Strategies that Stack

On this episode of Make it Marketable, our host will be discussing strategies for maximizing returns from participating in a summit, and how to make the most out of your time and intellectual property as a speaker. You'll learn how to decide what to speak on, how to optimize your freebie or low ticket offer, and how to build an audience around a specific topic. The episode will also touch on the benefits of participating in a summit, such as networking opportunities to build relationships with like-minded people, and increasing your brand recognition as an expert on specific topics. Plus, there will be overlap with the previous episode on bundle offers and why to join or not to join, making this a must-listen for anyone looking to increase their selling power.

In this episode, we kick off a three-part series on bundles and summits. Specifically, we'll be focusing on being a bundle participant. Bundles are curated collections of digital products, offered at a discounted or free price. Being a member of a bundle allows you to reach a larger audience, generate more leads and has potential for affiliate sales and commissions.If you're interested in joining a bundle, remember to focus on contributing a product that aligns with the bundle's theme as opposed to creating something new for the sake of participation. Most importantly, grab your favorite cold brew and come join us for some actionable tips on how to make the most out of participating in bundles.

On this episode of Make it Marketable, the importance of a detailed marketing plan is explored.

A poor marketing strategy or no marketing plan can lead to consequences such as a lack of direction and wasted resources. The Conversion Catalyst Club offers a step-by-step marketing strategy for attracting the right customers.

What it means to "sell behind the scenes"

Selling behind the scenes is something you hear a lot of coaches throw around - but they rarely tell you what they mean or how it's done! Honestly until I figured it out - I thought they were saying that as a way to inflate numbers (lol - I swear I'm not a cynical person!)

So - what is selling behind the scenes? Selling behind the scenes is most simply put - when you sell or make offers in a way that isn't necessarily public facing. Meaning you aren't posting a promotion, or emailing your entire list about an offer. You're making private offers!

Now you're probably wondering how this is done. There are a ton of ways that you can sell behind the scenes. I outlined three on Stories and I'm going to share three with you here too!
