About this episode
I talk a lot about 'living the life', enjoying freedom and all of that. And in order to get freedom, I tell you to start an online business. Well, yes - all of that is true. But here's the thing. A business is not a business unless you are making sales. Actually, if you're not making sales, and you're putting out online content etc., then all you really have is a glorified hobby. There are two things - basically - that you need in order to have a functioning online business. There are: traffic + conversions. It's great if you can get traffic, by starting a popular Twitter account, YouTube channel or whatever. But if you can't convert that traffic into actual sales then you may as well not have it. (OK, it's nice to have an audience. But 'nice' isn't going to pay the bills). And so you bash away week after week at your personal media, your blog, whatever, and you're noy getting the results you need. Is this online biz stuff for me? You ask. Am I cut out for it? Are there simply some people who can 'do it' and others who can't. And then the negativity sets in. The thought that you'll never escape that 9-5. That you'll be forever trapped in mediocrity. In despair. And yet - there is a way out. And it's really NOT that difficult. It's called learning to sell. NOW, in an online sense, a lot of selling is done in writing - in words. And it's called copywriting. Copywriting gets talked about a lot online - and there's a lot of BS spoken about it too. But if you want to have a sustainable career in biz then you NEED to learn it. Thankfully, my buddy Nate Schmidt over on Twitter has put together THE preeminent course on it, called Brain Dead Simple Copy.
