How To Stop Self-Sabotaging!

How To Stop Self-Sabotaging!

Author: Shane Sams October 26, 2021 Duration: 45:47

Today's guest on the podcast is Flipped Lifestyle community member, Cindy Dunn! Cindy runs a membership site called The Foreign Language Library Online, which has now reached 10 members! The best part is that Cindy has gotten these members without running any ads!

Cindy started her website as a hobby site ten years ago, but it started to grow into something that she wanted to monetize. She started building her email list, and, amazingly, all 10 people on her list are currently members!

One of the things that has been holding Cindy back are technical issues. She has her membership on Wordpress, which requires lots of plugin upgrades and extra attention to make sure that everything works properly. In this episode, she and Shane Sams discuss whether she should stay on Wordpress or move her membership site to another platform. They also discuss some Facebook ad strategies and best practices.

How entrepreneurs can stop self-sabotaging

How to get past technical issues that hold your membership site back

Facebook ad strategies

It ain't gotta be perfect; it's just gotta be done!

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.
