  • Podcast is 🔥

    This podcast is what every DFY girlie needs to hear! I’ve been listening to Emylee for a few months now and she’s constantly in my head lol. She tells it exactly how it is. I hadn’t considered productization before listening to this podcast, but I’m pretty convinced that this would be the next step for my business and I’ll definitely work with her to assist. Thank you

  • A breath of fresh air for service pros

    Emylee shows up for service providers! She really understands the nuances and sees exactly how to create strategies and shape advice specifically for service providers. I love how she challenges a lot of the things service providers have been told to do because they've been lumped in with other online business owners. You can tell this is going to be a show that actually helps more people stay a service provider and do it in a way they love

  • Breath of fresh air (& real)

    As a DFY 1:1 service provider who is not interested in passive income or creating a course or group program… this podcast is such a breath of fresh air. There’s so much noise out there about “scaling” and it MUST be a group program,etc… getting this wisdom from Emylee is needed. Love listening and can’t wait for more!

98: You're Probably Using LinkedIn Wrong: How to Turn Conversations Into Clients with Sara Royf
Q: What's the core shift you recommend for people who want to use LinkedIn effectively without resorting to bro tactics?
Focus on authentic, permission-based conversations and use outbound outreach strategically to start conversations with people you actually want to work with, rather than blasting generic messages.
89: Why You Shouldn't Sell Your Highest-Ticket Offer First with Sandra van der Lee
Q: Do you think in-person components can justify higher-ticket back-end offers?
Yes, especially with luxury elements like weekend launches; in-person components can significantly boost perceived value and outcomes, but require careful logistics and pricing (often 15K-30K ranges).
89: Why You Shouldn't Sell Your Highest-Ticket Offer First with Sandra van der Lee
Q: How do you approach pre-vetting and lead qualification for high-ticket offers?
Utilize lower-ticket entry points and pre-qualify by ensuring buyers have prior experience with the methodology or similar results, plus using a mix of campaigns, webinars, and reps of launching to build familiarity before a premium offer.
