  • How Can You Sell When All Clients Want Is To Be Safe (And Do It In Five Steps) - Part 2
    Dec 17 2022

    Struggling to sell your info products?
    One of the biggest reasons why many solopreneurs don't sell enough is because they hit a wall. They think that it's hard to sell (or that their products are not good enough). Many creators give up. The wall feels overwhelming. But the wall is not made of concrete.

    You can break the wall (If you know how).
    Because the wall is made up of exactly what we discussed in the previous episode -- the four-letter F-Word, and if you understand this, you can dismantle this seemingly mighty wall just like a tent. And then, you will unlock the secret that will help you sell more and bigger info products and courses.

    How to break the wall (and sell your online courses)?
    It turns out that you don't need to break this wall. If you do exactly what you learn in this episode, you will see the wall magically disappear. And your clients will do that themselves. Here's what you'll learn in this episode:

    1. The five-step process to remove fear
    2. How to handle clients like an eight-year-old (and help your clients buy)
    3. Learn the different kinds of proof you can use (and how they will impact your sale)

  • The Secret F-Word Why Clients Don’t Buy Your Products (And How to Sell More) - Part 1
    Nov 27 2022

    Why do clients NOT buy?
    Clients, like all humans, are predictably irrational. That's something we know, thanks to Dan Ariely. But why do we chase them away? Well, chasing clients away sounds more irrational than them not buying. But why will business owners chase away clients? We want clients to come and buy our products and services. That's why we sell them on our websites.

    Yet, we shoo them away when they come.
    No way! I don't chase away my clients. I do everything so that I can keep their attention. Maybe you are. As it turns out, many websites and sales pages chase away clients more than attract them. And entrepreneurs do that unknowingly.

    So, how can I stop chasing away clients?
    It turns out that the answer is simpler than you imagined. Just stop doing this - the four-letter F-Word. No, it's not what you think. In this episode, you'll learn how to stop chasing away clients. Specifically, you'll learn the following:

    • What is the F-Word that we unknowingly use all the time?
    • The three specific ways we send away clients (even those that came to you looking for help)
    • The psychology behind the F-Word (and how you can avoid them)
