217 - From 7 sales to $30,000 launch (Wayne Fick interview)

We are doing something we’ve NEVER done before in 200+ episodes of our podcast… having a guest! We are excited to share this chat with our friend Wayne Fick, who, over the past two years, he transitioned from working with clients, having zero audience, to selling his own digital products, and building a calm business that he’s thoroughly enjoying.Wayne started with his first product, which sold to just 7 people. Realizing it wasn't a good fit, he pivoted and a year later generated $30,000 in sales for his Canva course! 🔗 Wayne’s business is https://createdbywayne.com 📺 Subscribe to Wayne https://youtube.com/@createdbywayneUsing our un-boring coaching advice and our Calm Launch Formula, Wayne managed to grow his email list to thousands and his YouTube channel to 20,000 subscribers in just a year and a half. He achieved all this with intention, honesty, and without using any sleazy or dishonest tactics.In this interview, we discuss picking a niche, pivoting strategies, and overcoming the mental hurdles to finally being consistent and growing an audience. We hope Wayne's story will inspire you as much as it inspired us.

215 - This is the #1 key to getting MOMENTUM

Since the beginning of the year, we’ve been on a mission to help more entrepreneurs build businesses that allow them to live a balanced life. We initially thought the key was giving our members one thing to focus on each month through our live coaching sessions. While this provided clarity, it also led to overwhelm as members felt they had to prioritize every aspect of their business equally. That's when we introduced the Un-Boring Business Roadmap to provide a clear sequence for tackling business tasks, which was a game changer.However, our thinking evolved further this year. We realized that to build a calm, profitable business, you need to focus on what we call the Calm Business Trifecta: 1) an irresistible offer that you can sell with repeatable launches; 2) an engaged audience grown with a sustainable content system; and 3) a peaceful daily schedule grounded in an 'enough' mindset. We believe that if you narrow your focus to having a successful launch of your core offer, everything else will fall into place. This approach not only helps you build momentum but also ensures that all the important elements—like a great offer, knowing your audience, and building a list—are working together in harmony.In this episode, we share a story from the early days of Made Vibrant, where Caroline was constantly creating new products instead of capitalizing on successful launches. This scattered approach led to more effort and LESS profit, the opposite of what we aim for. By focusing on repeatable launches with Wandering Aimfully, we found clarity and control, leading to increased profitability and a sense of momentum. If you're a business owner feeling overwhelmed and directionless, tune in to learn why making calm launching the center of your focus can finally get your head above water.***🚀 If you want less stressful launches, our proven plan of action, and tips to help you generate more sales, get our 4-week Calm Launch Fundamentals email series by joining our weekly newsletter at wanderingaimfully.com/newsletter

205 - How video went, what content goes where, scrapping our goals

The second week of our 5-week content extravaganza has concluded! We worked on long-form videos for Teachery and learned a ton of lessons (and had to UN-LEARN some well-worn ideas and habits too).There has been ONE clear friction point for us over the years when working together and that’s... Long-form videos. It’s some combination of our two strong creative personalities, along with having different visions for how a video should turn out, and the entire process has always been a bit bumpy for us. But, we really hoped to change that this last week!Through many conversations, many experiments, and just trying to lead with curiosity we feel like we came out of the week WAYYYYY better than expected. Sure, we only finished 2 long-form videos, but our goal was 3, so we’re happy about that. Enjoy listening to us recap our experience and we hope it helps you re-think a current spot where you might be in your business. 🔗 Links we mentioned:AI Song tool: suno.com ScreenStudio (screen recording: https://bit.ly/jasonscreenstudioCapCut (modern video editor): https://capcut.com YouTube Diary of our second week: https://youtu.be/wNCJKxzCOdM Teachery’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@teacheryco***⚙️ Give Teachery a try today for free!

204 - How we’re thinking about Teachery VIDEO content

Our 5-week content EXTRAVAGANZA is underway! We recap how our first week of creating short-form 60-second vertical videos went and give you a preview of what’s to come this week as we pivot to long-form YouTube content for Teachery.If you didn’t listen to last week’s episode, we’re embarking on a 5-week content journey to get back into the groove of posting content to grow our audiences for Teachery and Wandering Aimfully (publishing starts in 1 month). We set a goal of creating 10 short-form videos last week and we ended up with… 6! We’re actually happy with that result because we’re very new to short-form video creation and have been on a 3-year break from any short-form content creation 🥶. There were a ton of lessons learned, mistakes made, and a hilarious “first pancake” moment 🥞. For this next week, we’re shifting our focus to long-form (10-15 minute) YouTube videos for Teachery. We talk through our plans live as we recorded this since it was a last-minute shift from working on articles.Links we mentioned:ScreenStudio (screen recording: https://bit.ly/jasonscreenstudioCapCut (modern video editor): https://capcut.com YouTube Diary of our first week: https://youtu.be/llGuDm8gO1Y***⚙️ Give Teachery a try today for free!

203 - Our short-form content plan for Teachery (TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts)

Here we go, folks! We’re back on the short-form video creation train and this week we’re sharing our plan of action for Teachery. We’ve been off social media for 2.5 years, so this is quite the journey!If you missed last week’s episode, we’re embarking on a 5-week content extravaganza 😂 for our two businesses. This week is the official first week and we’re focusing solely on trying to create 10 pieces of 60-second video content to be shared on Teachery’s TikTok, YouTube, and IG account.What does creating social content initially feel like? Who is doing what? What content keywords and strategies are we focusing on? All of that is tackled in this episode.Important note: We are NOT posting this content just yet. We want to create a nice little backlog of content to have ready to post in a month-ish. We also want to get a feel for what the creation process is like and what formats/formulas of content work best for our skillsets. Next week, we’ll update you with how this week went and then we’ll move on to the next content bucket. ***⚙️ Give Teachery a try today for free!

202 - Getting back on social media (steal our content plan)

Bring on the 5-week content EXTRAVAGANZAAAA! We are getting back in the content creation saddle for the first time in almost 3 years. We’ve only been creating “nurture” content for the entirety of our WAIM business and that’s about to change!This week, we’re kicking off a big content creation project for both WAIM and Teachery. Now, Teachery is a bit easier because it’s has NEVER had content created for it (not a single article, social post, etc). But, before we just start creating content willy-nilly, we wanted to come up with a framework to make sure we’re creating the right content for the right purpose. Is our content just nurturing an existing audience? Or is our content discoverable and helping us grow our audience? Enter our… Content Salad MATRIX. We cover the two different formats of content (Long and Short) and the two different types of content (Find and Nurture). From there, we share our plan for the next 5 weeks and what type of content goes where.We’ll fully acknowledge there is a lot to unpack in this episode and that we are embarking on a big content project, but hey, wouldn’t it be boring if we didn’t swing for the fences a bit??Hope you enjoy it!***⚙️ Give Teachery a try today for free!
