And a lot of times, especially in the digital world, we think so much like ads and traffic and yes, but some of our very best clients come in through referral, grassroots.”10:17 “I think there's something to finding the ‘you' size gap in the market and going to fill it and I think people told me, and called it out on me. It's like, I can't give myself all the credit at all for it”13:58 “I believe in onboarding really well and off-boarding really well, that's so important to me, a lot of times, you'll finish a project, if you've been a client before, and you're like, Wait, that's kind of awkward, but I don't know if we're done or not. And so just like those little touch points along the way”19:31 “There are so many books, there are so many podcasts, there are so many influencers I want to learn from…Somebody told me every year pick two people and then learn and implement what they do and see what changes for me.”---Connect with Allison:⭐ Connect on Instagram @allisonwalsh⭐ JOIN THE SOCIETY: www.shebelievedsociety.com (use code 2022 to access the Society for $22/month)⭐ JOIN OUR FREE COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/shebelievedshecouldcommunity⭐ Check out recommendations from the show here⭐ Learn how to go from Overcommitted to Unstoppable here 

Everyone responsible for marketing wants their company not to be forgotten. From an initial purchase to referrals being remembered is important.The internet is so busy and it's only getting busier, how do you become memorable?This episode will give you one key aspect on how to not be forgotten. We bring in Justin Blackman to talk to us about your company's voice and how you say things affect consumers' purchasing behavior.Justin dives deeper into brand voice than anyone ever should. He finds the quirks between the commas to establish new rules for writers, and teaches content teams how to add consistency to their content. He uses a process called Brand Ventriloquism to match any brand's writing style, and has written for more than 429 different clients. He has created voice guides for industry experts including Amy Porterfield, Stu McLaren, Bobby Klinck, Hayley Hobson, Melyssa Griffin, and several Saas sites you've never heard of.

We're revisiting some of our most popular and helpful podcasts from the last year. For this week, we are replaying episode 69. There is so much about running an online business that you just have to figure out as you go along. One of those things is learning how to protect your business from a legal standpoint. Like with finance and taxes, you can only get so far managing this aspect of your business without having to go and get a new degree. Unless you already have one, I don't think most business owners are rushing out to apply for law school just to write a privacy policy for their website. That's why for today's episode, we're sharing an interview Corey (my business partner) and I did with legal expert Autumn Witt Boyd. Autumn has extensive experience working directly with online businesses (the likes of Amy Porterfield and Melyssa Griffin), which is a rare niche for a lawyer to dive into. In this episode, Autumn and I discuss: The role a lawyer should play in your online business The top legal vulnerabilities you need to be aware of as an online business owner Some of the legal pitfalls Autumn has seen entrepreneurs make Why it's so important that your lawyer understands your business model The first areas of your business to address from a legal perspective And so much more!

Elizabeth invites her own business + mindset coach, Melyssa Griffin, onto the podcast to share about the transformation that has come with investing in herself, finding support, and learning to build a business in alignment with who she is created to be. Melyssa shares how her personal journey of experiencing burnout caused her to pivot in her business, and how she now operates from a place of flow as she lives out her truth. Together, they discuss how abundance comes from alignment and how business can grow with ease if you abandon the prescriptive systems you were taught and lean into doing things your own way. Elizabeth shares how joining her mastermind was a truly life changing experience, both professionally and personally. Join us for this episode on abandoning scarcity, pursuing abundance through inner healing, and learning to craft your dream life. Melyssa Griffin is a former school teacher turned entrepreneur who believes that the best way to grow a thriving business is to heal the leader behind the scenes.

You may have heard the saying that "Your results are an exact mirror of your thoughts." It's true! In fact, roughly 95% of your choices and habits are driven entirely by your subconscious mind. What that means is that our unconscious mind is largely calling the shots, and if you're not liking the results you're seeing in some area of your life, it's likely because your subconscious beliefs and identities are not in alignment with the results you'd like to have. So...how can you befriend your subconscious mind and create better and more aligned results in your life? That's exactly what this episode is all about! I'm joined by Master Coach, Reese Evans, who is experienced in a variety of techniques -- like Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), hypnotherapy, and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) -- to aid clients in reprogramming their subconscious beliefs.  This episode is JAM packed with helpful and actionable information to aid you in creating the kind of life you desire. I have to say...it's one of my favorite interviews to date! Reese and I talk about... What Reese’s path to coaching has looked like, and how she realized she could integrate all the parts of her life and still be successful [0:58] How the subconscious mind differs from the conscious mind [9:58] The way that our early experiences in life can lead to lifelong patterns [14:07] How hypnosis, EFT and manifestation can be used as tools in our daily lives [17:32] Why expressing our emotions is good for us in so many different ways [37:59] Her thoughts on “rules” to live by and what to do to become aware of and shift them, if necessary [46:07] A different approach to goal setting and where most people are often going wrong with it [58:19] Some common productivity myths that just aren’t true [63:41] One big lesson (of many) that Reese’s newborn son has taught her [69:24]   Links from the Episode: Reese's Company: http://yessupply.co/ Yes Supply's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yessupply/ Yes Supply on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/watchmereese Follow me (Melyssa Griffin) on Instagram for honest conversations about alignment, abundance, and my life.

I think we’ve got something twisted when it comes to self love. Self love isn’t face masks or shopping sprees (though it can be!). It’s much, much deeper than that. Self love is… ...Communicating and upholding your boundaries with the people in your life (yes, even if it means they’ll be upset with you or leave). ...Being honest about your needs, both with others and with yourself. ...Gaining awareness around your fears and limiting beliefs so that you can do the work to heal. ...Following your aligned path, even if people judge you or don’t understand. Self love is a lot less about face masks and a lot more about removing the masks you wear that hide your true essence.  So how do you go about creating self awareness so that you can embody self love? What practices will help bring you back to your center so you can live life from a place of alignment and wholeness? This is just what my friend, Koya Webb, and I are discussing on this episode of Limitless Life™. Koya is an internationally recognized yoga teacher, celebrity holistic health coach, author, speaker, and vegan activist whose core mission is to promote daily self-care, oneness and eco friendly living to combat some of the some of the world’s biggest challenges including mental health, social injustices and global warming. In this episode, Koya shares how… Self-love isn’t a destination; it’s a journey on which you need to be gentle with yourself and acknowledge it takes practice Fear is feedback that when used to tune into what we need, it shifts our energy back to love Freedom is found when we show up and love without expectation When you come from a place of wholeness, you can give so much more fully to every relationship Specific ways you can find daily self-love within yourself  It might feel easy to go through each day and use distractions to cover up or bury how we feel. But if you take time to ask yourself what you really need, you can start to come home to yourself, and use that inner love to create lasting change and love in the world around you. Bottom line: love is the root of who we are and why we’re here.  It’s the energy that weaves us all together, so we’ve got to start giving it the attention it deserves.  Read the show notes: https://www.melyssagriffin.com/embody-self-love/ Koya's Website Koya's Instagram Koya's Facebook Get Loved Up on Instagram Get Loved Up on Facebook Koya’s Book, Let Your Fears Make You Fierce: How to Turn Common Obstacles into Seeds for Growth A Course in Miracles A Course in Miracles Made Easy: Mastering the Journey from Fear to Love by Alan Cohen  A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of "A Course in Miracles" by Marianne Williamson Follow me (Melyssa Griffin) on Instagram for honest conversations about alignment, abundance, and my life.

Today's episode is with someone I've been following and learning from for years. Her name is Melyssa Griffin. She's a former school-teacher turned entrepreneur, Melyssa leads a community of over 300,000 entrepreneurs and 25,000 students in her paid courses and mastermind program, where she helps conscious leaders create profitable, purpose-driven companies, as well as heal from the old mental programming and thought patterns that keep them from feeling aligned, whole, and fulfilled. I had the huge privilege of meeting Melyssa when I joined her Bold Abundance Mastermind this year. And let me tell you, she is as warm and vibrant in person (well, zoom) as she is in her videos and social media. She's been such an incredible guide in holding space for us to grow, expand and heal. And let me tell you, this podcast wouldn't be here right now if it weren't for her and everyone in the mastermind. You are in for a treat! In today's episode Melyssa shares: About her burnout and what she did during her 6 months sabbatical. On re-aligning her business to herself. Practicing inner connection so you don't get lost in the noise. Experimentation, taking the time to see what works and letting go of any attachment. Walking away from something "successful" because it wasn't aligned. On creating connected, honest, vulnerable communities where people can thrive. Money mindset and self worth. And so much more. I highlighted almost the entire episode as I was skimming through the transcript. This call was so nourishing for me, I am grateful I get to share Melyssa's wisdom with you all. Let's dive in!

I've made a lot of Pinterest Pins lately. This has all been to help expand and increase my online exposure with people who want to support my work. That's how successful businesses work, when you get down to it. Good exposure equals a larger audience.Why have I been doing all this grueling work? Why make that many images? Thanks to the wonderful Pinfinite Growth course, I understand how to play the Pinterest game better now. Melyssa Griffin has really hit on something here. She's doing great work. I heartily recommend this course for anyone who wants to grow their audience.There's also a brand spankin' new blog post waiting for you. It's called, Why It's Okay To Just Be Okay.We'll probably never be that famous person with the cool, easy life. You know, the sort that we see in magazines.

I waited until Monday to release this episode for two reasons…. I think it’s the perfect way to get you motivated to build your personal brand for the rest of your week! And two, in the last episode on affiliate marketing I shared with you I would be participating in my 1st affiliate launch and I teased the details I could, but I just wanted to get to BIG REVEAL before we jump into the episode–so here it is! Introducing... The Business Bundle!  75+ courses & programs from the A-List in online business education for only $100?!?! (and that’s total… not per course).   Including "The Clarity Course" by yours truly, as well as courses by Jenna Kutcher, Carrie Green, Amanda Bucci, Melyssa Griffin, Scott Olford, & many more! Covering the need-to-know topics to help you start, grow, and scale your business online, including social media content and platforms, marketing, mindset, productivity, finance, and so much more! Over $20,000+ in value!!!!  This is a 99% Discount on the prices of all the courses included! ALL for less than the price you’d pay for just ONE of the courses on its own! The Business Bundle is just such an insane value  -  this price point is already a 60% discount on “The Clarity Course” alone  -  if you get value out of even one course, your investment pays for itself.  Again, to check out all the courses and details on my bonus, head to  brittanykrystle.com/bundle.  “What’s the catch?” There isn’t one, but it is only available for a LIMITED-TIME.  If you’ve been looking for the right investment into your brand and business, but haven’t been exactly sure where to start, this is for you.  >> And as if that wasn’t already an amazing deal, I want to sweeten the pot even more and throw in an additional exclusive bonus (yes, on top of everything that’s already included). If  you want all the details about the bundle and my bonus if you buy from my link, head to  brittanykrystle.com/bundle.  Tell me more about the bundle! And now for this episode, in the spirit of The Business Bundle, I have a special “Best-Of” episode for you that pulls together highlights of the top personal branding advice from past Beyond Influential episodes. There have been so many great interviews and episodes full of brand-building gems, but I know there are some pieces of advice you may have missed or that will really hit home for you the second time around and I wanted to make this easy for you to hear some of the most actionable and educational tips in one jam-packed session! On Ep. 125, you’ll hear all the best whats, whys, and hows of personal branding: What a personal brand is and why you need to build yours My philosophy on personal branding: how to start, develop, and grow your personal brand online Personal branding mindset: How to handle imposter syndrome & common excuses Best practices for content creation, consistency, and engagement (especially if you’re busy!) The content you should be consuming, and more! Don't want to miss an episode (or valuable free resources!)? Click here. Helpful Links: Learn more about the Business Bundle!

Today we're chatting about: Fun, creative and mostly free promotions online business owners are running for their communities right now. (Tomorrow we'll talk about what special things you can do)For a full list including activities for kids & teens, homeschooling along with a couple of other business finds  I've created a Facebook Post with even more free & low cost resources. Feel free to add your own in the comments. PODCASTS:   Inbox Besties Podcast - (Me) - Special Series 8-10 minute Daily Episodes - I'm doing this at least until April 4th to offer you some light, fun actionable business advice and also A LOT of candid behind-the-scenes moments of what’s going on in real time.  It’s my hope to give you a sense of stability, inspiration and escape during these next couple of uncertain weeks. Listen on Apple Podcast | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Play   The Hirsh Marketing Underground Podcast - Special Edition Podcast Series will have daily episodes to support your biggest marketing + business strategy decisions, starting now until all of your questions are answered* *Source: Hirshmarketing.com     LIVE STREAMS   Gretchen Rubin (author of the Happiness Project + the 4 Tendencies) & her sister hollywood writer Liz Kraft: Coping with COVID-19 Conversations [Instagram Lives - Monday-Friday]  Join them at 4pm EST / 1 pm PST for live conversations, ideas, tips, and strategies for coping with COVID-19.  They will be live on Instagram Monday-Friday to chat with their #HappierPodcast community.*   *Source: Gretchen Rubin   Pat Flynn - Daily YouTube Live Streams at 8 am PST - here’s what Pat had to say: "I’ve been broadcasting live on YouTube at 8:00 am Pacific the last few days, and I’ll continue to do so, every day, for as long as we are all self-quarantined and need connection.  I’m there to answer questions, be there for support, and hopefully add some entertainment and fun during this time. It’s family friendly (although I can’t control the chat, just FYI!)   $0 & Heavily Discounted Courses, Ebooks, Coaching & Co-Working events While I know a lot of us online entrepreneurs still do need to make a living since we are at the forefront of what's going to be a thriving economy.  It’s still fun to surprise and reward our audience with extra bonus treats while things are crazy.   There’s a couple of creators who decided to go the discounting route:   Ditch The Ish - Propel Your List & Get Rich Audio Sales & Copywriting Course [Pay What You Feel] by Me -  I love this little yet dangerously impactful course.  If you feel like you need a little more of a butt kicking (and a simple sales page template) along with list building strategies, this audio bootcamp is what you need to get you out of your head, do the scary stuff and see results.  Click here to pay whatever you want for it.   The Affiliate Program Toolkit - Pay what you can - $47 Minimum (Normally $497) by Zoe Linda Zoe is the queen of showing online business owners how to create, design and manage affiliate programs for their own products.  With swipe files, video lessons and detailed guides - Zoe will get your affiliate program up, running and profitable. I can tell you I’ve done the WORST job of supporting my affiliates so when I saw this crazy deal come through I scooped it up FAST.   All the rest of her products are "pay what you can" too including the Referral Toolkit For Service Providers ($27 dollar minimum normally $147),  Black Friday Affiliate Booster Pack ($9 minimum normally $47)   Brit & Co - All programs FREE (normally $29 - $97)  Use the Code SELFCARE. This is one of the most generous deals I've seen.  Brit & Co have a variety of courses, from several different creators, featuring everything from  productivity, to hand lettering, drawing, to small business finance and even cake decorating.   Just make sure that you use the category selector at the top because "all classes" barely shows you a quarter of what they offer.   Personally, I used this more as a buy one, get one deal - since you can use the code SELFCARE an unlimited number of times over the next couple of days. I wanted to support a business that is really showing up in a big way for people who have lost their jobs or don't know where their next clients are coming from.  But you can turn it into an all free, buy 1 get 3, 4, 5, 10+ deal. It’s all up to you.   They have alot of ads running on their site right now. So I'm sure they're monetizing their traffic well.   Amazon Success Class ($1) Andrea Thomas   If you’ve been thinking about selling products on Amazon but you're not sure where to start this special live masterclass by Andrea Thomas is for you. Not only will she tell you where to find products you can easily sell on Amazon but if you click over the sales page she has an AMAZING free class (no opt-in required) you can watch right now.  And if you like her style you can "upgrade" (it cost a cool 5 dollars) to get access to her other lives trainings including:   Smart from Scratch® - How to Find a Winning Business Idea & Land Your First Customer FREE (normally $247) - Pat Flynn Smart Passive Income. For a limited amount of time Pat Flynn is offering his full fledged beginner’s course on how to start a business completely for free.  Smart From Scratch® is a hands-on, comprehensive course that enables you to develop a business idea, validate it, and determine if that idea is viable to pursue.  Learn how to test whether or not there's an audience for your business idea.*   *Source: Smart From Scratch Sales Page   MISCELLANEOUS:     Loom - Removes all video recording limits for all free accounts until June and slashing Pro-Rate by half Like I needed another reason to love Loom.  This Google Chrome extension allows you to create, store and send screen recordings & face only videos with ease.  I LOVE replying to emails and questions in my Facebook group with Loom. It's so fast. No typos. And it creates a stronger connection with my audience because they know it’s actually me replying.     Reach Summit 2020 - Hosted by Teachable While technically a Virtual Summit I thought the uniqueness of the way that they are arranged in speakers warranted me actually telling you about it.   From March 24th - 26th Teachable is hosting themed-day workshops: Day 1 - Is for Content Creators Day 2 - Is for Freelancers Day 3 - Is for Coaches & Tutors   Some speakers include - Roberto Blake, Kara Stevens and Melyssa Griffin.   The Creator Fund ConvertKit has established a now $150,000 fund to help creators in need during the COVID-19 pandemic. In one of 4 areas -   Medical — medical expenses related to COVID-19. These might be prescriptions you need to fill, testing based on symptoms, care for illness, etc   Groceries — normal groceries or reasonable supplies to prepare for quarantine. If you are struggling with tradeoffs between providing your family nourishment versus covering other essential expenses, you qualify.   Childcare — babysitters or other childcare needs due to your schools being canceled or keeping them home out of safety concerns. If you have increased childcare costs, you qualify.   Rent or mortgage — having a safe home environment in times like these is perhaps more important than anything. If you’re struggling to pay your rent or mortgage, you qualify.   You will need to show proof of your expense and validity of your business. Please note they're already received over 6000 applicants so they might not be able to help everyone but if you are in it is still worth a shot to put something in.   So I hope these resources help you pass the time and get inspired.   Got a questions or concerns you want to me tackle during this special series?

    Have you ever heard the saying, “If you argue for your limitations, they're yours to keep”? This holds true in all things- for scarcity, for our unhappiness in our lives, for our lack of self-love. In today's Focus Friday, I ask the very simple question: What are you fighting for? In hopes that it will ignite a spark in you that helps shine the light on the fact that you are worthy of so much more than you have fought for… That at any moment, should you choose to do so, you can stop the fight and simply step in to the fullness + magnitude of who you truly are. In This Episode: The incredible In(Her) Circle retreat speakers: Melyssa Griffin, Julie Solomon, Chris Harder + Lewis Howes [ :45 ] Why I'm on a plane headed back to LA [ 4:20 ] What are you fighting for? [ 5:58 ] How to shift our belief in ourselves [ 9:25 ] Soul Shifting Quotes: “If I believe that we live in an abundant Universe, living in a place of scarcity is contradictory.” “I'm not going to fight with you about whether you're worthy or you're not- I just hold that belief consistently.” “We are all born worthy. We all come in to this life with the invitation to be loved by others simply because of our being.” “Your worth is presupposed; it has never been a question.” Links Mentioned: Join the December Masterclass: Goal Mapping in to 2019 Grab your FREE training, How to Call in Your Tribe + Create Content that Converts Tag me in your big shifts + takeaways: @amberlilyestrom Did you hear something you loved here today?!

Do you feel stuck in your business? Maybe you’re hitting all your goals, but you aren’t feeling fulfilled? Well, today’s interview may help. On this episode of the IHML Show, we’re talking with the incredible Melyssa Griffin. Melyssa is a business and mindset coach with a community of over 200,000 business owners and self-development fans. But Melyssa wasn’t always an entrepreneur, and her journey into the business world had quite an interesting start.  After college, Melyssa worked as an English teacher in Japan, but she didn’t feel like it was her purpose. Needing something to look forward to after her long work days, Melyssa began a blog. Her following grew quickly and within six months, she started a graphic design studio, which soon became her full-time business. After running her design studio for a few years, Melyssa began to create and sell online programs. But even after her business hit the 7-figure mark, Melyssa still wasn’t feeling happy or fulfilled. Why? She had spent years focusing on external goals, instead of important inner goals. This wake-up call led her to prioritize herself, her fulfillment and her impact over revenue goals, followers and sales. After today’s interview, you’ll be inspired to move in the direction of what feels good to you, because Melyssa teaches us that you can reach your business goals while still feeling happy and fulfilled.  Melyssa also hosts the top-rated “Pursuit With Purpose” podcast, which covers topics like mindset, relationships, and business in order to help her community reach their full potential in all areas of their lives. Past guests include Deepak Chopra, Marie Forleo, and Mark Manson.

We've all heard of those people who launch online businesses and make a million dollars, and yet it all still seems a bit unbelievable. Almost on accident, Melyssa Griffin transformed her once website design job into a multi-million dollar online business teaching others how to transform their own business...but at the end of the day, she felt a bit purposeless. Something I think we all can relate to, no matter our career. On This Podcast Episode:If you're thinking this whole making money online thing is not realistic, then you need to meet Melyssa. She's not only incredibly successful at her own business, but she spends her day helping others find their own Pursuit With Purpose (that's even the name of her podcast). However, the money lessons that Melyssa has learned along the way might shock you (and you need to hear no matter what your career is).

Are you trying to use Pinterest for business? Do you need some tips and strategies to get started? If you've ever been on Pinterest, you know that it is an amazing resource for finding delicious recipes, cool landscaping ideas and fun activities to keep your kids occupied. But you can also use Pinterest for business. I follow some amazing bloggers like Melyssa Griffin and Peg Fitzpatrick who use Pinterest to grow their community and gain much more awareness of their blog posts. These are huge account and they have thousands of followers, so while I didn't expect overnight Pinterest traffic, I do see the potential in using Pinterest to grow my website traffic to my blog posts. When I checked my analytics, I noticed that I was getting little to no traffic from Pinterest. Here are some of the ways I helped optimize my Pinterest account and increase my website traffic from Pinterest.

On today’s episode of The Art of Paid Traffic, I’m pumped to be joined by Facebook ads manager Andrew Hubbard. Andrew is one of my original students and now runs Facebook ads for some very successful online entrepreneurs. One such client is my guest from last week’s episode, Melyssa Griffin, who shared how she’s created a 7-Figure Automated Webinar Funnel in 18 Months. If you haven’t yet heard that episode, definitely check it out here. You don’t have to listen to it before today’s episode, but it will definitely give you some context for my conversation with Andrew today. We dive into how Andrew left his corporate job to start his Facebook ads business, what he initially charged (and how his pricing has evolved over the past couple of years) and how he niched down to find his ideal client to work with. Then we dive into the specifics of how he runs the Facebook ads for Melyssa Griffin’s 7-figure automated webinar funnel. In the episode, you’ll learn: The technique Andrew used to land his first big clients What mindset he always uses when determining his pricing What types of images work the best for Andrew’s campaigns for Melyssa Why he started with warm traffic for Melyssa Griffin’s campaigns, and the testing process that was used Why Andrew is putting so much focus on video ads, and we talk about what  types of videos are working best for him, including what’s being said in those videos Two challenges Andrew faced when scaling the ad spend How he uses Conversion window to test and scale (you know, when Conversions is your Objective you can choose whether you want to optimize for like 1-day click or 7-day click…) We dive into Andrew’s split testing strategy A comparison on how mobile, desktop and Instagram ads are performing against each other for Melyssa Griffin’s campaigns And a whole lot more... It’s been really cool to see Andrew’s evolution as a Facebook ads manager, from taking my FB Ads For Newbies course years ago to where he is now. Next week, Deacon Hayes of Well Kept Wallet visits the show to share how he’s using Facebook ads to amplify his content and generate affiliate income -- including one recent campaign where he spent $8,500 and did $21,000 in revenue.

Super pumped to welcome my friend Melyssa Griffin to the podcast today, where we’re talking all about how she’s created a 7-figure automated webinar funnel in just 18 months. Melyssa is a super-successful entrepreneur who’s teaching others how to grow their audience and monetize their passions, but she’s a lot more than that... I can honestly say after getting to know her that she’s one of the nicest and most genuine people out there. Today she takes us behind-the-scenes of her automated funnel including how it’s become the foundation for the rest of her business, giving her freedom to launch other projects she’s passionate about like a membership site and new podcast. You’ll hear the mistakes she made with her first automated webinar, how she figured out why it wasn’t working and the adjustments she made to correct them. She also discusses the different offers she makes on her webinars versus the ones that are always available for purchase on her website… On the Show Today You’ll Also Learn: How Melyssa started her business “accidentally” – feeling like she got sucked into the possibilities available in the online world The ways she initially drove people to her blog, and the role SEO played What she considers to be the true turning point in her business Why Melyssa thinks her strategy worked so well for her - while many people are trying something similar and not getting these type of results How she Differentiates the offers that she makes on her webinar vs the offer that is always available How much revenue monthly Melyssa is generating from her FB ads, and what she’s spending on ads to achieve this What she covers in her funnel emails How long her webinar funnel is (considering how crazy successful she has been, this may surprise you) And a whole lot more… Coming up in next week’s episode, Andrew Hubbard, who runs Melyssa’s Facebook ad campaigns, will be joining me to dive into how he’s getting such good results with this automated webinar funnel.

Subscribe to Earn Your Happy on iTunes. Four years ago, teaching English in Japan, Melyssa Griffin decided to start a blog to connect with more people. She soon realized, however, that this blog was becoming less of a hobby and more of something she felt called to monetize and turn into a career. She left teaching and decided to offer web design services. After a couple of years, she had created a profitable business, but she still felt a touch restless… she still felt the pull to teach and do more with MORE people. Melyssa decided to return to teaching, but this time in a different realm. She now teaches online workshops and courses to those who want to start their own business. And one of the things she’s most passionate about is managing the online communities that go along with them. Community has always been an important and intriguing part of Melyssa’s life and I love that she had the opportunity to compare Japanese culture/community with American culture. While she found that Japanese culture, in general, tended to be more reserved (opinions and personalities) there was still a sense of community. It was a concept that wasn’t questioned – it just was. Originally from California, Melyssa found that while the culture varied (more outgoing, more flexibility), there was one universal truth. It became clear one day as she watched a Japanese man and his child play in the park. She noticed that even though she couldn’t understand what they were saying, she could still understand the “conversation” through their body language, intonation and facial expressions. It was a deeper human connection that we ALL have. “We all have this intimate connection that we all have to each other that has nothing to do with the languages we speak.” With a focus on this connection and sense of community, Melyssa went on to open and close several businesses – a greeting card shop, a web design shop and blogging. While one could have felt a sense of failure around the ups and downs of these businesses, it was through this process that Melyssa made a huge realization. “Maybe the fun of it is knowing that it will change in the future and that means you’re still growing and learning new things.” I couldn’t agree more, and I full-heartedly believe that if you’re not changing, you’re not growing – even if that means failing full force along the way. After all, when things are uncertain you might as well explore new things, am I right? Similarly, Melyssa encourages hopeful entrepreneurs to do the same. “Move in the direction of what feels good. Don’t overanalyze it. Don’t try to calculate it. If something stops feeling good and you know that something is going to feel better, do that and start moving in that direction.” Melyssa hasn’t always had such a great relationship with failure. Like many, she was raised to believe that she needed to be successful and wealthy. And admittedly, those are ALL great things, but it also implied that failure wasn’t an option. Today, she’s undone most of these beliefs, but she often has to consciously spin the negatives into a positive light. “Failure is either going to lead you in a direction to something you will enjoy or that will turn out well, or you’re going to learn something massive from that failure and that will lead to something else that’s going to be that next step for you.” So this is all good and great, but now you may be wondering how you actually even begin to turn your passion into a career you love? For many, there’s the common excuse of not having enough time. While both Melyssa and I agree that this is often the case, we also know that there are tiny spaces of time and small sacrifices you can make to just start. Melyssa suggests to start super small, but get super clear on how and who you want to serve. From there, begin by sharing your knowledge for free. This can lead to collaborations with other entrepreneurs – and you’ll be getting your stuff out there! More tips on getting your business out there Get on Pinterest. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not a social media platform. It’s a search engine for a whole lot more than DIY projects. Do video in some form – podcasts, IG stories. This provides a way to deeper connect with your audience on a personal level. Webinars. Once thought of as more of a “fancy” sales pitch with little value, Melyssa advises to make it valuable. Offer 30-40 minutes of quality training and THEN offer to expand on the training with your product. If you’re looking to grow your audience (and email lists) and make sales – this is a two-for-one deal. “The more you can have your audience know you, the more you’re able to grow your business and affect people.” One tip from Melyssa… Don’t get bogged down with the thought that it’s all been done before. Yes, it probably has, but not by YOU! When people follow you, they’ll LOVE all facets of who you are. And they’ll love your story and where you’re coming from. “We need more voices because we need people who can deeply connect to each type of person out there.” Of course, you’ll always have those that don’t resonate with you, but guess what? It’s OK! They’ll just find someone else who does, and you will allow room for another to follow you. But what if you get someone who just can’t keep their thoughts or dislike for your message to themselves? Although difficult and sometimes hurtful, Melyssa suggests taking a day to process what’s been said if you need to while keeping the following thought in mind: “Happy, secure people don’t go out of their way to hurt other people.” With this in mind, assume that all people are good. That way when you’re ready, you can respond in the most loving way possible without judgment or anger. I love that Melyssa stresses the importance of coming from a place of love and community in all that you do. If your intent is to create a business that can grow, be sure to focus on Melyssa’s three Cs – Connection, Content and Collaboration. Focus on who you can serve and what valuable content you can provide and the community will follow. -- Melyssa Griffin teaches online courses and live workshops for entrepreneurs and bloggers who want to turn their after-work hobbies into full-time businesses.

Today I’m interviewing the incredible Melyssa Griffin, who is an absolute genius when it comes to Pinterest! She’s going to be sharing tips and tricks for using Pinterest to boost traffic to your website and to help you be seen by your ideal clients. We use the techniques she talks about in my business, and it has taken us from ZERO referrals from Pinterest to it being the #1 way people are landing on our webpage. As always, we have a freebie waiting for you at www.GoalDiggerPodcast.com to help you navigate the waters of Pinterest!   

I am so excited (like geeking-out excited) for you to hear my conversation with Melyssa Griffin. She truly exemplifies the meaning of true entrepreneurship and giving, and I can’t wait for you listen. (This podcast is a must for anyone who has a passion and wants to make a living by doing just that.) For those who may not know, Melyssa is a rockstar at teaching online courses and live workshops for entrepreneurs and bloggers who want to turn their after-work hobbies into full-time businesses. A few of her specialties include list-building, webinars, using Pinterest to get organic traffic, and content marketing. She also leads an active Facebook group of 60,000 members and helps almost 150,000 entrepreneurs with her weekly emails. Early on, Melyssa actually had nothing to do with the blogging/online world. After college, she started out as an English teacher in Japan, but after some time just never felt like it was her true purpose, so she started to pursue more creative avenues. She wasn’t looking to start a business, she just really wanted to build an online community/blog that could help people become their best selves and be more creative. Well, once her blogging began, it spiraled into so many different areas. Melyssa opened a small web studio and focused her blogging on her experiences with growing her business. And wouldn’t you know, people were really interested in what she learned and what she had to say. It was during this time that Melyssa discovered that while she enjoyed the creative work she was doing and learning new things each day, she actually was having more fun (and fulfilling her purpose more) by teaching others what she was learning along the way and helping them find the freedom in their lives like she did. And so began helping as many people as possible, “Monetize their passion.” Ok, ok, easier said than done… Or is it? I know for many, this seems like a long shot. Can your passion really make you money? You’d be surprised. Melyssa’s clients range from yoga teaching to art lessons with a unique type of marker (seriously). “People don’t realize that there are all these sub-niches out there with people who are willing to spend money to learn what you already have in your head.” But you have to be willing to put in the work and put the information out there. Time is always a factor, but in this day in age, it’s easier than ever. Melyssa estimates that in 90 days and for less than $500, you can create a profitable business. Clearly, it won’t happen overnight, but you don’t need a HUGE audience. You just need to focus and be willing to forego a leisure activity or two. You can make it happen. “The time often exists if we make space for it. It’s just a matter of are we willing to make that sacrifice in the vision of something bigger that’s out there for our lives.” Melyssa goes on to talk about her fears and practices to help break through them. She also shares with us her money mindset struggle and why she feels it’s so important to be transparent and real when it comes to sharing her experiences (she shares her income and expenses on a monthly basis on her website).  Melyssa is truly an entrepreneur who just keeps giving and giving…and giving. Whether it’s the Pinterest knowledge she drops on this podcast, a free workshop/online course or helping to raise money for Pencils of Promise, it’s so obvious that everything she does has others in mind. Money is great, but at the end of the day, it’s about caring for people and finding a way to help each other. After all, Melyssa truly believes and practices what she says, “The biggest thing you can give is your heart."  And I couldn’t agree more.

Find Melyssa of The Nectar Collective here: Website & Courses // Facebook // Twitter // Instagram // Pinterest // Google+ We had a great time chatting with Melyssa! We jump right in and chat with Melyssa about what success means to her. "My definition of success, I would say is - something that brings me joy, I want to do something that I love doing and also something that helps other people in the biggest way possible. I really want to involve as many people and build a strong community for other people. kind of on top of that, i feel like also, it's a taboo thing to say but I worry sometimes about money so having enough money to feel financially stable is something that makes me feel more successful. ... It's easy for me to feel insecure when money is tight so I would say that overall, my definition of success are things that bring me joy, that help people and that also make me feel like money is not an insecurity in my life." We talk with Melyssa about her career teaching English in Japan, and how teaching has always been a corner stone to what she does. Melyssa truly has a heart for teaching and building community. She shares with us how The Nectar Collective shifted over the years, and why she wants to help others feel safe, heard, and empowered. "here i was able to create this business pretty much on accident where it wasn't just about the paycheck anymore, now it was about doing something that i really love and involving other people in this dream of mine too."
