    I tried out a “pay what you want” option on an offer, here’s how it went

    In today’s episode I share how I tried out a “pay what you want” option on an offer, here’s how it went: Earlier this year I wanted to experiment with something new in my launch strategy for a brand new offer. Kajabi has a new “pay what you want” feature that allows your customer to enter what they want to pay at checkout. There’s no set price (you can set a minimum) and it’s up to the customer to choose what the value is. In this episode, I share what I learned from this experiment: Using this feature can be a good way to do a/b testingIt can be a way to collect data from your customers to help set an official price pointWhen I let my target group in this experiment pay what they wanted, they chose to pay an average of $15 for the offerI ignored the average people chose to pay because I saw the actual value and I increased and set the price two different times with great resultsNew customers might not see the value in a paid offer like your current customers doPeople see the value that you assign to the offerIt’s through your marketing that you’re attaching value to the amount you’re charging for the offerPick a price you can stand behind and work on your marketing messaging to show the worth Resources & Links: The Online BlueprintStories that SellIG UniversityKajabi 30 day free trial + 20 free story templates Connect with Mya: Follow on Instagram @myanicholJoin my email listCheck out my websiteNow on YouTube Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!

    Is your offer launch not going as planned?

    Is your offer launch not going as planned? In today’s episode I am talking all about tangible options you can do to turn it around. I’ll share my real world struggle I’m currently facing myself with my own offer and how I’m navigating that. Failed launches are inevitable and they happen to every business offer; but giving up is not an option! There’s always more things we can try.  In this episode, I cover two different scenarios and options for each to spark ideas for you to try such as:  Post reel or content that relates to the offer that you can use a CTA withTarget a specific group or segment from your email list to send content tolShare a different perspective on the offer that you haven’t shared beforeAsk people what’s holding them back from purchasing and listen to their feedbackMake small tweaks to marketing messaging to see what gets better tractionExtend deadline of launchAdd a bonus for the next X amount of people who join the offerRelaunch your offerRefine your offer For additional guidance, check out The Launch Bundle.  Resources & Links: The Launch BundleProfit Mavens SummitStories that SellIG UniversityKajabi 30 day free trial + 20 free story templates Connect with Mya: Follow on Instagram @myanicholJoin my email listCheck out my websiteNow on YouTube Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!
