Avoiding distractions, comparisons, and insecurities during a launch.

Ever found yourself in a situation where you put a massive amount of effort into creating an amazing digital course or webinar and have marketed it brilliantly, only to realize that everyone around you is launching a similar offer at the EXACT same time? If this has happened to you, you know just how overwhelming it is! 

Well, my friend, I completely understand this feeling because it literally just happened to me when I launched my Subscribed Bootcamp! I felt like every heavy hitter in the industry was launching their own bootcamp at the same time, and honestly, I panicked. But I know now there was no reason to! Trust me – it’s a natural feeling, but you can't let your insecurities or urges to compare yourself to your peers get the best of you! 

I've never talked about this topic on the podcast before, but it's an important one. In this episode, I walk you through how I've managed these feelings through more than a few of my launches! I also share some tips on avoiding distractions during a launch and using this friendly competition to your advantage.

Make these strategies your own so that you can build a business free from overwhelm! 

Customizable ChatGPT prompts for crafting effective guided responses: 

Prompt #1 for if you often see students having issues finding your trainings:  

My students occasionally encounter difficulties accessing a weekly live video I host. Can you create a helpful and empathetic response explaining the common steps to troubleshoot this? Please include guidance on finding the video pinned to the Facebook Group… and tell them to make sure they’re connected to WIFI rather than data on their phone if the video is not streaming well. Also, add a note offering further assistance if these steps don't resolve the issue.

Prompt #2 for students who feel behind in your course: 

Write a compassionate and constructive response for students who have not been able to start my course and feel behind due to their life circumstances. The response should acknowledge their concerns, and provide suggestions on how to make the most of the course materials. Include the reminder students can go at their own pace because they have lifetime access to the course. Add in advice to download the step-by-step PDFs, and take advantage of personalized support options like the weekly Q&As I host. End the response inviting them to reach out with specific areas they’re struggling with, and tell them I am happy to help further. 

Prompt #3 for ensuring students can easily log into your course:

I need a guided response for technical support questions related to my students not being able to log into their course that’s hosted on Kajabi. The response should be easy to understand for non-technical users. Include this login link and steps to check their spam folder for the email containing their password details. Provide an option for them to reply if the problem persists.

I know how hard you work to create fabulous digital courses, memberships, coaching modules, and masterminds. So, I also know it's incredibly discouraging when you're struggling to sell these products online. My friend, selling products online is one of the most challenging aspects of owning an online business! And if you’re relying solely on your website's sales page, it can be even more difficult. 

Although sales pages are great (I use them too!), they don't always get the job done. The missing piece is often a face-to-face personal touch. And that's where webinars come in! Webinars are one of my favorite tools for combining your marketing with actual valuable content for your audience. Webinars are also perfect for sparking conversations, increasing your sales, building trust, and even growing your email list. 

I know – it almost sounds too good to be true! But believe me, the secret success of webinars is backed by real data from my business and from thousands of my students who have created digital courses and sold them through webinars. So, today, I'm lifting the curtain on preparing and perfecting your webinar! 

In this episode, I cover: 

• 9:54: Tips for understanding your ideal customer avatars (ICAs) 
• 13:38: My webinar promise from my previous launch of Digital Course Academy
• 16:20: A step-by-step guide for structuring your webinar 
• 22:21: How to craft exciting and fast-paced slides 
• 27:35: Advice for an efficient Q&A session 
• 31:59: Transforming your webinars from one-time events to lasting resources 
• 40:22: 3 tasks and action items to give to a VA when preparing for a webinar 
• 42:41: What is your pre-webinar ritual? 

Listen in and remember that webinars aren't just about selling. They're about connecting, inspiring, and empowering your audience. Trust me, you won't regret giving them a try!

As an entrepreneur, I completely understand that your business is your baby, and you've put in a ton of hard work to build it from scratch. So, the thought of handing over some of your responsibilities and bringing in a CEO can be pretty nerve-racking. But trust me, if you want to make a big impact on the world (which I know you do), you have to let others in and delegate those larger leadership roles! 

That's why I want to share with you all the lessons, tips, and strategies I've learned from my first-year with Jaws, my fabulous CEO. Now, before you think hiring a CEO is years away from where you are now, think again! Whether you're just starting out or want to make the leap to the next level, this conversation is for you. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – hiring is one of the best decisions you can make for your business! 

I don't believe there's any special prize for doing everything by yourself – it’s okay to ask for help. I promise you'll get to where you want to go so much faster with the right support! Just imagine the possibilities when you're free to shine in your zone of genius while your CEO handles the nitty-gritty. 

Today, you’ll hear about: 

• 3:43: What is an integrator? 
• 4:48: Being mindful of codependency to avoid emotional distractions

Recently, one of my consultants gave me a massive wake-up call by telling me that I'm making all my decisions from a place of fear. Well, no one wants to hear that! At first, this was really hard for me to take in, and to be honest, I felt a lot of shame. But then I realized he gave me this feedback so I could work through it and be the best version of myself possible! Which is, of course, exactly what I want for you! 

Now, my sweet friend, fear is one of the most challenging emotions to overcome, especially when you're faced with making big decisions for your business. Will this hurt someone's feelings? Is this going to affect my revenue? Am I going to look foolish in front of my team?

Trust me – I'm right there with you in my journey towards having complete confidence in my business decisions. So, in this episode, I share some strategies that have helped me understand the root of my fear, adjust my mindset, and make those brave unapologetic decisions.

My friend, you and I both know that entrepreneurship can get pretty lonely at times. But, lucky for us, having a community can be as small as two people who connect and support each other. And, let's face it, the pandemic taught us all about the importance of connection, both online and in-person. 

Being a part of a community is so much more important for small business owners than you might think! Community helps us keep going even when things get tough and allows us the opportunity to learn from an array of wonderful people. Plus, science has literally shown that we thrive the most when we have supportive people around us!

That's why I'm excited to introduce you to my guest today, Natalie Franke. She's a community-building mastermind and the Head of Community at Flodesk. Natalie has helped thousands of small business owners cultivate communities, and today, she's here to share her expertise with you. 

But, we acknowledge that stepping into a community can be a bit intimidating, which is why we also chat about Natalie's fabulous book, Gutsy. It's your guidebook to uncovering the unapologetic courage within you and building up the confidence to make your unique impact on this world. 

In this episode, we discuss: 

• 10:11: Why community is an entrepreneur's secret to success 
• 16:05: The inspiring story behind Rising Tide Society 
• 22:38: Tips for tapping into a community to fuel your small business and your emotional wellbeing
• 28:37: The first steps for getting involved in a community 
• 32:17: How to conquer any anxiety or negativity around online communities 
• 41:27: Advice on taking a leap toward your dreams, shaking off fear, and making the change you desire

In this episode, I dive into:

As an entrepreneur, I bet you've heard about market saturation a million times. Well, we’re talking about it some more today, BUT we’re focusing on reframing your emotions and feelings around it. Because trust me sweet friend, with the right mindset, you can succeed in any market, no matter how saturated it may seem!

So, why am I talking about this? I see many hopeful students in Digital Course Academy who hit the brakes because they feel like the market is just too crowded for them. But, let me tell you, that's simply not true – and I have proof! 

When I started as a social media manager nearly 15 years ago, it felt like every other person I talked to was doing the exact same thing as me. But, I didn't let the noise of oversaturation get to me, and I was able to grow the business I have today. And I know you can do it too!

In this episode, I’m diving into: 

• 3:44: Questions to ask yourself that challenge the idea that the market is too saturated 
• 5:24: Math that proves making sales is all about honing your marketing skills 
• 12:20: Tips for embracing what makes you unique and attracting your ideal audience 
• 15:23: How I focus on my niche rather than worry about a saturated market 
• 19:14: Reminders to help you break free from this false narrative

Listen in and kick off your dream business. Remember, the market may be saturated, but your uniqueness and what you bring to the table are just waiting to shine through!

Believe me – the success of your business is SO dependent on how passionate your team is about their work. But it's not just about being productive; it's about staying motivated, prioritizing your well-being, and preventing burnout. And I want you to catch any signs of unhappiness in your company before it's too late!

It's amazing how much easier it is to tweak things when you can actually look at why stress levels are creeping up or how much happiness is starting to dip.

If you know me, you know that deep down, I'm a huge introvert. To be honest, the idea of promoting my book, Two Weeks Notice, and doing interviews, speaking on stages, and going to networking events was terrifying!

Today, I share my tips on stepping out of your comfort zone, embracing the unknown, and making 2024 your most successful year yet. 

During my “Year of Yes, I took risks, faced rejection, and welcomed vulnerability. And guess what? My business skyrocketed, my personal growth was massive, and my book launch was epic! Now, my sweet friend – it's your turn. 

Tune in for: 

• 7:00: The key to getting super clear on your goals 
• 10:23: How to appreciate your growth and the lessons learned no matter the outcome

• 17:31: Tips for embracing discomfort and saying yes to every opportunity 
• 18:23: Understanding the power of in-person connections (especially for an online business!)
