• 933: Before You Build Your Next Funnel (Listen to THIS)
    Mar 11 2025
    So many people build funnels to bring in passive income and wonder why it doesn’t sell – that’s because they skipped a step! In this episode, I’m going to help you explore the step that so many people miss: the one that is going to guarantee you actual income and talk about the right way to build a funnel. Join The Co-op - The Membership for Online Businesses Connect with Abagail Instagram All the Links! The reason most funnels fail has very little to do with the actual product or how well you teach! The truth is, if it hasn’t converted in a live launch and you haven’t seen that people are responding to your offer, then it’s not ready for evergreen. Episode Highlights The Power of Live Launches [0:02:44] Keeping it Simple [0:04:26] The Importance of Measuring Analytics [0:11:56] While it is possible to have a product out there that makes you money while you sleep, most of the time you need mechanisms out there that help move people through the buying piece of that puzzle – and funnels are a great way to do that!

  • 932: How I Accumulated 35,527+ Watch Time Hours Before Even Starting My YouTube Channel
    Mar 6 2025
    Most people start a YouTube channel from scratch with zero videos, zero audience, and zero watch time, but before I even started my YouTube channel, I had accumulated over 35,000 watch hours! I wouldn’t consider myself a YouTuber, and I wasn’t posting regularly, but I had an entirely different motivation that gave me a huge leg up. I never set out to grow on YouTube. Instead, my growth was a byproduct of trying to make a difference and support the community I was building. Join The Co-op - The Membership for Online Businesses Connect with Abagail Instagram All the Links! Today, I break down exactly what went into those watch hours, how I accumulated so many, and how my story might change your approach to launching a YouTube channel. There are so many different ways you can go about doing this, so I’m going to be fully transparent about what worked for me and give you some practical ideas you can try! Episode Highlights The One Thing You Need to Focus on When Creating Content. [0:03:16] Why Offering Free Content Benefits You in the Long Run. [0:08:16] Leveraging Online Event Recordings on YouTube.

It’s not the life I imagined for myself, but it is so much better! Join The Co-op - The Membership for Online Businesses Connect with Abagail Instagram All the Links!

  • 927: False Narratives: Those That Can’t Do, Teach
    Feb 18 2025
    Your knowledge is your currency! For years I feared that what I was doing wasn’t real business and I felt like I had to prove myself. I think we feel strange about this because it’s unfamiliar, not because it’s wrong. The world of traditional business is rapidly changing and you are building an online business at the beginning of the new digital frontier. Of course it’s hard to feel like an expert when everything is just beginning. Join The Co-op - The Membership for Online Businesses Connect with Abagail Instagram All the Links! When I started teaching online, the old saying, ‘those who can’t do, teach’ haunted me. It forced me to convince myself that what I was doing wasn’t making an impact and it couldn’t have been further from the truth! The internet has changed the way people teach and it will continue to change the way people learn. I need to remind you that you are a pioneer – online business is still in its infancy, you are literally shaping the future, and you have the opportunity to do it exactly how you want to.

    Feb 13 2025
    Blogging is not dead! It’s been waiting for small businesses to pick up the torch again and I think now is the perfect time to do it. Pretty much the only people publishing articles today are either larger businesses, software companies, or the media. Join The Co-op - The Membership for Online Businesses Connect with Abagail Instagram All the Links! There are fewer and fewer creators writing long-form content on the internet than I have seen in my career. Now, when I started this business, I was writing all the time. I was publishing new articles on my blog five days a week.I had really gotten away from it in 2024, but something happened in my business recently that re-inspired me to take up this untapped opportunity again. Let’s get into why. Episode Highlights How 24 000 Website Visits Made Me Realize That Blogging is Alive and Well [0:01:52] The Main Difference Between Social Media and Blogging [0:06:50] Embracing the Opportunity to Make Your Authenticity Shine [0:13:10] What Blogging Ultimately Gives You the Chance to Do [0:24:55] My Approach to Blogging In 2025 [0:37:23] Thank you for listening!
