2022 brought some big changes for us Ecommerce store owners, and I think it makes sense to start this year off by sharing what’s been working to grow sales, what’s NOT working, and what’s super exciting for Ecommerce store owners in 2023.

I’ve been working in eCommerce for 12 years, and for more than 6 years, I’ve been sharing what’s really working for people like us – we’re entrepreneurs, we don’t have huge budgets, or huge teams – we’re building our businesses on solid foundations – step by step

 

Here’s something that will inspire you:

More of our Inner Circle members are finding success than ever before.

With every year that goes by, we have more and more members who are reaching beyond 6 and 7 figures, paying themselves well – and even creating wealth in their lives by selling their companies.

 

So today I thought it would be valuable to share what I see from inside the Inner Circle.

  • What our members have struggled with this year
  • The tactics that our members are using to grow their sales
  • What’s emerging as the biggest opportunity for us in 2023

 

Grab a pen, and listen in as I share all the details.

I’ll even give you a simple strategy to get a head start on the big opportunity of 2023.

 

Last thing:

As I look back on how the Inner Circle has grown and changed over the years, I’m incredibly grateful to work with our team of Mentors and Coaches. They are successful Ecommerce store owners who use the strategies we teach. They’re on the front lines doing the work.

We’re in a great position to help even more store owners this year.
I want every one of you to get the help you need, so we are inviting our podcast listeners and email subscribers to join us for the Inner Circle training this month.

We’ve never done this before – but this lesson is super  important.

We’re teaching our members how to create predictable, reliable sales every month of the year.

This is a plan everyone can create, no matter what stage your business is at – because you’re going to use your own data to build it.

 

You can get a seat at the live workshop +  the self study version for just $15.

When you join us, you’ll walk away with your own plan for sales you can count on, AND you’ll be clear on the work you need to do to move the needle.

This week I’m sharing 3 things to do this week.

You might be relaxing this week, but here’s the good news:

This 3 part exercise can be done in your pajamas AND it will make you more likely to have a successful year in 2023.

Here’s what you’re going to do:

  • You’re going to take a snapshot of where you are in business, right now
  • You’re going to think about exactly where you want to be in business a year from now
  • You’re going to identify the “changes”, and put them in order of priority

And as you do this, you’ll be able to see what you should focus on to get the results you want.

This is an exercise I do every year. It helps me get clear on what I really want, and actually, see where I need to focus so that I reach my goals.

Give it a try. It’s simple and fun. You’ll see what’s possible for you!

We’re wrapping up the busiest time of the year.

As I’m recording this our members are posting breakdowns of their Black Friday events – and sharing their results.

And I was reminded of 2 things:

It’s always a numbers game.

Your results are always a product of all the work you do – year round – not just in the fourth quarter.

You have more control over your results than you think. I promise you. But be gentle with yourself, because it takes time to learn how to grow your sales online.

So here’s what I want you to do:

  • I want you to flip your thinking about the value of quick wins vs playing the long game.
  • Let’s go back to basics.

This week, I’m bringing back an episode that I recorded early in the year. It is the most played episode of 2022, and it’s even more relevant today

Over the next few weeks – I will share what’s working now to get more sales- for our members and for me.

Today I’m encouraging you to think strategically about your business.

I’ll tell you how. It’s not so hard!

In this episode Claudia Howard is walking us through a sneaky little tactic that will 2x the number of emails you collect on your site. And you can do it without driving any more traffic.

It’s a Gated Page.

It sounds fancy and technical, but it’s not really.

In the episode, we’re talking about how you can create a full screen pop-up to “gate” a Page or Collection.  One of the easiest Collections to use for this strategy is a “Sale” collection.

Here’s how it works:

When web visitors click on your “Sale” collection from the navigation, any visitors who are not on your email list will see a full Page pop up that tells them this collection is “Reserved for insiders only. In order to see the collection, they need to enter their email address.

Once they submit their email, the pop-up disappears and the collection is reveled.

Here’s why it’s important to you:

First,  you don’t have to offer a discount to get a new lead. The hook is “exclusivity”

But here’s the best part:

These visitors have high purchase intent. It’s not unusual for the submit rates on this pop-up to be double the submit rates on your discount pop-up.

And these new subscribers are Buyers. Claudia sees this list of subscribers convert  at 16% – 25%!!!

It’s a strategy that you can use too.

Grab a pen, and listen to the episode. You’ll get step by step instructions so you can set it up too, and I share ideas that will open your mind to how you can use a Gated page on your site.
