Yaro’s Backstory
Yaro discovered blogging in 2004, after someone suggested he start a blog for his editing company. While many bloggers were spending a lot of time writing content, Yaro knew of people who generated $30,000 using emails.
To avoid becoming one of those bloggers who was trapped writing 20 posts a day, and to automate the sales process for his course, Yaro built what he now calls a blog sales funnel.
He set up a series of blog posts to go to his email newsletter once a week for 52 weeks. Then, at intervals throughout the email delivery process, he would include a sales message for his course. Yaro notes that it took him six months to write the year’s worth of messages, so he recommends starting smaller.
He’s spent the last few years building and perfecting his process.
