Day 16 — A Day in the Life of a Dadpreneur
This is a LIVE case study where I am documenting my journey to becoming a highly paid marketing consultant by blogging everyday for 50 consecutive days. It’s called “50 Days to Freedom: My Journey to 5 Figures in 50 Days“. At the end of the post, you will find links to all the previous days.
I started doing these videos a couple weeks ago, and have a lot of fun doing it.
I will share the daily video here in these posts, to show you that starting a business while raising kids, is certainly possible.
Juggling kids and a business takes self-discipline, which I have got pretty good at over the last 7 years.
Of course, there is always room for improvement.
Here is today’s video…
Day #16 Breakdown
Today is I emailed Illinois CrossFit gyms with the free 10 day trial of Facebook advertising I have been using, as that seems to be working well for me.
I learned a long time ago — if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
I also sent out some emails about helping chiropractors increase their bottom line by 25% without spending a penny on advertising, by uncovering and optimizing their hidden assets.
I really enjoy helping businesses find “hidden money” in their business, as EVERY business that’s when in business for at least 3 years, it is almost certain they have assets they are not fully employed.
I need to work on my email sequence, as these campaigns have not generated any interest.
When you’re marketing online, you’re going to fail A LOT.
Get used to it.
I had a call scheduled with a guy this morning, and he never showed up. Emailed him about re-scheduling, but have not heard back from him.
This happens, and I typically give them ONE shot, then I move on. I don’t have time for someone who is not going to respect my time. There are PLENTY of business owners out there that are eager to work with me.
As a marketing consultant/service provider, you have to take a stand against this.
You are valuable.
Value your time, so others will value it as well.
Also, I have 3 demo funnels that I sent out to gym owners. We should be launching ads for the first gym tomorrow, or Thursday.
Finally.
