Summary

Today's guest on the podcast is Flipped Lifestyle community member, Cindy Dunn! Cindy runs a membership site called The Foreign Language Library Online, which has now reached 10 members! The best part is that Cindy has gotten these members without running any ads!

Cindy started her website as a hobby site ten years ago, but it started to grow into something that she wanted to monetize. She started building her email list, and, amazingly, all 10 people on her list are currently members!

One of the things that has been holding Cindy back are technical issues. She has her membership on Wordpress, which requires lots of plugin upgrades and extra attention to make sure that everything works properly. In this episode, she and Shane Sams discuss whether she should stay on Wordpress or move her membership site to another platform. They also discuss some Facebook ad strategies and best practices.

Find out more about Cindy and her business at thefllo.com!

In today's episode you'll learn:

How entrepreneurs can stop self-sabotaging

How to get past technical issues that hold your membership site back

Facebook ad strategies

It ain't gotta be perfect; it's just gotta be done!

Hey, y'all. I'm Shane Sam's the host of the flipped lifestyle podcast. Super excited to be back today with another member of the flipped lifestyle community community. On today's podcast, I welcome community member Cindy Dunn. Cindy had an amazing post inside the flip lifestyle community forums the other day. She posted a big picture from the Wizard of Oz. It said it was the yellow brick road going off toward the rainbow into the sunset.

0:24.3

And Cindy said, I'm on the yellow brick road now for sure.

0:26.9

I have my first paying member.

0:29.1

Not only that, she signed up yesterday.

0:33.2

When I saw the PayPal status was pending, I assume there was something wrong on my end.

0:36.0

But she emailed me to say, hey, I love this so much.

0:38.1

This sounds like exactly what I was looking for.

0:58.0

I want to go ahead and sign up for six full months. Cindy just followed the Flip Lifestyle blueprint. Put her product out there. Somebody signed up and was like, no, I'm not giving you enough money. I need to give you more money. Cindy goes on to say, I've accomplished more in the last three months as a member here in the Flip Lifestyle community than I have in the three years before joining since trying online business.

0:58.8

To every single member of the community who is striving and hoping to change your life and serve your members, keep going.

1:03.6

Those members are waiting for you out there.

1:06.0

I can see that now.

1:07.3

Thank you to the Flip Lifestyle team for supporting all of us.

1:09.9

And thank you, Shane and Jocelyn, for building this community. That is why we built the Flip Lifestyle community, y'all, is to help real people change their lives with online business with memberships. And when we see somebody taking action in the Flip Lifestyle community, guess what we do? We reach out to them and say, hey, you come on the podcast, you're taking actions, you're getting results. Let us help you figure out your next steps. So that's what I'm going to do for Cindy today.

1:31.8

I'm going to let you guys listen in so maybe you can figure out your next steps as well. On today's

1:36.4

podcast, we're going to talk about self-sabotage. What happens when you get a little success?

1:41.0

And then you keep sabotaging. You keep stopping. you freeze and you don't take that next step. We're also going to talk a lot about technology today. What kind of tech do you need to actually run a membership? Cindy's got herself into kind of a convoluted mess with how she's hosting her website, how she's hosting her membership. So we're going to clean that up today. We're going to tell you how we solve the tech problem in our business. And we're also going to dabble into some perfectionism. I know perfectionism holds a lot of people back. Cindy is extremely competent at her job that she does in her real world full-time career. And that's kind of spilling over into this new area of online business. It's kind of holding her back. She's holding herself to that same standard. I'm going to help Cindy overcome all these problems and challenges today.

2:18.1

I'm going to give her some next steps.

2:19.4

And I know you are going to find your next steps as well.
