This week, I’m sharing what really happens when you commit to consistent lead gen — how it quietly builds your reputation, expands your reach, and gets your name showing up in rooms you didn’t even know existed. This Week on the Get Paid Podcast: The invisible ripple effect of consistent lead gen How visibility opens doors long before you pitch yourself The moment my own ads led to an unexpected full-circle moment ...

Tess Masters: From an Ads Flop to a $50K Launch
The Get Paid Podcast: The Stark Reality of Entrepreneurship and Being Your Own Boss
Tess Masters thought she was wasting her investment in Get Paid Marketing. She couldn't run ads for an entire year, barely made our middle-of-the-night calls from Australia, and called herself our "worst client." Then she renewed anyway—and everything changed. Not because she attended more calls, but because of one conversation that gave her permission to believe something that transformed her selling. This Week on the Get Paid Podcast: Why watching other people get coached transformed her business The controversial positioning she was terrified to try (and what happened when she did) ...

The Get Paid Podcast: The Stark Reality of Entrepreneurship and Being Your Own Boss
What happens when your meditation podcast suddenly explodes overnight? Kelly Smith found out during the pandemic—and the aftermath wasn't what she expected. Kelly shares her journey from opening a yoga studio in a "one-bar, one-Walmart town" in Missouri to creating location-independent teacher training while raising two young kids. We dig into the money mindset blocks that plague the spiritual community, why she believes you shouldn't be afraid to be someone's "goat cheese," and how she handled the backlash when she started monetizing her free content.

The One Number that Gives You Control When Scaling
The Get Paid Podcast: The Stark Reality of Entrepreneurship and Being Your Own Boss
What if there were one number that could take you from hoping your marketing works to knowing exactly what's going to happen?

Once you know this number, you stop guessing and start making decisions like someone who actually controls their business growth.

Coaching: "I Can't Teach That - I'm Not an Expert"
The Get Paid Podcast: The Stark Reality of Entrepreneurship and Being Your Own Boss
What if your biggest hesitation about creating a bonus is actually the exact reason you should offer it? My Get Paid Marketing client was convinced she couldn't teach something to her students—until I showed her she was already 100 steps ahead of them. We dig into why expertise isn't about being perfect, and I push her toward a bonus idea that made her nervous for all the wrong reasons. This Week on the Get Paid Podcast: The bonus strategy that could change everything (even if you don't think you're "ready") Why your imposter syndrome might be costing you conversions How to know when...
info_outlineEver caught yourself saying, “I’ll get to ads… later, when I’m really ready”?
Claire hears that line all the time. And honestly? That "ready" moment rarely shows up.
But while you're waiting for the stars to align, you're missing out on what Claire calls the "stock market effect" of running ads: long-term, compounding growth that happens when your ads quietly work in the background, building your list and your revenue without requiring constant hustle.
In this solo episode, Claire shares a story about a brilliant business coach friend who’s been “almost ready” for years, plus how GPM clients like DL Sharon, Gina Knox, and Steph Crowder finally scaled faster once they stopped waiting and started running ads.
This Week on the Get Paid Podcast:
-
The real conversation Claire had (again) with a friend who’s been “just about to run ads” for years
-
Why ads are less like a launch strategy and more like investing in the stock market
-
How one client added $200K in a matter of weeks from cold traffic, plus high-ticket sales with no sales calls
-
What happened when Claire’s own campaign flopped, and how feedback from cold leads helped her fix it
-
How ads can keep your audience and revenue growing, even while you're offline or pivoting your business
