I want to set you up for success by helping your future self. If you can learn to create boundaries, rules and non-negotiables, you will be able to look back on your current self and say, “thank you for doing that”.This does not mean that you have to change, but it does require that your actions and how you show up is different from what you are doing. You have to ask yourself, what’s working, what’s not and what can you outsource. Answering these questions will help you set boundaries for yourself and it will make the processes in your business more streamlined and simplified. So what does this look like for you? I’m sharing with you my boundaries and non-negotiables in hopes to inspire you to set some rules of your own. TAKEAWAYS:People who are not entrepreneurs don’t get an opinion in your business.

It’s not always fun talking about pain points in your marketing, but I want to show you how you can talk about pain points and not feel like a salesy jerk. Your ideal client has a problem they want to solve. And your program or offer can solve that pain point. So you talking about pain points can help a lot of people to understand more about how you can help them. ...when you do it the right way.TAKEAWAYS:Speaking about pain points helps your audience feel understood. Your audience wants to feel seen and heard so when you talk about pain points, you are validating their experience and concerns.You owe it to your audience to tell them what you offer. If you don’t call out these symptoms as a great fit to work with you, how will they ever know you can actually help them?Not all marketing needs to be pain point marketing. Remember that there are 7 types of buyers and pain point marketing only targets one type of buyer. So use the pain point marketing technique, but don’t shift all your marketing. RESOURCES:Visit

Asking your clients questions is a really important part of the client journey. It can sometimes feel like you’re creating in a vacuum. Especially with things like courses, digital products, and even sometimes memberships, you don’t have a ton of interaction with your clients.

We’ve all seen content written by ChatGPT using words like “unleash”, “uplevel”, or “game changer” and it all sounds generic, and robotic, and ridiculously insincere.But I have to tell you that AI assistants, quite honestly, are transforming my business. The reality of the situation is that if I want to grow my business this year, I need more time. And so adding AI tools has helped me spend less time having to learn or do new things. I’m sure you need or want more time too!So in this week's 6-Figure Secrets Podcast episode I'm sharing how I'm using AI and how AI Assistants support my business. TAKEAWAYS:There’s nothing that’s not possible with AI.

Brenna McGowan is launch strategist and copywriter. She believes that hustle-based, high-pressure program launches don’t serve you or your customers. Instead, she teaches a systemized pre-launch process to put leads through so they’re primed, pre-sold, qualified, and raring to buy your offer. By leveraging her pre-launch and Anticipation Marketing™ strategies, Brenna’s clients have tripled — and even quadrupled launch revenue growth — without the frenzy and chaos they used to feel when launching. She also helps her students inside The Pre-Launch Plan Program create strategic pre-launch plans that’ve raked in hundreds of thousands in revenue. When Brenna’s not strategizing or helping clients launch, you can find her walking in her Northern California neighborhood, continuing her endless search for the perfect white t-shirt, reading cheesy romance books, or coming to terms with soon becoming an empty-nester. TAKEAWAYS:Breanna shares with us her 4 A's for a successful pre-launch.

As I was prepping for this episode, I was looking at what trends I saw this past year that were getting my clients results. What were they saying and doing? How many emails were they sending? What was their email structure?So in this episode, I'm predicting 5 email marketing trends for 2025, based on what I saw in 2024.TAKEAWAYS:Entrepreneurs will start to move off of social media and rely on more sustainable platforms, like email.
