Unique Top-Of-Funnel App Strategy Adds Hundreds of New Customers Monthly On Auto-Pilot (and $335K Revenue To Date)

4/8/2024
Want to create your own branded app? Try Passion.io for free: https://passion.io/saas-free-trial?_go=ellen26 Recent studies show the average person spends 2 hours and 23 minutes a day on social media platforms, so imagine the power of capturing even a fraction of your dream customer’s screen time and diverting them from mindlessly scrolling to engaging with your business by turning your content into an off-social, destination experience. In early 2022, Megan Sumrell, time management expert and founder of The Pink Bee, launched a branded app for her business in the app store and leveraged it as a top of funnel strategy to convert cold leads into her signature $597 paid program. Instead of paying out of pocket for leads, Megan is getting paid to add new customers to her ecosystem. Todays’ case study takes you step by step through Megan’s hyper efficient funnel that generates hundreds of new leads monthly on auto-pilot while generating multiple six figures in backend revenue. This interview immediately cemented its spot as one of our most unique customer growth strategies shared by a CEO on this podcast.

Acquiring Over 300,000 New Customers With Performance Publishing

4/1/2024
You don't need to break the bank to boost your business! Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 To close out women’s history month, we’re chatting with two trailblazers disrupting the publishing industry. Lauren Kleinman and Lee Joselowitz are the co-founders of The Quality Edit (TQE), a modern media company at the intersection of content, curation, and conversion. After working with big name publishers like Buzzfeed in their previous marketing roles at the vitamin company Ritual, Lauren and Lee realized that the way these traditional publications were advertising their brand partners was stale and uninspired. They saw an opportunity to change the way publishers collaborate with their brand partners, and after 4 years of executing campaigns, it's clear they’re onto something. In today’s case study, we explore what performance publishing looks like, and how their storytelling strategy combined with simple ad creative has acquired more than 300,000 new customers for their brand partners.

These Q&A Parties Converted 100% of Participants Into Paying Customers Within 1 Year

3/25/2024
You don't need to break the bank to boost your business! Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 Is it possible to have a 100% conversion rate? Marketing strategist Sophia Parra’s case study today proves that with a well-timed nurture event, yes. Sophia started hosting Q&A text parties with her audience last year and found that over the course of one year, all but one participant converted into paying customers. The best part? These simple Q&A parties only required a few hours of her attention a couple times a year, no launch or tech set-up, and did not rely on having a large audience to be effective. This non-sales event may be the missing precursor to selling out your next launch. Here’s how she structured each Q&A party - scripts, data, and strategy included.

Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 According to CBS, 45% of women earn the same or more than their male spouses, almost triple the number from the 1970s. Of this group, 16% are the breadwinner in their family. What’s it like to navigate these changes while fighting outdated societal standards? I wanted to investigate. And while I recognize that no single person or couple can speak for everyone on such a complex topic, as a breadwinning woman myself, I was excited when today’s guest offered to let us into her honest experience of becoming the breadwinner, and the impacts it had on her marriage. Karina F. Daves is a relationship coach whose work has amassed 240,000 followers, with her content reaching 25 million views this month alone.

Should You Be Running Your Own FB Ads? How She Manages $1M+ In Annual Ad Spend Without An Agency

2/19/2024
You don't need to break the bank to boost your business! Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 Curious what it’s like to bring your ads in-house? Today’s case study gives you an inside look at the numbers and ads management process of a non-ads agency business spending more than $1 million yearly on Meta (aka Facebook & Instagram) ad campaigns. Again, these are their own campaigns and dollars, not ad spend for clients. After watching her cost per lead rise while her profit margin shrunk, Nicki Krawzcyk, creator of the Circuit Sales System and founder of Nicki K Media, decided it was time to let go of her ads agency and bring ads in-house. Not only did this move reduce her monthly management fees by 80% (from $3K in agency service retainers to just $600 to run her own ads), but it also helped her to understand her target audience faster and deeper than ever before. Find out if you’re ready to run your ads internally with Nicki’s 4 reflection questions, what type of ads are working best in 2024, and why adding a double opt-in is an underrated sales strategy.

Strategic Downsizing: This CEO Grew Take Home Pay By $60K When She Slashed Her Revenue From $650K to $300K.

1/22/2024
You don't need to break the bank to boost your business! Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 It’s counterintuitive that letting go of your team and clients would increase your take home pay, but this case study on intentionally downsizing your business proves that can be true. Despite a high demand for her services, nonprofit fractional fundraiser consultant Cindy Wagman realized the business she was growing didn’t actually align with the life she wanted to create. Cindy made a risky bet by letting go of all her employees and offboarding her existing clients, effectively slashing her annual revenue in half, from $650,000 to $300,000. The result? She reduced her workload to only 3.5 days a week while increasing her take home pay by $60K (and growing yearly). In this case study, we cover why this strategic downsize improved profitability, how Cindy facilitated this transition of her team and clients, and practical insights that will help any entrepreneur seeking to better align their business finances with their personal goals.

Tired Of Video-First Content? $50K Sold Out LinkedIn Launch Debrief

1/15/2024
You don't need to break the bank to boost your business! Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 Sick of creating video-first content for Instagram and TikTok? LinkedIn may be calling your name. Tania Bhattacharyya, founder of thought leadership consulting firm Lumos Marketing, helps social impact entrepreneurs and nonprofit teams stand out so they can stand up for their mission through storytelling and content strategy on LinkedIn. In today’s case study, Tania is giving us a Cubicle to CEO exclusive by revealing the 3 step process she used to easefully sell out her coaching program on LinkedIn with value-aligned clients, making $50K from her last two launches. This is intel she’s never even shared on her own podcast, The Campfire Circle. Whether you’re an active LinkedIn lurker, or someone who hasn’t touched their account since creating it for your first job, you’ll love this “less is more” approach to launch success on a non-saturated content platform. The best part? You can borrow Tania’s strategy even if you’re starting with an audience of zero on LinkedIn.
