The undecideds - give them samples if you can 👍🏽

I wanna thank Kimberly Pittman Schultz for for this idea saying, well, you know what? I've got some recorded teaching some practices as part of my program. Also, I have an inspirational, like, welcome video. Maybe I should give access to the 1st week's teach jeans as well as an inspirational video to the undecided people so they can kinda see what it's like to make a decision. I think that's a brilliant idea.
I I don't think it's a requirement because if if people are willing to enroll I mean, again, remember, shorten the process make it simpler for enrollment. If people don't have to watch all these things before they like, that's a that's a mistake too to say, well, before he sign up before he even decide, please watch these, you know, 3 hours of video or or even this half hour video, whatever it is. Like, the less you can have them do for them to say yes, the better. And yes, brilliant. For the undecided, hey, you know what?
You're you're still not sure? Here's Now maybe you're still not sure. Here's 5 hours of video. Right? But you say you're still not sure.
Here's here's half hour. Here's 1 hour sample. If you want more samples, let me know. I'd be happy to give that to you. And then, of course, given the very best sample, you can that gives a feeling of the program.
So, brilliant idea, go ahead and give that a try. And and if you have any other suggestions for the undecided, so you can also comment below. Thanks.
