What’s the most common mistake that people make during a launch?They over-teach and over-deliver content.They are thinking: “I need to deliver. I need to show up with my best stuff.” Yes, you should definitely do that. But if you overwhelm people and make them feel that your launch content is everything that they actually need to have the transformation that you're promising, they will not desire to come into your offer.So find the right balance between giving value during your launch and leaving your audience to desire more.Resources:Adaptive Marketing Program - The 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 & @realmelissapruitt Facebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Mentioned in this episode:Funnels CakeFunnels Cake - www.FunnelsCake.com

You need to make more offers!Would you like to know one of the number one thing that has helped me become successful over and over again?It’s really quite simple: by making more offers! In this current moment in time, there are people in the world that are willing to invest in your product or service, that are willing to invest in you and what you give into this world. But if we don't make an offer, what happens? They're ready, willing and able today - right now. But they're in the active market right the second and they're going to go somewhere else to make that investment because we're totally invisible. The answer is always “no” to the offer that has never made. I challenge you today is to make more offers.We are attracting people into our world. We're putting out the messaging that's aligned to them. We're bringing them through our funnels, our online marketing. We are sharing our goodness into the world. But the thing is that if we aren’t giving them an opportunity to buy from us, we are free zoning those people, we are friend zoning them, right? We need to lean in, we need to feel more secure and confident and make more offers.When is the last time that you made an offer to your people? Let me know, because I think at the end of the day, we all need to make more offers!

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.

When it comes to list building, you only need to solve one problem for your audience. You don’t need to solve all their problems at once! I know it's super tempting and you want to help and solve a lot of their problems all in one sitting but when you do that, it can be very overwhelming for them. If we're overwhelming them with too much information, they're not going to watch a video, they're not going to read a PDF, and that really important resource you created is going to collect digital dust!

Embrace 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 again, we talk about all the time, marketing is testing, and the only way that you're going to test is you have to be vulnerable enough to put out imperfection is put out things that are not perfect because 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.

I'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. It can make you nervous. It can make you feel fearful for the future.Just know it's a natural part of business. It's a natural part of your marketing process. It's a natural part as you grow, and you change, and you shift in your business.Once you're able to embrace that mindset, that change is just a part of the marketing process, it's a part of your business is a part of life, then you're going to just go more easy on yourself as those changes happen, you'll be able to adapt better, you'll be able to think of things a little bit differently and you know, not be so set in your ways of doing things a certain way.So, remember change is going to happen.

What makes a high-converting headline? It’s important to remember that people buy from two different standpoints: the logical mind and the emotional mind. The logical buyers want to know all the details upfront and they want to make an informed decision. The emotional buyers are making decisions from the heart. They’re pulled by a story, a thought, a connection. How can you appeal to both? Mix it up, have fun and make sure you’re speaking to your entire audience! You’ve got this!
