All of our dietary supplement clients want to scale to the next level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some are already on the way and with our help are moving faster. Others are just getting started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each situation requires a different framework of thinking to get to where they want to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But in either case, we always apply a diagnostics to evaluate the situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One the first things we want to understand is your product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Who are you targeting? (gut health, weight loss, etc.)<\/em><\/li>
  2. What makes it unique? And how does it work? (ideally there\u2019s an interesting unique mechanism) <\/em><\/li>
  3. What\u2019s the single bottle price point. (1 bottle needs to be at or around $59)<\/em><\/li>
  4. Do you have a backend? (What other products do you sell?)<\/em><\/li>
  5. What\u2019s the Customer Life Time Value? (looking for $150 – $200)<\/em><\/li>
  6. Are you willing to lose money in the short term to make more in the long term?<\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    That’s a big one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Scaling requires investing in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The ugly truth that Internet Marketing Gurus will never tell you is that many funnels take longer than one day to breakeven. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019re not willing to lose money and wait 30, 60 or 90 days to breakeven on your ad spend, you may not be ready to scale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Next we take a look at assets we might be able to leverage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sometimes to get to where you want to go, you need more than what you\u2019ve got.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    What assets already exist? (We want to know what we have to work with.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    7. How much traffic do you get a month? (Is that organic traffic or paid traffic?)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    8. Do you have an email list? (When\u2019s the last time an email went out? How engaged are they?)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    9. Do you have an email follow up sequence?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    10. What does your email strategy look like? (are you segmenting the list at all?)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    11. Is there an Instagram following? A Facebook group? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We\u2019re boiling things down to understand the size of the existing owned reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What assets we can leverage to get some sales moving or improve on existing campaigns right away to start generating cashflow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Often times a smaller project can generate revenue to afford a longer engagement with us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This glimpse into our diagnostics process is only the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Each situation is different. Some smaller supplement companies just starting out have more assets we can leverage. Others don\u2019t have much more than a single product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In either case you\u2019re never too small to scale. But you might need help laying the ground work to get there.<\/p>\n\n\n
