“AAAAU”
“What the fuck” Mariska screamed.
I didn’t know what hit me. I was checking my phone while walking alongside a rice field with Bumi and Mariska.
We love our little morning routine. But little did I know a few seconds later, disaster would hit me.
I stepped into a hole, a deep one.
You might think, what’s a hole doing in the middle of the ricefield?
Let me share some Bali agricultural insides.
I know you’re dying to know. The holes alongside the rice fields are part of the irrigation system.
End of lesson.
At first, there was no problem. But after a while, my ankle started to hurt badly. It’s OK now, but I guess the lessons of these months are:
Don’t walk while you check your phone, and avoid scorpions.
Doing two things at a time will always end badly.
And that leads me to today’s topic.
Can a course hurt your flagship offer?
Let’s say you run a gym. And you offer a stretching course. Some might buy your courses instead of your gym membership.
Because in their cheap minds, they might believe that a stretching course will help them lose weight. Some clients are weird, I know.
So the answer is: Yes, a course can cannibalise your main offer.
But…
That’s NOT a bad thing.
When you’re a frequent reader of my letter, you know that I always promote to sell a lot. When you don’t offer a solution, somebody else will.
And at the end of the day, the more offers, the more sales you make.
When you have questions, just email me. ( And I’ll get back to you with the speed of light. Because now I’m known as The Limping Scorpion Man.)
I am looking forward to talking to you tomorrow.
