Cubicle to CEO Ellen Yin

ManyChat has entered the chat in a big way over the last few years, so we’re bringing you a practical case study from an entrepreneur who has successfully leveraged this to skyrocket her post engagement and sales.

Video marketing strategist, Keenya Kelly, started using ManyChat in 2020 to gather leads and convert them into paying customers. Her strategy has led to 18% conversion rates and over $15,000 in revenue in the last 60 days alone!

Keenya walks us through each step of her chatbot automation sequence (including the exact wording of the messages sent) so you can skip the learning curve and hit the ground running with setting up your own automations.

Listen until the end to discover the types of content that trigger the most responses to initiate chatbot conversations, why Keenya doesn’t send fresh leads straight to paid offers, and an innovative way to leverage chatbots to stand out to brands for paid partnerships.

If you are a longtime listener of our show, then you’re probably used to hearing our quarterly income reports, but this year we’re testing quarterly reviews instead! Don’t worry, you’ll still get access to new income report episodes, just on an annual basis instead.

It's very important to us to continue to create financially transparent content, and we are very proud of the advocacy work we've done over the last five years to contribute to that mission.

With these quarterly reviews we will share what's working in our business, what we've learned, and what we're celebrating. We are excited to be able to share a more zoomed out look at the business’ finances over the course of a whole year - while still providing insight from our biggest moments and favorite takeaways every 90 days!

Ready to dive into our Q1 2024 review? Let’s do it!

Not clickbait! I recently went through a formal valuation process for my business to see what it’s actually worth, and whether selling (now or in the future) would make sense for its continued growth.

Are you misallocating your company’s resources on a product that’s stunting your growth? Today’s case study investigates this dilemma.

Michelle Razavi, CEO and co-founder of the gut-friendly food company, Elavi, recently faced this roadblock head on. After successfully launching the company in 2020 with collagen protein bars, she made the tough decision to cut this entire product line - giving up $100,000 in guaranteed revenue in the process - in favor of going all-in on their new (and more promising) product line of dessert cashew butter spreads.

Mere months later, Elavi’s dessert butters were picked up by retailing giant Costco, AND they’re now on track to generate $1M this year!

It's not easy to let go of something you poured your heart into, but what if doing so could open the door to a new, million-dollar opportunity? Michelle walks us through how she came to this decision, the pitching strategy that got Costco’s attention, and why this pivot 10Xed their revenue.
