The Art Of Paid Traffic | Proven Online Advertising Strategies You Can Implement Today

I love taking you guys behind the scenes of things going on in my business, and in today’s episode, I am doing just that! Today we are covering paid workshops, which is a concept that has been around forever, but this is the first time I am trying it for myself.  I created my first workshop earlier this year as I wanted to try something new.  I desired to keep it simple, yet I wanted to over-deliver on a topic for a small price.  Based on the feedback from the workshop, I believe I did just that!  I am breaking it all down for you -- from setting your goals, outlining content, creating a promotional strategy, and evaluating your workshop when it's over. Launching a profitable paid workshop shouldn't be overwhelming. When you break it down to the must-haves, it becomes so much easier.  I was extremely happy with the results, so I am excited to share what worked, what didn’t, and how you can use paid workshops in your business.   I encourage you to look at the assets you have available that you can le

My guest on the show today calls herself one of my star students, and I definitely agree! Kaity Griffin successfully scaled an e-commerce business using Google Ads.   That’s when she realized she was more passionate about the Google Ads side of the business, which she says engaged both the creative and data-driven sides of her brain.  Kaity sold her e-commerce business and moved to a well-known Google Ads agency in Melbourne, Australia.  After her second child was born, she realized she had a desire to start her own business. Fast forward to today, and she is now an expert in Google AdWords and has built a multiple six-figure business in a short amount of time, all while having two kids under five.  Kaity runs a successful Google AdWords agency and has launched her course teaching Google Ads.  She is a “mum” who is very protective of her time and only works three days a week so she can be fully present with her kids.  Kaity reveals her big WHY (her family), which is the filter for everything she does in her b

What I love most about Facebook and Instagram ads is that when you use them to grow an online business, they are a source of predictable leads and sales. That is the foundation of a scalable business, especially when combined with your organic efforts, such as social media, a podcast, blog or YouTube channel. What hold so many people from running ads though is the fear of losing money (and/or time!) and not having any results to show for it. Today’s guest is Nicole Burke, and you’re going to get a lot from her story of how she overcame this fear to run ads, and after figuring them out, she is now off to the races!In addition to running a brick and mortar business called Rooted Garden, which she started with only $400 and grew it to 6-figures in just one year, Nicole is the founder of Gardenary, the online platform that connects beginner and learning gardeners with experienced gardeners through courses, workshops, and garden coaching. Most of our conversation focuses on this business, and how Nicole grew it to

We look at how she has completely changed the way she thinks about paid advertising, the way she grew her email list from 6,000 to 36,000 people over the course of just one single summer, her process for creating content, and so much more.Jamie is a great example of someone who has committed to doing what’s hard in business, and not just the easy stuff, and it’s really paid off and allowed her to stand out in her niche.
