It’s true. I’m ditching the high-ticket course model. After 3 years of successfully selling my high-ticket (to me, that’s ~$1k+) signature course … … I’m over it.

info_outlineWhen it comes to growing an audience online, most people's brains instantly go to social media...
But guess what?
That is NOT the only (or even the best) way to gain a following!
You CAN grow a ginormous audience...
... WITHOUT showing up on video or stories or reels every day.
... WITHOUT coming up with endless piles of witty, engaging, content day in and day out.
... WITHOUT bouncing around pointing at words that pop up on your screen or dancing.
(And no shame, if you love that stuff, I just know it’s NOT for everyone!)
If you're interested in another way to grow your following, check out today's video where I share:
+ What the “treadmill effect” is and why you need to avoid it at all costs.
+ A DIFFERENT way of creating content that will transform the way you think about building an audience online.
+ ONE quick check to see if you’re missing out on this FREE way of getting more eyeballs on your brand.
