Mark’s answer to the $500 question
I would identify a problem that people are having and create 3 solutions to the problem. Then, I would create a lead magnet to get opt-in’s to build my list. My lead magnet would be a video describing my high value product, which I’d offer for free for a limited time – (in exchange for people’s name and email).
I would then go to LeadPages.net and invest $67 towards a one-month, unlimited access membership to test ads and conversion pages on Facebook.
Next, I would use $50 a day to promote targeted Facebook ads, and as I built my list, I would continue to offer high value content at little to no cost, with the end result ultimately being to sell people on a killer product or service that will offer a major benefit or solution to a problem their currently having.
And with my remaining $83 I would get a Spanish Latte at Urth Café in Santa Monica and donate the rest to educational charity.
