It’s the end of the Roadmap to $50K.
A few months ago, Sock Doggo quietly crossed the $50,000 mark. 

As I celebrated (in my mind) I started thinking about next steps, and how I could share the key takeaways with you in a format that would help you grow your business.

When I started this project, the outcome I wanted the most was to share what it takes to get your first $50K in sales when you’re a solo entrepreneur.

When you don’t have unlimited time and unlimited funds.

It’s important, because we’re surrounded by a culture that celebrates the big wins, and defines success by sales alone. 

When you’re working by yourself, and your business is growing in baby steps, it’s not hard to feel like you’re failing when you’re measuring your progress against someone’s big win.

I wanted you to see what’s normal for most people. 

I wanted to show you what worked the best to get sales without spending a fortune.

My goal was to give you the information, and leave you with a strategy that you could apply to your business. If you’re working on your first $50K, or your first $500K.

Come listen.

I’ll share the numbers, the cost, and exactly what work resulted in the most sales.

Almost every business owner has some debt they can attribute to their business. If they don’t have debt, they probably remember how they felt when they did.

I still remember how I felt when one of my businesses had a lot of debt. Even though I looked successful on the outside, on the inside I felt like a failure.

Once managing your cash becomes a juggling act, it takes a lot of the fun out of running a business.

Years later, I know that managing my cash and ditching debt is just another problem in our business that we can solve. In fact, you’ve probably solved bigger problems!

Becoming debt free is completely possible for almost every business owner. It just takes a plan.

This week, I invited my good friend Ciara Stockeland, on the podcast to help you get started.
She’s a Profit First Expert AND a former product based business owner! She gets us!

Listen in as she shares how she’s helped her clients ditch their debt, and take back control of their cash. I know you’ll love it.

Once you’re debt free, you’ll feel like you can accomplish almost anything!

PS: In the episode, we talk about Ciara’s upcoming Debt Free Challenge. For only $37, you will spend a week with Ciara, learn how you can implement Profit First, and get your questions answered!

GA-4 is here.
Every day, we’re getting questions from store owners asking what they need to do.

It’s a big deal, so today I’m bringing in our Inner Circle Google Expert, Leona Griffin to give us the facts, and share the steps you need to take to get ready for this big change.

In July 2023, GA-4 will replace your current Google Analytics UA property.

That means that store owners will no longer be able to see their past data or collect current data on their current Google Analytics property.

If we want to continue collecting data, we’ll need to install GA-4 now. And if you’re like me, you’ll want to be able to compare your 2023 results to 2022, so you’ll need to have GA-4 up and running now, so you will have the past year’s history when the switch happens next July.

The problem for us Shopify store owners is that there is currently no one size fits all solution to continue collecting your eCommerce data with this new version of GA.

Listen in as Leona walks us through the steps you can take now so that you’ll be set up to make a smooth transition.

Also, I know that some of you will need a little extra help. We’ve planned a GA-4 Workshop for Inner Circle members, so they can get the support they need to get GA-4 installed and working.

I feel that this is critical, and because of that, I’m opening this Workshop to non members as well.
I know you need this help.
You can attend the workshop and get the replay for only $15.

A few months ago Blue Cobalt shared their genius Branded content strategy in the Inner circle, and when I saw what he had done, I knew it was so good that everyone should have the chance to try this.

A bit of a back story. I met Blue earlier this year when we reviewed their site for 15 Minute Feedback. On the episode we tasked Blue with finding a way to show their amazing creations on real models instead of mannequins.

Like most of us, Blue didn’t have a big budget for a photoshoot, so they got creative.
That creativity paid off in spades!

Listen in and learn how Blue was able to put together an amazing photo shoot at a beautiful location with perfect models for only a few hundred dollars.

It’s incredible! Blue walked away with almost 3,000 images and hours of video content that can be sliced up and used on the website, for reels, video posts, email content, and TikTok.

I know that many store owners struggle to get images and videos that they can use for their brand, and Blue’s strategy will work for most products.

Listen in, I know you’ll be inspired.
