Tara Bryan: 00:00:00

Have you ever felt like you're doing everything for

2

00:00:02,189 --> 00:00:04,059

everyone and still not getting ahead?

3

00:00:04,324 --> 00:00:07,774

You're stuck juggling the one on one

work with no time to grow your business,

4

00:00:08,035 --> 00:00:12,385

yet you can't imagine giving up that

personalized approach that you take

5

00:00:12,585 --> 00:00:14,875

that makes your services so impactful.

6

00:00:15,305 --> 00:00:17,424

What if I told you you didn't

actually have to choose?

7

00:00:17,854 --> 00:00:20,805

Today we're going to explore the

five essential steps to productize

8

00:00:20,824 --> 00:00:24,655

your service so you can scale your

business without sacrificing those

9

00:00:24,674 --> 00:00:26,394

connections that you value most.

10

00:00:26,394 --> 00:00:29,184

And I'll share stories of real

people who've done it, so you

11

00:00:29,184 --> 00:00:30,994

can see exactly what's possible.

12

00:00:31,187 --> 00:00:34,741

Welcome to The Scalable Expert,

the podcast where we unlock the

13

00:00:34,741 --> 00:00:38,511

secrets to building a business that

grows with you, not around you.

14

00:00:38,511 --> 00:00:42,061

I'm your host, Tara Bryan, business

strategist, mentor, and creator

15

00:00:42,081 --> 00:00:43,411

of the INFINITE SCALE Method.

16

00:00:43,411 --> 00:00:46,981

If you're a coach, consultant, or

service provider who's maxed out

17

00:00:46,981 --> 00:00:50,881

with one on one work, overwhelmed by

the grind, and ready to scale your

18

00:00:50,881 --> 00:00:54,661

expertise into a business that works

for you, then you're in the right place.

19

00:00:54,661 --> 00:00:58,581

Each week I'll share actionable

tips, inspiring success stories,

20

00:00:58,611 --> 00:01:02,150

and proven strategies to help you

reclaim your time, grow your income,

21

00:01:02,191 --> 00:01:06,321

and create a business that delivers

results without sacrificing quality.

22

00:01:06,321 --> 00:01:09,451

Let's dive in and make your

business INFINITELY SCALABLE.

23

00:01:12,176 --> 00:01:15,196

Alright, before we dive into the

steps, let's talk about mindset.

24

00:01:15,496 --> 00:01:18,616

Scaling doesn't mean abandoning

your clients or what you

25

00:01:18,616 --> 00:01:20,126

love about your business.

26

00:01:20,526 --> 00:01:24,056

It's about creating repeatable

systems and experiences that

27

00:01:24,056 --> 00:01:26,096

enhance how you deliver results.

28

00:01:26,736 --> 00:01:28,036

Take Sarah for example.

29

00:01:28,336 --> 00:01:31,526

She is a life coach who loved

working with her clients, but she

30

00:01:31,526 --> 00:01:35,426

felt burnt out repeating the same

advice over and over and over again.

31

00:01:35,765 --> 00:01:40,851

By shifting her mindset from trading time

for money to leveraging her expertise,

32

00:01:41,110 --> 00:01:44,651

she discovered a way to package her

coaching into an online experience.

33

00:01:45,261 --> 00:01:49,841

Now she serves more clients, and has

also reclaimed at least 15 hours,

34

00:01:50,131 --> 00:01:54,051

all while deeply connecting with

her clients through live calls.

35

00:01:54,621 --> 00:01:56,571

So here's the shift that Sarah made.

36

00:01:57,051 --> 00:02:00,921

She went from trading time for

money, to leveraging her expertise.

37

00:02:01,311 --> 00:02:04,421

Your value isn't in the hours

that you work, it's in the

38

00:02:04,421 --> 00:02:05,871

transformation that you deliver.

39

00:02:05,871 --> 00:02:09,041

She went from being overwhelmed

to having streamlined systems.

40

00:02:09,311 --> 00:02:13,271

She started with small tools and

processes to simplify her workload.

41

00:02:13,271 --> 00:02:16,431

She went from a fear to losing

that one on one personal connection

42

00:02:16,431 --> 00:02:19,811

to creating deeper meaningful

connections in an online experience.

43

00:02:20,521 --> 00:02:22,131

So take a moment to reflect.

44

00:02:22,551 --> 00:02:25,231

Where in your business are

you repeating the same steps

45

00:02:25,371 --> 00:02:26,761

over and over and over again?

46

00:02:27,171 --> 00:02:30,161

How can you package that

into a streamlined solution?

47

00:02:30,211 --> 00:02:34,001

So now let's get tactical with the

five steps to productize your services.

48

00:02:34,571 --> 00:02:37,221

Step one is to identify

your authority strategy.

49

00:02:37,441 --> 00:02:41,071

That's your unique model and

framework that sets you apart

50

00:02:41,101 --> 00:02:43,246

from others doing the same thing.

51

00:02:43,346 --> 00:02:47,416

In other words, it's how you help deliver

the consistent results to your clients.

52

00:02:47,606 --> 00:02:48,596

So think of Alex.

53

00:02:48,646 --> 00:02:51,136

Alex runs a boutique PR agency.

54

00:02:51,506 --> 00:02:55,566

She used to customize every service

for every single client, which left

55

00:02:55,566 --> 00:02:59,016

her overwhelmed and her clients

confused because there was always

56

00:02:59,026 --> 00:03:00,146

something a little bit different.

57

00:03:00,876 --> 00:03:06,301

She was able to identify a common theme

in her work and create the PR Launchpad,

58

00:03:06,526 --> 00:03:11,366

which is an online experience that

helps her clients have the consistency,

59

00:03:11,606 --> 00:03:13,326

and frees her up to grow her business.

60

00:03:14,016 --> 00:03:14,566

How about you?

61

00:03:14,576 --> 00:03:17,756

Do you have a common thread

in how you deliver results?

62

00:03:18,366 --> 00:03:20,916

What could become your

authority framework?

63

00:03:20,916 --> 00:03:21,896

All right, step two.

64

00:03:22,196 --> 00:03:24,386

Design a signature online experience.

65

00:03:24,736 --> 00:03:28,366

We have a blueprint for what we

recommend for this in what we call

66

00:03:28,366 --> 00:03:32,006

the INFINITE SCALE Method™, which

is all about creating a strategic

67

00:03:32,166 --> 00:03:34,026

online experience that's scalable.

68

00:03:34,026 --> 00:03:35,826

But let's just revisit Sara for a minute.

69

00:03:36,161 --> 00:03:40,261

She started with a simple online

program that addressed the most common

70

00:03:40,261 --> 00:03:41,831

challenges her clients were facing.

71

00:03:42,281 --> 00:03:45,391

It became her signature offer

and the foundation for her

72

00:03:45,391 --> 00:03:47,231

scalable online coaching business.

73

00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,811

So whether you start with one

training experience or a curriculum

74

00:03:50,861 --> 00:03:55,151

that mixes live connection with

on demand training, the key is to

75

00:03:55,151 --> 00:03:59,361

start small and focus on delivering

value with your current customers.

76

00:04:00,026 --> 00:04:02,866

Step 3 is to leverage tools

that you already know.

77

00:04:03,206 --> 00:04:04,886

Don't let the tech overwhelm you.

78

00:04:05,296 --> 00:04:10,196

Use an all in one platform like Kajabi

along with simple familiar tools that

79

00:04:10,196 --> 00:04:14,176

you probably already use like Zoom or

Canva or Google Drive to get started.

80

00:04:14,716 --> 00:04:16,245

That's exactly what Brad did.

81

00:04:16,375 --> 00:04:20,628

Brad is a fitness coach and wanted to

reach his clients beyond the local gym.

82

00:04:21,118 --> 00:04:23,998

So he created a hybrid

experience called Beyond the Gym.

83

00:04:24,338 --> 00:04:28,658

He used Kajabi and Zoom and

created a private community.

84

00:04:28,658 --> 00:04:31,758

He started with the basic tools

instead of getting bogged down with

85

00:04:31,778 --> 00:04:33,638

all of the tech and all of the crazy.

86

00:04:33,978 --> 00:04:38,588

So what tools are you already comfortable

with that can help you deliver that

87

00:04:38,598 --> 00:04:42,207

first online experience that you're

going to do for your customers?

88

00:04:42,207 --> 00:04:45,668

Alright, step four is to pre sell

your offer as a beta experience.

89

00:04:46,028 --> 00:04:50,018

Before creating all of the things,

validate your idea with your audience.

90

00:04:50,318 --> 00:04:54,328

Alex pre sold the PR Launchpad

to five clients before she

91

00:04:54,328 --> 00:04:55,488

built a single template.

92

00:04:55,988 --> 00:04:59,308

This generated revenue up front and

gave her the confidence to know she

93

00:04:59,308 --> 00:05:00,758

was creating something valuable.

94

00:05:01,398 --> 00:05:06,468

Okay, so for you, who in your audience

already could you reach out to today?

95

00:05:06,718 --> 00:05:09,198

Who would be interested in

helping you test your new idea?

96

00:05:09,198 --> 00:05:11,878

Finally, step five is

to deliver and refine.

97

00:05:12,118 --> 00:05:15,778

Start with that small group, gather

feedback, and improve the experience.

98

00:05:16,268 --> 00:05:20,398

Brad's first group in Beyond the

Gym loved the flexibility and

99

00:05:20,398 --> 00:05:21,858

personal touches he included.

100

00:05:22,128 --> 00:05:25,488

Their feedback helped him refine the

program, and in less than a year, he

101

00:05:25,498 --> 00:05:28,402

grew his client base from 20 to 100.

102

00:05:28,402 --> 00:05:31,193

So how could you use feedback

from a small group to improve the

103

00:05:31,193 --> 00:05:33,853

program before scaling it further?

104

00:05:34,093 --> 00:05:35,513

What would that look like for you?

105

00:05:35,513 --> 00:05:39,503

Here's why product testing your

services is 100 percent worth it.

106

00:05:39,943 --> 00:05:40,832

Scalability.

107

00:05:41,183 --> 00:05:44,623

Serve more clients without

adding more hours to your day.

108

00:05:45,348 --> 00:05:46,338

Increased revenue.

109

00:05:46,408 --> 00:05:48,168

Diversify your income streams.

110

00:05:48,438 --> 00:05:49,338

Time freedom.

111

00:05:49,648 --> 00:05:52,198

Automate repeatable tasks

and reclaim your time.

112

00:05:52,828 --> 00:05:53,818

Global reach.

113

00:05:53,868 --> 00:05:57,668

Attract clients outside of

your local area or time zone.

114

00:05:58,188 --> 00:05:59,228

Client retention.

115

00:05:59,518 --> 00:06:03,478

Keep clients engaged longer

by creating a clear journey.

116

00:06:04,268 --> 00:06:07,838

An online experience doesn't have

to mean giving up what you love.

117

00:06:07,948 --> 00:06:09,638

It's just about amplifying it.

118

00:06:09,978 --> 00:06:12,528

If Sarah, Alex, and Brad

can do it, so can you.

119

00:06:12,908 --> 00:06:16,888

Productizing your services is the key

to scaling your business, diversifying

120

00:06:16,888 --> 00:06:18,638

your income, and reclaiming your time.

121

00:06:18,928 --> 00:06:20,218
