Hey !

Liz Tomey here from LizTomey.com and it seems for the last two years (especially this last year) I've been in non-stop technology hell. 🔥

Changes in technology, tools no longer working, solutions no longer meeting needs, and the list goes on and on.

It's A LOT!

Right now, I...

1. Use Optimize Press to build all of my marketing pages. I've been using them for YEARS. Currently zero issues with it. Still my #1 recommendation! http://www.LizTomey.com/OptimizePress 

2. Use WarriorPlus as a marketplace to sell my products and manage my affiliates. It's not the best solution, but it works. It's the best solution to automate paying affiliates, customers being able to purchase and having access to their purchase instantly, etc.

3. Use Stripe to process payments. LOVE IT!

4. Use Aweber to manage my email list and my email marketing. Aweber integrates with WarriorPlus so all customers are added to the email list attached to the product they buy. This is done via API between Aweber and WarriorPlus.

Now Aweber is raising their prices and limiting how many emails you can send each month. So, you're charging me MORE and giving me LESS? 🤔

Side Note: Talked with their customer support which is always AWESOME and my pricing isn’t going up an insane amount. But still I need a better solution.

5. Use ProductDyno for product delivery. I implemented this last year and I'm about 90% happy with it.

However, the way it shows all of my products and customer purchases all mixed together on one page is something I HATE and some of my customers do too. This is a deal breaker for me, and I see no signs of them doing anything about it. It would not be hard to have a page for products you've bought and a page for products you have not bought. But even with people requesting this, ProductDyno just isn't providing a solution for this.

So, 4 and 5 are the issues...

Now I'm at a crossroads! 

Do I...

1. Go for an all-in-one solution like Kajabi. ThiveCart was in the running until I saw all the problems people (and their customers) have with it. I'm a part of their Facebook group and see the issues and I won’t build my business on such an unstable foundation.

2. Just use a different autoresponder that integrates with WarriorPlus. ConvertKit is what I would probably use, but ActiveCampaign is also on my radar because of a very reliable source recommending it. If I did this though it would still leave me with needing a solution for product delivery because ProductDyno isn't the right fit for me.

3. Leave everything as is and add another piece into the puzzle and have an email server of my own. This one sounds good in theory, but also scares me because there's a lot of work that goes into this.

Basically, I would take all of the current subscribers I have and put them on my own personal email server. I could leave everything as is and just download leads from wherever they come in from and upload them onto my own server. An extra step, but I’d always have a way to contact all of my subscribers.

So, we are once again going through what I call... "The Stack Juggle". Juggling all of these pieces of the "stack" that runs my business.

No matter what big changes are coming, so it's going to be important that you pay attention to your emails so we don't lose touch. 😢

For now though (even though it feels like the house is on fire) everything is fine...

You can still buy from me, access your purchases all in one place, and I'm always just an email away. So, if you run into a burning door, just email me and I'll get you safely outside... Meaning if anything goes wrong, I'll help you if you just email me. 😂

And I have an exciting update…

The Team Tomey Elite Coaching Club is almost ready! I will be opening it up for 30 initial founding members at a super-duper low price. What we just talked about in this email is just ONE example of the deep dive of topics we will be covering in this coaching club.

My goal for this coaching club is to give you a place where you can come with all of your online business problems (and triumphs) and get all the help you need to get through them.

More about that later though… 😉

For now if there is anything I can help you with or if you have any questions just reply back to this email!

Talk soon! 😘

Liz
