How a Template Designer Built a Six-Figure Business Without Video, Webinars, or Complex Funnels
Ready to build a six-figure course business without overwhelming yourself with ALL the marketing strategies? 🚀
Most online course creators believe they need to be everywhere at once – creating weekly content, hosting webinars, dancing on Reels, and building complex funnels. But what if success could be simpler? In this episode, I chat with Sal Coombs, founder of The Template Tribe, who built her six-figure membership business with just one ad, one lead magnet, and one core offer – all while refusing to do the marketing activities that didn't align with her strengths.
For course creators feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice and endless to-do lists, Sal's journey proves that focusing on what you're naturally good at – and saying NO to the rest – might be the fastest path to profitability.
“Focus on what you are good at, work out what your special thing is. That needs to be a combination of what you enjoy doing and what you're good at doing. And then make sure that your audience wants that.” ✨
🔥 In This Episode:
- Discover how Sal created a six-figure business without ever doing a Facebook Live, webinar, or sales presentation
- Learn why identifying your “anti-strategy” (what you WON'T do) can be as powerful as knowing what you will do
- Uncover the power of a single well-positioned lead magnet that converts without complex email sequences
- Find out why pricing at the “sweet spot” of $297 helped Sal attract the right customers without complicated sales tactics
- Explore how listening to your existing customers can drive product development and simplify your marketing
