In this episode, I cover the most common mistakes people make when starting a Facebook Group for their business... And I’m guilty of some of this stuff too from groups I’ve created in the past... But with the proper training of my mentor, Zach Crawford, ( a super affiliate and 7 figure earner) I now know how to create a FB Group successfully... And most importantly, pack it full of value for anyone who joins, and build a community out of it. This leads to the group almost becoming self sustaining overtime...

We did the interview via Instagram Live, and I’m happy to be able to bring you the audio! We cover perseverance, and how when I got started... From when I started my Shopify free trial, and was dropshipping products I wasn’t passionate about... I wasn’t creating any content, or providing value... I was only focused on the sale... We talk about how I went from that place, to affiliate marketing with clickfunnels. And how I gradually started making content on one platform, which evolved to being active on 6 different social media sites, this podcast, and all the platforms it gets distributed on, as well as the website and blog... All in less than a year.. This podcast is sponsored by Anchor

Do you ever wonder how to grow on social media in 2019? And I don’t just mean on one platform… I'm talking about growing on a few channels, and bringing that audience, or attention, to another one… How to grow your social media, and use that growth to fuel another… And another… Just can be done over and over again, with new channels… Strengthening your brand, and increasing you reach in the process... When done correctly, your free social media channels can be used like a “content chain”, that eventually leads to affiliate links. But only after taking people through your various forms of content first… This allows you to pre frame them with your content… Almost like priming them… Getting them ready for whatever it is you have to offer later on down the road… It's a great way to get free traffic to your blog, podcast, or youtube channel. I’m doing this right now, using my twitter and instagram account to bring more people to all three. My podcast, blog, and YouTube channel. In this Episode, I go over exactly what I’m doing with my instagram account, and the free resources I'm using in conjunction with instagram to make this all possible… I also go over what I’ve implemented so far, out of the K.J.

** Links To All Resources Mentioned in Today's Episode, Are In The Show Notes ** Available at: https://ecombillionaires.com/episode016 Today, I want to go over how to leverage Facebook groups, ethically.   The strategy that I'm about to share with all of you is what I personally used, and still use, to get leads... Leads that turned into my first affiliate commissions online. This method did much more than get me my first affiliate sales though. It got me my first $1,000 day! I cover in detail, exactly how I leverage Facebook groups. I start off by giving examples of what a good group looks like, and what a bad group looks like, once you join it. I also go over Facebook group edicacy. This groups belong to someone. An owner started it from scratch, and grew it with hard earned money, or their time. But most likely a combination of the two. So how do we leverage Facebook groups ethically, after we find them? What are some of the do’s and don’ts? What actions will get you banned, and what actions will the group members respond in a positive way towards? I cover all this and more, by explaining what I was offering to these group members, and how I was doing it. I started off trying this the wrong way, by going straight in for the ask, and not providing value first, with no expectations…I provided value, by answering questions… But then I followed that answer up with a link for some free training if they wanted to know more… This doesn’t work, because it’s not providing value with no expectations…In this episode I share exactly what I did to get around this...and how I ended up with happy leads, and satisfied group owners (because of the engagement I brought to the group) without dropping a link, or even mentioning my training I had to offer. Leveraging Facebook groups ethically is something that anyone with a little bit of knowledge, in a certain niche, can always do for free. If you consistently do this, you will start the process of developing life long fans… I’ve had a few people on social media asking me how I did this, specifically… So, hope this helps! ** Links and show notes at https://ecombillionaires.com/episode016 ** This podcast is sponsored by Anchor

Growth Services. They specialize in virality tactics or otherwise known as, rapid growth tactics, for your business. And he is here to enlighten us to the possibilities, not only on LinkedIn, but on all the social network platforms. We really take a deep dive into the virality available to everyone on LinkedIn at the moment. Did I mention that Kale Panoho, Co-Founder of K.J. Growth has the most liked and the most commented on video on LinkedIn? Yea, so these "Growth Hackers" definitely know what they are doing... And after diving into a great conversation with Adam about some of the tactics that they use at K.J. Growth to achieve their virality... It became obvious that they are getting their results from providing value to certain audiences, on a consistent basis.  Bringing value on a consistent basis is becoming an underlying theme to this show. So of course, I was more than happy to have Adam on to discuss these things. So without further ado, lets get right into the episode!

Hiring freelancers is a great stepping stone for a business that has yet to hire full time employees. Its also great for taking on special projects, or extra tasks. And better yet, you might just find a freelancer that is so good, you decide to make them your first full time employee. What’s the downside of hiring freelancers? I’d say its the varying skill set. You never really know how someone is going to perform for you, and your business, until they do. And spending hours finding the right person for the job, could take longer than you just doing the job yourself. But there is a better way to hire freelancers, or remote workers, in today’s day and age. And Nate Hirsch, CEO and Founder of FreeeUp, has made this a whole lot easier. For all of us. And he has honored us by coming on the show, and being our first guest! We cover how FreeeUp got started. How Nate started hiring freelancers, or remote workers, for his multi-million dollar Amazon business. And how he used those hiring systems he put in place, to start FreeeUp. Your one stop shop for all of your freelancer or remote worker needs. Get started by hiring your freelancer today at: Https://freeeup.com and get $25 OFF by mentioning this show!

No one likes to be 'sold' or convinced of something... That's why learning how to sell without selling, is a crucial skill set that every marketer needs to learn and develop. If they are planning for longterm success. The easiest, most honest and forthright way to do this, in today's day and age, is through your content. 20 years ago, making a video to increase brand awareness, and sell your product, would cost you tens of thousands of dollars. But today, you can make informative, value packed videos on a daily basis, and put them out on Facebook, or YouTube, for free... But these videos will more or less hurt your brand, instead of grow it, if you are going about them the wrong way. In today's episode of the podcast, I go over How to Sell Without Selling... So you can have a better idea of what the main focus of your content should be about... If it isn't about getting the sale... Sit down, relax, and strap in...

Consistency matters, especially when it comes to content marketing... Consistency matters. Flat out. I look at consistency as one of the main parts of the whole, "content is king" phrase that we've all heard so much. And When it comes to content marketing, that is especially important. When most people think about the benefits of consistent content, they usually think of all the SEO benefits. (Search Engine Optimization) But SEO isn't all that is affected in a positive way, when you develop a consistent strategy for your content. There is something even better that is changed by this consistency... Consistency Matters. It matters to your audience, as well as the SEO. Everyone following you could either be anticipating your next piece of content, because its always on time, and they know exactly when they are going to get another piece of your content... Or they can end up forgetting about you because you are never consistent, and every new piece of content that is published surprises them. This second option is no good. People will start by missing episodes, or shows... And it will end with them not caring that they missed them, and eventually unsubscribing... But this doesn't have to be the case. If you are consistent with your content publishing, and you are delivering valuable content, you should see steady growth in you audience, overtime... As you continue to publish content, provide value, and remain patient. And in today's episode, I go over exactly why that is... Sit down, relax, and strap in... This podcast is sponsored by Anchor

Filling your content with value is an absolute must. Especially if you intend to grow an audience, following, or list... And start marketing to them. Too many marketers these days are trying to bring new customers into their entrepreneurial ecosystem, by announcing what they have to sell. This is great, if your audience, or followers, have been receiving valuable info from you for some time. This is because it allows a sense of trust to set in, and an actual relationship to start to develop. It is SO important to do this long before presenting an offer, of any kind, to any of the people you want to sell it to. When you consistently deliver valuable content, without selling, you position yourself as an expert that is willing to give their best advice for free... As long as you are consistent, overtime. If you are not an expert yet, your content can be revolved around you documenting the process of you becoming one. Not only will this help with future sales, but it will become a valuable asset after you become a success. Your whole journey will be documented... Delivering valuable content right up front is key, when raising the lifetime value of all your customers. Most of us start off by focusing on what will get people in the doors, instead of on what will keep them there... (I know I did...) I once heard Gary Vaynerchuk (Serial Entrepreneur & Super Successful Business Man) say, "I'm not in the customer acquisition business. I'm in the customer retention business." This is so smart. Think about it. If your putting content out that is so valuable to your perfect customer that they keep consuming it, no matter what... Then you always have their attention, and when you are ready to give them some sort of offer they will be ready to receive it. So how do we ensure that all of our content we are providing and putting out there in the world is valuable to our own perfect customers. How can you start: Filling Your Content With Value... From the start? This is what we're about to tackle in Episode 11 of Ecom Billionaires Sid down, relax, strap in, and enjoy the show!

Tailoring your content to your perfect customer avatar is a must, if you want them to feel a sense of belonging, and a sense of trust, when they consume it. This is so important because it's what will cause them to subscribe to the content. It's what will have them eagerly looking forward to you publishing your next piece for them. It allows you to over deliver on what your perfect customer avatar deems valuable. This way, none of your content ends up being a let down. And when you consistently provide value, the sales, and money, will come. You can even use your new audience to find out what kind of product or service you should develop for them. Literally ask them what they need from you, and deliver on it. If you have already established yourself as someone your perfect customer already knows, likes, and trusts... Then getting them to buy the offer that they helped you put together will be no problem. This is exactly why it is paramount , to tailor your content to your perfect customer avatar. I made a video on YouTube to give you all some visual examples of MY perfect customer avatar, and how I tailor my content around his profile.

Do you know who your Perfect Customer is? I'm not talking about having a general idea of who your perfect customer is. I'm talking about knowing exactly who they are... How are you targeting them? If your answer is anything other than, "By referring to our Perfect Customer Avatar." Then we've got some work to do... But don't worry. I've got just the right info to get your business back up to speed. Today I'm going to go over my Perfect Customer Avatar, that I am still using to this day, and I am going to share with you the in's and out's of developing this for your business. I'm also going to cover why developing and referring to your Perfect Customer Avatar is so crucial for growing and expanding your business. And to make sure your content you're putting out is resonating with the right people.

Do you know how your business should be leveraging digital marketing in 2019? Do you really know what is effective right now? I ask this because the majority of digital marketing has been the type of marketing that almost everyone has come to despise... Interruption Marketing. In 2019 this is a big no no. People value their time too much to sit through your pop-up, or your pre-roll ad, if it's not already relevant. Programatic banner ads aren't tricking anyone anymore. Everyone is now "trained" to look at the center of websites and to avoid sidebars and banners. Unless, the sidebars are full of links that will lead them to more content that they already like. No one has time for ads anymore. It used to be acceptable for our TV show to stop every 6 minutes and show us commercials. Now people don't even watch television to avoid this. Its the same online. If you want to get the attention of a certain demographic, you are better off producing the content that they like to consume, and giving them value there. This way they look forward to hearing from you. The old way would be to find out what content they were already consuming, then put ad in front of it, or a banner below it... There are plenty of agencies that will charge you a lot to still do this, but they don't have your best interest at heart... In this episode I go over HOW, and WHY, you should start producing your own content, like a media company instead of an advertising agency. Content that will keep your target audience engaged and entertained. This way you never have to interrupt their content with an ad they don't wanna see... Ever again. Sit down, relax, and strap in...

So much of Entrepreneurship is based off of one's own personal development... Your ability to not waver, when faced with emotional situations, business deals gone wrong, or unexpected problems, is completely predicated on how well you've gone through similar situations. Adversity. That was my personal development school... And my story isn't one full of adversity from birth. It's actually filled with self-inflected adversity. But, that meant that I had no one to blame it on but myself. My story is one filled with world travel, and success, (by some standards in society), and then addiction, and homelessness... It's a story of loss, and then redemption... It's my origin story... As Gary Vee would say... It's my 'Comic Book No.1' So sit down, relax, and strap in... This podcast is sponsored by Anchor

I have a warning for you to heed. If you are doing any kind of marketing, branding, or selling online. At the moment, Facebook ads, and Instagram influencer ads are massively underpriced. At the time this was published, $5 will get your content in front of 1,000 people's eyes, roughly, but this won't last forever... Once the big brands realize that the millions they spend on TV commercials, needs to be re-allocated to Facebook ads... That $5 ad spend to get your message in front of 1,ooo people, will turn into $50, fast. To reach the same audience... And they won't go back down. In this episode I discuss how I know this, and I go over what I'm doing to capitalize on this era super under-priced attention, before it's too late. - Would you like to read along as you listen? -Visit: https://ecombillionaires.com/episode006 -Press play -Scroll down to read along.

How do we market, in a day and age where people don't like to be sold? Or better yet, where they don't like to KNOW they are being sold? The answer is simple... You give. Got advice you want to monetize? Give it away. How about an awesome affiliate marketing strategy? -Start laying it out. Want to become a paid speaker? -Start offering to speak, for free. In this episode, I cover how giving away your best stuff creates life long fans, and gives you the leverage to monetize. I give in depth examples of how I used this strategy to get people signed up for Clickfunnels. I did this without having to sell them on the idea, or suggest it for them. I simply gave the the information they asked for, I went above and beyond to deliver for them, and asked for nothing in return. This caused the people who resonated with me to want to know more about what I'm up to, and what else I could offer them. This is how you sell to someone who doesn't like to be sold. You give them you best stuff for free, and let them sell themselves... I hope you enjoy the episode! As always, thanks for dropping in! I hope you get massive amounts of value out of this! If you do, rate the show! Even if you dont get value, i would still appreciate an honest rating and or review. I always appreciate any feedback, so I can continue to delivery value that is actually needed. On that note, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show! This podcast is sponsored by Anchor

Its because some new and trending "hot" product, is NOT the answer.... While it may get some sales upfront, its not a sustainable business model...
