Show notes

In this episode of the Empowered Business podcast, I’m sharing an interview with my dear friend, Jennifer Roskamp. I recently reached out to her and told her that I think her business would be great if she had a digital product shop. Jennifer is a quick action taker, so she did it and now she is here to share all of the amazing success she’s been having with it!

Jennifer Roskamp is a homeschooling mom of 9 and is passionate about helping women and moms put to rest the Instagram ideal of perfection and embrace stepping into reality…which is accepting that achieving perfection is an ideal that NO ONE can meet.

She is the founder and creator of The Intentional Mom where she also works as a money coach, everyday life guide, and a “learn from my mistakes” kind of mentor who isn’t afraid to say she’s not perfect.

Selling is serving, and adding a digital product shop makes it so much easier for you to solve the problems of your audience without sending them to several different landing pages. Jennifer did this for her audience, and now, she is seeing amazing results.

Tune in to learn more about Jennifer’s journey with starting a shop, the benefits of setting up a shop, when to use a landing page, and so much more.

58: 5 Mistakes to Avoid When You Have a Digital Product Shop Nov 17, 2022

Show notes

I’ve created and launched well over 100 digital products including spreadsheets, website templates, printables, courses, memberships, and more. You name it, we have probably sold it.

However, everything we launched resided on a sales page or a sales funnel. This meant that if people got to know me and wanted to buy more from me, it was harder for them to do because they had to go to multiple sales pages.

We soon found that the thing we were missing was a single call to action. One place to send people to, like a shop. Seems so simple, doesn’t it? Opening a shop gives you credibility. It provides a single place for your potential customers to see everything you have to offer.

But it wasn’t always easy, so in this episode of Empowered Business, I’m sharing the 5 mistakes we made with our digital product shop so that you can avoid them and fast-track success with your own shop.

Tune in to hear more about our tips for pricing, product descriptions, order bumps, collecting emails, and so much more.

57: What the BLEEP Happened?! Breaking Down Where We’ve Been & What’s Next Nov 10, 2022

Show notes

We’re back! It’s been nine months since my last episode, so I can’t believe that I can finally say welcome back to another episode of The Empowered Business Podcast.

I hope 2022 has been treating you well. To tell you a little more about how we are doing, I’m taking you back to the last episode, episode 56, where I told you that we are going on an indefinite hiatus. That happened back in January of this year, and at the time, I really didn’t know when I would be back.

This year, we made a big pivot, and this is going to be the backbone of the next few episodes. We doubled down on our online storefront, The Empowered Shop, and it was a game-changer.

We gave the shop a major overhaul and sent a short and sweet email to our list. This changed everything and it all clicked into place. We have an enormous amount of resources available to our customers and this was the best way to offer it all to them.

We now have a six-figure shop and needless to say, we have learned a ton about what to do and what not to do, so I can’t wait to share it with you all.

Tune in to learn more about what happened to my business this year, the pivots we made, and what we learned along the way.
