How I Hit $2,144 in the Make Money Challenge

Jan '25 • Posts

I wrapped up the challenge with $2,144 in sales, hitting my goal even with a packed schedule. Here’s exactly how I did it step by step.

1. The Offer: Selling My Microgreens Business Coaching

I was selling my Microgreens Business Coaching community, pushing the Annual Membership as the best deal.

$49/month or $499/year (I focused on annual).
I also offered a discounted price of $399 in certain cases.
One person started as a monthly member and later upgraded to annual pushing me over the $2K goal.

2. Marketing & Outreach: Getting People Interested

I didn’t rely on just one method I used multiple touchpoints to drive people into my world:

✔ Free Skool Community – Getting people into my free group was a major focus.

✔ Free One-on-One Calls – Once inside, I encouraged them to book a free strategy call.

✔ YouTube Videos – Each video had a CTA to join the paid group or book a call.

✔ Workshops – I made a direct discounted offer at the end of my workshop.

✔ Email & DMs – I engaged heavily in my free group, following up via DMs and email.

✔ Paid Ads (Minimal Test) – I ran one $50 ad to a workshop it worked and I plan to do more in February.

3. Sales Process: What Actually Converted People?

While I made an offer at the workshop, most of my sales came from a different approach:

💡 The Winning Formula: Free Group → Free One-on-One Call → Timed Offer

1️⃣ Bring people into the free group.

2️⃣ Get them to book a free one-on-one call.

3️⃣ On the call, I framed it as:

Let’s solve whatever issue you’re having. I’ll also teach you how to do a sales pitch so you can land your own customers.

4️⃣ Once they saw the value, I offered them the $399 deal but only if they joined within 10 minutes.
5️⃣ Almost everyone joined immediately only one person didn’t (but might later).
6️⃣ I also tested one 7-day trial, and she converted to an annual membership.

4. Objections & How I Handled Them

The biggest question wasn’t price, it was “What do I actually get?”

🚀 Once I explained the value, the objections disappeared and they signed up.

5. Biggest Lessons from This Challenge

📌 Make Videos with a CTA – People need to know what you offer.

📌 Workshops Work – They build trust and let people see you in action.

📌 Make the Offer CLEAR – If people don’t know you want them to pay, they won’t.
