I recently had a coaching call with one of my done-for-you clients about her conversion rates. She was converting about 3% of her leads from her webinar over to Fitting Calls. And for her price point of her program, getting a 4-5% conversion rate is pretty standard. But after some close inspection of the numbers and a deep dive into the moving part of her webinar and lead generation efforts, we decided she shouldn't focus on increasing her conversion rate. Instead she should focus on something else.In this week's 6-Figure Secrets Podcast episode I share why it's important to know what your industry standard are, but also why it's even more important to create your own metrics.TAKEAWAYS:Funnels are a predictable way to grow and scale business. When the funnel works it adds fuel to the fire. It magnifies your message and gets you in front of more people who need and want your help. The funnel serves people in a way that works for you and works for them.Feed the machine. If your funnel is working, and you want t

Before I create anything (social post, blog post, new program, etc.), I usually test it out in Instagram Stories first.This helps guide me in creating anything in my business before I actually put the work in to create the actual content. It’s important to ask the people who are following me if the content actually resonates with them and if I’m actually having conversations with people on topics that matter to them. I have been able to develop awesome relationships with people who became clients, colleagues, and friends by opening myself up to these conversations.I challenge you to post something every single day and ask for feedback from your audience. Let the info you gather inform your next move. TAKEAWAYS:Stories help me to land on new podcast topics, masterclass, and carousel topics.

I am a VERY cerebral person. Meaning, I need things spelled out very succinctly and in a very obvious way. I’m also an enneagram 9, which means I love to stay in my comfort zone. So goal achievement has ALWAYS been hard for me in my business.Now in things like sports, I’m good to go. I'm pretty atheltic, so I've been relatively good at most sports I've tried. Again because I'm a very cereberal person, it's very obvious with a sport if you've accomplished your goal. You etiher win or lose. There's no gray area, only black or white. With business, because I’m in charge, there’s no one really holding me accountable. Goal achievement isn't so obvious, and unlike with sports, running a business is not something that comes naturally to me.So, I created a visual reminder of my sales this year so I can clearly see if I am actively reaching my goals. My intention in sharing this with you is to help you establish some sort of visual reminder to help you very clearly see if and how close you are to your goal. TAKEAWAYS:

I came to the conclusion in early 2023 that if I wanted different results this year, I would have to actually do something differently. I’ve wanted to, for YEARS, have a masterclass that converts. Like a tried and true, somewhat internet-famous, masterclass that calls in soulmate clients. But doing a masterclass every quarter, like I’ve seen a lot of the experts do, and also advice that I’ve been given by coaches that I’ve worked with, didn’t help me to do it often enough. I wanted to rinse and repeat, so that I could adjust and tweak and so the lack of frequency wasn’t really helping me to create that masterclass. So I decided to create a weekly masterclass and I started to see results. This episode I’ll share with you how I organized my masterclass and the things I learned from doing a weekly masterclass!TAKEAWAYS:Always get your masterclass in front of new leads. I do this by doing lead magnet swaps, Meta Ads, and summits. It’s important to know where your leads are coming from and that you track your conv

I’m a HUGE fan of selling something, as soon as someone enters onto your email list. Why? Because it creates a culture of selling. And as a result of that selling…buying. And when people buy from you they can create and experience transformation and you can pay for things!It's a win, win for everyone involved! But how do you sell outside of your normal Pitch Sequence and gain that know, like, trust factor to keep your leads coming back for more? Let me tell you all about it in this episode!

They include your tripwire, in the welcome email, inside of the lead magnet, your Nurture Sequence, and content you are driving from in your Nurture Sequence. I’ll give you more details for each of these in the episode!I would recommend that this thing you’re going to be selling be a low-priced digital product, somewhere between the $7 - $47 range. I find with these 5 places, anything above $47 just doesn’t get bought.There’s also another benefit to

Being an entrepreneur requires you to think about problems differently, and then it requires you to do differently. Which is why it seems so foreign to focus on your time, if you want to make more money.In today’s episode, I share with you how one of my 1:1 clients got more time back, and made more money, by hiring a VA and spending her time on more revenue producing activities. If nothing less, I hope this episode gets you to start to think about making money differently.TAKEAWAYS:Time is money. When you want to make more money, you should focus on how you’re spending your time.Track your time. One way to see how you are spending your time is to track what you’re doing. There’s a great app called Toggl where you can track your tasks throughout the day. I suggest you do this for at least a week.As an entrepreneur, you’re creating your own system.

Social media is changing, there’s no getting around that! The pendulum swings, depending on consumer fatigue and algorithm changes.
