    The Attractive Character – Why It Is Important For Your Brand

    Do you have trouble connecting with your audience on a genuine level? Or that they aren’t being moved to take action?

    In the early stages of your online business, the majority of your ideal clients will first come from strangers.

    The nurturing process begins at this point.

    Getting inside the head of your ideal customer is crucial in this situation.

    Story + Message + Values + Brand Identity = Attractive Character

    Building an online character that connects with your audience and draws in your ideal client is the focus of The Attractive Character.

    This has to do with using an online identity to your advantage in order to draw attention to yourself and develop a following. These are your devoted customers who will be the first in line to purchase your goods and services.

    What is an Attractive Character?

    Using an Attractive Character as a marketing approach will help you reach your ideal client. Your attractive character will attract people to you whether you’re communicating via email, Facebook, Instagram, or YouTube.

    To have a desirable character, you need the following 4 things:

    • Your Background
    • In your parables (little stories)
    • Character flaws you have
    • Polarity of You

    The DotCom Secrets book by Russell Brunson is where the Attractive Character originally appeared. Stop what you’re doing and click here to download a free copy of Dot Com Secrets if you haven’t read it yet or don’t know who Russell Brunson is.

    The person with whom your audience will identify is your attractive character.

    Consider Tom Cruise, Michael Jordan, The Rock, Oprah, and Oprah to name a few.

    The attractive character is the one who will persuade your audience that their aspirations, objectives, and goals are realistic.

    How to build an Attractive Character for your brand

    It begins by securing these crucial components:

    1. Story

    What difficulties did you overcome to arrive at your current position? What makes you human is your past. It’s what motivates your audience to stick with you. It’s what demonstrates to them that you began exactly where they are and have since reached your goal. What gives your audience optimism that they can accomplish their goals (which, ideally, should be in line with what you’re trying to sell them) is your tale.

    2. Paraphrases

    What useful lessons can you apply from your experience? What kind of parables could you use these for? This is where a large portion of your content will originate. These are the teachings that will actually benefit your audience. How can you use what you’ve learned to facilitate their journey and aid them in advancing toward their objectives more quickly?

    3. Personality Issues

    It’s crucial to refrain from attempting to present yourself as some sort of mistake-free perfectionist. People are drawn to others who, flaws and all, are like them. They are attracted to weakness. Make it clear to your audience that you are a human being who makes mistakes. Because they are just like you, this simply increases their confidence that they can succeed.

    4. Polarization

    This is a big one. Avoid trying to please everyone. You must demonstrate to your audience that you are not for everyone if you want to truly connect with them. It’s okay if some individuals choose not to follow or like you. Those who do adhere to you will be fiercely devoted (and will likely buy all of your products).

    The Identity

    After you have figured out how to combine your four essential components, you must develop your identity.

    There are four components to this. Choose the one that fits you the best.

    The Chief

    Are you the kind of person who will lead by example, make decisions, and take charge?

    The Crusader/Adventurer

    Are you the sort to experiment in your field, try out new tactics, and think of original ways to succeed?

    The Evangelist/Reporter

    It’s simple to start with this one. Simply do podcast or blog interviews with additional thought leaders in your sector. By being associated with them, you will receive significant value.

    The Unwilling Hero

    Perhaps you didn’t want to be the center of attention, but you had to do it for the greater good. This makes you appear as if you have something valuable to contribute. Only because you are aware that people need your product are you in this situation.

    The Story Lines

    Finally, you must construct narratives that captivate your audience and show them how to accomplish their objectives. Stories are the most effective way to teach information to people. How you connect your four essential components and your identity will depend on your narratives.

    The available Story Lines are:

    Loss and Resurrection

    Consider Dave Ramsey, who at the age of 28 was completely insolvent before going on to become a financial coach (and selling his course).

    Us vs. Them

    Russell Brunson creates content exclusively for entrepreneurs without funding or venture capital backing. He refers to them as the “Real Entrepreneurs” who must utilize inventive marketing strategies because they lack a limitless supply of funding.

    Before & After

    Think about Jared from Subway and his transformation.

    Amazing Discovery

    This explains why supplements for weight loss and hair loss are usually so popular. These companies employ a captivating figure who makes a significant audience-pain-relieving revelation.

    Secret Telling

    Secret telling positions the attractive character as an authority figure and thought leader.

    3rd Person Testimonial

    Social proof is the most effective thing there is. It would help much if folks regard you or your brand as a thought leader and someone whom others can trust.

    Final thoughts

    Being able to relate to them is the first step in recruiting customers or clients to your business. This is where your business may differentiate itself from the competitors.

    Now that you are in possession of the fundamentals—elements, identities, and storylines—you can use them to create an engaging persona for a person or a business.

  • Front-End Versus Back-End Funnels – Why It’s Important For Your Bottom Line

    Front-End Versus Back-End Funnels – Why It’s Important For Your Bottom Line

    Are you looking for more ways to increase the performance of your sales funnel?

    Do you spend enough time on back-end strategies as you do on front-end strategies?

    While this is great, many businesses aren’t seeing a high converting sales funnel because they tend to forget about their backend strategies.

    What is a front-end sales funnel?

    The front-end is often referred to as the first product that a new customer buys. The back-end is all the additional products that a customer will buy from you over the time that they remain your customer. The back-end can also be a high-ticket item as well.

    It can be a free plus shipping offer, a deeply discounted offer, etc. what matters is that there is a sale and you’re capturing a buyer not just an opt-in.

    Although opt-ins can also be on your front end.

    In either case, whether you have an offer for a sale or an opt-in as the first step in your front end, you’ll usually also have a front end sales funnel consisting of a tripwire offer and or a couple of upsells and down sells. This is your front end sales funnel.

    What is the back-end marketing?

    Back end marketing is any offer that sells to an existing customer.

    Again the type of offer is irrelevant.

    The important thing to learn is that this is in the back end. So it usually consists of a follow-up email sequence that nurtures the buyer and moves them onto another offer, which in turn is actually another funnel with upsells and downfalls behind that, or a high ticket value ladder.

    The money is in the back-end

    Seasoned affiliate marketers know that the real money is made in the back-end.

    What that simply means is that you make more money by selling additional products to the same customer than you make on the initial front-end sale.

    In fact, the top marketers are actually making no money on the initial first sale. Sometimes they lose money on that first sale. The best-case scenario is that they split even to acquire a customer.

    The reason why this works online is because of the backend.

    To the newbie affiliate marketer, this can be very confusing to understand. How can a company stay in business if they are making no money or even losing money on a sale?

    The secret is that they are making all their profit on the back-end. Including recouping the loss of that first sale, the front-end sale. It’s easier to sell to a warm customer than it is to sell to a cold customer.

    In order to understand this let’s look at everything above and below the line of the first offer sale.

    In the video below, I explain the back-end offer and how it flows with high-ticket items
