I agree with what you're saying. You also emphasized the importance of doing sales calls, which is getting in front of your clients to understand them better. While a sales call might not be the most efficient conversion event, it can offer valuable insights to better articulate and connect with your audience on any platform.

Here’s my theory: If you’re not selling super very custom services (where calls are necessary) and you aren’t selling high ticket services, you can list your prices. But as someone selling high ticket B2B services, I’d absolutely love listing our $10k+ per month prices on our site, but don’t think it would work.

Consider this process as a cycle: growing your email list through methods like landing pages can make your advertising more cost-effective. Additionally, publishing core content supports your social media following. These elements work together-social reach, content reach, and email list size. While one might argue that the email list is the most crucial aspect, as it can amplify all other marketing efforts, it's essential to generate traffic to build that list, which often comes from social media. I recommend dedicating an hour to each of the following tasks: Drive traffic and grow your email list. Create compelling email offers. Develop a sales page that clearly showcases the results your clients can achieve, the products you sell, and how they can obtain those results or products.

Good video. I've just tested an idea for about 6 months and hit 10k USD revenue. I would say it's proof of concept. My issue now is that I don't have the money for Inventory AND marketing. The profits doesnt come throught untill about 3-4 months as it's a subscription product. But after that time it's profitable with about 30% margin. Nothing is optimized and ads are poor. But i know it can work, but again money issues. How the hell do i deal with this?

Disagree with some of this. Firstly with the dog trainer, you knew what you were looking for so he didn’t need to offer a call. Also you say about ‘yes or no’ decisions being made on emails, this is exactly why you should hook them in on a call, that’s actual sales. If you see an email as a customer, you’ll look at the price and already make a decision, and this is even harder if you’re not looking for the product in the first place. There’s no value built in an email. The kicker is, you’re actually paying more as a customer if you just go with what’s on the email as you can’t negotiate price! Funnily enough a company I work for sold you a product by cold emailing and then getting your team on a call lol. You would of deleted the email if it just gave you the info point blank
