How to start from scratch in the online space, part 1 of 2

I had lunch with a friend one day and learned he was about to launch a new book.

The problem was…

📙The book wasn’t ready for publication

🖥️ He didn’t have a pay-wall on his website to collect money and deliver content to people who paid for his videos that accompany the book

⚙️His team routinely bucked against any written down system

⁉️He didn’t know where to begin

 

I began sketching out— on a piece of paper— what I would do if I was starting from scratch. In reality, though he had a robust ministry, none of the online processes were working.

Most of them were broken.

We ended up with 11 items on our list.

 

A day later I emailed them to him…

And, when others began asking for the info, I outlined it in a webinar-style presentation (link at the bottom of this post).

 

Here are the first five things I would do…

 

#1 = Website = update it + build your home base... place a clear one-liner at the top.

#2 = Opt-ins = to collect email addresses of visitors, as well as send them targeted information.

 

#3 = Weekly podcast.

Note: we discuss several ideas to implement the podcast, as well as how to leverage the audience your guests...


#4 = Emails = 2x per week (broadcasts).

Notice the difference between broadcasts and sequences, as well as the strategy of using an email sequence with a one-time-offer on the "thank you" / confirmation page of your opt-ins, as well as including two offers in each sequence.

 

#5 = Blog, repurpose some of your existing content.

(See the module on "courses" in the full, robust Amplify video course for more on how to repurpose your content.)
