EOF - Entrepreneur on Fire Podcast

 

A few weeks ago I was interviewed by John Lee Dumas of the podcast Entrepreneur On Fire!

Being interviewed on Entrepreneur on Fire is a moment that many entrepreneurs aspire to.  John Lee Dumas has a huge and very faithful audience, and he’s just a super warm, friendly guy!

Our Entrepreneur on Fire interview was recorded very shortly after a big happening in my business life.  My most well created, well designed, most comprehensive launch had just completely fallen flat!

I had done a ton of Facebook ads, my list was growing, and people were going through my sales funnel – until the day the cart opened! On the day the cart opened, I got my first sale while I was on the treadmill in the gym.  I was so excited.  I wanted to implement something that one of my mentors, Todd Herman, said he does in the middle of launches… he picks up the phone and calls some that buy!

So, I jumped off the treadmill and ran to my office.  I wanted to make sure everything had worked and that she had gotten her welcome email, her access to the program, etc.

The wind was COMPLETELY out of my sails when I noticed that NOTHING had worked.  Her tags weren’t applied.  Her welcome email hadn’t been sent.  Her access had been granted – nothing!!!

As I started frantically determining what was going wrong, I was on the phone with infusionsoft.  I was completely shocked to find that my 150 infusionsoft campaigns (and the five years of work that had created them) had all been deleted that morning!

I looked at the computer and started to cry!  The thousands of dollars I had spent on ads were gone.  The launch plan – it was out the window.  How was I going to turn this around?

Listen to the Entrepreneur on Fire episode to hear what happened – and how I am taking that experience and Turning Lemons Into Lemonade!
