Hey, what is up, dudes and dudettes. Welcome to episode number one of That Marketing Dude Show. And in this episode, I just want to thank you guys so much for checking this episode out. You know, this is a new brand new show. I’m hoping that you guys are going to love everything that I’ve got coming up. Like I said in the episode previously, like, the intro episode to the show, I want this show to be something completely different to everything else that’s out there in this sort of, like, digital nomad and travel space. So I’m excited to bring you guys the very first episode, and I’ve got 28 other episodes that I’ve already recorded for the next eight weeks. You know, I’ve got some great people coming on and we’ve got some great travel stories to share with you guys too.
Now, as I said in the last episode, this episode and the next two episodes, they’re going to be solo episodes. So normally I get a guest on and we’re going to co-host an episode or I’ve got somebody on to talk travel stories, but these next three episodes are going to be a little bit different because I am going to be helping you guys who maybe don’t have a website or, like, an online business yet. I’m going to help you guys set that up.
So in this three-part series or these next three episodes, I’m going to be breaking down what you guys can do for the next 90 days. So this episode we’re going to be talking about the first 30, next episode the second 30, third episode the third 30 days. I’m going to help you guys go from maybe you have an idea of what it is you want to do online, and by the end of the 90 days you’ve got a website up; you’ve got content on there; you’ve got content going out on a regular basis; you’ve got social media set up; you’ve got an email list starting to grow; and you’re now also reaching out to other people in your space and hopefully growing your audience and starting to get your name out there.
So in this episode we’re going to be going through the first 30 days. There’s a lot of things to go through in this 30 days, so I have gone and created a calendar for you guys that you can go and download on the show notes for this episode which you will find at tmdshow.com/1. That’s the number one. tmdshow.com/1. Go and download that calendar right now, and that way you can follow along as I go through day by day. And then we’re going to be doing the same for the second and third episode too when we go through the second 30 days and the third 30 days. So go over there, download that, and then we will jump straight into that right now.
So like I said in the intro, guys, this 30 days is going to be pretty jam-packed. I’m going to try and go through these 30 days as quickly as I can because each day we’ve got pretty much something different. But the idea is that this is going to take you about an hour each day or I want you to spend about an hour each day, you know. So if you have got other things going on, then, you know, it’s just not going to take up too much of your time. But then every seven days we’ve got a day off or a day to catch up. So especially for this first month, you know, it’s all going to be brand new to you; make the most of those catch-up days. Or if you manage to do everything, take that day off. You know, I don’t want you guys to get too overwhelmed. So, yeah, make the most of that.
So jumping straight into day one. This is where we’re going to list out any potential ideas that we could have for building a business. You know, write down some of, like, your hobbies, passions; anything you, like, have some, like, interest in or, you know, you’ve seen other people making money online doing whatever you want. Write out a list of potential businesses that you could go through. You know, once you’ve got all those down on paper, you can go through and, you know, pick the one that you want to, you know, get started with, at least for the first time around. You know, you might change your mind. You know, in six months’ time, you might think, “No, I’m not enjoying this anymore.” That way when you go through this process again, it will be a lot quicker and, you know, you’ll go through everything much quicker. But, yeah, write down everything you’re interested in and then we’re just going to pick one from that.
So day number two we’re now going to create your dream customer. Now, this is going to be a fictional customer. I want to call this a dream avatar and your perfect avatar. So create this person: make sure you give them a name; their age; you know, what family they have; are they male or female; hobbies; their fears; their dreams. I really want you to build out this person. If this could be a real person, that’d be even better. But most people might not have that person, or it could be yourself if the business that you chose is something that, like, relates to you as well. You know, you could’ve been the potential customer for whatever it is that you want to, like, go down the road and eventually create and stuff like that. If you can build it around a real person, fantastic; if not, we’re going to create a fictional person. And this person is going to be who we’re going to be creating everything for. Later on, once we start creating content and products or, you know, finding other products to promote, we’re going to be, like, creating everything for this person.
Now, what you do now or what you write down now for this person isn’t set in stone. You know, once you start building an audience and you start communicating with people, you can, you know, change this person slightly or create a completely different avatar. Ideally, this will be something that’s going to be a continual process; you know, you’re going to be changing this all the time. I am constantly changing my dream avatar or my perfect avatar for the TMD site or That Marketing Dude. You know, I originally started out as, you know, trying to help all people who want to create an online business but now I’m now settling down on helping digital nomads and location-independent entrepreneurs or those of you, like, trying to become either; helping you build businesses that will support and fund the travel that you want to do. So I’m really helping people build a lifestyle-type business, rather than anybody with an online business. So, like I said, this is going to be something that’s constantly changing. But for now, I just want you to create that fictional person.
Now, onto day three. We’re now going to be finding some competition. I want you guys to use Google and a website called similarweb.com.
Now, similarweb.com you can, you know, search for a specific category. So, for example, say the business that we decided to do was helping golfers out. For some reason, I always end up going to golf and I don’t even play golf. Anyway, we’re going to be using golf in this example. You can go to SimilarWeb and you can find a load of different websites that use golf or golf as their theme, their niche. Try and get a little bit more specific than golf; let’s say, left-handed golfers with putting, you know. Then we can find similar websites, we can search for that on Google, we can use that website, and then what I want you to do is all the websites that you find that are, like, the same niche as yours – so this, like, “potential competition”. I want you to make a list of these. So create a spreadsheet, put all these websites down on a list.
Day number four, five and six we’re going to be continuing to do this. And not only do I want you guys to, like, be building this list of websites that are the same but I also want you to create another list of all the websites that you like the layout of. So the way that the website looks; like, the colours that they use; especially if they’re – ideally, sorry, they should be in the same niche as the website that you want to create or the business that you want to create. So these four days, build that list up. All the websites that you really like; the potential competition; all the ones with a layout that you like; the one with, like, images that you like the look of; and the ones with all the colour scheme, you know. So what we’re doing is we’re building a portfolio so when we come to building our own website, we have, you know, some websites that are successful out there right now. We can model these websites. We’re not going to copy them; we’re going to be modelling them.
So instead of trying to guess what’s working, we can take parts that we like off websites that already work and incorporate them into our own website. That way, we’re taking out a lot of the guesswork and it’s just going to be a much easier process. Later on you can change the colours that you use, you know; you can always go through and redesign. But right now I want to make this as easy as possible, so we’re just going to use what is working right now and model off of that. Now, that’s the first six days. Day seven we’re going to take the day off. Or if you didn’t manage to do all of that, go and play some more catch-up. If anything that you should be playing catch-up on for that first seven days would be your dream customer; you want to get, like, extremely specific on that person.
Now, moving onto day eight, we’re going to be looking into whether or not we’re going to be creating blog posts, podcasts, or videos.
So either writing, audio, or video. Now, the way that you can look into see which one your audience prefers is you can go onto, like, YouTube and have a look at how many YouTube channels for the industry that you are in or the industry that you want to, like, work in. So you can type in, like, left-handed golfers on YouTube and see how many YouTube channels there are. But, more importantly, you want to see how many subscribers these channels have. If they have a lot of subscribers – and by a lot I mean at least, like, 1000 – then you know that video is something that this audience will potentially want to watch. Or the same with, like, podcasting. You know, if you find there’s a lot of podcasts around the topic that you want to, like, create your business on, then podcasting could potentially be something that you can, like, go into. And the same with blogging; you know, just do some Google research. You’re definitely going to find blogs based on, like, the topic that you want to talk about.
So just to make this nice and easy for you guys, we’re just going to go with blogging, okay. Later on you can change up to podcasting or video but for now, just to make this nice and easy, we’re going to go with blogging. I can pretty much guarantee you’re going to find blog posts written on whatever topic that you want to write about. So we’re going to go with blogging, but do that research still, you know, and add to the spreadsheet that you created the other day, like, all the YouTube channels that you find, all the podcasts that you find, and, you know, some of the good websites that you find that create good blog content or write good blog posts, create good audio, create good video. You know, add that to your list because with this big list that we’re creating, we’re going to be referring back to this later on in these, like, 90 days. So make sure you’re, like, keeping that nice and neat as well.
Now, moving onto day number nine. We’re now going to start doing some content planning. So we’re going to be getting some ideas on potential things that we could write about for our own website. And the best way to do that is to find out what content out there right now is extremely popular. So you can use a website called buzzsumo.com. That’s buzzsumo.com. And what you can do is you can either – you can select, like, a website or you can, like, create, like, a search like you would do in, like, Google, whatever you would search. You can do that inside of Buzzsumo and it will show you – by the amount of shares that the post has got, it will show you the most popular ones. Now, the free version of Buzzsumo, I think you get, like, 20 or 50 search results. So I would not recommend going to the paid version right now where you would get, like, a lot more results; it’s fairly expensive and we’re trying to keep this as inexpensive as possible.
So just use the free version for now, and have a look at, like, the amount of shares that these websites are getting for specific blog posts. If you find one that has a good amount of shares, add that to the list. The blog post itself, you know; copy the URL and add that to your list of, like, potential content or popular content that you can potentially, like, go and create a version of that yourself.
Now, the reason why we’re doing this for day nine and day 10 is because we want to create content that is more likely to, like, rank really well on Google but also we want content that, you know, your potential audience and, like, the people in this, like, niche industry, whatever you want to call it, we want to create content that is more likely to be shared with other people so we can grow our audience quicker. So if we take something that’s working really well already and just, you know, make it better and, you know, just create something that’s better than the version that you’ve found, then hopefully we’re going to get people sharing that with everyone else. So we might as well create something that we know has done well before and just try to create a better version of that. So that’s day number nine and day number 10: keep building that list out with potential content ideas.
Now, for day number 11, 12 and 13, this is where we get into a little bit of, like, some of the boring stuff, and that is, like, the company registration stuff. So I am not a legal lawyer; I’m not a lawyer so I can’t give you, like, legal advice. But you do need to make sure you, like, register your business. You don’t want to have the government coming down and chasing you down for, like, taxes and stuff later on. So look into what sort of companies that you can register yourself under. Most people normally get started just, like, a sole proprietor which basically means you are the business. Again, I’m not offering legal advice; you need to look into that yourself for your own country. But what I – for the first day, just look into the different types of company registrations and see which one is going to work best for you. And if you want to and I would recommend it is to, you know, speak to, like, a lawyer. You could probably find someone that would give you, like, a free session; just to ask them what they think would be the best for you. I started off as a sole proprietor, but I’m not recommending anything for you; you need to sort that out yourself.
But for day number 12, what we’re going to be doing is we’re going to start working on sort of, like, our mission statements. We’re going to, like, decide what direction we want to take this business and why we’ve started this business; who are we trying to help. Now, when it comes to creating a mission statement, which is basically sort of, like, the goal of the business, I’ve found one little formula works very well. And I want you to write this down because I want you to, like, work this out for yourself. So the statement is: I help blank to blank with/by blank. Now, again, that is: I help blank to blank with or by blank. Now, what this statement does is it says, like, who it is that you’re helping; what it is that you’re helping them with; and how you’re helping them.
So going back to our golfing example, we can say: I help left-handed golfers who – sorry, you can use “who” or “to”. So I help left-handed golfers who want to improve their putting by writing and creating tutorials on YouTube or on, like, the website. So I help left-handed golfers who want to improve their putting by creating video tutorials for them. That’s one example of what you can use for this statement. So what I want you to do is to, like, do something like that yourself. You know, going back to the business topic that we chose on day number one, using the avatar that we’ve gone and created on day number two, I want you to create a sentence like that. That way, you know who it is that you’re helping, what it is you’re helping them with, and how you are going to help them.
And then on day number 11 [sic], still with, like, the business ownership sort of stuff, we’re going to go and open a second bank account, just so we can keep, like, the business expenses separate from, like, your personal expenses. When it comes to, like, tax time and stuff in the future, having everything separate will make life so much easier, not only for you if you’re going to be doing your own accounting or if you decide that you want to go and hire an accountant, this will make their job a lot easier as well. And then day number 14 is another day off or a catch-up day. Whatever it is that you struggled with in that week, you could play catch-up or take that time off and mentally recuperate.
Now onto day number 15, we are going to be jumping into buying a domain name and hosting for our business. Now, when it comes to buying a domain name and hosting, I recommend getting it, like, separate. You know, you can go to places where they offer you the domain name and hosting the website; keep it separate. The domain name is, like, a yearly fee that you are going to be paying to own whatever web URL that you want; you know, golfing.com. That is, like, the domain name. So the domain registrar registers that, but then the hosting is where the website is going to live. So you need both if you want to have your own website.
Now, I recommend namecheap.com as the domain registrar, and then I personally use SiteGround for my hosting. I could spend an entire episode talking about, you know, why you should pick SiteGround over a lot of others, but I’m not going to do that in this episode. Just take it from me that SiteGround is someone that I have never ever had issues with. I’ve gone through three or four different hosting companies and I’ve been with SiteGround for about two or three years now, and I’ve not had a single issue with them. Live chat is amazing; everything’s just amazing. So don’t go with, like, Bluehost just because people tell you it’s cheap; SiteGround is cheap as well. And if you do have the calendar, I do have, like, the breakdown at the bottom which I’ll go through at the end of this episode as well.
But before you – well, if you want help finding your domain name – because on day number 16 we’re going to be registering social media accounts as well. It is great if you can get a domain name that also has all these social media accounts with the same name for free as well; that way, you’ve got, like, consistent branding over everything. Now, there’s a website out there called namecheck.com that you can type in, like, a phrase or a word – preferably not a phrase, actually. You know, you can type in a word and it will check whether or not the domain names are free and then also all the social media accounts. So use that before you go and buy your domain, but, you know, try and get something that you can, like, get consistent branding across each.
Now, what I would recommend when it comes to day number 16 and registering all these social media accounts, go and create a social media account on, like, every single platform; you know, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram – LinkedIn, that’s not one. My mind’s gone blank now, but, you know, all the social media accounts that they say, like, the account name is free. Try and find one that all of them are free. Go and create them all. Even if we don’t end up using them straightaway, you know, you’ve got them all registered and nobody else can take them, just in case you decide to use them in the future. So day number 16 is just going to be about creating those social media accounts, hopefully all under the same name that you found using that namecheck.com.
Now, day number 17 we are going to go and buy a theme for our website. And that is Divi. That’s the theme that I recommend, Divi by Elegant Themes. This is optional; you can use, like, one of the free themes that come, like, preinstalled on WordPress. Personally I wouldn’t recommend it; I would go with a paid – like, a premium theme, just because you – well, the main reason to go with a paid premium theme is because you get constant updates. So WordPress are constantly changing their system, you know, more for, like, security risks and, you know, making it better; sorting bugs out. If you have a premium theme, then the developers are going to be updating it; any sort of, like, security holes in their theme, they’re going to be patching them and updating them.
And personally I use Divi for everything; it is such a beautiful website. It’s so easy to customise. I have a podcast episode coming out later on with a lady called Kathy who loves Divi as well, and we spent the whole episode talking about why we love Divi and why you guys should be using it. You know, it is a drag-and-drop template so you can build websites nice and easily and quickly. And one of the other days later on in the month is going to be all about learning and, you know, watching some, like, tutorial videos on how you can use Divi to build a website how you want it to look. So everything you see on thatmarketingdude.com, that is all built with Divi. And all the other websites that I have, that’s all built with Divi. If you wanted to save yourself a little bit of money because Divi is $69 for the year, there is an option to pay $250 for, like, lifetime access. If you can afford that, I’d recommend it; if not, we’re going to be budgeting for the $69 for the year. So Divi, recommend it; absolutely love it.
Day number 18 we’re going to be buying ConvertKit. Now, ConvertKit is going to be your email service provider. So we want to be building email lists. If you haven’t heard the phrase that the money’s in the list, basically what that means is you can build an email list of people who want to hear from you and when you’ve got something that you want to sell, promote, or something, you can send it to these people that already know you, they already like you, they already trust you; they’re more likely to take you up on whatever it is that you are offering. Now, ConvertKit is absolutely amazing. You’ve probably heard of other email service providers like AWeber or GetResponse or Infusionsoft; you know, all of these. ConvertKit is one that I absolutely fell in love with when I joined up. It costs $29 a month for up to 1000 subscribers. Now, the good thing with ConvertKit over something like AWeber, which works out to be a little bit cheaper on paper, is that ConvertKit counts each unique email address.
So later on when you start creating multiple email lists, you know, if you had the same – say, if you had three email lists; if on ConvertKit you’ve got that one email address signed up to all three, then on ConvertKit you’re paying for that one email address. However, with AWeber, if you have the same email address on all three email lists, you’re paying for the same email address three times. So it counts, like, each email address, whereas ConvertKit counts each unique email address. So once you start building your list, it might work out to be a little bit more expensive initially but in the long run it’s going to work out to be a lot cheaper, and inside they’ve got so many cool automation rules and it’s amazing. You can build email sequences really quickly. Again, this is going to be something we’re going to dive into later on. But ConvertKit, absolutely love it, absolutely recommend it. Go and register that.
And then day number 19 we’re going to go and create our five pages on our website. We’re not going to be putting anything on them just yet; we’re just going to go in into WordPress which you – once you’ve linked, like, your domain and your hosting, the hosting company will show you how you can do that in their tutorials. SiteGround has, like, an amazing tutorial and shows you how you can install WordPress on your website as well. Install Divi; hopefully you’ve done that on day number 17 as well. Day number 19 we’re going to create those five pages. They are going to be the home page, the about page, the contact page, the blog page, and a privacy policy. Again, we’re not going to go and create anything for those pages just yet; we’re just going to go and create those five pages.
Man, my mouth is getting dry. Hopefully you guys are following along; if not, just, like, go back a little bit and make sure you have this calendar that I’m using right now to go through all of this with you. So day number 20 we’re going to be installing the plugins. Now, I do have a WordPress setup guide which you’ll find on the freebies page on my website. There is a link to that on the calendar page. Go and download that, and I show you in there, like, all the plugins that I recommend you have installed on your WordPress website and I have a link to, like, YouTube videos where they walk through how to install them and set them up. So day number 20 and day number 22 – because 21 is a day off/catch-up day. Day number 20 and 22 is going to be, you know, installing those plugins and watching the setup videos and making sure you’ve got them all set up on your website.
Now, day number 23 is going to be setting up your Google Analytics. Google Analytics is something that we definitely, definitely want on our website because this is going to tell us how many people are visiting our website and the amount of pages that they’ve seen; where it is that they’re landing on the website; where it is they’re coming from; you know, where in the world they are. You know, it’s going to give you so much information about your website that you’re going to know sort of, like, what’s working and what’s not. There’s two ways that you can set this up; you can get the code from Google Analytics once you’ve set up an account. You know, you can either enter the analytics code straight into the theme, or what’s easiest is that you can go and download the Google Analytics plugin by Yoast. That’s the one you want to look for: Google Analytics by Yoast. And it will tell you, you know, just paste the – I can’t remember. I think it’s, like, a unique number. The plugin will tell you what it is that you need to copy into there. That is the easiest way to do it, and once you’ve done that I think it might take, like, 24 hours for, like, the data to start being sent to Google. And that way, once we have our website, like, properly launched and we’ve got content coming out and people visiting, you’ll be able to, like, see all the information there is on the people that come to your website.
Now, day number 24 is going to be learning how to use Divi. Because the next, like, four days is going to be all about, you know, building some of those, like, pages that we created back on day 19; we’re going to be building some of those out. So day number 24, go into Elegant Themes or go onto Google and watch some tutorial videos on how the Divi builder works. Because Divi, especially when you’re creating, like, pages, it is a drag-and-drop builder. So you can select how you want the page to look, which is why we, like, saved some of, like, the layouts on day number, like, three, four, five, and six. The reason why I got you to save, like, layouts is because when it comes to, like, using Divi to build it, you can create those sections very, very easily. And then inside of Divi they’ve got all these modules that you can use to pop into those sections that you’ve created and you can make some, like, beautiful little things on there. So go watch some YouTube videos or in the back of Elegant Themes they have some tutorial videos as well. Find out how the builder works; find out, like, what some of, like, the popular modules, how they work; and then we can start building our website.
Because day number 25 we’re going to be filling out the privacy policy. Ideally we want to be talking to a lawyer who can create a privacy policy specifically for us. That is what ideally you should do. It’s going to cost you some money, but that’s ideally what you should do. A lot of people just use, like, a privacy policy template or they just, like, copy somebody else’s and just, like, change, like, the business name on it. That isn’t the right thing to do. Do whatever option that you want; I am not going to be responsible for what happens. Ideally what you should be doing is go into a lawyer, seeing them; it’s probably going to cost you about $150 to do that. If you want to do that, great; if not, you can do the other option. It’s entirely up to you. But day number 25 is going to be all about writing that privacy policy.
Day number 26 and 27 we’re going to be creating our home page. Now, on this home page we want to, like, tell the story of, like, what the website is going to be about; who it is that we’re trying to help; and how it is we’re going to help them. So that mission statement that we created back on day 12, you want to tell that on your home page. And, you know, you can use, like, some of the layouts that we found or the layouts that we liked the look of back when we were doing, like, our competition research. You can use Divi to create that home page; you know, put pictures and, you know, make a home page that’s going to say as soon as people land on it, they know what the website is going to be about and who the website is for. So we’re going to be doing that on day 26 and 27. Day 28 is going to be another day off or playing catch-up.
Day number 29 is going to be filling out your about page. Now, a lot of people, they love – like, the about page is one of the most popular pages on a website. People want to know who it is that’s created the website, what the website is about, and, you know, it’s a great way to sort of, like, tell your story as well, especially if you were, like, your dream customer, your dream avatar, your perfect avatar. If that was originally you, this is a great place to tell your story and sort of, like, how you overcame whatever it is your overcame. You know, just tell people a bit about you. You can look at my about page, thatmarketingdude.com/about. You can use that as an example if you wanted; you can see sort of, like, how I created my about page and you can go and create something similar. But day 29 is going to be all about creating that about page.
And, finally, for day number 30 for this month we’re going to be planning out 10 blog posts. Now, we need some content on our website for once, you know, we start going out there and promoting it and letting people know that we’re out there. We want to have something that people can read. So what we’re going to be doing is we’re going to start planning out – we’re not going to be writing them on this day; we’re just going to be planning out 10 different posts that we could create based off of the popular posts that we found on day nine and 10. You know, we used Buzzsumo to find some popular posts. We’re going to now decide, you know, what 10 posts we’re going to create for our website. Now, what I want you to do is just to create, like, outlines on what you want to cover in each of those 10 posts, because the first 10 days for the next set of 30 days we’re going to be writing those posts out. So the more outline and the more, like, information that you can put on what you want in those posts on this day, the easier it’s going to be to create those posts on the second lot of 30 days.
So that is your first 30 days. You know, like I said, there is a lot to go through there. So, you know, download this calendar so you can see it all. You know, listen through this episode again so you can, like, see it all because I talked a lot and I talked pretty fast in this episode, just because I wanted to try and keep this episode, you know, like, nice and short for you guys. You know, go through all of that. It’s going to be a lot, I know. You know, take your time. And I’ve put, like, four catch-up days or four days off so, you know, you can take your time a little bit. All of this is ideally – you’re supposed to spend, like, an hour; if you need to spend more, do it. Take however long you need to take to go through this. I’m not going to be timing you. You know, say this first 30 days actually takes you 90, then take 90. But ideally you should be able to get all of that done in those 30 days with just, like, an hour spent on it each day.
So all the resources that I mentioned, you know, the cost breakdown of all of that comes, for the first month, to $156.69. Namecheap, that’s going to cost you $10.69 for the year for, like, a dot com domain, if that’s what you decide to go with; your hosting company, SiteGround, that’s going to cost you $48 for the year. Now, a lot of people online, they recommend, you know, all these other fucking hosting companies because it’s $3 a month, it’s $5 a month, $7 a month. None of them will let you pay monthly. So even though it’s $156.69 for the first year, that’s your entire hosting, you know, paid for for the entire year. It works out to be $3.95 a month, but you’re going to have to pay for that for the year upfront, which not a lot of people tell you. So please take into account that, and this is why – like, this is going to be the most expensive month of the three because, you know, we’re buying all of this stuff in the first month.
So Namecheap, pretty much $11 for the year; hosting, SiteGround, $48 for the year; Divi by Elegant Themes, $69 for the year; the email service provider, ConvertKit, that’s going to be $29 a month. So next month we’re going to have to pay that again, which I put in on the calendar as well. And then the WordPress setup guide that I mentioned earlier on, I’ve got the link to the freebies page where you can go and download that. That doesn’t cost you anything. So in total, everything, $156.69. And that is it. That is it for this first 30 days.
With regards to the money, I just want to say, like I said, this is going to be the most expensive month of the three. Before I had this, like, three-part series, I said it’s going to average, like, under $100 a month, and that is true here. You’re going to be spending, like, around about $157 for this month, but next month you’re only going to be spending $30. So, you know, splitting that up over two months, that’s less than $100 a month. It’s just this first month is going to be a little bit more expensive, but you’ve then got all of this stuff that you essentially need if you want, like, this business to, you know, have the best chance of taking off.
So I’m going to, like, tie this episode off here. We are hitting around the 37 minute mark now, and I’ll let you guys know: the next two months, I’m not going to seem so intense; I’m not going to be dropping so much information on you so quickly. So hopefully you guys have managed to follow along with this, and if not – if you haven’t done so already, go and download that calendar. It’s going to make life so much easier for you going through this episode; it’s going to make life so much easier when you’re actually going through all of these tasks as well. So, again, go download that. You will find that on the show notes for today’s episode which is at tmdshow.com/1. That’s the number one. tmdshow.com/1. Go and download that, and get started.
I’d love to hear what you guys think of this episode and, like, the first 30 days. Let me know on the show notes; you know, dropping down, like, any comments that you want down in the bottom on that show notes page. And if you could leave a review for this podcast. Like I said, these first three episodes which I’ve published on the launch day, you know, you can check all three of those out and I’m going to be publishing three episodes a week for the first eight weeks to celebrate the launch of the TMD Show. And I’ve got some amazing co-hosts coming on. We’ve got some amazing topics that we’re going to cover, and we’ve got some brilliant stories to come as well.
So I’m going to leave it here now, guys. Hopefully I will hear – well, you get to hear me in the next episode, episode number two, where we’re going go through the second lot of 30 days where it’s going to be a lot of writing and creation mode. So, again, I will see you guys in the next episode. It’s been an absolute pleasure to be in your ears today. If you could please leave a review on the show and I will start reading some reviews out later on once we get some in. I’d love to read yours out onto the show as well. So, again, for, like, the third time now of saying I’m going to leave it here, I’m actually going to leave it here and I will see you guys in the next episode. Take care. Peace. Fist bump.
