When it comes to messaging, there are 4 main areas I like to focus on: educational (what to do), thought reversal (shifting perspectives), self-identifying (so your audience is thinking, OMG, that’s me!), and the fourth and the most overlooked of them all is connection content. Ready to learn why and how to connect with your
If you’re growing a business, then you’ve certainly heard of “niching down.” But most of the time, entrepreneurs will niche down to a small group of people. For example, a yoga teacher might niche down to women, and then women in their 40’s. They might even niche further, like women who are moms in their
I’ve grown multiple businesses over the years, and looking back, the most successful had 6 fundamentals that led to their success. (And the ones that weren’t successful were missing a few of these fundamentals). In fact, when all 6 were properly used, those offers grew the quickest! Ask me to launch a new product or
I remember starting my first business and feeling like everything was on my shoulders. Retirement, insurance, writing myself a paycheck (when I could)… I kept wondering how everyone else was doing it! Because $5,000 in revenue was not $5,000 in the bank. But what I didn’t understand was the difference between a money machine and
One question I hear all the time… If you had to start all over and build a million-dollar business in 2024, how would you do it? And today, I’m going to answer it alongside my good friend James Wedmore. If you don’t know James, his online course business has over $80 million in sales, he
We all have insecurities and negative patterns we fall into like guilting or victimhood. This can take the form of thoughts like, “Why am I not ‘there’ yet?”, or, “What’s wrong with me? Why Can’t I figure this out?” It’s especially easy to fall into these thoughts and emotions when starting something new like a
As a business owner with over 1,000 students in my programs at any given time, we’ve built a team of go-to coaches who are in the know when it comes to our teachings and what students need. Our senior coaches work with students each day. They know what’s working, what’s not, and how to help
Students often ask me to help them with their messaging on an opt-in page, and when I ask what it’s converting at, they say 40%. My response? Nope, that opt-in page does not need help. Uncovering what’s working with your messaging and what’s not is HUGE in your business. Because otherwise, you’re wasting time and
You’ve heard me talk about educational content quite a bit and how it shouldn’t be 100% of the content you put out there. But it does play an important role in your messaging when you do need to teach, like in webinars or a percentage of your social media content. For my students, many get
Imagine using only a few sentences to help your audience understand the root cause of their problem and see you and what you provide as the solution. You’d know what to say and when to say it to build the bridge between the problem and your solution, ultimately bringing in more sales. This is the
Ever feel like life is out to get you? Divorces, broken partnerships, a business that tanks… Over the past three years, I’ve been slapped with problem after problem, change after change stripped down to nothing and stuck in survival mode. I found a handful of lessons that helped me move through the chaos faster, rebuild
Ever post two almost-identical reels and one explodes with 2 M views while the other flops at 8 K? That happened to me, and I was scratching my head. I dug into Content Lab’s analytics and realized it wasn’t just the framework it was the teaching. The videos that blew up weren’t simple tutorials. They
Ever feel like your spot could be filled by someone else? Last week, hiking in Flagstaff, I hit the snowline and had an epiphany: we all operate like we’re replaceable even in our own niches. Fast forward to our team retreat in Telluride (side note: those peaks align with Orion!), and I realized this replaceable
Ever scroll past a post that nails your exact pain point and think, “How did they get inside my head?” If it doesn’t happen every day, we need to fix that. I used to watch teams craft generic ads that spoke to everyone and resonated with no one. Then I discovered diagnosing: a simple shift
“Brandon, how do I attract more buyers into my funnel?” I get this question all the time. And here’s the truth: even with a great offer, only 2.5-5% of the people in your funnel are ever going to buy. That’s just how conversion works. So if your sales are falling flat, it’s usually not a
Ever feel like you’re preaching into the void? You launch your solution, shout about the features… and hear crickets. They’re not ignoring you they just can’t see why they need it. I used to do the same thing: start at the finish line. Pitch first, connect later. No wonder nobody tuned in. In today’s world,
