“What is the best way to research prospects in my target market?” and more...
Sent by Jonathan Stark on August 22nd, 2019
In today’s group coaching session, we had a bunch of good questions that touched on topics like:
- 3 ways to manage your pipeline when you are near max capacity
- 3 ways to grow your mailing list
- How to set up simple but effective email marketing
- What to do if you want to land a book deal
- The easiest way to survey prospective clients
Good stuff!
Here are some of the questions I answered today:
Most of my work is coaching (on-site and remote) with some training. Great balance now of work, content creation, and pipeline. Add 2-3 more clients and I will be out of balance. What do I say to people I’ve been courting who say yes, but then I’m too busy? How do you manage the pipeline when you are near max capacity? (timestamp: 1m 29s)
I’m setting up a 7 email course and then moving them onto a list where I email 3-5 times per week. I like to go 80/20 on this. Can you tell me a bit more about the mechanics of your email list setup? After you deliver your 6 lessons, do you then move them off that sequence and onto your daily email list automatically, or do you offer a new opt-in? If they’re in the Bootcamp Lessons sequence, do you isolate them so they don’t get your daily emails? Any other tips? (timestamp: 7m 10s)
My weekly email list (content delivery similar to your daily email) is opt-in. How do I grow it? (timestamp: 19m 16s)
I’m interested in knowing how to publish a book? You once asked about it on your newsletter and at that time I didn’t even consider it. I’d like something similar to your social networking process sheet (an overview of how to make it happen) (timestamp: 28m 2s)
Survey/Original Research: have you ever surveyed your prospective clients to conduct original research, to establish yourself as a thought leader, etc? Any thoughts on this? (timestamp: 48m 31s)
