By the way, Keanisha you might be interested in connecting with this lady or some of the folks who commented, I think it would be worth your time to go through the comments and connect with some of them:

You can literally start doing this kind of thing if you want.

With the Christian topic it's much harder, I have a handful of paid Christian classes, but I usually end up not feeling right about charging.

So I feel a little like Paul in the New Testament - this is my tent making and then I do "Faith Based" Videos to share the message :-)

This newsletter was initially designed with more of a Christian emphasis . . and I may go back to it

I truly appreciate your support!

I’ve heard that before from a few different people, that the Christian industry is hard, but then I hear it’s possible and that they’re making big cash. I’m willing to give it a try because I really enjoy the personal life story theme. I like my maintaining joy newsletters also

I’m into making newsletters. But I’m willing to try!

So I honestly think it's possible, I think the key is making it something that's easily shared, and find a way to go wide with more people, with less money per person. The one thing you have to fight in the Christian market is that they don't all agree on silly little things . . so sometimes in communities you have to calm things down!!

but if that's your heart and that's where God's leading - go for it!

Thank you so much. My goal is to look for a few good retainer’s , I love writing on Medium and Substack. I talk about other stuff too. I will check out your course and take your advice. Of corse if an opportunity comes forward and it’s something else then I will try it as far as getting paid clients but I’m just enjoying the personal stories

Yes I could use help and guidance with your course

would you want to create a course you can sell?

At what point in the amount of subs you have start to make this beneficial? I’m guessing with little to no people doing the live sessions were pretty empty. I’m curious where and how that shift happened.

so what's interesting is, I just did the stats for last 30 days, I got ~268 subs here in the last 30 days, almost excluslvely from notes and my newsletters

sure, I have 2000 subs already, but I honestly don't believe they contributed to 95% of these new subs . .

I truly believe you could do what I've done, even starting from ZERO

That is very interesting! Thanks for sharing that. I like your transparency.

Interesting idea. I gave a live session for the audience of a friend of mine and what a good thing that she recorded it and sent me the replay.

I thought of editing the replay and adding some extra resources to go along with it.

I would have never thought about doing something like that if I hadn’t seen people before offering replays as standalone products.

yes, if it's valuable, people will buy it.

and if they buy it, they actually watch it!

I truly want to believe that last part.

Well done Sean, the cream always rises to the top

Thank you, sir, you are always so kind!

Well done, Sean - $29 is a fair price for something that has been recorded live. Sure, you could polish it up or rerecord to sell at $199 but then you don‘t hit the audience who needs it!

So true Gunnar, there are so many options in repackaging it. But at this price the barrier is low!

Expand full comment

… customers who bought this also bought that - much easier at $29 than at $99

Expand full comment

yes, indeed . . .. and there are upsells as well.

and ultimately a $97/month coaching program too.

Long time clients are repeat buyers, as I am constantly iterating new class topics, so there's often new material for long term clients and buyers.
