Have you ever looked at your biz and thought the only way you’ll ever grow is if you start hiring?If so, you aren’t the only one. What you may be surprised to hear is that part of why you’re thinking like this is because in the world of online biz celebs, we’re told hiring is THE way to do it. We’re told we can’t possibly expand and thrive without a whole team of people to help us chase the dream of scaling. But is all this advice o...

Chasing Celebrity Enterpreneurship
Have you ever heard some celeb entrepreneur say that you need to build a big audience to have online business success? While that advice doesn’t necessarily sounds terrible… it kind of is. Because once again, we’re being encouraged to chase a carrot (the huge audience) that won’t necessarily give us what we want (a sustainable business). And let’s not forget that nobody mentions that high cost associated with doing it “their” way. But like everything else that we talk about on Duped, chasing the celebrity entrepreneur status is not all that...

Predatory Pricing Practices in the Online Business Pyramid Scheme
If there’s one area in online business that is rife with bad advice, it’s pricing. We’re told we need to charge what we’re worth. That we need to “play big”. That we just need to raise our prices.As though it’s a quick push of the button and everything comes together. What that line of thinking ignores is that the world of online business has been set up to take something complex and highly nuanced — pricing —and boil it down into quick, bite-sized solutions. Solutions that rarely work for the...

Questioning Online Business Practices
While the words “best practices” are heard again and again in online business, do you ever take time to actually think about what they mean?Some of the best practices we’re being sold in the online space have been so normalized that they’re now business as usual — Which would be fine if they weren’t so damn SHADY. And that’s why now is the time to start asking questions. In this episode of Duped, we’re digging in to see how some of these “best” practices are actually serving us. Fi...

Why Your Message Really Matters Now More Than Ever with Michelle Mazur
There’s no shortage of messaging being thrown at us in the world of online business. We’re told to live our best life. To take back our freedom. To avoid burnout. And on and on and on… The problem? These messages, while they may be things we actually need to hear, are these the messages we want trickling down to our own clients? And if we’re all using the same messaging, where’s the room for differentiation? In this episode, Dr. Michelle Mazur joins us to unpack exactly why your message...

Hands up if you’ve ever been swept up in the moment and made a purchase, but then later wondered what the heck you were thinking. Been there, done that… and got the crappy product or service we didn’t actually need. But why does this happen? Why do we get all excited and seemingly throw our critical thinking skills out the window?Well, friends, it’s because this is what the online business world WANTS us to do.They want us to forget to take a beat before we buy.

The Scam of Sales Psychology
Stop us if you’ve heard these ones before — “You just need this one trick to get people to buy from you.” ”Use the power of language to make your copy impossible to resist.” “Create raving fans who buy from you on autopilot.” These are just a few of the claims you see on the internet designed to get you buying whatever someone else is selling. Now, selling isn’t inherently bad. It’s the tactics used when selling that separate those with integrity from those willing to exploit sales psycho...

That promise of freedom can be incredibly seductive, so it’s no wonder budding entrepreneurs run towards this idea. But there’s a dark side to the promise of freedom where freedom comes at a high cost. That’s exactly what we are diving into this episode of Duped.

A specific level of service? A high return on investment?
