Do you want to unlock your greatest potential in business and achieve incredible results? In this special podcast episode, Jaryd Krause has invited Itamar Marani, who will share his expertise in emotional intelligence. Itamar's unique journey defied conventional education. He skipped university, immersing himself in real-world learning. At 18, he joined an elite Israeli Special Forces unit, engaging in a decade-long tenure in international counter-terrorism. In 2008, he became the youngest graduate of Israel's Air Marshal program. With a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt, he excelled globally and led diverse teams, overseeing substantial assets as a billionaire's security chief for three years before departing due to ethical concerns. A close encounter with Al Qaeda while undercover spurred mentorship from Mossad's head psychologist.  Now, through "The Arena," Itamar nurtures emotional fortitude and an effective mindset among entrepreneurs. Over 100 such individuals have benefited from his guidance, rooted in his multifaceted background encompassing special forces, counter-terrorism, psychological mentorship, and athletic achievement. His goal remains—equipping entrepreneurs with practical resilience and a mindset devoid of empty motivation.

The misconception that consistency equals success when it comes to scaling a blog is a common one that many people believe. While consistency is undoubtedly important in maintaining a blog and keeping readers engaged, it is not the sole determining factor for achieving success and scaling the blog to new heights. For today’s episode, my special guest Meera Kothand joined me to share her insights on content planning and email marketing for blogs.  Meera Kothand is an author of several Best selling books including “One Hour Content Plan,” “Selling the Intangible” and “The Blog Startup". Since 2015, she's helped over 100,000 small business owners and creatives lead through the noise by radically changing how they approach content - all without being on social media 24/7. Through her programs and courses, 1-1 strategic coaching, and more, she helps  clients and customers market their business with a content ecosystem that oozes authority, melts resistance and inspires dream clients to click, sign-up and buy.  We have discussed several topics, including: Where do most people go wrong with their content creation and why is there something far more important than consistency?  How to create a content plan that covers each part of your user's journey? How to bridge the gap from content consumption to your readers loving you and wanting to work with you? They also dive into the use of email lists. What types of call to actions to use for different types of content? And how to re-purpose or create content for social media that can generate leads and sales, but only when warranted on each platform? If you struggle in content planning and scaling your blog, this episode might help. Check it out and discover Meera’s techniques! Episode Highlights 04:24 Consistency = successful online business? 06:39 Tracking the right people 09:32 Contents of different viewpoints 13:22 Building a strong brand 15:22 Where to start in content creation? 28:01 What type of email marketing should a blogger do? 30:37 Is creating batch emails good? 36:31 Repurposing content Key Takeaways ➥ Consistency in content creation is not always equal to success. As an online business owner, you should consider other key factors such as producing high-quality and relevant content, being original, effectively distributing and promoting your content, engaging with your audience, and being adaptable to changes in the digital landscape.   ➥ When creating your brand, intentionally repelling people who are not the right fit for your business can be a strategic approach that helps you build a strong and loyal customer base. It's about focusing on your core audience and attracting those who genuinely connect with and benefit from what your brand has to offer.   ➥ For Meera, creating batch emails for 4-8 weeks allows for efficient time management and consistency in email marketing. It also provides the opportunity to address current trends, enhancing relevance and engagement with subscribers. This approach ensures a cohesive brand message while allowing flexibility for real-time adaptations.

Check out this episode and discover valuable insights that can help you make an informed investment decision! Episode Highlights Mindset that you should have when buying a site Buying small businesses vs. larger businesses Examples of a $5k website to a $50K website Examples of a $20K website to $200K website  Key Takeaways ➥ There’s nothing wrong with acquiring a smaller website (smaller deals). However, he is quite disappointed when people have very high expectations and unrealistic goals. That is why Jaryd highlights the value of knowing what size of deal you should go for.    ➥ When buying a smaller website, the focus is often on starting small and gradually building up. Smaller websites are typically less expensive, have lower traffic and revenue, and may require less initial investment. These acquisitions are often seen as stepping stones or opportunities for individuals to gain experience in website ownership and management. You have to be realistic though in setting your goals and know that it has greater risks.    ➥ Buying a larger website offers advantages like having a customer base, higher income potential, credibility, and less risks. About The Host Jaryd Krause is a serial entrepreneur who helps people buy online businesses so they can spend more time doing what they love with who they love. He’s helped people buy and scale sites all the way up to 8 figures, from eCommerce to content websites.
