Having your students binge your course like it's a hot new Netflix series might sound like a good goal, but it's actually the last thing you want them to do. If your students are binging your content, it means that you haven't provided enough opportunities for practice and you haven't done a good enough job facilitating implementation. Our brains can't absorb, retain, and transfer a ton of knowledge in one sitting (or even a few sittings), so it is our job to chunk that information properly and then support the retention and transference of that knowledge into usable skills. So, while it may seem like something to strive for, the last thing we want is for our members to binge our content, say, "Well that was really interesting!" and then go about their day in the exact same way they were prior to taking your course. To learn more about setting up your classroom strategically for both the success of your students and your own success, make sure you attend the Now What? session in the Classifieds on Wednesday. Find the time in your time zone on the calendar, and if you can't make it, the replay will be available for a few days after the session. I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comment below! 👇

If you don't know what Reddit is let me tell you: It's the biggest community platform in the world (if you consider a community platform as something separate from social media, like I do). It is among the top 10 most visited websites in the internet. It has lot of potential for making great conections and thanks to it I got a great high ticket client. Letit is a copy of Reddit, that I personaly find very interesting and promissing. Here is a complete breackdown of the pros and cons of each. ---> Reddit PROS: - It's a huge platform with all kinds of users. - If you look at the right places you will find very high quality conections that will be genuinely open to talk to you and give you opportunities you won't find anywhere else. - It's a SEO goldmine. What does that mean? It means that when someone googles an anwer to a question, if that question was answered on Reddit, it will be one of the first results. And if you're the one giving that answer, all the credit goes to you. That's how I got my client, by answering questions people made there. AI also loves using Reddit's answers as a reference. - You can find a community for every single niche there. There is a community for talking about eggs that has thousands of active users posting every day, for example. You will most definetelly find people talking about your very specific niche there. CONS: - It has a very anti consumerism culture. Advertizing under performs there compared to other social platforms. - For the reason above, getting clients on Reddit is very tricky. Self promotion is a sin. Any sort of CTA in your posts, as subtle as they might look, will get you downvoted to oblivion and sometimes even baned. You need a very specific approach for doing marketing there. - Moderation is very annoying and toxic in a lot of places. Reddit's moderators are volunteers with God complexes, that will a lot of times ban users for the most stupid reasons. - It's completely annonymous. You can use your name and photo there but that's not the culture. As a result, it's hard to build your brand using Reddit and also hard to find brands to compare to yours. Reddit is all about focusing on content and rejecting brands.

On Wednesday, we will be having our first Premium meetup of the month affectionately called the PERSONALS, and no, it has nothing to do with dating! We will be doing two different break out groups this time. Members will have an opportunity for small group discussions with two different groups. The first discussion will be about growth and the second discussion will be about engagement. Participants will introduce themselves with a short two-sentence introduction to their group and a link in the chat at the beginning of each discussion, so you might want to type up something ahead of time that you can easily copy and paste. No one is forced to talk, so if you want to come and lurk, that's okay too! We're a pretty casual, supportive, and friendly bunch, though! I can't wait to see you there! Oh, and I will need a co-facilitator for the group that I am not a part of, so if you are interested in this, please send me a DM. If you are not yet a Premium member and you would like to attend the meetup, please click here.

...PS (yes, I know the "PS" came a Tad Early in this post)... but I am currently READING the "80/20 Sales And Marketing" book by Perry Marshall, right NOW! Hey everyone! Quick question for you... How many of you know about the 80/20 principle? And more importantly, are you actually using it in your business? Let me tell you something: the 80/20 principle is almost as powerful as compound interest. Almost. And if you're NOT using it in your online business, you're leaving serious money on the table. What Does 80/20 Actually Mean? Here it is in simple terms: 80% of your results come from just 20% of your efforts. ....in your business!!! ....this means 20% of your customers generate 80% of your sales! .....that's where the gold is buried! A Simple Example: Let's say you have 100 customers: - 20 customers (the top 20%) might be spending $500/month each = $10,000 - 80 customers (the remaining 80%) might be spending $25/month each = $2,000 See the difference? Those 20 customers are giving you 5X more revenue than the other 80 combined! The Secret Sauce: Going Deeper (80/20 Squared) Here's where it gets really powerful. Once you identify that golden 20%, do it again. ......take your top 20% and treat THAT as your new 100%. Then find the top 20% within that group. Real-world example: - You identify 20 top customers (20% of 100) - Now analyze those 20 and find the top 4 customers (20% of 20) - These 4 customers are your super fans - they might represent 64% of your total revenue! The Big Mistake Most Entrepreneurs Make: Focusing on the 80% to only get 20% of the results. ....that's like spending all day watering weeds instead of your prize-winning roses. It's exhausting and unprofitable. ...instead, flip it: Focus on the 20% that gives you 80% - then double down on serving them even better. Conclusion: Your Turn to Share! The 80/20 principle can transform your online business overnight. But knowledge without action is just entertainment.
