Are You Communicating From Problems or Solutions?
One of the biggest marketing mistakes I see entrepreneurs make is solely talking about solutions and avoiding the problems. Solutions sound great! They’re exciting and motivating, but if your audience can’t see themselves getting there, then they will not buy. But talking about their problems doesn’t have to mean “icky” sales messaging or digging into their pain. This time we're throwing it back to an older episode because this topic is more relevant than ever and I'm going to be diving into how to truly meet your audience where they are with messaging that connects on a deeper level. Listen in and learn my 3-step process for quickly improving your communication, a simple shift to meet your audience where they are, examples and stories to help see it through in your business, and the quick go-to exercise for implementing this marketing shift. Your audience wants a problem solved. Build trust with this marketing strategy and shift that will help you bring in more sales with happy customers on the other end. Did you enjoy this episode?

6 Ways To Increase Back-End Sales and Follow-Ups
There are a lot of different ways to make sales in your business. Most people focus on the front end and getting as many first-time buyers as possible, which every business needs, of course. But a common mistake I see happening is entrepreneurs creating more and more front-end offers. This can muddle your messaging and create less sales in other areas. Instead, keep the focus on sales from previous buyers! In this episode of the podcast, I’m sharing 6 surprising strategies to use with previous buyers that can triple your sales (or more) without spending more on ads! Listen in and learn follow-up strategies and backend sales techniques, a new messaging concept I’m working on right now, how it works inside our business and student examples using these strategies, and ways to increase sales without relying solely on ads. These strategies are simple ways to stop leaving money on the table and bring in more profit. Try them out in your last quarter, and let me know how it goes. Did you enjoy this episode?

Streamlining Your Book Keeping, Write-Offs, and More with Serena Shoup
When most people start a business, their focus is on revenue, sales, and bringing in money. Which is great (and necessary for running a business), but they also tend to overlook bookkeeping and taxes. This almost cost me tens of thousands of dollars, and it could cost you BIG money in savings, taxes, and more if you’re not careful. So on this episode of the podcast, I brought in a CPA and bookkeeping expert to talk about write-offs and healthy money management practices. Join me and Serena Shoup, the founder of Of Course Bookkeeping, who works with online businesses to discover how to use your numbers to make decisions looking forward, creative ways to include your kids in the business, when to outsource your bookkeeping and how to get started, and write-offs you probably didn’t know about and how to lower your taxable income. Save yourself the financial headaches down the road, and listen to this episode! I wish I had known this info when I first got started in business! Did you enjoy this episode?
