Why Having MORE Freebies WON'T Get You Sales.
In today's episode we'll be diving into freebies and lead magnets. So many experts will advise you to "grow your list" and create all these freebies - but do you know how to maximize this strategy so you'll *actually* produce sales? I used to be that new coach that would pump out a freebie every month because a guru "told me to"... only to find that it was not the most effective strategy. Instead, I was wasting a lot of my time on canva doing "busy work" with very little results and a list that I wasn't optimizing. This episode will dive into these mistakes in depth, as well as my advice on how to REALLY get results in business - and no, it's not doing more freebies!

What Your Audience Wants vs. What YOU Want (Which One Should You Listen To?)
In business, market research is one of the most important things. You have to (and should!) listen to your audience… BUT there IS a fine line with that. There’s feedback that is extremely valuable and can take your business to new heights and there’s also feedback that will DISTRACT you and BLOCK you from reaching your business goals.

In today’s episode we’re going to talk about that dilemma: How do you know when to listen to your audience, and when to listen to your own intuition? What if you disagree with the feedback? What if the feedback is making you question everything? By listening to today’s episode, you’re going to learn exactly HOW you can differentiate the difference between solid market research that you do that's going to drive your business FORWARD vs. the type of market research that actually HURTS your business.   Sign up for the free masterclass: www.bossgramacademy.com/masterclass

The Difference Between a Course that Flops vs. a Course that Makes $450,000 (And What Elon Musk Has To Do With It.)
Most people in my community know about my current program called The BOSSGRAM Academy, but a lot of people don't know that I actually had a course that I tried to launch before that and it was called the Fear to Freedom Blueprint.   
The Free to Freedom Blueprint is a program that never saw the light because I didn't get enough signups ... so I took it down. I think as coaches or as entrepreneurs, it's so important for us to talk about our failures and to be able to have our communities learn from our failures.   That's why this episode will dive deep into why my first course flopped and compare it to how my current program, The BOSSGRAM Academy, managed to gross $450,000 in US sales (now $600,000+ after recording this episode!).   While I compare the differences between a program that makes $0 to a program that makes half a million, I also want to talk about what I learned from Elon Musk when it comes to launching coaching programs online.   So if you're interested in learning about my story, learning about the key differences between one course absolutely failed and one course that absolutely thrived, PLUS my key takeaways from Elon Musk, then this episode is perfect for you!     Sign up for the free masterclass: www.bossgramacademy.com/masterclass

I got fired by a client. Here's what happened and how to handle it.
Maybe this is a topic that really hits home for you. Maybe it's something that is your biggest fear to be fired by a client or maybe it's something that happened to YOU and you have been really keeping it to yourself because you're embarrassed about it.   To be honest with you, this is actually the very first time that I've talked about this publicly. When I got fired by a client, it really took a big toll on my self esteem to the point where I actually contemplated shutting down my business.   This is a real story where a former client of mine blindsided me and told me that she no longer wanted to work with me. It’s something that took me a long while to recover from.   By the end of this episode, I give you guys some key lessons that I learned from this situation so if YOU ever find yourself in a similar position you’ll be able to find the strength to pick yourself back up from your feet and you not give up on your business.   Sign up for the free masterclass: www.bossgramacademy.com/masterclass
