In this episode of the Profitable Steward Podcast, Jared Sorensen sits down with rancher and marketing coach Amy Hay (Sell Beef Direct) to unpack a proven, step-by-step system for selling meat direct to consumer—without guesswork. You’ll learn how to build a simple sales platform, attract the right customers, and turn stewardship into sustainable profit.

What you’ll learn:

• The 5-piece platform that converts: social → website → landing page → email → store
• How to identify and target real buyers (not freebie seekers)
• Why landing pages beat websites for conversions (and what to put on them)
• Email that sells: subject lines, cadence, and tracking what works
• Pre-selling quarters/halves, deposits that reduce no-shows, and simple bundles
• Shipping vs. local drop points, and using subscriptions for steady cash flow
