We recently connected with Selena Gibbons and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Selena, thanks for joining us today. Can you tell us about a time where you or your team really helped a customer get an amazing result?

I begin my consultation process with my client to go over her financial situation. After the consultation we set up her financial coaching sessions. My client shared her financial goals, low credit score and high interest rates on her accounts. I gave my client a financial strategy plan to increase her credit score and to pay down her debts. I advised my client to write a list of all her debts from smallest to largest, and to call her creditors to see if she qualifies to make a settlement on her collection accounts. As a result of her doing the work she was able to see her credit score increase by 70 points. My client was able to achieve a low interest rate on her car loan, pay off 3 credit cards and she was able to settle on her collection accounts. My client was very happy with the results she had achieved. She highly recommended my services to her family and friends and is continuing to work hard to reach the 800+ credit score club.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

I am Author/ Certified Master Financial Coach Selena G/ Founder & CEO of the 800+ Financial Freedom Club LLC. I became a certified financial life coach in December of 2019. I have gained a wealth of knowledge and skills over the last 20 years and have positively impacted my clients lives by gaining their trust. I hosted my first Financial Literacy Workshop December of 2019. I have had the opportunity to go into high schools and teach Financial Literacy to the youth, and travel to different cities to teach entrepreneurs about business credit.

I self-published my first book The Ultimate Guide and Tips Toward Financial Freedom in August of 2020, my 2nd book The Ultimate Guide Pathway to Financial Freedom workbook, my 3rd book Foundational steps to credit building workbook in March of 2021 and my 4th book The Ultimate Financial Planner: A 365 Day Journey to Financial Freedom in June of 2022. All the books are listed on Amazon. I launched 800+ Financial Freedom Podcast in September of 2020.

The 800+ Financial Freedom Club can help overcome financial challenges by setting up financial strategy plans to help my clients meet their financial goals. Selena is an inspirational and motivational speaker she loves to inspire and motivate change in the community. I also provide financial coaching services.

My most proud moment is when I complete my coaching session with my client and they look up at me at the end of the session and says I have Hope now, I can make it. This really makes my heart happy and remind me that I am walking in my purpose.

Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?

The most effective strategy that I have use to grow my clientele is as follows: 1. Social Medial
2. My Target audience
3. Promotional Ads
4. Understanding what makes me unique.
5. Customer Referrals
6. Being apart of a community

What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?

I had to unlearn how my parents manage their finances and the lack of talking to me about the importance of saving money for retirement. One thing to help me change my mindset about finances is my daughter. I have to be an example for her and teach her about finances to prepare her for adulthood.
