Play-by-Play: One week later ... I launched my funnel 💫

Following up on my last post, sharing that I was about to press play on my funnel "Unique Offer That Sells" helping visionary professional and entrepreneurs go from jazzed about an idea to booking 5-10 Clients without social media or risking their professional reputation.

A huge and heartfelt thank you to those of you who sent me encouragement and resources to help me finish.

I wanted to let you know what's happened since my last post:

1) when I filmed the video last week, it ended up way longer than optimal. 😅 1:08 minutes to be precise… Thank goodness for my lovely little app called Descript. I chopped it back to 20 minutes!

2) when I did the editing, I found the slide deck quite boring, so I updated the slides to have a lot more animations / transitions. That meant editing took me four or five days (between working with clients and running the rest of my business.) it also meant for a much more engaging video! I'm so happy I did that.

3) the first place I like to launch anything is with the people who follow my blog. We have a great open rate. 45 to 70%… So we decided to write a blog that would teach people why having a unique offer is so critical.

4) as it happens, we are also in the process of transitioning our website from one provider to the other. So I thought this would be a good opportunity to go live with phase one of my website. (Over plan much? Not me 😂) We used the blog to announce "phase 1" of my new website too!

5) at about 12:45 PM Pacific time today we pressed send on the blog. within a couple of minutes one person downloaded the template. Pretty happy about that. Our inner circle is usually pretty good at pointing out spelling mistakes and such, so we explicitly asked them to do so at the bottom of the blog.

6) the moment I only have the first two emails written for the follow up sequence. I was at the call last week but I don't have the AI tool and I'm wondering if there's any templates for how to write the follow up emails that I would be able to see?

@Penny Chohaili

(or anyone here) are there example emails I can see outside the AI tool?

7) thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the supportive comments on my last post. I felt so incredibly encouraged by this community. I will post on that thread as well. But I wanted to share the play-by-play of why it took so much longer than I thought. Even though it came in a week behind schedule, I'm so happy it's finally up! Next steps are to fine-tune and optimize. I may redo that video… But first those emails! I've got precisely 47 hours to get the next one in the sequence written! (Nothing like a little time pressure!)

@Aaron Fletcher

Having so much fun with your system!

@Penny Chohaili

PS: I've shared my updated deck here so if you saw the last one you can see what I changed.
