Chapters
Welcome to the Freedom Business Podcast and do you want to know what are the top 10 innovations that are going to be powering up the digital coaching industry? I've been working the back burner for many months and I'm recording this podcast after a long time. And in this particular episode, I want you to take notes and note down all the different things that you can do to accelerate your growth and progress in the digital coaching world by noting down these ideas. Let's get into it and enjoy Foreign.
Since I actually recorded a podcast because I've been at the background working on a lot of stuff and if you're listening to this podcast after a while, I just want to say that so happy to be back. And if you are a listener and if you've been waiting for my episodes, you know, I just want to apologize and say I'm going to do more of this more often and I'm. I don't want to have such a long break, but I needed this break because I was working on a lot of stuff. I went back to the drawing board, I looked at what are the elements I need to fix and, you know, improve in my community. And recently we had an event on the month of July called Reboot, where I literally rebooted all of my systems. And in this particular episode and podcast, I'm going to share with you 10 different things or innovations that are going to be powering up the digital coaching industry and where I've been working on this in the background. And that's really making all of our students go crazy in a positive way. And everybody is launching at rocket speed and getting phenomenal results after implemented all of these new ideas. So if you're not a part of my community yet, or if you're not yet subscribed to this podcast, please subscribe to the Freedom Business podcast on Apple and Spotify. And if you're not in my community, there's a link in the description below. You can click on that link and join our community and be there, or even attend my next webinar so that you can, you know, actually be in the action of whatever I'm sharing this episode. Okay, so the first thing is, before I even start, I want you to take notes. And if you're going to be listening to this on my blog, I want you to share your notes below so that you know, you're able to absorb all the top 10 innovations in this particular episode itself. Okay, so let's start with the first innovation. So the first innovation that I actually launched is a Concept called a codex inspired by the movie man of Steel where if you have seen the movie man of Steel, Superman, Superman is sent from Krypton, from Krypton to Earth where he actually carries a codex in his DNA and his father goes and he actually takes the genetic information of that of the Kryptonites and puts it into Superman's body and Superman is sent to Earth because that planet was dying. So I was really inspired by that concept and, and I basically codexified all of my courses. So I've been doing this since 2018. We have more than 30,000 people in our community and I've done more than three rounds of, you know, re recording the courses in my community based on how I can make things simpler, easier and faster. So the first innovation that I see is that everybody's going to be doing in the coaching world is the using, is the use of AI along with.
Whatever courses that you're teaching. Now what, what do I mean by codexification if I have to use that as a word.
So what I basically do is I make people enter all the data which is very core to them through questions. So I basically have a Google document in all of my courses where I ask people to answer a few questions in detail and those quest, the answers to those questions are going to be thrown into ChatGPT. And I also specifically designed an engineered specific prompts that will give all of our students like within 90 seconds an entire game plan on every aspect of the coaching business. So it's starting with designing your own personal codex, your business codex, designing your niche codecs, your curriculum design, codex webinar, selling codex, running Facebook and meta ads. I have a codex for that. If you're going to be running a showcase, you want to sell high ticket stuff in a showcase. I have a codex for that. You want to sell, you want to do one to one coaching our codex. So basically a codex is nothing but a series of questions and prompts that help our students to gain better clarity very specifically to their topic and their niche. And this is really taking the coaching world by storm. And right now the hackathon is going and we have more than thousand people playing the game and basically I started to get a lot of people work on their codexes in this hackathon and I can see the confidence and the conviction and the power of our coaches who are going to be launching with this. Now the second concept of innovation that I have launched connected to the codex is something called as an AI copilot. Now if you use the voice version of ChatGPT on your phone, you can actually ask any question to ChatGPT and it'll give you answers. So in our hackathon, one of the missions, I basically asked all of our students to share all of their data and then based on that, I gave them some specific prompts where they got their entire action plan for 90 days. Now anybody who's stuck, they just need to take up their phone with ChatGPT, speak to ChatGPT and say, hey, ChatGPT, what should I do today based on my game plan? So what ChatGPT is going to be for many of our coaches is more like a co pilot based on the inputs and the prompts that I've given the all of our students earlier. So if you see this one innovation is going to help every single coach have someone like a chatgpt, like a personal coach that is going to basically give them direction and to also give them some validation on all the actions. And this has been a total game changer and I'm really excited to see many of our coaches using this. The third thing that I actually launched as an innovation are kits. So I basically partnered with a company called Offie Needs and we have launched an innovative solution for all of our coaches where coaches can basically launch their own Level 1 and Level 3 kits to bundle along with their products to improve their con, their conversions. So if anybody goes to shop.offineeds.com S H O P O F F I N e e d s.com they'll be able to set up a free account and there's an option there where they can actually go and pick up any product that they want. They can customize it on their own on that particular platform where the company that I've partnered with, offineeds, they will also be able to ship and directly deliver these products to your students. So you don't have to, you know, warehouse. You don't have a warehouse where you're going to be keeping all the stocks and stuff like that. The offineed team will manage the stocks. The best part is it's seamless. So you just need to set up a free account and you just choose the products and the kits that you want to use. They have a few themes and templates that are there. You just need to customize those templates and then you go ahead and just, you know, get them to ship it and just include it as a part of your level one or level three pitch that you're going to be doing for your products. And this one innovation by adding a layer of physical products along with digital products has already taken the coaching industry by storm. I've been doing this for quite a few years, but now we have made it more seamless with a self serving technology platform where I've partnered with offieneeds. That is update number three, the innovation number four that I've been working on with the Tag Mango company. So those of you who do not know what Tag Mango is, Tag Mango is the ultimate all in one solution platform for coaches, trainers and creators who want to launch online which has everything in built into it. Your payment processor, you can host your courses, you can have your community, you can have your, you can do your marketing over there. You can also have your own control center for your students and a whole bunch of other stuff. So I've been working with the Tag Mango founders closely and in the reboot event that I did in July, we actually migrated all of the stuff that I was doing on a platform that I custom built called Polestar. So Polestar is what I launched for my diamond members, which is more like a control center for students where they can track their productivity, their habits and everything else all in one place. And I brought that into something called as Level up inside tagmango. And again, this is an innovation that I did two years ago in the coaching industry to help our students make progress and get results much faster. And now the whole thing as the gamification of learning management systems have taken to a whole, it's gone to a whole different level right now. Even many of the international players and many other similar tool providers have started to copy this concept, which I basically started off two years ago. And now, you know, partnering with tagmango has been a true blessing because the founders and I, we are closely working on improving this product on a monthly basis. And some of our members have used tagmango in the Level up platform. They are, they're launching at rocket speed and they're able to sell their high ticket product with more confidence because now it is a more scalable high ticket product which is not a one to one high ticket product where they have a platform like, like a Level up that they can also offer to their students and that makes the progress tracking high. They can include certifications, achievements and a whole bunch or the gamification elements that are loaded into the LevelUp platform. So the fourth innovation in the world of digital coaching is including a control center for your students for them to track their habits, track their tasks and also go through different achievement levels and certification levels built On a platform like Tagmango. Now, if you do not have a Tag Mango account, just go to sidzsids co.
Tagmango and set up a free account and, and get on a call with them. If you want to include Level up as a part of your own system, that is there. Okay. The fifth innovation that I actually launched recently is a concept called Community Clusters. Again, because I've been closely working with Tagmango as a platform and a platform provider and I'm hosting all of my courses and stuff on Tagmango, I've been working with them and thinking about this one new idea which we have officially launched right now on how can we get ecosystems and knowledge ecosystems to start to bridge with each other or a concept called funnel bridging. So if I have my funnel, my ecosystem, and if you have some other ecosystem that I can befriend, like a friend request that happens on Facebook, something on those similar lines, I just need to give my, you know, my platform key to that person or they need to give their platform key to me and then we approve the request and I can bundle my courses along with theirs. They can bundle their courses along with mine. And this whole concept of community clusters, my actual vision is to, in my down membership group is I want to get more of our members to start collaborating with each other so that we can beat the rising costs of ads. And we are not just dependent on one traffic source to get people into our communities. And when more and more people are able to collaborate with each other, it really reduces the acquisition cost of our customers. And they're also able to be a part of a safe space or an experience once again into, you know, one ecosystem. They can also be a part of other ecosystems. And it's always, it's a win, win, win situation. Because the one win is for the student, the second win is for the partner. The third win is for the creator or the coach. That way. The whole concept of this community clustering has is going to take the coaching industry by storm. And this feature is called Link Up. So we have Level up, which is a control center, and Link up is a feature which is the funnel bridging feature. Now, again, if you're not a part of Tagmango, I would highly recommend if you're a trainer or if you're a coach, and if you want to really be on the cutting edge of innovation and community building in the coaching industry, move to tacmango. You don't need to be on any other platform because I'm personally mentoring the founders on these new ideas, which is not happening anywhere else in the world. And we're going to see many of the other platforms copy these features. But again, you can't copy the intention of a creator. Okay. Intention of the person who's starting this. And we're going to be on the cutting edge. So again, go to sidzsids co tagbango, set up a free account, get, get on a call with your teams and just ask them if you, if you're already a tag Mango user, just get on a call with their teams and ask them more about the linkup solution if you want to do that. Okay. The sixth innovation that I've brought into the digital coaching industry is for my diamond members. I've launched something called Next N E X T. The acronym for that is Nurtured Environment for Exponential Thinkers. So we are basically going to bring in a test batch of 50 to 60 students and I'm going to be working with kids of our diamond members in the age group of 12 to 18 where we're going to provide them a space where they can start to create, to accelerate. And we want to get them to start creating content, creating podcasts and really getting into this game much earlier on so that they, they have a group of friends and buddies and a lot of gamification elements that can make the whole experience for them amazing. So whatever I'm doing with the adults in terms of codexification and AI and using all these different tools and making people think and expanding their mind and horizon, I'm going to doing that for the young generation. And my wife Vanita is going to be spearheading this, supporting me on this project along with one of our other community managers will be supporting this. So we have started the application process in our diamond membership. Now, if you are not a Diamond member in my community, there's a again, you can go to sidzsids co diamond, attend our next diamond call and get to know more about how you can be a Diamond member and also get your children or your kid to be a part of the next project. And we are still in the test phase right now, so we are going to be launching, if you're listening to this podcast, sometime around the month of August 2024, we would have probably launched. So from April 2025 we'll be making this more a formal process. We'll be taking in more people later on. But the test group that I'm going to be working on is going to be for this first six months and that's the new Innovation is really bringing in the next generation also into this whole community process. Number seven, the seventh innovation that I actually launched in reboot in our digital coaching industry is a concept called Universe. See, I've worked with different kind of vendors for graphic design, for running my ads, for, you know, setting up my website, for setting up my landing pages, my funnels. And so I have a whole bunch of, you know, vendors that I worked with and there are some vendors who did a good job, some vendors who did not do well for me. So I had to go through a vetting process and now the vendors that I work with are top notch and world class. So for my diamond members, I basically set up a separate segment inside my tag Mango, my ecosystem called the Universe, where our diamond members can actually get services from vetted vendors and service providers for graphic design, for funnel building, for trademarks and copyrights, for travel, if they want tickets booking, if they want to run their own community events, if you want to run Facebook ads, Google Ads. So whatever need that you may have as a coach or a trainer, that entire set of service providers with negotiated rates are available inside our universe. So basically think of it as a marketplace for services with vetted vendors where the trust factor is really high and the quality of service is really high and even the price is very affordable compared to, you know, going and taking a shot in the dark outside the community. So this is something as an innovation I just launched in during the reboot and it's taken on the whole world by storm. Okay. The whole coaching industry is loving it. My down members are loving it and it's just getting warmed up right now. The eighth innovation is a movie project. I'm actually working on a movie project right now that I plan to launch in all the PVRs across India sometime in December. The title of the movie is called Game of Change where we're going to be talking about the spirit of Nalanda and how we want to bring that spirit of Nalanda into our country, to inspire every person in our country in India to become a teacher, to become a leader and to build communities just like how many others are doing it. And I've really brought in my mentors, Blair Singer and Suren, the founder of success Gyan, to be a part of this movie project. And that's what we also spoke about and in our reboot event. So again, a new innovation which I'm going to be seeing in the next two, three years is many trainers and coaches may also start getting their movies done and to go mainstream. And the whole Idea is to take it on ott. So hopefully if everything goes on track, we'll be on Netflix, it'll be on Amazon prime, we'll be on hotstar, we'll be on Jio Cinema and others to get this movie on all these different platforms. Which is the eighth innovation? The ninth innovation is the freedom versus retreat. So, as you know, I've been doing retreats every six months where I give awards and recognition for our members. We've already done four rounds of this at the point I'm recording this particular podcast, but we're going to be notching up the game next round where we'll be, you know, bringing in the concept of community clusters in whatever way inform in the next FBR and next fbr. The theme is going to be around the five elements. Let's keep it a surprise. So in case you have bought your tickets for fbr, awesome. If you're not bought your tickets, then I'm so sorry because you're already closed right now. At the point of me actually recording this podcast now, unless you're a Hall of Fame achiever or a one Pro champion, and if you want to be there, just make sure that you reach out to my team via email and they'll send you a private link where you can actually buy your ticket to receive an award on stage in the next FBR. And finally, number 10, the 10th innovation, which I've been delaying for some time, but I plan to be accelerating. This is a concept of city clubs. You know, there are many of our members and communities and many of the trainers and coaches who have communities all over India who have not yet turned on city clubs. And we also have been staggering city clubs because I wanted to get the system done properly before I launch it, because it's very easy for me to just send an email and, you know, do a meetup in some city. But I don't want to just go and do a meetup. I want to basically get everybody on board and I want to have a centralized system where it's managed properly and where I also plan to travel once in a quarter to some of the top cities in our country. And I'll also have a facilitator who will be driving this process, who will be traveling to cities and ensuring that the template is form is maintained, the customer experience is high, and also everybody meets in a common place, in a hotel or a cafe where they're able to get the value. So there's a lot of innovation happening in this space which at this point we have not officially rolled it out, but it's cooking right now and once it's out, it's going to be a lot of fun for our members to interact with other members in our community. So overall, Here are the 10 innovations that I've basically brought into the training coaching industry in the last few months. I'm really excited. And just to recap, we have the Codex Copilot Kits, Level Up Control Center Linkup Funnel, Bridging Next for the Next Generation Universe, which is basically a marketplace game of Change, a movie project. FBR is like innovative events where we're going to have thematic themes and we're going to do a lot of stuff which is which is going to be giving members a great experience and of course city clubs having small clubs to improve the bonding and connection between our members.
