  • 14 | 3 Productivity Tips That Changed My Life

    👉 5 Step Action Guide To Get Paid Sharing Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills Online - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈


    I’m a huge fan of working less and living more while making as much money as possible.


    I used to purely coach people on productivity and performance before teaching online business and productivity still has a sweet spot in my heart and spills into what I teach today.


    To me, working less is the goal. Even if I’m doing work I love, I don’t want to be working all the time and I don’t want that for you either (unless you’re into that).


    That’s why I teach about creating systems and focusing on passive income so that we can have real freedom in life - to me THAT is productivity.


    Today, we’re taking a bit of a different approach to online business by not focusing on the business systems but instead focusing on you and your personal efficiency.


    I’m going to share with you 3 of the many productivity tips that have dramatically changed my life and helped me be more productive.


    These are highly actionable, can be used today, and will help you start striking the stump rather than whacking at the branches.

  • 13 | Just LAUNCH your online course - I'm begging you!!

    👉 5 Step Action Guide To Get Paid Sharing Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills Online - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈


    Are you experiencing a “Failure to launch” with your course, product, or business?


    This is totally normal and typically caused by a few things…

    • Overthinking, over-complicating, and second-guessing
    • Being stuck in “consumption mode”
    • Fear that you won’t have as much success as other people

    • I get it.


      You want your products to be amazing before you launch them so they have the best chance of success, but what if that’s actually hurting your success?


      Wanting our course or product to be “perfect” is exactly what causes us to overthink, second-guess, keep consuming, and never launch.


      And I’m not just saying this to you, I experience this all the time when I’m creating new products.


      I have to actively catch myself and realize that it’s never going to be perfect until you get people through it and refine it over time.


      In today's episode, I’m going to crush this “failure to launch” and needing things to be “perfect” mental barrier we experience so you can get your products good enough and get them out there to start serving people.

    • 11 | Creating Your Perfect Client (Step-By-Step Guide)

      👉 5 Step Action Guide To Get Paid Sharing Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills Online - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈


      Creating a clear picture of your Perfect Client is essential in running a successful online business (and business in general).


      Having a customer avatar is what allows us to market to the right people and speak the language THEY can relate to.


      Problem is…


      A lot of people feel they “should” create a customer avatar but hate doing exercises that make them come up with something like, “I help middle-aged dads with 2 kids who drive minivans and do accounting”.


      They feel it takes a lot of time and that it frankly is a waste of it too.


      The truth is that understanding and coming up with a picture of who your perfect client is is one of the most important steps you can take as a business owner and get it out of your head rather than just simply “knowing” it.


      This doesn’t need to take long. You can literally do this in under an hour.


      Today, I’m walking you through (step-by-step) how to create your perfect client with the exact process I use to create my own.


      Devote an hour to this and you can be done with it so you can just get out there and start helping people.

    • 10 | How To Build Your Email List FAST! (3 Steps)

      👉 5 Step Action Guide To Get Paid Sharing Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills Online - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈

      Having an email list is critical to running a successful and healthy online business teaching what you know, love, and are passionate about.


      The beautiful thing about having an email list of quality (meaning they know, like, and trust you) is that the more your audience grows, the more money you can make in your business, and the more people you can help along the way.


      Anytime you do a launch, create a piece of content, write a book, or anything else, you can pitch it to your email list and they will be there to support you through thick and thin (assuming you’re building a quality relationship).


      But one of the biggest problems I run into all the time is “How do I build my email list!?”


      Look, there are many ways you could build an email list but when it comes to email list building, it’s quality over quantity.


      I’d much rather have a list of 500 people that are engaged and loyal than 10,000 people who never open an email.


      The truth is that building an email list does take time but when you do what I’m going to show you today, you will be able to build one faster and on autopilot without you even thinking about it!


      You will learn:

      • How to build a quality email list
      • What makes people join your list
      • How to attract the right people to your list
      • How to easily grow your list overtime on autopilot

      • 9 | Do This BEFORE Creating an Online Course

        👉 5 Step Action Guide To Get Paid Sharing Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills Online - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈


        Have you been hesitant to build an online course because you're afraid of putting all the work to create one just to hear crickets?


        This is incredibly common and I hear it all the time when helping people build their own online courses.


        The truth is that ANYBODY can build an online course and slap together some videos but not everyone can build a course that sells itself over and over again.


        I’ve been on both sides of the spectrum.


        It took me creating over 6 online courses until I made one that sold without ever meeting the person!


        It’s an incredible feeling to get a notification that someone paid you without you doing any extra work or meeting them and it never gets old - I want YOU to experience that.


        What will virtually guarantee your online course will sell before you create it are 2 things…

        1. Customer Research
        2. An Intriguing Course Outline

        3. Today, I’m going to show you how to do both of these and give you the frameworks to succeed BEFORE ever creating your first (or next) online course.

        4. 8 | Be More Confident on Camera TODAY (3 Steps)

          👉 5 Step Action Guide To Sell Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills on Autopilot - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈

          Video marketing is taking the world by storm and, ironically enough, the more people I work with in building their online businesses teaching things they know, love, and are good at, the more I see how big of an issue this is.

          Showing up on camera, being the face of your business, and teaching your students the valuable information you understand isn’t an easy thing to do, otherwise, everyone would do it.

          Look, there are many ways to build an online business, teaching what you know. The Big 3 however are podcasting, blogging, and YouTube videos.

          I have many friends who have created success through their podcasts and blogs without ever showing up on camera BUT there is no doubt that video is the most powerful of the 3.

          Show up on camera has many benefits that you can’t get from just podcasting or blogging.

          Here are a few from invideo.io’s website:

          • Marketers who use video grow revenue 49% faster than non-video users
          • One-third of all online activity is spent watching videos
          • 85% of the internet audience in the US watches videos online
          • Video marketers get 66% more qualified leads per year
          • Obviously, if you’re not showing up on camera in some way in your online business, not only are you missing out on a ton of leads and revenue, but the people that need you aren’t finding you as easy.

            Today, I’m sharing with you 3 steps to help you be more confident on camera.

          • 7 | What Nobody Tells You About Being Creative

            👉 5 Step Action Guide To Sell Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills on Autopilot - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈

            Whether you think you are a creative person or not - you are.

            Every single person on this planet is a creative person. You don’t have to be a Picasso or some fancy artist to be “creative”.

            Building an online business is all about being creative. Creating content, creating products, creating experiences, creating clients, and so on.

            Even conversations are examples of creativity. No matter what, we are always creating.

            But sometimes, as creators, we get into slumps. We get writer's block, creativity blocks, and run into barriers inside our minds thinking we’re not “good enough” or “capable enough” to do something.

            What if I told you that the best way to unlock your creativity, and the secret that nobody tells you about being creative, is that great artists steal?

            Ethically of course. But it’s true!

            That’s what today’s episode is all about. We’re diving into one of my all-time favorite books, Steal Like An Artist by Austin Kleon.

            If you haven’t read this book - do it!!!

            I’m going to share some of my favorite quotes from the book, then elaborate on some of the key points.

            You will learn:

            • How to steal like an artist
            • What copying really is and how to do it ethically
            • Why great artists steal
            • How to find your heroes so you can steal from them
            • How to be original when nothing is really original

            • 6 | Copywriting For Beginners: Tips & Secrets

              👉 5 Step Action Guide To Sell Your Knowledge, Passions, and Skills on Autopilot - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide 👈

              Copywriting is one of the most essential skills that we can develop as online business owners.

              I wish that I had invested more time, money, and effort into learning how to write good copy when I was beginning my online journey.

              Copywriting is what makes or breaks an online business because we’re not directly talking with people so we need to rely on our writing skills to persuade people to click, watch, and buy our content, products, and services.

              Copywriting is persuasive writing. So anytime you see a Facebook ad, magazine, blog post, landing page, sales page, etc. - That’s copy.

              And if it made you want to click or buy something from it, that’s GOOD copy.

              The sooner that we can develop the skill of copywriting, the sooner we can start getting clicks on our content, getting more opt-ins to join our email list, making more sales, and making a difference in people’s lives.

              Keep in mind that I’m not the best copywriter in the world BUT I have learned a ton about the craft and put in a lot of trial and error so you don’t have to.

              Without further ado, let’s dive into some copywriting tips, examples, and secrets.
