The secret to overnight success

There are plenty of instances in the online world where it seems like someone hit it big overnight (especially in the age of influencing). All of a sudden, they’re everywhere. But here’s the real secret: that “overnight” success? It didn’t happen overnight. 

Success is in the little things — the steps we take every single day to get just a little closer to our goals. That’s what creates success.

We’re sharing more about what truly brings online success in today’s post from the EBA® blog vault, The Secret To Overnight Success in Blogging.

POWER MOVES

The new-and-improved evergreen model

At Elite Blog Academy®, we traditionally opened the doors to our flagship EBA program in March each year, which was the only way to get in. If you missed the enrollment deadline, you’d have to wait another year to get your chance to join.

This worked for a while, and we even had students setting their alarms to purchase once doors opened to ensure spots didn’t fill up before they had the chance to enroll. 

But basing your entire business around one (or possibly a few) weeks in the year, hoping your customers are ready to buy the same time you’ve decided to launch, is not only risky—it’s exhausting. 

To bring in consistent revenue, evergreen webinars opened up a new way to open enrollment year-round. And while evergreen webinars are great, there’s a sales system that’s even better. 

It’s called the Circuit Sales System. The system uses an on-demand training video, not a simulated webinar, to completely shift the way your customer thinks of their problem and shine a light on you being the one able to help them solve it. Nicki Krawczyk created the system to sell her copywriting course and 40x-ed her business in a little over two years of implementing it. 

It’s a sales and messaging system that creates genuine connections with your audience, and it not only drives consistent sales on autopilot but once it’s turned on, you’re done.

So what makes the Circuit Sales System so great?

• It allows you to reach more customers and have a greater impact. Since this funnel runs all the time, you aren’t limited to the number of people you can enroll in one week. The system includes nurture emails to keep your customers engaged so you can create genuine connections. And chances are more people will join you when they’re ready to commit. 

• You’ll spend less time selling and more time doing what you love. Once your circuit is on, it essentially runs itself. You will no longer have to spend 80 hours a week doing all the prep work for a live launch. Once you’ve done the work to set it up, it quietly runs (and makes money) even while you sleep.

• You’ll bring in consistent income on autopilot. The system is essentially a neverending funnel, so if they don’t take your initial offer they’ll still get the chance to join again every 90 days (or whatever interval you choose). While the first offer will be the lowest price they’ll ever see, this allows you to catch them when they’re ready to commit.

• It teaches you how to create content that sells. The Circuit Sales System course walks you through crafting and creating your training video so you can feel confident in the content. And since the system was created by someone who teaches copywriting, she knows her stuff!

MINDSET MATTERS

Take control over your fear

Creating goals for your business gives you the direction to growth and success. However, when persistent fears overshadow your aspirations, progress can feel impossible. That inner voice of doubt can hold you back, questioning your abilities and undermining your ambitions.

If you struggle with this, instead of writing down your goals today you should focus on writing down your fears.

There's magic in confronting your fears on paper; suddenly, they seem less daunting.

To gain control over your fears, follow these steps:

1. Identify specific fears: Jot down every fear that's slowing you down. Get real and specific about what's holding you back.

2. Analyze root causes: Explore why you're scared of certain things. Getting to the root of your fears can really help you tackle them better.

3. Challenge limiting beliefs: Ask yourself if your fears are really based on facts or just assumptions. Challenge yourself to see those negative beliefs in a new light.

4. Create an action plan: Take each fear and break it down into steps you can actually handle. Work out ways to tackle, dial down or get past them, one at a time.

5. Seek support and accountability: Talk about your fears with someone you trust, like a mentor, colleague or coach. Having someone to hold you accountable and cheer you on can really boost your determination.

By facing your fears directly, you can regain control and confidently move forward.

MARKETING FUN FACT

The first email was sent by Ray Tomlinson to himself in 1971. He reportedly said, “it was entirely forgettable and I have, therefore, forgotten it.” Little did he know, he was paving the way for email marketing, a key tool in our digital arsenals today.
