The conversation was theoretically about him licensing or selling my Paperless Home course. Yesterday, I did some research and thought he might also be a potential sales saver partner.
It was a really good conversation; he's a super nice guy; I let him have my PHS course for free to get his feedback; We'll have another conversation about the course and selling/licensing it in a few weeks. I also mentioned to him that I have partners who are helping folks close high-ticket offers.
This is what I learned about his offers on the call:
- He has a few low-ticket offers (<$150) and one high-ticket $5k program
- Max capacity for the $5k program is 5 people because it is very hands-on
- He does paid workshops ($79 per ticket, $129 for a VIP ticket) to get people into the $5k program and usually gets 20ish people into the workshops
- He usually sells 1 seat to the $5k program and was really interested in getting help selling the other 4 seats
- He's considering doing the workshops for free to get more attendees and, ultimately, more people Into his $5k program
- Because the $5k program isn't selling well, he is currently offering it for $500 to get more testimonials
- He has one other higher-end service that has been selling since 2013 - I didn't get the price or the details on it
The call was a little disjointed because we talked about the course and his offers (instead of just about saving sales for his business). This is what I think I should have asked him/found out on the call:
- The size of his email list
- The size of his membership group
- What it's costing him not to fill the other 4 seats in the $5k
- The $5k program runs for 3 months, which I think means he only sells it 4x/year, but I didn't ask if the cohorts overlap and can start at any time.
- The pricing and details about the other higher-end offer
My initial thoughts are that his $5k program is not a good candidate for a sales saver campaign because:
1 - It sounds like it is fairly new, and it is not selling well now
2 - The program maxes out at 5 seats
3 - If I did fill the other 4 seats for the $5k program and took $10k/50%, it kinda feels like taking some of his pie because of the limited number of seats
I'd appreciate any feedback - am I on the right track about what else I should've found out and his potential as a partner???
