Almost every eCommerce store owner needs to pay for some traffic so that they can get the sales that they want. But this year, our costs have grown as our results have been shrinking.

A few months ago, it became clear to me that what we were doing to get affordable traffic was becoming less and less effective, and I was going to have to get a new strategy. Listen in as our Inner Circle coach Cathy Hayhurst and I share the strategy we're using that's getting us the best quality traffic for the lowest price ever. Grab a pen, because you'll want to take some notes. We'll tell you what we're doing - our results, and how you can apply the strategy to your business. And if it sounds good to you, we'll tell you how you can get the brand new version of Traffic Bootcamp, and work on it live in our upcoming Master Class series.

Do you see others hitting that magic Million Dollar mark and wonder how they did it?

If you do, or even if you're not there yet, I want you to listen to this convo I had with D'Shawn Russell, the Founder of Southern Elegance Candle Co.

As you listen, I want you to really "hear" what D'Shawn shares about 3 things.

First, how to tell a story with such authenticity that it's almost effortless, and creates sticky customers

Second, how to think about your business in a way that makes you feel powerful, brave, and confident.

Lastly, listen closely to how many times D'Shawn shares that she failed on the first attempt at so many of the things that ultimately moved the needle.

Grow up your Business + get more Profit

Most of us start our Businesses because we love we've learned we can make money doing something we love.

We turn a hobby or a passion into a business, and it's fun. We can't wait to get to work each day and we see opportunities everywhere!

It's all fun and games until one day we wake up and we realize we're exhausted.

It happens to all of us, and it's a sure sign that it's time to transition from a hobby mindset to thinking like a CEO.

Sounds scary? Listen in as Wendy Batten walks us through the steps we can take, and shares the ROI you'll enjoy when you take control and Grow up your Business!

The fastest way to get the results you want

If you've ever found yourself trying "all the things" in an effort to get the results you want, you're in good company. I think it happens to all of us at one time or another.

When this happens, most of us jump into action and we try a bunch of things to see if we can move the needle. But really, that's not usually going to solve your problem.

The truth is that you'll improve your chances of being successful if you stop and take some time to figure out why you're not making progress. Do this, and instead of throwing spaghetti at the wall, you'll know what you need to do to fix your problem.

It sounds simple, and I know that it doesn't always feel simple, so I grabbed Tina Bar On, who leads our Member Success Team, and together we outlined a strategy that anyone can use.

If you've been afraid to simplify your product selection and slash your inventory costs, you're not alone. But before you rule it out, listen to what can happen when you rip off the bandaid and slash your inventory.

In 2020 Alexandra had her best sales month ever and finally cracked a $100K year.

Even though she was excited to reach a big milestone, she felt like she was on the verge of a breakdown.

She had several product lines, and restocking took hours each week. She was teaching online classes, selling breast pump parts, toys, carriers, and more.

Managing inventory and listing new products took a huge amount of her time each week.

She simply could not get everything done. And, she couldn't see how she could grow her business, make money, and keep her sanity.

So, she slashed her product lines down to one category. It was a bold move that paid off in a big way.

Listen in as Alexandra shares the steps she took, and how a few months later, her sales have tripled!
