Digital Products: The Next Step
Speaker 2Welcome to the I Am that Content Creator podcast , where this week I wanted to do a little something different , because last week I had one of those pinch me moments can't believe this happening . Is this really a thing when I got a chance to ask my coach and mentor , james Wedmore , a few questions about creating digital products and building online business and not as any questions . I got to ask these questions for you . So this is a brief but very , very poignant . Is that the right word ? It's going to be right now interview that I think you will enjoy . It's for women around the world , especially if you're 40 plus and you're ready to create something powerful , but you feel stuck or scared or unseen where to begin , and if you're younger than 40 , it totally applies to you too . It's just that our community , we seem to attract women 40 , women 50 , 60 , who are looking to take that next step , who may be creating UGC and they're creating incredible content , but they're looking for something else , and usually , certainly for us , that next step , that next progression , was digital products , and we've created a multiple , six-figure digital product which we absolutely love , and we're really , really passionate about taking you from an exceptional content creator and you do UGC and you enjoy it and you thrive in that space . But there sometimes comes this point where you're like , okay , what's next ? How can I create another form of income , a passive income income that I am passionate about building communities and generating income , that I get to be surrounded and do what I do every single day ? And the beauty that we love about it is UGC skills you as a content creator with incredible video marketing skills . It helps you create content that converts . It helps you become a magnet for your content , and it's so important to build a personal brand in this space . And what I love about this interview with James is I didn't even ask him the question flat out , but he confirmed everything I've known since 2015 , when I stepped into the online space , which is building a personal brand and being powerful and magnetic in who you are and what you stand for is going to be what's going to make you attractive in this space , which was really cool when he said it .
Speaker 2I kind of have one of those like damn moments . So this isn't a long interview , but I really think you should take the time , have a listen , know that there is something out there for you and if you are looking to grow in this space and you are looking to build a digital product . It's something that Mia and I support our community with when you're ready . So what we'd like to do first is get you set up , get you absolutely crushing UGC , because what we
James Wedmore and Rise of Digital CEO
Speaker 2see with UGC is that helps you create content that converts . It helps you build your confidence on camera . It helps you create content that continuously brings people into your community , and when you start doing stuff like that and becoming magnetic in this space , you'll find either brands come to you for more paid collabs or you go . You know what ? I want something more , I want something bigger , and that's where this whole digital product part of the puzzle unfolds . And look , right now , james is an eight figure a year coach and he has years of wisdom in this space . So getting these insights is just absolutely incredible , and for me , it was a total pinch me moment . And what we're doing right now is , on the 29th of May , james is hosting his live , free three-day event . It's called the Rise of the Digital CEO and , trust me , it's something you do not want to miss .
Speaker 2I've done this before . I purchased Business by Design , which is his large , incredible . It's not a course , it's a Lego instruction manual of how to actually create scale , six figures and beyond digital product . But I did the Rise of the Digital CEO first . I did it for free one year and I sat in it and I thought this is amazing . I don't know what I'm going to do without this .
Speaker 2What if I don't join ? And the what if was far greater to me than what if I join and I go nowhere . For me , that wasn't the big pull was what if I don't join ? And I'm still here in 12 months time ? And so I bit the bullet . I joined . I have never , ever regretted joining I've . The community is insane . Mia and I have learned so much from this community , so much from the Lego manual .
Speaker 2Now we're able to set up our digital product , so it's this machine that churns over , and instead of totally throwing the baby out with the bathwater over , that very creepy saying actually is , we've got to a point now with our launches that we understand what to tweak , when to tweak , looking at the numbers , so that you know , I spend a lot of time creating digital products , where I create them and I'd launch them and they go really well , and then I'd be like , oh , that didn't go , maybe as well as I thought . So I'm going to try something else . And if you're in our community , you know that there's some spicy minds going on . You know that we're a little neuro spicy , a little just shiny object syndrome .
Speaker 2What James does inside business by design , inside this portal , that is a , this Lego manual of instructions , is he gives you the tweaks and shows you the steps . And for someone that's built an eight figure a year business , the steps are true . If you listen to the podcast that he's got um mind , your business podcast , we'll put all the links in the show notes . You can go and listen to a few episodes , get immersed in this stuff . Because if you ever thought a digital product could be for you , I'm going to say do it .
Speaker 2And if you need the support , either inside our community has the support to get you there or get you going with your UGC and your video creation , and then we're stepping into supporting you in that way . Or , if you want to go right now , come to the Rise on the 29th of May . And all we ask is if you come to the Rise on the 29th of May and you decide that being part of business design , business by design , is your journey and your story . Let us know because we've got some epic bonuses that we will support you with if you join business by design . And certainly let us know because we are an affiliate for the program , because we honestly believe in it . Even if we weren't an affiliate for the program , I'd be like get your butts on the seat because it's worth every single moment of time you invest Like the money's the money , but the time you invest to learn this stuff , to take the steps , to do the process , it's all laid out for you . You kind of can't fuck it up .
Speaker 2Anyway , I'm a mad fan , but I want to get into this interview now . It's short , it's sweet and just enjoy . Any questions let us know in the DMs , drop in . But I hope you enjoy this chat . I know I did . I think it was a bit like not starstruck , but I was like just so happy to finally be able to ask these questions of James . I appreciate him taking the time and let's jump in . Let's go .
Am I Too Old For Digital Products?
Speaker 3This is Kristen Werner . Kristen , you're up .
Speaker 2Well , this is very exciting . Thank you so much for taking the time . You have no idea how excited I am to speak to you . A couple of questions that I wanted to know about , certainly , our community . We have a community of women kind of in their 40s plus , certainly 30 plus . They're mums , they're tired , they're overwhelmed and they have this thought in their head that they're too old to have a digital product . They're too old to start a digital product . 're too old to start a digital product . They don't sometimes know where or how , but I know that there's this overarching feeling that they just feel too old to start a digital product and I'm wondering if you've got some advice for them around that I don't want to convince anybody of anything .
Speaker 3No , you're not old enough . There's people older than you or there's people that are getting started later than you . Sure , we already know that there are . Like , let's be honest , okay , I mean , a classic example is like when did Louise Hay start writing books and create Hay House , like she was like in her mid sixties , okay , so there's plenty of examples . I think even the guy who'd created KFC was , you know , kentucky Fried Chicken , right , the Colonel .
Speaker 3What you really have to do is say , by me telling this story , this reason where I go , I want to do this , but I feel like I'm too old . The train has left the station , what ? In what way does that story serve me ? In what way does that story serve me ? So we lie to ourselves all the time . In what way does that story make me too old ? It's too late , there's not enough room for me . How does that serve me ?
Speaker 3It's not until you get honest with yourself that real change can begin , and I can kind of force feed you the answer here a little bit . It's protecting you , it's keeping you safe . You don't want to feel failure , disappointment , you don't want to waste time , you don't want to make a mistake . You don't want people to make fun of you . What is she doing now ? I get that , but are you living for them or are you living for you ? And the bottom line , no-transcript . If I want to start a business today , I'm going to go start a business today . I'm not going to have any qualms about it . Resistance , fears , concerns , because it's what I want to do . So how much are you being driven by what's in your head versus in your heart ? That's the real question .
Speaker 2And I love that . I think so often as women , and certainly in our 40s , there's just something that clicks , that you start to worry about what everyone else's thinks . So I really appreciate that answer and I think the other thing that I know we get a lot of pushback from our audience who , like I've said , they're in their 40s , their 50s , their 60s is this idea that a digital product won't work . For me , it's just not clicking .
The Three Essential Business Systems
Speaker 2What would you say to her ? What's she missing ?
Speaker 3Well , it can be any number of things , okay , so we're going to just walk it backwards . I'm going to share the three main systems that every and I'm assuming who I'm talking to is a coach , online expert , digital product creator you need to have these three things when we walk back . First is an offer . So you're going to have an irresistible offer . If you don't have something that people want , like when you talk about it , someone's like I need this and I want to give you money . Nothing else you do beyond there will ever change a darn thing . Okay , you cannot sell what people don't want . I can't sell a $997 course on how to tie your shoes . It's never going to sell , right . So some people have bad ideas , bad offers , right , so you got to have the great offer first . Number two , moving backwards , you got to have a great sales system . The sales system is what takes the want and turns it into a need .
Speaker 2Yeah , I do want to grow my YouTube following .
Speaker 3Yeah , I do want to lose weight . Yeah , I do want to , and by the end of the webinar , the challenge , the experience , the funnel , whatever it is that we teach it goes . Now I need this . This is the 80% of where people are messing it up . Their messaging , their webinar and their sales system sucks . It's bad , the content doesn't work , it's not addressing the objections , it's not highlighting the value of the offer and isn't compelling people to action . Nothing you can do if you got a bad webinar , sales system or sales funnel .
Speaker 3And then the third one is really what I'd say the fillet phase , or the traffic phase , which is , let's say , you have a great webinar , it converts to your great offer , but you can't get more than 20 people in the webinar to save your life . Well , that's going to be a problem as well , right ? So if we don't get a system for driving traffic , building an audience , getting more leads , we're in big trouble too . So all three of those systems must be dialed in . So anybody who's struggling , chances are they're good at one of those and they're bad at two . That's how it usually unfolds . Someone who's like crushing and makes seven , eight figures . They've nailed all three . That's it Really good at building the list , a really great webinar sales system just getting an example and an irresistible offer . The practice sells itself . You've got to identify which of the one , two , maybe all three that are underperforming for you and you've got to fix them .
Speaker 2Okay , that's good . I feel a little bit called out , which I do love , because when you talk about those three things working , I know that we have one , maybe two , working really well , but I don't think they're all working exactly together . So that was a nice little call out . I suppose I found myself nodding like okay , but I also think that's very helpful because a lot of our audience wouldn't have all three and may not even know where to start with all three . So that's something that we certainly work with them to do and something that I know that BBD is such an incredible help for us to dial those things in . And that's where we've been able to dial in our one , two and three , if you will , and where we now can look at our numbers , like you're always saying , and see that those numbers aren't maybe working in certain areas and how to dial them up and change them . So I think I think that's really helpful .
Speaker 2Thank you , so I suppose my final question is there's a lot of there could be hesitation around investing in personal development , investing in more courses , and a lot of our community have invested in certain courses that they haven't seen results for , and I know when I first went to invest in BBD .
Speaker 2I'd invest in other courses that were incredibly helpful , that have got me to where I've kind of started to get to , but BBD was like that , just that anchor point that I knew would be the part that would get me across the line , and absolutely did . I'm so thankful for everything inside BBD and what is being taught there . But I suppose why is BBD different from your point of view ? I know why it's different from my point of view . I know I love sharing that with my community and anybody listening why it's changed my life completely . But from your point of view , why is it different ? And for anybody that's sitting on the fence thinking it won't work for me ? I've tried everything before . This is just another course . How can you kind of share with them what
What Makes BBD Different
Speaker 2makes it different ?
Speaker 3I suppose you know , I think there's a couple of things I want to say here . It took me four and a half years before anything clicked for me , and this is what I wanted to do with my life more than anything . There's four and a half years of 10 to 12 hour days . I got addicted to Adderall and became a workaholic . I dropped down to like 142 pounds . I looked like a skeleton , I was very unhealthy and had an unbalanced life , and I think the more it wasn't working , the more I've just dug my heels in . And here I am today and what I've committed and dedicated my life to is the obsession of like what what does it ?
Speaker 3really take in this industry . What is the difference ? That makes the difference , and it isn't just one thing , okay , it's a series of things , and what I do see and I'm not trying to knock anyone else's products is they're missing one of those things minimum . Okay , it's a series of things , and what I do see and I'm not trying to knock anyone else's products is they're missing one of those things minimum , okay . And so business by design was just to bring the whole enchilada . So for some people , they've got strategy problem . So we've we've mentioned this before but if you don't have a great audience generation or traffic or lead generation system , with a pair , with a great sales system and a great offer , nothing you're doing is going to ever work . You got to have all three of those , so you got to have the strategy , okay .
Speaker 3The next piece , of course , is people's work ability . People work on the wrong things . They spend too much time on things that are not worth their time and trying to do it all themselves . And so business by design didn't just want to give a strategy the three things I just shared but I also wanted people to deliver the work or be more workable behind the scenes . You know , like if I pop open the hood to your business . This is where outsourcing delegation , knowing where your time goes , is so important , so you can get there faster without getting burnt out .
Speaker 3Okay , that's a huge one . And then the third thing is there really is an energy component to all of this . The energy that you bring as a personal brand and your content , your webinars , all this is everything People don't buy from people that look like a deer in the headlights , people that are nervous and scared and full of self-doubt . So you can't just go through the motions and say I don't , I don't get it . I did what the person said in the webinar . People are like , literally , whether they're doing it consciously or unconsciously , they're scanning you , and if you're trying to convince them and you haven't even convinced yourself , you don't think they don't see that .
Speaker 1So there's an energy component .
Speaker 3There's a particular type of role or energy that we need to be in to be successful as a personal brand , and and it's it's all of those . So you need a great strategy , you need a great operating system , and I'll just bracket it as like you need to great operating system , and I'll just bracket it as like you need to be magnetic . You , you especially more today . You need , you need to be in the person that everyone wants to learn from , and if that's not in place , you're probably repelling people uh , thank you so much for taking the time and answering those questions .
Speaker 2I know it's going to help our community . It's an absolute joy to hear from you and hear those things and really reassuring . And it looks like I'm jumping back into BVD because there's a couple of things I need to tighten up . But , yeah , really appreciate your time . We'll see you in the podcast . We've got so many good ones too .
