FL 87 – We Help Christina take her organizing business to the next level. Apr 19, 2016

Show notes

Today we are with community life member, Christina who was previously a lawyer and is now an organizing and decluttering coach. She helps people cut out the clutter, and get organized so they are making more money. A recent study says that people lose an average of 55 mins a day (or 6 weeks of work) a year due to being cluttered and disorganized. She has made money by selling printable PDFs on Etsy and working with people in person. Christina has decided to change her lifestyle by making organizing and decluttering courses for individuals online. We discuss how every opportunity in your business doesn't mean it is the best one. Sometimes even in business, you have to let go of things so you can see larger gain and progress with something else. We strategize with Christina ways in which she can use her product to start promoting and selling the 100 page ebook she has already created. After narrowing down her target avatar, Christina is going to maximize the Flip Your Life Community by asking other members (who are also entrepreneurs) how they would want the content to be delivered. [Tweet "People are usually more willing to invest in their business than themselves"] You will learn Why it's not smart to have two different target audiences online. Consistent messaging to your target audience. Don't put a lot of time into your tagline or website domain. Ideal Balance between product creation and promotion. Go ask your target audience what they want rather than speculating. Don't speculate what people want, you have to go ask them.

Each week we bring a member from our Flip Your Life Community for a one on one call with us, this week we have Pete Miller who has been in the insurance business for over 25 years. We go over ways Pete can protect his website from hackers - the possibilities of how spammers will try and log into your forum, add comments onto your pages, the importance of having software to protect your access and the need to encrypt your passwords that are long with unique characters and are not easy to guess.

How to make sure your Identity isn't stolen. Where to get encrypted passwords. Update Your Plugins. How to get traffic to your website. Getting started with the membership site.

FL 82 – Navigating the Best Way for Marnie to Build her Online Community for Teachers. Mar 15, 2016

Show notes

Teaching in public schools, Marnie was shocked when she realized most middle schoolers were reading two levels below what they should have been for their age. With determination to figure out how to increase their reading levels, she began private tutoring. She was so successful with this showing great improvement from the students after only 12 hours of sessions. With her expertise in teaching students how to read, she created a free online training model that guides volunteers on how to improve the reading skills of kids, reaching to about 1,000 schools. Now, she is building her own online professional community for classroom teachers to teach their students how to read through her website, Reading Simplified. As she gains about 2 email subscribers a day, we help her navigate where she should begin. Should she focus on getting to know her audience through webinars ? Or should she solely focus on her membership site before any further engagement? Find out on today's episode! [Tweet "There is a difference between social media followings and traffic to your website"] You will learn Why to separate the avatar from the individual with the money. What comes first - membership site or getting to know your target audience. Pre-record your webinars as free content and content for your members. Keep the 'how' for members only.

FL 81 – Helping Shonda Make the Best Decision for her Digital Printing Business Mar 08, 2016

Show notes

Coming from a place of printing, cutting and shipping all of her products herself - Shonda switched to selling digital products online only. She provided templates to online companies who would then take care of the rest for her. It's not always good to have all of your eggs in one basket when someone else is controlling that basket. If the basket is taken away a lot of your business can change. We help her find direction on her product and avatar. Using our own family as an example as to why we printed digital prints online for our children, we are able to explain to Shonda who her avatar could be. We walk Shonda through if she should continue to depend on third party websites to sell her templates online, or focus solely on getting traffic to her personal website. We also discuss how to decipher where the best place is to invest your time and money as an online business owner. [Tweet "If you are an entrepreneur your job description should change every 6 months to a year"] You will learn Why having your own platform is good. What determines the products you sell online.

FL 79 – How to find Clarity in Your Online Business with Flip Your Life Member – Kevin Depew Feb 23, 2016

Show notes

Today Kevin goes through a consult that our intensive mastermind members go through -- helping him determine who his online avatar is and discovering what he wants out of his online business. We start at the very beginning as Kevin is in the midst of figuring out how to turn his hobby into an online business. We try to answer fundamental questions before he starts taking action. Kevin is looking to teach the older demographic (who not only work a lot, but are in the position of being full time caregivers to either a parent and/or spouse) how to use today's technology to better manage their time, so that they are able to spend more time with their children and grandchildren. We help him zero in on who his avatar should be, the language to use, and why focusing on one pain point will allow his hobby to be turned into a business. Kevin wants to be successful in his online business to have enough revenue to support his family, travel, and spend time on his own creative products.

On today's podcast we'll talk about transitioning Rebecca's childbirth website from a launch model to a recurring revenue business.

Join us, each week, as we teach you how to flip your lifestyle upside-down, by selling stuff online. Are you ready for something different? All right, let's get started. SHANE: What's going on guys? Welcome back to the Flipped Lifestyle podcast, it's great to be back with you again this week, excited to have another Flip Your Life member on the call today. This is a little bit different call, we've got someone who came to us with a successful online business, but she wanted to transition into a more sustainable, growing, recurring revenue based business, and that's what we're going to talk about today is how you can move making money online into something that might be a little bit lower energy, and a little bit easier every month, you know, a little bit less stressful because you're not waking up every day going 'Where's my next sale coming from?' Our guest today is Rebecca Decker, Rebecca welcome to the show. REBECCA: Thanks. Thanks for having me, I'm excited to be here. JOCELYN: Yeah, awesome. So,
