I dunno John.... music licensing and joint ventures are all something that are in my to do file, but still down the road a bit. If you want to close these categories, we could just ask to re-open them later if the need arises. It seems like most of the forum activity right now is more geared towards building up a good fan base.

Hey John,

don't know whether this would be a forum category... maybe more of a training module that morphs into a forum category. I'm interested in a map or blueprint. There are so many moving parts when conceiving a strategy to launch this new online marketing saavy approach to our business, I would love a "how to get your project up and running in 30 days" outline or guide to follow. A quick reference that cuts through to the essentials so you can see all the steps laid out in one template. I would even pay additional $$ for something like that. For me, so many aspects of this are new and they are all interdependent so I have a hard time connecting the dots and balancing learning with taking action. Whereas if I had an action list that I could refer to I would find it easier to take the steps regardless of the learning curve. 

Thanks!

Hi John,

I'm talking about a step by step guide to creating your first membership and/or authority site in 30 days... not in depth, since you've already done that in the training modules and we can reference them. More like an outline that takes into account the variances in approach, depending on the goal. Maybe a flow chart would work? On the steps that have multiple options you could list them, for example: traffic driving methods (fb ads and/or articles and/or link building) which all then flow to an authority site or to a squeeze page, or both, all of which lead to the opt-in or offer and the thank you letter which may or may not include an upsell, followed by the relationship building and sales letters etc. then maintenance steps for keeping your site on track, so you can see the map visually with all the moving parts and options and where they ultimately lead.

On the flow chart you could even include your recommends for purchases at each stage so it all becomes more automated. Just an outline to look at, so someone doing this for the first time can know what step follows what and where they all go. I'm imagining something simple... no details just taking everything you talk about and distilling it into "first you do this, then you do that, then if you want to do this you do that, but if you want to do that you do this and it all leads here or there, etc. As I'm saying this I know it's a ton of info to distill so not at all simple on your end! Could be a powerful way to get people engaged though!! On the other hand it may be that since each case is so individual it's impossible to pin down...

Just throwing it out there based on what trips me up. I like to follow directions and would love a general launch blueprint... but maybe I'm nuts! 

Throw in my vote for a step by step outline too! I am s l o w l y implimenting all of this stuff, partly because I am heavily involved in my latest recording project, and partly because there is so much to learn...and forget! A simple outline would help trigger my memory, and remember where to go to research the next step.

I used the word simple, meaning simple in format. I understand how hard it might be to actually put something like this together!

Hi John,

Yeah. Case studies. Things that have worked, sort of worked on not worked. I find it helpful when I hear what people have actually done and what kind of results they're seeing.
