b'Digital Course Fails From a So-Called Professional (*facepalm*)\\nAaaah, bloopers.\\nI love a good blooper in any form -- from America\\u2019s Funniest Home Videos to a Kristin Wigg outtake to a \\u201cfails\\u201d reel on Instagram.\\xa0\\nBut today the tables turn and it\\u2019s yours truly who\\u2019s in the hot seat.\\n*GULP*\\nI\\u2019ve experienced more blunders than I can count in my 13 years of online business and I\\u2019m sharing the best (or maybe worst) of them in this episode.\\nFrom blacking out\\u2026\\xa0\\nto being blacklisted from Zoom\\u2026\\xa0\\nto getting a liiiiittle tipsy on Live video\\u2026\\xa0\\nto welcoming students who hadn\\u2019t signed up for my course\\u2026\\xa0\\nto drenching my team with tequila while live on camera\\u2026\\xa0\\nI\\u2019ve had enough bloopers to last me a lifetime.\\nSo I want to dedicate this episode to all of you who think that, if you\\u2019re going to create and launch a digital course, it all has to go as planned.\\xa0\\nBecause these bloopers span from my early digital course days all the way to this year -- yep, 2021 where I, the expert, should have my you-know-what sorted out.\\nNo matter how prepared, professional, or experienced you are -- life\\u2019s just a little messy.\\xa0\\nI\\u2019ve learned instead that it\\u2019s our job as entrepreneurs to try new things and get out of our comfort zones. And yes, every now and then, that means things backfire.\\nBut in the grand scheme of things, we\\u2019re the luckiest.\\nWe get to try -- and in the meantime, we gather stories, memories, and a lot of lessons learned.\\xa0\\nAnd at the end of the day, we\\u2019re still standing and our businesses are still okay\\u2026even if it isn\\u2019t always perfect.\\xa0\\nDespite these bloopers (and some of them are seriously cringe-worthy), I\\u2019ve still been able to build a massively successful business.\\nAnd you can do the same, my friend.\\nAlso, I want to invite you to my brand new, FREE Masterclass 5 Little-Known Mistakes\\xa0*Most * Course Creators Make and What to Do Instead.

They had a tech glitch, and our 15 minute before the webinar email had gone out. Emails were flooding in from 1000 of subscribers, and I blacked out. But guess what, we were only five minutes late. Always have a backup plan!\\n\\n\\n[13:56] The reminder email goes out, and it\'s 15 minutes before we go live. Attendees started receiving a buyer email that said here are your login details.
