I've talked and written about what I call "Start With The Last Thing First". E.g., when it comes to creating your offer, start with the last thing first - your sales page. And within that, start with the last thing first - the pricing table. Start with the end goal and work your way backward.

I have an acronym for Urgency Scarcity and Exclusivity: USE. You've got to use USE in all of your offers. Every offer should end in a call to action (CTA) – like “Buy this”, “Click here”, “Sign up” or “Call us”. But a CTA alone isn’t always enough to get your audience to take action. There needs to be some additional motivation to get them to take action now. Without that added motivation, your offer will probably get set aside for “I’ll get back to this later”. And “later” usually means “never”, because you may not get another chance to get them back to your website.

What most people will do after they finish writing a Kindle book, is they'll promote it for a little bit, and then they'll move on to their next book or digital product. Instead, I recommend you go deeper into your book.

The reason why I had the biggest book launch of my life, was because it was all about The Offer. The offer is not just the product and not just a short landing page with a few bullet points about the product and a buy button. As legendary Harvard Business School Professor, Theodore Levitt once said, “People don’t want to buy a quarter-inch drill – they want a quarter-inch hole.” Check out my 8th book at https://DogpooBook.com Listen to the show for the rest at https://SubscribeMe.fm Or search for "SubscribeMe.fm" in your favorite podcast app. Episode brought to you by https://S3MediaVault.com - Audio & Video Player for Amazon S3 & File Protector for Amazon S3 and CloudFront Also, you can now download my premium Kindle book for free (as a PDF) for the next couple of days, at https://OneDayOneTime.com

I frequently encounter entrepreneurs and digital creators online who spend a lot of time creating an elaborate online course, spend months, even a year or more creating a course or an entire digital library, working on the content, setting up the membership site, hiring a copywriter to write the copy for the sales page, lining up affiliate partners to help them with the promotion, setting up a bunch of Facebook ads, priming their list. And then they launch it to their list and then... crickets. I talk about how you can avoid that situation.
