Hey {firstname}

This is my first email to you (and my entire list) since before Xmas 2022...

Truth is, I've been under the weather for 2+ weeks...

Just a super annoying cold/fever and stuff - I'm much better now and more or less back to normal.

But it was a solid 10 days of not much work, to be honest.

Now that we got that out of the way...

I have some rapid-fire updates for you about what's coming in 2023...

And honestly, I want to keep this short and sweet, but if you've been on my list for a while...

You know my emails sometimes aren't short...

But today, I'll be testing something new...

I had a super clever recommendation from one of my DCT members who said he loves reading my emails but he's not a fan of READING in general and asked if I could perhaps record audio of the email and I thought "what a great idea!"

And so - that's why you saw at the very top an option to LISTEN and WATCH me read out this email.

If you like this, please REPLY and tell me your feedback.

I'll make this a permanent thing if it's truly desired. And I'll figure out a way to make it purely audio as well.

In this email I'll cover:

What does that mean?

It means that YouTube is going to start paying me for advertising that is displayed on my videos.

For example, let's say you watch one of my tutorials on Systeme or New Zenler or Kajabi or some other software review, chances are you see advertising at the beginning of it, and maybe sometimes in the middle.

When you click the link, the advertiser is charged for that click.

Say WIX is advertising on my channel, and you click on the ad.

If WIX is paying $1 per click to YouTube, YouTube gives me 55% of that click (i.e. 55 cents).

If the WIX is paying $10 per click, YouTube pays me $5.5 for that click!

That's one way to monetize a YouTube channel.

So by you simply watching my videos and clicking on ads, I make money.

That's how YouTube incentivizes creators like me to continue and create free content.

I'm still learning about how it all works, it only happened this week - but this is a rough outline.

Why does it matter to you?

If you read my "about me" page on my website, you'll get a good idea about me as a human and my personal goals.

For context, I wrote the draft of this page in late 2016.

What you see there now is not much different from that original draft.

I want to draw your attention to the ending of that page and what I wrote:

"My goal and mission is to help over a million people."

At the time I wrote it, I didn't know how, nor did I care too much about how.

But that was the driver.

Slowly, slowly, things have evolved in my life and I have been privileged to make a living by helping people.

I'm not passionate about technology as such.

Or funnels.

Or marketing.

But I am passionate about helping people.

And as long as I identify gaps in the market, and opportunities where I can help genuinely help people and be profitable at the same time - that's all I can ask for.

In 2023, I am really hoping that all my hard work is going to finally pay off and I can reach that goal that I set out to do in late 2016.

Which is help over a million people.

YouTube is my method to reach those millions - which is why I have been working so hard to build it up.

I wrote a blog to recap my 2022 year, which was an amazing year, and in there I summarized what happened in my life and broke it down month by month.

You can have a read of it if you're interested.

When I summarized the year, I saw that I have posted 150 YouTube videos for 2022 and did 61 lives!

That's one video or live every second day!

I've spent $1000's of dollars on the video editing, virtual assistant team - not to mention my time to build it out.

Right now, that entire content production machine is funded by my DCT membership.

With my YouTube channel now being monetized, it means that I can hopefully fund even more content creation and paid advertising to reach people even more.

It also means that if YouTube becomes a full-blown source of income, I can adjust prices, make things cheaper, etc I'm getting paid from a different avenue.

Instead of people paying from their own pocket, they "pay" me indirectly from their views and watch time.

One of my goals with being monetized and having a large audience means that the bigger my audience is the CHEAPER I can make my information products...

There's a whole strategy for this... will leave that to another time... not quite ready to share that yet...

Anyhow - this brings me to the next topic:

I have been working diligently on launching a few "in a day" courses and updating them.

Landing Page in a day - LIVE! ✅

Lead Magnet in a day - LIVE! ✅

Email Sequence in a day - LIVE! ✅

YouTube SEO: How to rank on page 1 instantly ✅

Facebook Organic Mini-Course: How to find clients without paying for advertising ✅

Beginner's Guide to Email Marketing eBook and bonus content ✅

Thank you page in a day - NEXT to do 📝

If you want to take part of these, you can pay $5 for the Landing Page in a Day course (leave a comment on this Facebook post to get the link and coupon code).

Or $19 for any of the other ones...

This is limited time while I'm collecting specific testimonials on each SPECIFIC course.

I already have a ton of testimonials in general, but I want ones specifically on each individual course for the sales page of these.

The full price for these will be anywhere between $27 to $197 once I publish them with a sales page...

So this $19 offer is limited time.

My aim is to finish off the "Thank You Page in a day" course before the weekend, and then I'm setting up all the sales pages for these courses next...

So. Much. Work.

But there was another course that I finished, that isn't a BETA course as I've already done the BETA, and that is...

This SERVICE is now LIVE and aligns perfectly with my new YouTube announcement.

With all the amazing participants who worked with me to get their landing page done, I have now outlined the entire service from A to Z.

Onboarding call with my virtual assistant

Project Management automations on the back-end

Tech call with my virtual assistant

Step-by-step lessons to prepare

And finally, going LIVE with me on YouTube as I build your landing page

And even... a graduation process in place to give you exposure to your newly built landing page.

If you already paid for the challenge, you'll be getting an email in the next 24-48 hours with access to the content.

If you paid and haven't gone live with me, you'll know what to do step by step.

If you paid and did the challenge with me as a beta tester, you'll be able to fill out a form and get your landing page shared on my website!

This brings me to the next point...

The next participant of the Landing Page Challenge is almost ready too, so over the next 7 days, I will be going LIVE on YouTube...

If you want me and my team to build your landing page too... reply to this email to let me know ASAP so I can give you access to the new course area after payment.

Reply to let me know if you want IN.

Also, I'll probably use that live to do a little extended update on what I'm about to share with you now, which is....

You probably know I have a Tech Support Membership, it's VERY hands-on and costs $99/month or $697/year.

This new membership is going to be EXTREMELY AFFORDABLE.

Especially...

During the Founding Member Launch Week.

SAVE THE DATES:

15-22 February 2023.

This is when the doors will be OPEN for this Coaching & Templates Membership and then it will CLOSE and price will never be the same.

The price?

$77/annual

Or

$49/bi-annual

What you will get?

Monthly templates for your website (Systeme mainly, may expand to Zenler and Kajabi)

Monthly templates using Canva for your social media, lead magnets, webinar presentations, with training videos on WHY you need them and how to make use of them

Monthly templates for your email marketing (email swipes for product launch, nurturing sequences, affiliate promotions, and more)

Monthly templates/guides to walk you through step by step doing certain things you may need.

You already see that example with the Landing Page Challenge Checklist...

Imagine a similar checklist/guide for:

And more....

One per month.

No content overwhelm.

Just practical guides, checklists and templates you can actually make use of.

Additionally, I plan on doing ONCE per month a group coaching call to answer your burning questions and give you personalized advice.

This will be streamed publicly on YouTube, and you'll be submitting your questions in advance - if you attend live, great. If not, you'll see a replay and a link to the specific moment in the entire live where your question/challenge was answered.

Again, the price is $77 per year...

Not per month - per YEAR.

Or you can pay bi-annual, (i.e. every 6-months), $49.

There will be other little perks, which I'll go over in more detail in my next live stream and also close to the launch.

One of these perks is going to MASSIVELY encourage you to SHARE this upcoming launch with your business besties...

For the ACTION TAKERS who sign up on the first 48 hours of the cart open, I will do an exclusive behind-the-scenes webinar which will be hosted on Zoom, NOT streamed live on YouTube. Trust me - it's gonna be totally worth it.

So there you go - mark the dates = from 15th to 22nd of February.

And the first 48 hours will include something else special for ACTION TAKERS.

So that's about it for today...

If you read this far, THANK YOU.

Love to hear about YOUR plans for 2023...

Please reply to let me know.
