So now that you know what not to do. Here's what you need to know before scaling your business. At least for me. These were the things that I did before scaling. I'm sure some people will say there's more things you should do or you don't have to do all these things. But remember this is just me documenting and sharing my experience what you guys these are the most important boxes that I tried to check before. I scaled my business past $3,000 a day four thousand dollars a day before I was at that 5K a day 10K A Day level this is what I was doing. All right. So the first thing that we need is one to two great products and a reliable agent. I don't need to go any further into this. I've covered both of these you already know. The next one is a support team for the email and for the phone now, this is again kind of obvious but a lot of people do not have a phone number on their website and I'm telling you is a huge booster and conversions and in customer satisfaction and in terms of the email you need that you should have had that already, you know, so No, excuse you cannot skip these two if you skip these two you will ultimately fail. You will get some sales maybe doing your scammy little game, but you will fail ultimately overall. The next thing I would recommend is an email and SMS marketing team. Now when I say team you literally could just have one person. I literally have one person and she does an amazing job. I worked with an agency where they had like five people like they have one person that did copywriting and one person I did images and like no one person is sufficient for this job find the expert work with the expert and I actually can recommend her to you guys. If you are looking for somebody to work with she is available. I don't blow this up now because I really like working with her and she pretty much only works with me, but she reaches she recently asked me if I could shout her out. So shout out to Julia and E Vision marketing her company we like them. credit card credit cards are very clutch when you are scaling because like I talked about last time with the cash flow. It takes a couple days to get this money from Shopify and from PayPal especially worth mentioning here. When you start scaling your store when you get to 20K a month 30k a month Shopify is going to put a reserve. Hold on your account. So what this means, is that for the next three months. 90 days they are going to hold 25. I don't remember if it's 25 or 30% of the money, but they hold about 25% of your money for for the whole three months at the end of three months. You get this fat check you get all the money back that you've accumulated so it will come back but then cash flow can get a little thin in those times, especially if you're scaling in those times. So the credit card super helpful, I would recommend Amex gold or the MX plat. I do have a link down below, you know feels like a YouTube video. No, but for real if you guys want to get the AmEx card and get a bunch of points on signing up if you use the affiliate link like we both get points. So, you know, if you want to show some love and support and also you get points too. So it's a win-win next up custom video content. We already discussed this one in depth, but again, a lot of people don't do this and then it comes back around to bite them and when it when when they ultimately get banned, okay, and then they they got nothing. Left now. So use your own videos people. If you are not capable of filming a video because you have like only two fingers or something then go and find somebody that you know that can do it because you need this if you're gonna really scale there's not one big brand that I've ever seen that is ripping content. They may have did that in the day one day like month one. But like none of the big brands do that now, it's not the move. There's a couple bonuses as well. These are not essential but for me they kind of were and they really helped so first is a SEO expert. You can hire these people on a contract for them to work for you for like a month two months and they just grind out a bunch of Articles and backlinks and really just make your name solid in Google's algorithm. I don't know all the way how SEO works, but I know that after I hired this guy from Fiverr we were getting ranked Higher and Higher and Higher and Higher and now we're rank number one for our name and for some Search terms around our product like, you know, if we go to incognito and then we search sleep band. We will pop right up. You know, we're the first the we're the first the second and the third. And we have this so, you know the SEO is important for sure. Yeah, next up. I would say I'm not even gonna open this up again because I gotta click through everything the next up I would say is a Google ads agency. Just like I said with the SMS and email people you could have one person. You don't need an agency. I don't know why I put that word in there. You could have one person that focuses strictly on that. I think it's good to have an expert focus on a different Channel while you focus on your main channel, of course, you could always learn it for yourself too. Like you don't have to have an agency right especially if you're tight on cash don't do that. Just learn it for yourself the point that I was trying to make though when I'm saying these other things like SEO Google social media is that now right before you really start going hard on your budget on your main ad platform now is when you really want to start branching out in these other worlds because it will help Fuel That Fire like you're throwing your money at this thing and it's catching. Lame and when we boost it up with some SEO when we boosted up with Google ads when we post every day on tiktok and on Instagram this thing really starts to roll roll and next thing, you know, you got a blaze, you know, you're making a bunch of money. So these are the most important things that I would recommend you do before you start really scaling your business because this will allow you to scale it and maintain it for some
