Warriors: IM Works! Just Got My First Sale!
I'm SOOO excited! I've been working on creating a new company for several months now and am FINALLY moving into pre-launch. The official launch is scheduled for May 2012.
I just received my first sale for my new company on Friday, Feb. 24! And the second one rolled in just under 24 hours later, Sat. Feb. 25!
I'm SOOOO excited!
Actually, my subject line is a bit off. I actually have made some money online before. But it was very little and VERY sporadic and spread out, mostly for freelance writing. It was never a lot and never consistent.
Like most of us, I've been online a long time, figuring it out. Mostly, I've dabbled, trying to figure out what exactly I want to do. I quickly found out I DON'T want to provide services since it's not scalable. I also got a thorough education in IM in the process and know how to do it.
Two years ago this month, I lost my job and discovered the woman who's become my mentor just 3 weeks later. She showed me a different business model that I fell in love with and I decided THAT'S what I want to do. I spent the rest of 2010 putting it together and writing/publishing my first book.
In 2011, I had to put everything on hold and actually get a job. :p Last year was very difficult and depressing, but I was determined that as soon as I could at least get a minimal job that would at least cover the basics, I'd get back to my business activities.
I got that job and after spending a few months catching up on my bills, I went back to work on my business. In December 2011, I received some unexpected funds and was able to sign up for a 6-month coaching program with my mentor for help with my launch.
I had a one-on-one session with my mentor last month and I just got back from a two-day mastermind with her and some other ladies this week.
Though people CAN order from me and I have a pre-launch special price, I'm primarily focused on growing my list and establishing a relationship with them in preparation for the official launch in May.
But on Friday I got my first order and the second one rolled in less than 24 hours later!
Mine is a membership business and I have a very specific marketing funnel. That is, I know exactly where I want my members to upgrade to once they join as a basic member. Also, I'm not just providing a service one day and then having to start all over from scratch the next day, providing services. I'm actually building business equity with every member I get, members who have a high likelihood of renewing every year. (My membership is annual, not monthly.)
It's working! Though I've made a little money before, this is much more exciting because I'm no longer dabbling, trying to figure out what I want to do online. This is "for real."
I'm SOOOO excited!
