ADVICE

Sell Before You Build

  • Don’t build a product then hope people buy it; sell first and build with your audience using their feedback.
  • Use Facebook group membership questions to collect the exact problems people want solved before creating your product.
ANECDOTE

5M Followers, 77 Course Sales

  • Alejandro recounts a client with 5 million followers who spent money building a course and sold only 77 copies at $99.
  • The story warns against creating products without validating real audience demand first.
ADVICE

Use 'Thinking' To Test Interest

  • Test interest by phrasing offers tentatively: say "I'm thinking of hosting..." to invite low-risk responses and gather social proof.
  • Use comments to create FOMO and refine your event based on what people say they want.
