Hey everyone in this episode of the Effective Ecommerce podcast I want to do something a little bit different I want to do an update episode because it’s been a little while obviously I had the intro about me at the beginning of the podcast but I haven’t really done an update Plus to be quite honest it’s the holiday season right now I’m recording this it’s just a few days before Christmas and I want to take a little break I just came off a vacation and I haven’t had time to record podcasts because I have some really good podcasts coming up that I want to give a lot of attention to and I want to make sure when I do finally release them that they’re really good. So with that being said let me just give you a little update on everything we’re going to talk about in this episode.

So I’m going to do an update on my new company performance a nut butter which is live it’s on Amazon right now and you can go to Amazon and search for if you wouldn’t mind search for keto snack that’s one of the keywords I’m trying to rank for search for keto snack and if you’re interested in buying it by Performance Nut Butter obviously when you receive it if you liked it leave a five star review it would be huge it’s obviously very helpful if you’re in the Amazon world you know how important it is to get the reviews. So let’s talk a little bit about Performance Nut Butter in just a second but right now if you two Performance Nut Butter calm it’ll forward you to the Amazon page I will be launching the Shopify website probably early in the next week or two as you can hear my voice as well I’m getting over a cold that’s part of the reason I did not do any the podcast episodes in the last week or two is because I’ve been I’ve had a little bit of a cold and my voice has been sounding really bad.

So I’ll do some updates on PNB a little bit more some updates on Effective Ecommerce and Bdancewear as well. So Bdancewear in then at the end of this episode I’m going to talk a little bit about the upcoming episodes because we have some really fun upcoming episodes for Effective Ecommerce. So you’re definitely gonna want to continue listening to this podcast. So one project I haven’t talked a lot about I don’t think I’ve talked a lot about on this show is a podcast called the podcast called how to do your s and how to do your s is like a for fun podcast I started three four years ago and the whole premise of it was I’m gonna start a podcast that is about anything and everything that I want to talk about at time I think I was I’m now I’m almost breaking that year-old mark but at the time it was just purely because I didn’t know what I was passionate about it surely wasn’t passionate about dance clothing which was my main company and I wanted an outlet for something that I could feel like I could do and really enjoy and that was how to do your s. So anyways the reason I bring this up is I am going to be doing a reflection of and doing some planning for in the next week and I’ve been releasing that as a podcast every year. So if you’re interested in learning more about me if you’re interested in learning more about lifestyle optimization just generally improving your life I would check out the how to do your twenties podcast and it’s not just for people in their 20s.

It’s really for people of all ages there’s episodes ranging and from all kinds of things we do have travel episodes and how to do freelancing and had a certain Ecommerce business and all that kind of stuff but we also have literally everything you could imagine on there. So I did one episode for instance on yoga and you know you don’t have to be in your s to do yoga. So if you’re interested in a little bit more about me and what I do for fun in my free time etc check that out plus I will be in the next probably two weeks probably right after the new year I’ll release this episode I’ll be releasing an episode that has all my goals for including personal goals and business goals and I’ll also talk about how I review my year and this is something I’ve recently started doing that really helps I think reviewing and planning are two very important things if you look at the military this is a the military is a machine that’s been built to basically win wars and I feel like business is kind of like a war one of the big things that they do that most entrepreneurs don’t do is they spend a lot of time planning and then after they do a mission after they fight a battle they look back and they look at what happened most people don’t do this specifically most people never look at the previous three months previous six months previous year and say hey what was good about it what was bad about it what did I like doing that I should do more of what did I not like doing that I should try to outsource or do less of and it’s also very applicable for business it’s what what things that I do that contributed to more money in my pocket that’s really important and if you look at it there’s probably only a few things you did that we’re really important and really contributed to money in your pocket on the flip side there’s Rob ibly a lot of things you did that were a waste of time. So anyways without going into too much detail on that if you’re interested in learning more about my process and what I do check out how to do your s in the next week or two.

I will be launching that episode but in the meantime there is a ton of content I’ve had a lot of Pat Flynn I’ve had Pat Flynn on their which was one of my favorite episodes you can check that out I’ve had John Lee Dumas if you’re big into the podcasting world you know about him got a bunch of other like big-name people on their Dominic D’Agostino which I’m gonna be starting ketosis and a few and about a week Wow. So anyways let’s get into some other updates here let see what we got. So one of the big things I don’t think I’ve said this on the podcast yet but I did launch Performance Nut Butter on Amazon and I got a decent amount of five-star reviews I was really happy with it and getting five-star reviews is critical. So if you do want to try the product which a lot of you guys that watch my YouTube channel have seen the creation a Performance Nut Butter and it’s a macadamia coconut cashew blended nut butter super tasty just those three ingredients plus a little Himalayan sea salt. So there’s no artificial stuff if you’re in ketosis if you’re a paleo if you’re vegan this product is fine if you’re and have diabetes this I mean I haven’t done extensive research but it should be fine there’s no added sugar it’s basically. So that’s up on Amazon and some other interesting news is I’m gonna be ordering my second production run pretty soon which is both scary and exciting as spending money in that fashion always is. So that’s one thing Bdancewear one of my goals I will say for 2018 is try to spend just two days a month on this and maybe I’ll have a few stretches where I do a week or two or three weeks really trying to optimize that my goal is to hit a million dollars in revenue in 2018 which I think is very doable this last year we did I think about $800,000,

revenue I could be wrong on that but right around there. So million dollars is 100% doable it would be really cool to hit that that milestone. So there is that I will be starting up YouTube live at 5:00 p.m. PST starting in the new year I was doing that for a while but every week on Wednesday 5:00 p.m. PST I’ll be doing a YouTube live for about an hour answering any questions. So you all you have to do is go to my YouTube channel type in Effective Ecommerce at YouTube you can find it in you watch the video and you can ask questions to me live and as always if you have questions you can leave them in the comments for the YouTube videos. So that’s most the big things I wanted to talk about I really want to thank everybody that’s been listening in this podcast it’s been very rewarding experience. So far and a lot of people have left five-star reviews and I’ve been announcing people that I’m doing like I said I do free I didn’t said this episode but I said in past episodes I do free one-on-one consulting all you have to do is leave a five star review in iTunes and I would pick people at random once a month and. So the earlier you leave a review the more likely you are to win that free one-on-one consulting session plus it really helps me out it helps out the podcast. So definitely do that. So some ups upcoming episodes I promised I would talk about that let me pull up my list right here got a lot of good ones. So Facebook Ads the next episode we’re gonna do is going to be on Facebook Ads we’ll probably launch that on the maybe the first yeah probably the first what else do we have we have advanced Facebook Ads Pinterest how to them of your business how do get the Wales your VIPs how to really take care of them influencer marketing which is going to be a fun one because that’s gonna be something I’m doing a lot of soon scaling your Ecommerce business Virtual Assistants how to hire them how to give them tasks what types of tasks to give them Amazon basics a bunch of Amazon marketing stuff we’re doing a lot of Amazon marketing stuff coming up soon online store a twosie just just a ton of information right here. So definitely stay tuned for the podcast this is not the best episode I know I’m a little flat.

I can tell them a little bit more nasally and just not full of energy on this one but I still hope you enjoyed listen to some of my updates and like I said if you want to know more about what I’m doing how to do your s check out that podcast on iTunes I’ll be releasing a complete episode of updates in the next two weeks.
