I have a philosophy that has made a HUGE difference in my life and business - and it has nothing to do with strategy, funnels, or ads.

Today I'm sharing one of my “mottos” that saved my mental health, made my launches more profitable, and helped me show up better for my clients. Plus, the one thing you should outsource before anything else.

This Week on the Get Paid Podcast:

• The unexpected philosophy I learned from a TikTok video that changed everything

• The #1 thing killing your launch energy (and the simple fix that costs less than $100/week)

• Why I deleted a certain app from my phone and what happened to my business

• The physical device that's better than any willpower hack

• How to train algorithms to work FOR you instead of against you

• My controversial decision that some people will hate (but saved my sanity)

I just wrapped up the best launch in my business history for Get Paid Marketing. And the wild part? It happened when everyone's talking about recession and how "high ticket is dead."

Today I'm pulling back the curtain on exactly what worked (and what didn't) in this launch, including the mindset shifts that changed everything and why I stopped caring about webinar numbers.

This is the raw, unfiltered debrief of how we exceeded our goal by 21% and what I'm doing differently next time.

This Week on the Get Paid Podcast:

• The exact breakdown of our launch strategy and results

• The one thought that changed everything about how I showed up

• Why we barely spent anything on ads (and still crushed our goals)

• My renewal strategy that brought back previous clients

• How showing multiple paths to success transformed my webinar conversions

• The costly mistake of not incentivizing pay-in-full (and how it hurt cash flow)

• Why I coached people on sales calls instead of just "selling"

• Get Paid Marketing waitlist: clairepells.com/waitlist

• Stacy Boehman, Brooke Castillo, Mariah Coz (mindset and strategy influences)

Do you know if your business can afford your next investment or are you hoping it all works itself out?

Today, Steph Crowder and I break down how to create a financial safety net in your business using nothing more than a spreadsheet. This is how you can relax a bit more and know you’re making pretty smart, grounded investment decisions. (No buyer’s remorse afterwards!)

This is how Steph went from “there’s no way I can afford that!” to realize she was more than fine (even in a worst-case scenario). 

This Week on the Get Paid Podcast:

• The exact spreadsheet Steph used to project revenue and expenses (without overcomplicating it)

• How she realized she was running a $450K/year business…with almost no profit

• What happened when we cut her projected launch revenue in half and she was still OK

• Why projecting income + expenses is more regulating than just having 6 months of savings

• What to include in your projections (especially if you still have a job or multiple revenue streams)

• The mindset shifts from “can I afford this?” to “what needs to be true to make this work?”

• Gusto (payroll software)

In her fourth appearance on the Get Paid Podcast, Dielle takes us through the funnel she implemented that took her from loathing the Ads Manager to skillfully running profitable evergreen webinars every other week.

Ever caught yourself saying, “I’ll get to ads… later, when I’m really ready”? Claire hears that line all the time. And honestly? That "ready" moment rarely shows up.

But while you're waiting for the stars to align, you're missing out on what Claire calls the "stock market effect" of running ads: long-term, compounding growth that happens when your ads quietly work in the background, building your list and your revenue without requiring constant hustle.

In this solo episode, Claire shares a story about a brilliant business coach friend who’s been “almost ready” for years, plus how GPM clients like DL Sharon, Gina Knox, and Steph Crowder finally scaled faster once they stopped waiting and started running ads.

This Week on the Get Paid Podcast:

• The real conversation Claire had (again) with a friend who’s been “just about to run ads” for years

• Why ads are less like a launch strategy and more like investing in the stock market

• How one client added $200K in a matter of weeks from cold traffic, plus high-ticket sales with no sales calls

• What happened when Claire’s own campaign flopped, and how feedback from cold leads helped her fix it

• How ads can keep your audience and revenue growing, even while you're offline or pivoting your business
