And as you listen along, you'll find out why MoonClerk is better for you than Stripe, why they're bootstrapped, and how they've survived after raising prices by over 60%.

In today's episode, I'm going to highlight the power of group coaching as a way of monetizing a podcast. Group coaching is a unique way to monetize a podcast because you get more value from it than just money. A small group of people dedicated to supporting one another toward the common goal that the podcast will offer education, brainstorming, and accountability to help you stay on track with whatever you're trying to learn or accomplish. You as the host of the podcast will be a member of the group too, which means you have to limit it to a small group of people who can add value to your business as well.  You should not be a teacher, but you can still charge for slots because you're the organizer. If you build your podcast around a niche topic, It's likely that most of your listeners will be interested in similar types of growth opportunities and can learn a lot from each other which is what will enable you to charge them. How much you can charge will depend mostly on how niche of a topic it is and the number of people who will be interested, but either way group coaching will be a great way to start monetizing your podcast. Stay tuned and be keen as I share more. Show Highlights The challenge podcasters have when they wanna start a podcast that they can monetize (01:38) How group coaching can help you get unstuck from creating free content (03:36) Learning how to further help your ideal listeners and clients (04:58) Why making a formalized product is the best way to go (08:15) Not giving your time away for free and providing value to people at different price points (11:25) Offering something at lower ticket with a lower barrier to entry to get more clients (14:02) Using group coaching as the first step towards creating a course or book (15:35) A group coaching (Private Facebook Group) success story (19:46) Starting with the safer route towards earning your first dollars from your podcast (23:12) Resources Mentioned https://www.moonclerk.com/ (Moonclerk) https://gumroad.com/ (Gumroad.com) Want to learn more? https://www.facebook.com/groups/PodcastMonetizationSecrets (Join our private Facebook group here!)

Product Launch In 7 days with Barry Moore How do you launch a product in 7 days? Let me introduce you to Barry Moore. Barry trained as a combat pilot in the US Marines and then served in US Air Force and Australian Air Force. These days he's either flying commercial aircraft (viruses permitting) or doing his magic as a marketing automation specialist. If there's one thing most combat pilots are good at, it's process and checklists. Turns out, processes are critical when it comes to launching a product quickly and then putting that on autopilot. In this conversation, Barry explains his approach to getting a product launched within 7 days. Some key insights he shared in this conversation: * What does automation (autopilot) really mean and why it can be a disaster for you if it's not done right. * How to 'find the pivot' The wonders of MoonClerk and why you should consider it for your business (you can get it going in 10 minutes) * Why you should consider productizing your knowledge Affiliate marketing options   Links Mentioned: * www.activemarketeracademy.com * www.GetMeToDone.com * www.Productiveinsights.com * www.YouTube.com/ProductiveInsights * https://productiveinsights.com/the-eisenhower-matrix/ Related Episodes: * 177.

This is Ash Roy, the founder of productiveinsights.com and the host of the productive insights podcast and I'm very excited to welcome back Barry Moore, who was previously on episode 177 where Barry and I talked about automation and a little bit about tagging. Now when we spoke before we promised that we would come back and talk about tagging and further detail, which we are going to do in this two-part series, but before we do that, I want to just reintroduce Barry to you. Barry is an ex US Marine who trained as a combat pilot and these days flies commercial planes and when he's not doing that, he's cooking up some insanely useful courses on marketing and automation and you can find out more about them at theactivemarketer.com I've known Barry for a few years, I think very highly of him. Ash Roy (01:44): I've had some really bright people on this podcast and I consider Barry as being one of those when he's not charming others with his boyish good looks and bracing around India in Oderick shows, he is talking to people like me on the productive insights podcast. So welcome back, Barry. Barry Moore (02:04):

Today, I'm talking with Dodd Caldwell, the Co-Founder and CEO of MoonClerk, a SaaS startup that lets you accept recurring and one-time online payments in just 5 minutes. Dodd is somebody I first bumped into at Patrick Campbell's conference, SaaS Fest (now Recur), a few years back and I've been following his story since. He and his small team have built a multi-million dollar a year SaaS business completely bootstrapped and they've done so while avoiding the spotlight and remaining humble. In our chat, we dive into what it's been like building MoonClerk to millions in ARR and more than 6,000 customers all while running a lean operation, maintaining his sanity, and still finding time for the causes that matter most to him. Dodd has a refreshingly grounded take on entrepreneurship that everybody can get a lot out of.

Feel like your agency is stuck or reached a plateau? It happens, whether you're just starting out or in business for many years. Don't get frustrated or settle for the status quo. Instead, it might be time to get back to the basics, get scrappy and get creative. With the right strategy, mindset, and persistence you can make some tweaks that help you jump that next hurdle and reach a new level for your agency. In today's episode, we'll cover: How working for free can really pay off. How to execute outbound sales. #1 most important agency growth tip. Why you should re-think your billing. Today, I talked with Colton Bollinger founder of JumperMedia.co, an Instagram marketing agency. Colton started out in 2016 providing free Instagram marketing services to some buddies and golf instructors. What started out two years ago as a solopreneur-venture has grown now to include two partners and a team of  44 employees! How Working for Free Can Really Pay Off Colton got really scrappy in the beginning, which meant bootstrapping his business and executing unconventional ideas. One of those ideas was to work for free and develop case stories. Sometimes giving away your services for free can actually help you grow. It seems counterintuitive, but that's exactly what Colton did and he says it was a major key to his early growth. He started by offering his Instagram marketing services totally free. Instead of making his clients pay, he asked them for video testimonials. These videos performed better than just a written testimonial and served as organic, value-adding references. He says his "clients" were more than happy to record testimonials to help him grow and succeed since he'd delivered them great results for free. How to Execute Outbound Sales Beyond his inbound leads, Colton knew he had to execute on outbound sales too. He started out by cold calling and sending super specific direct messages to prospects. (Kinda like Joey Gilkey suggested with his LinkedIn outbound strategy.) I always recommend a 3-pronged approach to prospecting -- inbound, outbound and strategic partnerships. That way when one channel dries up you can still scale and grow with the other two. Hyper-specific, highly targeted messages are critical. Don't be generic with a copy/paste message. Be unique, different and personal. Do your homework and point out what they're doing right and where they could use improvement. The more personalized you can make your outreach efforts the more of a payoff you'll see from them. Related:  How to Find and Train an Agency Sales Rockstar #1 Most Important Agency Growth Tip Go back to the basics! Here's the interesting thing about agency owners, we're all pretty similar in skill and knowledge. Most of us are just hustling to grow and scale their business the best way they can. But, if what you're doing is not yielding the results you want then it might just require one minor tweak. It's like a pro golfer (Colton was one!) or tennis pro (I was one!) who knows all the intricate moves and complex strategies of the game. But sometimes they just need to go back to tweaking their swing and BOOM! Seriously! Find little areas for improvement or small things that you can do differently. Those micrometer differences may be exactly what you're missing. It's almost never some giant thing that needs fixing -- it's usually a small tweak. Why You Should Re-Think Your Billing Cash flow is king... Don't settle for the old "the check's in the mail" excuse!  Colton said automating their billing and setting up recurring billing was one of the most important things his agency has done. Think about the way you're billing customers and look at ways you can improve cash flow such as: changing payment terms accepting credit cards charging a month or more in advance There are so many tools out there, Colton likes Moonclerk and Stripe recurring. Instead of waiting for the check to come in the mail, you can spend that money on client acquisition and grow at accelerated speeds. Reconsidering your billing options may give your agency the growth boost it needs. Are You Looking for Outsourced Copywriting for Your Agency or Clients?

Today’s question: Today’s question comes from Gary. What does it mean to build a codeless MVP? Is this something a pre-product startup should consider? Jake’s answer: I’ve seen people talk about codeless MVPs on a lot of channels lately, such as ProductHunt, but it’s not a new concept. A codeless MVP is product that you build that doesn’t force you to write custom code in order to launch it. An example would be setting up a SquareSpace site, using a template, and then a Stripe checkout form. Then, the work on the backend is manual rather than done with code. You aren’t necessarily tricking your customer because you are still providing the advertised service, it’s just not being done by backend code yet. A Codeless MVP Example Imagine I’m the founder of Airbnb and I want to put up a version of my product without building the backend code. So what would a codeless MVP look like? I would start by putting up a WordPress site without custom code. I would add a theme that’s for rental listings and then whenever someone posts a listing on a form, I publish it to the site. One step further would be setting up a form that asks them to sign up for deals or discounts and then when they sign up I just send them an email with the deals - not automated in any way. In this case, it’s not the exact final product offering, but I would be connecting with people who want to list their properties and then sending them out to people who want to rent them. Not every startup can do a codeless MVP and if you can, it may be to a different extent than the example I’ve discussed. I’ve seen very few startups where a codeless MVP wouldn’t work unless what your startup does is intimately tied to the code itself. If you are saying that you will use AI to analyze emails (or something similar) then you can’t really do this without Codeless MVPs for B2B Startups Most B2B startups can use a codeless MVP because they serve to solve a problem for other businesses that is tangible. For example, let’s say you are starting a business where you are helping businesses automate their Instagram posts. What you could do is build a landing page that allows them to signup and have them checkout with Stripe or MoonClerk. Once they checkout, you can contact them and get their Instagram info so you can access their account to start automating their posts. You can then use that money to validate the idea and then build out the actual product. Tim Ferriss used to use a trick with AdWords and landing pages to test keywords and ideas, which essentially served as a codeless MVP. The landing page wouldn’t charge them for anything but would let them checkout and tell them they will be contacted when the product is ready. If you are interested in having us help you do that, then email Hello@launchpeer.com and let us know you want some help with that and we can get started.
