Intro

SPEAKER_02 0:00

I started from scratch, right? So no social media following, no experience, no nothing. But then in my fourth month, I hit forty thousand US dollars in a single month, and I was like, okay, this works. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 0:12

Meet Amaly Lunn, a digital marketing entrepreneur who built a $1 million online business in just two years. In this episode, Emily opens up her dashboard and shows us exactly how she runs her business, her funnels and her email campaigns. This is her story on the system.io podcast.

SPEAKER_01 0:32

Hi, everyone. I'm so excited to be sitting here with um, I guess, my new uh bestie in digital marketing here. Uh hi. Hi. I just um I'm so excited to have you here with us today. And um, you're using system.io to grow and scale your business. I believe you said to $1 million in two years. So before we start spilling the tea on everything system.io, I'd love to hear your background, what led you to digital marketing? And

Dealing with corporate burnout twice before age 30

SPEAKER_01 1:03

I believe you mentioned burnout as well. So twice 430.

SPEAKER_02 1:08

Yeah, got burnt out twice before 30. So I'm gonna dive into that. But it started in 2020, like 2021. Um, it was the back end of COVID in terms of working from home, and I just I noticed it was such a sweet switch from going into the office, being social, and then just taking on so many projects and not having a kind of a log on and log off time. So I was just constantly working, and I was working as a client success manager, having different markets, so the US, even though I was based in London and I was doing the European, so I was just constantly working, and I got to that point where I then went back because I'm Norwegian. I forgot to mention I'm uh Norwegian. So I went back on summer holiday uh to see my family, and then I was so used to being in the bubble of just working that my mom was like, Oh, but aren't you gonna like come and hang out with the family? And I was like, No, but I don't have time, I just need to work. And she was like, No, you like there, you're on a holiday now, you just need to take a bit of a break. And that's when I realized like I was just so constantly stressed, anxious. Um and I went on a sick leave, but unfortunately, like the company that I was working for, they like I got two weeks, um, and then I used also two weeks of my holiday on the sick leave, so one month in total. But for those who have experienced burnt out, normally you need a bit more time just to actually relax and to get started again. So I'm like in you in Europe, it's I know you guys in the US have a lot less holidays than us in uh Europe, so you're probably used to born more like fast-paced, but in Norway you get a couple of months when you're off. Um yeah, so if you're if you obviously you if you get it from the doctor so that you can fully recover. So I think the fact that I knew that I was two weeks and then I spent my own paid holiday to get that time off, it was just for me very stressful. So I thought the solution would be for me just to get a higher paying job, you know, more colleagues because they had to let some people go during um COVID. So I then took on more responsibility, but wasn't really compensated for it. So I thought, you know, a new company, a new fresh start. And I was able to do that. I got a new job, um, higher title and everything, but it came with more responsibility, obviously, because they want to justify. Um, and then six months in I got burnt out again, and I was like, this is not for me. Like, I I need something where I don't sacrifice my mental health, uh, also some like a job where I have more freedom. And I think the Instagram algorithm was able to pick up on that because I was scrolling one day and I saw this girl from Brazil, she is based in the US, and she um shared how she was able to work from the beach, she was able to buy designer bags, and I was like, that is a piece of me. Like I I see my future, like I want that. Um, and so she talked about like making money from um Instagram, posting, and I thought like maybe it's too good to be true. So like I just saved her post, waited two months, didn't take action, and then I hit a low point where I was like, I don't have I don't have anything to lose by giving this a go. So I bought a course, uh, spent all my savings. So I was like, I see this. She doesn't have English as her first language, but she's able to make this much. Like, if she can do it, maybe I can do it. Like, I was just trying to think. Um, like I spent so much money on this university degree in London, like I've just been climbing the corporate ladder, and then it led me just to this like rat race, basically. I don't want to do that for the next you know 30 years. So

Scaling from a $40 month to $40,000 in just 90 days

SPEAKER_02 4:42

went all in, made $40 my first month, and I was like, hmm, maybe this doesn't work. And then but I started from scratch, right? So no social media following, no experience, no nothing. But then in my fourth month, I hit 40,000 US dollars in a single month, and I was like, okay, this works. Okay, yeah, come on to something. So um, yeah, and it's just been like obviously going well since then, and just doing no instead of just focusing on affiliate marketing, I'm not having more income streams. So it's really been a development, but what a journey.

SPEAKER_01 5:17

Okay, woo. I think a lot of people can relate to that. Uh, I think we're seeing that in that next generation, a lot of that burnout, the overwhelm, the work-life balance that um people are looking for. And so you found digital marketing and you said affiliate marketing. So the first thing that you did with digital marketing was selling an affiliate to get that income first.

SPEAKER_02 5:40

Yeah, so I started with an affiliate marketing course, and then I also started promoting software companies because I was like, in order to do affiliate marketing, you need software to support it. So that kind of goes like hand in hand, and then also some Amazon products because people need, you know, like this, for instance, this selfie light here, like if you're gonna create content, so just trying to build on products that would support it.

SPEAKER_01 6:05

So um yeah, that organic compassion and marketing, it's all synergetic, you know, it all works together. I love that. And so, as you're selling these things, what were you using to propel people? Like, was it system.io out the gate, or did you kind of put hodgepodge some things together at first?

Switching to systeme.io for its all-in-one capability

SPEAKER_02 6:23

So I just started with because again, the course that I recommended um had another affiliate uh or they had an affiliate agreement with another software company. So I actually didn't use systemio my first year, but then it was suggested on the second course. I've done two digital marketing courses throughout these last three and a half years, and then systemio was the second, like was the first recommended on the second course, and that's when I started. So I had to learn everything from scratch and from System.io, and like in the beginning, I found it probably because I did everything on my own, like a bit more complicated to set up, but then once it's set up, like you can do everything on there, so it's worth the complexity, even though, like for me, that doesn't have English as my first language, and you need to like, I'm not tech savvy at all. So now I've created like a video tutorial for my customers so they can easily follow the system I own, they can do everything themselves. Um, and now it's like the cheapest one. I think it's like in comparison to the other softwares I use, like for the start offer for $17 a month. You know, like you can still get the automations, you can get your email list, you can get your digital store, you can even have your own course on there. So I really recommend it now for all of my customers.

SPEAKER_01 7:40

Wow, wow, and so their whole funnel, their whole business can be inside of system.io, and you recommend that to everyone that you know becomes a client, your coaching clients, anyone. So that becomes

How Amalie clones her system for her students

SPEAKER_01 7:54

I love it.

SPEAKER_02 7:55

And I really like cloned my system in there, so just to make it easier for them to get started. So I obviously have my affiliate link as well in my welcome email that I send them and I explain then here's the link to sign up the system IO, and then also then have a how to clone my system video step by step. So then they understand how to create their account, they understand how to get their affiliate link so they can get paid once they start recommending. And because I obviously want them to learn how to get multiple income streams and being an affiliate for systemio is one of them, and then also like how they can build their email list and everything.

SPEAKER_01 8:29

Oh, I love it, I love it. So you you're willing to share share your screen. We'd love to see how you're, you know, like you said, you build system.io and you're sharing your exact system. So these are people who have purchased system.io through you as an affiliate, and this is what you've been able to do.

[Screen Share] Inside Amalie’s affiliate dashboard

SPEAKER_02 8:47

Exactly. So you can see here like total leads sent 270. And also what I love is that you can earn in different currencies because now I move back to Norway. So a lot of my customers are Norwegian, but I also have like, for instance, here you can see the earnings overview. So if I click today, you can see the Norwegian crones appearing first. But also, if I click more, you can see like today is $28. Um, for instance, if you go to lifetime earnings, you can see 42,000 Norwegian crones, but you can see the dollars here, the um euros, and also the Danish crones. So the fact that I earn in like four different currencies, so it really works worldwide.

SPEAKER_01 9:27

Okay, so do you have to give them a separate link for each of those currencies, or does it just automatically do that for you when someone's paying?

SPEAKER_02 9:36

Yeah, so it automatically I just share my affiliate link down here, and then once I share this, then based on the country they're in, they then do third Norway, they will automatically start paying in a region quantum based on also the card that they put in.

SPEAKER_01 9:52

That's wonderful. That's wonderful. And so that's only one year's worth of growth right there. And you've been using um system.io for transparency.

SPEAKER_02 10:02

Two years? Yeah. Okay. So this is but also the fact that I have so this is where the main focus, but I also have another um software that I use on the side for people who just want to get started. So I have multiple income streams, but this is like the number one that I focus on in terms of software.

SPEAKER_01 10:19

Okay, beautiful. I this is amazing. I think a lot of people are gonna see that there's a lot of opportunity, even outside of just digital products, that system.io itself can be the product that you're helping people with their digital marketing. I love that.

SPEAKER_02 10:34

Yeah, so this, like, even though this is just like a oh, sorry, are you is it okay for if I keep explaining?

SPEAKER_01 10:40

Yes.

SPEAKER_02 10:41

So also,

Why recurring income is a certainty for your business

SPEAKER_02 10:42

what I love about this is that it's just a small like income stream in terms of all the other that I have, but it's the fact that it's recurring. So that's you know, like one of my favorite things about it, the fact that I get paid every single month and I just need to refer them in one welcome email. So I share this link from System.io in one welcome email, and after that, it's recurring every single month. So, like, and the amount isn't necessarily huge, but it's the fact that it's a certainty, like people recommend Netflix or Spotify that are monthly subscriptions, so why not do it with you know a software system where you can also get paid every single month?

SPEAKER_01 11:21

Yeah, so this is something that is predictable, you know, even if it's a small amount, you know. Well, at least I'm gonna have grocery money for this month.

SPEAKER_02 11:28

Exactly.

SPEAKER_01 11:31

And then everything else is that, you know, expenditures that you can use on that nice bag you mentioned earlier.

unknown 11:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 11:38

There's been a couple of bags. I have like this thing for every hundred K I make, I'm going to buy a new bag or treat myself. So there's been a couple.

SPEAKER_01 11:48

Um, my friends are introducing me to the nice bags. We like to um, you know, put all the little charms and they love they love that. So accessorizing your life with you know, things that bring you joy. And and with this income, you're able to do that. So I believe you said you have another system.io background too, um, or dashboard that you'd like to share?

SPEAKER_02 12:08

Yeah, I can go ahead and share that.

SPEAKER_01 12:11

All right. For well, thank you. Uh, real quick, you said you have two affili uh two dashboards. Are you using the sub accounts, or did you have to log out completely and into a different account? Just wondering how you organize your businesses and systems inside of system.io.

SPEAKER_02 12:26

So I actually, because I have an assistant, so I want her to have access to the dashboard that I just showed you, just with the affiliates. So when it's kind of like a test account. So I actually log in and out of the account each time.

[Screen Share] Walkthrough of her monthly sales and leads

SPEAKER_02 12:40

So, but this is like my main one where I control and uh where I have my email list, my sales funnels, and everything.

SPEAKER_01 12:49

Oh, lovely. So um, you say here we see we got 544 leads. Your sales for one month here is 44,000. That's amazing. How are you able to generate this? How are you getting your leads? Um, and um what what is it in your digital store that you're selling? Is it affiliates here as well? I'm excited to dive into this.

SPEAKER_02 13:10

Yeah, it's actually a mix. So I primarily focus on Instagram where I've been promoting then um digital products, but also I mainly get people to click on my LinkedIn bio, which is where my digital store is. And then I have um the main course that I promote, and I also created my own bundle, which includes the course along with my digital products. So I've created my own 2000 faceless content because I know a lot of people want to do digital marketing, but they probably aren't too comfortable showing themselves on camera, or maybe they're in a position with work, they don't want them to appear on their Instagram and show that they're trying to escape the job, or whatever reason people have not wanting to show themselves. So I created a content bank where people can use my content and post, also some Kickstarter products. So it's really like digital products just bundled together um so that they can buy. Uh, and then I have also like my access to my mentorship.

SPEAKER_01 14:10

Oh, mentorship as well. That's awesome. So um, and you were able to do this in one month. How long had you been doing? You said about four or five months, you hit this um you know, 40,000 a month uh income.

SPEAKER_02 14:24

I started uh in uh October 2022, so that's when I had my $40 month, and then January, January 2023, I had my 40k month, and then uh the first I would say 23 and 24, it was consistently 40k, and then it's been a bit up and down. Um, but it's been like on average between 30 and 40. So I had like my highest month, it was I think 65k, and then I also had like a 10k, 12k month.

SPEAKER_01 14:57

So wow, that's amazing. And and all of this is selling. I don't know, how many products do you think you're selling um overall?

SPEAKER_02 15:06

So it tends to be like uh it is a good question. So like maybe 50 products a month.

SPEAKER_01 15:15

Okay, 50. All right. Um and you scale to that.

SPEAKER_02 15:19

Yeah, so also like my coaching program one-to-one is more expensive than just buying, you know, my course bundle is only $597 and it's free updates. They get access to my private mentorship chat for 24-7 24-7 support. So there's a lot of value for money in that as well. But I know people who want to escape the rat race and want to start necessarily don't have the funding for it. So that's why I want to make it more accessible for them to start this themselves.

SPEAKER_01 15:49

That's awesome. Well, do you mind pulling, you know, opening up the hood of the engine? Can we see some funnels or your community and uh how you're um creating, I guess, more traction for them to get out of that rat race?

SPEAKER_02 16:04

Yes. So we can start. I can share my so actually uh I used to only use system IO for, I'm just gonna go back to uh I only use system IO for uh my funnel, but then I integrated it with show it. So now when they go to my uh my page, it looks like this. Yeah,

[Screen Share] Inside her opt-in page, sales funnel, and order form

SPEAKER_02 16:29

so this is my opt-in page to my email campaign. Uh and the this part here, so the email is what's integrated with systemio. So I only changed this in July. So I had like the other one for about a year and a half first, but then the funnel I give away to my customers is fully in systemio. It's just that I wanted to make something a bit different, so it looks like this now, and then when they go to my sales page, this is then fully done in um show with, but I'm still taking payment through systemio. So it's really cool how it integrates systemio with it.

SPEAKER_01 17:05

I loved your landing page, by the way. I love this, it's so beautiful.

SPEAKER_02 17:09

Thank you so so much. So it's yeah, it's I like I really like the way it came out and the fact that I can still then track all my payments, all my customers and everything in system.io with email campaign still. So it's really nice. Like if you click here, you can actually then see it, then goes back to system.io um on my let me just click here, it changes to system IO again and it comes back to the website.

SPEAKER_01 17:34

I saw I like the branding consistency. You're able to match like the colors and your logos to it.

Automating email tags to move buyers out of nurturing sequences

SPEAKER_02 17:42

Yeah, and that way I can also then get to see, you know, who buys and get to use the automations. So from the email opt-in to you know, customers, so I can tag them so they don't keep receiving my emails once they've actually purchased. I can send them a personal welcome email with my system.io affiliate link. So they, you know, like it's just all connected.

SPEAKER_01 18:03

That's wonderful. So you have a tag that I guess activates if this, then that, you know. So if they buy, they're not in your nurturing sequence anymore.

SPEAKER_02 18:13

Exactly. So they will then get a buyer's tag. So that they will then, if I have a new product or something else to promote, I will just or update. Like if there's, for instance, now I mean my tech expert just updated the um step-by-step list on how to set up your system.io account and how to clone my system. So I sent them an email yesterday just explaining, you know, and then I tag all the buyers so they will receive that update.

SPEAKER_01 18:40

Oh, this is so pretty. I love um show it's drag and drop um system, but I love how system.io can be everything you need it to be, or you can use the tools that are most efficient. And so let's talk about your um the back end. I'd so this is your clean, cleanest funnel, the most simple landing page, and then your main products. Um and then um when it comes to funnels and nurturing, I'd love to see anything, email marketing and any tags or stuff, um, or how you kind of uh help nurture people to other products.

SPEAKER_02 19:14

So this is probably can you see it by the way, my screen?

SPEAKER_01 19:19

Yes, I can. I can see nine campaigns.

Running a bilingual business: English and Norwegian campaigns

SPEAKER_02 19:22

Yes, it's probably a little bit overwhelming, but I'm primarily focusing on um like an English or an international, but in English, um, like an opt-in um email campaign, and also Norwegian. So I'm doing it, I actually have two sales pages, so one in English, one in Norwegian, and then hence also two email campaigns because I have my coaching, I have international coaching, I have Norwegian coaching, um, and then I also give away my email campaign that they can use, um, for example, to just edit. So that's why I also have some examples. But here, uh you can then see I have 18 that I give away.

SPEAKER_01 20:04

Uh okay, so those are the the ones you give away.

SPEAKER_02 20:07

No, so yeah, these are the ones I send, so we can look at some numbers. I guess it just probably needs to load a little bit. Um, and then afterwards I can also show you some newsletters that I sent. So uh this is just a test email. But here you can see I have it starts like did you ask for a free guide? And this is where I link my um my free beginner's guide.

SPEAKER_01 20:31

This is to system.io?

SPEAKER_02 20:34

Yeah, so this is all in systemio.

SPEAKER_01 20:37

Oh, I meant um, did you get the free guide? Uh I was wondering if this is where you nurture them with system.io, like an affiliate link to them.

SPEAKER_02 20:46

Sorry, one more time if I sorry.

SPEAKER_01 20:50

Um no, previously you mentioned that there's one email that you send out to people and it gives them like, hey, I use system.io, and you get a lot of affiliate commission from that one email. Is this the uh guide for that?

SPEAKER_02 21:03

No, so that's just one email, and that's my welcome email. So this is my pre-guide email list. So this is for anyone who opt in to my opt-in page. So that's just for them to then go to my sales page and then purchase. So

[Screen Share] Setting up a buyer email bundle workflow

SPEAKER_02 21:17

that's the email list. But if I go to workflows, sorry, um, go to here, you can see, for instance, I have a buyer's email bundle. If I go into that one, they will then receive my welcome email. And here I explain their system IO. So here you will need a free account with an MIO and a link to it. And also for those who have to bypass system IO, I also have stance stores and the second option. So this is a link here and then my affiliate link there.

SPEAKER_01 21:55

Love it. It's wonderful. Absolutely wonderful.

SPEAKER_02 22:00

Thank you. And then I just give all my resources here. So when they buy, they will then get this email, just explain how they get access and you know all my other digital products with it as well.

SPEAKER_01 22:13

Oh, absolutely amazing. Can you um so now we have system.io affiliates, we have your course affiliates, um, and you you're mentioning coaching a lot. Can you um pull back that veil a little bit? Like how do you coach the one-to-ones and um is it inside here? Do you sell that through system.io? I'd love to um see how you've scaled your business because, like you said, that's the more higher ticket item now. So, how is that helping your business grow?

SPEAKER_02 22:40

Yes,

Scaling to high-ticket 1-on-1 coaching and mentorship

SPEAKER_02 22:41

I started and because I want them to have that ticket in first, which is the course, and for them to go through the course in their own time, in their own pace to learn digital marketing. And then for the people who are really serious that would like to take it to the next level, I offer one-to-one coaching. So I sell my coaching program as well. I have a own uh landing page for it in Systemio, and then I charge um more because it's you know like one-to-one, and I sit down um once every two weeks. We have an hour where I then analyze their social media, their like I help them optimize their funnels. We could just go through to see what can move the needle and how they can turn followers into customers and how they can do also um digital marketing in a way that they can either um quit their nine to five, or some people really like their job, but they just like to, you know, maybe work 50% instead of full-time. So just really whatever needs they have, I help them achieve that through one-to-one coaching. So I offer three sessions or six sessions, and some people even have 10 sessions. So really depends on their goals and needs.

SPEAKER_01 23:53

Okay, so there's a vetting process here, you know, you're gonna make sure, hey, you bought the course, you're doing the work. Now let's optimize it, and you help them with, you know, just enough sessions to get to that next level. That's wonderful. Exactly.

SPEAKER_02 24:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 24:08

Oh that is so awesome. Is there anything else you'd like to show the audience, um, the listeners today for inside of your system.io?

SPEAKER_02 24:17

I'm trying to think, like, um, can you see it now?

SPEAKER_01 24:22

This is coming. There it is. Yep. I see the the back end, the dashboard.

SPEAKER_02 24:27

Exactly. So this is a done for you funnel that I give away to my customers so they can use it and it's simplified the process for them because it's already done the opt-in page, the sales page, order form, the thank you page that they get that their customers will get after the purchase has gone through. So, in terms of the opt-in page, it looks like this. So I just said like insert your photo here, you know, like put your story, and it will already then be connected to the guide.

SPEAKER_01 24:58

It's not showing that. Oh, there it is.

SPEAKER_02 24:59

Ah, there it is. Yes, sorry. So here you can see that you just put in your photo, and it's a text where you put your story in here. So it's really done for them, they just need to, you know, make these small edits themselves. Uh and then also uh here, if I go to the sales page, click edit page again. This is already done for them. So here include your video, uh again your story, your photo. So I just want them to speed up the process because I spent a bit of time trying to do all of this myself, and now instead this is done for them, and whatever changes they want, they can just add it, but at least they have a plug-and-play template to use.

SPEAKER_01 25:53

I love it. Yeah, it really helps take out the overwhelm of having to start everything from scratch. Why it's so important to have someone like you, a mentor, a tutor who can walk them through getting started and really, you know, creating that financial freedom if they can get this going, right?

SPEAKER_02 26:09

Yeah, like the whole reason why I started this is because I want to help people in the same situation and I know how it is to be burnt out. So I thought to myself, like, there needs to be another way. And once I saw that it was actually working for me as well, I just really wanted to share this so that people who were in a similar situation know that there are other ways to make money than being, you know, in a nine to five job. So it's really been amazing to see also the ripple effect of one person starting. Like for me, it was um that person in Brazil, or she's based in the US, but she's Brazilian. And then the fact that I can do this now from Norway. So, like the social media and sharing, and it's just it's really amazing to see uh how many lives have been changed because of this one person taking action.

SPEAKER_01 26:56

That is wonderful. So I love how you were leaning into that that piece at the end of like you did this not because of any like I just want to make more money. It was I need something better for my life right now, the burnout, the overwhelm, and and so many other people, you know, chasing that rat race of nine to five. What are the biggest transformations that you have seen by you know, promoting this material, not just as a you know, I'm selling a course. It's more than that. At least that's what it looks like to me.

SPEAKER_02 27:29

It

Helping a student make $15,000 in her very first month

SPEAKER_02 27:30

is, and the fact that, you know, I only had a $40 month my first month, but one of my students had a 15,000 first month, and I was like, that's incredible. So she obviously was able to quit her work. She worked as a healthcare um, like within the healthcare system, and like it's such an important job, but for a lot of people it requires so much, right? Because it's the long hours, it's training for so if you're not fulfilled where you are, then you know it's better to be fulfilled somewhere else because life is too short. So the fact that she's able now to live her best life, and she was in Miami and she was just traveling, and um, and other people as well, like uh a lot of moms, for instance, able to be more present with their children, to be able to, you know, pick up and deliver in nursery, and they get to just have that quiet time as well with their kids. And I think whatever's like wherever you are in life, the fact that you get to have the money gives you the freedom and you get to decide what you want to do with that freedom. I think that's you know, like so so important in a life that is so fast-paced, and where um where mental health sometimes gets in a second row, you know, like you're you kind of are not able to always prioritize it, but the fact that yeah, this is an opportunity that everyone can part.

SPEAKER_01 28:48

Like you said, that transformation for a lot of the moms being able to stay home. What would you say is the biggest gift that this digital entrepreneurship has given you?

SPEAKER_02 28:59

For me, it's for sure the freedom. Like there has been a lot of nice things with the designer bags, the new Mercedes, like all of these flashy things, but it all comes down to the fact that I get to decide when I want to wake up and what I want to do that day. So to be able to prioritize for mental health and physical health as well, right? Because if you're if that doesn't work, then it doesn't matter how much money you have in your bank account. So for me, uh being able to also give back to my family. So I'm from a um like my entire family are teachers, so both my parents, also my sister uh are teachers. So my parents have now retired, but I was able to, you know, help support uh with bills, taking them on holiday, um, yeah, just being in a position where I can give back. So that's been really, really nice. And also um to,

Working 3 hours a day while seeing the world

SPEAKER_02 29:51

you know, like live the life that my younger self always dreamed of. I like I feel like my younger self is like, oh my gosh, we get to travel the world. Like in the last two years, I've traveled every single month and I've seen everything from Singapore to US to just being able to, and also I feel the fact that I don't have kids, right? So I have the freedom to just get up and and travel whenever. But I don't say that you don't have that freedom if you have family, but it's easier to do it every single month rather than having to plan for a whole team to get together.

SPEAKER_01 30:22

Yeah, because you can take your work with you, even if you're traveling, you're still working. Like, what do you think your hours are? I'm sure they fluctuate, but like if you had to put a rough estimate on how often you work now.

SPEAKER_02 30:33

So I do work on average like three hours a day, but I would say some days I could work six hours and some days I don't work at all. So it like it just depends how much I have to do. And then now I would say I'll probably work a bit more because I started with the coaching. So obviously, then my coaching clients, I do that a lot of prepping because I want to make sure I deliver the best of my capabilities. So I sit quite a lot of hours just to prepare for the materials, to analyze their content, use AI. Just um, so now, like when I was only focusing on digital marketing, affiliated marketing, two to three hours, now it's probably more three to four.

SPEAKER_01 31:12

Okay. Wow, yeah, and and even three to four or even six, you know, like my husband, you know, was pulling 12 and 14 hours as a you know, working in manufacturing. So um having a three to four workday for him to be able to change our lives, like that would be amazing, or even if I could do that. So if someone is listening right now, you know, what would you say to them? Like, do they need that digital course or is system.io enough for them to maybe start their own journey? Like, what would you say to them? Like how they, you know, to pull them in to change their lives.

SPEAKER_02 31:45

Like a good saying for me has been like, nothing changes if nothing changes. So, and also like this has been a call, like the fact I knew that was meant for something bigger. And I this quote is a bit like, I don't know, but I for me it resonates because it says, like, if that's your calling and you don't pick up, then it's gonna keep on calling. So I was waiting like two months and I didn't take action, and then I was like, you know what? No, I have nothing to lose by giving this a go. So I would recommend you start with a digital marketing course first because here you will learn multiple income streams. So maybe, for instance, reselling a course is not your thing. Maybe instead user-generated content would be better, which is when you create content for a company and you don't need to post a social media, so you don't need to show your face on your own platform. You can just show like uh how this uh vacuum cleaner works and you put it together and you send in a video to Dyson or wherever,

Why the email list is the key to 90% of your sales

SPEAKER_02 32:42

right? So there's so many ways that you can make money online, and this course that I promote it shows 10 different income streams. So I would recommend starting with a uh course and then as well build that system in systemio where you get your digital store, you get your email list, because 90% of people are just gonna scroll when they see something on social media. That's why it's so important with an email list because you can retarget people. So it really works for you even when you're not working.

SPEAKER_01 33:11

Exactly. That's why having like what you have a system with automations and you really help and nurture the people who come to you. And um, there's you know, and I I think also buying a course if you have absolutely no knowledge sounds awesome. So um,

Describing systeme.io as a "Game Changer"

SPEAKER_01 33:27

if you could describe system.io in one word, how would you describe it?

SPEAKER_02 33:35

That's a good one. Uh no, they're like words. Yeah, I was like one word, uh because for me it's a game changer, the fact that it works on autopilot. So even as I mentioned, like I could have days off, or I can be on holiday and I will still get sales because someone saw email number 14, you know. So yeah, really great for someone you're really great for the system. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:06

So if someone has been listening and they are all in, they're like, I want to do what you're doing, and I love the idea that there's a helping tool, like your course, how can they connect with you after TikTok, social media, like where can they find you?

SPEAKER_02 34:21

So I'm most active on Instagram where my handle is your.marketing BFF. And the only thing is that my Instagram account is down at the moment. So I'm just really hoping by the time this episode is um showing that my account is back again, because then you can see uh the main one. So I have the one with over 400,000 followers. I just want to be transparent because there is some impersonators account as well. But at the moment, I should have over 400,000 followers on that one, so you can send me a DM or same thing on TikTok. Um, you can go to your dot marketing BFF and you will see me there, and you can send me a direct message.

SPEAKER_01 35:01

That's awesome. And so we'll have um your website linked down below as well. It's Amalia. Can you pronounce it again? I didn't say it enough. What's your website again for them to find you?

SPEAKER_02 35:13

It's it's amalyalin.com in one word.

SPEAKER_01 35:17

Oh, I did say it. Good.

SPEAKER_02 35:19

Gold starts.

SPEAKER_01 35:22

It was so nice sitting with you and talking with you today. I know I got a lot of golden nuggets. Um, and hopefully uh you were able to share everything on your heart for system.io and what it's done for you.

SPEAKER_02 35:33

Yeah, really, really appreciate this. So thank you for having me. And it was lovely meeting you. And yeah, everyone can send me a message to connect. I'll be happy uh to help.

SPEAKER_01 35:44
