WHAT

WEEK…

I’m still fired up!

On Friday I was asked this question: 

“This is beyond valuable, why don’t more people talk about this single bonus more because it’s worth so much?”

I thought to myself…HECK YEAH it is! 

What is this I speak of? 

On Friday, with nearly 1000 students gathered on a live teaching webinar, cohosted by yours truly, this question was asked. 

Every couple of weeks, we pick a new niche with new offers and build out everything, including a content plan. 

We take all the skills taught in the Blueprints and put them into action. 

We break it all down and demonstrate how the skills we teach are used in all areas of digital marketing regardless of niche or offer. 

We poured our hearts, marketing wisdom, and experience into this incredible group, and the energy was electrifying! 

If you’re a Blueprints student and haven’t attended Decade In A Day (or haven’t in a while) I highly suggest you revisit it! 

But that's just the beginning. 

Our interviews on Wake Up Legendary are nothing short of mind-blowing. 

Day after day, there is so much value given, it’s like a masterclass in entrepreneurship and marketing. 

Thursday's guests took the excitement to a whole new level!

If you crave inspiration from genuine, hardworking, and heart-centered individuals, then you cannot afford to miss Thursday's interview with Rodney & Amy.

It's a massive dose of motivation that will leave you fired up to conquer your dreams.

If you don’t know these two…it’s time that you do! 

RUN to that interview. 

And here's the cherry on top – Legendary Marketer has once again been recognized as one of the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Businesses in America. 

We're absolutely beaming with pride for this remarkable achievement!

Gone are the days when a formal university education was the only path to success. 

Today, we're living in an era where credibility and authority are built on real skills, not just degrees.

E-Learning isn't just a trend; it's a necessity. 

At Legendary Marketer, our students are gaining practical, valuable, and transferable marketing skills that will serve them for years, even decades to come.

We're not just another “guru” or mentor who disappears overnight or hops around from offer to offer. 

We proudly declare that we are a Leadership Factory, dedicated to your growth and success. 

So many marketers, course creators, and coaches got their first introduction to the online space right here.

Their first realization that something MORE is possible for them as they go through the challenge. 

Proud of their beginnings, their journey, and their new future. 

And you, regardless of what stage you're in, in your journey…

We are here to guide, teach, and inspire you as well. 

I’ve also had many of you reach out asking if you can share this news with your communities…

The answer…ABSOLUTELY! 

Below are various links you can use to share the Inc. 5000 news:

Your Weekly Legend for July 9th-15th

I witnessed a really cool moment this week.

As I was talking with one of our guests prior to the show, she shared something absolutely beautiful…

“As of this week, my husband is now home full time.”

It wasn’t just what she said, it was how she said it.

I could feel her heart bursting out of her chest.

She was filled with joy, care, and excitement for this new change within her family life.

16 months after starting this journey of building her own digital marketing business, Em’s husband got to choose to spend more time with family, more time with his spouse and no longer miss out on his kids growing up.

He got to choose time.

Here’s the thing though…

When starting out on this journey, Em’s main focus wasn’t necessarily to retire her husband or make a specific amount of money.

She first wanted to be able to homeschool her kids.

She wanted to be able to have a date night without guilt.

She wanted to end the crazy work hours her and her husband were doing and never feeling like they were getting ahead. 

There was a badass version of Em waiting to be unlocked.

She knew there could be MORE for her and her family.

As her business grew, her goals did too.

As her mindset evolved, even more was revealed of what’s truly possible.

She had big dreams when she started, but also smaller goals to run for.

All of this came from a day 1 with zero followers in March of 2022.

She didn’t have a secret massive following.

She didn’t have years of marketing experience under her belt.

She was a busy mom looking for more.

More time

More freedom

More peace

Sometimes when we are wanting massive changes in our life, we forget what the start is going to look and feel like.

We all have a day 1.

We all have a period of time of zero followers.

We all have that first choice to make…to implement or sit on the sidelines and watch.

If you committed to working on your business every single day for 16 months, where do you think you’d be?

Heck if you committed to focused time everyday on your business…

Imagine what’s possible 6 months from now.

Do me a favor and think about your goals today.

Answer the questions below and make sure none of them include a dollar amount.

GO DEEPER!

What are some things you want to be able to do for yourself?

For your family?

What’s a smaller goal you can set for yourself 90 days from now?

What’s a 6 month goal?

12 month goal?

2 year goal?

Write these down and look at this each day you sit down to work on your business.

Em and Dave really dove into a ton of topics during Thursday’s episode.

Watch this interview asap.

It’s an absolute must watch!

Your Weekly Legend for June 25th- July 1st

I saw a comment recently…  

“I  wish they had more “real” people on as guests on Wake Up Legendary.”

To be honest…

It kinda threw me off.

Do they think we have advanced AI conversations with bots?

Maybe they think we have hired actors? 

I have watched WUL put out over 750 episodes (752 to be exact) of interviews with real students who are now digital marketers.

Maybe because no one, I mean no one can pull a new student Monday-Friday for years to even hold these types of conversations.  

But beyond that, we had a guest that I think will finally fit the “real” category. 

She shared that her house is usually a mess. 

She shared that showering daily isn’t required to show up online. 

She even shared that there was a scorpion above her head on the ceiling during the interview. 

I mean, that’s pretty dang real! 

Multiple times she describes herself as just a normal person, with normal issues, and not trying to be some pinterest mom that she just isn’t. 

She also shared…

How she battled with self confidence.

How she created content from the beginning when she was not feeling like an expert. 

How she stays consistent in a daily schedule of a busy family. 

Oh and when I say share….I mean she spilled all the tea. 

She gave a ton of gold bars that will immediately help you understand what this journey looks like, that you can indeed show up authentically to your audience with confidence. 

This is an interview every single person in our community needs to watch. 

Please head over and watch Meagan’s interview with Dave. WATCH IT NOW

She’s as real as it gets. 

(And a pretty darn cool person!)

Then set your calendar alerts and don’t miss a single episode of Wake Up Legendary. We go live on Facebook Monday-Friday at 10am EST.

Every day, we have a guest that is “real.” 

I promise no AI bots or hired actors!

These interviews provide absolutely massive value, community, support, knowledge, and inspiration.

As always…

Stay Legendary!

March 19th – 25th, 2023

Your Weekly Legend for March 19th-25th

There’s lots a talk surrounding a possible TikTok ban. It’s sorta the elephant in the room.

I'm not going to dive into the political or the Meta business agenda behind this today…

Instead let’s dive into what this possible ban could mean for you and your business as far as day to day operations. (Plus at the end I share a few algorithm updates!)

First and foremost…If you’re setting up and growing your business properly, it will end up as a minimal shift.  

It’s really not much different than an account getting shut down and learning how to build traffic on other platforms. 

When it comes to using ANY social media platform, we gotta remember this: 

  • We’re using social media platforms rent-free
  • They’re borrowed spaces
  • We don’t own them
  • We don’t control them
  • We only utilize and learn how to capitalize from them 

A possible TikTok ban is not an excuse to quit.
(or an excuse to not get started)

No platform determines the existence of your business. 

While it's understandable to feel nervous about losing access to such a popular platform, I want to put your worries at ease.  

How consumers interact online will constantly change and evolve. 

Here are a few reminders to settle your TikTok nerves surrounding a possible ban. 

First, it’s important to remember that social media is just a tool in the marketer's arsenal. Just like we use tools/software for funnels and emails. Social media platforms are traffic tools. 

Yes, there’s no denying, TikTok has proven to be a powerful tool for reaching your target audience fast, BUT it’s not the only social media platform available. Other platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and even Twitter can also reach a wider audience. 

There are wildly successful online businesses that still haven’t touched TikTok. 

Is it useful…absolutely. Is it required for any level of success…nope. It’s not your only option. 

It never was and never will be your only option. 

If TikTok makes you uneasy…don’t use it! Find the platform you are most comfortable with using and begin to build your business there. New social media platforms are always emerging, and the next big thing could be just around the corner.

Secondly, even if TikTok were to be banned, its creators and audience don’t disappear with it. 

The creators still exist, and the consumer desire for short-form content is still there, it will just move to a different platform. 

This is why it's CRUCIAL to BUILD YOUR LIST. Your email list is completely YOURS. You own it. No one can take that piece of communication from you. Your list and followers can easily move with you to the next hottest platform with ease when you utilize your list. By staying adaptable and open to new ideas and strategies, marketers can ensure that they’re always using the most effective tools available to reach their target audience.

This is also why it’s important to stay plugged into an online community, always be open to learning and growing, and stay ahead of the ever-changing world of online marketing. 

Lastly…

Every single business needs marketing to survive. 

 

Learning marketing skills, and staying up to date on new trends, will always keep you in demand. 

If TikTok disappears tomorrow, consumers will still be buying, consuming content, and still looking for recommendations…where that happens will just shift. 

Be ready and open to shift with it utilizing the marketing skills you're learning. 

One way to stay on top of all things marketing is to listen to success stories, tips, and mindset advice that’s shared in each episode of Wake Up Legendary. 

Be sure to check out the recordings from last week and check out the guests below for this week.

As always…

Stay Legendary!
– JoAnn

P.S. ALERT: CONTENT AND ALGORITHM UPDATES! If you're on TT you probably noticed there's a shift in the algorithm…they are now rewarding content creators that create LONGER videos. Take a peak and you'll notice longer videos are landing on your FYP. If you're on TT, give a few longer videos a try if you've only been creating shorter ones. 

P.P.S. Instagram has released new updates! A whole collection of updates and recommendations were shared on a zoom between IG and top creators for what they want to see right now. (Remember marketing is always changing!) Here are two juicy updates you need to be aware of: 1.IG wants to see accounts posting stories daily 2. IG is rewarding accounts that post to the grid daily. (So it's time to kick up how often you post)

March 5th – 11th, 2023

Your Weekly Legend for March 5th-11th

Everyone hates a bully…but we all have that one. That one bully that knows our biggest worries, fears, and weaknesses.

On top of all of that, this particular bully is the ultimate killer of our dreams. It’s like they must have some secret access to our heads and can hear our deepest worries. Like they have some special spell or mind-reading gift that provides full access to every thought, dream, fear, and worry that crosses our mind.

Well, no special gifts are needed here. Your biggest bully, well frankly, is YOU. 

We are our biggest enemy.

We are the one that stops action toward dreams. We are the ones creating excuses why we can’t do this or that, and ultimately quit. We are the little voice repeating our biggest worries over and over to ourselves. 

So how do we overcome it? You gotta put your dreams above your fear. 

As Dave shared this week…You gotta show up and glow up! Show up for yourself and keep growing into greatness.

A perfect example of this came from the comedian Jo Koy. 

Just this week I was watching his most recent special. This guy always leaves me absolutely rolling in laughter! Like full-on tears streaming down my face. He was absolutely hilarious and then a small switch happened in the middle of the show…

He shared a piece of his story with the audience that I didn’t realize. 

This man was turned down by Netflix 8 times. 

His ultimate dream for himself was to one day have a Netflix special. And they kept telling him no. He wasn’t going to stop. He finally decided, maybe they need to see it first? 

He was going to fund the entire project upfront, do all the production, all the editing required, and use pretty much all of his savings to create it. 

It was going to be risky. 

It was scary as hell. 

At this point, he had already been turned down 7 times.

Jo Koy kept going after his dream because he couldn’t bear to show his son what it looked like to give up on a dream. 

That was his “WHY.”

He didn't want his son to learn that quitting on a dream was an option.

2 days before they filmed Jokoy’s first special, Netflix called again…

He got excited…

Maybe it’s all finally coming together. 

The rep shared…We heard you are producing your own show, we just need you to know…

We really DON’T want it so if there’s time to cut your losses, do it. 

Jo was crushed.

The bully's voice in his head got really loud. He could listen to the voice inside his head telling him to quit, or he could listen to his heart knowing he needed to keep going after his dream. He needed to show his son, no one determines your destiny. He filmed that special. His team then shopped it around to different networks. 

Netflix called again…”We want it.” 

Fast forward to today, Jo Koy now has 4 specials on this network. His journey to a Netflix special is a powerful example of the importance of believing in oneself. To turn off the bully voice, and listen to the cheerleader instead. Even when faced with repeated rejection, Jo Koy never gave up on his dream. His perseverance and determination ultimately paid off.

Could you imagine where he would be right now if he walked away and quit after the first no…

Or the 3rd

Or the 5th

Or the 7th…

Or the 8th…when he took on so much risk with no guarantee of success? He believed in himself and his abilities. I think today is a great day to tell the bully in your own head to shut it and let that cheerleader have a bit more voice. 

One way to start, listen to success stories, tips, and mindset advice that’s shared in each episode of Wake Up Legendary. Be sure to check out the recordings from last week and check out the guests below for this week. 

As always…

Stay Legendary!

February 19th – 25th, 2023

Your Weekly Legend for February 19th-25th

Recently, I was out for lunch with my youngest daughter. We were seated at a window that gave me the perfect view of a gentleman on the center divider of the road with a cardboard sign asking for money.

The sign read “Lost My Job – Anything helps”

As a new set of cars arrived at the light, no one was donating. We would watch and chat, and red light after red light…zero donations.

We carried on with our meal, and suddenly my daughter taps my hand and says “mom look!”

I glance at the gentleman on the center divider and while the light was green and cars were zooming by, he had whipped out a sharpie marker, flipped over his piece of cardboard, and was writing.

By the time that light turned red, and cars were stopped…

The sharpie was put away and a new HOOK was presented…

His sign now read “Short on cash for food & weed – please help”

OHHH we got a whole new angle now! My daughter and I were intrigued. I was impressed. Soon enough..he was given a donation.

The new hook was working.

Ya see, the ultimate goal of a cash donation was the same. Just like the ultimate goal for us marketers is a follow, an opt-in, and a conversion. This gentleman realized his previous approach was not converting on this given day, with this audience, so he tested out a new hook. And this one converted!

What can we learn here?

Don’t be afraid to try new types of content. Don’t worry about testing different hooks or captions. Don’t stress if the video “you saw another creator do” isn’t working for you…always be testing new approaches.

When you test multiple versions of your content you can compare their performance and see which ones are resonating with your target audience. Secondly, testing hooks, headlines, copy, captions, and various looks helps you optimize your content for different platforms.

For instance, a video that performs well on Facebook may not have the same impact on Instagram or Tiktok.

Thirdly, testing multiple versions of your content allows you to stay relevant and up-to-date with your customers' changing preferences. By regularly testing your content and analyzing the results, you can adapt your messaging to meet your customers' changing needs and preferences.

Ultimately, you just won’t know unless you keep trying, keep testing, and keep going.

That gentleman on the center divider was persistent. He was testing the performance of different offers to his audience right before our eyes. We as marketers must be willing to do the same.

 

As promised here is your TTT – Tip To Try…This Week!

TEST. YOUR. FUNNEL.

Above I talked about testing out new content, but this is different. Make sure everything is working as it should. Test the link from your social pages, test each button, test your autoresponder. Every time you update any piece of the process…test again.

PLUS, test it on desktop AND mobile.

How does everything look? Is everything working how you want them to?

TEST. TEST. TEST.

Now scroll down and check out all that's happening this week at Legendary Marketer.
