​
Hi Reader,
​
So the countdown is on for BC Stack which is ending in a few hours.
​
I'll be honest. The zillion posts about BC Stack in my inbox over the last week has been kinda wild. Do I really need more than one email within a couple hours from the same person telling me today is the last day? I've already got more than three emails from just one person today. Wow. 🤣
​
Multiply that by all the jockeying to add bonus upon bonus in the hopes of luring you into their web to make a sale? Well, it's kinda icky if you ask me.
​
That's the ugly side of BC Stack. And really, when there's people offering CrAzEeeeeee bonuses worth up to a thousand dollars? 🙄
​
Well, yes, that's a little crazy. I agree. But not for the reasons they're stating.
​
It's crazy to think that offering a bunch of coloring packs or PLR that will literally sit on your hard drive is of value. Of course, if these products aren't like any of the other PLR you may have accumulated over the years - and you'll actually use it - then it's a wise choice. As long as you use it.​
​
Even if someone were to offer you 10,000 worth of bonuses, is it worth it if you're not going to use it or take action?
​
There's $7k worth of value in the 65 courses inside BC Stack that ends after today, but if there aren't a couple that light you up and get you excited? There's no value in that and I wouldn't recommend buying it.
​
Of course, if there's a bonus so amazing it's worth it just for that? Go for it. And I've heard of people buying more than one copy of BC Stack just to get access to a few contributor's bonuses.
​
So if the bonus is more interesting than the bundle, that's fair.
​
A few years ago, I bought BC Stack from one contributor - and I went to the many workshops they offered as a bonus. The workshops were useful, but I didn't do anything with that information though. I just wasted four weekends accumulating info I never did anything with. 🤣
​
So remember - while you bundle shop (because let's face it, most people are still waiting to decide) if you're tempted by the sheer amount offered in a bonus - ask yourself if this is something you need right now, something you'll actually use - but will it help you take action and move your business forward?
​
That's the key right there.
​
If you do have an audience and want to share, it's not too late to sign up as an affiliate as 80% of sales come on the last day. You might not think it's worth it, but even if you know one person who could benefit from this bundle, friends, family members, it might be worth spreading the word.

And if you're worried about trying to compete with other people promoting BC Stack. Don't.

Last year Dan told me the following:
​​
"Don't worry about other people's bonuses. There are so many bonuses out there I don't care about at all. $400 in XXXXXX is not useful to me for instance.
​
You can compete for sure. Bigger is not always better."​
​
Remember that. Bigger is not always better.
​
That said, if you're still not sure, cruise on over to the page and check out the content to see everything you'll get.
​
And if you've decided you're going to be picking up the bundle, I wouldn't wait until the absolute bitter end to buy. There's a lot of people with the same idea so the site could go down or something could glitch.

✨ BONUS 1: If you buy BC Stack using my link, I'll give you a $49 coupon to use in my shop - making your bundle free. I've added a couple of things but new additions (including trainings and courses) coming soon!

✨✨ BONUS 2: I'm also offering a half day of Voxer. (2 hours - Valued at $150)
​
✨✨✨ BONUS 3: I'm also going to offer two follow up email sessions instead of one - so that's an incredible added bonus in and of itself as you'll be able to get feedback and advice on anything you need eyes on after our session! (If you prefer to just do straight email coaching instead of Voxer, I'll bump up the email sessions to 4 instead of 2.)
​
✨✨✨✨ BONUS 4: As an added bonus, I'm going to give you access to my brand new course Pages Palooza. This course teaches you how to create simple, stunning sales pages and tripwires. No website, no hosting, and absolutely no WordPress required. Perfect for non-techy creators who want fast, beautiful results without the overwhelm.

I built the sales page for it using an entirely free tool. It was easy and if you're not tech savvy like me, then you'll want to learn how to do this quick and simple - and best of all - FREE.
​
Also, if I do get that bump offer up and you've purchased BC Stack through me (this year or last) don't add this to the cart as I'll be giving you access when it's ready.

✨✨✨✨ BONUS 5: I offered this as a time sensitive bonus, but since I was having deliverability issues, I took the time limit off and doubled the coupon value in my shop to $100!
​
If you bought from me last year, I sent you an email but if you didn't receive it, please send me a reply.

NEW: SUMO DAY IS BACK

Starting tomorrow, June 9th Sumo Day, AppSumo’s biggest sale of the season, is back and there's some amazing lifetime tools to be had. Plus they're also offering an extra 10% off all of their Sumo Day deals.
​
This is AppSumo's biggest sale where they bring back crowd favorite tools, launch brand new products, and offer a site-wide discount for the entire event.

And even better, this Sumo Day, they're giving five lucky winners lifetime access to one of these powerhouse tools: ChatGPT Plus, Zapier, YouTube Premium, Gamma, or Beehiiv!
​
I've included all the ones that I think are worth a look below, but found a few others that I forgot to add last time:
​
• BreezeDoc - A super affordable alternative to Docusign, BreezeDoc is the simplest solution for contractors, freelancers, and small businesses to execute documents quickly and easily.

• PhotoGPT AI - Create realistic, studio-quality AI headshots from selfies—no expensive photoshoots required.
​
Be sure you take a look at SheetAny! This is for anyone fed up with high fees on Shopify/Etsy or don't know how to use Wordpress. This one is a winner!
​
This is very much the same type of software that the tool I've been using since last Fall (Spreadsimple) runs on. However, that platform has been off Appsumo for quite some time now, so you can only pay monthly. SheetAny is a one-time lifetime price starting at $39! And the templates look so much more versatile than Spreadsimple!
​
Basically, if you have software like Thrivecart, you know you can't easily showcase all your products in one place. This gives you the option to do that as you can see on my Shop page. You can also use this software to build affiliate pages, a course hub - anything you can think of!
​
I bought this lightning fast and am still playing with it, so I urge you to check it out and do the same.
​
​Check out Sheetany here.
​
There's also another amazing deal on Appsumo right now called Encharge which gives you lifetime access to an email service provider that links with Thrivecart (see you later Zapier!) which is only available for a couple more days.
​
This is one of those "unicorn deals" that haunts people when they realized they missed it, so grab this one while you can because there's lots of buzz on this one.

There's three tiers you can choose from. My recommendation? If you think you'll be growing your list in the next couple of years, get the highest tier you can afford. You can always downgrade (or refund after you've tried it.)
​
​Check out Encharge here.

Here are some others I highly recommend which are time tested and available during the sale!
​
• TidyCal - This is an incredible way to manage your calendar easily with integrations, custom email reminders, auto-created meeting URLs, and more. You can create both free and paid booking options with custom booking pages that sync to your calendar.

• Switchy - If you don't want to pay monthly fees for Pretty Links, make sure you grab Switchy for the one-time price of only $39! Shorten, customize, and track your links to boost social media engagement, plus create advanced bio links for social media.

• FlipBooklets: Convert your PDFs into beautiful PDF FlipBooks in seconds -- simply upload & publish.

• Headway - This is a very cool app that offers thousands of actionable insights and tips. It gives you a summary of 15-minute reads of the best books and ideas in a nutshell based on your goals & needs to solve your specific goals. It will also make sure you're always armed with the best book ideas, bite-sized learning for fun and easy growth, and essential knowledge to crush your goals.
​
Over ​12 million users​ are currently using Headway and receive the following:

• Nonfiction bestsellers summarized in 15-minute reads

This promotion will only be available from June 8th until June 12th at 4 pm CST or June 12th at 12 pm CST if you're a Plus member.
​
My tip? If you like the way something sounds and there's a super high taco rating, grab it! All their deals are covered by a 60 day money back guarantee, so scoop up everything you want now - try for 2 months and if it doesn't work for you, you can easily return. No questions asked.
​
Just make sure you put a reminder in your calendar as 60 days sneaks up fast!

FAIRY FUN!
​
​Katherine's is back with her newest kit in her Limitless Design Kits Monthly Membership
​
This month, it's the Fairytale Design Kit!
​
Step into a world of wonder with this new Fairytale Design Kit! This kit is a whimsical collection of enchanting elements, designed to bring the charm and mystery of a fairytale adventure to life. Create your own happily-ever-after with these classic children's storybook motifs. Every element has been designed to make your projects as enchanting and timeless as the stories themselves!
​
With all the latest concerns over copyright, usage rights, and outsourcing art from questionable sources, a few members have asked if she makes the graphics in her kits. The answer is YES, she personally illustrates/draws/paints the graphics.
​
All of her personal hand-drawn or painted illustrations and high-resolution elements can be used to create PLR, digital products, physical products, and TEMPLATES (to name a few) which is MUCH MORE than any typical commercial use license.

Along with the individual elements, she's also included a few different types of graphics to help you create scenes.
​
These design kits are only available for one month inside the membership so you have until the 14th to pick these up. Katherine will then be offering them for sale at the current regular price of $97.
​
You'll automatically receive $482 worth of bonuses that come with MRR rights, meaning you can turn these kits around and not only sell them commercially, but as PLR without restrictions!
​
MRR or master resell rights means you can sell these items commercially to others who can also sell them commercially. Normally, with PLR, you can sell them to others for personal use only.
​
This means you can use these products to create your very own PLR. It's also perfect if you've been wanting to get into a bundle but don't have a creative bone in your body and aren't sure what you would be able to offer with PLR rights - now you'll be able to thanks to Katherine's gorgeous resources.
​
Best of all, you can use these elements without fear of infringing on someone's license, which is much more generous than a standard commercial use license, and use them for to create PLR digital products, physical products, and templates (to name a few) - and yes, even stickers!

Check out everything you get on the sales page. This kit will be available at the discounted price of $27 until May 14th.

✨BONUS - If you purchase Katherine's kit, I'll give you give you 50% of your purchase back in Lara Loot which you can use on my shop page with no expiry.
