12 Dec 2022 | EP 392 99 December Marketing Ideas To Boost Sales | 00:14:21 | |
SUMMARY: The Dark Horse Entrepreneur podcast is all about helping entrepreneurs who want to build a business online but are feeling overwhelmed with technology, procrastination, and even imposter syndrome. In this episode, the focus is on helping those struggling to come up with sales ideas for their product or service. The conversation offers a few tips to get started.
In this episode, Tracy Brinkman discusses how to take advantage of the many holidays in December to market your business. She recommends sending out two emails each day with a different holiday-themed campaign. For example, on Catherine's Day, you could offer a discount for people who send you a photo of their cat. This is a fun way to engage with your customers and promote your business at the same time.
In this episode, the speaker discusses some of the unique opportunities for sales that are available in December. Christmas Lights Day, World AIDS Day, and Rosa Parks Day are just a few of the days that present opportunities for marketing campaigns. The speaker encourages listeners to have fun with their emails and to be tongue-in-cheek in order to engage their audience.
Tracy lists different niche holidays that occur in December, and how businesses can take advantage of them to market their product or service. For example, International Volunteer Day or World Wildlife Conservation Day. The speaker also mentions how some of these days, like Christmas Card Day or Lost and Found Day, could be used to market products or services related to those topics.

HIGHLIGHTS On the 14th, easy Money Marketing right there. On the 15th, there it is, Catherine's Day. Rehifting Day, international Tea Day, and Cupcake Day the 16th. The 16th chocolate covered anything day.
You have International Cheetah Day, right? Maybe your product is fast in its solutions. You have cookie day, santa's list day, and world wildlife confederation, the world wildlife conservation day.
So if you're advocate of any of those, you can use them as part of your marketing campaigns. But now, let's go day by day, shall we, and talk about some of the unique opportunities that you have.
And I think that's one of the key things about good marketing is to have fun with it. Let's say you send out two emails each day during the month of December.
No matter what kind of how to product that you're selling this day, that particular day is tailor made for one of your sales campaigns. Then there's the app day or cookie day or ready for this one Catherine's day. The post EP 392 99 December Marketing Ideas To Boost Sales appeared first on Dark Horse Entrepreneur Schooling. | |||

06 Mar 2023 | EP 407 Secret to Making Those Stupid Affirmations Work | 00:28:15 | |
DarkHorseSchooling.com/podcast This episode is about how to use affirmations to help achieve success in the business world. The host, Tracy Brinkmann, is an experienced entrepreneur and coach who started the Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast to help entrepreneurs, coaches, and course creators battle technology overwhelmed procrastination and imposter syndrome. Tracy believes that driven entrepreneurs and those looking to start, restart, or Kickstart their business need to level up their marketing skills and take action in order to build their business into the empire it deserves to be. However, Tracy acknowledges that along the way, entrepreneurs will hit walls and will have to decide how to proceed in order to get past the obstacle. Tracy concludes by offering three secret steps plus a bonus secret to make affirmations into declarations of achievement.
Tracy is giving three tips and one secret to make affirmations work effectively. The tips are to state the affirmations in the present tense, to believe in what you are saying, and to make them personal and specific. The secret is a tool for those who are uncomfortable reading the affirmations out loud which works every time. Affirmations are positive statements that focus on what you want to achieve and feel in your life and by stating them in the present tense and believing in them, they can help align your body and mind with the desired outcomes.
Affirmations can be a powerful tool to create positive change in your life, but they are not a substitute for action. To make affirmations work effectively, you need to focus on three things. First, make sure the affirmation is stated in the present tense. Second, believe in the truth of the affirmation. Third, take action towards the goal. To reinforce the power of your affirmations, repeat them often and focus on the positive feelings they evoke. Taking action is key to making affirmations work as it brings them to life.
Affirmations are a great tool for helping us manifest our desired outcomes, but it is important to craft them in the present tense. This is because our subconscious mind operates in the now, and is more receptive to suggestions that are framed in the present. Affirmations should be stated as if the desired outcome has already happened or is currently happening, for example, instead of saying I will be successful say I am successful. It is also important to believe in the affirmation and its possibility, as this will send a signal to your subconscious mind that it is something that is important to you and that you are committed to making it happen.
TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 "Unlock the Secret to Making Affirmations Work: 3 Steps Plus a Bonus Secret" 0:02:37 "Using Affirmations to Achieve Your Goals" 0:04:59 Using Affirmations to Create Positive Change in Your Life 0:06:30 "The Power of Present Tense Affirmations: How to Make Them Work Effectively" 0:11:42 "The Power of Affirmations and Visualization: Strengthening Your Beliefs" 0:13:11 "The Power of Affirmations: How to Make Them Work for You" 0:18:08 Heading: Making Affirmations Work Effectively for Business Success 0:20:10 Conversation on the Power of Affirmations for Entrepreneurs 0:22:20 "Using Affirmations to Achieve Your Goals: A Step-by-Step Guide" 0:26:05 Episode Summary: Affirmations and Subscriber Ratings
HIGHLIGHTS So his coach and his infinite wisdom patiently explained the three steps I just explained to you to making affirmations work effectively, stating, affirmations need to be in the president. You got to believe in what you're saying. You got to take some action. And then the entrepreneur getting this information from his coach was excited to put these steps into practice and boost their chances of success in business.. But as the discussion continued, the entrepreneur couldn't help but think of their business goals. They're like, wait a minute. I can use affirmations to make my business successful. Of course you can, the coach replied. You can create affirmations that focus on specific business goals, like increasing sales, increasing customer loyalty, and expanding your customer base. This isn't always about right how fat you are, how tall you are, how confident you are.
So by staying open and flexible, you can take advantage of these opportunities and bring your affirmations to life, right? It's like a it's like J. R. Tolkien when he put pen in the paper and he brought all those characters in The Hobbit to life, not just up on the silver screen that we see nowadays, but if you've ever read the book, right? Those were his affirmations. He brought them to life. So what I'm saying, in summary, is that taking action is a critical component to making affirmations work effectively.
These actions help to reinforce the belief and the truth of your affirmation that you are healthy and fit. And it makes it far more likely that you will see the results that you're looking for. Now, it's also important that you stay open to the opportunities that will arise. Because now your brain is saying, okay, this is important to you. You're paying attention to it, and you're taking action to it. So opportunities that are going to arise as you work toward your goals, sometimes the universe and its infinite intelligence will present you with an unexpected opportunity that can help you to achieve your desires far more quickly, way easier than you ever thought possible.
Now, taking action doesn't necessarily mean taking those giant leaps towards your goals. It could even mean making those small daily changes, little tweaks to your daily routine that align the direction you're taking and the actions you're taking every single day to your desired outcome. Or it could help you in taking consistent steps towards your goal every single day. The important thing is to be proactive in moving towards your desired outcome.. Now, of course, you need to know what that desired outcome is, and I spent quite a bit of time talking about that. Oh, gosh way back in episode 176, the IChart Method of Goal Setting. And then episode 398, the I Chart Method for goal Setting and achievement. So I give it to you twice, a little differently each time. So go back and check those out. I don't want to belabor that particular topic again and make this episode an hour and a half long, but you get my point.
When you believe in your affirmation, you're sending that signal back up to your subconscious mind. That amazing tool between your ears that this is something that is important to you and that you're not only committed to making it happen, but you desire to make it happen. As a result, your subconscious mind is going to work to align your thoughts, your beliefs, and your behaviors. Let me say that again.. Your thoughts, your beliefs, and your behaviors with the affirmation making it more likely to come into your life. You're going to start seeing things that you probably hadn't paid attention to before. You're going to start believing things that maybe you doubted before, and you're going to start doing things maybe you hadn't done. On the other hand, if you don't believe in the truth of the affirmation, it's this to be honest, this is not. Your subconscious mind is going to be less likely to even respond to it. And maybe that's why you're still listening to this about twelve minutes in. The post EP 407 Secret to Making Those Stupid Affirmations Work appeared first on Dark Horse Entrepreneur Schooling. | |||

07 Dec 2022 | EP 390 How to Get Free Book Publicity With Dedication Contests | 00:11:42 | |
SUMMARY : The Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast is all about helping entrepreneurs who want to build a business online, but may be feeling overwhelmed by technology or unsure if they're cut out for it. In each episode, business owners share tips and advice on everything from overcoming procrastination to thinking bigger. If you're feeling stuck in your business journey, this podcast is definitely worth a listen!
The Dark Horse host, Tracy Brinkman, discusses how to get free publicity using dedication contests for books. She shares her experience in the coaching course creation online space and how entrepreneurs can use this method to build their business.
The conversation discusses the idea of running a dedication contest as a way to publicize a book. The prize for the contest would be a dedication in the book. The idea is that the contest would be a way to get people interested in the book and also to capture email addresses. The conversation also discusses the idea of using the contest as a way to build relationships.
Tracy discusses how to get part of your book written for you by running a contest. The winner of the contest would write a chapter in the book. This would collect email addresses which could be marketed to later. The speakers also mention how this could be done for an online course.

HIGHLIGHTS How to get some free publicity for your book with some contests, specifically a dedication contest, or maybe write your own chapter contest, and also how you can use it for your course creation as well.
That's where I got the idea for this particular episode. Because think about it, there's going to be a number of people out there going to go, oh, man, I didn't win.
You get a great way to publicize your book even without seeming to be publicizing it. You're not all smarmy marmy salesy about it. And it's really, if you think about it, it's kind of a backdoor method or way of getting the word out there.
So how about you run a contest on social media just as you would run any other contest and make the prize a dedication in your book?. I don't think I've seen many people do.
You're writing a book, and you're ready to look for ways to get the word out. And I won't use the novel approach pun again. But what you can do is you can run what's called a dedication contest.

19 Dec 2022 | EP 394 Simple Trick For More Comments And Better Rankings | 00:12:23 | |
https://DarkHorseSchooling.com SUMMARY: The conversation is about a trick to get more people to leave comments on your blog or social media posts. The trick is to ask a question at the end of your post. Asking a question will encourage people to leave a comment because they will want to answer the question.
Tracy is an entrepreneur who is still learning. He believes that it is more important to know who the person is that you are to get your content in order to get better rankings. The reason for this is because they are likely driven and want to build their business into an empire. The interviewee then shares a tip on how to get more people to interact with content, which in turn will improve the ranking of that content.
The conversation is about how to get people to comment on your content, and the best way to do this is by asking them to do so. Tracy also mentions that he is going to be giving away a free copy of his new course to one lucky person who comments on the content.
Tracy discusses the idea of using a contest to increase engagement on a video or article. The prize for the contest is a free, valuable gift that is related to the topic of the video or article. The contest can help to increase the average viewing time of the video or article, and the prize should be specifically targeted to the audience who would be interested in the topic.

HIGHLIGHTS You'll be seeing it announced here on the podcast and all the platforms that I publish on, but you will get your free copy if you're picked as one of the winners.
Try doing this across a couple of posts, a couple of podcast episodes, a couple of videos on your YouTube and watch the magic happen in your comment section. So let's see if the magic works.
And there's a couple of big metrics that YouTube uses to determine whether or not they show a video to additional people. Views in the first 24 hours are specifically important if we're talking about YouTube to help get your video seen by more people.
The more comments you have, the higher your chance of you ranking higher in the searches. And when you get your readers and your viewers and your listeners to interact with your content, by leaving their own comment, you're increasing their perceived ownership of that content.
Why do you want people to interact with your content?. Well, more often not, it's because it will quite often give you a better standing in the search. And you've talked about social media content.

18 Nov 2022 | EP 383 Things I Wish I Had Known Before I Started | 00:20:55 | |
https://DarkHorseSchooling.com/podcast SUMMARY: In this episode of the Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast, Tracy Brickman helps entrepreneurs, coaches, and course creators who want to build a business online but are battling technology, overwhelmed procrastination, and even imposter syndrome. He shares tips and advice on how to successfully overcome these obstacles and build a successful business.
Tracy discusses the reasons why someone might start podcasting or creating an online course, and shares some of the things she wishes she had known before she started doing either of them. He stresses the importance of knowing your audience and offers some tips on how to create content that will appeal to them.
The best time to start a successful and popular podcast or online course is before you press the record button for the first time. However, it can be a hard slog for creators to learn what works and what doesn't. Fortunately, some tips can help you learn from the mistakes of others.
Knowing what you want to get out of your course or podcast is important, as it will give you a clear reason for creating it. Additionally, your email list should come before your product, as it is a slow process to build one from scratch. Finally, social media can be a helpful tool for promoting your course or podcast to your target audience.
Tracy explains that if you want to be successful in launching a podcast, it is important to have an email list, social media following, and something to sell from day one. Without these things, it will be difficult to get people to listen to your podcast and you will likely end up spending more money than you make.

HIGHLIGHTS Interview some big shots in your niche, even go outside of your niche, but somehow relates to the theme of your course, of your podcast. I've had folks from way outside the entrepreneurial, the podcasting, and the online course realm, right? But I was always able to take their knowledge and relate it back.
You need to choose to be a celebrity from day one, all right? You need to choose to be someone who is bigger than you are in real life, someone with a memorable name and a personality.
What that means is whatever money you're spending on ads and the costs it takes to get a prospect turned into a paying customer, at the end of the day, the cost of the course pays for that ad.
You'll be investing your time to create your episodes, to create your lessons, and to edit those episodes and added those lessons into marketing and finding people to come in and talk, doing everything else that needs to be done or you'll be hiring someone to do it.
You're going to send your subscribers and your social media friends to your podcast to get that critical mass, that boost as soon as you hit itunes, to jump you up in the lists so that you can grab more listeners and more subscribers and then really start to build your email list.

21 Nov 2022 | EP 384 More Things I Wish I Had Known Before I Started | 00:43:55 | |
https://DarkHorseSchooling.com/podcast SUMMARY : In the last episode, the Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast host Tracy Brinkman talked about the things she wishes he knew before she started her entrepreneurial journey. He said that being an entrepreneur can be tough, but it is worth it if you are driven and passionate. He also said that it is important to always be learning, even if you have been in the business for awhile.
The conversation discuss seven things that the Tracy wish he knew before he started his entrepreneurial journey. The first seven tips are related to building a strong foundation for a successful business, including building a list of email subscribers and having something to sell from day one. The eighth tip is related to approaching possible guests or joint venture (JV) opportunities in a way that is less intimidating and more likely to result in a positive response.
In order to get the attention of a celebrity or expert that you want to collaborate with, the best thing to do is buy their product and then use it. After you have implemented the advice in the product, write to the celebrity or expert and let them know your results. This is a great way to get their attention and show that you are a fan of their work.
Tracy offers a tip for building relationships with experts or gurus in your field - reach out to them after you've used their product or implemented their advice, and let them know your results. This not only validates them as an expert, but also starts a dialogue that could lead to future work or opportunities.

HIGHLIGHTS I'll give you this great content about Internet marketing. Or if they pay for it, you give it to them once a week. If there's lots of niches where daily tips are great.
You have lots of great content you want to get, and you're taking some of that content from the other experts, we talk about why I keep saying podcast interviews.
All right, last two lead magnet ideas. Now, I did a whole episode on a free lead magnet that applied to just about any niche. It was about three episodes ago.
And the way you're always going to have your brain on the lookout is to pay attention to the damn ideas you're getting in the first place. You get an idea, you don't write it down.
That's why you need to keep some sort of idea log. Every single time you get an idea for a topic, every time you read something that gives you an idea for a topic, every time you hear someone talk about something for a topic or talk about something, you're like, oh, maybe a good guess to come on my show.

05 Dec 2022 | EP 389 3 Money Generating Campaigns You Need Right Now | 00:17:27 | |
https://DarkHorseSchooling.com SUMMARY: The Dark Horse Entrepreneur podcast is all about helping entrepreneurs who are feeling overwhelmed by technology and imposter syndrome. In this episode, Tracy and Jasmine discuss three old school marketing campaigns that are still relevant today. First, they talk about the importance of word-of-mouth marketing. Then they discuss the power of direct mail campaigns. Finally, they emphasize the importance of building relationships with influencers. These three campaigns may be old school, but they're still incredibly effective.
Tracy Brinkmann explains that coupons and discounts are a great way to generate sales, but it is important to keep them on a schedule so that customers don't get used to them. He argues that this is an especially effective marketing tactic in a struggling economy.
Tracy discusses the idea that offering a discount or coupon with a deadline can be an effective way to increase sales. They note that this strategy can be especially effective if the target audience is already interested in the product but may be hesitant to make a full purchase.
Tracy explains that one way to increase sales is to offer a discount or coupon to new and existing customers. She notes that this offer can be continued indefinitely as long as new people are seeing it for the first time. She also suggests that another way to increase sales is to make customers qualify for your product or service. This campaign works better for higher price points, and it allows you to reset the sales dynamic.
TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 3 Old School Marketing Campaigns That Will Help You Succeed 0:01:44 3 Old School Marketing Campaigns That Will Generate Sales 0:03:31 The Power of Discounts and Coupons in Your Marketing Campaign 0:04:58 How to Use Discounts and Qualifying Questions to Boost Sales 0:09:09 3 Simple Sales Funnels That Will Help You Make More Money 0:13:51 The Benefits of Giving Away Freebies to Qualified Prospects
HIGHLIGHTS And here's one of the greatest things about being an entrepreneur, is you start watching sales and marketing pieces with a different eye, right? You're looking at this going, okay, that was pretty good.
That paid offer makes enough sales to cover the cost of the advertising. The funnel is financially self liquidated, and the marketer is building a list for zero costs at the end of the day, right? So pay attention to some of these.
It's a self liquidating offer, and many marketing sales funnels begin with this type of free offer or self liquidating offer if you're paying for something. But even the free offers and the self liquidating offers will be immediately followed by a paid offer.
Yet sometimes we just tend to forget these bedrock campaigns that the marketing industry, let alone the online marketing industry, have been built upon. Think about someone as big as McDonald's does something like this several times a year.
You're flipping the sales dynamic in this particular instance from convincing them to buy to qualifying to buy. And you'll be shocked at how this resets your own attitude, let alone the attitude of your prospective client.

23 Jan 2023 | EP 401 Paralysis To Entrepreneurship With Nick & Karen Fitch | 00:51:24 | |
This conversation introduces the Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast, a show that helps entrepreneurs, coaches and course creators who want to build an online business but are struggling with technology, feeling overwhelmed, and battling imposter syndrome. The host, Tracy Brinkman, has been in the coaching, course creation and online space since the 90s, and is still learning new things. He believes that the listeners are driven entrepreneurs, ready to start or restart their business and kickstart their marketing, so they can build their business into the empire it deserves to be. Nick and Karen Fitch are a couple in their twenties who have purchased a farm and a heard of cows. One morning, Karen wakes up and is unable to move from the neck down. It is a devastating event, but the Fitches refuse to be held down by it. They have found ways to adapt and take on their challenges with optimism. The conversation is about how they have navigated their situation, started a business, and how others can find inspiration in their story. Nick and Karen are an amazing couple with an inspiring story of entrepreneurship. They started an online business selling pictures of their beloved cows via their website, CuddleCowCompany.com. They have overcome a lot of obstacles to reach the level of success they have today. The podcast is full of personal and business advice that can be taken away to help listeners become successful entrepreneurs. Nick and Karen shared a bit about their story and how they were able to start their own business. Three years ago, the Karen woke up paralyzed from the neck down and had to spend six months across three states and seven hospitals. She was closer to death multiple times during this period. In April of 2020, the Karen was sent home from the hospital as the doctor believed it was the best way to keep her safe from infection.

HIGHLIGHTS Be a part of the solution, not the problem. All right, so I want to be mindful of your time where I could sit here and pick your brain all day long because I'm like you. But spinal cord injury is just kind of an underfunded area where there's not a lot of funds going towards that. But actually, in the last year or so, there's actually been a few new drugs that have been invited and therapies that are going into like a testing phase with the FDA.
And that's the bulk of our income through that. And then I also do a little bit of social media consulting and stuff with people on Facebook stuff because, I don't know, that's one of my passions.
And then here they are given with cuddle cows. You guys got to check this out. The link will be down in the show notes, everybody. I'm going to put all your links, the Facebook link, the TikTok link is going to be down there.
And if this business ends up becoming more part of our income, that would be great. But I would say we started this mainly for how we become part of the solution to find a cure for style for style burden. https://DarkHorseSchooling.com/ The post EP 401 Paralysis To Entrepreneurship With Nick & Karen Fitch appeared first on Dark Horse Entrepreneur Schooling. | |||

30 Nov 2022 | EP 387 Two Simple Steps To Selling Anything | 00:10:14 | |
https://DarkHorseSchooling.com/podcast SUMMARY: The Dark Horse Entrepreneur explains that there are two simple concepts that anyone can use to sell just about any product. The first concept is to identify the customer's problem and the second is to show the customer how your product can solve that problem. The entrepreneur goes on to say that being an entrepreneur can also be difficult, especially when you are feeling overwhelmed by technology or when you are doubting your ability to succeed. The Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast is designed to help entrepreneurs who are struggling with these issues.
Tracy Brinkman discusses the two step selling process and how it can be used to sell anything. The first step is to determine what's in it for the customer, or WIIFM. The second step is to make an offer that the customer can't refuse.
The customer is always wondering what's in it for me? and this question needs to be answered right away. Secondly, you need to join in on the conversation that the customer is already having in their head. This can be done by sharing your pain of their problem and how you searched for a solution. You're essentially taking them by the hand and walking with them right up to the edge of the problem and pointing it out. Finally, let them know that you understand how much it stinks to have that problem and that you have found the answer.
The conversation is about how to best sell to potential customers by using the What's in it for me? (WIIFM) approach. The idea is that you should focus on what the potential customer stands to gain from your product or service, rather than trying to convince them that they have a problem that needs to be solved. This is known as Occam's Razor, and it's a way of simplifying the selling process by getting rid of unnecessary information.

HIGHLIGHTS And then you're taking them from the starting point through the process of realizing that your solution might be the one solution that really makes sense. And here's the thing, it's your solution.
Enter the conversation that's already in the customer's head. Your customer is already talking to themselves, talking to their clients, talking to their spouses. So just go ahead and enter the conversation where they already are.
Or you could just learn and practice two very simple concepts that will allow you to sell just about anything on the planet. You want to know what they are?.
So as I mentioned at the onset of this particular episode, you could buy hundreds and hundreds of books on how to sell, hundreds of books on how to make conversions, how to people to do things, how to influence people, and so forth.
