Nurture Sequence

We all know that the #1 goal of any product creator should be building an email list. But here’s the mistake I see too many entrepreneurs make: They spend ton of time perfecting their lead generation efforts — developing an offer, driving traffic and acquiring leads. The leads start trickling in…but those names just sit there on that list, ignored, until the product is ready to launch. Finally, they hit publish and launch the product — but the only thing they hear is crickets. What went wrong? Your prospects joined your list to learn more from you. But they didn’t.

Attract your ideal clients

One of the common problems I see time and time again — and I’ve been guilty of it many times myself — is that coaches and business owners spend every breath talking about their list of services, their pricing, their benefits and features. Every instance of marketing communication, online and off, is packed with detail about their products and/or services and what they do for a living. Here’s the problem. Nobody cares. This is the wrong approach, because no one is ever in the market to buy your “offer”. It doesn’t matter what you sell. If you think people want Continue Reading →

How to setup and deliver your content upgrades

Last week I showed you how to get 1000 subscribers by creating Unique lead magnets called “content upgrades” for each of your blog posts. The single biggest hurdle that I faced when starting was knowing how to wire all of the different components together. Without a plan, it became a mess very quickly. I was using MailChimp, but after creating post specific lead magnets, I realized I had created a TON of extra work for myself! I had multiple lists for multiple lead magnets and, of course, duplicate subscribers all over the place. Figuring out the technology part of it was a massive Continue Reading →

Find your ideal buyers

There are TOO Many people who think if they just create a great product, or offer a great service, then it will just sell itself. Here’s the reality: Just because you’re excited about your product or service, that excitement doesn’t mean it’ll sell like hotcakes. Look, you might be uber-passionate about your area of business.

Because of that, it’s critical that you sell what the market wants — not what you want to sell them, not what you think they Continue Reading →
