FL 181 – We help Jeff refocus his sales funnel to create a consistent and sustainable online income

Cheers to another month full of new content and insight! Our Flip Your Life guest member this week is Clinical Psychologist, Human Leader and Keynote Speaker, Dr. Jeff Van Meter. Jeff started his career as an engineer with about 4 years of field experience before going back to school to pursue clinical psychology. His career shift led him to the Chicago suburbs where he eventually settled down and had a family. Dr. Van Meter has had reasonable success in his 25 years of clinical practice and as an entrepreneur. One of his unfair advantages is his innate penchant for public speaking which has allowed him to go on several leadership oriented speaking engagements. With 3 children almost ready for college, Jeff's entrepreneurial spirit kicked in. He started looking  for other potential streams of income that's not tied to government and insurance regulations since this has had a negative impact on his paycheck. To start his online business, he needed something that won't burn him out, but still gave him the opportunity to change the lives of as many people as possible -- something that would take his family's life to the next level. He created several websites, attended several masterminds, followed a lot of advice from other well-meaning mentors, but this just blurred his focus and now his brand is suffering online identity crisis. Join us as we help Jeff consolidate his websites, highlight his strengths as a seasoned keynote speaker, and get his sales funnel back in shape. It's time to transform ideas into action, and you know, we're always here to help you find better ways to take action.

Success Story of the Week: Today's story comes from a brand new member of the Flip Your Life community.  Her name is Shelly, and the subject in her post in the Success Forums says, "I finished my course guidebook!!!"  She's super excited about this one.   Shelly says, "I just finished my guidebook for my course, which is a huge accomplishment for me. I also finished creating the PowerPoint presentation for my videos, which I'll be recording next week. I can't tell you how wonderful it feels to have the content of the course completed.  Thank you, S & J, for all your encouragement, motivating podcast, and helpful tools.  2018 is going to be phenomenal!" I love this post, because Shelly just joined our community and was an action taker from day one; talking in other threads, replying to people's topics, posting action plans, posting her success stories, and this success story is amazing, because you know we always celebrate getting new customers, making more money, getting closer to replacing our incomes, quitting our jobs and changing our lives, but it's those little things you do along the way that you've got to celebrate if you're ever going to make it to your end goal.

Hosted by Shane Sams, the Flipped Lifestyle™ Podcast is a conversation about building a business that actually fits around your life, rather than the other way around. It’s born from the real-world experience of Shane and his wife Jocelyn, a family who created a million-dollar income entirely online. They focus on the practical mechanics of selling digital products and running membership sites-essentially, creating valuable information and community that people are willing to pay for. This isn't abstract theory; each episode digs into the systems, mindsets, and sometimes surprising tactics that worked for them as they built a location-independent career. You’ll hear candid discussions on the challenges of shifting from a traditional job to a self-directed online venture, managing family dynamics alongside business growth, and the ongoing work of sustaining success. The aim is to provide actionable insights for anyone feeling stuck in a conventional routine and dreaming of a "flipped" reality where work supports life on their own terms. Tune in for a straightforward, often humorous look at the entrepreneurial journey from a couple who is still actively living it, sharing their lessons so you can chart your own course.
