IntegratED With Jamie Palmer - A podcast for online entrepreneurs

Today we had Karla Angel join us on the OMG Show! Karla is a confidence coach who works with a number of clients, most of whom are women working in the tech industry. Having been in the field herself for a while, she learned to cope with her own lack of confidence and it took years to realize that she was stressing herself out. The thing that she loved about all the jobs that she had was helping other people to see their potential and take a look at the challenges that were in their way.

As the CEO and business owner, whether you have a team or contractors or you work with clients, there is this weird trend around providing critical feedback that I’m seeing more and more of. This is important to address. We see it all the time in the Done for You side of our business where we’ll send something to someone and only get back “I don’t like that.” They aren’t giving concrete feedback so that we can take action around how something could be improved, changed, or modified.

In my group coaching program, funnels and Facebook ads have been hot topics recently. I wanted to talk to you guys about this today because we’re seeing a lot of crazy things happening in the funnel and Facebook ad worlds.  As someone who works behind the scenes, I’m going to share a lot of the things that we see people overlook a lot when it comes to funnels and Facebook ads.

Today I want to to talk to you about stepping into the CEO role in your business. I work with a lot of folks who started making money in their business and they run out of time in the day. They start trading dollars for hours and they aren’t able to scale their business so that they can keep growing. I want to talk to you guys because it’s an important conversation to have. If you want to continue to grow your business, you have to step into that role as CEO and challenge yourself to a higher role.

We welcomed Holly Chantal onto the OMG Show to talk all things business with us! Holly has been in the digital marketing world for 10 years and works to help service providers align their current business with their goals through their branding and their marketing systems. She started out doing website strategy and found that most business owners didn’t know what to ask for on their website because they didn’t know who their ideal client was.

In today’s online business world, it’s going to be a challenge to get to the multi 7-figure mark in business without an email list. According to Adobe, the average email is still worth $39.64 over the life of the email. That means that if you have a thousand people on your email list, the list has the potential to be worth $39,460.00 to your business. Not every person that is on your list is going to convert to a sale, but it’s important to talk about the benefits of growing your email list.

Last week, most of my family was sick including me. Long story short I decided to do something different than I normally would, and it was a big win for me. I would normally push through it and continue to work, and the sickness would just end up getting worse and lasting for weeks or months. It’s helped me to avoid the burnout that I used to experience as a new entrepreneur when I would work for weeks and then be dead for days.

I’ve been speaking to a lot of my clients who feel like they’re struggling to move forward. I noticed this happens a lot in the third quarter of the month, and I wanted to talk to you about how I manage my time and planning so that I can always be moving forward in a meaningful way. When I think about how I was able to grow the business in the last year and stay sane despite all the chaos, it’s all been about scheduling my time so that I’m focused on the work that I’m doing.

We welcomed Natalie Klun onto the OMG Show to talk with me about how to create meaningful connections with your potential clients that will turn into SALES. Having been in the industry for more than 20 years, Natalie knows a ton when it comes to how to close the deal. She is the owner of Lady Influencer and she works with female entrepreneurs who have trouble selling, and who self-sabotage their chances of making a sale when talking to a potential client.

Let’s talk about community building. This is one thing that I repeatedly see get pushed aside because it’s not seen as being valuable to entrepreneurs, but community building is what is going to make your launches a success. So many people who are completely crushing it in the online space have taken time to nurture and build their audience. For many people, no matter where you are in your business, it’s essential for success to have a community of people who you can actively promote yourself to.
