    How to Sell Before You’re Ready: Beta Testing Secrets | S2 Ep30

    Answer this week's question... Check out Jonathan's NEW Podcast: The Story Lab Podcast https://thestorylabpodcast.buzzsprout.com/ ___________________________________ Think you need to have your course or program perfect before you launch it? Nope.  That’s where beta testing comes in. It gives you a way to test, tweak, and learn—all while making sales. Beta testing isn’t about giving away your offer for free or settling for less—it’s about creating alongside your audience, gathering real feedback, and making your offer stronger with every round. In this episode of Coffee Social, Jonathan and I share how beta testing can help you: 💡 Build as you go (without waiting months to “be ready”) 🗣️ Get direct feedback on what’s working—and what’s not 📍 Learn where your community prefers to connect (FB group, email, etc.) 💸 Practice selling at a lower price point so you can gain confidence and later charge your full value 🎯 Adjust your content to play to your strengths while helping students get better results The truth is: beta testing benefits you just as much as your audience. You’ll walk away with insights, momentum, and a stronger offer you know works. Ready to stop waiting for perfect and start testing in real time?  Grab a cup and enjoy! ☕ DID YOU LOVE THIS EPISODE A LATTE? 😂 Give the podcast 5 STARS & write an awesome review!

    Social Media Numbers Don't Lie, But They Do Need Interpreting | S2 E27

    Answer this week's question... Are you TEAM looking at data or TEAM ignore & create? You don’t need to obsess over likes and views to know if your content is working. 📊 Let’s be real—too many creators measure success with the wrong numbers. The truth? Your posts could be hitting your goals harder than you realize—you just have to track the right metrics for the stage you’re in. In this episode of Coffee Social, we break down the social media metrics map to focus on for every goal in your marketing funnel: 📈 Awareness – impressions, likes, video views, and audience size  💬 Demand – comments, shares, and engagement rate  🛒 Conversions – link clicks and page conversions  📚 Adoption – brand mentions, reply rate, and response time  🙌 Advocacy – UGC, post engagement, and % of impressions If you’ve been stuck in “vanity metric” mode or second-guessing your results, this is your roadmap to finally measure what matters—and grow with purpose.

    The Break-Up Episode | S2 E26

    Answer this week's question... Are you TEAM hide & ignore it or TEAM tell the truth? Not every collab is meant to last. And that’s okay. 💔 Let’s be real—sometimes a business collaboration just isn’t the vibe you thought it would be. Whether it’s a social media series or brand partnership, you had high hopes. Matching energy. Maybe even a shared Canva folder. But somewhere along the way you realize… this isn’t working. In this episode of Coffee Social, we’re talking about the awkward, uncomfortable, but completely necessary art of ending a collaboration gracefully (and professionally). If you’ve been feeling stuck, stressed, or guilty about wanting to pull the plug on a collab—you’re not alone. Mimi opens up about the internal panic she feels when ending partnerships, while Jonathan brings his signature bluntness (and some very needed tough love 💥). You don’t have to ghost, lie, or over-explain. You just need honesty, boundaries, and a little courage. Pour yourself a strong brew—it’s time for the breakup talk.
