Episode 238: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

Many coaches and course creators quit their 9-to-5 the moment their business has a few good months, only to watch revenue dip, savings drain, and stress take over. Others stay stuck, convinced that more time is the only thing standing between them and success. Either way, the business runs them.

In this episode, we speak with Steve Rolle, author of The Future You Choose, and talk about the brutal reality of making the transition from 9 to 5 job to full time entrepreneur. He teaches us how to tell when your business is truly ready to support you. You’ll discover the hidden levers behind consistent revenue, why time is rarely the real bottleneck, and the costly savings mistake that sinks many new entrepreneurs.

About Steve Rolle: Steve is an entrepreneur, investor, host of the Rolle With Steve Podcast, and author of The Future You Choose. Raised in a low-income household in Washington, D.C., he started small side businesses while serving full time in the U.S. Army. Those early experiments grew into multiple companies that have generated more than $100 million in combined sales across e-commerce, manufacturing, and distribution.

Over two decades, Steve has launched, scaled, and exited businesses built to run without the founder in the day-to-day. Today he helps people spot overlooked opportunities, turn side hustles into real businesses, and build lasting financial and time freedom.

How Digital PR Gets You Ranked Above Your Competition in Google and AI Search - with Aashish Khakhar

Tue, 22 Sep 2026 06:00:00 -0400

Episode 237: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

Most SEO advice still treats backlinks like the finish line - but with AI engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity now reshaping how customers find businesses, chasing links the old way is leaving course creators, coaches, and agency owners invisible where it counts.

In this episode, Aashish Khakhar teaches us how to earn the kind of visibility that both Google and AI tools actually reward. He breaks down why "unlinked mentions" can matter as much as backlinks, how a lesser-known piece of website code connects your brand's authority across the web, and the outreach strategy that's replaced pay-for-link tactics as the real differentiator — plus how to turn a single idea into ongoing coverage instead of a one-and-done win.

About Aashish Khakhar: Aashish brings over a decade of experience in SEO, digital strategy, and e-commerce growth, helping brands drive organic traffic, increase revenue, and optimize digital performance. His work has delivered results such as a 1,500% increase in website traffic, a 33% lift in conversions, and 30% sales growth across e-commerce platforms including Amazon, Noon, Carrefour, and WooCommerce. He has also automated SEO workflows using Python, cutting manual work by 50%.

A recognized leader in digital PR, Aashish has secured 35+ media placements on outlets like Yahoo, MSN, and NASDAQ, along with coverage on Health.com, Healthline.com, and Shape.com — all without paid sponsorships. His core expertise spans technical SEO, link building, conversion rate optimization, and sales funnel development, using tools like Google Analytics, SEMrush, and Ahrefs to stay ahead of the latest trends in AI, automation, and search

What to Do When Your Leads Aren’t Buying with Bradley Rausch

Episode 236: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

You've finally cracked lead generation - the opt-ins are rolling in - but sales are stuck at zero. If you're generating leads without converting them, chances are you're stopping the "selling" the moment someone joins your list, and once you stop, it's brutally hard to start again.

In this episode, Bradley Rausch teaches us how to turn cold leads into buyers (and buyers into repeat buyers) by staying in constant "selling mode" throughout the entire client journey. He breaks down the emotional stages every new lead and client moves through, why the first 24-72 hours determine whether someone ever buys again, and the surprisingly simple move most coaches skip that builds massive loyalty fast. He also shares exactly when in a client's journey to introduce an upsell—and why timing it wrong is costing you serious revenue.

About Bradley Rausch: Bradley is an advisor and “backend profit” partner for founder-led coaching and service-based businesses. He’s helped dozens of founders turn chaotic growth into durable, higher-margin revenue without sacrificing their values.

Episode 234: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

Manual LinkedIn outreach might get you a trickle of leads, but scaling it consistently - without burning your network or getting flagged - is another story entirely. Most business owners send the wrong messages to the wrong people, then give up after one follow-up, leaving real revenue on the table.

In this episode, Toby Blatchford Tagg teaches us how to turn LinkedIn into a predictable lead-generation machine. He breaks down the data mistakes that quietly sabotage outreach campaigns, the follow-up sequence most people get wrong, and where AI genuinely helps (and where it can get your profile flagged).

About Toby Blatchford-Tagg: Toby Blatchford-Tagg is the Managing Director of The Lead Lab, where he helps businesses across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia fill their calendars with qualified meetings through bespoke LinkedIn DM campaigns at scale. He built the company around one core promise: connecting businesses with qualified leads who are actually ready to buy, combining verified data, powerful digital platforms, and experienced content writers to turn LinkedIn from a doomscrolling feed into a sales engine. The approach has delivered up to 40x ROI for long-standing clients and 500+ leads generated monthly.

Toby's background spans sales, email marketing, market research, and even AI calling before he turned his focus to LinkedIn outreach over the past decade. He's also invested in a range of startups spanning recruitment, entertainment, and personal care. That breadth of experience makes him a sought-after voice on sales, modern outreach strategy, the future of LinkedIn prospecting, and the difference between busywork and real appointment setting — helping both individuals and businesses build a more predictable pipeline through data, targeting, and outreach discipline.

If you're a coach, course creator, or agency owner, chances are you're stuck explaining your business in complicated, jargon-heavy language that leaves potential clients confused instead of convinced - and confused people don't buy. Worse, when your message doesn't stick, you're forgettable, and referrals never happen.

In this episode, Sharlene Lynch teaches us how to turn your "messy brilliance" into simple, branded visual frameworks that make your offer instantly clear and memorable. We dig into why visuals dramatically outperform words for retention, how to build a client journey that lets people self-select where they fit, and why this approach can even become a trademarkable, sellable asset in your business.

Episode 232: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

AI tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews now decide which businesses get recommended, and which get filtered out before a customer ever sees them. If your brand's online reputation isn't dialed in, you could be invisible in the answers AI gives your future clients, no matter how good your product is.

In this episode, Nick Baxter and Robert Battle of QCK teach us how to get AI to recommend your business over the competition. They break down what's really different between SEO, AEO, and GEO, why reviews now matter more than keywords, and a strategy most owners never check.

Episode 231: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

Most business owners walk into networking events ready to pitch within the first two minutes, then wonder why nobody buys and nobody remembers them. That habit kills the referral partnerships and strategic relationships that actually move a digital business forward.

In this episode, Barry Bradham teaches us how to turn strangers into long-term collaborators. He shares what to say instead of pitching, how to build a follow-up system so new contacts don't go cold, and an unconventional icebreaker that gets even hard-to-reach decision-makers to take your call.

About Barry Bradham: Barry Bradham is an entrepreneur, systems builder, automation strategist, and business mentor who helps business owners simplify operations, improve client experience, and scale with clarity. He is the founder of several ventures at the intersection of marketing, technology, automation, and AI, including Surfline Media, Metaverse Digital, DigiLink, Street Beat Promo, OneFlow, and Wrrkflo — platforms that help agencies and service-based businesses organize client requests, communication, and fulfillment, including through white-labeled client portals.

Beyond his companies, Barry is passionate about relationship-driven growth. As a Regional Director with M3 Linked across California, Florida, and Greater Houston, he connects entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals around collaboration, referrals, and leadership.

What to Do When Your Leads Aren’t Buying with Lee Thompson

Tue, 04 Aug 2026 06:00:00 -0400

Episode 230: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

Most business owners assume that once someone clicks their ad or social media post, the hard part is over. But traffic without the right system behind it just leaks money, leads go cold, and bookings never happen even when the clicks look great.

In this episode, Lee Thompson teaches us how to close that gap. He breaks down why niching down changes everything about who converts, what actually belongs on the page people land on, and the follow-up habits that separate businesses that book calls from ones that just collect leads. If your marketing is getting clicks but not customers, this one's for you.

About Lee Thompson: Lee is the founder of ClickSense, where she helps wellness businesses turn online attention into paying clients and predictable revenue. After years in web and SEO, he noticed the same pattern across businesses: plenty of traffic and leads, but inconsistent revenue. That gap between clicks and customers became her focus.

Rather than chasing more traffic, Lee zeroes in on what happens after someone finds a business: conversion, follow-up, and retention, where most real growth (and lost revenue) actually happens. He keeps things practical and honest, breaking down why typical marketing advice falls short for small businesses and what actually drives consistent growth.

Most coaches, consultants, and agency owners get booked on podcasts, say all the right things, and still walk away with no leads or sales - so they blame the show instead of their strategy.

In this episode, Justin Cross teaches us how to turn podcast appearances into real revenue. He unpacks the one thing missing from most guest pitches, the myth keeping founders stuck on the wrong podcasts, and the make-or-break moment most guests get wrong.

Episode 228: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

Most coaches hit a ceiling and assume it's their offer, their ads, or their niche. Kamy Moussavi hit that same ceiling building a children's health coaching business — and the real problems turned out to be somewhere he wasn't even looking.

In this episode, Kamy shares what was actually capping his growth, what almost made his messaging invisible in a crowded market, and the moment he realized the person selling his program mattered more than the program itself. If you're a coach, course creator, or agency owner stuck below seven figures, this episode names the exact problems standing in your way.

About Kamy Moussavi: Kamy is the founder of Step Together, a family-centered program focused on emotional regulation, healthy habits, and long-term family wellbeing. His work helps parents better understand behaviors connected to ADHD, impulsivity, emotional eating, and stress. Through Step Together, he works with families to create supportive environments, healthier food habits, and sustainable routines that reduce chaos and improve regulation at home. Kamy’s approach focuses on behavior patterns, family systems, and the connection between environment and health rather than quick fixes or restrictive dieting. He is passionate about helping families build lifelong habits through practical, realistic changes that work in everyday life. His mission is to help children and parents create healthier, more connected lives from the inside out.

Your customers are now asking ChatGPT and Claude for recommendations before they type into Google — and if your brand doesn't show up, you lose the sale before you knew you were in the running. Even businesses with a decade of strong SEO are getting outranked by newer competitors.

In this episode, Jenna Hannon teaches us how to fix that: why your website, not Reddit or LinkedIn hacks, is the real foundation AI models learn from, how to find the questions customers are asking, why clean structure beats long-form content, and which off-page signals actually move the needle.

About Jenna Hannon: Jenna is the founder and CEO of Hatter, an AI search agency that combines software and expert service to help brands get found inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google's AI Overviews.

Paid ads look simple — flip a switch and watch the leads roll in. But most coaches and course creators run ads without the foundation that actually makes them work, and end up burning cash on traffic that never turns into customers (or worse, getting their ad account shut down entirely).

In this episode, Josh Sprague — who's built and scaled three different companies using paid ads — breaks down exactly what has to be in place before you ever hit publish. If your ads have underperformed and you can't quite figure out why, this conversation will show you what you've been missing.

About Josh Sprague: Josh builds consumer brands from the ground up — product development, supply chain, brand strategy, and all the unglamorous work in between. Orange Mud started in his garage and grew into gear trusted by endurance athletes worldwide. Seven Clay outfits brands with custom apparel worth wearing. Anvil & Acre helps manufacturers grow without the guesswork.

Roadmap to Financial Freedom When You Have No Business Experience with Daman Grewal

Episode 225: Need more Leads and Traffic in your business? This will help: https://join.digitaltrailblazer.com/visibility-lab

Most coaches, course creators, and agency owners stall out by hopping from tactic to tactic—chasing webinars, ads, and funnels while comparing themselves to people who are years ahead. The result? Wasted time, wasted money, and a business that never gains real traction.

In this episode, Daman Grewal teaches us how to break that cycle by building a clear roadmap before chasing strategies, revealing the real bottlenecks new entrepreneurs have to overcome, understanding the core parts of your business before outsourcing them, and approaching brand-building as a long game that only pays off with consistent reps.

About Daman Grewal: Daman is a Canadian transportation and logistics entrepreneur and co-founder of LogisticsSales.com, a free global educational platform teaching practical sales, logistics, and entrepreneurship skills to students worldwide. Raised in a single-parent household with limited means, he entered the transportation industry at 19 while saving for school. Hired as an office employee, he soon found himself building safety programs, training over 100 staff, and helping restore a company's safety rating with the U.S. Department of Transportation. When he asked for a raise, he was told he'd likely never work in the industry again.

That moment became a turning point. Daman went on to build cross-border transportation businesses recognized in the Profit 500 and Growth 500, and today he shares lessons from his entrepreneurial journey while connecting students and small businesses around the world through education, mentorship, and opportunity.

Many coaches and course creators leave money on the table by relying only on one-to-one or one-to-many delivery, missing out on a scalable revenue stream that turns their expertise into a brand-extending asset.

In this episode, Amanda Goldman-Petrie teaches us how to package what you do into certifications and licensing offers—no accreditation or legal permission required. She breaks down the difference between certifying people versus licensing your materials, why a signature methodology makes your offer harder to copy, how to price based on time investment and IP value, and when contracts (versus simple terms of purchase) are needed to protect yourself.

About Amanda Goldman-Petrie: Amanda, also known as “AGP”, is a survivor of poverty, child abuse, teen pregnancy, and two different experiences of near death. As a valedictorian, winner of congressional nominations, graduate of Johns Hopkins University with 5 degrees, and placement in the 99th percentile of the LSAT, she is an academic genius.

Most online business owners are barely scratching the surface with AI — copy-pasting prompts and hoping for magic — while their competitors are building automated workflows that do the heavy lifting.

Without strong testimonials and case studies, online business owners are forced to rely solely on their own claims to make sales — a much harder and slower path to conversions, especially with higher-ticket offers.

In this episode, Preston Zeller teaches us how to build a powerful library of social proof by conducting structured video interviews with past clients, how to reach out in a personalized way that gets a "yes," the three types of testimonials and which ones actually move buyers, and how to extract compelling before-and-after stories even when results are hard to quantify.

About Preston Zeller: Preston is a faith-tech founder, growth executive, documentary filmmaker, and abstract artist with 15 years of experience scaling companies from $25M to $300M ARR.

How to Run Paid Ads for High Ticket Coaching with Paul Meldrum

Tue, 26 May 2026 06:00:00 -0400

Episode 220: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

Running paid ads without a profitable funnel structure is one of the fastest ways to burn through your budget — leaving coaches, course creators, and agency owners frustrated with little to show for it. Without the right offer architecture and ad strategy, most business owners either lose money on ads or attract low-quality leads that never convert to high-ticket clients.

In this episode, Paul Meldrum teaches us how to build a self-liquidating funnel where your leads essentially pay for themselves.

Episode 219: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

AI is fundamentally changing how people find information online — and if you're relying on Google search traffic or organic content to drive leads, you've likely already felt the impact.

For coaches, course creators, and agency owners, this shift isn't just an algorithm update; it's a complete disruption to the visibility strategies that have worked for years.

In this episode, Tim Woda teaches us how to adapt and stay profitable, including why building a recognizable brand makes you more likely to appear in AI-generated responses, how platforms like YouTube and Reddit represent overlooked opportunities for discovery, and why moving toward high-ticket offers can dramatically reduce your dependence on traffic volume — and the stress that comes with it.

About Tim Woda: Tim is a digital strategist, entrepreneur, and growth architect who helps businesses win when the rules change. As Founder and CEO of White Peak, he builds scalable marketing systems that turn underperforming traffic into profitable growth, even as AI reshapes search and ad costs rise.

With 25+ years in marketing and growth leadership, Tim has helped lead companies through major disruption eras, including the dot-com bust, the 2008 recession, and the 2020 COVID crash. He brings additional startup experience from BuySafe, uKnow.com, and Channel IQ.

PDF lead magnets are a simple and easy way to grow your email list — BUT, these generic downloads also tend to attract low-intent leads who never open the email, let alone book a call. The result?

Most online business owners spend hours building a website — perfecting logos, colors, and copy — only to get zero leads or clients from it. Without the right structure and messaging, your website is just an expensive digital brochure that costs you sales every day.

Many online coaches, course creators, and digital educators are stuck charging low prices — not because their offer lacks value, but because they don't know how to position and sell to premium buyers. This keeps them overworked, under-earning, and unable to scale no matter how hard they hustle.

In this episode, Alex Nghiem teaches us how to raise your prices and attract high-ticket clients — even if you're currently struggling to sell at lower price points.

Most online business owners start out by marketing to their warm audience… their existing network, warm referral, etc. — but when that well runs dry, they take the same messaging to a cold audience and wonder why sales tank.

In this episode, Jeff Wenberg teaches us how to craft a pitch that converts complete strangers — without changing a single thing about your offer. He breaks down why cold audiences respond differently, what your messaging must do to replace borrowed trust, and how to position yourself as the go-to authority before you ever make the ask.

He’s led marketing at high-growth companies like Leadpages, Zipify Apps, and Salesmsg, where he helped drive customer acquisition, scale campaigns, and develop offer positioning that consistently converted.

Most online business owners are creating content and wondering why it isn't converting — the problem isn't your offer, it's that your audience doesn't know you well enough to trust you yet. Inconsistent, low-volume content leaves money on the table and hands your potential clients over to competitors who show up more often.

In this episode, Jake Isham teaches us how to build true omnipresence — the kind that turns cold strangers into ready-to-buy clients. He breaks down how to choose the right content formats, why views are a vanity metric that could be misleading you, and the compounding effect that makes your brand impossible to ignore over time.

When it comes to contracts, many coaches and course creators piece together their contracts by copying what someone else used — leaving their business exposed to refund disputes, payment problems, and legal gray areas that could cost them far more than they ever made. Without the right protections in place, a single difficult client can turn into a nightmare with no clear resolution.

In this episode, Bobby Klinck teaches us how to build a coaching contract that actually protects your business — covering the key clauses most people overlook, what you should never say in your agreement, and the hidden legal risks lurking in even the most "standard" contracts – everything you want to know before your next client signs on the dotted line.

About Bobby Klinck: Bobby is a Harvard Law Grad turned online entrepreneur—but he’s NOT your typical lawyer. He doesn't do suits, he hates legalese more than you do, and he has a tendency to make bad pop-culture references and dad jokes.

With his extensive expertise from a 20+ year legal career, Bobby is now focusing on making the legal stuff simple for online business owners.

Most online business owners hit a ceiling because they're trapped doing everything themselves — wearing every hat from marketing to sales to admin — which stalls growth and eats away at the time freedom they started their business to create.

In this episode, Abbas Mohammed teaches us how to strategically leverage virtual assistants to break through that ceiling, including how to identify which role to hire for first (hint: it's probably not what you think), the critical mindset shift that separates solopreneurs from CEOs, and how to set your new hires up for success so they actually move the needle in your business.

Before launching Remote Leverage, Abbas built a thriving real estate career, becoming one of the Top 50 REMAX agents in the U.S. by leveraging a team of 25 Virtual Assistants.

Most online business owners are trapped in a day-to-day revenue cycle, never building the assets needed for real growth. Without a clear destination and strategic roadmap, most online business owners never reach their long-term goals—they simply drift.

In this episode, Dave Lavinsky teaches us how to reverse-engineer business success by envisioning your end goal, mapping out the trajectory to get there, and focusing on building assets (products, systems, team members) instead of just chasing daily profits.

Most online course creators are missing out on a massive, built-in market of professionals who are required to purchase educational content every year to maintain their licenses—and many aren't even spending their own money but using employer-provided education stipends.

In this episode, Justin Montgomery teaches us how to transform your professional expertise into continuing education courses that qualify for CE credits. He breaks down the surprisingly simple accreditation process (it's easier than you think), shares how he scaled his CE business to an 8-figure valuation, and reveals why holiday sales events can generate over $1 million in just four days when you're in the CE space.

About Justin Montgomery: Justin is the founder of The Elite Nurse Practitioner, and is a nurse practitioner with degrees in biology, chemistry, nursing, and a master's in nursing. In 2019, he launched The Elite Nurse Practitioner to teach nurse practitioners clinical and business skills for starting their own practices. Within just three years, he scaled the business to seven figures annually and built an eight-figure net worth, achieving financial independence and retiring before age 40.

After realizing that exchanging time for dollars would never lead to true wealth, Justin created a scalable online course business that generates passive income with minimal time investment. Now, through his company ProCourseStart, he helps other professionals build their own continuing education course businesses so they can share their expertise, create passive income streams, and stop trading their time for dollars.

How to Sell High Ticket Offers with One Slide and a 5 Minute Pitch with Stirling Gardner

Episode 189: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

Most online entrepreneurs struggle to clearly articulate their high-ticket offer, leaving prospects confused and uncertain—which kills conversions. Without a concise way to communicate your value, you're left overexplaining, value-stacking bonuses that feel like work, and wondering why no one's buying.

In this episode, Stirling Gardner teaches us how to sell any high-ticket offer using his "One Slide Offer" framework—a visual method that delivers your pitch in under five minutes. He breaks down the three parts of every offer, reveals why speaking to the problems prospects think they have (not the ones you know they have) transforms your messaging, and explains how certainty drives buying decisions.

About Stirling Gardner: Stirling spent 22 years as a Hollywood storyteller before discovering his calling at the intersection of psychology, narrative, and mathematics. After Hollywood, he ran ads and then an agency with performance-based pricing—a model that taught him every piece of the marketing equation. He realized even seven-figure entrepreneurs often lacked clarity on what they were selling. They had products and traffic, but no message that made it click. Somewhere in the chaos, he had an epiphany: the entire system was like a quadratic equation he could visualize—every lever, every input, and how small tweaks could unlock massive revenue.

Today, he operates as a Chief Revenue Officer in a box, helping entrepreneurs extract their genius and turn it into offers the world wants to buy. His superpower is seeing the full picture—product, positioning, pricing, promotion, and performance—and immediately knowing how to package and pitch it. He lives in Asheville, NC with his wife and dog Bear, bringing simplicity and truth to every business he touches.

Many online business owners waste months creating courses, coaching programs, or services only to discover there's no market demand when they finally launch. This leads to lost time, money, and momentum that could have been invested in profitable ventures.

He reveals his "Marketing Flywheel" framework and how stepping out of the competition mindset and focusing on becoming a "category of one" through a longer-term, relationship-based approach not only feels better but is actually more profitable than short-cycle funnels, often producing dramatically higher returns on ad spend while building a business you can be proud of.

One of the biggest struggles for online business owners is generating consistent, high-quality traffic and leads.

One of the biggest challenges facing online business owners is the dreaded feast and famine cycle - periods where your business is thriving and fully booked, followed by devastating lulls with empty calendars and dwindling income. This happens because most entrepreneurs fall into the trap of either hustling hard to fill their pipeline OR focusing entirely on serving clients, but never doing both consistently.

In this episode, sales expert Justine Beauregard teaches us how to create steady, predictable revenue by implementing systems that work in the background while you serve clients. She reveals her RAIN framework for creating three types of content that speak to prospects at different stages - from those ready to purchase today to those just becoming aware they have a problem. Justine also shares how to differentiate yourself in saturated markets by focusing on unique results rather than reinventing methods, and explains why showing up consistently often matters more than being the "best" option available.

About Justine Beauregard: An entrepreneur all her life, Justine got her start hosting puppet shows in her backyard for $5 a ticket.

As host of the top 5% entrepreneurship podcast People Over Profit, writer for Entrepreneur.com, and an award-winning sales strategist since 2007, Justine loves teaching others how to sell more naturally, without feeling pushy or ‘salesy.’

Stories are some of the most powerful marketing tools you have in your business. But a lot of people feel like their story isn’t anything special or exciting… they don’t have a dramatic rags-to-riches story, or an experience of hitting rock-bottom and then working their way to the top.

But there are many settings and setup details that can make all of the difference between an ad campaign that loses money and a campaign that is wildly successful.

In this episode, Lucas Lee-Tyson dives deep into the Facebook Ad Manager and tells us what settings you need to pay attention to in order to squeeze the most ROI out of your campaigns and how to set up your funnel to optimize it to attract and convert high-ticket clients.

About Lucas Lee-Tyson: Lucas helps entrepreneurs build marketing systems that scale — even if no one knows who you are.

A few years ago, Lucas was a broke college student with no connections, no audience, and no idea how to “sell himself.” But he had one obsession: figuring out how to get strangers to buy.

What started as a side hustle turned into a business that generated over $50 million in revenue — selling online courses, coaching, and digital products using a system he built from scratch. A system that didn’t require a big team, daily content, or endless sales calls… just the right message, presented the right way.

Now, Lucas teaches other entrepreneurs how to do the same.

He specializes in helping experts, coaches, and content creators turn their knowledge into scalable digital products — using psychology-based marketing systems that sell for them 24/7, without chasing leads or burning out.

Small Mistake Sparks Massive YouTube Growth with Alisia Essig

Episode 126: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

In this episode, nutrition coach Alisia Essig tells us how a mistake in one of her YouTube videos triggered the algorithm to make the video go viral and blew up her channel with hundreds of thousands of views, sparking massive YouTube growth.

About Ali Essig: Ali is a plant-based nutritionist, Pilates instructor, the founder of PlantWhys, and the creator of plant-based courses and coaching where she empowers women to achieve a smaller waist through a plant-based diet combined with core and pelvic floor exercises.

As a mother of six children, including twin baby boys, Ali found herself rushing to the emergency room with her 37-year-old husband who had just suffered a stroke. After multiple tests, doctors found no clear answers and encouraged their family to eat a heart healthy diet by avoiding saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol and to eat more fiber.

Ali dived deep into the research and found that eating a plant-predominant diet would not only decrease her husband’s risk of stroke, but also decrease ALL types of chronic disease. She now combines her almost two decades of experience teaching Pilates with a proven plant-based formula to help women finally have a stronger, slimmer waist.

Ali regularly shares vegan recipes on her popular YouTube channel @PlantWhys and powerful plant-based insights on her Instagram account @PlantWhys.

Referrals and networking are a great way to get your first customers and clients when you start your online business, and they can be a great way to land clients down the road as well.

However, relationship-based marketing is difficult to scale because you can only scale relationship-building so far.

For most entrepreneurs, the referrals eventually become less and less frequent and relying solely upon them to make a living can result in a stressful “feast or famine” lifestyle.

In this episode, Leah and Todd Getts break down the simplest first steps you can take to get off the referral rollercoaster and create a daily routine that brings in regular leads and sales from a cold audience on social media.

Using a “Brand Video” to Get High-Ticket Clients to Buy Faster with Mariana Henninger

Episode 117: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

It’s a well-known saying in marketing that people only buy from those that they know, like, and trust.

It doesn’t matter how good your product or service is, or what results you get for people… if a prospect doesn’t feel like they know, like, and trust you, they will never buy from you.

Building that “know, like, trust” factor is essential in landing high-paying clients, and the faster you can do that, the sooner your prospects will buy.

In this episode, Mariana Henninger breaks down exactly how to make that emotional connection with your audience in as little as 4-5 minutes and fast track the “know, like, trust” process so you can land high-ticket clients faster.

About Mariana Henninger: Mariana was an international journalist for 15 years, documenting stories from war zones in Afghanistan, Bedouin tents in the Middle East, luxurious open prisons in Finland and fishing for sea cucumbers in Haiti. Her stories have been on the homepage of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, TIME Magazine and many others.

She is an award-winning storyteller, and has won a National EMMY award and had two nominations for her documentaries, and she is the founder of Brandmagnetic.com, where she works with entrepreneurs, coaches and experts to turn their story into SALES on autopilot.

One piece of advice that a lot of marketing guru’s will give to their clients is to just “provide value” with your content and eventually, people will buy.

While “providing value” is good to do and should be part of your strategic content strategy, if that’s all you’re doing, inevitably, what you’ll find is that you’re spending all day creating content, but it never converts into sales.

In this episode, Mariah Macinnes explains her 3-step content creation strategy you need to implement in order to take people from cold audience to paying client. She explains how to get viral reach with your “top of funnel” content to build your audience, and then how to turn those new followers into customers and clients with your down-funnel content.

About Mariah Macinnes: Mariah is the brains behind Content Queen and atravellers.co. She's not your average digital nomad – she’s a storyteller, content marketing strategist, and big visionary with a mission to inform and educate.

She lives the digital nomad dream, building her content marketing agency and creating an educational side to the business, all while documenting the journey online. Mariah's not just building businesses - she's crafting a life that's all about exploring and embracing what the world has to offer.

In 2021, Mariah was diagnosed with tumors in her bowel and pancreas. Instead of letting it kill her dreams, while in neuroendocrine cancer remission, Mariah turned her story into a motivator to go after what she wanted. Now she is sharing her journey online and encouraging others to do the same.

Google ads work for a lot of businesses, but do they actually work for selling online courses, coaching programs, or agency services?

At first, it seems like you should be able to find very high-intent buyers if you target the right keywords… if someone is searching for “best fitness coach”, you would think that running ads for that keyword would give you “ready-to-buy” leads, right?

The answer is more complicated than one might think.

In this episode, Google Ads expert John Horn breaks down the pros and cons of Google ads for coaches and course creators and explains when it might make sense and when it doesn’t. He also gives us a bunch of tips on how to make different types of paid ads work for online businesses.

Scaling High-Ticket Sales with “One-to-Many” Live Events with Steve Werner

Episode 111: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

Selling your high-ticket offer with one-to-one sales calls is effective, but it can be a challenge to scale past a certain point.

One of the ways to overcome this is to start selling your program one-to-many through live events, which is a strategy many of the most successful online coaches have used to take their businesses to the next level is live events.

The problem a lot of people have with them is that doing the event is expensive, they’re a logistical nightmare to organize, and getting registrants for them is expensive as well.

It’s not uncommon to be in for $100k or more before the event even starts, which can be incredibly risky, especially if it’s your first event.

But what if you could fill an event with buyers and keep all of your costs to $15k or less?

In this episode, Steve Werner teaches us his method for easily filling small, inexpensive live events that pump out premium, high-ticket clients on the back end.

About Steve Werner: From speaking on more than 500 stages and generating $50 million in sales from stage, to overcoming near bankruptcy and rebuilding his success, Steve captivates audiences with fresh unheard stories and powerful life lessons.

How to Crush Any Objection and Close High-Ticket Clients Instantly with Jay Lee

Thu, 28 Nov 2024 06:00:00 -0500

Episode 106: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

Selling high-ticket is the best way to get started with an online business for a lot of reasons… you can make more money with fewer clients, and do so with less-sophisticated marketing.

But one part of selling high ticket that a lot of people struggle with is sales calls… specifically handling objections at the end of the call.

You can do everything right and knock their socks off with a great offer at the end, and then have everything completely fall apart if you don’t know the right way to handle objections like…

“I don’t have the money”
“I want to get started, but now’s not a good time”
“I need to think about it”
“I need to ask my spouse”

In this episode, sales ninja Jay Lee dives deep into the sales call process and how to handle any objection in a way that gets your prospects begging you take their credit cards and join. And, most importantly, he teaches us how to do this all ethically, with integrity, and without being overly salesy.

About Jay Lee: As a former introvert, banker, pastor and reluctant evangelist, Jay was born and raised in Toronto, Canada and his first job was with the largest bank where he helped launch one of the most successful Visa Platinum Reward cards.

God called Jay into full-time ministry so he pivoted and completed a Masters in Divinity and became a pastor for 10 yrs, having trained 2500+ leaders in gospel fluency and after 40,000 conversations, witnessed 10,000 professions of faith.

He pivoted to high ticket sales, selling millions of dollars in high ticket sales...and then hundreds of people asked him to sell for them and teach them how to sell...so he pivoted to sales coaching and business growth consulting...having helped grow and scale companies from $0-$3M+ in 24 months, $100k/mo to $1M+/mo and getting some significant client results such as $152k in 30 days for one of his clients and $25M+ in client revenue in only 3 years.

Unique Way to Get Buyer Leads Using Amazon Ads with Ben Cena

Tue, 26 Nov 2024 06:00:00 -0500

Episode 105: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

A lot of people in the online business space are familiar with the idea of a “self-liquidating offer”… a low-cost offer that you can run paid ads to directly in order to find people who are likely to invest money into more expensive purchases.

The idea is that the offer itself is “self-liquidating”. In other words, the money you make from the course sales pay for the cost of the ads.

The problem is that this is very difficult to achieve and that low-cost offer is almost never actually “self liquidating”. Most people are taking heavy losses on the front end to generate a buyer lead.

In this episode, Ben Cena tells us all about his method for actually achieving a 100% self-liquidating offer using Amazon Ads, and then moving those leads on into high ticket coaching programs and other offers.

About Ben Cena: Ben is CEO and co-founder of High Value Author. Passionate about turning brilliant professionals like you into published authors without the headache.

Guaranteed Organic Traffic & Cashflow in Less Than a Month with Matt Raad

Episode 104: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

Online business owners and content creators can spend years establishing an online presence… hustling and grinding for hours every week to create content, get subscribers & followers, building an audience, trying to build their business organically, and end up with a small trickle of traffic and clicks for all their work.

It’s a great example of how trying to do things for free will keep you broke.

But what if you could shortcut the entire process, and within a month or less, you had a flood of organic traffic and cashflow coming in that you could point directly into your landing pages and offers, AND the traffic and cashflow were guaranteed.

That’d be pretty cool right?

In this episode, Matt Raad explains how he does exactly that. Matt and his wife, Liz, specialize in buying existing websites with an established flow of traffic and revenue, renovating them, and then either growing & maintaining them for continued cashflow, or re-selling them for a profitable exit.

We talk about how to find and evaluate websites to buy, how to insert your own offers into the site once you take ownership, how to renovate the website and increase it’s visibility in Google search, and much more!

About Matt and Liz Raad: Matt and Liz have used a very unconventional method to create financial freedom in their lifetime, starting with nothing and building a high cash flow portfolio through buying and selling businesses.

Matt and Liz are website investors, which means they use digital assets to generate cashflow and build wealth. They were one of the first in the world to realize that they could buy websites, renovate them like real estate, and then sell or keep them for cashflow.

These days they love teaching beginners how to reach 6 & 7 figure website portfolios using a similar strategy to buying & renovating traditional real estate.

Episode 102: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

The key to a profitable launch is having a large, warm audience to sell to.

Unfortunately, most coaches and course creators don’t really have a good plan to “launch” their business.

They put a bunch of time, effort, and money into creating their program, but when it comes to actually selling their program, they’re typically just making social media posts directing a cold audience to a sales page.

And that’s why most online business owners “launch” to the sound of crickets.

In this episode, Wendi Blum Weiss tells us about how she launches businesses by releasing a book first. This allows her to have a large, warm audience primed and ready to buy when she’s ready to launch her next course or coaching program.

We go into detail about the easiest ways to get published, different ways to leverage your book to build an email list, how to get your book into popular book stores, how to get your book to rank in Amazon, and much more!

About Wendi Blum Weiss: Wendi is a former award-winning sales executive who exited the pharmaceutical industry in 2013.

There’s nothing worse than spending months (or years) planning and developing your online course, recording, editing, and producing all of the course videos, putting together all of the downloads and resources, designing and building out the membership site, setting up a payment processor and creating a checkout page…

And then you “launch” and make zero sales, and it seems like no matter what you do, nobody seems to want to buy.

In this episode, Todd and Leah sit down with instructional design expert (and Digital Trailblazer team member), Morgan Meredith, and discuss how to create an online course that is practically guaranteed to make sales on launch day.

We talk about the differences between courses that flop and courses that sell, how to structure your course, what kind of downloads and assessments to include, how long your videos should be, how to prepare for your launch, how to compete and make sales in a saturated market, and much more!

Generating passive, organic traffic can often be more of a hustle than what it’s worth. Spending hours a day pumping out content that ultimately gets just a handful of views is a great way to burn out before you ever make your first sale.

The problem is that most people often focus on “shiny object” tricks, hacks, and strategies that only produce 5% of results… things like keywords, hashtags, view history, special effects, etc.

Meanwhile, the bulk of your results will come from just focusing on just a handful of simple key tactics, that, if done consistently, can grow your business to $10k per month in as little as 3-4 months.

In this episode, Justin Nault reveals the two social media platforms you need to focus on if you want to generate organic traffic, leads, and sales fast, as well as the key components of your content to improve upon in order to quickly grow a targeted social media following full of buyers.

About Justin Nault: Justin Nault is a highly successful serial entrepreneur known for his ability to identify niche markets, leverage social media, and create profitable business models that disrupt conventional industries.

As the founder of Clovis, a nutritional supplement company, and co-founder of MedChoice, which boasts one of the top-selling turmeric products on Amazon, Justin has a proven track record of turning ideas into multi-million-dollar ventures. He has built several companies to 7 and 8 figures, amassing a social media following of over 500,000 passionate fans, some of whom are so dedicated they’ve even inked Clovis tattoos on their bodies.

What sets Justin apart is his ability to create profitable funnels from his social media presence, turning followers into customers with ease. Through compelling storytelling, educational content, and a keen sense of market trends, Justin has mastered the art of monetizing online influence. His approach goes beyond just selling products—he crafts a brand experience that resonates deeply with his audience, driving loyalty and long-term success.

One of the biggest problems online business owners face is quality of leads. You hustle all day just to connect with a handful of people who seem interested, but in the end, they’ve always got some reason why they can’t buy or join right now…

Either they don’t have the money, or the timing isn’t right, or they’re unsure if this is the right solution and they need to think about it… whatever the issue is, they never seem to pull the trigger and buy.

So, what gives?

Well, the buyers are definitely out there, and in this episode, Marty Marion gives us the full scoop on what it takes to get their attention and instantly turn them into paying customers and clients.

How to Scale to 7 Figures Organically Without Hustling DM’s All Day with Shameca Tankerson

Episode 87: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

When marketing guru’s try to sell you on an “organic” growth strategy, they’re often just trying to sell you a networking and prospecting strategy…

In other words, they teach you to friend request a bunch of strangers, and then spend all day trying to slide into their DMs and beg them to get on a sales call with you.

Does it work? – In many cases, yes.

Is it a pain in the rear and burn you out in a matter of a few months? - Also yes.

Is it really “organic”? - No.

Real organic growth happens when the algorithm and other users share your content and refer people to you. In other words, it’s passive, leveraged, and it grows your business even when you’re not actively working.

In this episode, Shameca Tankerson tells us how she’s cracked the code for massive organic growth.

We dive into what kinds of content to create, where to share it, the profile settings you need to make to get the most organic reach, how to create simple 2-page funnels to make sales, and how to get it all done in just one hour a day.

About Shameca Tankerson: Shameca is a trailblazer and phenom in the field of business revenue acceleration with over 20 years of sales and is celebrated as one of the world’s most trusted leaders and advisors.

Building surface-level credibility is easy… just pay $300 for a press release and now you can put the “as featured on” badge on your website along with logos from Fox, NBC, ABC, CBS, and any other media source that published your press release.

The problem is that doing this is cheap, easy, and anyone can do it - which means that its value is very limited, and it doesn’t really give you any real, legitimate credibility.

That’s where getting featured on Network TV is different.

With the right connections and a good angle and pitch, you can get your business featured in front of millions and come out of it with a level of legitimacy and credibility that your competitors can’t imitate with a cheap press release.

In this episode, Mitch Carson gives us the inside scoop on how you can go from an unrecognizable, generic internet coach, to the well-known, go-to authority in your niche by getting featured on major network television.

It’s often said that the riches are in the niches. When you drill down and get specific about who you’re serving, the problem you solve, and the solution you offer, you don’t need a huge audience to build a profitable online business.

You don’t need a huge audience…

You don’t need your content to go viral…

You don’t need a ton of like, comments, or other engagement…

You just need to get your content in front of a small number of the right people, and you can rake in the leads and sales all day.

In this episode, Steven Pope discusses with us how he built an 8-figure online business with his small YouTube channel. With less than 50k subscribers, and his typical video getting between 200 and 500 views, his business generates over $20 million per year in sales.

There’s a common misconception in marketing that if you just “provide value” to your audience, they will automatically buy out of gratitude.

And while providing value is good and something you should do, there’s a lot more that goes into making a sale than that. In fact, providing too much value can lead to making no sales.

Making sales is a highly psychological process, and the more you understand what people are thinking and why they’re thinking it, the better you can guide people to knowing how your product or service can solve their problems and help them reach their goals.

In this episode, Hope Zvara gives us her insights on how to psychologically trigger the “buy switch” in your audience when speaking at events, whether it’s a webinar, a livestream, a summit, podcast interview, or live on stage.

For a lot of solopreneurs, outsourcing and hiring people tends to create more problems than they solve.

Rather than taking things off your plate, it ends up being more work for you to manage them than for you to just simply do the work yourself.

Whether it’s for small things like social media management and VA work, to more creative tasks such as graphic design, to more technical things like website and funnel creation, or even to higher-level sales positions such as setting & closing…

Building a team that can actually make your business (and life) easier all starts with making the right hire.

Monthly memberships can be a great way to generate predictable revenue every month in your online business.

The downside is that you need a LOT of members in order to build up any kind of significant revenue, and most people simply don’t have a source of traffic that allows them to do that.

That’s why most people who try to start a membership end up putting in a ton of work just to support a handful of people who actually join.

In this episode, Beth Sandlin tells us how she built a $50/month membership up to 500+ members with free traffic she gets from her YouTube videos. She explains her posting schedule, what kind of content to create to build your membership, how to differentiate your YouTube content from your membership content, how to promote your membership in your videos, and much more!

Social media algorithms used to be fairly simple to “hack” and manipulate in order to get more reach for your content. But algorithms and AI are sophisticated enough now that “hacking” the algorithm with keyword stuffing, hashtag stuffing, bots, or fake engagement is incredibly difficult – and that’s a good thing.

Because what triggers the algorithm now is authentic user engagement… views, watch time, comments, etc. are the key to creating viral content that quickly brings in traffic, followers, leads, and sales for your online business.

In this episode, Amy Sanders explains the simple techniques she uses to drive authentic user engagement on Instagram which leads to followers, leads, and sales, and has helped her to build a 7 figure online business.

About Amy Sanders: Amy is an entrepreneur at heart and master certified business & life coach. Amy's had ups and downs, but after leaving an unhealthy marriage and becoming a broke single mom, she didn't recognize herself or her life.

After hitting rock bottom she made some drastic changes, turned her life around and has since created five successful businesses and is now a self-made millionaire.

Since then, she has taught and inspired thousands of women through weight loss, mindset, relationships and business. From her experiences, Amy has made it her life mission to help women uncover their purpose & expose their strengths so they can create a thriving life they love.

Instagram can be great for building your business organically… but building organically is still slow, and the results are never guaranteed. Many people have been building organically on Instagram for years with little to show for it.

And what a lot of people don’t realize is that Instagram is one of the best ad platforms around.

In this episode, Austin Schneider talks to us in depth about his Instagram ads strategy that is currently bringing in up to 4x return on ad spend for him and his clients.

He gives us practical examples of his ad images and videos, his copywriting, targeting strategies, and how he turns his leads into paying high-ticket clients.

About Austin Schneider: College dropout. Divorced parents. History of addiction in the family. No money handouts. Evicted. Austin had ALL the reasons to NOT take a risk and bet on himself.

But instead of playing victim, he worked to create what he wanted in life, and in 2014, he started his journey of “self employment” as a realtor, and later transitioned into starting his agency that’s generated over $5 million in sales with over 20 employees.

His business has now helped over 160 businesses get out of the grind and go from being an operator to an orchestrator by leveraging systems, client acquisition techniques, and our hiring funnel.

Everybody wants the “laptop lifestyle”, but most people who start an online business end up working more hours for less pay.

Even when your business starts having success and you scale to 6 or 7 figures, you may be making more money, but you’re often still left working more than you worked at your full time job.

One of the keys to finally building that laptop lifestyle is building yourself out of the business. In other words, you need to build a team that can run your business without you having to be there 24/7.

However, that’s much easier said than done, because in a lot of cases, business owners find that it takes more time and effort to manage an employee than it does to just do the work yourself.

In this episode, Richard Walsh fills us in on all of the ins-and-outs of hiring the right employees for your online business, how to properly train them in and get them up to speed fast, how to set expectations so they’re always staying on task and not wasting time and money, and even how to fire employees who aren’t performing up to expectations.

About Richard Walsh: Richard is a 30-year seasoned entrepreneur. He’s the best-selling author of “Escape the Owner Prison, the contractor's new way to scale, regain control, and fast-track growth while loving life”. A speaker and podcast host, he’s a husband and father of six children, a US Marine, champion boxer, black belt, and an internationally recognized steel sculptor.

His expertise lies in combining both the strategic and the tactical. He's able to deliver immediate, problem solving results (tactical), along with strategic, long term implementation of systemization and scalability. With over 30 years in business himself, Richard has embraced time compression, sharing the secrets and strategies that bring rapid and lasting results to the companies he works with.

Therapists, counselors, nutritionists, personal trainers, etc… there are many types of service providers who spend years in college to earn an advanced degree just to go to work for another company, putting in 40-60 hours a week, just to earn what a manager at McDonalds makes.

Everyone thought that A.I. would be taking over the boring, menial, low-level jobs in society. But now that A.I. is here, we’re finding out that instead, it’s doing creative work, writing content, giving expert advice, and taking over the high-level skilled jobs with things such as AI generated photos, videos, content, search results, and more.

It makes you wonder if at some point, AI won’t need to you train it anymore and experts, coaches, and teachers will be completely replaced with AI.

In this episode, Chase Neely talks about the rapidly changing marketplace and how AI has already impacted online businesses. Then, he explains what you must do in order to keep yourself relevant, be competitive in your niche, and still be able to carve out a 7 figure income with your online business despite the A.I. takeover.

How to Turn a “No” into a “Yes” When People Don’t Buy the First Time with Chelsea Beauchamp

It’s a well know statistic in the marketing world that only about 3% of your audience is ready to buy and join right now, which means that 97% of your audience is going to say NO the first time you present your offer to them.

The problem is that most online business owners hear “no” and they think it means “no, not ever” and they give up and move on.

Meanwhile, the most profitable and successful business owners realize that “no” often just means “no, not yet”, and they have systems in place to continue to work their prospects until they’re ready to say YES!

In this episode, Chelsea Beauchamp (aka Chelsea B) tells us her “minimalist” philosophy for turning those “no’s” into “yes’s” and how you can create an automated backend system to do most of the heavy lifting for you.

About Chelsea Beauchamp: Chelsea B., aka “The Minimalist Marketer”, helps high ticket coaches and subject matter experts leverage smart, simple, scalable email — to make a bigger difference, close more sales faster, AND avoid spontaneously combusting.

Two things that need to happen before you can make a sale are generating the lead, and building trust and rapport (i.e. nurturing your audience).

Those are also two of the most difficult hurdles online business owners have to overcome when starting their businesses.

But what if you could be dropped into a situation where the leads had already been generated and they instantly recognized you as a leading authority in your niche.

Sales would probably come a lot easier, right?

In this episode, Kim Walsh Phillips and Justin Guarini (yes, the guy from American Idol) explain their unique “Celebrity Speaker” funnel that gives you celebrity status with qualified leads so you can charge premium prices and convert millions in sales without ever needing to hustle DMs or run paid ads.

Low vs Mid vs High Ticket – How to Price Your Offers and Why with Stephen Somers

Episode 59: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

One of the biggest questions people have when creating their first digital product is ‘how much should I charge?’, and there are a lot of different opinions about the best place to start.

Some people will tell you that you should start with a high ticket offer because you can make more money with fewer sales. Then, you can work your way backwards and build out some lower ticket front end offers later.

However, others will say that it’s best to start with a low ticket offer for your first product because it’s easier to sell something at $50 or $100 than it is to sell something for $5,000 or $10,000. Once you get that selling, you can build upon it to create higher ticket offers.

Both arguments have their merits, but when you look at the raw numbers and the real-life evidence, the answer becomes clearer as to what the better option is for different situations.

In this episode, Stephen Somers explains the pros and cons of each method, the best ways to sell low and mid ticket versus high ticket, and what’s the best way to get started for different situations.

$100k Launch with NEW Way to Run Facebook Challenges with Mandy Nicholson

Episode 58: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

Challenges are becoming an increasingly popular way to sell digital products and coaching programs. The problem with that is that audiences are becoming more and more “immune” to Challenges as a sales tactic.

It’s becoming more difficult to get people to register, more difficult to get people to show up every day, and more difficult to convert participants into customers and clients at the end of the Challenge.

It’s not that “Challenges are dead”, it’s just that we need to adjust how they’re done in order to adapt to changing customer behaviors.

In this episode, Mandy Nicholson tells us about her years of experience with Challenges, crunching the numbers, testing new things, and finding what is working right now to get the highest conversion rates possible with Challenges.

She discusses everything from promoting the challenge, how to recoup the cost of ads before the Challenge starts, what to do during each day of the Challenge, how and when to introduce your offer, what specials and promotions you can offer to increase sales, and how to follow-up and close out the Challenge after everything is done.

About Mandy Nicholson: Mandy is known as the Creative Genius Consultant, and is an Artist, Author, and Creative Retreat owner in Scotland. Mandy specializes in helping creative women to launch, grow and scale their businesses and make more money.

With her unique approach to marketing, Mandy stomps all over the myth of the starving artist by helping the creatives of the world find a business model that truly works for them, because it’s a fact that the creative brain is different, and unless you work with it, there is resistance - and Mandy definitely knows how to work with it!

Episode 52: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

Most people try to scale their business by simply making more sales.

However, what most entrepreneurs don’t realize is that the effort it takes to generate more traffic, the increased ad costs, and the labor required to deliver and support those extra customers makes it the most difficult and least profitable ways to scale.

On the other hand, one of the fastest and most profitable ways to scale your business is to simply raise your prices.

In this episode, Kristin Gutierrez discusses with us exactly how to do that. She explains how to take any low-ticket offer and add value to it in order to 10x the price (or more), and also how to sell your new high ticket offer in the most leveraged way possible.

About Kristin Gutierrez: Kristin is a Best-selling author and founder of Bold Moves Mastery™ where she teaches entrepreneurs the simple 4 step system to crush it.

Most online business owners who have a digital products business (i.e. coaches, course creators, etc) don’t typically have a real “exit strategy”.

Some coaches & course creators plan on just making a bunch of money and then just quitting when they’ve decided they’ve made enough money (or just get sick of it), and others have just never even stopped to think of an exit plan.

But what if you could actually sell your online course or coaching business for a profitable exit?

In this episode, Jen Kilbourne explains how she did just that.

Jen answers all your questions about how to sell a digital products business… how to find a buyer, how to prepare for the sale, how much is your online business worth, how to maximize the value of your business, what are the things that add value to your business, how long does the process take, what do you do if your business is tied to your name and likeness, how big do you need to build your business before you can sell it, and much more!

You can only build your online business so far before your revenue hits a plateau, and the only way you can continue to grow is by hiring a team to run parts of your business for you.

The problem that a lot of solopreneurs run into is that they either find a cheap VA from overseas that produces low-quality work, or you pay a high price for a US-based VA in order to get an acceptable level of work.

In this episode, Beejel Parmar reveals how you can find highly-skilled VA’s from overseas at a much lower price than US-based virtual assistants. He explains what to look for in a resume, warning signs that a VA is likely to be a bad hire, what jobs and tasks in your business to outsource first in order to maximize ROI, how to train and manage your VA’s, and much more.

About Beejel Parmar: Beejel has been advising entrepreneurs on the subjects of overcoming procrastination, productivity, and outsourcing to virtual assistants since 2009. He has pioneered a home based VA model, and is a frequent speaker at workshops, mastermind, networking groups.

Nobody wants to invest months (or even years) into creating an online course or coaching program just to find out that nobody wants to buy it… yet that’s exactly what many first-time online business owners do.

They spend 6-12 months or more to create a complete, well-polished online course, and then they “launch” and get zero sales.

In this episode, Jeremy Shapiro explains how you can validate an offer BEFORE you create it and launch within a matter of days rather than months, so you can get your online business into profits quickly and predictably without the risk of investing all of your time and effort into creating a product that nobody wants.

About Jeremy Shapiro: In his role as a mentor and coach to entrepreneurs, serial-entrepreneur Jeremy B. Shapiro helps small business owners make the transition from “solopreneur” to “business owner” – an important distinction that many entrepreneurs can easily miss when working “in” their business instead of “on” their business.

Since 1998, through structured masterminding, one-on-one coaching, and consulting work, Jeremy has been helping entrepreneurs discover the core strengths in themselves and their business, and realize their true potential combining passion and expertise to grow their businesses and attain the freedom they deserve.

Are Messenger Ads Back? 300% ROI for High Ticket Coaches with Chandler Walker

Episode 35: Stuck at the Same Level in Your Coaching Business? Get That Fixed Here: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/7-dollar-biz-audit

If you’ve been around for a while, you probably remember when Facebook Messenger marketing and Messenger Ads were the hottest thing in the online business space.

You could get super-responsive, highly-engaged leads for dirt cheap and practically print money for your online business.

But, as with every great strategy, marketers ruin everything, and the platform started to be abused and exploited.

So, naturally, Facebook implemented some hard and fast rules, pages and ad accounts we shut down and banned in droves, and most people stopped using Messenger ads and moved on to the next hot, trendy marketing gimmick…

Everyone except this episode’s guest, Chandler Walker.

Even to this day, Chandler is using Facebook Messenger Ads to book highly-qualified sales calls with an 80% show rate (or better) and turn around a minimum of 300% return on his ad spend, which has resulted in over $50 million in revenue for his business.

In this episode, Chandler walks us though his Messenger Ad strategy in detail.

About Chandler Walker: Chandler went to university for biology and biochemistry and has built and sold businesses since 2009.

His Elite Ads Agency focuses on disruptive style ads and systems that set their clients apart from the rest of the industry and creates a moat surrounding their businesses.

With over 10 years of experience in the business world, Chandler has a passion for sharing the knowledge he’s gained and has learned to embrace failure as an opportunity for growth and the pursuit of mastery.

The old adage that “content is king” isn’t necessarily true anymore… at least not in the way it was true in the early 2000’s.

Now, every online business is creating content and it’s not the differentiating factor anymore. Rather, it’s a necessity.

So if you need to create content for your business, you want to do it bigger and better than your competition.

In this episode, Claudia King tells us how she recruits content creators to create videos, blog posts, and other social media content about her business to boost visibility and sales and create viral momentum for her business without having to run paid ads.

Everyone wants to make more money by doing less work. If you’ve got an online course or coaching program, the best way to do that is to charge more money and work with fewer clients.

That sounds good in theory, but in practice, most people have issues with figuring out exactly what to offer that they could charge that much money for. Not only that, but they also struggle to find the types of clients that are willing and able to pay those premium prices for your services.

In this episode, Ann Carden explains how to make that transition, no matter what niche you’re in… whether you’ve got a B2B offer, or you’re a fitness coach, mindset coach, life coach, relationship coach, or anything in between.

Ann also explains where to find high-value prospects and the marketing strategies she uses to turn them into paying clients that pay you 10x more than you’re currently charging.

About Ann Carden: Ann has more than forty-three years of business, marketing, and sales experience, with over thirty-two years as an entrepreneur. She has built 7 successful businesses (selling five) and is the current owner of two.

Most YouTubers create videos to get as many clicks and views as possible so they can make money from the ad revenue.

There are a lot of marketing strategies out there that will help you to generate leads, build an email list, get webinar registrants, book sales calls, etc.

But what a lot of online business owners eventually learn is that not all leads are created equal and cheap leads aren’t always a good thing. Wasting time with “tire-kickers”, broke people, and leads that ultimately just waste your time and never buy can be very costly to your business.

That’s why it’s well worth the higher cost to get a higher quality lead if those leads convert into a sales at a much higher rate.

In this episode, Carina Gardner lays out the strategies she uses to generate super-hot leads that are ready to buy BEFORE they jump on a sales call with you and how she’s used those strategies to build a multi-million dollar business in only a few short years.

About Carina Gardner: Carina is a surface pattern and craft designer turned CEO, who teaches hobbyists to make money as designers. As a former university professor (Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota) and creative director of a scrapbooking company (Cartabella Paper Co.), her expertise led her to build a multi-million dollar brand in 2 years.

Her program, Design Suite, grew so quickly due to Carina emphasizing community building, listening to members needs, and building coursework/awards that members love. She loves creative entrepreneurship and helping designers make money.

In this episode, Marco Torres explains how he helps online business owners to drive hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional sales by offering incentives that cost practically nothing.

Many entrepreneurs who are just starting out are reluctant to get into paid ads because we’ve all heard the horror stories of people blowing huge sums of money on campaigns that produced zero results.

In this episode, we talk with Justin Everman who has refined his process for growing his group and using Messenger conversations to book qualified sales calls for his business.

He goes into detail about what to post, how to grab people’s attention, how to start a conversation in Messenger, and how to segway that conversation into a sales call.
