What if you could grow your email list by 1,200+ people in 90 days, without paid ads, daily posting, or another exhausting launch?
In today’s episode of Business Not As Usual, I’m sitting down with one of my very first business coaches (and one of the smartest humans I know), Dallas Travers, to talk about a game-changing collaboration strategy: bundles.
This episode is a wake-up call if you’ve been relying solely on Instagram to grow your audience and wondering why it feels so hard. Because spoiler alert: 50% of the clients from my last $70K launch came from collaborations, not because they found me on Instagram first.
Dallas breaks down:
-
What bundles are (and why they’re easier + higher ROI than summits)
-
How one client got 1,200+ subscribers and sold out her offer from one bundle
-
Why this works even if you don’t have a big list or a big name
-
The confidence and credibility boost you get just from hosting one
She also shares how she grew her list by nearly 5,000 people without posting on Instagram for 8 months and generated $42K in revenue from bundle leads alone.
It’s a juicy one you’ll DEFF wanna bookmark.
