Ep 558Ask Steph: How can I get potential students to see the value in my online group program?

Today I am answering a listener question around overcoming the objection of perceived value and support offered within this listener's online program. Here are my tips on how to address this common problem:- Identifying the audience categories who will value your offer, so you can avoid selling it to people who won't ever see the value.- How to show your potential buyers why they should value your product. - How to strategically create a bonus that overcomes a key objection—so the perceived value of your offer goes up in their eyes.

Ep 557What is Imperfect Action? This is how it's been the secret ingredient in building my business

Welcome to the very first episode of Imperfect Action. When I was coming up with a name for the show, I thought about what my superpower in business has been—that I take action before I'm ready, before I have it all figured out, and I learn from my mistakes. Today, I'm sharing what Imperfect Action looks like to me: - How we tend to make up stories about why we can't do something yet.- The myth about feeling ready to do something—and how to actually become ready. - Why we can't confuse action with productivity.
