Online Marketing Podcast

Do you want to have success, sales and impact in your business? Well, of course you do, right?A lot of times when I’m coaching other business owners and they're having struggles getting people to buy their offers or they’re having trouble making connections with their people online, it's a matter of not having one of three things aligned with the other.So, what are the three things that you need to have aligned?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

Oh, my goodness, here comes the controversy... You do not have to give all the good stuff away for free!Often in marketing circles, you’ll hear people say that you need to give your good stuff away for free in order to lead people in. And I want to put a little asterisk right there beside that statement.I'm going to have you sit back and think about this...Of course, we want to attract and bring people to our offer, our coaching program, our course, our membership, or whatever our thing is but we need to look at this a little differently. We don't want to put junk into the market, but we also don’t want to give all the good stuff away for free!Everything that we cover, whatever info we provide is to give people a little taste, it's just a sample of the real thing. It’s to draw them in so they want the real deal.So, go ahead and put your best stuff out there, but with a little asterisk. Give them a sample and create a desire for 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

Do your research!Research is the first step before you get started with building your lead magnet but it's often a step that people skip over.It's very easy to skip past and get right to create an awesome lead magnet that's beautifully designed. But if that lead magnet doesn't speak into the problem, it's not going to do your audience any good.Don’t make that mistake. Do your research first, figure out the problems that your audience is having and then base a list builder around that. Then you can create a list builder that's going to naturally lead and bridge into your offer. It all starts with doing the research first.So, get started with that research. Do your homework. It'll be worth it in the long run!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

You don't need a big list or a big audience when you have the correct aligned offer.Focus on serving the right people. If you're intentional with what you’re putting into the marketplace and speaking to the right audience, you're going to have a higher conversion ratio, it’s going to be easier to guide these people into a sale.So, take your time when it comes to list building. Be a little bit more careful and stay clear of all the shiny objects out there to build the vanity metric, the tricks on how to build huge followings because a lot of these leads won't be very high quality.Be intentional instead. Build an audience of the right people.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

The number one mistake when it comes to email lists for marketers is having one giant list for everyone.This way, you will end up treating all of the leads that you have like the exact same person with the exact same experience.But they're all individual people with specific individual needs and wants.So instead, you want to have different types of lists, you want to segment them out so that you can speak to your audience differently depending on what they're interested in.In this episode, we are talking about how you can create separate lists that will help you create a more tailor-fit and effective marketingFind the full show notes here: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/the-biggest-mistake-people-make-when-growing-their-email-listResources:Highest Converting List Builders PDF Grab your Highest Converting List Builders PDF to create list builders that convert to clients!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

Have you ever been in one of those relationships where you got friend-zoned? Well, you know what, that might be exactly what you’re doing with your audience! We see this often in the online marketing space, where people are getting free-zoned by their potential customers.What does this mean? When you put people in that free mechanism for so long, and you nurture them for so long, you’ve basically groomed them to expect free from you and never buy anything.We don’t want to be free-zoned; we want to build that relationship; we want a commitment. So just like dating, we can’t free-zone our audience. I want you to think about it, are you free-zoning your people? Or are you giving them offers that they are perfectly aligned with, and that they would love to purchase from you?So, remember, it’s okay to make more offers. Stop putting people in the free zone!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

Memberships do not have to be complicated. Seriously!They can be very streamlined, very simple. It all comes down to the promise that you're making.Now, if you have a coaching program, what better thing to put on the back because you know, there's only so many people that are going to keep renewing for another thing, coaching element.But if you had a maintenance program, if you had a back-end membership that gave the opportunity for people to stay connected with you even after that experience, same thing with the course, the natural tension that people have.it's all about the long game.It's having a lifetime value of a client having something where you truly can help people make the transformation that you want for them.Nobody loses, it's a win-win-win all the way around.And the interesting thing is because we're intentional, it doesn't have to be overwhelming.

Now a lot of people look at Melissa and I's successes, they see the multiple offers that we do, they see all the things and it's very common that people come up to us. And they're like, oh, we want to do you have multiple memberships, you have a bunch of offers and things and what they don't realize it's taken us many years to get here.We actually only put one offer at a time in the marketplace. We tweaked it, we tested it, we got it down to the point that allowed us to freedom in the time and energy and space to then create the next logical step for the next offer.If you just compare and look over at our entire frontal system, you would in a blink go, ”oh, I need to do all of that”.And it's like, no, we didn't just do all of that.

Get paid to build your email list.When we go and acquire something, when we consume something, we're expected to pay, right?But here in the internet marketing space, a lot of people get tripped up on what's sold on to them and that's build a list, build a list, build a list, nurture, nurture, nurture, because that builds the vanity metric.That's something that is something that's measurable for a lot of influencers out there to get you to do. And I'm going to tell you at the end of the day, most of your clientele most likely is not in this internet marketing bubble, they're not conditioned this way.You have the opportunity to get paid as you build your email list. After all, this is what happens in the real world.You get contact information from people that are buyers, not people that are freebie seekers. So whenever you're doing your opt ins, whenever you're doing those initial offers, you could have different types of offers that you do that will allow the person to pull their wallet out in advance, sooner in the relationship versus way later in the relationship. Now, what that will allow you to do is then you're going to be able to pre finance your list building because as you spend money to get new eyeballs on your offers, on your things, you are then able to sell a different type of offer, typically a smaller promise, a smaller offer initially compared to your big offer, your big course, coaching, program, membership that you have the different offers that we all have in the backarsenal.And while that happens you will actually, as your email list grows, the money will be coming back in, the money will be coming back in, you'll be able to reinvest it. It's like having an ATM machine versus a slot machine when it comes to doing your ads.I want you to keep in mind that you can look at your funnel differently.You can look at your marketing strategy completely differently, if you change your mindset and start thinking more and ask yourself the question, “how can I get paid sooner?

When it comes to marketing and attracting clients, stop reinventing the wheel!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 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 Resources:Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle 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 - 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

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.

When you go into your launch, don't slip into "speaker mode", sticking robotically to your script and put on a mask of somebody else.Your audience wants a chance to get to know you. They wanna connect with you.And the more that they feel connected with you, the more likely they are gonna wanna work with you at a deeper capacity in your paid offer.So just show up. Show up as yourself.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

We often make the mistake of over-teaching during our launches. While giving value is important, too much teaching can overwhelm your audience, satisfy them prematurely and make them less receptive to your offers. Instead, inspire your audience by helping them adopt more empowering beliefs about what they can achieve. When they see new possibilities for themselves and experience some quick wins, they'll be more open-minded and excited about what you have to share.So don’t forget to teach less and inspire more during your launches.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

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/what-most-launches-succeed-or-fail-on/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

Truth bomb: The most successful marketers are the ones that are adaptive.Now what exactly does that mean? It means they’re not set in their ways and they’re willing to try new things.We are creatures of habit, it’s human nature, we don’t like change. But in order to move forward, we need to adapt.This applies to everything in life, but as marketers, in order to get our message out into the world, we have to adapt sometimes with the way that we reach people, and that often includes letting go of some of the marketing methods that we’ve used in the past.Anytime you are presented with an idea that you’re not sure about, I want you to take a deep breath and just listen with an open mind. That’s the first step to being adaptive! Be careful to refrain from that self talk or automatic response of, “no, that won’t work for me” or “yeah, but that’s different in my industry” or “yeah but…”.Just stop and listen with an open mind!To be successful, you need to roll with the punches, roll with the changes, be adaptive when things change in life and mold to whatever is going on in the world so that you can get your message out effectively.So, listen with that open mind and be adaptive!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

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!

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

With marketing, one of the ways that you can get back the expenses that you've paid into, some of your paid advertising to acquire clients, is to have a lot of smaller products to offer your audience as a way to work with them but also, it's going to recoup that cost.When you're thinking about ways to create small offers and ways to work with your audience, think about the pain points that they have. What is one small thing that you can solve for them with an offer?- Maybe it's an e-book that's going to explain the process that you do.- Maybe it's a tutorial of you showing a step-by-step process.A lot of times we over-complicate our offers and thinking that has to be this major, big thing and of course as entrepreneurs and online business owners, a lot of us have those signature programs. But keep in mind there are a lot of opportunities to work with our audiences with smaller offers, offers that are very specific and are going to solve a specific problem for them.What are some different ways that you can work with your audience with smaller offers?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
