The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 054: Gabe Arnold

Thu, 24 Oct 2019 05:00:00 +0000

I interview the CEO of CopywriterToday.net, Gabe Arnold. He describes his business model and how he scales adding new copywriters every day to handle the millions of words his team needs to write.

If you have a business that needs to scale based on personnel, you need to hear this interview.

Gabe Arnold is the founder and Chief Pencil Sharpener at CopywriterToday.net, a subscription-based article writing service. In his early 20s, Gabe saw his construction business hit by the downturn in the real estate market to the tune of a $1 million bankruptcy.

Gabe always enjoyed the technical and marketing side of the business and started building websites for clients as a freelancer. He noticed the content creation was always holding up the sites going live, and there was rarely any content being added after he'd finished the sites. He came up with the idea for a monthly subscription model to both resolve the pain point for his clients and generate recurring income for his business.

Gabe sums this up best saying, "Creating a subscription model business has turned out to be one of the best things I have ever invested my time in. It has lead me to grow from barely being able to provide for my family to for the first time in my life reaching a 6-figure income and the flexibility to truly work when I want to.

When the company started, Gabe hustled and wrote every single customer order himself for the first 2 months. Then he developed a recruitment system to find qualified writers and now manages a team of 50 remote workers.

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 012: Scaling by Becoming a Non-Fiction Author - Hotseat Interview with Wendy Williams

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 011: Scaling by Becoming a Non-Fiction Author

Sun, 11 Oct 2015 03:07:28 +0000

You can scale your business by becoming a non-fiction author.

: Scale yourself by becoming a non-fiction author

There are 3 things we discuss about becoming a non-fiction author:

The answer to the question "what should I write about?"
How to monetize your book
How to launch your book

The answer to the question: "What should I write about?"

There are 3 things you should think about:

Find something you have a personal connection or story about. Don't just pick a "popular topic." Chandler Bolt is a perfect example. His first book, The Productive Person, wasn't his expertise. But in writing the book, he had a personal story to tell about productivity.
What will you sell with the book? You won't become rich by selling the book. Make sure there's congruence between the story you want to tell and the thing you want to sell.
Come up with 3 speech ideas about the book. Are you excited about them? Motivated by them?

How can I finish my book?

One answer: get help.

There are 2 ways to get help: a coach or a course.

2 book coaches I recommend: Ann Shebayni and Clementina Esposito

If you want a self-directed course, I recommend Chandler Bolt's Self Publishing School. (yes, that's an affiliate link, but I know Chandler personally, wouldn't recommend him unless I was completely convinced he's the best man for the job. And it doesn't cost you a penny to click on that link.)

How to monetize your book

Add an audiobook link in the front of the book to capture e-mail addresses. Create video content you give away for free to readers.

Make sure you have a solid funnel that turns readers into buyers.

How to launch your book

3 things you need:

A launch team
Bonuses
JV partners

Your launch team is a group of 25 - 50 people who are dedicated to helping you spread the message about your book. You need to give them explicit instructions, write copy for them to share, and communicate with them in a number of ways.

Bonuses are time-sensitive offerings for buyers of your books. These are different than your "in-book" bonuses. These bonuses will expire. It could be a course, additional training, a call with you, etc.

JV partners are critical to your success in a launch. They send out emails to their audiences suggesting people get a free copy of your e-book. From there, those prospects go through your funnel and the JV partner gets a percentage (usually 50%) of what you generate.

“A manifesto for true authenticity disguised as a manual on public speaking.”

Michael Port, my mentor and friend, takes us through his book, Steal the Show. Here are some of the highlights of the interview.

Authenticity doesn’t mean “sameness”. It means we can adapt to the role we should be playing in each situation.
How do you start a speech that doesn’t “give up the room” or make you small?
Can you sell from the stage with authenticity?
You serve your audience by playing the role they need you to play for them.

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 009: Building Your Authority

Sat, 29 Aug 2015 22:57:46 +0000

How do you build your authority?

: Build authority with a system and platform

You need an authority platform and a system.

Your Platform

An authority platform can be:

Book
Podcast
Speeches
Webinars

There are other platforms, but these are the major ones.

Building a book is a great way to create authority, but you probably need assistance to make it a success. You may use a coach or mentor or just buy a training course, but you need help. It should probably be the first thing you work on.

Resources listed: Ann Sheybani's Build Your Book Bootcamp

A podcast is easier to create, but you need to be careful. A standard "interview-based" podcast format may not build your authority unless you design the interview style in a way that's consistent with your "system." A topic-based podcast can create your authority. Think about how you're establishing your authority through your podcast.

Also, podcast could be other broadcast medium like video podcasts, Periscope broadcasts, etc.

Resources listed: John Lee Dumas' Free Podcast Course

Speeches are awesome, but take some time to get great at. You could speak for fees or for free. If you speak for free, you may "sell from the stage" where you have a product in mind or you may have to be more subtle. In either case, you need to have to a call-to-action that encourages the audience to engage with you.

Resources listed: Michael Port's Heroic Public Speaking

Webinars should be a part of your portfolio if you sell something over $1000 (and, by the way, you should be). You should use webinars to tell a story and position yourself as an authority. Then, you follow up with a call-to-action of some kind.

Your System

You need to create a system to become an authority. You might have steps that achieve your one big result or you have might phases or categories instead. But either way, you need 3 - 5 major categories of your system. Inside those blocks, you break down the steps into sub-steps.

Two things to keep in mind:

Don't fool yourself in thinking you don't have a system - or that your system is so obvious that it's not worth making a system out of.
"Don't boil the ocean!" Don't make your system so complicated that it's intimidating. Find 1 big problem to solve - and stop there.

You may need to get some help to figure out what that system is. Write it down. Make it your intellectual property.

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 007: Driving Traffic to Your Lead Magnet

Mon, 24 Aug 2015 21:46:30 +0000

There are 4 particular ways to drive traffic to your lead magnet:

: There are 4 major ways to drive traffic to your lead magnet.

SEO
Social or Viral Marketing
Paid
"Hustle"

SEO is slow but free. It's not a great way to drive traffic to a lead magnet anymore. If you have blog posts or other content, then SEO can drive traffic to that - which in turn can drive traffic to your lead magnet.

Social or viral marketing is also free and completely out of your control. You're left to wait to see other people share your items. It may or may not work. There's no formula for "going viral" despite what the gurus say.

Paid is fast but costs money (hence "paid".) You need to get some assistance to do this right and target very carefully. Also, build up slowly so you know your "numbers".

"Hustle" is so overlooked. This is where you go out on social media and have engaging one-on-one conversations with people. Those conversations are where you offer to help people specifically with your lead magnet. Then, you can invite them to download your lead magnet. Although it's work, it's free. And there's no reason why you can't talk to 10 people a day (that's almost 1000 person list in 3 months.)

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 006: Email Campaigns - Hotseat with Steven Crutchfield

Steven Crutchfield is with the Villa Capelli in Italy. It's a resort with its own food products for sale in the United States. Steven is trying to come up with a great email sequence to encourage their new subscribers to buy a "first product."

In my hot seat conversation with Steven, we work through what that product should be and craft an email sequence to encourage purchases.

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 005: Email Campaigns

Mon, 17 Aug 2015 04:44:34 +0000

Email Campaigns

Email campaigns drive short- and long-term action from your list.

The email campaigns we’re talking about today are those that encourage your audience to take action. The old style “newsletters” just aren’t effective anymore. It’s time to move to an action-based campaign.

And we’ve already designed the action we want last week in Episode 003, when we defined our lead magnet in such a way that we were anticipating this campaign.

There are two kinds of email campaigns:

Short Term Action Campaigns (STACs)
Care and Feeding Campaigns

A Short Term Action Campaign is 1 to 2 weeks long and tries to get your audience to take action in that brief period. A Care and Feeding Campaign is intended to continue building relationships with your audience over time.

CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION: Join us at 7-Figures Plus to ask questions about this episode, hear ideas from other entrepreneurs, and actually get feedback on your own email campaign. It’s FREE!

Short Term Action Campaigns

The best STACs are build on a story-line taking your audience segments into consideration. Remember audience segments from Episode 001. They are Loiterer, Looker, Shopper, and Buyer. The story line you should provide should have 4 basic messages corresponding to the audience segments, although they may need to be broken up into parts. The emails will all have hooks connecting to the next.

Email #1: introduce the pain point and explain that you will tell a story of someone who looks like you’re audience.
Email #2: start the story and build to crescendo – drama. Leave the reader hanging, but promise resolution in the next email.
Email #3: finish the story and outline the solution having the components of your product or service. Promise the reader you’ll explain how they can get these results for them next.
Email #4: explain you have a system and describe the process for buying (phone call, credit card, application, contract, etc.)

Care and Feeding Campaigns

Care and Feeding Campaigns are built on the idea that each audience member has a slightly different need. The calls-to-action you use – 4 specific ones – are related to the audience segment.

Buyers need a “Buy Now” call-to-action
Shoppers need a “Fix It” call-to-action
Lookers need a “Better Life” call-to-action
Loiterers need a “Learn More” call-to-action

First, you’ll need to tag each prospect by seeing which call-to-action they respond to. Start at the top with Buyers in order to not allow audience members to “de-migrate” back to earlier stages.

Send the same content with different calls-to-action in order to encourage your audience to jump back into buying again. Make sure to purge those who never respond after a reasonable period of time (3 – 6 months).

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 004: Lead Magnets - Hotseat with Gary Griffiths

Fri, 07 Aug 2015 17:27:57 +0000

This week, we're focusing on lead magnets. Gary is an Australian living in Connecticut (sounds like a book title) who runs a Facebook ad and marketing agency called Three Sides. His work up until now has been almost all been word-of-mouth.

But now, it's time for Gary to scale and that means putting a killer lead magnet together that serves his audience.

In this hot seat session, I work with Gary to help him create the next best Facebook ad resource. And trust me, wait until the end and you'll want a copy of it when he's done!

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 003: Lead Magnets

Fri, 07 Aug 2015 17:05:58 +0000

This episode is about creating a lead magnet for your business. We’re going to cover advanced ninja techniques for putting a killer lead magnet in place.

Lead Magnets

Your lead magnet should attract your ideal customers – and should repel those who you will not eventually buy from you.

The lead magnet trio consists of the following:

A freebie,
A landing page or other opt-in process, and
An email sequence to engage in follow-up

A Freebie

Make sure your freebie is connected to the headline you promise. The worst thing you can do is promise to show someone “how” to do something, and then not actually teach it.

Also, don’t provide something “obvious” – something they can just Google.

Create a freebie that is easily consumable and “swipeable.”

Ask yourself the question, “what is the #1 thing you could teach your audience right now that would get the result as quickly as possible?” Take that answer, make it easily consumable and “swipeable” and make that your freebie.

CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION: Join us at 7-Figures Plus to ask questions about this episode, hear ideas from other entrepreneurs, and actually get feedback on your own lead magnet. It’s FREE!

Landing Page or Opt-in Process

Make sure you have a landing page and opt-in process that is consistent throughout your business.

Use a pop-up or Leadbox (like from LeadPages). They create conversion – when done appropriately.

If you use exit behavior pop-ups, make sure you put them together with a regularly timed pop-up. Exit behavior pop-ups interrupt the user’s mindset. Timed pop-ups can engage the prospect while they’re actually thinking about connecting with you.

Make sure you allow the user to engage with your website for awhile before putting a pop-up in place. You may also consider a one-time “welcome page” pop-up, but try to give 20 – 30 seconds for the user to engage before you interrupt.

Maybe even use language in the pop-up box that acknowledges you’re interrupting and asking to connect.

You need to test landing pages for text or video. Consider your audience’s preferences, but you will absolutely need to test.

The 6 to 7 Figures Show - Episode 001: Audience Segments

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 16:44:24 +0000

This episode focuses on creating audience segments. An audience segment is a portion of your prospects and customers segmented by how far along the sales process they have moved.

What is the One Big Problem?

You need to find 1 problem that you solve. Not multiple..just one. This helps your audience identify clearly what it is you do and how you can help.

The Google Search Technique

: Search Google to help nail your 1 big problem you solve

Use the Google Search Technique to validate your 1 big problem. Type in the phrase identifying the 1 big problem into Google and see what's there. You should find articles and providers that solve the problem.

If there is content but no providers, that means there may be no market for this.

If there are providers but no content, that means there may be an opportunity for content marketing in this space.

Look through the content to find what element of the 1 big problem is really relevant for people.

The 5 Why's

Once you identify what service you provide, ask yourself "why do you need that service?" Then answer the question and ask "why" again. Do that 5 times until you really uncover the true need.

For example, if you provide quality video production service for businesses, ask "why do you need quality video?"

Maybe you say, "because you need to be seen as a serious provider." Why do you need to be serious?

To be seen as an expert. Continue this process and you'll see that the real reason is that you want to make more money.

So you don't help people create quality videos; you help them earn more money.

What is the One Big Result?

You need 1 big result - which becomes your unique selling proposition.

The 4 Big Reasons People Buy

People generally buy only for 1 of 4 reasons:

Make money
Save money
Stay out of jail
Have a better life

Your benefit needs to be one of these things.

The Benefit + Control Formula

: A unique selling proposition must be truly unique to be valuable.

You need a unique benefit. That means something your competitors can't credibly repeat.

Whatever benefit you provide, you need to indicate a "control" that offsets that benefit. For example, if you make people money, you need to say you do it faster or easier or something that "controls" the fact that you make people money.

For example, "we save you 15% on food costs while customer satisfaction on food quality goes up by 20%."

See how cost savings is offset by an increase in food quality? You would think that lower food costs would result in lower food quality. But by offsetting, it you create a unique selling proposition.

Also, make sure you use statistics - numbers. And make them exact. Putting numbers in your unique selling proposition will make it solid.

What are Audience Segments?

: Your audience moves through 4 phases before they buy - just like shoppers at a mall.

Audience segments are the psychological states your prospect goes through while deciding to buy from you.

Loiterer

The loiterer doesn't know anything about your business but needs to hear your target market and unique selling proposition.

Looker

The looker has wants and preferences associated with your product or service, but hasn't identified a need yet. They need to be shown what their life would be like with your product or service.

Shopper

The shopper is comparing and contrasting. They have a need and are trying to determine whether you can fulfill it or not. They need facts and figures that show how your benefits will solve their problem.

Buyer

The buyer wants to transact. They need to know how to process a sale. Don't "hide the cash register" by making it difficult to know the "next step" to buy.

Continuing the Conversation

You can ask questions in our Facebook group: 7-Figures Plus. We'll be discussing:

What makes a solid unique selling proposition?
How do the 5 Whys work in your business?
What does a looker, shopper, and buyer look like in your business?
