Why Legendary Marketer Launched a Confidence Challenge

Elevating Our Core: How Confidence Integrates with Marketing Mastery

At Legendary Marketer we don't just launch marketers...we launch leaders.

If you've caught wind of our latest move, you might be wondering: “Has Legendary Marketer thrown traditional marketing education out the window?” Especially with our new Confidence Challenge taking center stage. 

Is this the end of marketing as we know it?

That almost needs the DUH, DUH, DUH sound after it for full dramatic effects.  

We haven’t abandoned our core mission; we're amplifying it. 

Confidence isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s crucial. It’s the jet fuel for every strategy, tool, and tactic we teach.

Why the focus on confidence? Simple. We've observed a gap, a lot of brilliant minds with access to top-tier marketing knowledge, frozen by hesitation and doubt. What good is a playbook if you never run the plays?

This isn’t a pivot away from marketing education, it’s an enhancement. 

By integrating the Confidence Challenge, we're addressing the silent killer of potential: fear. 

We’re giving our students the keys to unlock not just doors of opportunity but to swing them open with authority.

A Strategy Rooted in Real Needs

The digital marketing landscape is not just about understanding complex tools and strategies, it's about executing them with certainty and impact. Without a solid foundation of confidence, even the most well-equipped marketers can find themselves hesitant to implement what they've learned. Our Confidence Challenge is designed to bridge this gap, ensuring that our students are not only skilled but also ready and able to lead and innovate.

Empowering Marketers, Enhancing Careers

Our goal is to enhance the effectiveness of our training by ensuring that every marketer we train is not only knowledgeable but also confident in applying that knowledge. This approach goes beyond traditional education by equipping our students to take decisive action, enhancing their impact in the marketing world.

We're not here to just throw skills at you, we're here to ensure you take what you learn, implement, and step into the best entrepreneur badass version of yourself. 

The Bottom Line

We are still the Legendary Marketer you trust to provide comprehensive marketing education. 

With the introduction of the Confidence Challenge, we are building on our commitment to deliver an education that empowers our students not just to learn but to lead. 

This new initiative is crafted to help our students break through the barriers that have held them back, enabling them to utilize their skills fully and confidently.

Are you ready to step up and redefine what it means to be a successful digital marketer and entrepreneur?

See how the Confidence Challenge can level up your own mindset and business!

The Marketing Genius Behind Jake Paul: Lessons We Can All Learn

The Marketing Genius Behind Jake Paul: Lessons We Can All Learn

The Marketing Genius Behind Jake Paul: Lessons We Can All Learn

With the big fight Friday night, there’s been alot of opinions being thrown around online about Jake Paul.

Well…if you are a marketer(or working towards becoming one), there are a ton we can observe and learn.

So put any negative troll thoughts aside (anyone that trolls only stays stuck), put on your marketing glasses because he’s doing a few things we can all learn and implement immediately. 

Picture this for me… a teenage Jake Paul, lip-syncing and dancing his heart out to a popular tune, no microphone in sight. He’s having fun, letting loose, and sharing it with the world. Years later, the clip resurfaces, and some haters take aim, trying to turn it into a punchline and endless memes poking fun at him. 

Here’s the clip…

Here’s the thing:

The video wasn’t cringy. (Maybe a little, that's why its amazing!)

Jake wasn’t ashamed then, and he’s not about to let the critics get under his skin now. 

Could you imagine if he QUIT because someone didn't like this clip when he was a teenager? 

Could you imagine if he let the worry and the “what ifs” control his actions? 

He would probably be in some office cubicle hating his life right now if he had…He would have let others BURY HIS POTENTIAL and DREAMS.

And that, my friends, is a lesson in boldness that every entrepreneur, whether you're a newbie or seasoned pro, needs to understand.

Jake Paul has made waves for many reasons, but the core of his success is simple: he’s consistently willing to take risks, stand out, and never back down from putting himself out there. 

Love him or hate him…as an entrepreneur you gotta have mad respect because his game is spot on. 

Back then, it was a fun, out of the box video that got him views and was at the infancy of his online presence. 

Today, it’s the same approach…

whether facing public criticism, entering the boxing ring, or launching a new venture. 

Jake has mastered the art of showing up and tuning out the noise.

And so can you.

Here’s what every entrepreneur, from fresh-faced newbies to seasoned marketers, can learn:

  1. Haters Gonna Hate, Marketers Gotta Create. The more you put yourself out there, the more you’ll encounter people who want to tear you down. But their opinions aren’t your business…your growth is. Jake’s commitment to his craft, regardless of public opinion, is exactly what it takes to succeed. And remember – he has build an audience of raving fans! Which also means a bigger target for those that aren't his target demographic. 
  2. Commitment to Boldness Never Ends. For seasoned entrepreneurs, this clip serves as a reminder: success is never the result of playing it safe or blending in. It’s about pushing the envelope, trying new things, and being bold. If you’ve reached a level of comfort, it’s time to shake things up again. Stay bold, think outside the box, and keep redefining your limits.
  3. Have Fun and Stand Proud. Let’s not overlook the most important part: teenage Jake wasn’t trying to be “cool.” He was having fun, being unapologetically himself, and sharing joy. When you approach your work this way, creating with passion, embracing authenticity, your audience will feel it. Genuine connection trumps perfection every time.

This viral clip isn’t just a moment from Jake Paul’s past, it’s a glimpse and reminder for every new entrepreneur that you MUST start, you MUST take action, you MUST not have a worry about what anyone else's opinion.

Whether it’s your first reel, a risky campaign, or a big leap in your strategy, never let the worry of what others might say or think keep you from taking action. 

In a world of critics…

Those willing to be bold and relentless are the ones who move forward.

So, what’s the takeaway? 

Post the video. 

Try the unconventional campaign. 

Be bold and have fun along the way. 

When you’re willing to show up unapologetically, the opinions of others fade into background noise.

Now, it’s your turn. 

What bold move have you been putting off because of fear? 

Take a page from Jake Paul’s playbook and give it everything you’ve got. 

Critics may come and go, but the fearless are the ones who make a mark and LAST online and in business.

Looking for more help with building rock solid confidence as you step into the online as a creator and digital marketer? Check out our new Confidence Challenge…it will blow your mind in what is revealed and the toolbox you’ll have to step into the greatest version of yourself.

Legendary Marketer’s 5-Minute Guide to Give Your Instagram Bio a Major Boost

Legendary Marketer’s 5-Minute Guide to Give Your Instagram Bio a Major Boost

Legendary Marketer’s 5-Minute Guide to Give Your Instagram Bio a Major Boost

Your Instagram profile is your digital handshake. And in a world where everyone’s scrolling like their life depends on it, you’ve got about two seconds to make that handshake memorable. Lucky for you, a killer profile doesn’t require an all-day overhaul. In just five minutes, you can add some serious oomph to your bio with a few clever updates.

Here’s how to make your profile stand out in a snap!

1. The Bio Statement That Tells It All

You’ve got 150 characters to convince someone that your profile is worth a follow…no pressure, right?

A sharp bio statement tells visitors right away what you’re all about, so they don’t have to guess.

  • Why This Matters: You want people to know instantly if you’re their kind of person. A clear bio statement helps your audience connect with you without playing a game of “What do they actually do?”
  • How to Do It: Think about who you help and how you do it. Keep it short, sweet, and packed with value.
  • Examples:
    • “Helping new marketers build online growth with confidence 🚀”
    • “Guiding busy professionals to build a healthier, balanced life 🌱”
    • “Empowering moms to turn passion projects into income streams.”
    • “Empowering women to attract genuine love with confidence 💕”

With one line, you’re giving people a reason to follow—and, yes, it’s really that simple.

2. Emojis: The Secret Sauce for Visual Appeal

Emojis aren’t just for spicing up your texts—they’re a quick way to make your bio easy on the eyes. But keep it classy, not chaotic. A few well-placed emojis can guide your reader’s eye and add a friendly vibe to your profile.

  • Why This Works: Emojis break up the text so it’s not just one big block. Plus, they give people a peek at your personality without a single extra word.
  • How to Do It: Pick 1-2 emojis per line to match what you’re saying, like 📚 for “Marketing Tips” or 🔥 for “Confidence Coaching.”
  • Example Bio:
    • “Helping aspiring entrepreneurs grow with confidence 🚀
      📚 Digital Marketing Tips | 🔥 Confidence Boosts
      Coffee lover ☕️ | Dog mom 🐾”
    • For a Dating Coach:
      “Helping women attract their ideal partner 💘
      💖 Confidence Tips | 💬 Dating Strategy
      Romantic at heart 🌹 | Chocolate addict 🍫”
    • For a Health Coach:
      “Helping busy people find a healthy balance 🌱
      🥗 Nutrition Tips | 💪 Fitness Coaching
      Smoothie enthusiast 🍓 | Nature lover 🌳”

That’s professional and personable without being cluttered.

Remember…as I always share…

Social media is meant to be social. Ya can't be too stuffy or salesy and you also can't be too casual. A nice balance is key. 

3. A Little Social Proof (or a Fun Fact!) Never Hurt

People love a little proof you know what you’re talking about. Got a follower count, client milestone, or a fun fact about yourself? Drop it in! This shows you’re trustworthy and human.

  • Why It Works: A quick stat or relatable detail makes people feel like they already know you—whether you’re a 10K-followers-and-growing marketer or a proud dog mom.
  • How to Do It: No big numbers? No worries. Try adding something fun about you to make people smile.
  • Examples:
    • “Trusted by 5K+ happy clients”
    • “Dog mom 🐾 | Coffee enthusiast ☕️ | Adventure junkie 🌍”
    • “20+ happy clients now in relationships” or “Hopeless romantic 🥂 | Bookworm 📚 | Netflix lover 🍿”
    • “Certified Nutritionist | Trusted by 500+ clients” or “Smoothie connoisseur 🍓 | Hiker 🥾 | Meal prep queen 🍲”

Instant personality points, and a reason for people to follow beyond the content you post.

4. The Power Move: A Strong Call-to-Action (CTA)

Here’s where you give people that gentle nudge to take the next step. Want them to download your free guide, check out your latest video, or book a spot in your upcoming workshop? Tell them! A quick CTA at the end of your bio will do the trick.

  • Why It Works: People like direction, so why not make it easy? A clear CTA makes it way more likely that they’ll click.
  • How to Do It: Keep it direct and make sure it aligns with whatever link you have in your bio.
  • Example CTA:
    • “⬇️ Grab my FREE guide to starting an online biz”
    • “🎉 Join my next workshop for newbie marketers!”
    • “⬇️ Get my FREE guide to finding genuine love”
    • “⬇️ Download my FREE meal prep checklist”

Whether it’s a freebie or a new blog post, this is where you lead them next.

And I want this to sink in…as a marketer, you should ONLY LEAD YOUR PROSPECT TO THE NEXT ACTION YOU WANT TO TAKE. This is a huge issue we see here at Legendary Marketer, just because another “marketer” has 20 links in their bio, doesn't mean you should. 

No Choices.

No Mystery.

No Options. 

Just the next step to take.

Putting It All Together for a Legendary Profile

When you’re finished, your bio should feel like a polished, welcoming invitation. Here’s the play-by-play:

  • Bio Statement: Tell visitors who you help and what you’re about—fast.
  • Emojis: Use a few to keep it visually appealing and friendly.
  • Social Proof or Fun Detail: A touch of trustworthiness or personality.
  • CTA: Give visitors a next step that points them to more value.

And that’s it! With just a few easy tweaks, you’ve taken your bio from “blah” to “wow,” and it only took five minutes.

How Digital Marketing Skills Saved My Business – And Why You Should Learn to Launch Online

How Digital Marketing Skills Saved My Business – And Why You Should Learn to Launch Online

How Digital Marketing Skills Saved My Business – And Why You Should Learn to Launch Online

Taking imperfect action is better than waiting for life to force your hand, and I learned this the hard way. When a crisis strikes, hesitation can cost you everything. 

This week, we witnessed the devastation brought by back-to-back hurricanes in parts of Florida. Homes, businesses, and entire livelihoods were uprooted in a matter of hours. 

It’s a stark reminder that tomorrow is never promised. 

Listening to Dave share the heartache sweeping his hometown, I couldn’t help but recall a moment of my own: the day we had just one hour’s notice.

Our business was ordered to close immediately due to COVID-19.

I remember the panic in my husband’s voice…

How will we pay the bills? We still owed every dollar on the building, insurance, all the expenses of doing business…yet we couldn't do business.

There was no word on when we might reopen, and it felt like everything we had built was slipping away instantly. 

But I refused to let that be our reality. 

If you know me, you know that if I’m going down…

I’m going down swinging.

There had to be another way, another option…and luckily, I had one…

What Did I do?

Luckily, I had already invested time, energy, and money into something that would ultimately save us…

digital marketing.

2 years prior, I had joined a mastermind group dedicated to business owners like me, focused on implementing online marketing. At the time, I was still a part of this group. Plus I was now to a point where I was working with clients outside of our brick-and-mortar business.

The skills were there, waiting for the moment I needed them most.

That night, I looked at my husband and said, “We may not be able to open our physical doors, but we can open a virtual one.”

I stayed up until the early hours of the morning, building an online membership area and a virtual class schedule.

Our students, who were on monthly tuition, suddenly had access to new online classes, workouts, and perhaps most importantly, connection with their favorite coaches and classmates during an uncertain and stressful time.

We had just one day without classes.

Our physical doors were closed for over three months, but our virtual doors were closed for only a single day.

What did that decision do for us?

  • It kept our employees working, running classes through Zoom from their homes.
  • It kept the kids active and connected, even while stuck at home.
  • We were able to pay all our building rent on a 12k sq ft building that we still owed each month. (A lease our landlord was not willing to budge on)
  • And we retained 88% of our enrollment during the shutdown.

All because I had previously learned digital marketing.

Someone once said “We were lucky.”

But luck had nothing to do with it, it was from preparation, follow thru, and consistency that when a situation we never imagined, the skills would come into play.

Dave Sharpe, our CEO here at Legendary Marketer, said it best this week:  YOU MUST GET VIRTUAL.

He too, in the middle of the hurricane aftermath, can continue to keep the doors open, stay focused on business because here at Legendary Marketer we're virtual. 

You never know when a wrench is going to get thrown into your plans.

I fell in love with marketing long before that day, but that experience confirmed my belief…

Everyone should learn digital skills, open their own virtual doors, and stop relying on “what ifs” to never happen to them.

Action Is Key

Waiting for the “right time” or for life to force your hand is a risk you don’t want to take.

Start where you are, with what you have, and learn as you go.

The key is to move forward before a crisis demands it.

Don’t wait for a storm to hit before you start building. Whether it's taking a first step, a new step, a start over step, and just continuing to step – ACTION IS KEY. 

The businesses like mine who had digital marketing experience survived the pandemic. Those that didn't want to grow into the online space…unfortunately did not make it through. 

It all came back to a commitment to ongoing growth in skills and knowledge. It's the same for you, for all of us. 

The day we stop learning…(or asking for guidance and advice)

The day we assume nothing bad could happen…

Is the day shit will absolutely hit the fan. 

And the coolest thing of all, is here at Legendary Marketer, Dave built an entire support and education system to help you learn and implement digital marketing before you ever feel forced into change.

So take advantage of what you have access to – take the challenge, jump on support calls, reach out in the community and do what you need to in order to keep moving forward.

How to Share Your Story as a Marketer: It’s Not Your Life Resume

How to Share Your Story as a Marketer: It’s Not Your Life Resume

How to Share Your Story as a Marketer: It’s Not Your Life Resume

“Share your story.” Yep, we’ve all heard it a million times in the online marketing world.

But let’s be real if you’re new to the online space, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking…

“Wait, what story? My life is pretty normal… do I even have a story?”

Spoiler alert: You absolutely do. And guess what? Your story isn’t supposed to be a resume. You’re not here to give an autobiography in one reel or post. No one wants to hear your life story in a single sitting (except maybe your grandma).

What Does “Share Your Story” Really Mean?

Sharing your story is about connecting. It’s not about crafting an epic novel; it’s about revealing relatable, real-life moments that will click with your ideal audience. It could be a win, a struggle, a funny mishap, or a lesson learned. These moments sprinkle your personality into your content—whether you’re witty, funny, serious, or laid-back, the way you share those moments gives your audience a taste of who you are.

“But I Shared My Story Last Week, So Now What?”

I hear this all the time: “I shared my story in a reel last week, now what do I talk about?” Here's the thing—sharing your story isn’t a one-and-done deal. It’s not a one-time confession where you spill your guts and then sit there awkwardly wondering what to do next. It’s an ongoing conversation. In fact, your “story” is made up of many smaller stories: bite-sized, relatable experiences that keep the connection alive.

Think about real life. When you meet a friend, you don’t just dump your whole life story on them at once, right? (If you do… maybe rethink that strategy.) You build friendships through shared experiences, common interests, and little anecdotes here and there.

Online, it’s the same thing. You’re not trying to sell yourself—you’re just making friends, but virtually. Your audience is like that friend you grab coffee with, chat about the highs and lows, and swap advice or support. Over time, you build that connection and trust. THIS is what leads to your audience trusting your recommendations and ultimately clicking your link. 

How to Start Sharing Your Story

  1. Pick Relatable Moments
    Don’t overthink it. Start small. Your audience doesn’t need to hear about your entire childhood. Instead, share moments that tie into your journey as a marketer, entrepreneur, or even just a regular human being who has dreams, struggles, and triumphs. Did you struggle to get started in your business? Share that. Did you have a win, no matter how small? Share that too. We share moments to relate to our ideal audience. (Remember it's about them)
  2. Be Consistent, Not Comprehensive
    You don’t need to tell the whole story at once. Share in pieces. Maybe today, you talk about the fear of starting something new. Next week, you talk about that one time everything fell apart—and how you bounced back. Keep it consistent, but spread it out.
  3. Inject Your Personality
    Your story isn’t just what you say; it’s how you say it. Are you funny? Great, throw in some humor. More serious? Lean into that tone. The key is to show up as yourself. People connect with realness, not perfection.
  4. Talk to One Person, Not the Whole World
    I share this all the time, because it's that important. Imagine you’re having a one-on-one conversation with someone who just happens to be a couple of steps behind you. You don’t have to be the expert with all the answers. You just need to be someone who’s a little further along the path and can offer some insight. Speak to that person. This keeps your content relatable and approachable. We cover this right in day 5 of the Learn Launch Lead Challenge.
  5. Share Your Struggles, Not Just Wins
    Wins are great and all, but struggles? Those build connection. Everyone loves an underdog, so don’t be afraid to share when things aren’t picture-perfect. Show the messy middle…how you’re figuring it out as you go. Your audience will appreciate your honesty and be more likely to stick around because not only do they see that YOU get what they are dealing with, you also have a way through it. (Once again, remember it's about THEM.) 

 

Remember, You’re Not Applying for Friendship

Let’s circle back to the whole “life resume” thing. In real life, when you meet someone new, you don’t hand them a detailed list of your life’s achievements and ask if they want to be your friend.

That’d be weird, right?

So why are so many of us doing that online? Stop trying to prove yourself or sell your life story. Instead, focus on sharing pieces of your journey, pieces that your ideal audience can see themselves in.

Your story is about creating connections, not closing deals. It’s about being relatable, approachable, and, most importantly, real.

Final Thought: You Deserve to Be Heard

One last tip? Share from a place of confidence.

Your story, however big or small you think it is, deserves to be heard. You don’t need to have a jaw-dropping rags-to-riches tale to make an impact. Just share what you’ve learned, how you’ve grown, and what you’re still figuring out. You don’t need to be an expert, but you do need to believe in the value of your voice.

Now get out there, start sharing your story one piece at a time, and watch how your audience starts connecting with the real you.

SNEAK Your Side Hustle Into Everyday Life

SNEAK Your Side Hustle Into Everyday Life

SNEAK Your Side Hustle Into Everyday Life - Tips To Implement Immediately

Ever feel like you're too busy to work on your business? 

Between family, work, and everything else, finding hours of uninterrupted time can feel impossible. 

But you don’t need hours to make progress. 

You can actually build and grow your business in the small cracks of your day!

Yes, those everyday moments like waiting in line for coffee, sitting in the car at school pick-up, or winding down after dinner are golden opportunities to make big moves with your marketing. 

And the best part? 

You don’t need to spend hours working at a time. 

It’s about using what you’ve got, when you’ve got it.

And if you're negative voice kicks in with “but I don't have any followers” or “I can't do this…” or “I can't do that….” 

STOP.

You can do ALL of the below. I don't care if you have 0, 2, 5 or 5000 followers… you won't get better at marketing until you put it into action. 

So get going with these tips below. 

Here’s how you can start making the most of those small windows of opportunity:

1. Morning Coffee Break – Share a Quick Story!

You’ve brewed your coffee, and the day is just getting started. Take five minutes to hop on Instagram or Facebook and share a story with your audience. It could be something behind-the-scenes, a quick win from the day before, or even just a snapshot of your morning routine. People love authenticity – and a story like this keeps your audience engaged and connected to you.

2. Waiting at Your Kid’s Practice – GO LIVE!

You’re sitting in the car while your kid’s at practice, the perfect opportunity to go live on social media. No need to overthink it! Just hit that “Go Live” button and start talking. Share a bit about your journey, offer a tip, or answer a question from your audience. Going live creates real-time connection, and your followers will love the authenticity of catching you in the moment.

3. Making Dinner or Doing Chores – Hit Record for B-Roll

We all have to cook, clean, or do some sort of chore during the day. Why not use that time to capture some behind-the-scenes content? Set your phone up on the counter or a shelf and hit record while you’re working. You can use that B-roll later for videos, overlay it with tips, or add a motivational quote. It’s easy content that requires zero extra effort.

4. Lunch Break – Check Your Insights

Use your lunch break to check in on your social media or email insights. Spend five minutes looking at which posts are performing well and where you’re getting the most engagement. Use that information to guide your content for the next day. Knowing what works will save you time in the long run, and it’ll help you make smarter marketing decisions.

5. Waiting in School Pick Up Line – Record a Quick Video

Next time you’re standing in line waiting to pick up the kids, use that time to record a quick video. It doesn’t have to be polished or perfect – just whip out your phone, hit record, and share a tip, thought, or something fun with your audience. People love seeing unfiltered, spontaneous moments.

6. Commercial Break – Refresh Your Bio

While you’re watching TV, use those commercial breaks to refresh your social media bio. Take a few minutes to update it with your latest offer, a milestone you’ve hit, or something fun and fresh. A small tweak can go a long way in keeping your profile relevant and interesting to new and existing followers.

7. After Dinner – Plan Tomorrow’s Content

Once dinner is done and you’ve got a few minutes to relax, take five of those minutes to plan out tomorrow’s content. Whether it’s a helpful tip, a funny meme, or a quick personal story, jot it down so you’re ready to post the next day. This small effort ensures that you’ll wake up prepared and ready to engage your audience with zero stress.

8. Post-Workout – Repost Old Content With A Small Adjustment

After a workout, while you’re cooling down, take a quick look at your old content. Find a post that performed well and make a small adjustment and repost. You don’t always have to create something new – re-sharing content can help you reach a new audience, continue to build trust with your current audience, and drive fresh engagement without the extra work.

9. Before Bed – Turn a Post into an Email

As you wind down for the night, take one of your recent social media posts and repurpose it into an email. Add it to your automation sequence so it goes out to your subscribers. This is a quick way to create an extra touchpoint with your audience, helping you stay top of mind, even while you’re off the clock. Remember each piece of content SHOULD have some value in it – right? That's the same value to share in an email. 

Making the Most of Your Day

The secret to growing your business isn’t about finding huge chunks of time. 

It’s about using the small moments wisely. 

Whether you’re waiting for your kid at practice, catching up on chores, or enjoying a coffee break, an extra 30 mins before bed, 20 mins before you head to work in the morning…there’s always a way to move the needle in your business.

By taking these quick actions, you’ll not only build momentum, but you’ll also keep your audience engaged and excited about what you’re doing. 

So next time you find yourself with a few spare minutes…

Remember that’s your business-building moment.

Every small step adds up to something big.

Real Talk From Legendary Marketer

Real Talk From Legendary Marketer

How To Stop Sitting On The Sidelines And START Building Your Future

It's Time For Some Real Talk From Legendary Marketer

Why You Need to Stop Sitting on the Sidelines and Start Building Your Future.

Let’s have some real talk.

You want more—more income, more freedom, more time, more peace. You want it all… just not more work. And some of you have already taken action. But for others, you’re still sitting on the sidelines, watching and waiting.

So let’s have a real conversation about how YOU can GET WHAT YOU WANT.

Imagine this: You’re working on your own terms, spending your days doing something you’re genuinely passionate about, and you’ve got the freedom to be there for the moments that matter most. Whether it’s your kid’s school play on a Tuesday morning or taking a spontaneous trip just because you can.

Sounds like a dream, right? But it’s not just a dream. It’s the reality that can happen when you commit to learning, launching, and becoming a successful digital marketer.

BUT HOW?

You might be thinking, “I can’t connect the dots. It all seems too distant, too many steps ahead.” It’s easier to convince yourself that it’s not real, that it’s not possible. But seriously, stop the negative talk. You’re thinking too small, too short-term.

THAT’S WHAT’S KEEPING YOU STUCK.

Please realize—it’s already been proven possible to create a thriving side hustle (or main hustle) for many through programs like Legendary Marketer, so WHY CAN’T YOU? Just look at the countless success stories. Since 2017, David Sharpe, CEO of Legendary Marketer, has been helping thousands of people learn digital marketing and launch their own online businesses. This isn’t a fad. What we do here at Legendary Marketer is nothing short of a leadership factory.

Now, I’m not going to sugarcoat it. This journey isn’t an overnight success story. Money does NOT fall from trees. So get out of that way of thinking.

It’s not about hopping from one shiny object to the next or collecting courses without ever diving deep into any of them. It’s about digging in, squeezing every bit of knowledge and value out of what you have, and applying it like your future depends on it…because it does.

It’s about taking the next daily step that’s right in front of you.

The Worry. The Wondering. The Questioning.

These emotions? They’re all part of the ride. They hit hard, especially when you’re starting out and stepping into the unknown. I felt them too. I remember family members asking if what I was doing was a “scam” (insert eye roll)—yeah, for real. At the time, it stung because I didn’t have the “proof” they wanted to see.

I was just starting out, no success story to back me up. But here’s the thing—no one can show “proof” of what they’ve accomplished if they haven’t started yet. It’s the most backward way of thinking. It’s like asking a freshman in college for proof of where they’ll be and what they’ll be making six years from now. It’s DUMB.

You and I both know success doesn’t just land in your lap; you have to go out and create it.

I was chasing everyone else’s approval and forgot the only one that mattered was my own. 💯

I realized those loved ones weren’t speaking out of love or care for me; they were speaking from a place loaded with misinformation, led by their own limiting beliefs.

If you’re in that same space right now, questioning if it’s all worth it, let me tell you—it absolutely is. But it’s not going to happen if you keep hesitating or if you keep jumping from one thing to another, hoping the next “guru” will be the magic bullet.

You also won’t see any growth if your messaging is so watered down to avoid upsetting anyone that you end up reaching no one at all.

YES, go back and read that again.

So what does taking daily action into the unknown look like?

Well, for me today…

It means never missing any of my kids' moments—big or small.
It means freedom to travel at the drop of a hat when a loved one is in need.
It revealed a new version of myself that is unrecognizable to the person I was 15 years ago. (And it’s absolutely beautiful.)

I’ve surrounded myself with people who share that same purpose, that same hunger for life, and that same desire to savor every single moment. I’ve seen countless students of Legendary Marketer go on and do the same.

This is what you’re building right now. This is what’s at stake.

It’s not just about making money… it’s about designing the life you want, with the people you want in it. Although it doesn’t feel like it, you’re in the sweet, beautiful beginning stages of something that could change everything.

And when you stick with it, when you really commit…

Those people, freedoms, joys, and moments you haven’t even imagined yet? They’ll start to show up in ways you never expected.

So to any naysayers out there…

I wave to you this week… from a cruise ship… surrounded by other marketers… others who have committed their energy and consistency to building something of their own for years.

Digital marketers with David Sharpe, CEO Legendary Marketer

Entrepreneurs and digital marketers who know what it means to dig in and show up for their business and goals every day. People who know that life is just sweeter when you can enjoy every last drop and LIVE IT—without giving two cares about what anyone else thinks.

They don’t wait for someone else to decide when they’ll be happy, make a change, or give them permission to do something for themselves. Not these people. And not you.

Your Future Self

Your future self is waiting for you to take the action needed today. Your future tribe, your future colleagues and friends, your future freedom just need you to commit to action now.

So… get back into the challenge, book your calls, go to your live support sessions, ask the questions, post the reels, post what’s sitting in your drafts, write the emails, and forget the naysayers. Just wave with a smile as you continue to level up and they stay stuck.

As always… Stay Legendary.
Your future self will thank you.

Why “Doing It Scared” Might Be Holding You Back And What to Do Instead

Why "Doing It Scared" Might Be Holding You Back And What to Do Instead

Why "Doing It Scared" Might Be Holding You Back And What to Do Instead

We’ve all heard it before.

“Do it scared.”

It’s almost a mantra in the entrepreneurial world, something we tell ourselves to push through the tough moments. 

Heck, I’ve said it so many times I’ve lost count. 

But you know what? 

The more I think about it, the more I realize that telling ourselves to “do it scared” keeps us right there…in a state of fear.

Think about it. 

When you hear “scared,” what comes to mind? 

A frightened kitten hiding in the corner? 

A shiver running down your spine? 

It’s almost like we’re giving ourselves permission to be stuck in those negative emotions, instead of breaking free from them.

Sure, they’re going to be moments when you feel like your stomach is doing backflips, when fear grips you tight. 

But what if we flipped the script? 

What if, instead of doing it scared, we decided to be BRAVE?

Just saying it—“I’m going to be brave”—makes me stand a little taller. 

It’s like flipping a switch from “I’m about to survive this” to “I’m about to OWN this.” 

When you tell yourself to be brave, suddenly, you’re the hero in your own story. 

You’re stepping into something unknown, sure, but you’re doing it with purpose, with excitement, with a sense of, “HECK YEAH, let’s do this!”

I don't want you to just survive…I want you to thrive. 

The next time you’re feeling that knot in your stomach, or that nervousness creeping in before hitting post, or that anxiety before a big Zoom call…try this. 

Look yourself in the mirror and say, “I am brave.” 

Let that empowering feeling wash over you.

And repeat it as much as you need. 

Remember how amazing you are. 

As Friday's guest shared, this is not difficult..it's just unfamiliar.

So BE BRAVE AS YOU STEP INTO WHAT's UNFAMILIAR. 

Got doubts about launching your online business? 

You are brave.

Worried about what others might think? 

You are brave.

Following a path that feels uncertain, confusing, or overwhelming? 

You are brave.

Because here’s the thing…if you’re reading this right now, you’ve already shown bravery. 

Whether you’re 22, 44, 67, or 91, you’ve taken action towards learning and launching an online business. 

You’ve already stepped into the unknown.

Now, keep taking those brave steps, every single day.

You’re worthy of chasing your dreams. 

You’re worthy of turning those dreams into targets. 

You’re worthy of taking action…and seeing it pay off.

And yes, you can do it all because…

You are absolutely brave.

Keep uncovering the badass that you are.

As always…

Stay Legendary,
JoAnn

Taking The Leap From Learner To Marketer

Always working too much, Amanda Vollmer began to realize she felt like she was never taking a break. On every vacation she was always doing something for work and never found          the time to be able to be fully present for her family because of that. She knew she needed to change that part of her life and began searching online for a solution. She found Legendary Marketer and the 15 Day Business Builder Challenge and decided to give it a try.

 

Prior to Legendary Marketer, Amanada didn’t know what affiliate marketing was. Despite being new at it she decided to get started with it anyway. Continuing on with solely being a mortgage agent was draining her with a 60+ weekly schedule after 20 years. Despite not having much technological knowledge, she went all in with Legendary because she could see how it had the potential to change her life.

 

From Learning To Doing  

 

Through Legendary Marketer Amanda discovered the Legendary community and Facebook group and was finding people that started out just like she had that had built their own businesses. She was able to start posting her content online and felt ready to get started through the encouragement of her peers in the community.

 

Amanda decided to just put her content out there, no matter how she felt about it or what it looked like. She kept hearing from the community to just start and worry about the rest after but kept giving herself excuses. Finally she made the decision to just start her business and she never looked back.

 

Just starting when you first start out with your business is the key part of launching. So many people wait for what they think is the right moment to post their first piece of content, that everything has to be just right. The most important part of starting your affiliate marketing business is to truly just start posting content online.

 

Posting, Not Perfecting

 

Before launching her business, Amanda could’ve probably taken around 50 videos in preparation to post her first one. She focused so much on the perfection of her content instead of just getting it out there. She felt robotic with each take, unable to feel genuine in her video because they just weren’t natural.

 

Amanda relaxed and just went with being herself in her content. She spoke to her camera like it was a friend or a client. “If the camera becomes somebody that needs my help vs me trying to sell something it just comes across so much more genuine,” Amanda said in her interview with Wake Up Legendary. 

 

Remaining authentic and being yourself is such an important part of your online business because that’s how you stay connected with your audience. Your audience will want to view your content and trust you more when you’re being yourself on camera and not pretending to be someone you're not. 

Revisiting Marketing Education

 

Amanda revisits her education through Legendary often. She finds herself going through the 15 Day Challenge over again because new content is added and it’s important to her to stay up to stay knowledgeable about the new ways she can help her business grow. 

 

The internet is always changing and so is affiliate marketing. Staying updated with Legendary’s  education will help guide your business in the right direction and give you more knowledge about affiliate marketing than you ever thought you’d have. “If you expect to just look at it once and know all the things you’re doing wrong because you're going to hear different things every time you listen to it,” Amanda said. 

 

The best way to get plugged back into the marketing world is to revisit your education and continue to try new things with your business. You may discover something new you didn’t hear before that will change your business for the better. Diving right into posting instead of waiting to perfect your content is not going to help you progress. Just start and see where it takes you!

Every Entrepreneur Needs GRIT

Every Entrepreneur Needs GRIT

Every Entrepreneur Needs GRIT

Let’s face it, entrepreneurship can sometimes feel like you're juggling flaming swords while riding a unicycle.

There are moments it seems easier to just QUIT.

But you are better than that. 

Buckle up because today, we’re talking about something that every entrepreneur needs: GRIT.

What’s GRIT, Anyway?

The first time I heard this term was at a mastermind I attended 12 years ago,  it sounded like a bunch of nasty dirt…why the heck would I need that?

Yes I had heard the term, but as I listened to this business owner talk about GRIT…I realized how absolutely crucial it was. 

I needed it.  

I wanted it.

Crap…I already had it, but what more can I do. 

This word has recently come back up in our own community and it would be a disservice to you for me not to speak on it more. 

GRIT is that relentless fire in your belly, the unyielding determination to keep pushing forward even when the going gets tough. 

It's not about talent or luck.

It's about guts, resilience, and a stubborn refusal to give up. 

Think of GRIT as your secret weapon, your ace up the sleeve that says, “Hey, world, I’m here to stay!”

As Friday’s guest on Wake Up Legendary shared…he listened to Dave’s Millionaire Mindset Audio and now has a post-it note that he reads every day…”I will outlast everyone.”

You see, building something from scratch isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. 

There will be days when you feel like banging your head against the wall, wondering if it’s all worth it. 

I'm here to remind you…

 It ABSOLUTELY IS! 

But only if you’ve got the GRIT to push through those tough times. 

Entrepreneurs need GRIT to:

  • Bounce Back from Failures: Every setback is a setup for a comeback. With GRIT, you don’t stay down; you get up, dust yourself off, and charge forward.
  • Stay Focused: Distractions are everywhere. GRIT keeps your eyes on the prize, no matter what shiny object tries to lure you away.
  • Keep the Passion Alive: When the initial excitement wears off, GRIT keeps the flame burning, driving you to continue even when the novelty fades.

You’re probably thinking, “Alright, I’m sold. But how do I get this magical GRIT?” 

Here’s some tips:

  1. Set Clear Goals: Know what you want, and make a plan to get there. Clarity fuels GRIT.
  2. Embrace Challenges: See obstacles as opportunities to grow, not roadblocks.
  3. Stay Persistent: Consistency is key. Show up every day, even when it’s tough.
  4. Cultivate a Positive Mindset: Believe in yourself and your mission. Positivity is a GRIT amplifier.
  5. Surround Yourself with the Right People: Connect with fellow warriors who inspire and support you.

PLUS, it’s a heck of alot easier to understand and embrace this concept when you hear others share their stories of GRIT.

Thursday and Friday’s episodes of Wake Up Legendary dove deep into GRIT. 

They are absolutely worth a re-watch, listen. 

Remember, GRIT isn’t just a trait, it’s not something you’re born with.

You gotta work at it. 

It’s about showing up, giving your best, and never backing down. 

You’ve got what it takes to be legendary—so let’s make it happen.

As Always…Stay Gritty…Stay Legendary.

Overcoming Square One

Overcoming Square One

Actionable Tips for Digital Marketers To Get Unstuck Today

Overcoming Square One: Actionable Tips for Digital Marketers To Get Unstuck Today

You and I both know social media consumes much of our daily lives, it’s easy to find ourselves stuck in a cycle of comparison and inaction. If you feel like you're constantly at square one, unable to make progress in your digital marketing journey, you're not alone. 

Today we’re going to delve into an inspiring story of someone who managed to break free from this cycle and turn their life around, and create real change in their life. Plus, we’'ll share actionable tips to help you get unstuck and start making real progress today.

From Scrolling to Strategy

Imagine being so engrossed in social media that it feels like you’re living through other people’s lives. 

This is how Gwen felt…scrolling endlessly, feeling a temporary relief by comparing her life to others. She shared in her interview that she was in a financial rut, and social media was a distraction rather than a solution. 

Sound familiar? Many can relate. 

However, a significant change came with a powerful realization: “Day one or one day? I choose day one.”

This mindset shift marked the beginning of a brand and business that is now, 14 months later…thriving.

The goal was clear…to spend more time with family. 

With a husband working tirelessly as a firefighter and carpenter, time was a precious commodity. To reclaim this time, big changes were needed to get unstuck. 

Tip #1: Eliminating Distractions

The first step was to eliminate the biggest distraction…social media. I know, how does a digital marketer who uses social media every single day, remove social media as a distraction? 

Gwen didn’t just cut back, she started fresh with a new social media account dedicated solely to their goals. No more mindless scrolling, no more getting lost in other people’s lives. She unfollowed a ton and stayed focused on producing INSTEAD OF CONSUMING. Gwen focused on understanding how to create her own voice in the digital space and stopped worrying about everyone else’s voice.

This approach absolutely requires discipline and a laser-focused mindset. Gwen avoided following others and put on the metaphorical blinders, ensuring no distractions could derail her progress. This commitment to focused action is a crucial lesson for anyone looking to get unstuck and create change. 

Tip #2:  Balance Between Learning and Action

It’s crucial to realize the balance between learning and action. It’s easy to fall into the trap of endless consumption—watching videos, reading articles, and attending webinars without implementing the knowledge gained. However, progress comes from action.

On the flip side, taking mindless action without any knowledge behind it will not get your business growing either. There is a balance between the two and it’s important to maintain that balance daily. 

The strategy for Gwen was simple yet effective. She dedicated specific times each day to learning and implementing. For Gwen, this meant two hours a day—one in the morning and one at night. This structured approach ensured consistent progress, turning theoretical knowledge into practical results. You may not have 2 hours a day to commit to your growth, education, and business. But it’s crucial to find what time you do have, and commit to it daily. 

Tip #3: Resourcefulness Over Resources

One of the most significant obstacles people face is the belief that they lack the necessary resources to succeed. However, as highlighted in this interview, resourcefulness trumps resources. Many people already have what they need to start; they just need to utilize it effectively.

Buying courses or joining programs is a good start, but the real magic happens when you dive into the material, learn it thoroughly, and apply it. Not just buying course after course, but actually consuming and utilizing the course and information you do have access to. The key takeaway here is to be proactive and resourceful with what you have.

Tip #4: Overcome the Addiction to Struggle

Many people are addicted to the struggle, constantly seeking the next big thing or magical solution while ignoring the resources they already possess. Which keeps us STUCK. The true path forward lies in gathering insights, learning from experiences, and taking informed actions. Learning and launching your own online business is not about finding a secret formula or a shortcut to avoid the work but about consistently making progress and learning from every step…and then celebrating all the small wins.

Hear all these tips straight from Dave and Gwen – watch the full clip from the interview included.

You can also check the entire interview right here: WATCH IT NOW

Remember, it’s about choosing “day one” and taking that first step today.

Overcoming square one is possible for everyone, including you. 

With focused action, balanced learning, and resourcefulness, you can break free from the cycle of inaction. 🚀💪

The Real Scam You’re Falling For

The Real Scam You're Falling For

The Real Scam You're Falling For

Ahhhh summer time…

family, friends, sun, fire pits, fire flies, water, and maybe some late nights. 

A changed schedule and time away… 

The end of summer time holiday weekends give us those Sunday scaries the most…

Tomorrow we go back to reality.

We loved our break…we want more of it.

It felt easy.

You didn't have to do much of any work. 

You may have even let the work on your education and business slide….

So let’s reflect for a second. (Plus hear from Dave himself on this topic and the real scam in your life.)

Were those around you sharing their big goals, or was it more about what they were unhappy about, feeling wronged, gossiping, and spreading negativity?

This is the time of year many people slowly seep away from their goals and their business. 

And then they end up saying things like, “Summer got away from me,” “Life took over,” or “There was so much going on.”

But the real reason? 

When you take that break, it can be harder to come back. 

Why? 

Because for a moment or two, you didn't do anything. 

It felt safe. 

But it's also the summer time lie that's telling you that work in any capacity isn't required. 

It's focused on the result. 

And that focus will screw you every. single. time.

“Fall in love with the work…” 

Dave shared this on Wednesday's episode of Wake Up Legendary. 

If you're only focused on the endgame, you're setting yourself up for disappointment when things don’t go as planned.

You don't need to grind like a psycho, but you are going after something bigger, something new, and something totally worth the work…

Your own business, your time freedom. 

Falling in love with the work means embracing the daily actions and finding joy in the process. 

It’s about setting small goals…

staying curious…

and stop making excuses. 

Challenges will come.

It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking, “Why bother? Others are doing it better,” or “Who's going to listen to me?” 

These thoughts are the real scam. Yes…READ THAT AGAIN. 

They scam you out of your own potential.

So, as you enjoy the rest of your summer, remember to fall in love with the work. 

Celebrate the small wins, embrace the challenges, and keep pushing forward. Your goals are worth it, and so are you.

Dive into your education.

Put into practice what you're learning.

Let’s make the rest of this summer count.

Keep loving the work, and the results will follow.

As always…

Stay Legendary,
JoAnn

Finding Motivation Through Mindset In Your Online Business

Alexa Winkiwiz is a former kindergarten teacher. Once she had her third child she knew that something in her life had to change. She wanted to be able to spend more time at home with her children and less time with other people’s children. Childcare was expensive and she began to run out of options. 

 

When she found Legendary Marketer, everything in her life changed. She realized this would be a business where she could create her own schedule and do work on her own time. She started dedicating herself to the course and the learning and would go through the education and content when her kids would go to bed. She kept showing up because there was something inside her that was pulling her to want to keep going. 

Having Awareness In Your Business

 

Something that has really changed for Alexa has been her amount of awareness she has had online in her business. Since starting online she has grown  to be more aware of how she shows up online and to her followers. 

 

Alexa shared that she feels like this business wakes her up to every aspect of her life. Her habits have changed from falling into bad habits to now noticing when she’s picking up a bad habit, being able to identify it and change it. 

 

Another way she is able to develop awareness in her business is by forming a connection with her community. By connecting with others in the Legendary Marketer community she is able to learn from them and share motivation and encouragement with them. This helps her to show up more present online and attract a wider audience.

 

Building a community will help you to connect with others who are in the same spot as you in your online journey. Finding encouragement through building community will help you to grow and feel uplifted. 

Leaving A Negative Mindset Behind

 

Alexa shared that mindset is the most important part of any journey. She used to blame everyone and everything for why things were difficult in her life. Once she realized it wasn’t everyone else, it was actually her mindset holding her back she was able to identify and change that. 

 

It’s easy to put blame on other people for things going wrong in your life but by adjusting your mindset and response to those situations. It's important to keep in mind that your mindset and response to how you deal with difficult situations can seriously contribute to the situation itself. 

 

Adjusting your mindset will help you be able to focus the responsibility on you and your business. Many people try to blame everything but themselves for what goes wrong in their online business. When you are able to identify where you are going wrong, take responsibility for it and try another way to remove the blame shift from others and put it back onto yourself. 

 

Being able to take responsibility in your business will help you grow your confidence. Alexa shared that the confidence doesn't come before you take responsibility for your business, but after. Once you are able to show up for your business and put in the hard work your confidence will grow. 

 

Being able to have awareness in your business, change your mindset, and take ownership and responsibility over your online business will help you to grow into a more confident marketer. By doing things like building connections with your community you can expand your knowledge and learn from other marketers.

Quit On Your Best Day

Quit On Your Best Day

Quit On Your Best Day - Advice For The New Entrepreneur

If you're thinking about quitting, do it on your best day. 

Yes, you read that right. It sounds counterintuitive, doesn’t it? But stick with me, and I’ll explain why this unconventional advice might just be the secret to achieving your goals.

The Temptation to Quit As A New Entrepreneur 

We've all been there. Whether it’s a project that seems to be going nowhere, a job that feels like a grind, or a side hustle that’s not bringing in the money you hoped for, the thought of quitting can be tantalizing. The allure of just walking away and leaving the stress behind is strong, especially when things aren't going well.

But here’s the kicker…the only way you’ll truly know if quitting is the right choice is if you do it on your best day. Why? Because we tend to want to quit when we're struggling. When something feels hard, our instinct is to bolt. But that’s precisely the wrong time to make such a significant decision.

The Problem with Quitting on a Bad Day

Quitting on a bad day is essentially giving up when you’re challenged. When we face obstacles, our minds and bodies go into a state of stress. This stress can cloud our judgment and make us see the situation as more dire than it actually is. In these moments, quitting feels like a release, an escape from the immediate discomfort. But this decision is often made in the heat of the moment, without considering the long-term consequences.

Think about it. Would you want your kids to give up when something gets tough? Probably not. You’d want them to push through, to learn how to deal with difficulties and come out stronger on the other side. The best way to show them how to handle tough situations is to model that behavior yourself.

The Power of Quitting on Your Best Day

So, why quit on your best day? When you’re having a good day, your mind is clear, your spirits are high, and you’re in a much better position to make rational decisions. If you still feel like quitting when everything is going well, then maybe it is the right choice. But more often than not, you’ll find that your desire to quit diminishes when you’re in a positive state of mind.

When we take quitting off the table, we start looking for ways to fix the situation. We get creative, resourceful, and resilient. We develop problem-solving skills that not only help us overcome the current challenge but also prepare us for future obstacles.

On the flip side, if we’re quick to quit, that becomes our default setting. We train ourselves to give up whenever things get tough. This habit can bleed into other areas of our lives, making us more likely to abandon our goals and dreams at the first sign of trouble.

The Simple but Not Easy Process

No one ever said starting a business was going to be easy. Dave has always been abundantly clear – the process is simple, but it’s not easy. The steps you need to take are straightforward, but the journey is filled with challenges and setbacks. It’s during these tough times that your commitment is truly tested.

When you feel like quitting, remind yourself why you started in the first place. What were your goals? What were you hoping to achieve? Sometimes, revisiting your initial motivations can reignite your passion and help you push through the tough times.

Building Resilience

Resilience is like a muscle..the more you use it, the stronger it gets. Every time you choose to stick it out instead of quitting, you’re building your resilience. This strength will serve you well, not just in your current endeavor but in every aspect of your life.

At Legendary Marketer, we believe in the power of perseverance. We understand the challenges that come with starting a business, especially when you're learning digital marketing. Our goal is to equip you with the tools and knowledge to navigate these challenges and come out on top.

The next time you’re thinking about quitting, wait until you’re having a good day. See how you feel then. Chances are, you’ll realize you’ve got more fight in you than you thought. And that’s where the magic happens. You’ll start to see progress, and those small wins will add up to something significant.

Quitting on your best day ensures that you’re making a well-considered decision rather than an impulsive one. It encourages you to push through challenges and develop the resilience needed to succeed in any endeavor. So, the next time you’re tempted to throw in the towel, remember this advice. You might just surprise yourself with what you can achieve.

Stay strong, and keep pushing forward. Your best days are ahead of you, and at Legendary Marketer, we're here to help you make the most of them.

Don't Miss The Good Stuff - Your Focus As An Entrepreneur Is Key

Ever feel like you’re stuck in a loop of negative thoughts? 

Or if you think about it, your social feed is mostly negative?

Or Maybe it’s about a missed chance, a failure, or just daily drama that drags you down.

Or even worse, you don’t even realize it’s affecting you…

I only say it because I have been there and below I share one thing I did to get out of it. 

It’s so easy to get caught up in what went wrong or what didn’t happen. 

It’s also a crutch we use as a reason to NOT continue forward or take action. 

Negativity KEEPS US STUCK.

And we're all here because we are looking for a change, an adjustment, growth. 

So getting UNSTUCK is pretty darn important! 

Focusing on the negative can actually blind us to the good stuff right in front of us – the stuff that can help us move forward.

Think of your mind like a camera lens. 

Wherever you point it, that’s where your focus is. 

If you’re always zooming in on the negatives, that’s all you’re going to see. 

But what if you changed the angle? 

What if you decided to focus on the positive things happening around you? 

This is something I personally have worked on for years. 

It’s so easy to slip back into negative thoughts, and suddenly all I would hear is negative, all I would say is negative, and it felt like nothing good was happening. 

It took forcing myself to SEE the good.

See what I’m responsible for.

And adjust. 

Now I’m not asking you to turn into some crazy Suzy Sunshine with a psycho smile plastered on your face all day. 

Dwelling on failures and disappointments is natural. 

Our brains are wired to protect us from harm, so we tend to hyper-focus on what went wrong to avoid it happening again. 

But this can backfire, trapping us in a cycle of negativity that’s hard to break. 

Think about a time when you were so caught up in a problem that you couldn’t see any solutions. Or even when you child is stuck on homework because they are so stressed, they can’t process what they need to do next. 

It’s the same thing. 

Your energy was consumed by worry and frustration, making it nearly impossible to notice any opportunities or blessings right in front of you. 

This is the trap of negative focus – it blinds us to the good and keeps us stuck.

If your funnel isn’t working right – don’t sit on it and complain, quit, and scroll to find others to complain with.

Instead – USE the support that is available to you. 

Take a break and come back to it with a new set of lenses on in order to address what’s going on. 

Ask for help. 

Problem solve. 

Imagine what happens if you flip the script. 

Instead of focusing on what went wrong, you consciously choose to seek out the positives. 

One of the greatest benefits of focusing on the positive is that it opens up your mind to possibilities. 

As a budding entrepreneur, your attention to what your focus is on IS KEY. 

But how do you start to shift it? 

Here are a few ways and I’ll also share what I personally had to do to help shift my focus…

  1. Gratitude Journaling: Start each day by writing down three things you’re grateful for. This simple practice can train your mind to look for positives.
  2. Mindful Reflection: At the end of the day, reflect on what went well. Acknowledge any challenges, but make sure to highlight the positive aspects and achievements.
  3. Positive Affirmations: Use positive affirmations daily. Statements like “I am capable of overcoming challenges” can help rewire your brain to focus on your strengths and potential.
  4. Surround Yourself with Positivity: Spend time with people who uplift and inspire you. Their positive energy can help shift your focus.
  5. Practice Kindness: Acts of kindness can boost your mood and help you see the good in the world. It’s a powerful way to shift your focus from negative to positive.

For me, this one change made a huge difference… 

I logged into my social feeds and I hit the unfollow, not interested, don’t show me this OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

I purposely shifted my entire social feed. 

I started following accounts that fed me inspiration and smiles. 

I even unfollowed a couple family members who had something new to complain about daily. 

From the weather to the checkout lady at the grocery store.

These two were always somehow WRONGED, treated poorly, had new tea to spill, new drama to put out in the world, and had crappy days over and over. 

If one was sharing something negative, the other would be right in the comments agreeing and affirming the negativity.

Those two were stuck together, and plain stuck in life. 

I did not want to join them. 

At first it comes across as possibly helpful PSA, but after a while it’s like dang…

No one has that much crap happen to them and it became clear it was due to their chosen focus. 

Those two family members were affecting the bubble of positivity I needed to create around me.

And the poor girl at the grocery store that was the regular topic of their posts…

It started to feel like straight bullying on their part because they always had a new story to share about her. 

One day I wanted to comment – Obsessed much? MOVE ON! 

But that would also meant I was jumping right back into the pool of negativity with them. It would FEED THEM and then I would become their next topic of negative attacks.  

If anything, it sounded like that girl needed some grace and protection from these two ladies instead. 

So I hit the unfollow. 

I didn’t need that energy feeding into my daily thoughts. 

What else is pretty darn cool…

Positivity is contagious. 

Your positive outlook can inspire and uplift others, creating a ripple effect that spreads beyond your immediate circle.

And that will come out in your content. 

You’ll start to see more engagement, more followers, and more that want to be surrounded by your positivity. 

Life is a mix of highs and lows, successes and failures. 

The key to moving forward lies in where you choose to place your focus. 

So as we head into a new week, I invite you to embrace the positive, celebrate the good, and notice the shift that begins to happen. 

As always…

Stay Legendary,
JoAnn

What Is VALUE in Content Creation

What Is VALUE In Content Creation?

Digital Marketing Tips - 6 Examples Of Value Driven Content For Digital Marketing

If you’ve been in the marketing space for a week, you’ve most likely already heard the standard advice – your content needs value.

Well that’s all fine and good…

But what the heck is VALUE?

I get it! New digital marketers get overwhelmed with frustration at the mere mention of this term.

Every time you hear it, it feels like some secret code that you’re suppose to know what it means, but you really don’t, and can’t seem to find anyone willing to actually break it down. 

Let’s fix this – TODAY. 

As you start creating content – whether it’s through video, emails, lead magnets, blogs, podcasts… 

One of the key challenges you’ll face is creating content that not only stops the scroll but also keeps your audience engaged. 

The secret sauce? Value.

But what exactly is “value” in content, and how can you consistently provide it to your audience? 

Let’s break it down and explore different types of value that work in any niche, complete with examples to get you started!

1. Educational Value

People love to learn new things, especially if it helps them solve a problem or improve their skills. It also doesn’t need to be presented like SCHOOL/PROFESSOR BORING. Allow your personality to shine through! After you create it, ask yourself – Would someone SAVE THIS post? 

Example: If you’re in the fitness niche, create a video or blog post on “5 Quick Home Workouts to Stay Fit Without Equipment.” Use step-by-step instructions and visual demonstrations to educate your audience.

2. Inspirational Value

Everyone needs a little inspiration now and then. Share stories or content that motivate your audience to take action or feel uplifted. We love to feel good, and we LOVE it when others help us feel good. Any post that makes us smile, feel motivated, excited, driven, or a kick in the pants we might need. 

Example: In the Entrepreneur niche, share a multi part series of morning motivation, mantras, or tips to stay driven. 

3. Entertainment Value

Sometimes, people just want to be entertained. Light-hearted, funny, or emotionally engaging content can be incredibly valuable.

Example: If you’re in the cooking niche, create a fun and engaging video of a cooking challenge, like “Can I Make a Gourmet Meal with Only 5 Ingredients?” This not only entertains but also showcases your creativity and skill. This is also where you can show a dinner fail, and that your human and relatable to your audience. 

4. Practical Value

Provide your audience with practical tips, tools, and resources they can use immediately. This type of value is highly appreciated because it’s actionable.

Example: In the digital marketing niche, write a post on “10 Free Tools Every New Digital Marketer Should Use.” Provide links and brief descriptions of each tool, highlighting how they can make marketing tasks easier.

5. Social Value

Content that sparks conversation or encourages community involvement can create a strong connection with your audience.

Example: In the travel niche, post a question like “What’s Your Most Memorable Travel Experience?” Encourage your followers to share their stories and pictures, fostering a sense of community.

6. Aesthetic Value

Beautiful, well-designed visuals can captivate your audience. This is especially powerful on platforms like Instagram and Pinterest.

Example: If you’re in the fashion niche, create visually stunning look books or outfit inspiration posts. Use high-quality photos and engaging designs to showcase the latest trends.

Remember, the key to creating valuable content is to always keep your audience’s needs and interests as the ultimate focus. 

Lastly…TEST, TEST, TEST! 

Test different types of content, see what resonates, and refine your strategy accordingly.

Mix it up, have fun and keep going! 

Legendary Marketer prides itself on teaching you the skills you actually need to launch and scale your own online business.

The Weekly Legend – Social Media Omnipresence

The Weekly Legend

Your source to stay connected, educated, and inspired.

May 12th – 18th, 2024

Do THIS immediately with your social media…

If you’ve only been on 1 social platform, it's time to start expanding. 

YES…if you're only on Instagram or TikTok, I'm especially talking to you. 

Hear me out…

Relying on a single platform for your online presence is becoming increasingly risky.

Let me break it down for you with what’s going on right now…

TIKTOK – There’s talk that TikTok might be banned soon. Nothing’s set in stone, but if TikTok is your main hangout, it’s smart to start building your crowd on other spots too. I don't want you left high and dry and starting over elsewhere and causing a halt to your business. 

INSTAGRAM – Instagram is rolling out some big changes, including paid tiered plans that promise more visibility and extra perks like links in Reels. The plans are ranging in price from $15 per month to $350 per month. But here’s the kicker—lots of creators feel like they’re being pushed to pay up to get the reach they used to get for free. There's talk that Instagram is already suppressing views and reach to try and push businesses into their paid tiers. This could mean less cool content and more ad-like content clogging up our feeds. As IG rolls this out it could very well mess up reach and user activity for everyone. As marketer’s we gotta be aware of this and ready for it. (And no I’m not suggesting you grab one of the paid tiered plans once your account is offered it.) No matter what, this means that reach and views are going to be all over the place and we need to ensure our businesses are not solely on Instagram and in the hands of the IG gods. 

With 2 significant platforms going through 2 pretty big events, if you haven’t launched in other social spaces, the time to do so is NOW.

Check out other platforms like YouTube, Pinterest, or newer ones that might fit what you're about. 

Heck, be ready for a whole new platform to emerge…ya never know! 

Putting this into action doesn't need to be difficult. 

Take your previous content and recycle it onto the new platform as you build it out. I suggest making small tweaks, so it’s not identical, but overall you don’t have to start from scratch.

And most importantly…DRIVE TRAFFIC TO YOUR FUNNEL. 

Many, especially those that have put all their eggs into the Instagram basket, are also NOT building a list. (It truly hurts my entrepreneurial heart when I see this) 

A social media account, ANY social media can be pulled from us at anytime. 

We don’t own it, we’re borrowing it. 

But we DO OWN OUR EMAIL LISTS. 

Emails are fantastic ways to keep in touch without worrying about algorithm changes.

And your business keeps going regardless of what sort of issue, tantrum, or test a particular social media platform is going through.

and that’s the whole point… 

Longevity. 

I want the business you’re building to be around for years to come, and that means omni-presence and list building are key. 

This week, look at where else you can begin to post content and create a following…

and take action. 

It doesn’t have to be perfect, but it's time to get it done. 

Branching out means you won’t have to sweat it when one platform changes the rules. 

Plus, ya never know…it may be exactly what your business needed to find more awesome people that match your ideal audience.

Lastly…use this as a way to further step into your own business identity.

Yes it’s scary to think about expanding…

The comparison-itis, the worry of “I’m not ready” comes into play. 

WATCH THIS from Brooke Burrough

She sat down with Dave on Friday and in this one short clip she hit on all the things.

She touched on fear, worthiness, and worrying about what everyone else is doing and instead do what feels good for you and your business. 

Ya gotta check it out! 

I hope this clip gets you motivated to take action and to step into your own online identity and direction, and of course I hope you expand beyond just a single presence on one social media platform.

You Got Questions, We Got Answers About The 5-Day Learn Launch Lead Challenge

Your Questions Answered

The 5-Day Learn Launch Lead Challenge - Your Questions Answered & Find Out What's Going On With Legendary Marketer

Dave really out did himself with this one…and below I answer your burning questions about the NEW Learn Launch Lead 5-Day Challenge from Legendary Marketer. Here you'll learn exactly what's going on with Legendary Marketer and why you should consider checking out this new challenge. 

You can’t be proud of your business if you don’t have full understanding of how MARKETING, ENTREPRENEURSHIP, AND DIGITAL SKILLS WORK. 

This is what we do here.

This is what we’ve done since 2017. 

And we just changed the whole dang education industry with the amount of education we provide in the 5-Day Learn Launch Lead Challenge…because we’re practically giving it away for only $5. 

There’s ZERO FLUFF in this challenge.

It’s a big ol’ plate of meat and potatoes. 

Remember – EVERY SINGLE BUSINESS needs marketing. 

They need an online presence. 

We teach you the skills, we teach you how to build and monetize an online presence of your own in any niche, for any product. 

You'll be empowered. You'll build confidence. You CAN DO THIS. 

So lets dive into the questions regarding our new 5-Day Learn Launch Lead Challenge…

 

What are the differences between the previous 15-Day Challenge and the NEW 5-Day Learn Launch Lead Challenge?

OH man…let me list a FEW of the differences…

  1. We go over how to pick a niche in an area you love right on Day 1
  2. We include an entire day on Faceless content so you can get online without as much worry
  3. We include an entire day on content creation, planning, along with homework to take action! 
  4. We know how important mindset is. Many of us need more support with getting out of our own way, so we weaved MINDSET throughout each day of the challenge. 

AND THAT’S JUST THE START…

Dave poured his decades of experience along with the feedback from YOU and created a completely new challenge to HELP you LEARN, GET LAUNCHED, and step into LEADING. 

If I have the previous 15-Day Challenge, can I buy the new Learn Launch Lead challenge?

YES, this is a completely separate product and experience.

If you own the 15 day challenge, you still have access to it. However, our new challenge, for $5, is a remastered, beefed up challenge to help our students get exactly what they need to get launched. As you can see from the first question above it's JAM PACKED with a focus on CONTENT CREATION! You can't sell a darn thing online without traffic – which means you need to know how to create content. This challenge goes into Faceless Marketing as well! 

Does the new Learn Launch Lead Challenge cover digital products?

Like I said…You can’t sell a darn thing – even a digital product until you know how to market it. 

Shoot…if you are still stuck, scrolling and consuming more than creating, if you're barely taking action, and just hoping that saying you have a digital product will get you sales…you need a refocus. 

Our Learn Launch Lead Challenge gives you the opportunity to GET FOCUSED on what MATTERS at the start of a business. We don't want you to launch with a small vision. We want you to launch your business with a long term, long lasting business you can be proud of to share with friends and family. Learn the basics and you can have a variety of streams of income as you scale – including digital products.

Can I meet with an advisor during the Learn Launch Lead Challenge?

YES – on your first login you will pick your path – Advisor led or Self led. We do have data that the VAST majority that actually COMPLETE our education, did meet with an advisor. If you would like that added support and sounding board, choose Advisor led. It’s 100% up to you and available in the new challenge. 

Does it come with MRR?

Ya know what TRUE MRR is – MONTHLY RECURRING REVENUE 

And that’s the MRR we consider a long term viable, stream of income that you should add to your business. If you’re talking about anything that forces you to buy something in order to resell it, pyramid feel to it – you won’t find that here.

As you SCALE your business adding streams of income such as Monthly Recurring Revenue is FANTASTIC. 

BUT, you can’t get to that point unless you have the roots, the skills, and the confidence. You gotta get launched and grow a following first. That's what we do here. Our Learn Launch Lead Challenge teaches you what you need to GET STARTED.

Will you still sell the 15 Day Challenge? 

We believe in our new challenge so much, we are no longer offering the 15 Day challenge to new students. 

I'm seeing products online that don't offer a refund – will Legendary still offer refunds?

YOU BET! We have and always believe in creating a space that can be trusted and value our students FIRST. The 5-Day Learn Launch Lead Challenge comes with a 30-Day money back refund period. I mean, it's wild to think of purchasing anything without a refund period attached. 

How do I get my hands on the 5-Day Learn Launch Lead Challenge?

Login to your back office, Hover over CHALLENGE at the top and select 5-Day Challenge and buy it right there for INSTANT ACCESS. Remember it's only 5 bucks.

April 21st – 27th, 2023

Your Weekly Legend for April 21st-27th

Yep, I’m going to ask you to doubt something…

But first, I have a thank you to give. 

On Friday, our guest was a 58 yr old piano sales manager named Joe who has an absolute huge heart of gold.

He was kind, authentic, raw, real, and everything in between. 

I seriously can’t say enough good things about him.

He shared how he missed many moments of his kids growing up but wasn’t going to miss his grandchildren. 

He wants to start planning his week around his kids activities instead of around his J.O.B. 

He drove home that all of us can make a change at any point, at any age and take daily action to be more available.

He then shared something I had never heard before. 

Ya see, although I love what I do here at Legendary, I have a much bigger role that I love…

I’m the momma to 3 pretty awesome teenagers. 

And they were all going through a moment of doubting their abilities…

Doubting if they could push through feeling tired.

Doubling if they could overcome some fear that had creeped in before a meet they had.

Doubting if they can repeat the success they once experienced. 

Doubting if they can reach the next level

And I remembered what Joe shared and I shared it with them. 

“Doubt your doubts instead of doubting your abilities.” 

DOUBT YOUR DOUBTS

Dang. 

Think about it. 

Those 3 words are wildly powerful.

Every day we have self-talk that's sole purpose is to doubt our abilities…

It keeps us from going on camera

It keeps us from showing up authentically

It keeps us from taking real action to create change in our life

It keeps us from writing those emails 

Or taking that funnel live

What if we flipped the script and started doubting our doubts instead…

If there is one interview you watch…please take some time and get to know Joe. 

An everyday, (awesome) dad who’s launched online, learning new skills, and is choosing to doubt his doubts and keep going. 

And Joe…thank you for helping me provide some amazing advice to my kiddos. 

Wake Up Legendary is so much more than seeing how someone “made money.” 

It’s about learning how to be…

A better business owner

A better marketer

A better content creator

A better connector

A better leader

Even…

A better partner

A better friend

A better parent

Check out Joe’s interview HERE 

I know you will love him AND I know you will take real action in your education and business afterwards too.

Setting The Record Straight: Addressing False Claims About Legendary Marketer

Setting the Record Straight - Addressing False Claims About Legendary Marketer

Recently, we were the subject of a negative marketing story that included misleading claims made by 3 individuals and a self-proclaimed “expert”. 

We want to take this opportunity to clarify the misconceptions and deceptive claims of this story and reaffirm our commitment to the tagline that’s been written on the front of LegendaryMarketer.com since the beginning of our company's existence: Online Marketing Delivered Simply and With Integrity. 

Our goal with every course and piece of education we release to our customers is to introduce and teach digital marketing skills to everyday people looking to build an online business or upgrade their current business with digital marketing strategies.  

As we continue to revisit our commitment to ethical positive marketing, and being the example for our students, Dave has this message above.

Now speaking directly to our students, it’s our ultimate goal for you to create an online community you love, in a niche you’re excited about, and can amplify positivity in the online space. You attract what you put out, and negative slanderous marketing efforts will bring a community with the same focus. 

This is one of the few things shared in the article that we agree on – everyone should do their research before purchasing any product or education.

We recommend you take a strong look at anyone resorting to negative and attacking marketing tactics and if you want to be associated with those types of tactics online.

Your Weekly Legend for March 17th-23rd

I got a bone to pick with you…

Regularly, we’re asked for Wake Up Legendary episodes that have someone in a unique niche or someone that is newer or it took more time for their business to take off. 

And when those requests come in I scratch my head and think to myself – where did I screw up? 

Because…first of all everyday there is someone new that shares they’re in month 9, month 14, month, and how they started from zero followers, and didn’t have overnight success. 

That is the norm and we showcase it almost daily. 

Then we’ve had guests in parenting, dating, pet niche, mindset and manifesting, those promoting their own digital products, those doing their own events, and most recently 2 really cool and different niches…AVIATION and COOKING. 

But here’s where my blood boils…

They were 2 of the lowest watched episodes.  

AHHHHHHHH

YET TWO OF THE MOST MARKETING STRATEGY PACKED EPISODES…EVER.

In our Blueprints group, we have tons of students in the women’s health niche, travel, fitness, and pets to name some of the bigger ones. (I know because I took a poll and see the questions asked in the group and on our daily live support calls) 

So my next assumption is, many of you think you can only get value from an interview that is talking about the specific niche you want to go into. 

And that’s where you’re missing the mark. 

I don't want you to box yourself in…

I don’t want you to just rinse and repeat what someone else is doing. (Trust me, there’s a lot of of that out there right now with other products) 

It looks easy to just buy something and turn around and sell it. 

And you can’t do that here so suddenly what you’re learning here feels “hard.” 

The truth is nothing is easy. 

Learning digital marketing skills, really learning them is knowing how to apply them to ANY niche, to ANY audience, for ANY product. 

And we absolutely believe YOU can learn them. 

When you listen to others' stories, their journey, their struggles and their wins, you can see how they connected the dots of marketing strategy to their niche and audience of choice. 

We are here to teach you the skills. 

We are here to teach you the strategies.

We are here to empower you with knowledge. 

We are here to cheer you on, as you find your passion and take the marketing skills you learn and apply them in the real world. 

(which you already know) 

We want you to think…BIGGER for yourself.

But one of the best ways to bring it all together and see it applied…

Watch Wake Up Legendary for FREE daily training and real world examples.

Listen to what the guest shares, take notes, and apply their advice to your own niche and what you're learning. 

Use Wake Up Legendary as a guide to spark creativity, spark your own ideas for your own business, and then take action. 

Basically…don’t watch an episode or follow someone because of the NICHE they're in. 

Look deeper beyond the surface details. 

You'll get way more value out of each interview with that change in mindset. 

I also want to make sure I get you what you've asked for…since I clearly missed the mark as well. 

So here it is…

Wanna watch two awesome episodes that are jam packed with advice for those starting out? (AND happen to be in two unique niches) 

Here ya go:

AVIATION NICHE (This guest was in a different niche for 10 months until finally making the switch to aviation, where is love and excitement lives) 

COOKING NICHE (No she’s not a professionally trained cook, but she shares her LOVE of cooking and creating with her audience, and has her own book!) 

I don’t share the above because of the niche, but because they're both JAMMED full of advice, struggles, wins, and share what it looks like when you go all in to building your own business…virtually. 

Enjoy!

As always…

Stay Legendary,
JoAnn

Your Weekly Legend for March 10th-16th

Today I was bitten.

Yep, I got a little story for ya…

Picture this – I'm sitting down, ready to write today's email for all of you.

I'm in the zone, ideas are flowing, but nothing is set yet.

I should also mention, I have a 5 month old lab puppy (who's at the age where training is key), along with a couple older dogs. 

Currently we are focused on my puppy not jumping. Our trainer told us to shake a bottle of rocks because it produces a loud noise he hates and knows he’s doing something wrong. 

My daughter walked in and the puppy, who was chillin, pops up and starts jumping on her. 

I shake the bottle.

And like a frickin movie, my older bulldog out of nowhere jumps in the air from the side of me….and BAM! 

Her mouth is around my arm and for the first time ever…I’ve been bitten by a dog. 

Luckily no blood was drawn, just some bruises. 

But suddenly, I'm thrown for a loop. 

I'm nursing a sore arm, my focus is shot, and writer's block is hitting me like a ton of bricks. 

Distractions are everywhere, and I'm seriously considering just throwing in the towel for the day. 

I mean, I've got a pretty solid excuse, right?

But then it hit me. 

This is exactly the kind of situation that tests our commitment. 

It's easy to show up and do the work when everything's going smoothly. 

But what about when things get tough? 

The more we find excuses to not show up, the more our business (and our goals) will struggle.

We can’t equal easy to right. 

Showing up to our business…every single day…

Takes commitment. 

So, I powered through. 

I figured out a way to get it done, even with a bruised arm and ego. 

And you know what? 

It felt pretty darn good.

This little incident reminded me that perseverance is key. 

In digital marketing, and in life, there will always be unexpected “bulldog bites” that try to throw you off course. 

But it's how you respond to those challenges that really counts.

There will always be things thrown at us…

Are you going to focus on excuses? 

Are you going to reason why you're giving up or why you won’t make changes to your business when you know it’s the right thing to do? 

Are you choosing the lazy approach?

Or are you going to figure out how to show up, adjust, grow, and continue to push forward? 

So, here's to showing up, even when it's easier not to. 

Here’s to doing what’s right for a long lasting business – even it forces you out of your comfort zone. 

And hey, if a spicy bulldog can't stop me, what's your excuse?

Keep pushing forward!

As always…

Stay Legendary,

JoAnn

Your Weekly Legend for February 18th-24th

There’s one recurring theme that is weaving through Wake Up Legendary interviews, through our live support calls, hot seats, through Facebook posts in the group.

This one topic, all new business owners and marketers talk about when first starting out…

Value in content.

Ya know you need value in your content.

But what is this elusive “value” that you keep hearing about? 

And how do you know if you content includes this value everyone is talking about? 

Well, this one question will help you instantly gauge if your content includes value. (and no, directing them to your link in every piece of content is not THE VALUE, that’s the call to action and your CTA should be changed up in each piece of content.) 

Ready for the question…here ya go! 

Before you hit post, watch reel, watch your video, read your post and then ask yourself this question…

Will my ideal audience want to share and/or save this piece of content after they watch it? 

If the answer is no…don’t post it.

Instead, go back, tweak it so it’s something your IDEAL audience will want to share/save. 

They’ll do this because now your content gives them something they need, they want, they desire, that makes them laugh, that helps them, or is relatable. It's got guts, it's got some substance to it.

It can be as simple, something that is funny and relatable to your ideal audience that they have to share it with their BFF. 

It can be tips, tricks, or what has helped you, that your IDEAL audience will relate to as well. 

Yes, there's so much more to creating content and having a strategy in place but asking this one question is an excellent last checkbox and gauge if that piece of content will have a chance of getting more views. 

Asking yourself this question can be a game-changer for creating content that really clicks with your audience.

Heck it will help the algorithm FIND your ideal audience too. 

It's perfect for shaking off those low-views or for getting your new account off ground. 

Plus, it'll help you ditch that salesy vibe and start building a brand that is filled with connection, positivity, and followers that are pumped to be there. 

Do yourself a favor this weekend and go back through your content, and ask yourself – would my ideal audience share it or save it to refer back to? If someone shared it with you, would you enjoy it and see value in it or would you be scratching your head asking why in the world did my friend Susie just share this with me? 

If you find any videos that don’t really hit the mark…DON’T DELETE THEM. 

Instead, remake them with added value! 

And build from there. 

Haven't started posting yet? No problem! As you research and plan what to post, start asking yourself – what's the value in the content I enjoy consuming? Why do I want to send a particular video to a colleague or friend? 

That's where you uncover the value

Get out those marketing shades and put them on. 

Make note of what you uncover, and start looking at content as a marketer instead of as a consumer.  

And as a side note, if you read the above and scratching your head, asking yourself – but who is my ideal audience? Please go revisit Day 5 of the challenge or the Fishing formula in the blueprints and get your Business plan dialed in. Your ideal audience is defined right there.

And one last tip…Back in November I shared one of the best growth call to actions to use, that is also the most under-utilized is – “save this for later/share this with a friend.” So your bonus tip…be sure you're adding in a variation of this CTA into your content strategy as well! 

Happy Creating! 

As always…

Stay Legendary,
JoAnn

The course doesn't work…

Yep, you read that right. 

The course doesn't work…

Our guest on Thursday's episode of Wake Up Legendary shared this with Dave.

Let me add the rest of the quote for you…

“The course doesn’t work. It doesn’t have arms and legs. It only works if you do.” -Mitra

Read that again.

And she’s absolutely right. 

In fact… NO COURSE works all on its own. 

No course will magically build your funnel, create your daily content, write your emails, blogs, build relationships…. 

No course will suddenly create and implement what's in it while you sleep. 

The act of buying a relationship course, won't actually fix your marriage…you have to implement the techniques taught…and work at it. 

A parenting course won't miraculously help your toddler have less tantrums because you purchased the online digital product and joined the private Facebook group of other toddler moms. 

You have to do the work to make it work. 

Yet so many will grab an online course and expect the world of instant success without really doing much of anything….

I see some even hop around, buying course after course, joining a ton of different Facebook groups, yet not once actually go through the course they purchased. 

Their inbox is slammed with freebies, purchased courses of all price points and promised guarantees from Guru Greg to Guru Gail. 

But they never find it…

Until they decide to do the work themselves. 

Until they sit down, go through the lessons, implement, dedicate, and go all in. 

This interview was so powerful.

Turning Your Self Doubt Into A Success Story

On Monday December 4th Dave Sharpe sat down with Ginger Halbert to talk about her online business and how she is turning years of self doubt into achievement. Ginger is from Melbourne Australia and is a primary school teacher. After maternity leave she had to go back to work and knew she would much rather be at home with her newborn daughter. After putting her 8 month old daughter into daycare she knew that a change needed to be made in her life so that she could stay home with her and be a present Mom for her daughter. 

 

She came across Legendary and did the 15 Day Business Builder Challenge after starting a blog online. Once she started her affiliate marketing journey she felt like she had found what she was looking for.  

 

Identifying Limiting Beliefs In Your Journey

 

Growing up Ginger felt like she had to live the cookie cutter life of going to college and getting a 9-5 job after. She was always told that was the only way to live. Affiliate marketing was the hidden gem that had always been there but she hadn’t known about.

 

Growing up she always gave up on things quickly and never pushed through because of self doubt. Since starting her affiliate marketing journey she has taught herself to push through things even when they are hard or if she thinks she can’t do something.

Identifying what your limiting beliefs are. This may be something like how Ginger felt the only way to go through life was college onto a 9-5. What is holding you back from starting your online business and taking the plunge into digital marketing? Identifying what is holding you back and not allowing it to is where your digital marketing journey can truly begin to blossom.

 

For Ginger this looked like her being fearful to show her face online. Who would see her content? What if students and their parents saw it? Once she identified that limiting belief and chose to make her content anyway, she was able to move past it and see that it didn’t matter who saw her content, because the right people would find it.

 

Finding The Right Mindset For Your Business and Embracing Change

 

A big part of your marketing journey is finding the right mindset. Finding the right mindset to have in your business is shifting your mindset to knowing that no matter what, giving up on your business cannot be an option. You have to be willing to remove quitting from your list of options. 

 

Another part of this is embracing change both in your business and in the online space. The internet is ever changing and growing. Adapting to the possibility of aspects in your business changing often is all part of maintaining and building your business. Social media changes and things become popular and get old quickly. Always be ready and willing to embrace the changes that may come your way and be willing to change the way you make content. 

 

If something isn’t working for you, don’t give up. Trying new things is all part of the process. If you aren’t receiving engagement, try something new. This may be a new prop in your videos, a new angle or type of content, or something else. Trying new things in your content and embracing change allows for more people to find your content and connect with it. 

 

Navigating Online Negativity

 

Something that can really slow people down and prohibit their growth in the online space is negativity from viewers on social media. Everyone receives negativity online when they put themselves out there. Something that really helped Ginger overcome the negativity of others online was working on her self growth. By empowering herself she was able to stop caring about what others were saying about her online. 

 

Another way to deter hate from your page is by delivering consistent value to your audience and remaining authentic. When you remain authentic to yourself you can cultivate a positive online presence of people who really connect to your story and want the value that you are delivering. Engaging with your audience and being helpful and friendly can also help create a community that supports your business and counters negativity. 

 

Negative comments and criticism are not a reflection of your abilities and worth. Finding the right mindset and identifying your limiting beliefs will help your business to grow and thrive. Focusing on the positives in digital marketing and releasing the negatives or anxieties that come with starting and maintaining a new business will help you to not only develop yourself mentally, but allow your business to develop and grow as well. 

 

Would you like to find a profitable business you can do from home so you can bring in much more substantial income? If so, I recommend you watch this free video which will walk you through our #1 recommended way to learn how to earn money online from home.

February 4th – 10th, 2024

Your Weekly Legend for February 4th-10th

I was sitting in line at an amusement park…CRYING.

I wasn’t just giving a little whimper, I was in a full on ugly girl, hysterical cry.

Why?

Because I was in line for a roller coaster that had a loop de loop…I was about to go upside down for the first time.

And I was absolutely terrified.

My older brother was encouraging me…

You can do this.

You’ll love it

You gotta try it once

I got you

I’ll be with you

I’ll hold your hand

I was not having it.

I was the girl in line balling and yelling no.

I was the little 4th grader everyone was looking at, commenting, snickering, and advising my brother to take me out of line.

He wasn’t getting any support.

It felt like everyone around me wanted me to quit, even I wanted to in that moment. 

But he wasn’t going to listen to the unsolicited opinions either.

He finally said to me…

Do what you want. I’m not taking you out of line.

And with these next words he shared, my “why” to stay and get on that roller coaster became bigger than my fear…

If you don’t want to go, and be a big baby, then walk through the coaster to the exit, I’m still going on the ride.

Just remember, you’ll be stuck sitting with mom for the rest of the day scared, or you can go on rides with me.

You decide.

Yes, I was young.

Yes, my brother gave me some tough love. (as any older HS aged boy would)

But man I didn’t want to miss out and I definitely didn't want to be called a big baby and my brother never want to do something fun with me again.

Plus, he wasn't going to leave with me. 

He was going to do what he wanted to do with or without me.

I didn’t have confidence in myself…

But he had it for me and I needed to borrow that to take that first step and get on the roller coaster.

Ya see…

We’re faced with moments of fear all the time.

Even when we're young.

I bet you can list a few times in your life, where you did something new and overcame fear. 

In all of these moments, we aren’t an expert, we don’t truly know what’s going to happen, but we know we won’t know until we do it.

The same goes for launching your own business.

Of course you aren’t an expert.

Of course you’re still learning.

But ya know what…

We all know you can get launched and keep going, once you decide to.

We also have people around us, in online communities, cheering us on. 

We gotta borrow that confidence as we grow our own.

Our confidence will grow as we implement.

Our confidence will become stronger as we continue to take action.

I was a hysterical, crying, fearful girl in line for that roller coaster.

I walked off though feeling like a freakin rockstar and asked to go again…

I would have never grown that confidence in myself if I didn’t at least try it.

Monday’s episode of Wake Up Legendary was a MASTERCLASS on building confidence.

Caroline Hannay was our guest and Dave and Caroline dive into it all.

She had no followers, wasn't sure about herself, and didn't have everything all figured out.

But one day, she asked herself, “Why not me?”

And that's when her story took a turn.

At first, it was tough.

No one was watching her content.

Most people would think, “Maybe I should just quit.”

But not Caroline!

She kept going, pushing through all the doubts and the silence.

If you're feeling a bit scared, or if everything feels too much, or if you feel like you're all alone in this journey of being an entrepreneur, Caroline's story is for you.

In her interview, she spills how she kicked those fears away, how she found her niche, (yes, she first started planning on being an affiliate for a flame thrower).

But most importantly, she shared how through consistent action, her confidence grew.

It is absolutely a MUST WATCH episode.

As always…

Stay Legendary,
JoAnn

Your Weekly Legend for January 28th - Feb 3rd

I got 2 things for you today…

I had a recent family experience about online marketing, but it revealed a bigger truth…

There are some pretty darn cool niches out there, that people are building businesses around. 

You can truly build a business around what you love.

As an entrepreneur, there will always be family that just wants to sit in the negative pool of negative comments and thoughts.

For whatever reason family members feel they should absolutely share all their funky monkey and often times, rude opinions with you.

Well, it’s been awhile since this has happened to me.

Heck I’ve been doing digital marketing for over a decade, you’d think it wouldn’t be a topic.

But here we are, sitting at a local sports bar and what I do as a profession becomes the topic.

Ya see, my brother had a friend in town who I’d never met.

We met up for dinner and the friend asked me, now what do you do JoAnn?

As I share a brief description of what I do, one of my family member’s chimes in with THIS comment…

“Well, I would NEVER buy anything online. It’s all scammers, I just don’t get how you get around that. No one does legitimate business online.”

FFS

Did I really just hear that?

Talk about a palm to the face moment. 

I could go down the road of piss and attack and defend what I do, but I chose a different approach…

I “changed the subject” as I had a plan…

How’s quilting going? I asked.

As she spoke, she shared she was heading to Quilt Camp.

Ahhh, I think to myself, even more perfect!

I asked how she found it?

“From a Facebook group of quilters that I’m a member of,” she added.

Oh…how did you find that group to join?

She then shared – “From a lady that has a Facebook page where she teaches how to use a long arm and shares different quilts and patterns each week.”

She then added that this lady shared her quilt camp in her email newsletter.

I'm thinking to myself, this is going better than I even hoped for…

So I dive in…

OHHHH so you found a lady who quilts….ONLINE.

You loved her content so much you then…

followed her social media accounts

joined her EMAIL list

joined her private Facebook group

and now you’re going to a private small 3 day event (also known as a mastermind) to be in the same room with other quilters.

PLUS, she buys quilting projects off this lady’s recommendations…regularly.

Anyone else see what I see?

So of course I then explained to her how she's a consumer of affiliate offers, digital products, and a live event and purchasing quite a bit online and clearly this quilting lady she’s following and trusts is not a scammer.

This lady also has multiple digital products and online courses!

This quilting lady monetized what she loves and I'm here for it!

There was silence from my family member. 

She was shocked.

She never realized.

I went on to eat my fries as that soaked in for her.

A spark was ignited and she started asking more questions about other Facebook groups she’s in and started pulling up people she follows on Instagram.

I showed her how all of them had a link in bio, that she's clicking…and BUYING from.

Those marketers, do an excellent job of creating valuable content that their ideal audience loves, so it never felt SALESY.

Instead, they served their audience by building trust, engaging content, and community. 

Whether your passion is quilting, fitness, investing or even raising chickens…

You can absolutely monetize it.

That’s what I love about what we do here.

We get the opportunity to teach our students skills that hopefully ignite a spark to think BIGGER for themselves and grow something that could truly bring more joy.

Anything is possible when you harness the power of digital marketing skills.

When we start looking at what we consume each day, we realize just how much digital marketing is woven into everything we do.

And now…you’re learning exactly how to do that too.

It’s frickin awesome!

Heck this quilting lady took her passion, creates content, has an email opt-in, a private Facebook group, and is running live events.

She's using all of the core four business models we teach her within her quilting niche.

And I’m goin’ to bet, she LOVES showing up to her business everyday.

Which leads me to this one question…are you in a unique niche you love? Are you building an online community that is connected to your passion and now you’re monetizing it?

I would love to hear about the business your building around what you love and your unique niche. Let Me Know Here

As always…

Let's cut to the chase – the burning question on everyone's mind: “Is TikTok Dead?” 

I’ve heard this question a few times this week. 

But before you start mourning or celebrating (we don't judge), let's dive into this.

And it requires a bit of history…

The Internet and the need for Digital Marketing isn’t going away.

Every single business NEEDS marketing to SURVIVE.

Every single business that exists on the planet NEEDS an online presence. 

When you have digital marketing skills, you become desirable. 

As Dave says – It makes you smart enough to be dangerous. 

That’s why since 2017 we’ve been teaching the CORE 4, the true base of all digital marketing skills: 

  1. Affiliate Marketing
  2. Digital Courses & Products
  3. Coaching & Consulting
  4. Events & Masterminds 

If you have knowledge in any of the above, you’re ahead of the game. 

If you have knowledge in all 4…well…

Now you’re a digital marketer to be reckoned with. 

And that’s why folks, we have 4 detailed Blueprints for each focus. 

But, here’s the cool part. 

How we get traffic to our offers does change. (Which is why we always are updating our blueprints)

But the strategies we teach within them don’t…they can be used regardless of what crazy algorithm tantrum is going on. 

TikTok has been accused of morphing into a modern-day QVC.

With TikTok Shop all over the platform, creators are jumping in to sell whatever they can sling from TT shop and the algorithm is prioritizing those videos a bit more.

Here’s the reality: all social platforms go through an identity crisis.

All platforms go through algorithm adjustments, changes in focus.

Remember when Facebook was just a college network or a place to play farmville? 

Or when Instagram was only for ‘aesthetic’ photos?

TikTok’s shift towards more commercial content might seem like it's losing its original charm. 

But, it is far from dead. 

Every single marketer has their “favorite” platform. 

Every single marketer has a platform that doesn’t perform well for them.

It doesn’t mean that the entire platform is DEAD. 

Just this week, we had digital marketer, Kellee Roberts on Wake Up Legendary and she shared how she had really tried to give IG a try because others were having success there.

But…it was never the platform she produced huge conversions from. 

It was always Tiktok that she produced the most leads and conversions from. 

So she went back to prioritizing TT, and couldn’t be happier. 

So, is TikTok dead? 

Far from it. 

It’s just wearing a new hat, and it’s our job to ensure we are putting out quality content that builds community and connection and not showing up as a digital door to door salesman in every video. (and btw that goes for every platform)

This brings us to the golden rule of digital marketing: omni-presence.

Being active and interactive across platforms is key. 

All platforms will go through algorithm adjustments. 

I think sometimes IG tests new algorithm changes almost weekly. 

Because of this we can’t focus on that.

What we can do is make sure we’re showing up to as many platforms as we can without being overwhelmed and be present and ready for when the algorithm favors our content more. 

So don't write off TikTok just yet (unless it’s a platform you just can’t stand, because remember it’s YOUR BUSINESS and you decide where you want your business to have a digital presence). 

Keep creating, keep engaging, and most importantly, stay present across platforms. 

After all, versatility is the name of the digital marketing game.

Happy New Year! 

It’s that time of year where most of us are doing some level of reflecting on the past 12 months and what we want out of the next year. 

Are you possibly thinking about regrets? The what if’s? The could have’s? 

Well…the past is done. 

We can spend our time focused on what we have zero control over at this point, or we can dive into what we need to do in 2024 to turn our “What if’s” into ABSO-FREAKIN-LUTELY.

What if you made 2024 the year of YOU?

I saw a recent post that asked to name the most important people in your life, and if you didn’t list yourself…you should. 

What if this was the year where YOU’RE the main event

It's time to kick things up a notch and make this year all about what YOU want to do.

Go after the goals YOU want to achieve.

Step into the greatness YOU’VE been wanting. 

And hey, if someone says that's being selfish, just give them the ol' eye roll.

Because guess what? 

That eye roll, that negative comment they are throwing at you is more about THEIR limiting beliefs.

It’s more about them being the crab in the bucket, trying to keep you down in the hole with them.

Remember, when you prioritize you, when you gain new skills and an updated mindset, it’s not just a win for you. 

It’s like you’re the superhero in your own comic book, ready to help out your family. 

When you're at your best, you make everything and everyone around you better too.

Basically, making 2024 the year of YOU truly benefits your loved ones as well. 

Our final Best of 2023 Wake Up Legendary is tomorrow, January 1st with an amazing interview with Chelsea Ouimet.

She talks alot about finally prioritizing herself and only keeping people in her circle that charge her up instead of vacuuming her goals and energy away. 

It’s an excellent interview to kick off the year with. 

Then Dave is back LIVE on Tuesday with an all new guest, new motivation, and new inspiration to help YOU make 2024 your best year yet. 

Check out this week’s episodes below.

I've got something really cool to share with you as we get close to the end of 2023. 

On Friday, Dave absolutely unleashed a phenomenal and motivating talk to all those that were on Decade In A Day. 

He uncovered how confidence or lack there of is the root of what’s holding us back. 

He dove into what it means to finally not give up on yourself.

He also discussed how we need to be accountable to ourselves, how each of us are survivors, and that vulnerability is not a weakness.

Instead, vulnerability is absolutely a strength. 

Then there was a question he asked…

I had to share this clip with each of you, as many of us are setting goals for ourselves as the new year comes. 

You’ll also be reminded that when you work on these goals, you become more confident and better at what you do.

Take a listen, then as Dave shares at the end…what happens next is completely in your hands. 

Let's make 2024 a year where we step into a confident version of ourselves we once didn’t believe was possible.

Vegas Baby!

When many of us hear those two words our thoughts are instantly filled with images of…

Glittery outfits, fabulous dinners, amazing shows, and the opportunity to cash in overnight. 

Dreams of big payouts from the slots, the craps table, or blackjack are filling our thoughts and directing our decisions.

Friday night rolls around and the flights into Vegas are filled with excited, gleeful people that just know…

THIS will be the weekend that everything changes.

We fully believe the slots are going to be loose, and the money will be flyin!

Drinks are being poured on the plane.

There’s cheering, there’s excitement.

The group that snagged group A on Southwest are already celebrating like they won at the craps table.

There’s a whole lot of people believing their life is about to change.

You can feel the energy on the plane and in the airport.

Some even grabbing limos to their hotel, manifesting that millionaire lifestyle.

But wait?

I thought we were IN a recession? 

I thought so many were struggling? 

I thought inflation was making everyone seek out quick and cheap instead of something that can be trusted and long term? 

Yet those planes to Vegas are packed each and every weekend…

All for what?

A HOPE FOR A QUICK CASH-IN.

This is going to be the weekend to remember.

Finally the opportunity to get a whole lotta somethin’ for doing a whole lotta nothin’.

Then the worse part about a Vegas trip hits…

Sunday morning

With one quick scan through the security line at the Vegas airport…you know.

The crowd is feelin' rough and they're leaving empty handed.

The make believe life they created over the weekend is over. 

And the dream of becoming overnight millionaires has been shattered.

And to top it off…

they forgot to check in for their flight at the 24 hour mark so group C it is. 

Stuck in the middle seat, pondering about how they gotta go back to the job they hate the next day.

Why does this happen over and over?

It all comes back to one thing…

EGO

Ego is booking that Vegas trip, hoping to finally be the lucky, big winner so you can finally feel good and look good to others

Ego is what’s answering the random stranger in the DMs and handing over thousands for some secret hot item.

Ego is what got us jumping from course to course, offer to offer…yet we aren’t looking to actually learn.

Instead…

We’re looking for a quick payout like a Vegas slot machine. 

We’re looking for quick payouts and feed our egos.

We’re looking for someone else to make us suddenly look good.

“You won’t be rich if your ego is bigger than your bank account.”

Dave has shared this quite a bit on Wake Up Legendary over the years. 

Our ego plays a massive role in our success or lack thereof.

And ultimately, if we’re gonna gamble…

We gotta BET ON OURSELVES.

THAT'S when we’ll see the REAL payout.

In betting and gambling, there’s always a risk.

We gotta stop throwing cash at a machine designed to TAKE OUR money and start taking different risks…

Risks that improve our knowledge.

Risks that improve our growth.

Risks that grow our confidence.

Risks that can give us more control.

When we stop worrying about what everyone else might say and focus solely on our own goals, path, and actions…that’s where the real magic happens.

Bet on you.

The really cool thing, you always win in the end when you do.

What will you do today to bet on yourself? 

Your future? 

Your dreams? 

What action are you willing to take today?
