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.

Let’s not dress this up. If your revenue didn’t grow this year, it wasn’t... ... the algorithm... your niche... buyer psychology magically shifting overnight.... “summer slowdown” or “Q4 fatigue”. It was your model. The game changed, and most people didn’t. Case in point for this. I know a guy whose entire business is webinars. He sells them, teaches them, built his whole identity on them. This year? His numbers tanked and he intrduced a new "$47 webinar" to validate serious buyers. I know...

So I just did a breakdown analysis for the GM+ crowd (you can join us with a special BFCM deal here). It was a funnel teardown of a chap running LinkedIn ads, and to be blunt... the approach is awful. This guy has made pretty much all of the mistakes you can make... Ads that generate curiosity but zero serious intent No clarity on what he’s actually selling An application that doesn’t explain the next steps Running the whole thing at “50 percent off”, which only attracts bargain hunters He’s...
