Want to change your customers… Change your bait. A simple way to attract the right customers into your business. ---Transcript--- Hey everyone, this is Russell. I am driving behind my wife to take my kids to the dentist. We’re going to do a very special Marketing in your Car. Like I said, we are heading to the dentist right now to take all of our kids to the kid dentist which is usually a lot of fun, but about a 15 to 20 minute drive so I’m going to do a Marketing in your Car. What I want to talk about today, this is probably one of the coolest phenomenons I think that I’ve had in my business for a long time, my own personal insight. If I look at my business, especially over the last probably four or five years, just because of what we were doing, I was trying to attract more people that are business opportunity seekers. You could tell by the products we’ve created and services we’ve created, they’re very much geared towards that, how to make your first money online, how to – it was all starting, starting, starting type stuff. It’s interesting because we were able to find a lot of traffic of beginners so we built a big business based on that but the problem that I’ve had is the beginners are so much more work, more effort, and it’s so much harder to get them to where they want to go, even though I think our coaching programs and everything we have is awesome. It’s just harder to get people. We always say it’s easier to go from good to great than it is to go from nothing to something that’s good. I’ve always wanted to work with people who have more traditional businesses. We’ve done some work with people like that but not to full scale. I think my biggest concern was always if I create an offer that’s build towards business owners, they’re harder to target. It’s not as easy as people who want to start a business. It’s really easy to find people who want to start a business. Finding people who already have a business and helping them to launch it and grow it, that’s traditionally the harder part. Because of that, I think I’ve had a fear of doing that, being able to grow our business bigger and all those kinds of things. We keep going back to more the beginners. We were trying to create our new Dot Com Secrets Labs product. It was interesting, we first launched it as a print newsletter. It was $97 a month. We marketed it hard. It was hard to get people in. We had a couple hundred people but it never grew bigger. That was shocking to me because I really thought it was our best product we ever created. It was more valuable and more useful. The problem was I was really good at attracting opportunity seekers, but not as good at getting actual business owners. For an opportunity seeker, you talk about split testing and it doesn’t really make sense to them. Why would I? I don’t even have a website. Why would I split test? I have to get something to work for them to try to make it better, right? It never really took off. We ran it for six or seven months. Finally, I was frustrated because of how much effort and work had to go into it and how much money came out the back end, it just didn’t add up. We couldn’t keep doing it. Then the girl who was publishing it for us, she just had her second baby and she basically came to me and said, “Hey, I want to retire from publishing the newsletter.” We decided to stop. The stuff we produced was the best stuff we had. It’s super amazing and it’s changed our company almost overnight. I think other people to look at it and model it, it could have huge impact on them. Because of that, I didn’t want it to die. She gave us one month notice. I said, “For the last month, instead of making a whole new issue, let’s just take the best of all of our tests and plug them into one book and sell it for $400 or $500. Because it’s just for business owners, kind of a high end thing, we just won’t sell a bunch of them but we’ll have that there and that will be one of our products.” We created the whole thing. When it
