Testing the Wrong Thing: How Often to Send Emails? (And Other Dangerous Ideas)

May 27, 2022

What do you think would happen if you spent all your time...

  • Trying to come up with the perfect product name?
  • Trying to figure out what's the best time of day to send out emails?
  • Trying to find the perfect price?
  • Trying to decide if your product should have 4 modules, 8 modules, 100 pages, 5 hours, 10 hours?
  • Trying to add more content to that product before it was launched?
  • Trying to decide if you should send 1 email per day, 1 email per week, or 1 email per month?

I hate to be a broken record for the last decade, but this is how you make money on the internet...

  1. Find that overlap between: a real need people are having (and are willing to pay money for), and the perfect solution you can provide using your skillset
  2. Cut up that solution into four "parts" or modules, making sure people get real tangible results from module #1 that erases the entire cost of the course and that modules 2, 3, and 4 build on top of that
  3. Record a 1-hour video for each module, making sure to give them a goal or result after each lesson
  4. Put those inside a membership site, create a payment button so people have to pay at LEAST $97 for access, add that button to a blank web page
  5. Create a sales letter above that payment button,

632: Diving Deep Within: Stop Being a Coach Resister, Use the Socratic Method, Discover Your Aspirational Self, and Become Coachable with Melinda Kelly

April 14, 2019

Melinda Kelly wants to know: are you a "coach resister?"

You're afraid to invest the money? Don't want to give up control to someone else? Think you know better and if you tough it out, it will get better? You've tried and it didn't work, so you won't give it another shot?

Until, maybe, the hammer comes down! Your business hits rock bottom, your partner leaves you, your health deserts you, you're so miserable you're loading up on anti-depressants?

That's usually when someone gets desperate enough to hire a coach. But Melinda J. Kelly says it's a mistake to wait that long when there are so many ways for you to thrive and succeed NOW with a coach that's right for you.

But there's more to it than just hiring a coach...you have to be ready, willing and have the right mindset to make the relationship succeed...and she tells you how you can go deeply within to prepare yourself for a coaching relationship that will take you far beyond what you can do on your own.

She provides the roadmap in today's podcast episode where we discuss Finding Your Coach and Diving Deep Within.
