 Let's say you've got a new skill that you'd like to offer as part of your business and you Want to start practicing with your friends and your family great idea for those who are willing to let you practice on them Very they're very supportive and really I mean if you have some Credibility with your social media audience you could probably just put something out there on social media and say hey I've got this new modality I'm trying out or I've got this new method that I'm going to start using with clients But before I start charging for it I'd like to just offer to you those of you who want to be guinea pigs for free and Feel free to sign up here. You might get a couple of people who sign up and the great question here is how do I know? I've practiced enough and it's time to start charging for it so it's a matter of I Mean, it's it's right. I think I think it's a matter of your own sense of confidence It's like this balance between confidence and like boldness in business The more experience you have in business You know the more you you experience receiving money from people for things the more bold you get and oftentimes I just Sell something that's completely brand new now. Nowadays. I have a method around it Which is that I do a free-to-attend paid recording webinar and that's kind of how I test out new things I also have an affiliate community basically a community of supporters where I might do a beta class test like a Like beta class for me is one session I teach I teach something brand new like just one session just blah trying out new ideas and seeing If if people, you know, if I have the questions or respond to that so so I just do one Trial session and then I start selling it. That's how bold I've become because well, I've got I've got enough experience Doing this where I'm like, yeah, I think people will pay for it. Yeah, I think people will be satisfied enough I've said and I've said before that, you know, whatever it is. You're thinking about Trying out. I bet you already have more experience than the people who are going to buy from you Because you've just been thinking about it more, you know, and I bet if I give you one hour to prep you will satisfy them That's what I'm willing to bet. Okay now the confidence part is So like I said, it's a balance if you haven't had as much experience receiving money for services in your business You probably aren't as bold to say I'm gonna just sell something that's relatively new I have no no effing clue how to really do this But I'm just gonna sell it anyway It takes guts and your marketing might feel a little inauthentic Especially if you use traditional marketing tactics like, you know, you're making promises to the moon and you are Guaranteeing results or whatever ridiculous things people do, you know, have done for millennia. I don't notice in my sales pages I never promised results. I only promised a process. I Only promise you what the you're gonna get this many calls and you're going to we're gonna talk about these things I just we're gonna talk about them. I don't know if you're gonna understand anything, but we'll certainly talk about them You know, you'll sir. We'll certainly cover these topics. No idea if my communication is completely You know without skill and you don't understand anything and that's that I'm not promising that you'll get anything out of it I'm promising that I'll do something about it. I'll try So that's all of my sales pages like that. You go ahead and take a look if you if you actually see some results promise Please let me know and I got to edit that out. Okay, so I'm just gonna say Please be more bold than oh, I mean, I just not please but being bold necessarily means I'm gonna just F-ing go for it. I'm just gonna take the risk and sell it and see what happens now If you can try it out on some friends and family in exchange for feedback And specifically say that say listen I'm gonna charge for this but for those of you who are willing to give me feedback for the next 30 days You can sign up without you know, instead of paying 150 per session or a hundred dollars per session, whatever you can you can Yeah, exactly. So give me feedback and the feedback Will either be or both hey Um, I I feel like this part could probably be better or I didn't really understand that part and you're gonna get some praise You can say you know, I really liked when you did that or really like that aspect of it And if they say that you can basically reword what they said in a more testimonial kind of sounding kind of way and email them Says hey, can I use this as a testimonial? I don't need to use your name Can I use your name if you're okay with that? But if you're not okay, let me just say something generic about you mother of two from Kansas You know Financial advisor for Fortune 500 companies. I don't know if they have those kinds of things But um, they're not called financial advisors. I guess but anyway, but yeah You could you could say generic things and they'll never know when we'll ever be able to find out who that testimony came from But it's a real testimony. So hope that helps
