Had an email exchange with a fitness/weight loss coach who was receptive to the idea of auctions at first (I started by sending him the 7-minute auction explainer video, which got him interested enough to send me details about his list/offer and book a call). But overnight he pulled a total 180, canceled the call and sent me the attached screenshot below. Bummer. My understanding is that auctions are something you can run regularly (I was thinking once a month, not sure how frequently you all might be running them). I'm also not sure what he means by diluting his brand - tried following up and asking exactly what he meant by that but no response so far. For context: He has 11k LinkedIn followers and an active email list of 10k with 50% open rates. Offer is $500 up front + $100/wk ongoing, typicall length seems to be 6 months. Would love some insights as to what the real issues are here and how you might respond to this. Thanks!

So after all advice being given, I remember something pretty sure has been told: use a symptom in your email they can see. Examples: 1. People who bought your course but never took your consultation (blind, no see) 2. People who went on a consultation with you but never bought (visible, something they see). True, isn't it?

I'm going through the self-paced CDOD training and after sending a core rehabilitation specialist the five original email follow ups I hit her with the One-Sentence offer and got a response! She laid out objections in the reply (which I know is a good thing). I want to make sure I'm "listening" to her so the customized Loom will handle the objections. First, here's the email I sent and then her reply: ********************************************* Subject: Offer for COMPANY NAME Hi Kelly, I’ve got a super fun way to upgrade your free COMPANY NAME members to paid members. Here's the offer: For every $10,000 I send in sales shoot over $2500 to me AFTER the money is in your bank account. I’m only looking for abundant-minded partners. I’ve put more deets and examples in a Loom vid, would it make any sense to send it? A quick "yes" or "no" is cool. - Chad Boswell P.S. I've been through your PROGRAM NAME and healed my diastasis recti back in 2024. You may have me as Daniel Boswell in your system. Her response: Hi there, I receive about 5 of these emails daily and I mostly ignore them. Since you've completed my program, you likely understand my approach better than a stranger. I am very careful about how I market. I never want to exploit people's desperation and I want to keep the messaging professional. I am willing to hear more from you. I would love to reach more people. Let me know the next step. ********************************************* So here's what I'm "hearing"... She gets hit up for marketing services daily and has ignored them. She responded to my email because I've gone through her program and gotten results. So there is some level of trust that I understand her approach to helping people. Her identity is wrapped around being professional at all times and she doesn't want to get a reputation for exploiting people's desperation just for more sales. She's open to hearing more but hesitant. She knows she's not reaching enough people and if she doesn't feel like its a scam, its giving her some hope that she can grow her membership ethically and honestly.

Got my first auction coming up with a crypto offer.. the guy did 200k on his last promo (not that long ago) and was open to the idea of an auction.. Setting up the pre-pre auction post now and we'll be sending it this week! fingers crossed!

Without being UBER salesly. Referrals, networking, and deals USED to take a bunch of time and energy. Now it doesn't... I don't have a social media. I don't have a BIG social media. I don't don't have a lot of the right people on my social media. I've heard it all. You know what though? The best time to plant a money tree was 20 years ago. The next best time to plant a money tree is TODAY. And building a solid social network takes a FRACTION of the time today because of the advantages A.I. gives us. IF you know what to do, who to vet, and share FUN posts. It's like CDOD but for social media. I'll prove it. I’m put’n together a little Zoom shindig next Tuesday... Where I share with a handful of folks how I've turn my Facebook profile into a coffee date/sales machine... By just push'n a few buttons and sharing FUN to read posts in about 15 minutes a day. Without having to rack my brain on WHAT to post or when. And yes, it works even if you have a small audience. But it'll also work if you have NO audience. Because I've used this to post on OTHER peoples social media for leads and coffee dates. All without throwing A.I. slop against the wall. Don't use Facebook a bunch? This works on LinkedIn, IG, the TikToks, X, and a gaggle of other social networks. Who wants deets? Comment "DEETS!" down below. 👇👇👇 ~ Tony P.S. I'm gonna even give folks my PRE-sell templates I give to hand raisers BEFORE I jump on a coffee date so they're already pre-sold or vetted before the call. That way you spend your time making sure you WANT to do the deal instead of talking to try and GET the deal.
