Launching Your Kajabi Course – My Proven Steps for a Successful and Profitable Launch

Welcome to an exciting chapter of our Kajabi journey, where we’ll unveil the thrilling process of launching your online course to the world.

Get ready to discover my proven steps for a successful and profitable launch!

Step 1: Setting Clear Objectives and Goals 

Before anything else, define your launch objectives and goals. What do you aim to achieve with this launch? 

Increased enrollments, revenue targets, or building your email list? 

Having clear goals in mind will guide your strategy and keep you focused throughout the process.

Step 2: Building Buzz with Pre-Launch Marketing 

Create a sense of anticipation and excitement around your course by implementing pre-launch marketing strategies. 

Utilize social media, email marketing, and content marketing to tease your audience with sneak peeks and valuable insights about your course’s content and benefits.

Step 3: Building a High-Converting Sales Page 

Your sales page is your virtual storefront, so make it compelling and persuasive. Craft compelling copy, highlight the benefits of your course, and include testimonials or success stories to build trust with potential students. 

Don’t forget to incorporate your irresistible call-to-action buttons!

Step 4: Preparing Course Materials and Content 

Ensure that all your course materials and content are ready for delivery before the launch. This includes videos, PDFs, quizzes, and any bonus materials you’ve promised. 

Take the time to test your content to ensure a seamless learning experience for your students.

Step 5: Creating Promotional Content 

Diversify your promotional content to reach a wider audience. Consider creating blog posts, podcasts, videos, or hosting webinars related to your course topic. 

Share valuable insights and establish yourself as an authority in your niche to attract potential students.

Step 6: Hosting Live Launch Events 

Live launch events, such as webinars or Q&A sessions, can be powerful tools for engaging your audience and driving conversions. 

These events allow you to address questions, showcase the value of your course, and create a sense of urgency to encourage immediate enrollments.

Step 7: Implementing a Countdown Timer 

Harness the power of urgency by implementing a countdown timer on your sales page. This will create a fear of missing out and prompt potential students to take action before the launch period ends.

Step 8: Collaborating with Affiliates 

Leverage the Kajabi affiliate program or collaborate with influencers in your niche to extend your reach and attract a broader audience. Affiliates can help drive traffic and generate additional enrollments, increasing the overall success of your launch.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You’re now equipped with my proven steps and checklist for a successful and profitable Kajabi course launch. 

Remember to set clear objectives, create pre-launch buzz, and prepare your course materials meticulously. Engage your audience with live launch events, promotional content, and affiliate partnerships to maximize your impact.

5 Enemies To Your Success

We’ve covered a lot in these newsletters so far…

But today, I want to share with you some common enemies to your success.

Most of these are within your control, and a few aren’t…

But that doesn’t mean you can’t do anything about them.

So, get ready to discover 5 common enemies to success and how to overcome them.

Why Your Comfort Zone Is Your Income Zone

I teach this in my High Ticket Closer Certification™

This especially applies to closers because for some people talking to strangers is uncomfortable.

But, the more strangers they talk to, the more they’ll close, and the more money they’ll make.

It’s really that simple.

But what’s simple in theory isn’t simple in practice.

So, where are you stuck in your comfort zone in life and business?

The comfort zone has a way of sneaking up on you and keeping you there, unless you’re actively working to stay out of it.

In fact, around 80% of people avoid change even if that change is positive or beneficial.

So, you’re not alone.

Take note of things you’re comfortable with, and then devise a plan to get out of your comfort zone.

It’s likely you know what to do, you’re just not doing it.

For instance, everyone knows how to lose weight, but very few actually do it.

Let’s move on.

What Is Learned Helplessness?

People who experience learned helplessness always look for something to blame.

The economy is bad…

My partner doesn’t want me to to change…

My boss doesn’t want me to progress in my job.

You fill in the blank.

Of course, these are all real obstacles in their mind, but when it comes down to it, they’re looking for a scapegoat as to why they can’t change.

So if you’re in this position, recognize that some of the biggest companies like General Motors, IBM, Whatsapp, and many more started during a recession.

I’ve had mentees who worked a full time job with young kids and a family who transitioned from their job into full time closing positions.

If you want it bad enough you’ll find a way, if not, you’ll find an excuse.

Why The Path Of Least Resistance Is Best Left Alone

I get it, we all want success YESTERDAY.

We all want to take the easiest path to our destination.

But the easy path never brings you what you want and everything worthwhile takes time.

No one achieves success overnight.

Behind every success story are months and years of struggle, failure, and self-doubt.

But the important thing is you adjust your strategy as needed… fail forward… and never give up.

Why You Must Upgrade Your Beliefs

One of the biggest reasons more people don’t achieve their life goals is they have preconceived ideas about what’s possible for them.

If your mindset doesn’t grow, you’ll never grow, and to get what you want out of life, you must grow, wouldn’t you agree?

This is also true for you if you’ve already achieved some success.

What got you here won’t get you there.

Every level of success requires multiple mindset and skillset upgrades to get to the next level.

Some of the best ways to upgrade your mindset is by spending time with people who are decades ahead of you.

If you’re making $5K per month, you want to hang around people making $50K-$100K+ per month, not $10K per month.

My first mentor Alan let me spend time with him and his friends who all made multi-millions each year, and it expanded my thinking like nothing I’d ever experienced.

Why Progression > Perfection

When you first start out in anything, there’s a tendency to want things to be PERFECT.

You want to release the perfect video…

Have the perfect closing call…

Write the perfect sales page…

But in my opinion, perfection is paralysis.

You’ll never get anywhere if you strive for perfection.

What you’re looking for is progress.

As long as you progress a little bit each day, week, month etc, eventually you’ll look back on where you are now and barely recognize yourself.

I always say, “you can’t have quality without quantity.”

Remember, you don’t have to get it perfect, you just have to get it going.

So make a start on your goals and reassess every 3-6 months to track your progress.

Why Your Environment Is More Powerful Than Your Willpower

If you’ve been following me for a while you’ll know how powerful I believe your environment is.

It will truly make or break your success.

I’m sure you’ve heard the quote “You’re the average of the 5 people you hang around most.”

Now, there may not be any significance to the number 5, but you can be damn sure if your friends are coasting through life, you’ll end up doing the same.

On the flipside, if you had just 2-3 ambitious, driven, and committed friends all with similar goals and aspirations, my guess is your life would change pretty quickly.

So, where can you find people like this?

You could try various entrepreneurial meetup groups, or paid business events etc.

Why You Must Have More NON-NEGOTIABLES In Your Life

I was going to keep it to 5 enemies to success, but here’s a bonus.

Something I teach in my High Income Copywriter Certification™, is the idea of having non-negotiables in your life.

Most people simply don’t have enough non-negotiables in their lives.

This means, things you do every day without fail, that you know will improve your life.

For my mentees in HIC it was studying high converting marketing pieces every day and writing copy.

For you, it could be anything you believe will take your life to the next level.

So, what are the 2-3 things you’ll make time for every day no matter how busy you are?

Make a small list and make sure you do them every day without fail.

In Closing…

There are many more enemies to success I simply couldn’t write about in this newsletter…

But I’ve given you enough to work on that once removed will add huge value to your life in the short, medium, and long term.

To your success,

Dan Lok

Is Closing The Skill For You?

In business, nothing happens until a sale is made…

This is why I believe sales is the #1 business skill.

So, in this week’s newsletter we’ll talk all about closing sales.

My goal with this newsletter is to help you decide whether closing is the skill for you to develop this year, so you can go on to impact businesses with your skills…

And in doing so, create a financially successful, location independent life you love.

So to kick this newsletter off, click here to watch this video on the Art of Closing Sales >>

When you watch it, you’ll discover the 3 things you could get from a sales interaction, and how to use a “No” to your advantage.

The 3 Levels of Closing

When you hear the word ‘closing’, what comes to mind?

Perhaps you think of someone selling over the phone.

Perhaps it’s someone selling to a small group of people.

Or perhaps they’re selling from the stage to a large crowd.

Whatever you think closing is right now…

I want you to watch this video so you get an idea of the 3 levels of closing and where you should get started >> …

And why even if you have aspirations to get to level 3, you shouldn’t skip any steps. 

How To Close At The Beginning Of The Call

How you start your sales call is very important.

But you may be surprised to know that the closing process starts BEFORE you even get on the phone with your prospect.

Now some of the things you’ll discover in a moment may be out of your control as a closer…

Because the business owner will have to take care of them.

But imagine how invaluable you’ll be to a business you close for if you make some of these suggestions?

If you want to know how to “pre-sell” your prospects before you get on the phone, then click here to watch this powerful video >>

This video will also give you a good idea of what to look for in a potential client, so you know who you should do business with.

5 Powerful Questions To Ask Your Prospects

If you’ve been following my work for a while, you’ll know I think old school sales methods are out of date and no longer work.

With that said, there are still salespeople who use these methods, and all they do is talk AT the prospect.

They get through the entire presentation without knowing anything about their prospect.

What sets average salespeople apart from high ticket closers are questions.

So, here’s a VERY compelling video for you >>

As you watch, don’t underestimate the POWER of these simple questions.

How To Use Reverse Psychology and Catch Your Prospect Off Guard

When you speak with prospects, you’re not always going to get people who are 10 out of 10 and ready to take action on your offer.

Oftentimes, people know they have a problem that needs solving so they book in a call…

But they’re not too keen on giving you the info you need, let alone taking action to solve their problem.

Why?

Because the thought of things being different to what they’re used to scares them.

So in order to get your prospect’s needs from below a 5 to above a 5, you must use what I call reverse psychology.

Reverse psychology is a high level technique that catches your prospect off guard and almost forces them to tell you the truth.

Because if you didn’t know, PROSPECTS LIE all the time.

How To Master Your Vocal Tonality and Close More Sales

Whether you’re selling in person, over zoom, on the phone or on stage, your vocal tonality is KEY to your success.

But if you’re selling on the phone where they can’t see you, then your vocal tone is EVERYTHING.

So how to ensure you inject emotion into your closing calls and speak with the right tonality that makes your prospects want to buy?

Luckily, I’ve got you covered.

There are countless things you NEVER want to say in a closing call, but the bottom line is this…

Never sound like a typical salesperson.

If you do, you’ll lose the sale in the first few seconds.

For an example of what NOT to sound like, watch this short video >>

As far as vocal tone goes, there are many tones you could use at different times during your sales calls.

I can’t possibly address them all here, but if you want to know how to inject emotion with tonality into your sales calls, then you’ll love this video >>

What To Do When The Prospect Says No 

As you may have seen in the first video of the newsletter, there are 3 things you can get out of a sales call.

  1. A Yes
  2. A No
  3. A Lesson

Now, a “no” isn’t always a bad thing, especially if you’re speaking with a prospect you think would be a nightmare client.

But what if they are someone you’d like to work with?

Then you can do what I suggest in this video >>

If you implement this tactic, you’ll gain more business over time and make more money, and you’ll see why when you watch the video.

One Secret To Close More On The Phone 

I’ve been closing on the phone for over a decade, and out of all the tricks and tactics I’ve learned in that time…

There is one secret that makes the biggest difference in your sales calls.

This trick switches your frame from the salesperson to the expert, and completely changes the game.

It’s easy to implement and if you want to know what it is, then click here >>

If I could give you just ONE secret that makes the BIGGEST difference to your sales calls, it would be the one in this video >>

In Closing…

There’s a lot that goes into the perfect closing call.

What I’ve given you here merely scratches the surface, but if you’d like to see me do a live sales roleplay then you’re in luck.

Click here for a roleplay I did with one of our audience members at a recent event of ours and get ready to take notes >>

I hope this newsletter has helped you decide whether you’d like to become a high ticket closer or not.

To your success,

For more strategies watch this:

Step 2: Factors to Consider When Setting Prices

Several factors come into play when determining the right price for your course:

  • Subscriptions: Offer monthly or annual subscriptions for ongoing access to your course, ensuring recurring revenue.
  • Bundles and Upsells: Create enticing bundles of multiple courses or additional resources, enticing students with added value.

Step 4: Striking the Optimal Price Point

Finding the sweet spot in pricing is a delicate balance between attracting students and ensuring profitability:

  • Test and Iterate: Experiment with different price points and analyze how each affects enrollment and revenue.
  • Promotions and Discounts: Use time-limited promotions or discounts to create a sense of urgency and entice potential students.
  • Value Communication: Clearly communicate the value and benefits of your course to justify the price to prospective students.

Step 5: Monitoring Course Performance

After setting your course price, closely monitor its performance:

  • Analyze Enrollment Rates: Track how your pricing affects enrollment rates and make adjustments if needed.
  • Feedback and Surveys: Gather feedback from students about the course value and experience to identify areas for improvement.

Remember, with the power of premium pricing strategies, you can elevate your course’s value and attract eager students willing to invest in their transformation.
