In this episode, we discuss some of the myths of online business. We cut through the junk and let you know the truth about how online business can make money. One of the most important places to start is figuring out who your customer is and where you're going to find them. You truly need to know and understand their problems and be able to effectively deliver solutions that work. Promoting products online means providing value. Spend time investing in others and as you do you'll receive knowledge and information that others are giving in those same communities. [Tweet "Stop trying to trick your customers into buying.

Tanya, who was on the podcast recently and she is also a member of our Flip Your Life Community. She says, "On Monday, I added the low cost introductory offer and reminder emails to my autoresponder sequence and so far I have 13 sales and one upsale to my membership. I am so excited about this. It is so fun to see that it is working. And the real bonus is that I am hoping these sales will continue since everyone will be getting the autoresponder emails at different times depending on when they came into my list. Of course the ultimate goal is to get more people into my membership so hopefully that'll pick up a bit but for now I am happy with one since Monday.
