  • Can't Get Quality Leads? Try This!

    Download: 5 Steps To Sell Your Knowledge on Autopilot Without Ads - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide


    If you want to have an online business, wait, I mean ANY business. 


    You need to understand how to bring leads to that business that are interested in what you do or have to offer so that they can ultimately buy things from you.   


    But when it comes to lead generation, many people struggle... Just like the old version of me.  


    When I started, I had no idea how to bring leads to my online business and I kept coming from a place of getting. So I became obsessed with how to get leads so that I could grow my online business.   


    I began watching videos, reading, blog posts, listening to podcasts, and so on.   Inside all that research, I read two books that made a huge impact on my ability to generate quality leads.   


    The first was a prosperous coach...  


    Inside of it, Rich Litvin shares that we don't "get" clients, we don't even "attract" clients, instead, we create clients.  


    Now that book is for coaches about how to grow their coaching practices, but whether you're a coach or not, the same thing still applies to your business.   


    The other book was the Go-Giver and that book is all about giving in order to succeed in life and business.   


    Today, I'm going to show you how to apply these principles to your lead generation strategy so that you can make a bigger impact while also growing your online business.

  • The REAL Reason Your Copywriting Won’t Sell

    Learn how to sell your knowledge on autopilot in 5 simple steps - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/guide

    Copywriting is hard... IF you don't do what I'm about to show you.

    Well-written sales copy is an underrated skill and it's probably the most important skill that you can develop as an online business owner.

    Great copy is what causes your target audience to take action. Whether that's to buy your book by your online course or digital product or just to book a call with you.

    I'm talking about writing in a way that gets inside their head and causes them to think, "I feel like this guy is reading my mind!"

    Now understand that I'm not a freelance copywriting "expert" but I can tell you that I have attempted many times to write sales copy trying to sell digital products and ended up getting 0 results. I was trying to find the "perfect sales copy formula" that was magically going to sell my course.

    Understand that it's not so much about the formula because there are many different ways to write great sales pages. Great copy lies in understanding and taking the time to study your target audience's deepest desires, frustrations, beliefs, and interests.

    Once I understood that sales copy became so much easier for me.

    The idea is to find those desires, beliefs, frustrations interests, and challenges, copy them, and essentially paste them into your sales pages, social media posts, and emails that you send out.

    Once I did that, I was able to create a sales page that actually converted.

    Today, I'm going to share with you a few simple ways to find your target audience's biggest challenges, hopes, and dreams, capture them, and then apply them to your sales copy so that you can become a better copywriter today.

  • 26. Time Blocking Your Google Calendar For Productivity

    Time blocking is the best practice you can do if you want to increase your productivity and live your life with more intention. And what better tool to use than your Google Calendar?  


    Download the Performance & Productivity Planner here- https://www.profityourknowledge.com/planner 


    Google Calendar is the best tool to use when time blocking because it allows you to color-code, set reminders, and repeat tasks with the simple click of a button.  


    You can also access your Google Calendar on any device at any time.  But there is a lot of stigma around time blocking. People say they get lost in the setup of time blocking and end up wasting time, that it’s too rigid, it’s overwhelming, and they spend too much time on it.  


    This is totally understandable, but I’m going to challenge that belief.  


    Today, I’m going to share with you how I use a fully time-blocked Google Calendar that doesn’t overwhelm me and gives me more structure and freedom in my life and how you can do the same.

    Grow your email list with more searchable, valuable content using this content planning template - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/content   


    Growing your email list is one of the core things we as online business owners should be focusing on! Specifically, growing your list on auto-pilot.   


    It took me a long time to understand how to grow an email list so that I could add value, offer my products and services, and create an automated income stream.  


    It wasn’t until I started creating regular, free, valuable, evergreen content and, in it, offered something valuable to my audience (i.e. the lead magnet) that I was able to start building my list.  


    And the great thing about evergreen content like a podcast, blog, or youtube channel is that it can be searched by people anywhere in the world at any time and by making your lead magnets in the way I’m going to show you today you get to create a more scalable business!

    Grab your FREE content planning template here - https://www.profityourknowledge.com/content 


    When I was trying to find my niche and market myself to the world, I struggled. I think I jumped between 6-7 different niches until I landed on teaching online business.   


    Truth is, I was hesitant because I was scared. I thought, “What do I know about online business?” “There are so many other business coaches out there, how am I going to stand out?” So I was trying to create something new that’s “never been done before” and because of that, I stayed stuck.  


    Then I spoke with a friend of mine named Tyson who shared with me some of the best marketing advice I have ever received.  When I heard this, something clicked inside of me.  


    He said, “Model the cake; innovate the icing.”  


    Today, I’m going to share with you why that was so valuable.

  • 23. How To Use VidIQ For Better YouTube SEO

    Struggling with getting found on YouTube and want to learn how to use VidIQ to grow your channel? I can relate...

    For over a year I struggled with getting views on my YouTube videos. I was uploading every week as people told me, even daily for a while.

    And I was pouring my heart into the content thinking that just putting out content was enough to grow my channel but I was wrong. I made the mistake, like so many other content creators do, of not doing research before creating a video.

    Frustrated with my lack of growth, I started researching how to grow a YouTube channel and found a man named Rob Wilson who introduced me to his company VidIQ.
