Summary

Need ideas on how to turn one-off sales into consistent and predictable online income? Listening in on today's episode might give you ideas as we help our guest take his online business to the next level. At the Flipped Lifestyle, we host a podcast every week that features a member from our Flip Your Life online community, where we sit them down, go over the challenges they're having with their online business and come up with a solution to take it to the next level. In this episode, we have college football coach and self-published author, Keith Grabowski. Known for his great offense and strategic trick plays, Keith has been sharing his 27 years of coaching expertise with the online community through his website: thecoachesedge.com. He has a lot of content, more than 10,000 twitter followers and bagged 4th best trick play in college football hosted by ESPN last year. Ideally, Keith wants to rely on his online business when he leaves the grind, so we lay out the strategies necessary to generate a stable, predictable and growing income. We let Keith in on the advantages of using accessibility and convenience as his membership site's greatest sales point. We talk about targeting audiences with the highest interest level to build his email list and get his twitter followers transitioned into his community, getting his customers in the bandwagon, and then drawing the line.   [Tweet "Accessibility and Convenience will be one of the biggest selling points to your people"] [Tweet "Segment your mailing list based on the kind people interested in specific parts of your content."] You will learn: The importance of organizing your content. Setting foundations and goals for the membership. How to strategically place free content to guide the audience towards your paywall. Compartmentalizing your audience to create a high success email list. Targeting your existing core market through social media for better transition rates.

online business. And today we're going to have a great guest on, a guy I've known for quite a while now. Our guest today on the Flip Lifestyle podcast is community member Keith Grabowski. Keith, welcome to the show. Well, thanks for having me. Yes, we're so happy to have you here today. You have talked to Shane before, actually on a different podcast. On the the coach XO show back in the day because

1:12.5

Keith is a man after my own heart he's a he's a coach of the pig skin yeah and so you've been

1:18.7

a member for quite a while as well and we're happy to have you here today welcome and let's start

1:24.3

out by telling all the listeners a little bit about you and your family and what it is that you do online.

1:30.8

Well, I've been coaching now. I think it's 27 years. And a while back, I guess it was 2012, I wrote a self-published book on IBooks, iTunes, IBooks author. And, you know, it was the first coaching book out there that had video included in it. You know, it's definitely taking root. I had done a couple books on my own. I had been waiting for the coaching education market to pick up on it. No one did. And so basically I went out and signed some coaches on to produce materials with me. And that's kind of the way I've existed there. I still do

2:02.3

some of my own writing. I have my own website. But what I've realized is like everything I do is very

2:07.8

inconsistent in terms of the income. And, you know, what I'm trying to do and produce a consistent

2:13.6

income. I am a college football coach and I enjoy doing that. But at some point, you know, I'd like to leave the grind and have something that I can rely on there. And, you know, I know, in talking to a few guys, some community members and other people who you know that I have everything set up here to be able to do something really good. I'm just not focused the right way. So that's kind of what I'm looking to do.

2:35.3

Yeah, it sounds like, you know, I remember when you were doing the Ibook thing when I was back doing Coach XO and football coaching. And we have a close personal friend named Joe Daniel over at football defense.com, which I think is Joe Danielfutball.com now. And, you know, there are a lot of people that we interact with in our community that are doing sports-related memberships, especially around coaching, football, basketball, things like that. And I know you've got a ton of content. You've got a lot of things out there. And as we've talked over the years, I think that you kind of early adopted into some stuff, like you said said that didn't catch on as much as you thought it would.

3:09.0

And then you tried to go head to head with some of the big coaching publishing companies, which is an uphill battle.

3:14.2

So now the goal is to shift gears and say, well, wait a minute, I've got all this content.

3:19.1

How can I turn this into a personal brand, get the coaches involved, you know, those thousand guys out there that want to be a part of my content and how can we monetize that into a stable, predictable growing income. Is that pretty much where we're at right now? That's exactly it. Yep. Okay. All right. Well, let's jump into your questions, Keith. I think we've got a good grasp on this. I've been looking forward to this call a week because, you know, just talking balls my thing. But, but, uh, I'm really looking forward to this. And I think we can definitely help you, uh, get that next step going toward your goal. So what's your first question about your current iteration of your online business? Well, in looking at everything right now, I think my first question really is what's the setup here. And I've been
