Come Hang Out Backstage! My New Platform (and the First-Ever Q&A) | #Marketing - Ep. 136

I have millions of followers across every platform… and when I go live, maybe 150 people actually see it. Back in the Periscope days, I’d hit “go live” and five or six thousand people would show up instantly, and we’d just hang out — that’s how I really built this community. Then the algorithms changed and quietly took that away. So I built my own way around it. I’m recording this from Bear Lake on our family reunion, and I want to pull back the curtain on something new I built called Backstage Pass — a platform where you follow me, and the second I go live you get pinged and we hang out, no algorithm in the middle. To show you what it’s like, I’m sharing the very first Backstage Pass Q&A, where I answered real questions from real people about offers, pricing, high-ticket, and AI. Think of it as coming backstage after the show to just ask me anything. Key Highlights: ◼️How to pick an offer when you’re scared to commit — why your offer isn’t “till death do us part,” and how to test one that won’t handcuff you (plus Eileen Wilder’s brilliant two-day-event model) ◼️Why you should put out offers even when they might bomb — I’ve had several flop this year and you’d never know, because nobody is watching as closely as you think ◼️The real difference between low, mid, and high ticket — it’s not new frameworks, it’s the experience (the airplane-seat analogy), with Brooke Castillo’s “Model” as the case study: one idea sold as a free podcast, a $300-a-month membership, and an $18K certification ◼️The introvert’s secret to “introducing yourself” online — stop walking up to people; do such cool work that they come to you ◼️Straight answers on what’s next — Overskill, AI Secrets, the Offer Secrets book, and why Funnel Hacking Live AI is the last time we’ll ever do anything like it Here’s the bigger idea underneath all of this: the platforms you rent attention on can change the rules any time they want — and most creators just accept it. The move is to build a direct line to your own people, the thousand true fans who actually want to hear from you. That’s exactly why I built Backstage Pass. And it’s the same question I’d put to you about your own business: if the algorithm shut you off tomorrow, could you still reach the people who matter most… or are you building on land you don’t own? ◼️BACKSTAGE PASS: Russell built his own live platform so he can hang out with his audience without fighting the algorithm — follow him, keep notifications on, and the moment he goes live for a Q&A, you’re in the room.
