Nugget: Talk Authentically and Build Genuine Connections
bonusStop treating everybody like a number; go back to having conversations.This starts when you're a list building. This starts when you're attracting your followers. This starts just like it does in the real world. You greet them. You have a conversation. You ask questions. You get a feedback loop. You actually get to know one another.If you want to have a smaller list, that's more impactful, a list that’s full of people that will actually buy your offers, you need to rewind back and stop treating people like a one and a zero. Stop looking at the vanity metrics.Lean in and actually have real conversations again. When we're engaged in real conversations what naturally happens is we start to know our people, we know how to message them and how to guide them into our offer and you’re going to make a bigger impact in those people's lives.Resources:Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

Nugget: A Great Launch Starts With a Great Runway
bonusAs experts, we live with whatever our service is every day.It's nearly a hundred percent of what we're thinking about for our business.But the people that we're talking to, it might be a fraction of 1% or even less of what they were even thinking about in their daily life today.So what we need to do is create a runway of awareness.We need to create desire, curiosity, and excitement. We need to get into the conversations that people are already having so that we can create the connection ahead of time and can guide people into that buying decision.In order to do that, we need to have a runway.Resources: Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

Nugget: Don’t Wait—Get Your Offers Out Now
bonusStop being a perfectionist! This is hard for all of us, especially those that are high performers. We want to have the message just right and we want to get it out in front of all the right people. And this is where a lot of times we trip ourselves up. We’re so busy trying to get things perfect that we don’t get our message out there at all. The more we have fun, the more we get creative and put ourselves out there and speak to our audience, the more they’re going to connect with us and have those conversations.You have something amazing to share with this offer, so get it out there!Resources: Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

Nugget: Pause, Listen, and Stay Open
bonusOne of the key pieces of being successful in marketing is having an open mind.Now, I know a lot of us think we have an open mind, but when we're presented with a new idea, a new challenge, just something new that's in our business, our natural tendency is to say wait, stop, I don't know, that's not going to work for me.All these different things, all these beliefs that we have about our business and why it won't work or why that strategy is not the best for us without even really looking at it from an open mind and open perspective.You know, the best marketers in the world and the best people in business are adaptable.They adapt to changes that happen in their business. They have an open mind, they try things out, they test things out, they give it a really good go and then make the determination there if it's best for their business.So when you're approaching your business and anything new that you encounter in your marketing comes up, I want you just to stop and listen and have that open mind. Listen first before you make any judgment, before you put the hands up and say, this won't work for me. Listen with an open mind first and then from there, try it out, put yourself out there, take those steps, you know, find a mentor that's going to help you along the way to really give it a good try before you make that determination. But have that open mind first, that's the first key step because an open mind can lead to so many opportunities in your business, but you have to be open to listen. So keep that open mind.

3 Pillars That Lead to Success
When it comes to marketing and sales, a lot of people fail to attract the right people. Then the people in their audience are not ready, willing and able to purchase when they do make an offer.Then what happens? They really get frustrated, overwhelmed, and confused and feel let down. They put their heart and soul into everything. and they know that what they do can help, but something there along the way is just in misalignment and doesn’t connect with their audience.In this episode, we are sharing the three pillars to success. These are three things that need to be aligned and working together in order to have success in your business and lead people to buy your offers.Find the full show notes here: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/3-pillars-that-lead-to-success/Resources:Problem/Solution Framework – create list builders that solve your audience’s problems- making them highly desirable, and allow you to build your list faster!Influenced Course – Positively influence your audience and guide them into a buying decision with less effort Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

Nugget: How Learning From Mistakes Leads to Success
bonusEmbrace your mistakes! Celebrate them and learn from them.This is important. I really want you to celebrate your mistakes because you're one of the few that took action that got out of your head that made a decision and moved forward.You took that step.And, when you take that step, you have a new point of view, you have a new lens from where you were before, you'll never go back to where you were before. Because now, even if it was a mistake, even if it was something that didn't work quite perfectly and that's the great thing when it comes to marketing your business when it comes to putting yourself out there into the world like that, that perspective will allow you to pivot adjust change. Because marketing is testing, and the only way that you're going to test is you have to be vulnerable enough to put out imperfection, putting out things that are not perfect.After all, it's the market feedback that we don't have until we put our thing out into the world.So go ahead and make mistakes. That is how we learn.

Nugget: Keep Your Membership Simple and Effective
bonusMemberships don’t need to be complicated.One of the biggest challenges we hear from people that are considering a membership is that they're afraid a membership is going to bog them down. They think they're going to be overwhelmed, it's going to be complicated, and it’s going to take all their time and effort.I want to remind you that a membership does not have to be complicated. In fact, some of the best memberships are super simple. They just do one thing, they solve one problem, they fix one challenge that their audience is experiencing.So,if you’re thinking about putting together a membership, think about that one problem, that one challenge that your audience may be having and how you can solve that problem.What could that be?It's designed to help people think through what a membership might look like for them. No matter your business or membership type, the goal of the workshop is to get you moving down that path as quickly as possible.Resources: Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

Nugget: Focus Up and Find Your Flow for Content Creation
bonusIf you want to be productive, you need to stop multitasking!Did you know that switching tasks and multitasking takes a lot of energy? Each time you switch tasks your brain has to play catch up.Instead of trying to do everything at once or trying to jump from thing to thing, sit down and really designate time to accomplish each thing. Allow yourself to get into a flow state. When you do that, it's going to allow your creativity to shine, it's going to allow you to really impact your audience with a clear message and it's going to save time, energy and sanity for you as well. It's going to be a better overall experience for everyone.So, get into that flow state rather than that haphazard multitasking state. It's going to improve your productivity...especially when it comes to your content creation!Resources: Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

Nugget: Adapting to Change Is the Key to Growth
bonusThe moment something changes, that just means the rules of the game have shifted a bit. What we have to do is just lean into that and adapt.Okay, what are the new rules and what's the game now? What do we need to do? What are we evolving, pivoting, changing so that we can still be on the cutting edge compared to everybody else?There are still buyers in the market that want our thing and every time something shifts and change and everyone's like, “oh my goodness the sky is falling” quietly say to yourself, you know what, what opportunity does this change create? What opportunity does this change create? Because I need to see where the new opportunities are, where the new advantages are, and then I can just slide right in while everybody else is pining over how things used to be.Here’s the thing, anybody that comes in new today or new tomorrow, they don't know how things used to be and they're going to be successful. They're going to figure it out like where they are, right this second and I want you to do the exact same thing because there are always going to be changes.Marketing is always going to be evolving, shifting and molding so we can't be caught up in how we did things 5 years ago, last year or even six months ago.Embrace change, that is so vitally important especially when it comes to marketing because it's all about being adaptive.

Nugget: Change Happens—It’s How You Respond That Matters
bonusI'm here to encourage you to embrace change.Change is going to happen. No one likes it, and especially in our business and with our marketing, change can really shake things up.

Nugget: Walk Your Audience Through the Buyer’s Journey
bonusSales is a process! It’s taking your audience through the buyer's journey by building like, know and trust with your audience.The first thing is to connect with your audience so that they have an opportunity to get to know who you are as individual.This is an opportunity for you to share a little bit about yourself, your family, things that you like to do outside of work… things like hobbies or what you like to do to relax. Just give your audience a little bit of insight as to who you are and that will allow you to connect with them. Another way to connect with your audience is to invite them into your world by sharing a bit of what goes on behind the scenes. Share exactly what you are doing in your business, share “a day in the life”, give them a sneak peek as to what life looks like for you, and invite them into your world. Doing this builds that like, know and trust so that they're more likely to work with you in the future. To help build trust with your audience, work on positioning yourself as an expert. This shows them that you are the go-to person and it builds that trust and knowing that they have someone that they can rely on if they have a challenge in a particular area that they're seeking help for.So by positioning yourself as an expert, it shows your audience that you have their back, you have the knowledge, the skills, and the expertise to help them and that is going to lead them to your offer.Remember, sales is a process, so be strategic in your marketing and help your audience build like, know, and trust with you!

Nugget: Take Time to Learn New Things
bonusGive yourself grace!You know what? You might be in a learning phase right now. And that is okay! Paul and I always talk about taking action and implementing, and that is super important, you definitely need to do that in your business to get things done, but there is a point where you are going to be learning new things, learning new terms, learning new marketing strategies, learning stuff that you’ve never been exposed to before, and you need to take the time to learn those things.So, if you’re in that learning phase right now, that is totally okay, you’re totally where you need to be. Be open-minded, get exposed to different things that you might never have been exposed to before, see things in a different way and take all that information in.Then after you take all that information in, you can ask more questions, you can ask for help, you can work on the strategy piece, but if you’re in that learning phase right now, totally be okay with just being there.Now go ahead and get started. Start learning, be open minded and then take action on things that make sense for you.Resources:Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt

Nugget: Teach Less and Watch Conversions Grow
bonusAs online business owners, it's easy to get caught up in sharing ALL the details and value with our audience. But when launching a challenge or promotion, less teaching is more.Because if you overteach during the challenge, they won't need your offer anymore. They'll feel satisfied and move on.In your launch, give your audience small wins to open their eyes to what's possible and why they need it. But don't share all the steps and details. Save that for your offer. This is where the full transformation will happen. Teach less, convert more.

Nugget: Deliver Value Without Overdelivering
bonusThe common mistake that people go through when launching is to over-deliver.They get really excited and want to give value.So they give their audience everything that they got.They overwhelm their audience with so much information that they are probably not ready to make that buying decision.They’ll say: “You gave me so much to think about. I'm gonna work on this first before they go into your paid offer.”So, deliver value to your audience and focus on what things they need to be aware of that's gonna help them with solving their problem.But save the “How” to solve that problem for the paid offer.Give your audience a great launch experience, but not give away everything.

Making Social Media, List Building, and Launches Work Together

Nugget: Why Quality Matters More Than Quantity
bonusWhat we put out is what we're going to attract. This is so true when it comes to our list-building activities.Too often we see people trying to build their list the wrong way, they're trying to get as many people as possible to join their list and they neglect the quality of the list. They put out random things to get random individuals and those random individuals might not really be interested in our offers.I want you to think about that.

Nugget: Selling with Integrity and Making a Difference
bonusLet's change our perspective about selling because when we put our offer out into the marketplace, we have an incredible opportunity to help others with the transformation that they're seeking.If fact, when we hold back and we don't put our product, service, solution, out into the market, in a way it’s kind of greedy because you're not sharing your goodness with the world.We need to reprogram our thoughts around the concept of selling because it's not a negative thing.

bonusHow should you price your membership? What type of content and deliverables should you create?When you're considering creating a membership site or any type of offer, start with the price itself. Why?

On top of that, consider the perceived value of your offers.An email vs a PDF vs a Facebook live vs 1 on 1 training.Sometimes it's the same amount of time and energy space that you're giving, but the perceived value is much higher. What can you do to purposely control your time, your energy, and your financial resources so you can get the highest return possible?Look at your content, create your membership based on what will be sustainable for you.

Nugget: Make Conversations Count with Clarity and Purpose
bonusDo you want to create content that will actually attract the right audience?“Well, of course, Paul!”, right?Then you need to be intentional with your conversations.A lot of us put random content out there just to get something, anything out!Or we get overwhelmed and don't do anything at all because,in the moment,we're busy trying to create this perfect thing, something that we think might be relevant and we end up freezing up.Instead of doing either of those things, we need to give ourselves time to be intentional and plan out what we’re saying.The key is looking at our potential clients, the people that are going to buy our products or services and figuring out what is relevant to them. Then, instead of putting randomness out into the world, we can have clear intentional conversations with them. So, take the time, map it out and give yourself space to be intentional.How can you be more intentional with your conversations?Resources: Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

What Can Make or Break Your Launch Success
A lot of us get caught up in the launch wanting to give so much value, that we forget that this is just a sales mechanism.And when you overwhelm your audience with your content, with too much information, you are leaving them afraid to commit to the paid offer that might be even more extensive and complex.The worst part is that most people don't even realize that they self-sabotage by overdelivering content and by giving it all away already during the launch.In this episode, we are discussing how you can really give value to your audience during your launches without overwhelming them, position yourself as the expert, and lead them to making an informed buying decision.Find the full shownotes here: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/this-will-make-or-break-your-launch-3/Resources: Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

The Key Factor That Will Make or Break Your Launch
bonusCreate a membership that isn’t going to weigh you down! When you build a membership, you have the opportunity to lean in and be purposeful on what the deliverables are for your offers, you’re in control of what you’re putting into the world.For us, when it comes to membership sites, we're very conscious about protecting our time, we're very conscious about protecting our energy resources.You need to set your own boundaries!What deliverables can you put into the market where you can create the membership site or the service that you desire, that you can sustain long term? Truly the most important thing we can do as entrepreneurs is to have boundaries. You're the asset, you need to protect yourself so that you can serve more people long term versus being totally burned out. So go ahead and get to work. Figure out your boundaries and what you can offer that is sustainable and then put it into action.
