Video Transcript
0:11 We sell them something and what we're selling them is a spreadsheet. Well, I will actually talk about why that might not be the case in this section, why you may not want to sell a spreadsheet at all when you're selling spreadsheets.
0:22 I know that sounds confusing, but I will clear it up in one of these videos that you're about to watch.
0:26 But this is, this section is all about that sales process, creating a sales page with a really cool story, a user journey.
0:32 That you yourself went through, a very simple way, a little, very simple framework that I have to talk about your exact journey that maps to the user journey.
0:41 That sounds like a really complicated thing, but it's really simple. And I will also tell you pricing strategies, why you may or may not want to create a free sheet, and also, when you're upselling, what to upsell that's beyond the sheet that you can offer very simply, how you scale that, and I will
0:58 also tell you how to avoid, or rather why to avoid a multi-tier strategy if you are creating your very first spreadsheet to sell.
1:06 If you're doing this for the second, third, fourth time, you'll definitely want, might want to use a multi-tier strategy, but I will tell you at the end of the section why you will want to avoid one if you're selling your spreadsheet for the very first time.
1:16 Enjoy, uh I'm excited that we're at the section I think it's the most fun section, actually sorry, second most fun because I think the next section, marketing, is even more fun.
1:27 Getting your sheet out into the public, into marketplaces, that's in the next section, but this section is all about getting that sales page up.
1:34 Getting a free one up on Gumroad is really simple, maybe you're not thinking about Etsy, maybe you're thinking about marketplaces like AppSumo Marketplace.
1:40 First I would say, prop it up on Gumroad and I will then tell you in the next section in market, marketing, how to get it from Gumroad onto AppSumo Marketplace with a really cool tool that I built myself because I had this problem.
1:53 Spreadsheet on Gumroad. Great, it's selling. Now I want to sell more. Where do I sell it? AppSumo Marketplace is the answer and Coupon Codemaker is the answer but that's in the next section.
2:02 This one, let's just get your sales page up. Very simple, little journey. Ah, talk about it and ah, I'll give you some tips on pricing as well.
