Six questions

Since we're only two days away from the deadline to apply for Sell It, Then Build It

I wanted to answer the most common questions we've been getting from folks who are interested.

Because if you're on the fence about applying, the LAST thing I want is for "not enough info" to be the reason you don't take a big step toward launching your product.

Quick Reminder: Sell It, Then Build It is a 15-person mastermind where my team and I give you everything you need to start bringing in sales for your next online course, coaching program, or consulting service—BEFORE you put an ounce of energy into creating it. Applications close on Wednesday and you can get yours in right here.

With that in mind, let's dig into some questions!

#1: How does the mastermind work? What's the format?

Sell It, Then Build It is a combination of both one-on-one and live group coaching that ensures you're always taking action, making progress, and getting results.

You'll start with 4 live group training sessions where my team will walk you step-by-step through creating the assets you need to launch your product and start bringing in sales. From making your offer irresistible to creating a high-converting email launch sequence, you'll have what you need to press "go" with confidence—plus individual feedback on everything you create.

Meanwhile, we'll also create a custom plan to help you continue driving new customers to your product week after week once it's launched. And we'll coach you through every step of executing it.

The ultimate result?

By the end of our time together, you'll not only have your first wave of sales...you'll also have an attack plan in place to continue attracting customers (without having to buy ads).

#2: What if I don't have a product yet?

The whole premise of Sell It, Then Build It is to help you launch and sell your next product BEFORE you build it. 

So if all you have right now is an idea, don't worry.

Instead of taking months or years to create something you hope people will buy, we're going to help you turn your idea into a sizzling offer your customers will happily buy before it's finished. Then, we'll show you exactly how to deliver it in a way that delights buyers and doesn't force you to spend crazy hours on product creation.

If you're worried about your launch flopping, this approach all but guarantees it will be a success before you dedicate a single second to creating your product. It removes the risk, puts cash in your hand from the get-go, and prevents you from delaying your launch any longer.

#3: What if I have no idea what to sell?

If you're at a place where you're not sure who your customers are and what you could offer them, it's probably not the right time for you to participate in Sell It, Then Build It.

#4: What kind of businesses does this work for?

This is for you if:

  1. You are a consultant, coach, or course creator who doesn't want to spend months or years planning your next product launch.
     
  2.  You want to avoid building a product that nobody actually wants to buy.
     
  3. You want guaranteed sales in the door BEFORE you invest any time and energy into building your product.
     
  4. You want a rock-solid, custom plan to bring in sales for your next product or service week after week without pumping money into expensive paid advertising channels like Facebook.

It doesn't matter what niche you serve. Or whether you're B2B or B2C. Or if your audience is tiny or big. As long as you have something to sell and an email list (even a small one) to sell it to, you'll be a good fit.

#5: What if I can't attend some of the live training sessions?

Since our live calls are action-oriented, we do encourage you to attend as many of them as possible. However, we also get that sometimes stuff happens. You'll have access to recordings of everything, so you'll be able to revisit the calls and catch up in your own time if you miss any.

There is one live training per week starting June 8th.

#6: How do I know this will work for me?

We have a long track record of being maniacally focused on increasing revenue for our clients. In fact, every week we showcase these results publicly on our Last Week's Wins page—check it out here.

Looking for launch-specific case studies? We've got those too:

Aaaaaand why not throw in a few more recent launch-related wins from clients for good measure? :)

Still have questions?

The good news is that when you apply for Sell It, Then Build It, we set up a Strategy Call with you before you're able to purchase enrollment. This allows us to be 100% certain your business is well-positioned to get fast results and ROI before you decide.

As I've said before, we want this to be a "heck yes" decision for you—and there is no obligation whatsoever to join if you apply.

So what have you got to lose?

Take a couple minutes to send in your application, schedule a time to talk with us, and find out what kind of results could be possible for your business.

Odds are, you're closer than you think to executing a game-changing launch for your business.

Apply before the deadline on Wednesday and we'll talk you through it!

Inside 4 successful product launches

Happy Friday!

Since the deadline for our new product launch mastermind (Sell It, Then Build It) is only a few days away, I wanted to give you an idea of what's possible when you have an experienced team in your corner to help you launch.

Because even though this is the first time we've offered this mastermind program…

It's NOT the first time we've helped businesses like yours launch products. :)

Below, you'll find 4 launch case studies from our coaching clients (all within the last year).

Check them out and imagine what could be possible for your business if you apply to join us before next week's deadline!

Case Study #1

Client: David Martin

The Product: Christian Creative Academy, a faith-based membership site for people who want to publish books or create online courses.

Image

Launch Results: $36,097 in initial launch revenue—before he even finished building the product!

What He Said: "It is possible to pre-sell something, and you can do so in an ethical way...That was a great learning for me, and I really appreciate Growth Tools leading me through that process.

"You guys have helped me really breakthrough into a place where I now have a very clear flagship product and a very clear demographic that I am aiming at to send traffic to and to bring people to and to serve on an ongoing basis, which actually is a huge breakthrough for me."

Case Study #2

Client: Johnn Four, the founder of Roleplaying Tips, a website that helps people who play tabletop role-playing games become better game masters.

The Product: The Epic Adventure Building Game Plan, an online course that helps game masters create better stories for their games.

Image

Launch Results: Johnn generated 299 sales @ $97 each for a total of $29,000 in initial launch revenue.

What He Said: "I had struggled to get something to launch state for 18 months...Feedback from the Growth Tools team improved my sales page, offer, and emails, but they also gave me the confidence and accountability to keep going even though I thought of changing directions a couple of times.

"Now I have a core product to include in my other marketing operations, and I have a clear and proven model for launching future products."

Case Study #3

Client: Adrienne Luedeking, the founder of Fruitfully Alive, a blog that teaches people how to finance their dream life through freelancing.

The Product: Freedom Through Freelancing, her online course and coaching program.

Image

Launch Results: Adrienne generated $60k in launch sales—which was 3x her previous launch!

What She Said: "Before Growth Tools, my efforts at growing my business were scattered and out of focus. I work hard on it every day, but I wasn't sure I was really going for the best opportunities, or spending my time on the right things, and hitting my income goals seemed like a far-away dream.

"Since joining, I have a targeted plan to work on every day, resources to help me, and coaches to give me feedback and get me unstuck. I know that with those resources, I am going to hit my goals this year."

Case Study #4

Client: Paul Kelly

The Product: The Excel VBA Handbook, an online course that teaches people how to build software applications using Excel.

Image

Launch Results: Paul generated $25k in sales (while doing less work than his previous launches)

What He Said: "My business was pretty good but I felt there was a lot of areas that could be improved. My signups have increased. I am converting more customers than before and sales are up a considerable amount. In fact, I did more sales in the first 8 months of this year than all of last year."

Check out the full case study <<<

This is what's possible when you stop trying to go it alone in your business.

Instead of letting the hundreds of things you could do for your launch overwhelm you, we keep you focused on the handful of things you should do. 

If you're tired of second guessing every decision…

If you'd love to have a clear, focused plan to get sales for your product before you invest in creating it…

And if you don't want to let another year go by with nothing but ideas to show for it…

Apply now for one of the 15 spots in Sell It, Then Build It—Our 4-Week Mastermind for Launching Your Next Product.

We'll take a closer look at your business and run you through a Strategy Call to make sure it's the right fit for you.

You must get your application in by Wednesday, June 2 to be eligible, so don't wait!
