Create products like an expert-preneur
There are so many ways that we can serve our community. I’m a fan of the one-to-many model as well … when I transitioned from one-to-one … to one-to-many, that was when my revenue started accelerating and my impact really grew.
Melanie Benson
Do you focus on the one-to-one model for providing products and services?
For almost all therapists, this is the standard business model because you are the direct source of the service.
Melanie’s trifecta of product success and growth
However, if you want to build revenue and impact, consider switching – in some capacity – to a one-to-many model. Create and sell e-courses, resources, and groups that allow you to expand your reach while saving time, and earning more income!
Work with Melanie’s trifecta: find the intersection between your superpower, what your clients are yearning or searching for, and what they are willing to invest in.
Here’s the tricky thing … just because they say, “I want this” doesn’t mean [that] when you build it and put it out there that they’re going to buy it. This is where positioning, messaging, packaging, and pricing really come in.
Melanie Benson
Tips for growing your audience
1 – Start with why: why do you want to talk about what it is that you’re discussing? What about the work that you do specifically resonates with you?
2 – How to land on a podcast:
- Catch the attention of the podcast host with a magnetic pitch
- Share your episodes on social media
The fastest way to get on a podcast is [to] look at where your peers, competition, and colleagues are being featured and do a little research to see if that podcast [feels] aligned with [you], [your] message, audience, and [then] pitch [to] them.
Melanie Benson
- If you have a podcast, do podcast episode swops with other hosts!
3 – Don’t ramble through your content. When you share your message, you are bonding with your audience, not just relaying the same information.
Create a guest system
- Be clear on your main talking points
- Have a list of sample questions ready for the host to ask you
- Get a great photo of yourself on hand for the podcast materials
- Your call to action needs to fit together
- Adjust your pitch to your host and follow their process
