Hey there,
Welcome to another edition of The Digital Entrepreneur Newsletter.
This week’s podcast recommendation is an episode of “Copyblogger FM” and it will help you strengthen one of your most important skills – selling.
Too many content creators have amazing audiences and a wonderful product or service.
But they fall apart at the “last mile” of selling to their customers or clients.
In this episode, Sonia Simone discusses why starting with a product idea can be an expensive mistake, why people don’t buy (even if they love you), why nothing “sells itself,” and much more including how to find out what’s keeping people from moving forward with the sale.

2. Educate your potential customers.
Giving potential customers value is critical. You can do so by creating free content that is easy to consume. Plus, if you can make that content feel like a paid program, and provide them what others charge big money for, you start creating a stronger bond with them.

4. Think of happiness in a social manner.
The modern world promotes a culture of “be yourself.” But if you want to be happy, that isn’t always the best idea. To find more joy, spend a little less time being you and little more time being us.
