    312. Do this and 2x your next Product Launch

    If you're like most store owners I talk to, you probably put a ton of time into finding the perfect product, invest in inventory, get excited about having something new to offer… and then the results are a little underwhelming. And I bet you immediately think: maybe nobody wants this. Maybe the product was wrong. But here's what I know after working with hundreds of store owners — in almost every case, it's not the product. It's a missing step in your strategy. In this week's episode, I'm walking you through our wait list launch strategy step by step. This is training we use inside the Inner Circle, and I'm sharing the whole thing with you — including a real example from one of our coaches who used it and sold out completely.   You'll learn: → Why launching without a wait list sets you up for disappointment → How to build anticipation so people are ready to buy before you even open the cart → The exact 4-step process to run your own wait list launch → How to use this even if you don't have a new product to launch   I really think this one could change how you think about launching. Give it a listen and let me know what you think.   RELATED LINKS: Morgan's strategy to sell out her new collections https://www.thesocialsalesgirls.com/blog/morgans-strategy-to-sell-out-her-new-collections-episode-221 €600+ sales with a list of 40.

    310: The real reason your sales are unpredictable

    Recently, I've been working with a group of eCommerce owners who have great products. They're probably much like you! They have good weeks - and some not so good weeks - and over time it feels like a lot of effort to get results that are so much less than what you want. And after a while, you start wondering things like: "What am I missing - I must be doing something wrong"" But here's what I see when we start looking at the data.I don't see them doing anything wrong - . The problem is much simpler than that. And it's completely fixable. One teaching point, a "hook" and CTA "listen in" Most store owners are missing ONE thing when they're running their businesses, and for most, it's the reason you feel like you're guessing when it comes to growing your sales.

    307. Disaster proof your Business - here's how

    Join us in this episode as we explore Sam Gilhooley's remarkable journey from bed rest to business boss. Sam, owner of Magnetics and a student of our Reliable Revenue course, shares what happened when illness took her out of her business for seventeen months. Listen in and find out: 💪 How Sam finally "put down the tape gun" and started working ON, not in, her business. ⚙️ What happened when she implemented an automated system to put sales on auto-pilot. 😴How Sam kept earning a paycheck while on bed rest for seventeen months.   Sam's story is a testament to the resilience and growth possible when you have the right systems in place. Don't miss this inspiring episode – tune in to learn how you can make your business resilient and successful, even in the most challenging times. PS  Sam was able to pay herself for 17 months while she was unable to work. Basically, it was because she had done the work we teach in Reliable Revenue before she got sick. We only offer this program once a year, and I truly believe that every store owner should do this work. _______________________   Are you constantly asking yourself how to make your website better or questioning your prices?

    306: Jen Isn't Making Enough Profit

    What if the problem isn't profit—but sales? In this episode, I sit down with Inner Circle member Jen, who's wondering if her business is worth continuing. She's doing the work. She's tracking her numbers. But she's not making enough money to justify the effort—and she's seriously questioning whether it's time to pack it in. What we discovered together might surprise you. Because once we looked at her numbers, it turns out profit isn't the problem at all. This is a real-time coaching call that walks through: The real story her numbers are telling—and why one bad month doesn't mean the business is broken Why cutting expenses isn't a scalable solution (and what to do instead) What a healthy profit margin actually looks like—and how Jen's business compares The four metrics you actually need to track—and what they mean If you've ever looked at your bank account and thought, "Why isn't this working?" this is the episode for you.
