. Help you define your “personal brand” to impress top-tier employers.
  14. Learn what behaviors private service employers are looking for in interviews. 
  15. How to follow-up without being a pest or looking desperate.
  16. Advice on how to beat out other applicants that are much more qualified than yourself.
  17. Survival techniques for the job and how to stay organized so you don’t get fired.
  18. Role-playing tips that will make you shine during the very brutal interview process.
  19. Learn about the secret "tests" and "hoop jumping" that recruiters and high-net-worth employers put you through. 
  20. What format, fonts, and paper to use for your resume so you look refined and not outdated.
  21. Overcoming the interviewer’s objections and turning perceived weaknesses into strengths.
  22. How to negotiate your salary without being confrontational and get the max.
  23. ​Understanding "combat pay" and know when and why you should get a pay bump. 
  24. How to survive the backbiting and colleague sabotage that comes with the job.
  25. ​​​Understanding the special needs of billionaires and the high net worth and customizing your approach to have your skill set fit their specific needs (and even get them to pay to relocate you).
  26. How to communicate effectively with your boss so you don’t get fired during your probationary period.
  27. Tips for bypassing gatekeepers and getting your resume directly into the hands of local celebrities and VIPs.
  28. How to identify prospective employers: In the U.S. alone, there are about 1,000 billionaires and 50,000 households with net worth between 50 and 500 million dollars. They desperately need quality people, and they don't like paying headhunters huge commissions every time they need to hire someone. ​
  29. ​Learn how to network in the “hidden job market” because about 85% of jobs with celebrities, high-net-worth families, and billionaires are never posted online or obtained through employment agencies.
  30. How to impress the interviewer without intimidating them into thinking you’re better than they are.
  31. How to sound ready to manage estates, jets, domestic staff, and yachts if you don’t have direct experience.
  32. Learn why the most qualified candidates do NOT get the job, the ones who market themselves the best do.
  33. ​How to recognize the fake job ads that many staffing agencies use and how to prevent recruiters from using you to "harvest" leads from your resume so they can land new clients — plus insights on which recruiters you should use and which ones to stay away from.
  34. Learn how to use the value proposition method to "close the deal" and get them to hire you.
  35. How to answer, "Why should I hire you?" — Learn to be authentic instead of opportunistic.
  36. Understand the mindset of VIPs and learn how to get into their heads so they trust you. Positioning and messaging are VERY important. 
  37. ​How to "read between the lines" with private service and family office job descriptions, and what questions you should be asking employers in the job interview (the wrong questions will put you out of the running).
  38. How to become invaluable to affluent employers and position yourself to "eclipse" the competition. 
  39. How to tactfully and diplomatically say "no" to wealthy employers who ask you to "cross the line."

  42. Get insider tips about signing an NDA: Non-Disclosure Agreement and know what your rights are. 
  43. Why you should never sign an "extreme NDA," which essentially is a "gag order" (it's a career ender). 
  44. Learn which background checks employers are allowed to do and why: criminal check, driving record review, credit history, etc. 
  45. What to do if the VIP asks you to work illegally as an "independent contractor" and take cash payments under the table (it's more common than you think). 
  46. How to hold your boss accountable without being confrontational, so you don't have to take the blame for things that aren't your fault (or get tricked into doing something unethical). 
  47. Learn what non-negotiables MUST be in your employment contract — The how and why of protecting your interests to prevent contract oversights from coming back to haunt you later. 
  48. How to avoid becoming a "sacrificial lamb" when co-workers try to set you up to take the fall for something bad that happened. 
  49. Learn headhunter secrets about the selection process that goes beyond evaluating hard skills, soft skills, and personality traits (there are no "innocent" questions in a job interview, especially from celebrities and billionaires).
  50. No questions or topics are off-limits (a “no holds barred” session with tried-and-true information).​​
Note that this package does NOT come with a resume rewrite, just notes on your current resume and LinkedIn profile, and the candidate makes the changes. Brian will include a professional resume template that he designed, and if you want him to rewrite your resume, please read on.
