1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.880
screen real quick. Yep. Thank you. So basically I am working on, so one of the funnel is already

2
00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:17.440
live. There's a second one that I'm working on where the form is in Rainflow. It's sorry,

3
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:23.600
actually this one is hiding behind the Zoom link. I have to scroll it down. This is a different one.

4
00:00:23.840 --> 00:00:31.360
Yeah, I can see it now. So this one is Megan. I was trying to create the same,

5
00:00:31.360 --> 00:00:38.720
duplicate the same funnel, but then I'm directly connecting my website to it rather than the form

6
00:00:38.720 --> 00:00:46.400
within on Facebook. So the form is in Rainflow, but then I'm getting this error where it's asking me

7
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:58.000
to attach the, what was it called? Tracking or pixels, something about pixels. I was getting

8
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:03.280
an error that pixels need to be connected or something like that. And I was not able to

9
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:10.160
deploy or get my funnel live. So I was trying to figure out what does that mean and how can I,

10
00:01:10.160 --> 00:01:16.800
so this one is the active, which is already in like live. This has the form in Facebook

11
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:25.200
and then I duplicated the same one. And then that one, I now, now the form is not in Facebook,

12
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:32.880
but it's my two step funnel. So form is in Rainflow. So can I just open it? Edit it. Let

13
00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:39.280
me just open it and show you. So is it like the same campaign type or is it a different campaign?

14
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:47.040
It is the same campaign type, but instead of the, instead of the form, like for example here,

15
00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:57.200
it just asked me, where was it? I can find it. Like it asks you, you want to add a form or a

16
00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:04.480
website instead of the form I selected website option. So I'm not, I'm not manually creating

17
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:12.880
the form within here. So for example, destination, right? So for destination, I chose website.

18
00:02:12.880 --> 00:02:23.680
So this is my, like the complete funnel. And, and then I added this. So I just want this to,

19
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:29.920
I wanted to make it live. And also my other question was, if I want to change my creatives on

20
00:02:29.920 --> 00:02:35.360
this one, which I have duplicated, how do I change it? Because I have another picture,

21
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:40.080
other creative, I want to test it out. So I was thinking maybe on my second,

22
00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:46.560
like this ad, I can use a different creative just to test it out simultaneously, like two creatives.

23
00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:53.120
Yeah. Okay. Yeah. You can definitely do that. Okay. So the problem you're having is you need

24
00:02:53.120 --> 00:03:00.480
to set up a pixel before this. Yes. Yes. It's asking me to set up some pics. It was somewhere.

25
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:07.680
I'm still learning this one. I mean, it was, I saw it somewhere, but I do not remember on top

26
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:16.000
of my mind. It's right here. Data set. It's asking me to set a data set and create it. And this one

27
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:24.320
is mandatory because it doesn't let me publish it or, you know, until this is set up. So I was

28
00:03:24.320 --> 00:03:29.680
not sure how to set this up. Yeah. Basically what a pixel does, it looks like they're calling it

29
00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:39.040
data set now. It's kind of like a tracker that you put on. I don't exactly know how it works,

30
00:03:39.040 --> 00:03:43.360
but it follows the person so that when they leave Facebook and go to your funnel,

31
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:51.920
Facebook can track what actions they take, which will then allow Facebook to give you accurate data.

32
00:03:52.480 --> 00:03:57.760
This many people ended up on the landing page. This many people like fill out the form. This

33
00:03:57.760 --> 00:04:02.320
many people made it to the second step. So you like set that up so that Facebook can provide

34
00:04:02.320 --> 00:04:07.280
that data without that. Facebook doesn't know what the person does. This is a pretty advanced

35
00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:18.720
advertising question, honestly, which is a better Wednesday call. This is a common thing that's

36
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:24.640
needed. And so Steven made a video for this once I put it in the rainflow course. It's under the

37
00:04:24.640 --> 00:04:30.320
advanced section, but I'll drop the direct link to it here in the chat. It's like a 17 minute

38
00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:36.480
walkthrough of like how to install a pixel for your rainflow funnel. I would try that first.

39
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:42.000
I want to say he recorded this last year. It could be that things look different and have changed. So

40
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:46.640
kind of try to go through that on your own today. And then I'd say come back tomorrow and see if you

41
00:04:47.520 --> 00:04:53.360
has any insight if you're not able to do it on your own. I did do this successfully once,

42
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:57.600
but it was a while ago and I'm not super confident about walking someone through it.

43
00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.840
So I would follow this video first.

44
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.200
See if you can get it set up.

45
00:05:02.200 --> 00:05:03.040
That's good.

46
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:06.760
And for the graphics, should I talk to Ecolite tomorrow then

47
00:05:06.760 --> 00:05:08.400
how to even look at the graphics?

48
00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:09.240
I can talk to him, that's fine.

49
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:12.040
Yeah, and basically all you're gonna do here is like,

50
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:15.800
you can have two different or multiple different creatives

51
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:17.960
within the same ad set.

52
00:05:17.960 --> 00:05:19.440
So you see how it's like three different,

53
00:05:19.440 --> 00:05:22.880
it's like campaign, ad set and then ad, like a creative.

54
00:05:22.880 --> 00:05:25.760
You can have like 10 different creatives

55
00:05:25.760 --> 00:05:27.120
underneath that ad set.

56
00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:29.320
So they can all be running under the same ad set

57
00:05:29.320 --> 00:05:31.760
and then you can compare and see which one performs better.

58
00:05:31.760 --> 00:05:35.200
But as far as like what you actually want in the creative,

59
00:05:35.200 --> 00:05:38.880
yeah, Ecolite is great with like marketing angles and stuff.

60
00:05:38.880 --> 00:05:40.960
So I would maybe brainstorm with him

61
00:05:40.960 --> 00:05:43.120
of like what types of creatives to try.

62
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.400
But if you just like, one time I had like six different,

63
00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:48.640
I just had AI make me a bunch of different photos

64
00:05:48.640 --> 00:05:52.360
and I put them all in a different like ad creative

65
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:54.080
and I let them run for like a week or two

66
00:05:54.080 --> 00:05:57.200
and I picked a winner, like which one performed the best.

67
00:05:57.200 --> 00:05:58.720
So you could just do that too.

68
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.240
Data will tell you which one's performing the best.

69
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:06.720
I'll just dial back in then tomorrow

70
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:07.760
and pick it up from there.

71
00:06:07.760 --> 00:06:09.520
And you said it's the advanced section,

72
00:06:09.520 --> 00:06:11.320
you said from our phase.

73
00:06:11.320 --> 00:06:12.160
Is it the-

74
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:17.040
Yes, it's in the Rainflow course under advanced content,

75
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:19.000
but I did drop the link in the chat

76
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:20.440
if you wanna just use that.

77
00:06:20.440 --> 00:06:21.320
I'll just grab that.

78
00:06:21.320 --> 00:06:22.160
All right.

79
00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:23.000
Thanks, Megan.

80
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:24.040
Yeah, no problem.

81
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:27.440
Okie dokie.

82
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:29.720
Let's see, who's next here?

83
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:30.560
Carrie.

84
00:06:32.640 --> 00:06:35.400
So I'm asking for Sean and he's not here

85
00:06:35.400 --> 00:06:36.840
so I can't share screen,

86
00:06:36.840 --> 00:06:40.360
but maybe you can just like give us tips or tricks.

87
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:43.800
We are trying to do our email campaign.

88
00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:47.720
We have it all set up and for some reason in Shopify,

89
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:52.080
it is not letting us tag our segment

90
00:06:52.080 --> 00:06:55.560
so it won't let us launch the campaign.

91
00:06:56.440 --> 00:06:57.880
And we can't figure out why.

92
00:06:57.880 --> 00:07:00.560
Like we've been trying to launch for two days now.

93
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:02.960
We have everything written out, everything sent,

94
00:07:02.960 --> 00:07:07.000
all the emails in, each one is personalized per person.

95
00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:08.200
And for whatever reason,

96
00:07:08.200 --> 00:07:11.000
Shopify won't let us tag the segment

97
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:13.600
so it won't let us launch.

98
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:15.840
Okay, what?

99
00:07:15.840 --> 00:07:18.400
You're using Shopify to send the emails?

100
00:07:18.400 --> 00:07:20.000
We're using Shopify.

101
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:22.840
So I think Sean got Sequoia.

102
00:07:22.840 --> 00:07:27.280
So that was what like the chat has been suggesting.

103
00:07:27.280 --> 00:07:30.400
They did not suggest us doing Rainflow.

104
00:07:30.400 --> 00:07:33.640
So we are doing everything in Shopify.

105
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:35.880
Okay.

106
00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:39.360
And where are your contacts?

107
00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:40.560
Where's your email list?

108
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:41.960
Everything is in Shopify.

109
00:07:41.960 --> 00:07:43.320
It was in Rainflow,

110
00:07:43.320 --> 00:07:46.480
but we integrated everything into Shopify.

111
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:47.320
Okay.

112
00:07:49.080 --> 00:07:52.160
I have no experience with anything on Shopify

113
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:54.480
as far as email campaigns go.

114
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:57.320
I would honestly just have to look at it and poke around.

115
00:07:58.960 --> 00:08:00.280
Yeah, I don't know.

116
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:04.360
I wonder why, I mean,

117
00:08:06.960 --> 00:08:07.880
trying to think.

118
00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:11.360
If you've already got everything set up in Shopify,

119
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:12.640
I'd probably just keep going with it,

120
00:08:12.640 --> 00:08:15.320
but you can integrate Shopify with Rainflow.

121
00:08:15.320 --> 00:08:16.920
That's like how I would use it

122
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:20.600
is I'd use Shopify as like, you know, the checkout place

123
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:22.280
that I would do all my email marketing

124
00:08:22.280 --> 00:08:24.000
and CRM and Rainflow.

125
00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:27.120
With Shopify, you're gonna have to start getting add-ons

126
00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:28.280
and stuff, right?

127
00:08:28.280 --> 00:08:30.600
Like you have to add different apps and stuff

128
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:32.280
because Shopify is meant to be a store

129
00:08:32.280 --> 00:08:34.520
and then they have all these apps that you add

130
00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:39.080
and things.

131
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:40.679
But if you've already got it all set up,

132
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:42.159
I'd probably try to keep going with it.

133
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:44.520
I just don't have any experience with it.

134
00:08:44.520 --> 00:08:48.480
So if he wants to come back sometime on a call

135
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:50.080
and we can like look at it,

136
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:53.280
but I don't know off the top of my head

137
00:08:53.280 --> 00:08:54.720
like where exactly to look.

138
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:56.640
It's probably just, you know, it's a different platform.

139
00:08:56.640 --> 00:08:58.720
So there's probably something hidden somewhere.

140
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:01.920
You just gotta like find that setting.

141
00:09:01.920 --> 00:09:04.280
So maybe have him come back where he can like share screen

142
00:09:04.280 --> 00:09:05.240
and we can look through it.

143
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:06.600
And it could be, you know, tomorrow,

144
00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:08.440
you guys could help him too.

145
00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:09.720
It doesn't have to be next week.

146
00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.000
So, or Thursday with Steven, whatever works.

147
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:14.480
Okay, thank you.

148
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:15.680
Yeah, no problem.

149
00:09:16.680 --> 00:09:19.600
Okay, Melissa, I see your hand up.

150
00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:20.760
Hello.

151
00:09:20.760 --> 00:09:21.720
Hello.

152
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:22.560
Okay.

153
00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:27.680
So I last week talked to you, Clyde.

154
00:09:27.680 --> 00:09:30.640
And so he's been like trying to move me along,

155
00:09:30.640 --> 00:09:32.600
trying to figure this out.

156
00:09:32.600 --> 00:09:35.920
So I have a new ad running on Facebook.

157
00:09:37.680 --> 00:09:40.320
I use the ultimate ad optimizer,

158
00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:43.080
whatever it was in the AI that helped a lot.

159
00:09:43.160 --> 00:09:48.160
And so I've got, I'm basically, I've got this website

160
00:09:48.160 --> 00:09:53.160
and the business idea is to create simple websites

161
00:09:53.400 --> 00:09:56.520
for service businesses, you know,

162
00:09:56.520 --> 00:09:59.720
the one man show kind of a thing, you know, where.

163
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:05.600
that's the niche, that's the target. From everything I can tell, like having run through

164
00:10:06.160 --> 00:10:11.520
the ultimate ad chat, going back and forth, showing that everything is set up, everything's

165
00:10:11.520 --> 00:10:15.760
working. I mean, I'm just going to, let's just, just try, like, that's what it's saying. I'm

166
00:10:15.760 --> 00:10:23.520
getting landing page views, but just nobody yet, like no leads, no somebody, like filling it out.

167
00:10:23.520 --> 00:10:29.280
This time the ad is for a free sample website, you know, and it's like, click here, fill this out,

168
00:10:29.280 --> 00:10:34.400
get a free sample website. And I think, like, honestly, I think the big part of it is that

169
00:10:34.400 --> 00:10:38.480
there's a ton of people doing this. Like, there's a lot of people out there doing what I'm doing,

170
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:44.400
like, hey, get out. So I guess my question now is, I'm coming up with, thinking about, like,

171
00:10:44.400 --> 00:10:49.680
all the things I've learned now, being a mastermind, the Instagram, right now, I'm just

172
00:10:49.680 --> 00:10:55.120
running the ad on Facebook. And so it's just, I started just running this one ad, and I'm just

173
00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:59.520
trying to think about, like, when it comes to the brand building, and it comes to the Instagram

174
00:10:59.520 --> 00:11:07.520
creating community, that do you think, like, it would make sense to try, you know, because I

175
00:11:07.520 --> 00:11:15.600
thought, should I try to start an Instagram, and start, or just stay on Facebook, and, but, like,

176
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:22.080
offer things, like, I guess I'm saying what else to offer, like, something offer for free, or,

177
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:27.360
like, I just learned how to make loom videos. I can make a loom video on, like, how to set up

178
00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:31.440
your domain. Like, that's something people don't ever know how to do. And, like, if they're going

179
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:35.760
to need a website, they're going to have to buy a domain. So I'm, like, I could, like, create some

180
00:11:35.760 --> 00:11:40.560
quick little videos, and be, like, here, and, you know, because then I'm thinking, well, Instagram,

181
00:11:40.560 --> 00:11:45.840
I could start an Instagram, and, like, start offering, like, hey, click this, and get a free

182
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:49.680
video on how to set up, you know, like, I'm just trying to think about,

183
00:11:50.560 --> 00:11:56.000
what other smaller free things can I offer to start getting people to, like,

184
00:11:57.120 --> 00:12:02.480
respond, or engage in any way, so that, because I still think even signing up for a free sample

185
00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:07.600
website is still too much. Like, I don't even know if I need a website, and my husband is,

186
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:12.640
he is a service business, like, it's this niche thing, and he has so much business, he doesn't,

187
00:12:12.640 --> 00:12:16.400
he doesn't have a website, and he doesn't need it. He's got more business than he needs,

188
00:12:16.400 --> 00:12:22.560
and I think sometimes that's the case, that people don't think they need a website. So I'm having to,

189
00:12:22.560 --> 00:12:30.080
like, I want to figure out how to push past that. Okay. I mean, two things come to mind.

190
00:12:30.800 --> 00:12:36.720
The first thing, and I, I mean, this might be more the issue, honestly,

191
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:41.760
especially if you're not having anyone, like, sign up for it, like, even the freebie,

192
00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:50.400
that kind of tells me that people don't think this is for them. Like, when you feel, when you,

193
00:12:50.400 --> 00:12:58.320
like, come across an ad that is, like, the algorithm has targeted you so well, that it's,

194
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:04.480
like, oh my gosh, this is neat. Like, it totally has been stalking me, and what I'm watching on

195
00:13:04.480 --> 00:13:09.840
Netflix, and looking at my Google searches, and put this ad in front of my face, and knew I wouldn't

196
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:16.080
be able to resist. When you come across that, it is just a matter of time before they take action.

197
00:13:17.040 --> 00:13:23.840
Like, I'm thinking of a recent thing that I, like, signed up for, and it took me, I mean,

198
00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:29.360
I probably saw, like, an ad for it, like, four, five, six times before I signed up, and then I

199
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:33.520
started getting their email. Like, it took a long time, but, like, it was so targeted to me,

200
00:13:33.520 --> 00:13:37.120
I could not help but feel like, wow, this is just, like, it's on the money, right?

201
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:37.600
Yeah.

202
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:43.840
When you feel like that, it's just a matter of time before they take action. And so, usually,

203
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:50.640
it's an issue of, like, you're either not, like, speaking the language of the target audience,

204
00:13:50.640 --> 00:13:57.040
so they don't feel identified with it, or maybe it's not even clear who the target audience is.

205
00:13:57.040 --> 00:14:03.520
Like, you haven't niched down enough. So, like, you know, just saying I can create a website for

206
00:14:03.520 --> 00:14:09.840
any business owner is a pretty big net to cast, and even Facebook doesn't know who to show it to.

207
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.120
That could literally be any person on planet Earth, you know?

208
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:20.000
Yeah, yeah. I mean, like, right now, like, the ad is targeted, like, to service business. So,

209
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:27.120
it's, like, the list of, like, HVAC, snowplow, landscape, you know, cleaning, like, it is kind

210
00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:33.680
of narrowed down to, like, that. And, like, the few, like, there's, like, one comment I got that

211
00:14:33.680 --> 00:14:37.520
didn't really make a lot of sense. And, like, but they're, like, people are liking, and there's,

212
00:14:37.520 --> 00:14:42.320
like, little by, like, little bits of, like, people saying, and I look at their profiles,

213
00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:47.840
and I can't really see much about them, you know? But it is targeted somewhat. It's not just going,

214
00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:53.680
like, anybody who owns a business. Like, it has been kind of targeted towards that more

215
00:14:53.680 --> 00:14:59.840
smaller business one-man show type of thing. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's still a pretty wide.

216
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.400
I've been honestly, I mean, that's, it's a lot. That's a lot

217
00:15:03.400 --> 00:15:07.400
of people. And it's hard for someone to come across that and

218
00:15:07.400 --> 00:15:10.320
be like, Oh, that's me. Like, it's just too wide of a net.

219
00:15:13.040 --> 00:15:18.280
Like, okay, so I actually was working with a guy a few months

220
00:15:18.280 --> 00:15:21.280
back, and he's doing a lot of what you're doing. I mean, very

221
00:15:21.280 --> 00:15:24.360
similar, except he's also doing like, in addition to the

222
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:27.840
building of the site, he helps them with SEO and helps them

223
00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:30.800
rank on Google searches so that they can get leads for their

224
00:15:30.800 --> 00:15:36.000
business, which is a good little thing to add. But he only worked

225
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:40.160
with people who were like, our guests. Do you know what I mean?

226
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:44.240
Like, people? Yeah, those are the only people he worked with.

227
00:15:44.280 --> 00:15:47.560
I mean, it was so specific. It was Yeah, it was almost like

228
00:15:47.560 --> 00:15:51.480
hyper specific. And I was like, Why did you choose this? And

229
00:15:51.480 --> 00:15:54.840
he's like, Well, I did a couple and then it was like, I kind of

230
00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:58.960
knew what he was doing what to do. So I like provide really

231
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:02.080
excellent service to the people in this industry. And he gets

232
00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:05.280
and he he's like, I get enough business from everyone in the

233
00:16:05.280 --> 00:16:08.960
country. Right? There are arborists. He's like, I don't

234
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:11.960
need to branch out. So like, when you when and when I have

235
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:15.800
person comes across that ad and is like, I'm an arborist and I

236
00:16:15.800 --> 00:16:19.200
need that. Like it's right. It's it hits harder identify. Oh,

237
00:16:19.880 --> 00:16:23.440
like it feels really specific. Yeah. So me if you don't want to

238
00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:26.560
niche down to a specific industry, which I think is

239
00:16:26.560 --> 00:16:30.480
pretty specific, you can be shown in another way. Like you

240
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:35.600
could single out specifically, like like you're saying

241
00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:37.960
service-based businesses, but you could add some filters to

242
00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:46.120
that. Like you could say I'm looking for like, single LLC

243
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:50.800
people like what am I trying to say? Like single owner run

244
00:16:50.840 --> 00:16:53.520
businesses, right? Oh, employees, like it's just a one

245
00:16:53.520 --> 00:16:56.720
man show, like you're saying, like, like literally use that

246
00:16:56.720 --> 00:17:00.560
word. If you use that word in the ad, Facebook will find

247
00:17:00.560 --> 00:17:03.520
people who are single owner LLCs. I'm not kidding you.

248
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:09.200
Right. Say that in the ad, you could also maybe I would say it

249
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.119
might be a good idea for you to niche down by age like people

250
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:17.800
over the age of 40. So like, single people over the age of

251
00:17:17.800 --> 00:17:21.680
40, who run a business by themselves, a service business,

252
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:24.359
like that's more niche to the point where like someone's going

253
00:17:24.359 --> 00:17:26.880
to feel called out when they see that ad and Facebook is going to

254
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:30.440
have a much better idea of who to send that to and show it to.

255
00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:32.880
Yeah, that's like, that's the first thing I would do. That

256
00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:36.480
would be step one, because I think you'll see like, not

257
00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:41.680
necessarily more interest, but better quality, right? People

258
00:17:41.680 --> 00:17:46.160
more likely to take action. Yes. The second thing I would do is

259
00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:49.760
think about thinking about anything that would get in the

260
00:17:49.760 --> 00:17:54.960
way of someone saying yes to that, and provide us an answer

261
00:17:54.960 --> 00:17:59.240
for that in the lead magnet. So like, for example, you just said

262
00:17:59.280 --> 00:18:02.120
they might not even know they need one, say that, like, say

263
00:18:02.120 --> 00:18:04.800
their thoughts out loud and be like, right, I'd be thinking, I

264
00:18:04.800 --> 00:18:08.760
don't know if I need one, I can tell you if you need to literally

265
00:18:08.760 --> 00:18:11.600
call that out and tell them that you're going to give them the

266
00:18:11.600 --> 00:18:14.800
answer to every question they have. You don't know how to get

267
00:18:14.800 --> 00:18:17.240
a domain that's been holding you up. I'll get it for you.

268
00:18:17.280 --> 00:18:20.080
Yeah, I'm not gonna send you a video. I'm gonna do it for you.

269
00:18:20.120 --> 00:18:23.000
Yeah, you don't even have to worry about it. You know, like,

270
00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:27.640
yeah, just take away all the friction. So think through or

271
00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:31.440
talk through a chat. Like what are all of the like, all the

272
00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:35.920
opposition? Yes, what what are those barriers? And then answer

273
00:18:35.920 --> 00:18:39.920
that in your full custom package, like provide every

274
00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:43.400
solution to that. Yeah. And I think you're hitting the right

275
00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:45.720
person, they feel called out, you're answering every

276
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.920
objection they have. I mean, how can they not say no? Yeah.

277
00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:52.560
Right. Yeah. Again, it's just a matter of time before they take

278
00:18:52.560 --> 00:18:54.240
action and that right, right.

279
00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:57.240
Well, and I do want to like I mean, I just I mean, like this

280
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:00.400
new ad, it hasn't been running for a week, you know, so I'm

281
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:05.920
like, need to be patient. So I'm like, do you think like, is that

282
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:09.240
my thought is to just because the one that I'm running, it's

283
00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:12.440
got a picture. It's I'm focusing on landscape. I mean, that's

284
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:14.920
kind of like, I'm it's my website says like any service

285
00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:18.040
business. But it's I'm I am focusing on landscapers because

286
00:19:18.040 --> 00:19:20.120
it was snow plowed. And now we're out of that season

287
00:19:20.120 --> 00:19:23.680
because I'm like, kind of like it's West Michigan. Okay. A lot

288
00:19:23.680 --> 00:19:26.000
of but now it's landscape season. So I was like, well,

289
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:29.360
folks, so the picture is landscapers. So it is kind of

290
00:19:29.360 --> 00:19:33.040
focused on that. But my thought is like, Oh, go ahead.

291
00:19:33.080 --> 00:19:35.920
All right. I just thought when you said that, do you have a lot

292
00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:39.600
of non English speaking landscapers where you live? Yes.

293
00:19:39.840 --> 00:19:43.680
That's an extremely common, extremely common profession for

294
00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:47.400
especially Hispanic immigrants is landscaping. I would run the

295
00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:50.800
ad in Spanish too. Okay, that was good. That was something

296
00:19:50.800 --> 00:19:53.640
else. Oh, yeah, because I see a lot of comments coming. And

297
00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:57.440
there are Spanish speakers. And I'm like, yes. And maybe that's

298
00:19:57.440 --> 00:19:59.400
what the number one thing holding them back is going to

299
00:19:59.400 --> 00:19:59.800
be

300
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.280
yeah the language they don't know how to build the website in english or you know they're trying to

301
00:20:05.280 --> 00:20:10.080
hire a friend who kind of speaks in it i have a lot of experience with this i literally was an esl

302
00:20:10.080 --> 00:20:14.560
teacher i work mostly with the hispanic population i know all the objectives they have yeah and

303
00:20:14.560 --> 00:20:18.800
they're not going to be super familiar with technology usually first-gen immigrants are

304
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:25.040
so you are going to be like i'm going to be your liaison to the english-speaking community

305
00:20:25.040 --> 00:20:29.920
it's gonna be easy it's gonna be great you just show up and do what you want to do so that would

306
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:34.480
be a really good target audience for you honestly you can make a whole niche just out of pads yeah

307
00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:39.280
it's only i don't wish i knew how to speak spanish that would help but there's chat gpt

308
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:44.640
honestly you don't need to you don't need to because the service you are providing them

309
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:50.480
is they need english for the only reason you would need spanish is to like ask them questions

310
00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:56.000
right but if you're like you know through messages you can get the job done yeah for sure

311
00:20:56.000 --> 00:21:01.680
but so mike do you think like for like let's say next their next step like i'm definitely that

312
00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:08.640
gives me a lot to research my my first thought is let the current one run but maybe make like

313
00:21:08.640 --> 00:21:15.040
copy it make a spanish version of it yes and run that i would run it in english and spanish

314
00:21:15.120 --> 00:21:21.200
same exact yeah okay so maybe that'll be my first step will be copy the same one in spanish

315
00:21:21.760 --> 00:21:28.000
and run it at the same time and then start yeah and thinking about what to answer yeah the reason

316
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:33.680
why i run it in spanish to see how it performed is because uh you know they'll still they may still

317
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:39.600
come across the english ad um because facebook can translate it for them or they can see you

318
00:21:39.600 --> 00:21:46.240
know they can see the translated version but if you put it in spanish it tells facebook's algorithm

319
00:21:46.240 --> 00:21:50.400
show this to spanish speakers all of a sudden you're showing up in front of spanish speakers

320
00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:55.600
it's just like a much faster way to get in front of them because that's what facebook's going to

321
00:21:55.600 --> 00:22:00.800
show them right who are they going to show spanish out to people who speak spanish right so um okay

322
00:22:00.800 --> 00:22:08.240
and you could even like adjust the ad creative to like show like you know like latino people

323
00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:13.760
landscape like you want them to feel identified identify yeah okay cool but yeah i think that's a

324
00:22:13.760 --> 00:22:20.320
really good idea all right great ideas thank you yeah yeah no problem all right what other

325
00:22:20.320 --> 00:22:35.520
questions do we have here any other questions i've got a quick question sure all right so i finally

326
00:22:35.520 --> 00:22:41.920
am working with a great manufacturer um like ready to order my sample and everything from them

327
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:47.360
and i'm just wondering what is the best way to lay out all of like the specs of my product for

328
00:22:47.360 --> 00:22:56.240
them like the innovations is there like a long time ago um i was sent kind of just a document

329
00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:03.120
from one of like my first coach back in september and not sure if that's still like an up-to-date

330
00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:09.600
thing that is used by rainmakers to send manufacturers yeah yeah for sure um there

331
00:23:09.600 --> 00:23:16.160
might even i think there might be something in the uh in the course that's kind of like a template

332
00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:22.000
i want to say michelle coach michelle had made it and it was like uh maybe this is just for the

333
00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:27.600
design i can't remember this would be in phase two but it was just kind of like a template

334
00:23:27.600 --> 00:23:35.840
uh i'll show you one that i've done um oh wait i'm in the wrong account i did like a

335
00:23:35.840 --> 00:23:42.800
i mean you can do anything any way for you to like just deliver written words with photos

336
00:23:42.800 --> 00:23:49.680
is excellent so that's a google doc i did like a google slide thing whatever you want it to be

337
00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:56.400
uh just make sure it's like words clear descriptions accompanied with pictures whenever

338
00:23:56.400 --> 00:24:02.640
possible um that's just going to communicate your concepts really clearly if you haven't

339
00:24:02.640 --> 00:24:12.720
already done this i love getting a like product sketch like done for like what i want um you could

340
00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:16.720
depending on the product if it's like a kind of highly technical product or something you want

341
00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:22.240
to do like a cad design like a cad drawing it's like think like you know engineering type it's

342
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:29.600
like really high quality lots of specs uh or if it's not that kind of product like it doesn't

343
00:24:29.600 --> 00:24:34.240
really need a cab design you can still do a product sketch so that's what i did the example

344
00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:40.720
i'm going to show you that's what i did and it just um this is something you can hire someone

345
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:47.200
on five or four um and i literally just like i described everything in words and asked them to

346
00:24:47.200 --> 00:24:52.880
draw it like draw a product sketch of this took a few back and forth revisions but once i had it

347
00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:57.760
this is the clearest way for me to communicate to the manufacturer what's in my head and like

348
00:24:57.760 --> 00:24:59.760
what i'm trying to get them to do right

349
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.760
So this is the slide thing that I sent them.

350
00:25:03.760 --> 00:25:06.120
So the first page is just, here's the overall design.

351
00:25:06.120 --> 00:25:09.560
This is the part of the product sketch that they sent me.

352
00:25:09.560 --> 00:25:12.680
So I'm just showing them the front, the back, the side.

353
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:14.920
And then I had gone back and forth

354
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:17.520
with the manufacturer on materials and sizing

355
00:25:17.520 --> 00:25:18.320
and stuff like that.

356
00:25:18.320 --> 00:25:22.680
And so once I picked, she sent me samples of the material.

357
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:25.960
And so I knew exactly what the name of the material was.

358
00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:29.560
So see how I'm telling her, the exterior material

359
00:25:29.560 --> 00:25:30.400
is going to be this.

360
00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:31.760
The interior is going to be this.

361
00:25:31.760 --> 00:25:33.200
This is the hardware that I want.

362
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:35.560
I'm sending her pictures of those things.

363
00:25:35.560 --> 00:25:37.200
I'm sending her the dimensions.

364
00:25:37.200 --> 00:25:41.560
I'm sending her links of other examples

365
00:25:41.560 --> 00:25:43.160
that I found on the internet.

366
00:25:43.160 --> 00:25:46.320
So I'm saying, see this example for the shape

367
00:25:46.320 --> 00:25:49.080
of the top of your design.

368
00:25:49.080 --> 00:25:52.720
So I'm sending her this example of another product, not mine,

369
00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:54.800
but something I found online that captures

370
00:25:54.800 --> 00:25:57.640
what I'm looking for, which, of course, isn't there anymore.

371
00:25:57.640 --> 00:26:01.160
And then I'm just showing her both in pictures

372
00:26:01.160 --> 00:26:03.280
and in written words.

373
00:26:03.280 --> 00:26:05.920
I'm trying to describe what I want,

374
00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:08.360
sending her other examples of other bags

375
00:26:08.360 --> 00:26:12.880
when possible, just to give her a general idea.

376
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:14.600
So I would do something like this.

377
00:26:14.600 --> 00:26:16.160
This could be easily in a Google Doc.

378
00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:18.120
It could be in a slide show, whatever you want.

379
00:26:18.120 --> 00:26:23.320
But pictures, words, links, screenshots, other examples,

380
00:26:23.320 --> 00:26:26.880
all of those things are great to communicate your ideas.

381
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:27.400
Perfect.

382
00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:31.200
And you do recommend getting a sketch done of the product.

383
00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:31.720
I do.

384
00:26:31.720 --> 00:26:33.680
I think it's really helpful.

385
00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:36.080
I've done products where I didn't do that, that

386
00:26:36.080 --> 00:26:39.080
were simpler, especially if it's like I'm

387
00:26:39.080 --> 00:26:42.320
taking a product that's mostly already exists,

388
00:26:42.320 --> 00:26:44.560
and I'm just making tweaks to it.

389
00:26:44.560 --> 00:26:47.840
This particular product was a design from scratch.

390
00:26:47.840 --> 00:26:49.560
I really couldn't find anything like it.

391
00:26:49.560 --> 00:26:53.000
And so I felt that a product sketch was absolutely needed

392
00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:54.760
because I couldn't find anything like it.

393
00:26:54.760 --> 00:26:56.760
And I really didn't know how else

394
00:26:56.760 --> 00:27:01.000
to get the picture I had in my head across to them.

395
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:05.360
So it depends on how novel of an idea it is that you're making.

396
00:27:05.360 --> 00:27:09.120
And I've made products that were entire.

397
00:27:09.120 --> 00:27:11.320
The whole communication was me sending

398
00:27:11.320 --> 00:27:13.560
screenshots of other things.

399
00:27:13.560 --> 00:27:15.800
I want this from this product, this from this product,

400
00:27:15.800 --> 00:27:18.920
this little piece from this, and they put it together.

401
00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:20.280
So you can get it done that way.

402
00:27:20.280 --> 00:27:23.040
It just depends on how complex the idea is.

403
00:27:23.040 --> 00:27:23.960
OK.

404
00:27:23.960 --> 00:27:24.440
Awesome.

405
00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:25.080
I appreciate that.

406
00:27:25.080 --> 00:27:25.560
Thank you.

407
00:27:25.560 --> 00:27:26.040
Yeah.

408
00:27:26.040 --> 00:27:29.160
If you need any recommendations for fiber people,

409
00:27:29.160 --> 00:27:30.280
I've worked with a few.

410
00:27:30.280 --> 00:27:31.960
I can send you some of my favorites.

411
00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:32.880
But yeah.

412
00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:34.760
That would be awesome.

413
00:27:34.760 --> 00:27:36.240
I'll send you the guy who did this.

414
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:38.360
He actually did a really good job and really cheap.

415
00:27:38.360 --> 00:27:39.760
I think I paid him $20.

416
00:27:39.760 --> 00:27:44.080
And all these pictures you see, he sent me all of these.

417
00:27:44.080 --> 00:27:44.600
OK.

418
00:27:44.600 --> 00:27:45.920
That's definitely worth it.

419
00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:47.560
I don't even know really how he did it.

420
00:27:47.560 --> 00:27:48.560
Some computer program.

421
00:27:48.560 --> 00:27:49.120
I don't know.

422
00:27:49.120 --> 00:27:50.000
That's not my forte.

423
00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:51.120
But it was really cheap.

424
00:27:51.120 --> 00:27:55.560
So let me find this guy's contact.

425
00:27:55.560 --> 00:27:58.960
And I will send it to you.

426
00:27:58.960 --> 00:27:59.920
That would be awesome.

427
00:27:59.920 --> 00:28:01.200
Thank you.

428
00:28:01.200 --> 00:28:01.700
Yeah.

429
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:06.320
All right.

430
00:28:06.320 --> 00:28:07.600
Other questions?

431
00:28:08.600 --> 00:28:11.880
I guess I have one more question.

432
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:13.880
Sure.

433
00:28:13.880 --> 00:28:15.760
Kind of about patents.

434
00:28:15.760 --> 00:28:17.880
So yesterday, I was doing a little bit of research,

435
00:28:17.880 --> 00:28:20.640
just making sure there's nothing out there.

436
00:28:20.640 --> 00:28:24.520
And right now, there is a patent pending, kind of for,

437
00:28:24.520 --> 00:28:27.600
it's more on the utility patent side.

438
00:28:27.600 --> 00:28:28.120
OK.

439
00:28:28.120 --> 00:28:28.640
Yeah.

440
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:30.360
So I'm going to go ahead and get started.

441
00:28:30.360 --> 00:28:32.000
I'm going to go ahead and get started.

442
00:28:32.000 --> 00:28:33.640
I'm going to go ahead and get started.

443
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:35.280
I'm going to go ahead and get started.

444
00:28:35.320 --> 00:28:41.680
So are you able to see the details of the utility patent?

445
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:46.320
Are you able to see what they have patented specifically?

446
00:28:46.320 --> 00:28:51.880
So are you able to see the details of the utility patent?

447
00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:55.080
Are you able to see what they have patented specifically?

448
00:28:55.080 --> 00:28:55.600
Yeah.

449
00:28:55.600 --> 00:28:59.280
It's pretty much the attachment mechanism on the bag.

450
00:28:59.280 --> 00:29:02.200
So the product is a magnetic gym bag.

451
00:29:02.200 --> 00:29:02.680
OK.

452
00:29:02.680 --> 00:29:04.800
And so what the utility patent is for

453
00:29:04.800 --> 00:29:08.440
it connects to other magnetic surfaces.

454
00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:11.680
And the biggest overall description

455
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:17.080
is just that it's a flat surface on the back of the bag

456
00:29:17.080 --> 00:29:21.960
with magnets that attaches to another magnetic surface.

457
00:29:21.960 --> 00:29:23.560
I see.

458
00:29:23.560 --> 00:29:28.320
Is your design going to in any way be similar to that?

459
00:29:28.320 --> 00:29:31.040
The attachment part of it, yes, just

460
00:29:31.040 --> 00:29:35.480
because that's the whole concept of the bag itself.

461
00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:41.400
But there are things that set it apart from their patent,

462
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:42.360
if that makes sense.

463
00:29:42.360 --> 00:29:43.640
It's not just a bag.

464
00:29:43.640 --> 00:29:48.640
It also acts as a phone stand for workouts.

465
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:49.240
Like, yeah.

466
00:29:49.240 --> 00:29:51.200
It's got lots of features.

467
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:53.120
What you need to be concerned about

468
00:29:53.120 --> 00:29:56.880
is the specific thing they have patented.

469
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:59.280
So even if it weren't a bag, but you're

470
00:29:59.280 --> 00:30:00.280
using the

471
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.220
same mechanism, and that's what they have patented.

472
00:30:02.220 --> 00:30:03.720
Even if it were a different product,

473
00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:07.080
they could still try to sue someone for that.

474
00:30:07.080 --> 00:30:10.920
Even if it were, say, a completely different product,

475
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.200
but they're using this patented concept

476
00:30:14.200 --> 00:30:16.880
of how the magnetic thing connects surfaces.

477
00:30:16.880 --> 00:30:18.680
That's the important part of it.

478
00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:21.400
So you would want to just steer clear of that.

479
00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:22.640
So how worried should you be?

480
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:24.840
If you're steering clear of what they have patented,

481
00:30:24.840 --> 00:30:26.200
not worried.

482
00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:28.960
As long as you're avoiding that, it's no problem.

483
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:34.560
If it could be construed in any way, they could,

484
00:30:34.560 --> 00:30:36.880
I mean, if they tried to sue,

485
00:30:36.880 --> 00:30:39.840
trying to sue you would be a pretty extreme move.

486
00:30:39.840 --> 00:30:41.960
The first thing that they would do

487
00:30:41.960 --> 00:30:44.200
is contact you with a cease and desist

488
00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:46.480
and tell you to stop selling your product

489
00:30:46.480 --> 00:30:49.520
and to dump all of your inventory.

490
00:30:49.520 --> 00:30:51.760
And I've seen that happen before with people

491
00:30:51.760 --> 00:30:52.800
where people reach out and were like,

492
00:30:52.800 --> 00:30:55.040
you have to immediately stop selling this product.

493
00:30:55.040 --> 00:30:58.400
They can even ask you to pay them

494
00:30:58.400 --> 00:31:02.840
for any profits that you've earned on previous sales.

495
00:31:03.800 --> 00:31:05.320
They're probably not going to try to sue you.

496
00:31:05.320 --> 00:31:08.000
It's really expensive and a long process to do that,

497
00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:11.520
but they can really mess up your situation

498
00:31:11.520 --> 00:31:13.000
if you've ordered a thousand units

499
00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:14.720
and then you can't sell them, right?

500
00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:19.120
So you want to be really careful about steering clear

501
00:31:19.120 --> 00:31:22.040
of anything that could be construed

502
00:31:22.040 --> 00:31:24.000
as overlapping with their patent.

503
00:31:25.360 --> 00:31:27.280
They don't even have to prove it, right?

504
00:31:27.280 --> 00:31:28.640
They don't even have to prove

505
00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:30.640
that you have in fact infringed on their patent.

506
00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:35.160
If you tread on their territory in any way,

507
00:31:35.160 --> 00:31:36.440
even if it's, you know,

508
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:39.720
they wouldn't, might not uphold an accord of law,

509
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:42.440
they can still, like they have the upper hand with Amazon.

510
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:44.160
Amazon doesn't play around with that.

511
00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:46.760
So if they submit something to Amazon

512
00:31:46.760 --> 00:31:49.080
and say, I think this person is infringing on my patent,

513
00:31:49.080 --> 00:31:50.800
they're just going to take their side.

514
00:31:50.800 --> 00:31:52.360
They're just immediately going to take their side

515
00:31:52.360 --> 00:31:53.280
and shut down your listing.

516
00:31:53.280 --> 00:31:55.840
They're not going to figure out who's right.

517
00:31:55.840 --> 00:31:57.400
They're not interested in that.

518
00:31:57.400 --> 00:31:58.680
They're just going to play it safe

519
00:31:58.680 --> 00:32:01.040
with the person who filed the patent.

520
00:32:01.040 --> 00:32:04.680
So the key here is don't piss off the patent owner.

521
00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:08.160
Like avoid any confrontation with the patent owner

522
00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:10.280
so that they don't even want to come after you.

523
00:32:10.280 --> 00:32:13.160
Sometimes if they're your direct competitor,

524
00:32:13.160 --> 00:32:14.360
they'll come after you anyway.

525
00:32:14.360 --> 00:32:18.080
Like I have seen patent owners come after anyone

526
00:32:18.080 --> 00:32:18.920
in their space,

527
00:32:18.920 --> 00:32:22.280
even if they weren't doing anything with their patent,

528
00:32:22.280 --> 00:32:24.280
just because they're stealing their sales.

529
00:32:24.320 --> 00:32:27.080
And again, the burden of proof is on the person

530
00:32:27.080 --> 00:32:28.920
who's trying to defend themselves at that point.

531
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:31.160
Like Amazon's siding with the patent owner.

532
00:32:31.160 --> 00:32:34.600
So you want to like make a wide berth

533
00:32:34.600 --> 00:32:37.200
around this patent owner person.

534
00:32:38.080 --> 00:32:40.280
I know that it's probably the concept

535
00:32:40.280 --> 00:32:42.480
and the keyword of it is like the magnetic thing.

536
00:32:42.480 --> 00:32:44.600
But if you, if I were in that situation,

537
00:32:44.600 --> 00:32:47.520
I'd try to avoid the magnetic thing entirely.

538
00:32:47.520 --> 00:32:49.760
And then there's like no real argument there.

539
00:32:49.760 --> 00:32:50.840
Like there's no argument.

540
00:32:50.840 --> 00:32:53.040
Like I'm not even, it's not even magnetic.

541
00:32:53.320 --> 00:32:54.680
I'm doing some other thing,

542
00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:58.040
like some other attachment, some other cool idea.

543
00:32:58.040 --> 00:33:01.800
If that kind of like shoots down the product idea entirely,

544
00:33:01.800 --> 00:33:05.320
maybe if you still want to like hang onto the product,

545
00:33:05.320 --> 00:33:08.680
I'd maybe get an opinion from like an IP attorney,

546
00:33:08.680 --> 00:33:11.120
like an intellectual property person and just say like,

547
00:33:11.120 --> 00:33:14.800
hey, like how risky do you think this is before I do this?

548
00:33:17.040 --> 00:33:18.800
Just to kind of know.

549
00:33:19.760 --> 00:33:22.720
But if you can avoid the magnetic thing entirely,

550
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:24.240
then I think you'd be safe.

551
00:33:24.240 --> 00:33:26.000
But if that isn't a shoot down the idea,

552
00:33:26.000 --> 00:33:29.520
then you might need to do a little deeper digging on it.

553
00:33:29.520 --> 00:33:31.760
Yeah, I've kind of had the same thoughts

554
00:33:31.760 --> 00:33:34.640
of doing a little bit more digging.

555
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:36.320
It's not like it hasn't been approved.

556
00:33:36.320 --> 00:33:37.880
It honestly was just submitted.

557
00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:42.160
So I know it takes a long time to even figure all that out

558
00:33:42.160 --> 00:33:44.040
for the patent to get approved.

559
00:33:44.040 --> 00:33:46.360
But like currently on Amazon, there are a lot.

560
00:33:46.360 --> 00:33:47.720
It does.

561
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:49.360
Do they have anything on their listing

562
00:33:49.360 --> 00:33:52.240
that says like patent pending or anything like that?

563
00:33:52.680 --> 00:33:55.280
Not currently, not on Amazon that I've seen.

564
00:33:56.280 --> 00:34:01.080
They are like the only kind of relatively big person

565
00:34:01.080 --> 00:34:03.200
selling this product.

566
00:34:03.200 --> 00:34:05.400
All of the other people on Amazon are just,

567
00:34:05.400 --> 00:34:06.840
it's kind of a new thing.

568
00:34:06.840 --> 00:34:08.800
And so there's people trying,

569
00:34:08.800 --> 00:34:13.480
but there's not like a lot of reviews or there's great sales

570
00:34:13.480 --> 00:34:15.440
but not a lot of reviews on Amazon yet

571
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:19.679
for most of the people, except for this one company.

572
00:34:19.679 --> 00:34:21.440
Okay, that's probably why they're trying

573
00:34:22.400 --> 00:34:23.239
Right, yeah.

574
00:34:23.239 --> 00:34:24.800
They've seen some success.

575
00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:26.080
Yes.

576
00:34:26.080 --> 00:34:27.600
All right, cool.

577
00:34:29.040 --> 00:34:30.880
I'll look more into it for sure.

578
00:34:31.880 --> 00:34:34.480
Yeah, if you weren't digging.

579
00:34:34.480 --> 00:34:37.480
Yeah, I'd reach out to an IP attorney.

580
00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:40.520
You know who you could reach out to?

581
00:34:40.520 --> 00:34:45.520
So Prime Corporate Services has a guy

582
00:34:45.600 --> 00:34:47.760
who I think he's an IP attorney.

583
00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:49.400
Bye Grima.

584
00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:50.920
His name is Frank.

585
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:54.280
So you could start with Frank

586
00:34:54.280 --> 00:34:57.440
because you can ask him an initial question

587
00:34:57.440 --> 00:34:59.320
and it's not gonna cost you anything.

588
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.400
you at some point when it's going to cost something,

589
00:35:02.400 --> 00:35:04.640
but you could probably get some free info out of him.

590
00:35:04.640 --> 00:35:07.640
So especially because like they have a relationship with us.

591
00:35:07.640 --> 00:35:10.920
So it's in their best interest to like make us happy basically.

592
00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:14.480
So you can get more out of him than like just any random person

593
00:35:14.480 --> 00:35:17.520
who isn't affiliated with us.

594
00:35:17.520 --> 00:35:20.600
So check out Frank from Prime Corporate Services.

595
00:35:20.600 --> 00:35:22.120
And he's dropping this in the chat.

596
00:35:22.120 --> 00:35:24.080
Yeah, Lisa says, Frank is great.

597
00:35:24.080 --> 00:35:27.600
He's done a lot of like brand registry trademark stuff,

598
00:35:27.600 --> 00:35:29.280
but he'll know about patents too.

599
00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:31.240
That's like in his wheelhouse.

600
00:35:31.240 --> 00:35:34.600
And then here is the, I'm going to drop the link

601
00:35:34.600 --> 00:35:37.640
for the Fiverr guy.

602
00:35:40.440 --> 00:35:41.680
Fiverr.

603
00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:44.280
I should have done this on my computer.

604
00:35:44.280 --> 00:35:46.160
Then I could have copied it.

605
00:35:46.160 --> 00:35:47.160
I'm just thinking.

606
00:35:50.440 --> 00:35:55.440
R-E-4-I-G, I think that's right.

607
00:35:57.040 --> 00:35:57.880
Check.

608
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:03.880
S-R-E-4-I-G-5-N, okay, I messed that up just a little bit.

609
00:36:17.160 --> 00:36:19.000
Okay, let me see if this works.

610
00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:20.800
I had two fours in here, hold on.

611
00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:33.880
Four, all right, try that link, okay.

612
00:36:34.240 --> 00:36:35.680
I'm really butchering this.

613
00:36:35.680 --> 00:36:37.680
His name is Mark.

614
00:36:38.520 --> 00:36:41.680
That's, you should see if that link works.

615
00:36:43.200 --> 00:36:46.680
I'm trying to see, his prices look like they've gone up,

616
00:36:46.680 --> 00:36:51.560
but I think I did the like, I did like the lowest,

617
00:36:51.560 --> 00:36:53.600
I did the lowest one, honestly.

618
00:36:54.600 --> 00:36:56.840
But, or, you know, even people like him,

619
00:36:56.840 --> 00:36:57.920
you don't have to necessarily use him,

620
00:36:57.920 --> 00:37:00.920
but like, you'll see the keywords that he's using,

621
00:37:00.920 --> 00:37:03.320
and then you can look up other people.

622
00:37:03.320 --> 00:37:05.840
Because at this point, I'd probably hire someone cheaper.

623
00:37:05.840 --> 00:37:08.960
It looks like he's gone up a bit with all of his sales.

624
00:37:08.960 --> 00:37:10.640
But yeah, you're looking for product sketch,

625
00:37:10.640 --> 00:37:12.280
product designer, basically.

626
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:15.200
Awesome, thank you so much.

627
00:37:15.200 --> 00:37:16.200
Yeah, no problem.

628
00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:19.000
All righty.

629
00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:23.800
Okay, what other questions do we have?

630
00:37:26.280 --> 00:37:28.400
Anything else we wanna go over today?

631
00:37:35.640 --> 00:37:38.040
You guys just mostly hanging out and listening?

632
00:37:38.960 --> 00:37:42.720
Lisa's, Lisa squared, team Lisa's on the call.

633
00:37:42.720 --> 00:37:47.720
Lisa's on the call, Lisa's on the call, Lisa's on the call.

634
00:37:48.720 --> 00:37:52.320
All right, well, if there's no other questions,

635
00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:54.480
I'm gonna wrap up early

636
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:58.720
and get to a couple of questions in my email here.

637
00:37:59.560 --> 00:38:02.240
So last chance, any other questions?

638
00:38:02.240 --> 00:38:03.720
Anyone wants to go over?

639
00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:10.800
Okay, tomorrow, UCLides will be on 9 a.m.

640
00:38:10.800 --> 00:38:12.960
And then Thursday, Stephen will be on 9 a.m.

641
00:38:12.960 --> 00:38:14.520
So if you have more questions,

642
00:38:14.520 --> 00:38:16.280
you wanna go over to UCLides,

643
00:38:16.280 --> 00:38:19.120
if you have more questions, you wanna come back.

644
00:38:20.040 --> 00:38:24.320
UCLides is especially great at marketing, advertising.

645
00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:26.240
So come back for questions about that.

646
00:38:26.240 --> 00:38:28.440
And Stephen will answer anything,

647
00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:31.640
but he loves talking about AI these days, especially.

648
00:38:31.640 --> 00:38:34.600
So if you wanna geek out on AI stuff,

649
00:38:34.600 --> 00:38:36.240
go hang out with him on Thursday.

650
00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:40.560
Other than that, I will see you guys next week.

651
00:38:40.560 --> 00:38:42.440
All right, have a good week, everyone.
