Online Marketing Podcast

As 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.Resources:Challenge Launch Challenge -We’ll pull back the curtain and show you exactly what we've been doing the past couple of years with Challenges & Launches and led us to make a million dollars this year!

When you’re feeling stressed or overwhelmed in your business, always remind yourself:There is probably an easier way to do things. So don’t get bogged down by past decisions and commitments that no longer serve you. Look for solutions and systems that already exist to make your life less stressful. It's probably a method, a process, a system that you can buy into, or a person where you can outsource and get that thing layered off of you.Give yourself permission to find an easier route.Resources:Challenge Launch Challenge -We’ll pull back the curtain and show you exactly what we've been doing the past couple of years with Challenges & Launches and led us to make a million dollars this year!

As entrepreneurs, we often feel pressure to get things perfect the first time. But the truth is, we learn and improve by repeating our efforts. Going through the process again allows us to get valuable feedback from our audience on what worked and what didn’t. So we can then make small adjustments to deliver even more value for the next time. Rather than chasing perfection, focus on constant improvement.Rinse and repeat your marketing, promotions, and launches and improve each time you’re doing it.Resources:Challenge Launch Challenge -We’ll pull back the curtain and show you exactly what we've been doing the past couple of years with Challenges & Launches and led us to make a million dollars this year!

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on our highest-converting challenge launch. We took a chance and launched our first public challenge with just a week of planning. Despite the short runway, it was a success. By learning from our mistakes and feedback, we were able to improve the challenge and generate over six figures just six months later. The key is to not strive for perfection, but instead get started and improve over time based on experience and feedback.And when you have everything really tuned in, you don't have to reinvent the wheel.Rinse and repeat your launches, reusing your assets and making small tweaks to improve, providing value to new audiences and generating predictable, sustainable revenue.Find the full show notes here: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/the-secret-to-our-highest-converting-challenge-launch-2/Resources:Challenge Launch Challenge -We’ll pull back the curtain and show you exactly what we've been doing the past couple of years with Challenges & Launches and led us to make a million dollars this year!

As entrepreneurs, we have so many ideas and get super excited to share valuable information with our audience. But what ends up happening is that we unintentionally overwhelm them by bombarding them with excessive information without a clear path forward. That's why beginning with the end in mind is key. So with any launch or promotion that you have, take a moment to think about where you want to guide your audience, the experience you want to provide, and the impact you want to make in their lives. This way your messaging is cohesive, leading your audience on a clear path seamlessly towards your desired destination. This clarity not only benefits your audience, but it also relieves you of needless stress and creates a win-win situation for everyone.Resources:Challenge Launch Challenge -We’ll pull back the curtain and show you exactly what we've been doing the past couple of years with Challenges & Launches and led us to make a million dollars this year!

Stop comparing other people's wins to your progress. You're not in a race with anyone else.A lot of times, we can get caught up in what we see on social media, judging our own progress and success based on what other people post.But what you don’t see is all the work, energy, trials and tribulations that they went through to get there.Remember, success isn't an overnight phenomenon. It's the result of consistent effort, taking one step at a time.Every day, make those small decisions and take those actions that move you forward.And don’t forget to celebrate the small wins along the way.Stay focused, stay the course, and go at your own pace.Resources:Challenge Launch Challenge -We’ll pull back the curtain and show you exactly what we've been doing the past couple of years with Challenges & Launches and led us to make a million dollars this year!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

6 easy things to think about when it comes to your target audience!When it comes to getting to know our audience and really understanding who they are, a lot of times we overcomplicate it. Instead, keep it simple. Try using open-ended questions to connect with them: who, what, when, where, why and how!What are the things your audience is interested in? What are the things they desire? What are their pain points? Why are they seeking help? What’s going on in their lives right now? Why are they looking for a solution? How can you help them? Put yourself in their shoes and figure out what they’re experiencing. Imagine what their day-to-day life is like. That will give you a better understanding of what kind of solutions they are seeking and how you can better help them.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

We know a lot of information and we want to solve all the problems, and this can get very confusing for your members.

What do you dream about? As entrepreneurs, we’re focused on strategies, tips, tools and things that are going to help people succeed and that is fantastic. We want to see our people do well! We want to see them make progress! But a lot of times, we forget to ask people what they dream about.What are those dreams that they’ve had? Let’s go beyond the surface level. What does that look like, what does that feel like for them? Do they dream about finally taking that vacation with their family that they’ve been longing for? Or maybe it’s being able to help people in their lives, to help others, to give back? Or maybe they dream about having stability? When we can really get to know our audience, we get to know who they are and what they desire, and that allows us to feel more connected to them and vice versa. It also allows us to serve them in an even bigger way.Having these conversations will create that connection and having that connection is going to allow you to serve them better. You’ll get your offers out in front of the right people and really make a huge difference.It’s one big connective circle, but it all starts by asking your audience, “what do you dream about?”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

Your launch content is the bridge between whatever you've done to bring the people into your launch, from lead magnets to your social media, and your offer. Guide our people from why they are actually showing up for the launch to the transformation that you are promising in your offer. It’s about creating the opportunity of seeing what is possible, that they can themselves do this.It's dealing with limiting beliefs and handling objections.Hitting different mental triggers along the way to get your audience excited, anticipating, and desiring your offer.And finally, make them take action so they can have that transformation that they’re seeking.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

When you go into launch, just remember: everything you're doing right now is a learning process and all the stress that comes along with it is not permanent.You're gonna get through it!So take care of yourself during a launch and make sure you hydrate, get good sleep, and eat well.The mental game is more important than the strategies, the tactics, or the statistics.No matter if it's a great launch or if you faced challenges, you're going to grow during this moment. You are not going to be the same person on the other side. So go ahead, and prepare to launch.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

I’ve seen this happen a lot throughout my years in business.People do something proactive; they pull in a lot of interest to their offer, they'll end up landing a bunch of clients and at that point, they get really busy and very productive, they have a lot of sales and income come in.But while they're focused on those current customers and serving people, they stop doing what they did to attract those people. Then what happens is they serve,and they close out, they finish those transactions and there’s no one left to serve. They have to start all over again at the bottom.So how can you get rid of those peaks and valleys?Don’t stop doing what you did to attract people in the first place, and you’ll keep attracting new people in. Start every day at zero, as if you have zero clients. Put your best foot out there, put in the effort, stay consistent, keep attracting new people in, and then you'll never run out on the back end.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

Let’s talk about the content squeeze!This might be a new concept to you or maybe you’ve heard it before...A concept squeeze is when you take one piece of content and squeeze it dry across all of your different platforms. This is really designed to make your content creation easier and less heavy.And the great news is, this works no matter what your content modality is. Whether it’s a video, podcast or blog, go ahead and create that first initial piece of content. Then from there, you can squeeze it out across all the other platforms.So, get creative!

What is the #1 reason why businesses fail?Its cash flow.It's not having money in the bank, not having consistent money coming in without having to go out and create a client over and over again.When you have a sale and you have that money coming in, unless you amortize that, unless you push that out over a period of time, depending on how frequently you have a transaction, if you don't guess it right, you're out of cash flow. You’ll continually have peaks and valleys in your business.This is why we've been talking a lot about memberships. Having consistent cash flow coming into your business will allow you to have a plateau that you're always able to pull from.This is about creating that consistency, so that you can wake up every day and truly feel fulfilled in memberships, subscriptions, recurring payments…I tell you, that model is what's going to help you get there.How would a recurring stream of income impact you and your business?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

When’s the last time you “spring cleaned” your business?We do it in our homes, we do with our cars sometimes to do it personally, right? We need to get rid of the junk. We need to get rid of the anchors that are holding us back. And that's what I would invite you to do. Any day. You don't have to wait till the end of the year. It is not something that you have to have a specific time. At any point in time, you can spring clean your business.What are the things that possibly are no longer serving you that allow you to lean into the future, leading to new and better possibilities because you up that anchor, you cut the string, you're stop being tethered from past decisions that are possibly not even serving you today?Maybe you're making commitments and doing things on a daily basis that are not really moving the needle and it’s not making progress for you. It's because of that anchor to the past, that commitment, those things that don't even serve you today that are still holding you back.So, to move forward, we need to lift that anchor, we need to clean out the ship, we need to spring clean our business.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

How 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? Because if you think about it, if you're doing a $10 month membership, do you think you're going to come up with different content choices than if you started off with $1,000 per month membership?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. What can you do that gives the highest perceived value?

Begin with the end in mind! If you think of beginning with the end in mind, you don't have to have a stressful membership. It doesn't have to pull at you. You don't have to be available 24/7.

What is the number one marketing tool I can share with you? Something that will change everything. Something that will show you how to attract the right audience. Here’s the interesting thing, it’s built right into you. It’s your ears!The number one piece of advice I can give you, is attached to your head already. Listen to what is being said so you can get into the mind of your potential client. Remember, we have 2 ears and 1 mouth.When’s the last time you read what your consumers are reading? Consumed what your consumers are consuming? Think about that, what your consumers are consuming. The ones that are going to come to you, the ones that you want to be relevant to.

Do you want to make a bigger impact? Then you need to listen in.The one thing that Melissa and I have discovered over the last several years is instead of trading time for money, instead of just going after one client for one transaction, one of the best things that we've been able to do for ourselves, our clients and our community was to find a way to work with people on an ongoing basis.Now, we’re working with people that don’t just want a quick fix. But they are actually experiencing a true transformation that takes time, that takes energy, that takes feedback.The quick fix isn’t going to get you the impactful results; it's the long term that's going to get a win for everyone!That’s why when it comes to making impact, we strongly recommend looking into the recurring model for your business, look into subscriptions or memberships because that's where the longevity is.That's going to get rid of the peaks and valleys and create a steady income stream so that you can be more present, be able to show up, help yourself, your family, and also, because you show up as a better and less stressed person, you then can serve your people, your community and make a ripple effect in the community, in the world where it's a win win for everyone all the way around!Think memberships, think recurring, think subscriptions when you want to make a greater and bigger impact.

A lot of us get caught up in perfectionism.We have to have our membership programs done perfectly. Then when we finally take our offer into the market, there are crickets because it's not based on what your audience actually wanted. In this episode, we are discussing with award-winning online marketer and book author Dr. Mary Barbera why you should not let perfectionism stop you from simply putting your membership out there, regardless of the number of followers you have and how you can use market feedback to make sure that what you offer is perfectly aligned with what people are looking for.Dr. Mary Barbera “fell” into the autism world in 1999 when her first-born son, Lucas was diagnosed with autism. Since then, Mary transformed from a confused and overwhelmed parent to a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst and best-selling author. After earning a PhD, Mary launched her first online course in early 2015 and later built additional courses and a membership program to help both parents and autism professionals. In her vlogs, podcasts, books, webinars, and online courses, Mary teaches her unique step-by-step system and method to help children with autism (or signs of autism) talk more while reducing tantrums and other problem behaviors. Mary’s latest book Turn Autism Around was published in 2021 by Hay House and is helping parents and professionals start turning things around for young children with early signs of autism and older children with an autism diagnosis who are still struggling with talking, tantrums, eating, sleeping and potty training.

How big does your audience need to be for you to feel successful and fulfilled? Seriously, what is enough? How much is enough?When you achieve that first goal, you suddenly have a new goal, and that cycle keeps repeating. We get entrapped in this thought pattern and think that fulfillment must be at the next level. Therefore, success keeps getting moved forward to the next thing. So, no matter where you are, it’s like “What’s the next thing?”I challenge you when it comes to your audience, look at why you are really building that audience. What is the purpose behind the vanity metric? What is it that you think you need to feel fulfilled?While you’re on your journey, you’re collecting an audience, you’re bringing people into our world. And the truth is, we really don’t need as many followers as we think. We don’t need the virtual line around the corner. We don’t need the huge follower count. We don’t need a huge email list. What we do need is connection. We need to make sure we are tuned in with our audience, and we need to make sure we are tuned in with who we are, so we project the best self that we have.So, how much is enough? I guarantee it’s not anywhere near where you’re placing that metric. You can be fulfilled now, and you can look at the numbers. How many sales? How many paying clients do you need to reach the goal, to live the life and lifestyle that you want, to make the impact that you want?You don’t need a huge following. Instead, go deeper with fewer.

As 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 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

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-2/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

There are companies out there, and there have been for many, many years that have done what you're trying to do, maybe even in the niche that you have, and they're attracting clients. If they’re attracting clients that means there is a system, a process, a framework, something that they're already doing that's causing people to buy. There is something that is already proven and that works!Instead of going through the trial-and-error process on your end, wasting time, wasting money, wasting financial resources and energy that we cannot get back, why not ride on somebody else's wheel? Why not use a framework that is already working, that's already tested, that's already tweaked in, that's dialed in? That is the perfect starting point.You don't need to reinvent the wheel. It's probably already created 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

You're the boss of your business so you get to decide what it looks like and how it feels.I think a lot of times we get stuck in this mentality that we have to do things a certain way, because that's what everyone says that we're supposed to do.But at the end of the day, we are building an online business that's supposed to serve us to serve ourselves, to serve our family, to allow us to make a bigger impact, to allow us to create financial freedom, time freedom for ourselves, and that means being the boss of our business.Remember that as you're creating your awesome offers, you get to be the boss, you get to decide what makes sense for you, your business, your life, your family, yourself. Don't create an offer you don't like, be intentional about the offers that you create, be intentional with the time you put into it, the energy put into it, the financial resources you put into it so that you really can create something that you love.Make sure you keep that in mind as you're creating these awesome offers and do what feels good for you!Resources:Adaptive Inner Circle - The 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 Membership - Adaptive Membership 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 & @realmelissapruitt Facebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

I want to give you permission to launch.Put your promotion or your offer out into the world!Sometimes we get caught up in our head and we're sitting here in a state of parallelization, looking around for some big sign, some big thing in the world to say, “it's okay, we're going to be okay.”Now here's the thing though, nothing is permanent. So, whatever you put into the market today does not necessarily mean that's what it needs to be in the future. Things can change. Your membership can evolve as you do.So go ahead, let's launch!Resources:Adaptive Inner Circle - The 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 Membership - Adaptive Membership 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 & @realmelissapruitt Facebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt You will be so thankful because this will be the first step forward into a whole different reality than what exists right now.
