With all that Substack offers, why would one still need a separate website? 🤔 2:15

If you don't need to have very customized website design, then perhaps Substack can serve your website needs :)

@George Kao I signed up for tomorrow. It's about Substack. I had someone recommend my Substack and I'm not sure about the overlap in our communities. I messaged him and asked for a Zoom meeting and he hasn't responded. I'm feeling concerned and wondering if I should stop him from recommending it. Thanks

@Fi Kahani As far as I know, there's no way for you to stop it on your side - he would have to do it. Without knowing more I'd probably say to let it go. Even if it doesn't seem like a good fit, you never know who will subscribe (from his recommendations) who could be a great fit. I mean it's like out in the internet in general, any old joe shmoe can highly recommend your substack and you wouldn't even know :)

This is very similar to UX research which I do for clients! Cool to see

overwhemeld by MDC data? 3:28
Overwhelmed with info from your MDCs?

Once you have multiple MDCs, it can be difficult to integrate everything they say...   When I'm overwhelmed, I apply temporary constraints. In this case, it would be something like this: "If I can just integrate the 3 best tidbits from this call, I'll consider it successful." Keep doing market discovery calls, and just keep integrating a bit more every time. Your offers will keep getting more aligned! In the next few lessons, I'll give you some ways to integrate the potentially vast amount of info. Always remember: gentle, deep breaths. Step by joyful step, you can accomplish anything :)

I do not really know where to post this question, 

@George Kao, so I will give it a shot here.

I have started to look at the results from my small number of MDCs (2 calls to be specific). That has inspired me to sharpen, change and regroup my ERIs. Do you recommend I use the adapted ERIs for the next MDCs? Or do you recommend sticking to the original ones for a few more calls to make sure the changes are a good idea? Or stick to the old ones in order to maintain comparability across calls? (I am a social science researcher by training, hence the last question, I guess :D)


Thanks in advance!

@Sina Birkholz if it was me I'd want to save time, and just use the updated ERIs for my next few calls. But yes, you're right that the more calls you do, the more accurate the data, rather than changing your ideas based on an individual's unique situation. Basically, try to make decisions to what's most aligned with a big enough segment of your audience.

@Sina Birkholz You didn't ask me, but I would say to start with the old ones and end with the new ones - a more non-dual approach!

Very helpful thank you 

@George Kao ! Immediately applicable to content creation for my current marketing strategy. I think I often try to cram ALL these stages into a marketing content, which is too much. With my YouTube Channel, I think it's most powerful for stages 1, 2, 3 and sometimes 4 if I'm lucky and strike a chord. The rest I need to get them to my website or sales pages. It's nice to see this so clearly.

@Clare Maxwell I totally agree!!! Sometimes I also try to do it all in one thing... It's nice to have the permission to do less

@Clare Maxwell Yes, agreed, nice to have it laid out so clearly. And I'm finding the same thing--YouTube channel is helping me  educate people, and eventually some of them are finding me and working with me via my website.
CM

@Colleen Adrian That's awesome, Colleen. Yup, I think it's a great place for educational content. I don't expect it to bring me clients...it's a ton of labor...but I have been pleasantly surprised! Now I'm moving towards doing more interviews, which are very popular with my audience. That's even more work, and I think it does more to build and strengthen my networks than it does to bring in clients (so far) but that's fine with me.

@Clare Maxwell Thanks for sharing. I just checked out your channel--so much great educational content there! And I agree re: interviews--they do take a bit of organization and work to set up, but I find them fun and it feels good to share and be of service :)

The video above was rambly... if you get something out of it, you're lucky 😆 let me know what you found helpful below...  ...and how lucky was it that the video length happens to be 11:11 ?? Unplanned, unexpected, difficult to repeat, just like luck 😊 This is a preview lesson and you can watch it by clicking the Play button above.  Enjoy :) To read or add comments, log in first... or if you haven't enrolled in any of my courses (to get logged-in access), check them out here.

I love this. I think I resist "lucky" because it is disempowering. It could lead to helplessness. I also agree with you about being able to increase chances. Thank you so much 🙏

Hi @George Kao I noticed that all my progress in this course has vanished... do you know what happened? I also tried to purchase the Joyful Productivity course but there was no button when I went to the page. I was going to email you but I saw somewhere that you prefer not to get emails so I'm hoping this comment works!

@Fi Kahani I suspect it might be that you hadn't logged into my website yet?  Let me know if the issue is still happening? 🙏🏼

@Fi Kahani for example some people are logged into my course site on desktop but not their mobile device, or vice versa...

@George Kao I'm not able to purchase this course. Maybe it's intentional?

@Fi Kahani good catch!  I have to change that.  But don't buy it because you'll be in ABC and next month you'll get access to this course as a member benefit 😊
