#275 - End of Year Planning: The Simple Audit That Shows You What's Actually Working

Hey there! I'm Kate from Hello Funnels, and welcome to Part 3 of our End of Year Planning Series.If you're either drowning in data or hiding from your numbers completely, this episode is for you.There are two types of business owners: the ones who track everything and get overwhelmed by all the data, and the ones who avoid the numbers entirely because they're confusing or scary.Neither approach is going to get you very far.Today, I'm breaking down the only 3 money metrics you actually need to track in 2026. These are the numbers that will actually help you grow—and make every decision simpler and faster.I'll show you how to set a real revenue goal (not an ego-based one), how to reverse engineer your weekly targets, and how to use these three numbers to know exactly which lever to pull when you're off track.When you know the three money metrics you need to hit each week, you stop guessing and start growing. And you make hitting your revenue goal feel inevitable.Need help figuring out your numbers? DM us @hellofunnels on Instagram.Part 4 drops next—the final episode of the series. Don't miss it!

Hey there! I'm Kate from Hello Funnels, and welcome to Part 2 of our End of Year Planning Series.If you've ever been told to "just focus on one thing until you hit a million dollars," you've probably also realized that advice doesn't quite work in today's market.Because the truth is, modern businesses need more than one thing working. But not 100 things. Just six.In this episode, I'm breaking down the 6-Step Scaling System—what you actually need to build in 2026 to scale profitably without spreading yourself too thin or burning out.I'll walk you through how to choose your six based on your Traffic Light Audit from Part 1, whether you should start with your front-end or back-end (it depends on if you have an audience), and the realistic timeline for building this out.Bottom line: The businesses that thrive in 2026 will have both a front-end system that covers ad costs and a back-end system that delivers profit. You can't build them at once—but you can build them both.Want help building your 6-Step Scaling System? This is exactly what we teach inside the 100K Club.

Hey there! I'm Kate from Hello Funnels, and in this episode of The Doing It Online podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on my AI-powered content system—the one that lets me create all my content for the month in about 25 minutes a week.Here's the problem: the amount of content we're expected to create now is completely out of control. Emails, Instagram, LinkedIn, podcasts, YouTube, blog posts—it's exhausting.And even when people are batching and staying organized, it all ends up feeling disconnected. Which means you're confusing your audience instead of guiding them on a journey.So I built a system that fixes this. An AI system that helps me create cohesive, strategic, high-converting content—fast. And it sounds like me.Today, I'm walking you through exactly how it works, step by step.The truth? I've been using this for a couple of months now, and our conversions have gone through the roof. It's not just easier and faster—it actually works better.And because I wouldn't be me if I didn't share something this game-changing, I turned it into a mini-course called Cash Money Content.Right now, it's on a special pre-launch offer—normally $197, you can grab it for just $47.Grab it before the price goes up!This is going to change the way you create content. I can't wait to see what you do with it.

Hey there! I'm Kate from Hello Funnels, and in this episode of The Doing It Online podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on low-ticket offers—when they work, when they don't, and why so many course creators are stuck spinning their wheels trying to build a business around them.When the economy gets shaky and people stop buying, a low-ticket offer feels like the answer. But here's what most people don't realize: low-ticket offers are just as much work as high-ticket offers. And they're usually way less profitable.So today, I'm breaking down exactly when low-ticket offers make sense (there are four specific scenarios), and when they're actually sabotaging your growth.I'm also calling out the Maria Wendt model that everyone's trying to replicate—and why it's not going to work for you the way you think it will.Bottom line: Low-ticket offers aren't the problem. Trying to build your entire business around them without a backend? That's the problem.Want the exact framework for setting up a low-ticket funnel the RIGHT way?👉 Grab the Million Dollar Micro Funnel system and save $100 off.

Hey there! I'm Kate from Hello Funnels, and in this episode of The Doing It Online podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on something that's going to change how you think about funnels forever.I just spent the last six months in deep testing mode—running every possible combination, split-testing ad creative, analyzing conversion data across thousands of funnel visitors.And here's what I discovered: buyer behavior has fundamentally changed.Most sales now happen within the first 1-5 days. Not weeks. Days.If someone doesn't buy from you in that initial window, the chances they'll buy later drop dramatically.Which means if you're still running old-school "long nurture" funnels, you're leaving money on the table.In this episode, I'm sharing the real data, including a hot seat call with a client whose funnel is converting at 9% (more than 4X the industry benchmark) with an average purchase time of less than 24 hours.I'll walk you through why this is happening, what it means for your funnel strategy, and exactly what needs to change if you want your funnels to actually work in today's market.This is the shift that separates funnels that flop from funnels that scale.Let's dive in!Ready to build a funnel designed for today's buyers?Learn more about the Million Dollar Micro Funnel system—the exact framework my clients are using to get 9% conversion rates and sales within 24 hours.👉 Click here and save $100 OFF right now
