Your Next Million With Frank Kern

I'm kind of at the beginning, so I was wondering what type of a lead magnet you would suggest for my business, which is a high-end video production company...

What I'm trying to get done now is all of the pieces for this puzzle, and through the years we gathered lots and lots of things. So I'd just like to get your what twos and why fours on the best way to sell this thing now, in this day and age? So, it's been a long time since I've worked with any ass-kickers (that is what I call self defense people). What worked in the past and what probably still works is...

I'm just trying to figure out how to ease up the workload that I have for myself, so I can focus more on the sales side instead of the constant deliverables...which are bananas. Well, which is your strong point? I mean, I've run ads for years, so that's, I mean, I've always, essentially created a new job for myself. I'm going to be the business owner, except I just keep then creating new jobs for myself...

Do you have any recommendations whenever you were going through that hiring process, what you were looking for? I've never hired that person, 'cause I am that person. So I don't know what necessarily... I'm looking for a clone of myself...

Is there any tips that you can get people really engaged from the get-go? Like I was thinking about starting to bring people in a week or two weeks prior to my challenge to kind of just warm them up. Cause this last time Facebook ads got hung up and basically that day, I did it the day before people got in. Facebook ads got approved. I had 400 people in the group and then I started the program. So I think there's maybe a warm up period?

I have that program where it's basically a three month program 5k to a cold audience. I take them through a five day workshop and the people that don't buy within that 24 hour period, I do the expiring bonuses and all that stuff. Is there a mapped out email sequence that you recommend or is there any other way to get more people to say yes, either in my live offer or through emails that you recommend? Just best practices?

Should you always create video and image ads as regular posts on your page and then when you create your ad, just select them as an existing post or are there certain times when you don't need to do that? You can just create, upload an image and write the ad copy, right from the ads manager? And is there like a good rule of thumb to know, you know, when to do what? So the only time you want to do it right from the ads manager is always...

I've got a client who is doing this diabetes treatment that is unlike any other. It's been around for 20 years, but it hasn't been promoted very well. And, when you're promoting stuff on Facebook, especially in the medical world, the ad got rejected. A number of times I kept kicking back and it finally got approved and this client, they don't really want emails. They want phone calls...

Discover the single most effective way to quickly and easily get as many customers as you want.

Any advice about what ad to run, to have people apply to a webinar? Okay, so this question is, I'll rephrase it like this. I want to have someone do a certain thing. What should the ad say? Alright, that's really what the question is saying. In this case, Mark is saying, I want to have people go to a webinar, register for a webinar. What should the ad say? The question could be...

Any advice on how to learn to put a good course together? I finally feel like this is possible for me. I'm a legal recruiter and realize I have a ton of advice that will be helpful to young, new attorneys. Dude, here's what I would do. If I was you...

Very simple. It would be to get them on the phone, give them a proposal and see if they wanted to become a client. Everybody's got testimonials, you know. I don't really think it matters.

He's running some ads and he's not getting any sales. And to that I reply, welcome, sir, to the club. And so I don't really understand the question. It says is it only sales conversion that count? Or should I check for some other stats? I'm not...

What do you recommend for Book funnels in terms of advertising? Alright. Specifically referencing my Intent Based Branding methodology. And so I will give that answer regardless of methodology. So if the objective of the campaign is to sell a book, you first have to look at what is the objective of selling the book. Do you want to make an immediate profit during that? Do you want them to consume the book and then become fans and then buy more stuff later. What's the end result? 

The question is how do you script your videos? And the answer is I personally don't script my videos, but I do have a framework...

So we're going to move those people to pitch our membership group, but we want to create a new lead magnet, similar to your idea of elite owner operator. But it's specifically for real estate agents who make $500K or our number is more like 300 and up, but what type of the lead magnets do you find work better for attracting that type, or do you go straight to hire us to do it for you?

I'd really like to see what I can do to optimize engagement and click through rate on our current email newsletter. I'm seeing that our lead magnet, it has a great open rate. It's an 80% open rate, 60% click through, and then subsequent emails out the gate, you know, it's about a 20/25% open and 6% click through rate.  What recommendations do you have to really kind of help boost that sort of thing?

The hard part is the implementation aspect or the over analysis of like, oh God, I know I should do this. Should I change the color of the button purple and all this other stuff or, to some of these points, I hear a general sentiment of I kinda know what I need to do, I've heard it before, I'm just having trouble pulling the trigger.  How would you address someone who's in that specific situation?

If you were doing a State of the Union today with a topic like podcasting, or really any, any topic cuz I know so many of the people in this group, how would you structure it if you were looking for, you know, pointing them to more of an agency application type of funnel, rather than like a info product or a lower end product? Or would you strictly do it for a positioning standpoint of kind of putting the entire industry, niche on notice from that perspective?

I'm trying to find out if you have any tips on how I can engage this beta group and extract as much information as possible so I can really hone in on that viable, what that minimum viable product is. I don't know if I would...how big is the beta group? So there's 30 families now, so 60 individuals...
