Hey, hopefully you're all joining me from the other stream. That didn't do so well. So I didn't have any sound over there. Hopefully we do hear it. Looks like sound is working. Thank you guys so much for your patience. This is one of the reasons, full transparency, why I don't go live, because it gives me so much anxiety to go live because of all the tech. But I'm gonna be getting over my anxiety in 2026. I'm gonna actually go live more. I think I made this final decision that I'm going live once a week in 2026. So I'm gonna get over this anxiety, I'm gonna get over this tech kerfuffle. And so thank you all that are here with me. Who stuck with me, who bounced over here from the other live. What I was talking about when I realized there was no audio is that one of the things that comes up when you're thinking about joining, you know, a mastermind or a coaching program or even a course is that we don't get to know what's inside. We don't get to see what it's like on a day to day basis. We don't get a feeling of those programs before we invest a lot of money into it. And if you read my email earlier today, I mentioned how I'm getting a lot of emails in my inbox right now about masterminds and coaching programs and all of those things. I'm not sure if you guys have as well. And the sales pages are beautiful, the testimonials are great, the screenshots are amazing. But I want to know what it's like to be inside, like, what does it feel like to be inside of that program. And so what I thought would be fun today is for me to literally show you what it's like inside my YouTube coaching experience. I'm going to show you exactly what the curriculum looks like. I'm going to show you exactly what the feedback looks like that I give my clients and then I want to answer any questions that you have because we are going to be increasing the price of the coaching program in 2026 and we actually have the program available right now at 2025 pricing. And I really wanted to make it as accessible as possible here at the end of the year because one of the things that I feel is going to be a trend in 2026 is more human connection. Also, text based content isn't going to drive an audience. Community is going to be massive in 2026 and I think YouTube is going to be the best way to do that. Why do you think I just said I'm doubling down on YouTube? Not only am I going to be doing weekly pre recorded videos, I'm also going to be doing lives as well. And so I know Aaron, my client success coordinator, is watching right now. If you can just keep an eye on that other live stream and make sure people have the link to come here. Cause I don't think everybody transferred over here, which is sad because there's quite a few of you there and the tech glitch is always that. But I'm going to show you what it looks like and then I want to answer any questions that you guys have. Because I know at this time of the year, we're starting to think, what am I going to focus on in 2026? What am I going to put my time into? And like I said, I really feel it is going to be community building and you're going to need to show up. I'm realizing I'm going to be needing to do my hair and makeup probably twice a week instead of once a week. Because for businesses to grow in 2026, you're going to need to be a human. AI has just completely changed that. And the other thing that I think, and I just heard this on a podcast today, and it's not even a business podcast. I listened to Rhett and Link on Ear Biscuit and they were talking about they're ending their podcast because they took a look at the things that they were working on and they realized they need to do less things better. And I just did a video a couple weeks ago on my channel about how that's really my goal in 2026. Simplify. I talked about the power one one platform, one offer one marketing strategy. And so I honestly believe YouTube is the best platform that you can invest in for your business in 2026. Because if you want to see the biggest results, I'm not going to say for the least amount of time because guess what? YouTube still takes time. You still have to show up and create content. But YouTube is going to give you the biggest ROI. So let me go ahead and share with you what this program looks like. We've had over 250 people go through this program. This was our first full year of the program here in 2024. And I just absolutely love where we're at right now with this. So with setting up an app. So it makes it really easy to get into this anywhere. Whether you're on an iPad, whether you're on your iPhone. And so we're going to be setting up a app for you to see this. All right. And I'm assuming you all can see what I'm showing? Yes. Perfect. And so instantly when you get inside, you're going to see our module zero gives you everything that you need to know to get started. Started. All right. It walks you through everything that you need to know. I think I'm probably a little glitchy right now on the YouTube, so I apologize if I'm a little bit glitchy right now. But this is. This program is a combination of curriculum as well as one on one access. Can't hear. Again, anybody else having it? Just double checking if anyone else is having audio issues. Okay. So like I said, we are also moving a lot of our curriculum into audio base too, so that you can listen to it on a private podcast. So there's a lot of updates that we are adding to this program to make it super accessible for you. Because what I want you to be able to do is, is jump in and get started fast. Okay. I want you to get started fast. So I'm gonna go ahead and maybe just flip back and forth since it's buffering when it's sharing screens. But I do want to show you some of those things. So again, what I want you to do is get into this program and take action fast. I'm not throwing all of this information at you. I'm sharing the information you need to know to get your YouTube channel up and running and as quickly as possible. Okay, so some of those examples of what it looks like inside. Once you join the program, the first thing we want you to do, how to find the right content ideas. So you see, right here is where I talk about Vidiq and how to research the right topic ideas and how to figure out which topic ideas are what you need to focus on. So I am taking you through this entire process, through this curriculum. But again, as you are going through this curriculum, you're also getting access to me and Slack to ask me questions, to have me check your work. If you're confused or you're not sure which direction to go, you have me to do that. All right, so this is just an example of one of the pieces of content that one of the lessons. Another lesson that we walk you through is the video playlist funnel, the YouTube playlist funnel. And in this lesson, I give you examples so you're not having to figure it out on your own. So I'm going to go ahead and take the screen off so you guys can hear me. And I want you to get as many examples as possible because I want you to see how it can work for you. I know for me, I'm a visual learner. So if I can see how it's working for other niches, then I can help it work better for me. And one of the real powerful parts of joining this program for before the end of the year is I'm going through all of this curriculum next year live. So I'm going to be teaching this entire curriculum in a five day boot camp style training. So we're going to take five days in January to go through all of the curriculum live with me. So I will be teaching you each section of this program and then having an open Q and A at the end. And so if you know you want to get YouTube channel up and running within the first month of the year, this is the best way to do it. Because I don't teach this curriculum live at all during the year. This is the only time that I will do it. So you're going to also learn the playlist funnel, you're also going to get examples and you're also going to have me to talk you through what's the best playlist funnel for you? What should you focus on? Okay, so next I want to share with you some of my clients. So Alex specifically, obviously her screenshots not showing of her channel, but she realized that she could actually do this system that I taught her. And, and once she set it in place and she started doing it, she started to get consistent sales every single week from her YouTube channel and she was able to take off the entire summer. And she made $2,000 in July and August all from YouTube. So she was making money by not even needing to create those on YouTube because the videos that she created were strategic so that they could work evergreen for her. And all she had to do is put, I think at the time she had like two or three playlists up and those videos were working for so she could literally take off the summer. She didn't work. She actually traveled over the summer and was able to make money for her YouTube videos that were already posted. Because of the strategy that I teach another client of mine, she's actually taken off YouTube for this past year library of content that consistently drives her new email signups, new course sales. And you can see right here she says if you need any success stories, I think you can see clicks. New subscribers to her membership has increased so much thanks to the last two episodes. So when I help you build a YouTube strategy, I talk about what are the videos that we're selling on and what are the right calls to actions for those videos. And so not every single video are we telling people, Are we telling people, you go buy something, then there's a very specific strategy on what calls action that you're using in this playlist funnel. And again, I teach you that entire system inside the program. Plus I review your content too, to make sure it's set up exactly how it needs to be. From a strategist of over 10 years. Now, one of the best parts is, like I said, I want to speed up your process in this program. I want you to implement. I don't want you to just jump in here and hang around and not do anything. Right. I want you to implement. And so one of the things that I have of the. Which is probably my. The most popular thing in video game plan. So this is the template and how you need to plan YouTube videos. Because a lot of people plan YouTube videos incorrectly. There's a very strategic way that you're creating YouTube videos to get the best results. So not only do you get this template inside the program, you're also going to get the actual template, too. So you're getting the training, sorry, the training on the template and the template. But in addition to that, you're also getting access to review that template. I probably review 10 to 15 video game plans a week so that you always know what you're seeing on your YouTube videos is exactly what you should be saying. One of the biggest mistakes so many business owners make on YouTube is they take too long to get to the point in their videos. And so with the video game plan, we make sure your hook is tight and you send it to me to review so that we know your hook is tight. And then you can film your videos knowing it's prepared best for YouTube and audience retention. All right. That's probably one of the best things that we have in there that people come back to all the time and absolutely love. The other thing that I share in here, because I would get asked all the time. My goal is to keep filming simple. Listen, you guys aren't youtubers. You don't need a fancy setup, a fancy camera. You don't need all of this stuff going on. You just need a simple camera. And so one of the lessons inside that I walk you through is get to be a fly on the wall and see how I set up my equipment here. You see how I deliver my videos to the Camera. So basically you get to be a fly on the wall to see exactly how I do my YouTube videos in surprise. It's nothing fancy. And so you're going to see how simple filming can be so that you can get your videos scripted, you can get your videos filmed in no time. Because my goal in this program is an accelerator. I want you to get through this fast. I want you filming videos in my program within the first two months of joining my program. And so everything that I have in here is very intentional to help you get those results. All right, because the other thing you're probably thinking, yeah, this all sounds good, but what about editing? Trina, I'm covering you with editing too. Inside I have my workflow, so I don't edit videos anymore. But I used to edit client videos. I used to edit my own videos. And I have a training in here that shows you exactly how I would edit in under 30 minutes flat. Now this training is in Final Cut and also imovie. But the system that I use for editing can work in any editing platform because the way I teach you how to do it and what you should do first, what you should do second is the key. Right? And good news, you don't need super fancy editing to get results on YouTube. I have a video that I edited myself in under 20 minutes and that video has generated over $37,000 for me, super simple edits because for business owners, it's all about the content, the title and getting them to actually watch your videos. All right, so let's go ahead and jump to what one of my clients, Christine, she has a membership and she had a hard time constantly filling her membership and getting new people on her email list and exhausting her email built her playlist funnel. She said it may gave her this clear plan for how to lead viewers to her membership because every video she created on YouTube had a purpose and it never. She never felt more confident in her content strategy. I'm going to tell you, she builds her email list by hundreds of people every single month just from her YouTube videos. Her YouTube videos are growing her email. She's not having to spend ads for it. She's growing her list through YouTube. I also wanted to show you and then we're going to look at the one on one touch that you get with me. If you guys have questions, please, please feel free to drop it into the chat. I would love to answer your questions about the coaching experience because like I said, this is the last time that we are offering it at 2025 pricing and so you're really going to get it at the best value that you'll ever see. And so I don't want you to miss out. If you've been considering the coaching program, this is the best time to do it because you will not see this price come January 1st. So, thumbnails. Thumbnails are one of the most important parts of your video. And so many people come at thumbnails as an afterthought. And so in this program, I have 10 thumbnail templates for you that are created based on YouTube best practices. And I have my designer, MacKenzie, training you on how to best use these thumbnail templates. So you don't have to wonder, well, how do I edit these or what do I do for these? Not only do you get the templates, so get training on how to edit those again. These are all pieces that you need to get the best results on YouTube. I'm not throwing the kitchen sink at you here. I'm giving you the essential things, the minimal essential things you need to get results fast. I know you're busy. I know you got a lot going on. I want to give you the bare minimum of what you've got to do to get sales from YouTube, to get clients from YouTube. Right? How many of you want to sell something on YouTube? Let me know what you're trying to sell. Are you trying to sell a course? Are you trying to sell a vip? Are you trying to sell a service, a coaching program? Let me know in the chat what you are selling on YouTube, what you want to sell more of on YouTube. And I think the chat is working. So, okay, we've got somebody in the chat, so I know it's working. One on one services, fantastic. YouTube is great to sell one on one services. I have a video game plan mini course. Is that also included? It is included in there. But what you're getting in the YouTube coaching experience is I get to review your game plan. And what's really helpful is once you get those videos on YouTube, we're going to look at the audience retention and I'm going to break down the audience retention data to explain to you based on this information, what do we need to do in the next video game plan to make your audience retention better? Because YouTube is going to push those videos that get great audience retention. All right? So that's why it's so important. The video game plan is great to have, but having a strategist of over 10 years to look at it before you even film, and then once you have it published for me to look at it and say here's what you need to fix on the next video game plan is really invaluable. Now, a couple things that are brand new to the program that I am loving right now that we spent a lot of time on is the first thing. So by the end of the year we are going to have custom chat GPT prompts or custom GPTs, meaning these are built specifically for specific problems. So one of these GPTs is helping you define your ready to buy viewer. One of these GPTs is helping you come up with thumbnail ideas, title ideas, scripts, how to analyze your videos. These are all custom GPTs you're going to have access to to at the end of the year. This is again, I spent time in this to help you speed up your process so that you know exactly what's going to happen on your channel as quickly as possible. Again, I know my audience, I know you all are busy, y' all got stuff going on. So everything I put into here is no fluff, is to get you the results that you need as quick as possible. And because I'm not online all the time, because surprise, I've got a life, I did one more thing we added this year which people are loving in the program. I created an AI coach. Now this isn't a GPT. This is a specific AI that has been taught on hundreds of my coaching calls, all of my curriculum, and hundreds of one on one strategy calls that I've done. So this is actually and AI built on my framework on my knowledge. And people are loving this in the program because if you want an answer to something between like 4pm and 8pm the next day, you can use AI coach Trina and get your answer so you don't have to wait for me. You can say, Lisa, oh my God, I'm loving. AI Hope has been in the program for five years, said that she did a great job coming up with a playlist idea for her. You can also see Robin says, I must say your AI Trina has been great support in giving suggestions Chat GPT who wow Trina, when you're back, I hope you see this, that my Delphi clone, my AI bot is just as good as me. And so you're able to get consistent feedback from me even if I'm not there personally at the moment. So it doesn't matter if you're working on the weekends or not. I built an AI Trina that you can use at any given time and you're not getting the this in many Other courses. One of my friends, she built this and helped build this for me on, like I said, hundreds of hours of my thought process. So that's a really great way to get you moving and stay moving. Now, the last thing I want to show you and then I will answer any questions. Erin's going to go ahead and drop the link if you are interested in joining the coaching program because we will max out. This is a small program. There is only a hundred people in the program and we generally only take about 10 people a month. And we are at eight new clients this month so far. So I don't say that with scarcity. If you want to join, we will make it possible here at the end of the year since we are upping the price and we don't want to, you know, put anybody on hold. But I will say, like we do, we are very cautious of the amount of people we enroll because it is very high. Touch it is me. And I'm going to show you that as well. And the other thing is your time doesn't start in the program until January 5th. So you're going to get access to all of this, all of the curriculum, AI Trina, the chat GPTs. You're going to get access to all of it as soon as you join, if you would join today, if you join tomorrow. But your official start date won't even be till January 5th. So you don't have to worry about losing time over the over the holiday vacation. You can take your vacation. I know that when you come back on January 5th, you can jump right in because I want to share with you how high Touch this actually is. I'm not kicking you over to another person to do the job. I'm not even kicking you over to AI me. I'm in with you. So you can see this is our main Slack channel where we have a lot of different conversations going on. People are sharing some insights and some questions. We have multiple Slack channels so you can get help and copywriting, you can get help with Google Analytics. We have spreadsheets that we share monthly. But more importantly, this is the conversations that happen in the DMs. So you can see, for example, sue and I are going back and forth. She has planned five videos and I just need some more context. And you can see she sends that to me and then I send over her a detailed analysis of what I think her results of those videos will be. In this example, it was very educational mini course about sales funnels and that's not what works on YouTube. Right. We don't want to be getting educational content on YouTube. That's not what sells on YouTube. And so I go into detail with her, talking about how we need to shift a lot of this to belief, shifting content, urgency, creating playlists. And so her audience already knows that funnels matter, but she needed to shift this playlist specifically to what's not working and why is it not working? Because those are the people that are going to buy. They know they have a problem. They need to realize that your solution, they need to believe that your solution is what they need to buy before they do it. We don't need to show them how to build a funnel. Right? We don't need them to DIY it. We want them to buy our course, our coaching program, our one on one services. And so being able to see her plan before she even filmed the video, we were able to realign that playlist and make sure it did its job. Right. Here's another example. She just joined, sent me her ready to buy viewer plan. And I actually went into a little bit of detail on how we need to refine this. It wasn't clear enough for YouTube to be able to find these people. And so I gave her an example of what we could do to make this more specific so that YouTube could find those people. And you can see that she says right here, I knew my gut was right. And picking you as a coach because I go into detail on what you need to do to get the best results. And here's another example of Nikki. She I reference, I did an entire channel audit and I reference, hey, remember on the audit that I did, the things that we need to focus on. Your CTR improves dramatically when you do this. Your titles perform better when you do this. Because I had done an audit with Nikki and by looking at all of her content in the last three, I was able to pull out what are the things that are actually working for her. And let's focus on those things and create all your newer videos around the things that are working. Because I do a full channel audit too, once you publish your full playlist. So again, we're making sure you're spending time on things that actually will move the needle in your business. You're not just posting to post, right? You're posting the right videos to drive the right people that will drive sales. Okay. And I just wanted to show one more to show you like how in it I am with my clients. And so this is my client Liz things this week. And you can see on Monday, I sent her a voice memo to follow up on a question she had. She sent over a response. I gave her another voice memo and we went back and forth for two days. And she has. I actually have a message in my inbox right now waiting to be answered. And. And this is the type of support that you get in this program. Like I'm in the DMs with you going back and forth. I'm not sting you. You're not figuring out on your own. You're getting high touch. And that's why we keep this program small. It's under 100 people because I couldn't physically do all of that with more than 100 people. Now it was going to show you some of the videos of what my clients have said, but I think this buffers and so I will link to those videos. I can put those links in the chat for you to check out later of some of my clients interviews. This one Bell specifically, I'll put it in, in the chat. She. She was able in her first four videos to make $42,000. She was also able after she finished 16 videos, she was able to make $152,000 from YouTube. And now this is from clients and core sales. She has less than 100 and probably 200. Less than 200 subscribers. Those videos are getting less than 70 views. Because she's being strategic about the playlist funnel and the videos that she's choosing. I will also link to this other video that I have full of a panel of interviews and specifically Emily's results. She thought that YouTube would take a little bit because she's on Instagram and it takes a long time on Instagram to warm up your audience and get somebody to buy on Instagram. Within her second video following the system, I teach her and with my help with her titles and her playlists and her thumbnail, her second video, she had a person join her membership and instantly upgrade to her one on one program. That's why this system works for business owners. It's built specifically for business owners who are minimal on time, who want to do the exact thing they need to do to build a platform that generates sales. Because Instagram's just not doing that. Bell who I talked about, she quit Instagram. She was so tired of doing reels. So she doesn't even do Instagram. She had a family emergency recently and she took off of creating content for six weeks and she still made $15,000 while off taking care of her family. That's what YouTube can do when you have the right strategy. In place. And, And I say YouTube because TikTok can't do that, your podcast can't do that, your Instagram can't do that, your Facebook can't do that. When you have the right strategy on YouTube, it can do that for you. And I want you to, you know, do the right things so that you can start making more money in you in 2026. I've had the best year in my business this year and I went all in with YouTube and I quit Instagram completely. And so I know this can work. And I have client over client over client doing this. So again, if this is something that you know that you want to do in 2026 with me. Aaron dropped the link in there. Go to you see we have accounts down 13 more days. This is me down here. Send me a question, I will answer video to you. You can come down here. We have different payment options and so I wanted to point out that you can join for six months paying for $2,500. And there's also a payment plan available for six months. There is an option for you to pay in full at $4,000. Now I wanted to give you an option to basically get a deal, right? You're basically saving $1,000 when you join for 12 months. But it's for those of you that know you have the investment to make. We're getting at the end of the year here, right? Worth if you have expenses, if you have a lot of revenue that you've got to expense for taxes, maybe some of you need that space to get some revenue off the books. And so I have that available for you if you know you want to jump in for 12 months if you do want to do that. A couple of the bonuses that I have for you if you do 12 months is we're going to do a one on one onboarding call together. That's something that you don't get normally. I'm also going to build a custom implementation plan for you as well. And then I'm going to write your first four scripts inside the program if you decide to pay in full for 12 months. And all of that's on the sales page. When you go to the checkout page, you will see that that option is available too. There's one thing that I do want to point out specifically when you go to the contact page and then I want to answer any questions you guys have because I'm so excited for the clients that have joined this month. But when you come in here, let me actually you fill out Your information, right? And then you go to the next step. You're have to put your email in there. I just want to show you guys what the specific step because this is where a lot of people are like, I can't check out. So when you get to the second step, you can choose whatever payment option that you want. Right? But to be able to use other payment options like Venmo and PayPal and to be able to complete your order, you need to click that you agree to the terms and conditions and then all of this will be able to be clicked on. So we do have different ways that you can pay and then you do need to click on agree to terms and conditions to complete order. Okay, what questions do you guys have? Who's on the fence? Who's thinking about joining? Like I said, we've had about eight of you jump in in the last week. I was gonna call some of their names out here, but I want to answer any questions that you guys have. If you guys have a YouTube channel that you're not sure if this work for you, please share that. If you have an offer that you're not sure if YouTube will work for, drop it in here. We can kind of go back and forth to kind of show you what YouTube may look like for a selling strategy for you. What if we're testing out different offers? That's a great question. And so what I would say to you, Karen, is which offer is making you more money right now and has the best conversion rates? Because as we think about 2026 and as we think about what's going to work in 2026, really being known for an offer is going to be something everybody is going to try to do. Like the people, the higher level entrepreneurs that are making millions of dollars, they're really focused on being known for one offer. That way when your clients come to you or when people come to you, they know, oh, Karen Connor, music is known for this program right here. That's what I want, that's what I know to go for. And so I think it's fine to do a different offer. It's just going to be the same audience. So for example, my audience is course creators, coaches and service providers who have an offer to sell that they want to sell more of. And let's say I had an offer on like Asana or productivity, right? I use a lot of Asana and that just wouldn't fit because it's a different type of audience. Because I am bringing an audience that has different pain points. They are struggling to make the sales that they want. They are doing what they used to do to make sales, and it's not working. They're looking for that solution, and having a organized asana or set up a sauna board isn't going to help them do that. And so I want to make sure I'm driving the people who have that offer, who are doing the things that they were doing before that used to work, that aren't working now, and they want a solution. Those are the types of people that I want to come to my YouTube channel because those are the people. Right. For my YouTube coaching experience. And so I would say if that offer, maybe if it's different on the buyer journey. So let's say if I had like a beginner's course potentially that feeds into the YouTube coaching experience, maybe I could. I could do that. But I'm also not trying to attract beginners to my channel because I want people here, like I said, who have an offer, who are a business owner. I'm not teaching YouTubers to be YouTubers here. I'm teaching business owners how to sell on YouTube. So does that kind of get to your. Your answer to your question, Karen, when we talk about that, I wanted to. We had Jen join us last night. We also had. I'm looking at my list here of all of our new people that jumped in. Where's that other. I know I can probably pull it up. It have been easier if I did this, but I wanted to give some time. If you guys have any questions, if you wanted me to, you know, share. Do I think your offer would work? Do. Do I think that your channel would work? Yes, as long as it's the same audience that has the same problems. Because the goal in the playlist funnel is to build a channel full of people that have the same problem. Because your offer should solve that problem, right? Your offer is the solution to the problem that they're having. So you need to drive all the people that are having the same problems to your channel so that they will buy your offer. Because that's the solution. Right? So, yes, Jen, I wanted to welcome Jen. I wanted to also welcome Brandy. Also Julia. And one more person that came in was Megan. So, Julia. Yes, I know. I just said your name. I said welcome, Julia. She joined us earlier this week and she's already jumped in. Julia, if you want to share what it's like inside, share in the chat, you know, your experience of jumping in, that would be great. So from somebody who just joined, you can see what's going on inside. We just had our group call yesterday. All of the recordings for the group calls are recorded. They're also timestamped. And we are working on getting them into a private podcast feed so that whether you're there or not, you can send questions in and then you can listen to them on the go. I know personally and one of the masterminds that I'm in, if I can't make the call, I listen to the call on through the private podcast because I get so much inspiration and ideas just by listening to the calls. So that I wasn't even there for. And so that's something that is on our list to elevate the experience inside the YouTube coaching experience next year, we're putting it on an app. That may be news to Erin. We're putting it on an app. We are also going to get this private podcast out for the new lessons because I'm teaching it live in January, which I don't do. I don't teach this live typically. And we're going to be getting a private podcast feed also for, for the coaching call so you can listen to those on the go whether you can make them their live or not. I'm loving it. I've been balancing being sick and the holidays. Haven't got much time. Yeah, but the great thing about this, Julia, is you're not wasting any time because your start date doesn't start even till January 5th. So you're already jumping in with free time as it is. So that's the good news is that, yeah, I'm probably going to be sick giving it's the holidays and this is the last day of school for the kids. But yeah, you're not losing any time because when you join us in December, we don't even start your time in the program till January 5th. So you've got time to jump in, listen to the curriculum, play with AI coach Trina, ask her questions, play with the custom GPTs. And so that when January 2nd, or sorry, the 5th happens, I'm going to jump in and I'm going to assume I'm going to have, you know, 50 audits to do. So I'm going to be blocking all of my Monday, January 5th, to just replying to them of all, all of you guys. And I love that. I know you're making progress. I know you're working on things and that's exactly what I want you guys to do because if you do the work, I promise the results will come. Lots of training videos. I'm most excited about the personal help and eyeballs on my work and not waste time figuring out. Yeah. And so that's something that we do. We don't try to say, say, you know, the Oprah style and you get a car, and you get a car, and you get a car. We want you to have the curriculum in the training that you need to get results on YouTube. We don't want you on side quests. We don't want to throw in everything but the kitchen sink. We want you to have the least amount of training to get the most amount of results. So we're really working on in the new version in 2026 to even bring it down to even less training videos. So like any kind of fluff, we are trimming the fat. I'm trying to trim the fat as much as to get to the nitty gritty of the minimal things that you need to start getting your YouTube channel up and making new sales for you. That's really what I'm focused on for 2026, is helping you get those results in the quickest amount of time possible. I'm not trying to throw you 75 different side projects to do. If you're going to work with me, we're going to work on getting your YouTube funnel up and running and making you sales. Does that mean I may need to review your sales page for your offer? 100% and I'm open to that. We have a copywriter inside of there, Brittany, who will review your copy for you. We also have a Google Analytics expert inside making sure we're tracking that you're getting traffic from YouTube. That's going to be really important as well. So when I say we talk YouTube, we're also talking about how do we take that viewer from YouTube and make sure it converts in your funnel. We gotta look at the sales pages, we gotta look at the Google Analytics, we gotta look at the email open rates too. So we're looking at the full picture here. YouTube is very important to generate that traffic, but we need to be looking at the full picture in your business. And that's what I do. The majority of it is YouTube strategy. I've been business for 10 years. I have a master's degree in business. I'm making sure that if we capture those views that they are going to convert. So you're getting the best of both worlds when it comes to YouTube strategy and business strategy. Any other questions, comments, concerns, ideas? Like I said, I'm hoping to do more of these lives in the new year. Maybe weekly. We'll see. Gotta Figure out tech. I gotta figure out glitch. Maybe my computer is just not happy enough to do live streaming and sharing my screen. So I don't know if that means I gotta upgrade that. I'm just not a tech person, you guys. I hate tech. I just. My husband got a new TV and it doesn't work the same way as the other one. Like, the remote doesn't work, and I get so angry at it. And he's like, oh, no, you're turning into your parents when tech changes. And you get angry at him. Like, well, I just want the remote to work the way it worked before because that's how I liked it. And now you got to change it, and now the remote doesn't work that way, and I don't like it. So it's always hard for me to make adjustments in the tech world because I like to keep things simple. I like to keep things minimal. And that's a. That's a strength that I have that I bring to my program, is how can we get your program. I mean, how can we get your videos up and running with minimal tech, with minimal, you know, flashiness, but still working? All right, if there are no other questions, you guys, this is the last thing that I had on my to do list for 2025. I've got my clients to review here. I've got some audits. I think I've got 10 audits to look at here. By the end of the day, we kick off our winter vacation, our holiday vacation. It's the last day of school for the kids. And that is. That is a wrap for 2025. I can't believe this is happening already. I have thought in the. In the idea of live streaming. Now, I'm going on a side quest, but I have a few of you here, so maybe you'd be interested. I'm considering maybe going live next week, actually. What is next week? Maybe not next week. Maybe like the 29th or the 30th. And talking about trends that I think are going to happen in 2026, I have really three to four big trends that I think are going to happen in 2026. And I considered maybe going live that week between Christmas and New Year's and talking about that if that's something you guys would want to show up for. I don't know what everybody's schedule looks like between Christmas and New Year's. I know, like, my neighbors, they still work their normal work schedule, and so they're not even home. They're at work. I know my husband has off from tomorrow till the end of the year. I know for me it's very flexible. I know I will probably have had plenty of time with my children that I may want to run off and do a live stream. So if hearing what I think is going to trend in 2026 and that what I think is going to work in 2026 and doing on a live stream answering your questions between Christmas and New Year's, let me know if you would actually show up for that. Because I don't want to show up here talking to nobody. I mean, it's okay to talk to nobody. But also it's fun to have conversations. Like when Karen shared her question about having two different offers and when you all share about, you know, your different offers and they can get a perspective of who you are and what you're working on, it's just more fun to go live like that and have that conversation. So if you'd be interested in showing up between on a live between Christmas and New Year's, give me a yes in the chat. I may do a poll later as well on my YouTube channel just to see what the vibe is for that. Otherwise, I hope you guys have had a great 2025. I hope those of you that are here that are thinking about joining the coaching experience and working with me, I hope you do. Feel free to send me questions on anything that is popping up. Any questions that you have. It is me in my inbox answering your questions. So feel free to send me those questions on over because like I said, 2026, brand new pricing, it's almost doubling in price just because of the new things that we're adding, reshooting the entire content, building the new things inside the program that is just going to help you speed up your results. So thank you guys so much. If you were here all week, I appreciate it. It's been a long time since I've gone live, done three lives this week. We only had an issue with today. So I consider that a win. Happy holidays everybody and I hope I see you next year.
