In today's episode of the FEMnation podcast, I dove into the surprisingly affordable world of starting an online business, specifically focusing on knowledge-based businesses like course creation and coaching. I broke down the myth that launching an online venture requires heavy financial investment, and instead, I shared how you can kickstart your business for less than $26 a month. The key takeaways from our discussion were the importance of producing consistent content to engage with algorithms and build visibility, and the necessity of growing your audience organically without relying on the formalities of a traditional business setup. I highlighted practical tools like Membervault for managing content and memberships, and my own Coach Launch Toolkit, designed to support new entrepreneurs in building their ventures affordably and effectively. By emphasizing content creation, audience building, and smart, low-cost tools, I aimed to empower listeners to start their online business journeys confidently and cost-effectively. It's all about simplicity, consistency, and strategic growth in the vibrant world of online entrepreneurship.

Mike Kelly is the CTO and Co-Founder of MemberVault, living in Olympia Washington with CEO Wife, 3 kids, and a giant dog. Here's what we covered on the episode: The Creation of MemberVault Mike shares that he started writing code in the 5th grade and has been a developer his whole life - before MemberVault, he was a freelance developer At one point, Mike and his wife Erin started a business where she would design websites, and he would build them, but shared that it was a disaster Mike took time off to be a stay-at-home dad after having their first child, where he started building MemberVault as a side project that came as a need from one of Erin's clients After getting enough interest in the platform, Mike and Erin created a beta, and it slowly started to gain momentum In 2019, Erin reached a crossroads in her business and joined Mike at MemberVault full-time Mike shares some mistakes he and Erin first made when they started MemberVault Early on, Mike and Erin realized the demand was for more than courses; people wanted to sell digital ebooks, one-on-one service, etc, which made it hard to identify the platform at first Leaning into what they were good at set them apart from other big platforms in the market Mike explains the difficult decisions he and Erin had to make about their business model so they could scale but continue helping individual customers on a personal level MemberVault is rolling out a new tiered system for membership that Mike explains Mike is the only full-time developer but brings in people on contract to help - they also use a company that monitors their servers 24/7 MemberVault has evolved from just selling digital products to having pages, navigation, blogs, comments, file uploads, questions, and so much more because they listen to their users and can implement their ideas quickly As a freelance developer, companies push for the fastest and cheapest option, so Mike felt he couldn't do his best work and take care of the finished product, which bothered him Mike talks about how it is to run a business from home and homeschool their 3 children How To Use MemberVault + Updates MemberVault wants to be your central hub for all your services and products so people can go to one place to find all your offerings 88% of people who enter your MemberVault for a freebie will click around to see what else you offer In MemberVault, you can see what people are clicking on so you can meet them where they're at and start a conversation instead of having a fixed automated funnel A big thing MemberVault is working on right now is automated sales tax because Mike explains that the tech around it is a nightmare, and the solutions are expensive With MemberVault's tighter integration with Stripe, you'll be able to manage your subscriptions in one place Mike's tips for any platform are having a quality and consistent logo, readable brand colors, quality product images, linking up your socials, and showing your range of offers so people know how they can work with you Check out MemberVault - when you sign up for a free trial, you'll get access to all their resources to help you and an invite to their Facebook community Links mentioned: MemberVault Website MemberVault on Instagram MemberVault on Facebook Like what you heard?

Online Courses Made Easy | How to Build, Launch, and Deliver Profitable Courses
Hey Friend! I dive into the world of online courses in today's episode. I break down the key factors to consider when deciding if it's time to add an online course to your business. From assessing your expertise to identifying the demand for your course, I cover it all. Plus, I share insights on creating a clear course outline and structure, marketing your course effectively, and the tech systems you need to launch it. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, this episode will provide you with valuable information on how to take your business to the next level through the power of online courses. I'd love to hear if you are ready to add an online course to your business.
Years ago there was a course builder called Member Vault that had a fully functional free plan that enabled you to sell your course. This was a great way to get proof of concept. Once you had people buying your course/community, you could then upgrade to a higher plan (which you could afford). Unfortunately, they turned off their free version. Recently I discovered Fresh Learn, which has a fully functional free plan. If you need to upgrade, it's only $39/month ($29 if you go for a year). If you need to "No Brainer" version, it's only $69 a month ($49 if you go with a year). It's very impressive, and while other sites like Teachable are raising their fees, the two systems I'm talking about today have zero fees. Fresh Learn has no fees on any plan, and neither does New Zenler. New Zenler is $67/month and is similar to Kajabi. While Fresh Learn also has marketing tools (email lists), New Zenler (being around longer) appears to have a few more. Fresh Learn has 20/7 live chat which is nice. As a customer of New Zenler I can say that their service is like nothing I have ever experienced. They are constantly doing live sessions where you can connect and work with others as well as demos, open Q&A sessions and more. Their email support was helpful and quick. Part of this was kicked off by hearing that Teachable is raising their fees (not a ton, but meanwhile, these two options don't have ANY fees)The point of this episode was to show that if you want proof of concept without paying for a course tool, then Fresh Learn may be something you need to check out.

Skyscraper Pages Last week, we talked about topic clusters, making lists of topics or content themes based on your expertise. A list is nice, but what do you do with it? This week we're detailing skyscraper pages. Sometimes called pillar posts, or the skyscraper technique, think of this as the 'center' of your topic cluster — the most important content related to a cluster. Think of this as your 'ultimate guide' to ultimate guides. Presentation/Training: What is a skyscraper page?

That which is an impediment to action is turned to advance action. The obstacle on the path becomes the way.” —Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 5.20You have the power of turning obstacles upside down, taking one negative circumstance and using it as an opportunity to practice an unintended virtue or form of excellence. How can I use this obstacle as an opportunity? I'm sure more good things will come from this occasion that I do not yet see. I have faith that doing what feels important and right is always the right course. Even if some other things need to be put on hold.

In this week's episode Tara speaks with pro music biz coaches Bree Noble and Katie Zaccardi all about the ways of exploring what skills you have as a singer and musician and then how you can turn it into teaching or coaching, adding to your income stream! They chat all about the ins and outs and finding ways to make it happen for you! My vocal course is NOW OPEN! Click here for access: https://tarab.vipmembervault.com/products/courses/view/12 And if you want 50% off the course, click here to get on my newsletter: How to know when you are ready to teach: “It's hard to know until you try it.” (Bree on knowing when to teach) She says to get past imposter syndrome and be willing to acknowledge where you are at and then try it out to see if you enjoy it. “I get lit up about teaching marketing and business.” (Bree) “There are a lot of things that you can teach that aren't necessarily singing…vocal performance…stage presence…” (Katie) Katie talks about when people start to ask YOU questions about how to do something, that can be a catalyst to know you are ready. How do you find your strengths: Knowing what you enjoy and feel passionate about. Looking at your own story that you have come through and could help others with. How do people set themselves apart from others who are teaching: By knowing your identity and your personal experience. Looking at your story and the things that are personal to you—example: being a mom or starting a career later. “You can attract them just by telling your story and talking about the struggles that you went through. They're really going to identify with that.” (Bree) What are some barriers to starting to teach: Imposter syndrome—putting yourself out there—being willing to say that you can help. People often think that the strategy is going to be the issue of starting to teach when really it's the mindset to take the leap and do it with confidence. What are some aspects of teaching private lessons: One-on-one or private can be the simplest way to start out and will give you the opportunity to see how you actually coach. “One-on-one is great because you can meet your client where they are at.” (Katie) What are some aspects of teaching group lessons/classes: In group coaching, they can learn from each other through someone else asking the questions that they needed. Also, since people aren't at the same level, they can take the pieces they need and encourage each other. There is a lot of support that can happen. “As artists, we are in such an island mentality..It's us against the world…we don't have other people around us that are understanding what we are going through…” (Bree) What are ways to get students: In person—referrals can be a great way to do it. Virtual—you can target anyone anywhere. So you need to be showing up on social media, and connecting with others there. Also, leaning into your identity to help people find common connection points with you. What are things to consider in setup of teaching: Making it easy is the best way to start. Don't overthink. Don't get tripped up on the tech. Just do it. Use a Facebook group, or do Zoom calls, or Muzie, Or host a course on Teachable, Kajabi, Membervault or other online hosts. The most important thing is to: Know what you are teaching, have a means to meet with your clients, have a way to reach your clients! OUT TO LAUNCH program—opening doors the fall of 2021.

85% of purchased online courses are never completed.A big reason is that course-creation advice tends to be pretty light on the practical side.Everybody tells us that, in order to get a major leg-up as an online business owner, we must make a course, but few tell us how to make one that, you know, actually sells.Even fewer can explain how to create one that delivers results to your clients and doesn't overwhelm them.If someone buys your course and doesn't end up completing it, what you end up with isn't just a disgruntled client who didn't receive your promise on the sales page. What you also end up with is a blank testimonials section.And don't even think you're getting referrals from that client you let down.Ready to level up your business by putting together an online course that sells?In this episode, I go over the six steps you need to take in order to distill your genius into a digestible course that creates results for your clients, generates testimonials and referrals, and allows you the lifestyle freedom and the revenue to create sales in your sleep and take a much-deserved break. In this episode, we talk about… ● [03:24] Why you need to create a system for your sales process.● [05:05] Step #1: Establish your course foundations (using the four Cs).● [09:14] Step #2: Select your profitable course topic (by asking the right questions).● [19:38] Step #3: Get clear on the content that sells your course (with client-centered language).● [28:18] Step #4: Price your course to sell with ease (and adjust it accordingly).● [32:54] Step #5: Create your professional look and design (without breaking the bank).● [44:30] Step #6: Figure out where you will host your course (via a dedicated course platform).● [53:20] A recap of the six steps.
