"GivE AwAY FrEe VAlUe"...


Stop giving your secrets away for free.

You've worked hard to devise those secrets and you're cheating yourself if you're just putting it out there without asking for anything back.

Yeah yeah, I know that some marketing "leader" who works for one of the biggest brands out there has told you this is the way.

And I know you've seen the engagement that post gets so you think it's trustworthy.

Here's the thing.

Most of the time, the common advice is created by people who either...

  1. Have a salary and so don't need to worry about making immediate revenue
  2. Work in a business that has funding or existing large revenue so they can play the "6 months to nurture a lead" game
  3. Haven't done the work and are just repeating what they've seen the big accounts say

I'm greedy and needy.

I need to see daily sales happening in the biz or I start questioning what I'm doing.

And there's only one way to make sure that everything you create is pushing people towards those sales.

Don't tell people how to do the thing, provide proof you can do the thing.

Give people proof you know your shiz, to build excitement. Then tell them how they can do it within the paid offer.

It might seem villainous, but honestly it's the best way to get sales with people who will actually use what you give them.

When you're handing shiz out for free, people won't use it.

There's no perceived value there.

But... talk about what this thing does for them. Show them the results and talk about the transformation it provides and they get excited.

When you get people excited you see 2 things happen.

  1. More people will buy
  2. More of those people will engage with the thing

How do you do this?

One of the reasons I build growth models around the ACCER system is because it helps you break down what should be said at each stage.

Too many people are giving out the full system and secret at the attract stage in a fruitless effort to attract people by showing value.

What the attract stage should be doing is talking about a problem and explaining that something you're doing can remove it.

That gets the click to the capture/convert stage which is where you show proof that the system you use can get the result the person wants.

And so on.

Each stage of ACCER has one job, to get people to the next stage.

Building these models makes it easy to filter down to the right message to deliver and so increase the CTR and excitement of your customers.

I've seen it work.

It's why I'm making $8 for every $5 I spend on ads on the front end alone.

It's why one person I'm helping is making $200 / day on autopilot.

It's why another is doing simple product launches to list segments and clearing $10k+.

And why another is attracting people with low-ticket items and selling them on higher ticket $20k+ packages.

If you're fed up of offering free information and getting nothing back for it, check out the offers below.

They'll help you understand how to actually make money from your list based on the system that's working for hundreds of others.

Yo! So I saw this recent email from Bootstrapped Growth about increasing revenue with upsells. I'm a big fan of upsells to improve AoV and cover your ad spend. One of the tips in the newsletter was to introduce family or team pricing. I've seen this work really well for a business-focused community I worked with in the past. The community was all about increasing conversions, it was $97 / month to join and had about 350 members. So not doing badly by any measure. Anyway, when I was chatting...

I'm gonna let you in to a little secret about effective email sequences today. This is the core of all of the email sequences I create, and the reason why they help people print money. It's also one of the key elements I'll be explaining in the upcoming email marketing workshop. This approach is at the core of the below success. In the above, we created a simple 2-week email sequence and sent it to a list that hadn't been emailed in 2 years. But in those 2 weeks, we reactivated the list and...

It's the big headline for most offers out there. "How to get [THING YOU WANT] without [THING YOU DON'T]". There are countless versions of this out there that cross industries, offers, and benefits. For example... How to lose weight without exercising How to find top tier investments without researching How to collect more clients without pitching Most of the time this falls into the template of get big benefit without time or money investment. For most of us, that's gonna fall into the realm...
