A note on selling digital offers

Published about 1 year ago • 1 min read

I remember once spending months creating a course I thought was gonna be a knockout success.

Before launching I was already picturing my first 7-figure year and how I'd spend all the money I'd be making.

After months of crafting the perfect course that solved literally every problem the ICP had...

... weeks slaving over the sales page, promo emails, and social posts...

... I was ready to set it live.

I hit publish, sent the promos, and waited.

And waited. And waited.

At the end of the whole thing, I managed to make 4 sales from an email list of around 2000 people.

My dreams fo 7-figure dominance were dead, my morale was the lowest it had ever been.

I'd spent months on this thing and had barely anything to show for it.

Still, it was a good lesson on how to actually launch new products.

Now, I take a completely different approach which...

  • Cashflows quickly
  • Has actual validation
  • Takes as little as a morning to set up

I've put a video together on it below if you want to improve your digital product processes.

There’s a very specific stress that comes from not knowing what you’re going to sell next. You feel it when revenue dips and you think... “Shit… I don’t actually have anything lined up.” You feel it when you open your email tool and just stare at the screen. Not because you don’t want to sell, but because you don’t know what makes sense to sell right now. You feel it when you’ve already promoted your main offer, and all you can do is promote the exact same thing again. You know most people...

How many people on your email list do you think are actually ready to buy high-ticket right now? ... Not “interested.”... Not “watching.... Not “saving it for later.” I mean genuinely ready. Like, they've got a credit card in their hand just looking for somewhere to spend their cash? The real number is small. Usually around 1–3%. And yet, for years, we were all taught to build our businesses as if all our effort should go to hgh ticket alone. ... Run ads.... Post content.... Do outreach.......
