Three Reasons Why Your Sales Are Suffering & How To Fix It Now

===

Okay, no time for intro. Let's dive in immediately

Reason 1: You're Selling In The Wrong Place

Have you ever seen a private jet ad on Sun Newspapers or a Rolls Royce ad on Instagram?

Definitely not!

Why?
Because they know their target audience don't spend time scrolling through Instagram and Twitter.

You'll only find their ads on publications like Robb Report. Because that's what the affluent read.

Now moving over to you...

Do you know where your audience spend most of their👇🏿
time?

Do you know what blog post, podcast and social media platform they spend their time?

Find these platforms and milk the hell out of it.

Reason 2: You're selling to the wrong audience

You can't sell stocks to high school students

They don't give a hoot about those and👇🏿
even if they did...

They don't have the money to make such buying decision.

Now, ask yourself this one question...

"If my product could work for just one person in the entire world, who would it be?"

"And why would they be so interested in my product?"

These two questions...
will save you a lot headache.

Reason 3: Your Marketing message sucks!!!

I'm not trying to be a mean-ass here.

But let's face it...

Some business owners suck at Copywriting and what's more appalling is they're on willing to learn.

Listen carefully...

If you're going to👇🏿
have any success in this entrepreneurship thingy, you must learn how to show your prospects that your product is that magic pill they've been searching for.

They have to see themselves leading better lives by buying into your product.

If they can't see it that way, they
Won't buy it.

That's why your marketing message but be right!

If you can fix these 3 things in your business right now, 2021 could be the best business year you've ever had.

And to even add extra topping to the ice cream, I'm opening up free slots to my upcoming newsletter

Two Golden Rules Of Free Bonuses

==

It's no news that one of the best ways to sweeten a product offer is to add free bonuses.

But...

What you don't know is that the wrong bonus can ruin an already beautiful offer.

If you're going to add free bonuses to you offer, you must do
it the right way by obeying these two rules

#1: They must be valuable.

We know it's free but it has to be valuable enough that you can still sell it for money.

#2: They must be helpful and related to the main product

How?

If you're going to add a free bonus to your offer,
you must make sure that it's related to your product.

You don't sell a car and give out loaves of bread as bonus.

A year's supply of quality engine oil would be a better option.

Again, this bonus must be helpful to the product by actually helping the customer get closer to...

Subject: Steve, the higher animal

Holla Steve

About 16hrs ago, I read something quite shocking...

And it's not about the dip in crypto market or the price of dollars

It's actually about a bird.

Yeah...the flying animal.

Did you know
that doves(the white pigeon) usually have only one mate through out their entire life?

Like... they don't mate with other birds even when they lose their partners.

Now, what's even more shocking is that we humans (ironically higher animals) find it difficult to focus on one👇🏿
course for the shortest time possible—let alone keeping one partner.

Today, we are trading cryptocurrencies

Tomorrow it's affiliate marketing

The day after, we are selling hair creams on IG.

And when we finally get to the last day of the year, we start thanking God for life👇🏿
