MBA1482 The Best Time to Send Your Email Newsletters + Free Ride Friday

Email is still the most important marketing channel you have. But your emails won’t do much for your business if no one is reading them. 

Part of getting those open, read, and click rates up is finding the right time for your message to hit the inbox — which isn’t as simple as you might think, despite tons of advice out there about certain days of the week or hours of the day.

Spoiler alert: there is no magic day or hour during which emails get universally higher open rates. If there was, your inbox would be hit by roughly 40 gazillion emails every week at that exact time.

You have to do a little investigating.

We’ve seen companies send at days and times that seem terrible at first glance, but work for the audience in question. Over time, we’ve put in the work to figure out when our contacts are more or less likely to read our messages, and time them accordingly.

You can, too. This episode will tell you how.

Conduct a few exercises and experiments, just like we did. Get that engagement up, and start turning your ‘mails into sales. Click Play!

MBA1481 How to Use Automated Webinars to Sell Your Online Course

Ready to extend your reach way beyond your daily working hours? If you have a course to sell, there’s a method that can save you a ton of time and energy, all while bringing in passive leads and sales.

Automated webinars.

Some people call them “evergreen” webinars. Whatever the name, they’re more than just videos. They’re pre-recorded interactive lessons, optimized to generate leads, sales, or both. And they work! You can build your authority and sell your course around the clock.

…but only if you do these webinars right. So many people do them so, so wrong.

Yes, we also own a webinar software company. So we’ve seen what makes these increasingly popular lessons work – and what makes them totally crash and burn. Today, we’ll share the most important Do’s and Dont’s — no matter what software you use.

Learn the unique advantages that automated webinars have, and the key elements necessary to make them effective. Your course is about to sell to a whole new group of people. Click Play!

MBA1478 Guest Teacher: Graham Brown – How To Influence, Engage, And Create Change Through Storytelling

The best product doesn’t win. The product with the best story wins.

Narrative is how we learn. More importantly, it’s how we’re convinced. Stories take a lesson, person, or product past the gates of our conscious decision making and into the most impressionable parts of our minds.

Ask any great teacher which lessons work best: the ones with facts and stats, or the ones with stories.

Today, special guest teacher Graham Brown is here to explain how to find and use your business’s story. With examples from history and business, Graham proves how stories create the context for understanding that truly drives decisions on an emotional level.

A business without a story is powerless. Tune in, learn how to harness the power of storytelling, and get access to a great free resource. Click Play!

MBA1477 Outsourcing Your Most Time Consuming Tasks + Free Ride Friday

Forget the dollar, the euro, the pound. The most valuable currency on Earth is time.

So let’s get you more of it.

Odds are, you’re doing things you don’t have to. These tasks are thieves, robbing you of the  precious resource of time — a resource that can’t be replenished. Your time alive is a bank account from which you can only make withdrawals. When you run a business, it’s easy to lose track of how much is coming out.

You might be surprised just how much time you can save, when you take a look at your day systematically.

Today, we’ll explain how to conduct a time inventory, and offload the biggest time-suckers to other people. You may find that what you think are small, quick tasks are actually adding up to hours per week of waste. 

Don’t surrender another second!

We’ll share strategies and resources you can use to accurately diagnose your time usage, identify the waste, and get it off your plate. The best part? As shocked as you might be by where your time is going, you may be just as surprised at how affordable it is to outsource. 

What’s the point of entrepreneurship, if not to gain the freedom to live life? Take these tips, get some time back, and use it however you want — before your time runs out. Click Play!
