Sam. Sa. Foreign. Hello, good morning, good afternoon and welcome. So this is something new that I started last week and I'm determined to keep it on. Basically what I'm going to do every Friday moving forward is I'm going to be doing a weekly roundup so you join me at the co working office here in Javea. I've been back here now for the first time in what seems like a long time after self isolating and just sort of staying away. So it's really good to be back and what I want to do on a Friday is just give like a little sneak peek at what's been happening behind the scenes here at Boostly, share some of your wins Team Boostly members and and also welcome new members to Team Boostly and just sort of give an overview of what we have been doing. Now, this isn't just about me. I would love to also know about your week. So if you're watching this live with me or even if you're watching back on the replay, then please do get involved. First of all, let me know who's with me live, hashtag live if you're watching with me. And if you're watching on the replay, just leave a hashtag live replay. So thank you very much. We have Angela who's tuning in, which is. Which is lovely. Thank you very much for being here with us. So first and foremost, it's been a really good week. It's been a lot more manageable this week. Last week was definitely crazy. There's a lot going on. But this week has felt very manageable. Even though a lot has been done, which is great, it's definitely felt a lot more manageable. On Thursday was my podcast day so I was gone from being the host to being a guest and I was on two podcasts. So there's the Austin Linney podcast based over in America and the Mike and E Str Secrets podcast. I did a 90 minute double podcast for them last night which was insane. We didn't get finished about 11 o', clock, but it was really good. I went through loads of direct booking tactics and I know that their audience are going to love it. So when those podcast episodes are out, I'll be sure to let you know. And Hadeel, hello. Thank you very much for tuning in live with us. And David, I can see David there as well. Thank you very much, David for saying live. So also as well, let me know what you've been doing, let me know what you've been doing to be proactive in form of Getting bookings, obviously, Boostly Academy members, we have been in phase four of our 90 day quick start training. Hey Gar, how are you doing, buddy? And phase four is all being all about Facebook ads. So with the Facebook ads, we had the expert Taega come in this week and take a really broke down the lead ad system and it is so powerful and it's so cost effective and now we've got people in the Boostly Academy who are going through all of the leads that have come through on the back of it, calling them and hopefully turning inquiries into booking. So we will, we will see about that. But I do want to share a win and we've got a pretty cool win. Let me just bring up this right here. So I'm not going to name the name because it was posted in the group and I don't know if they want to bring this out to the world or not. So I've hidden obviously their identity at the top here, but it's such a cool one. Let me bring it over my face and I'll read it with you. So, not that I'm a stalker or anything, but I've been watching with ridiculous amount of interest the first, first person who signed up to our email list who had received the five automations that I adapted from Mark's templates and implemented it because of the mailchimp training. So what we did prior was mailchimp email marketing. If you remember, I was a bit unsure and worried about being seen as spammy. The person signed up on 30 January, opened all the emails, clicked several links in said emails and yes, you guessed right, she booked this morning. I am not ashamed to say I did a happy little dance. Love this group, love the learning. Have a great weekend. Now that literally made my day when I saw that when I see people take the training that we put together and implement and it get wins, it's the best. So everybody in the Boostly Academy will know who that is. Little round of applause and again, if you've got any wins, then again, please do share them with me in the chat box below. Let us know what you've been doing. Any wins that you have had, it's always greatly appreciated and I do go back and read every single one of them, which is amazing. So next, what I wanted to do we've done that is I wanted to just say a big hello and welcome to Team Boostly 2. Andy Cleary, to Historo, to Sam Cullen, to Richard Lewis and to Mike Hellstrom. So all of those Gents have signed up for a Boostly website this week. Variva have gone for the Boostly1 page which is new and I'll show an example in a second because we've got a really cool example, totally left field. It surprised me and Tom and the whole team, but it is amazing. And also as well, we've got the Boostly done with you and the done for you. So Sam and Richard and Mike and Histor and Andy have gone for different variations but they've all now got a boosted website and they're currently building it and getting it to go live, which is awesome. Talking about websites that have gone live. So what I am going to do now is I'm going to flip over and I'm going to share my screen when that comes in. And just to let you know, I have got such a cool bit of new kit coming, it's going to make the whole live streaming experience 10 times better. And I've got some real cool toys to show you over a couple of weeks. But this, this website just went live this week. This is Simone Waterside Cottages up in Almouth, so northeast. And this is a great example of a boosted website that looks so good and I'm so proud of it. The team have done such a fantastic job. Everything is in the right places. The book now button, lovely main image you got, you know, you've got a real cool feel of a countryside cottage right there. We've got real nice easily and lovely laid out website that is so simple to view and go through with the reviews and it's very, very clear how to book now. So well done, well done. So this is an example of a done for you website. Next we've got an example of a new one, the Boostly one page. Alex got this one, Alexandra, and it's in, it's up, it took a couple of days and it's live. So again, this is just a simple one page website, nothing fancy, nothing plush, but it's just got everything in the right place and it's talking exactly to the right people. So again, example of a one page website. 95% of the copy was done for Alexandra. All she had to do was amend a few things and it was live. And this is the example I wanted to show you. Right, we do hospitality websites, but we had somebody from France join and he signed up to this website because he just needs something for his garage. It's a fantastic example. Kathryn is partner of Neil and it just literally surprised us all by what they did, which is phenomenal. And now the website's up and it's live and it's an example of a onepage and we've got lots of people now contacting us wanting the onepage for their different industry and niche, which we never planned for. But because we've got so many people asking for it, we thought, well, why not? So we're going to be rolling something out over the course of next couple. It's a totally separate domain but it was amazing this week when, when we had someone come to us and say, can we do this? Which was, which was surprising but amazing. Emma, hope you're doing well and Alan as well. Let me bring up on the screen, Alan, thank you so much for commenting live. So we've got Alan, Emma J. So yeah, let us know what you think of this. You know what, what do you think of this idea? I mean, you know, I was shocked when I saw it, but it was amazing. And also as well, we have got new members of the content creator. So the boosted content creator, if you don't know, it's something that we offer where we create 30 to 40 pieces of content every month, works for all the social media channels. We also give you email templates and I am cooking up something in the background which I am so looking forward to with Louise from Rental Tonic. I put a little sneak peek in the group tonight and I wonder if you can guess what it is by literally looking at something like that we are going to make everybody lives so much easier for their website and this is going to be really cool. So I'm really looking to do that. So Content Creator this week we've got Rayanne, Loretta, Matt joined, Amanda, David Barrett, Linda Reid, Mandy, Sarah Higgins. Welcome everybody to the Boosted Content Creator. It is awesome to see you join join our group and I'm really looking forward to seeing everything that you can do with the content over the course of the couple of weeks. So yeah, that's been the week, it's been a real good one. I've had some really good conversations with Wheelhouse, which is the pricing software company. Those of you may or may not know about Wheelhouse. I have spoken it a little bit. I've actually got Andrew from Wheelhouse coming in on Monday and he is going to be doing some demos with us. So we're going to go through the back end, we're going to go through the what it all means and the simplest way of connecting up. I think it's such a cool software. I've been playing around with it. We've got about 500 members of Team Booster now in there ready to go. It's just a case of getting different locations added because it is so new and brand new. It's a real young company, but it's young, it's energetic and I'm really looking forward to sort of helping them and getting more Team Boothly members on there. So that's been the week, it's been eventful. 6,000 words of the book Direct Playbook have been put down this week, which is insane. Seeing that we've had kids off school again for one reason or another. I've been able to get 6,000 words done, which is. Which is insane. Four chapters have now been done. We've got six more to go. I've just covered or I'm just covering. I'm just about to start social media which is going to be a real big chapter in this book and I'm looking forward to talking all about it. If you want to find out more about the book, what I'm putting together, it's going to be released in November of this year, which seems a long way away, but there's so much work that goes into a book that you don't even realize that I'm still figuring out now. But if you want to find out more, go to boostly.co.ukbook and you can come and join the the pre release squad if you wish. But thank you so much for everybody that tuned in live and hello to everybody that's watching back on on the replay.
