A few thoughts as I prepare for the November/December rush:

1. If your landing page isn’t converting well enough, don’t be afraid to become more aggressive with direct response copy.

You can always tone it down later once you figure out what works and to stay compliant
2. Don’t be afraid to create long landing pages with large amounts of texts and graphics.

If you are speaking to the customer’s desires, they will keep consuming your content and will keep scrolling
3. Related to the first two points, when I increase the length of my copy, the average time on my site increased dramatically and the bounce rate decreased
4. The caveat to all this is that your copy needs to be engaging.

Focus on the structure of your page to make sure headers are cleanly laid out.

Avoid large blocks of text. No one reads those.

Each header and section needs to keep “hooking” the reader.

My simple approach to FB ads:

1. Less is more: less audience targeting, less exclusions, etc.

2. Focus on testing different ad creatives as rapidly as possible

3. Understand and analyze your data to determine which part of your sales funnel needs to be optimized.
I have targeted the entire world and had profitable campaigns as early as 2017.

Just focus on an offer that has mass appeal.

Play in large, competitive markets.
The plain truth is that acquiring customers with FB ads is becoming more and more expensive.

And the trend is only going to continue.

That’s why your focus should be on increasing your customer lifetime value.

Viral tweets are like trending ecom products

I've seen the tweet below at least 30 times in the past 6 months, and it gets tons of engagement every time

Similar story with trending products (see list in next tweet)

Plenty of juice to be squeezed out of them over and over again
This nail polish holder is always a great product to sell during the holidays. A great gift idea, it goes viral every November and December:

**How to Create and Sell a Course and Make $1,000,000 in Profit**

It’s true

Selling a course is the easiest way to make a million dollars in a year

In fact, it's a great way to make passive income!

I’m going to break down exactly how to create a course and sell it profitably
(1) First of all, you might ask: why should I make a course?

Because it’s easy. And you don’t need an idea that changes the world

Just take what you already know and sell it

Plus you don’t have to worry about fulfillment or inventory issues

No brainer, right?
(2) The next question you'll ask is: what should the course be about?

Rule: If people want to learn something, you can make a course about it

Are you good at flying drones?

Can you teach someone how to launch their first podcast?

If there's a market, you can make a course

**How to Dropship Successfully Without all the Hassles and Beat your Competition**

“Winning” dropshipping products come and go

You’ll see stores launch and die out within months

But how do you escape the churn and burn and roller coaster of highs and lows?

Here’s how to do it
Step 1: Identify products selling well already

Use spy tools or curate your FB/IG feed so that it shows you ads for trending products

The goal is to choose a proven offer and then beat your competition with better marketing

Now let’s discuss the marketing side of things
Step 2: Create barriers to entry

The biggest problem with dropshipping is that everyone is on a level playing field

Since it is easy to start and anyone can do it, it is difficult to differentiate yourself

That’s why you need to create a barrier to entry

How do you do this?

**How to Close High Ticket ($5k+) Sales Calls with a Nearly 100% Success Rate**

A couple years ago, over the span of 2 months, my team and I closed 79 out of 80 prospects for $5k-$10k coaching services.

How did we achieve this astonishing success rate?

Here’s the breakdown:
First of all, let me be clear.

All sales calls were scheduled with existing customers who had already purchased info products ranging from $47 to $497.

This already made them a warm audience that was receptive to high ticket coaching.

And that’s one of the key secrets...
Step 1 : Buyer commits by purchasing a lower ticket offer.

Step 2 is the critical stage:

3 weeks after purchase, we would reach out to check in and see if they needed more help

Many accepted a call immediately (because buying a course simply isn’t enough)

So far so good.
