More Content Won’t Save a Bad Offer

One thing that comes up in my coaching calls a lot is that people want to just create more content.

The client wishes to work more on content.
Content creation definitely has a lot of value.

I also enjoy it—the work.
Yet creating more content only helps when we have a business in the booth.
More content is not going to fix your offer problem.

I have tried this many times—and it doesn’t work.

I have grown a YouTube channel to be monetized to get the clicks to my offer.
Because I was so focused on creating content, I didn’t notice I had the right audience and the real audience didn’t care or wasn’t interested in my products anymore.

I only saw success once I matched my content to my clients.
That’s when it changed.

For that, I really had to understand who my clients were and what offer would help them.
That’s all that matters.

So fix your offer to make better content to grow your business.

At this point, more content will result in more busyness.
That’s what it comes down to.

More content can make you run in the wrong direction at 100 miles per hour.

Don’t. Please don’t repeat my mistakes.
It was a hard lesson to learn.

I say: Focus on your offer.
Validate it with real people.

Then you’re going to be ready to take it online and grow it like magic.

  • Marketing Means to Amplify Your Product

    Hey Reader, Every day that I’m on Twitter/X, I get cold DMs. These guys pitching to get more clients, upgrade my sales, and get more leads. Often it feels like we’re just needing to sell better to sell more. That marketing is just a numbers game to make more money. When I look at the backend of their business, there is one number they don’t like to share: their churn rate. The churn rate is the rate at which clients cancel again.

  • The Marathon No One Told Me About

    Business is not a One Time Thing. It is a lifelong journey. Many believe that they can win in business fast. At least when I look at their actions, they work like they are done in one year. That’s also how I got started. Thinking I just need to post 5 videos to YouTube and it will go viral. Then I create one product for $100 and I’ll be rich. Those were the three steps I thought would be what business was about. Now 8 years later—I learned it takes a lot more to run a successful business. The…

  • Stick to the basics

    Hey Reader, Often I feel like I could skip ahead. Like I know what it’s about and then I fast forward. This newsletter today is an important reminder for myself as well. When my son was a bit younger, like last year, he was trying to walk. He was practicing one step at a time. Now, when we’re going to the park, he loves to run around. There are situations where he is less comfortable. So he slows down. He takes it one step at a time. Obviously, it doesn’t always work. He falls down and gets…

  • New is better than better

    New is better than better Don’t try to beat your competition by being better than they are. Don’t try to win at their game. Be a new opportunity. Challenge the standard. Create something new. It’s not just the same old – just a bit better. It’s not good enough to make a little less. Find the new combination. Don’t just try to be better. Being better means you can easily be compared. You will not create mass momentum – you will be fighting a pricing war. Who can be the cheaper solution? It’s…

  • Don’t become a Tactic-Addict

    Hey Reader, We are so often concentrated on learning everything there is. We want to be fully prepared. We do more and more research. It is all about knowing the latest tactics. We become addicted to learning the newest tactics. The new update to the tactic we’re already planning to use. There is a quote that got me thinking recently. I’m not sure who said it:“It’s not about learning all the tactics, it’s about becoming the person capable of using the tactics.” We need to become men of…
