Build Your Tribe | Grow Your Business with Social Media

Sometimes you just need to trust yourself. A listener asks Chalene about the importance of a high-quality website and she responds with some important questions: What is important to YOU when you visit someone's site? Do you even need a website first or should you start with an opt-in page? If so, single or double opt-in? Other topics include using "freemiums" to attract potential clients and get their email addresses and the importance of mobile-responsive design(meaning that your site is optimized for smartphones). Look, by having a site that looks good no matter what, you highlight that you're a professional with relevant, up-to-date information. Lastly, Chalene offers suggestions on four resources that will help you get started with your online presence.

We all know that the Internet has the answer to almost any question, so why should you bother paying for an online academy or seminar? Well, because it saves you time and money. In this episode, Chalene answers a question about online academies and outlines two or her own programs - Marketing Impact Academy and Smart Success Seminar - and offers insights into which one may be more valuable for you. Smart Success Seminar is about developing systems to help yourself be more organized and better prepared to grow your business (virtual assistants, outsourcing, file management, etc…). Marketing Impact Academy is for the organized ones who are looking for new methods to reach more people (webinars, opt-ins, etc…). Chalene discusses how she manages her email list and how she decides who to email. By using CRMs like Infusionsoft or iContact, she is able to determine how people entered her email and then tailor messages for them. Besides understanding who gets which emails and calls-to-action, Chalene describes something she has termed the "customer journey" - how is a potential new client moved from joining the email list to actively choosing to sign-up for a new program or service.

Chalene is joined by Jimmy Hays Nelson to answer rapid-fire listener questions. In this episode, Chalene and Jimmy talk about getting over the fear of failure - an essential trait for any successful entrepreneur. They also discuss when you should leave your current job for your new business (hint: it's different for every person) - it's all about understanding your own needs and your own goals. Regardless of when you leave, it's important to have the passion that will carry you through to success. Chalene also discuss the role of spirituality in the development of your business. It's not necessarily about sharing a religious background with your partners, it's about sharing a set of core principles that can help the business grow and provide you with a relationship that brings you fulfillment. Jimmy and Chalene also answer a fun hypothetical: Where would you start if all of your business magically disappeared overnight? They also tackle the question of individuality in how you design and implement your business and how you grow and use your email list. Also, do you have to be a "salesperson" to be successful with an MLM (multi-level marketing)?
