Building the product is the easy part.

Selling it, delivering it, and supporting the people who buy it? That is a completely different job, and nobody posts about it.

In this episode, we are pulling back the curtain on our own launches and sharing the six lessons we wish someone had told us before we launched our first digital product. Since 2021 we have sold everything from a photography ebook and travel guides to a low ticket membership and our high ticket coaching program, The Creator Passport, and we have made just about every mistake on this list ourselves.

In this episode, we cover:

1. Announcing is not selling. Why your launch does not end at the announcement, and why you have to go find your buyers in the DMs, on Stories, and everywhere else, even when it feels uncomfortable.
2. The sale is the starting line. The fulfillment, onboarding, and quick first win your buyers need, plus the support work nobody warns you about (including the classic .con instead of .com email typo).
3. Cheap tech costs you more. How our custom-built website crashed in the middle of our second launch, and how a frozen webinar chat quietly killed our sales energy.
4. Rehearse your tech like it is already launch day. Test purchases, test mode traps, ManyChat run-throughs, and tracking every link before you promote anything.
5. Coaching is a different job than creating. Why most client problems are not tactical, and how to guide people to the answer instead of just giving it.
6. Low ticket means high volume. What it actually takes to sell a low priced product, why high ticket is a proximity game, and why we are glad we started small.

Brad Bizjack is back, one of our closest friends, a mindset coach who's helped nearly 100,000 people over 13 years, and the person we send every creator to when strategy isn't the problem.

We're drowning in information but starving for wisdom. AI can hand you answers in seconds, yet creators have never felt more stuck. In this episode, Brad breaks down what's actually happening beneath the surface: why you outsource your decisions to a robot, why your brain treats a viral video like a threat, and why "self-sabotage" isn't real.

We're covering:

• The speed-to-action test: one sentence that tells you whether you're procrastinating or actually missing strategy
• The combination lock of success — strategy, belief systems, and energy — and why most creators only ever fix one of the three
• Why your nervous system freezes when a post pops off or a brand asks for your rates (Giselle shares the story of our first viral video)
• The question that unlocked dozens of transformations in our community: what would you go after with 3x the courage and 3x the energy?
• Fear vs. faith, and why the most beautiful parts of your life all came from the other side of uncertainty
• Where to actually start with the deeper work (hint: it's not hunting for everything that's wrong with you)

Plus: Brad's free 5-day Success Accelerator kicks off October 19th. We've done it two years in a row 11/10 recommend. Details in the links below.

You're posting consistently but it feels like nobody is seeing it. Or your views are climbing but the money isn't following. Those are the two problems every creator has to solve, and most people only know about the first one.

In this episode of The Creator Passport Podcast, we're breaking down both problems and exactly what changed for us at each stage. It took us 9 months to hit our first 1,000 followers, and even after we figured out growth, we had to learn that followers don't automatically turn into income.

We're covering:

• Why posting more isn't fixing your growth, and the 9 month to 1,000 follower story that taught us that
• The 4 systems that changed everything: understanding your target audience, hooks, repeatable formats, and a weekly content review process
• How to read your analytics without the emotion: skip rate, watch time, and retention
• The outlier video trap, and why you shouldn't double down on random viral posts
• Why a creator with 50,000 followers can make bank while someone with 200,000 barely cracks six figures
• The pitch that went unanswered for 6 months and turned into two $20,000 to $50,000 expeditions
• The mindset and personal growth work Giselle wishes she had started years earlier
