thanks. the only really useful part of this leadmagnet was the give give give pitch pitch formula. The rest I saw no way to use or customize for my own purposes.
"Everytime you ask for money, somebody will send you money" - Graham Cochrane 2021 :D Almost spit out my coffee laughing... Love it. Out of context it sounds insane, but it is true. I never really trusted that you can sell so well through email, but it works in my business and why not do something that works. :)
Did this communication course once, which include stepping over your own fears and boundaries - one of the exercises was to literally ask people for money (talk them into giving you some money for nothing): it really works 😎 But man, was that awkward…
I wasn't sending my blog or RU-vid via email, plus I wasn't asking for money. You are definitely offering valuable products. Love your straight forward no nonsense approach. 🙏😍
Thanks for all this value Graham! Going to start implementing these soon. Already do the weekly newsletter but I'll start by creating a promotional calendar!
Good stuff! I'm relatively new. I've been building the tech infrastructure and I'm about the launch my first product funnel (lead magnet & then two upsells) - a lot more planned in the future and I'll be using a lot of your advice on emails and more. THank you!
Even though this is several months old, it's evergreen and is so helpful. Spectacular stuff, glad I found you through your incredible Kajabi membership tutorial. Thank you Graham!
You've totally convinced me about the weekly email. I've been really bad about that. I have several businesses, several RU-vid channels and I'm always busy. I upload weekly or more so thanks for just reminding me how simple it can be to just share my most recent video.
Been a fan of the recording revolution for years. Recently started watching The Graham Cochrane show and and got hooked. I love business. This is really going to help me out
Really enjoyed and valued this today Graham. Thank you so much ... My most missing piece in this particular puzzle is no.3 - Calls for engagement. I sort of ask, but not directly enough. Getting crickets back is hard. I think my other problem is actually allowing myself to be seen often enough - and maybe I need to simplify things more. Vocal technique is a HUGE topic. Maybe, they don't know what to ask!
Hey Graham! I am ramping up my course behind the scenes, but I am SO LOST when it comes to the tech side . (I have to screen share, stream, AND share my mic/video)I saw a vid once you did on your podcast setup, but a video in more detail on your tech would be so helpful! (then I can swipe it... ;) )
We're "walking the walk" with weekly content and quarterly offers, but could do more with calls for engagement and special exclusive content to our list only - thanks, Graham!
Thank you for the value of this. I am just starting out with affiliate marketing and my building of an email list, I will definitely be using this valuable information to grow my list.
Very useful Graham, thanks. I’ve been doing most of my selling for the past year through social media challenges and launches but I’ve been finding that exhausting. So I’ve spent money this autumn on lead ads to build my email list from 200 to 1000 and I’m now going to be continuing to grow that list and nurture them. I’ve actually been doing all four types but in an ad hoc way. This is what is going to change going forward - I’m going to plan it out in a systematic way.
The other BIG change is that I’ve decided to commit to my email list more, and it will now be my chief focus. I’ve been focussing mainly on growing and nurturing my Facebook group for the past two years but it’s a lot of work for little profit. So I’ve actually closed my group - let it go completely - and I’m now going to focus on growing and nurturing my email list. Let’s see how this goes!
Graham, what would you say in the first email to your existing list if you havent written like for two years and want to reconnect, filter who is still interested and who is not, and start offering value again, from a new, more enriched perspective? (And then sell my first online course)
