Their store is www.deliciouslyguiltfree.comThis store is getting a MINIMUM 6% conversion rate and up to a 16% conversion rate! This is NOT normal but today I will prove it's VERY possible even with ZERO knowledge.Dan and Basma Greef came to me about 1 year ago. Starting out. Not making money but VERY passionate. I have had a few calls with them and each time they have taken my advice and blown my mind with how they are able to implement and make a success of their business. It’s so easy for me to provide advice. I do it all day. But not many are out there DOING IT and make a success of their business. It’s funny how many people will pay me, not do the work then wonder why they are not succeeding. Let’s discuss...What made you decide to make low sugar, keto/low carb cakes?How and what have you since learnt about low carb?What are the challenges of running an e-commerce store?What are the highs and lows of running your own business?Why are getting such high conversion rates?Basma and yourself have realised that there is a lot more to this than just trying to sellOffline store V’s online businessThe fear factor… Price sellingBuilding loyalty How important is it that you are more than just trying to sell a “product” You are doing things differently by building a community. “Serving” not "Shouting at people "How many hours a week do you put into this business
