"I've gotten so tremendously much from this course. It was totally worth my investment in time and money."I started this journey with low faith that I could launch and profit from selling anything. I had tried, first through creating a website and landing high on search pages, but no sales resulted. (I ultimately took my site down because it was costing me money, yet it didn’t work). I had tried unsuccessfully to learn about marketing principles and strategies, started but not completed several classes on making FB ads, funnels, and email campaigns, but these all felt too daunting and “not me”. I didn’t know what else to do, and then the email came into my inbox with the offer to be part of the Dopamine Button webinar. Everything changed. I joined EPM and discovered that I CAN market my product and bring my knowledge and experience to teachers, all for the benefit of children who struggle with reading. I developed confidence that this was not only possible, but probable. Chatterboxing changed me. It is an entirely different experience from any other marketing strategy, and even though I always start chatterboxing with a lot of anxiety, once I get chatting I enjoy the experience. I haven’t made any sales yet (Covid has devastated my microniche), but I have gained many potential customers, people I can reach out to again in the future, and feel very confident that I will be successful (once this Covid wave passes). My biggest win (through chatting with a lead): I’ve been given the opportunity to sign my course up with our state college system’s "Center for Schools." They are willing to offer graduate credits to teachers who take my course (at a higher price, of course, to cover the cost of credits and the extra work). Another huge gain for me is to have the opportunity to use Xperiencify for my course, and for future offerings. I love this platform! I just have to figure out how to get my own interactive activities to play (they need to be housed in a folder with supporting documents or they don’t work, and uploading folders isn’t an option at Xperiencify right now). I am working on this and may have found a way. We’re in the last week of EPM as I write this and while not impossible (I’m still chatterboxing), it is not likely that I will make 3 sales before we conclude . Circumstances (Covid) intervened, but circumstances are temporary and will ultimately pass. I have gotten so much confidence and knowledge through EPM that I am sure that I will profit from my own product, in time. The payoff financially may not have yet happened, but the payoff in my belief in myself is huge, and I refuse to be discouraged. I can’t get over how much I’ve learned and how supported I felt through this whole journey. Coach Uwe, Marisa (and side door coaching), my pod members, my accountability buddy, and the GIDF crew were all truly awesome. I appreciate you all so much! This course is the model for what a great course needs to be, and I will be using this model as I put together my courses, present and future (experiences, actions, coaching, worksheets, FaceBook groups, ALL OF IT!). Even without reaching my sales goal (yet), I certainly got my money’s worth from EPM. Thank you!
I started with low confidence that I could ever learn to market. I'd tried before and never made it through a marketing course. The ideas and concepts were beyond me, and it didn't seem to fit my personality to try to "sell" myself and my product. Then the offer to view the Dopamine Solution came through my email. The idea of "Mission Possible" and the Experience Product brought me to EPM. My experience with the lessons and the amazing support structure of EPM changed my level of confidence and the real game changer for me was Chatterboxing. I wasn't selling, I was helping. Unfortunately, I ran into Covid. Not personally, but it has devastated my microniche - teachers getting sick, students getting sick, schools closing, etc. No one is interested in taking courses right now because they are consumed with navigating the Covid landscape in their workplaces. But, I kept on Chatterboxing and finally made it all the way through to the sales pivot. I haven't yet made sale, but I got a lot of interest and a fabulous idea for my next experience product. Even though my microniche isn't signing up for courses right now, I am continuing to chat with people and set up conversations when I can. At present, I intend to delay the actual course start date until spring or maybe even summer when Covid related difficulties are abated. Teachers are interested in my offer but are just not interested in signing up for courses right now. I'm hearing that when things settle down again, they would be ready to sign on. I'm okay with that. It gives me more time to be really ready with my course and I can start setting goals for my next experience product. I'm thrilled! I was also given the opportunity (thank you Chatterboxing) to offer my course through our state college "Center for Schools" next summer. That should be a great boost. My microniche tends to like getting credits for courses and this gives them that option, at a somewhat higher pricepoint, but not unaffordable for most. I have so much more confidence that I can make this happen. I know Chatterboxing will work for me and I'm proud that I overcame my anxiety and continue to initiate conversations whenever I can. I also know that I will go back to the course videos and gradually complete the Supercharge track. I appreciate so much the continued availability of these lessons! Even though I didn't make a sale, I've gotten so tremendously much from this course. It was totally worth my investment in time and money. I knew early on that the I would not apply for the guarantee. There is so much value in EPM! This course was the model for what a great course should be. Thank you so much Marisa, Coach Uwe, Coaches Matthew and Emily (LOVED GIDF) and Murray! What an amazing 12 week journey!
