Adventures In Digital Marketing

Ok - so now that we're in full gear here in 2020 I want to talk about some new ways that I'm planning on delivering value this year. First off, I'm starting weekly scheduled trainings in my Facebook group, Digital Marketing Mastery. If you're not already in that group then run - don't want - to sign up at https://digitalmarketingmasteryhq.com. 

Next up is the upcoming WordPress Website Challenge. Even if you have zero tech skills, and the thought of website code makes you tremble, this challenge is going to help you build and launch your own self-hosted WordPress website! Stay tuned for the URL so you can get on the waiting list!

Thomas Edison is qouted as having said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." I can relate that sentiment in a big way. 

I've been doing this for a while.

There really isn't anything new.

But... 

... there are some times when things come together and it's like all the pieces of the puzzle have fallen in to place and you have one of those "eureka" moments and wonder why it took you so long to figure it out.

Over the last few months, I've had just such a revelation.

It happened simply enough - I was cleaning out emails and then BOOM: I had that "a ha" moment.

What I figured out has made all the difference in the world for me.

It's shown me the clearest of clear paths that I need to take like a bright light shining in a dark room.

It's helped me:

I recorded this Facebook Live session where I cover the 7 fundamental secrets to building a successful online business. You do NOT want to miss this one!

We all get super-excited when we're getting started online. We want just the right kind of look and feel, we want to have the right colors, and right layout, and all the other stuff that goes along with having a great looking, professional WordPress website. So the question soon follows: what theme should I use? How can I know if a theme is right for me? That's what I'm talking about today in episode #41 of the podcast - you don't want to miss this one!

I hope you had a great Holiday Season! It was a great time for rest and relaxation and I didn't realize how much I needed that! Sometimes it's easy to forget that you need to take time to get away and recharge. In my first episode of 2020 I'm talking about what's coming up and today I let the cat out of the bag. I'm super-excited and I think this is going to be incredibly helpful to so many who are looking to get started!

I've spent years trying to figure out and learn online business. I've found more ways that it DOESN'T work than it does. Years of frustration and minimal results. But that's changed. I've figured out the secret to online business and that's what I'm going to be talking about in this episode and over the next several episodes. This is the kind of stuff that can change your family tree when you execute it correctly. There are 7 foundational pillars to successful online business, and that's what I'm introducing you to today in this episode.

What's the biggest thing on your list that you need to do for 2020? If any of it has to do with building an online business then your first - or next - website is going to be on that list. Setting your goals and getting expectations in order is huge this time of year! So in order to help all of us along on that path is getting that part done, and that's what we're talking about here. I've got a new Challenge coming up that's going to help you build and launch your website, whether you've ever done it or not!

What is the difference between the people you see around you who are successful, and those who are not? Two words: Persistence and proficiency. It's those two words that make all the difference in the world. How do you get there? That's what this episode is all about, including the secret to finally making it through to the next level.

I've been to conferences before, but if I'm right, none of these conferences I've been to in the past will be anything like what Funnel Hacking Live is going to be, and I'm excited. This is a big expense for me - no doubt. But I'm stepping out on faith that I'm going to be able to connect with a lot of great people and learn at least enough to pay for the conference, and its associated expenses. I'm stoked! But I'm also scared! 

I read a book several years ago that represented a serious paradigm shift for me. It made things perfectly clear about what's at stake and what's required. The question then came back to me: what could I do if everything that I held dear was to be lost if I didn't come through? It's a fascinating thought experiment, and for some people it's a reality. My answer to that question is what this podcast is all about.

So I mentioned on my Facebook Live last week that I've signed up to go to Funnel Hacking Live in Nashville in 2020 and I could not be more excited! It's going to be an amazing experience from everything I've heard about it, and I cannot wait to meet so many of you who I've only met online. It's also the last chance to get in on the special deal that started on Black Friday - there are only a few hours left!
