Q&A: How do I prioritize next steps for a series of planners?

Notes from Chris

Episode 1112

Today’s listener is already doing a lot of things right. She’s designed and printed a series of planners for new moms struggling with postpartum depression. With this specific product and a clear target market ... she’s wondering what comes next? How can she reach that target market with her product?

You could do so many things, but our challenge in this world of unlimited choice is that you can’t do everything. That’s why having a plan is not just valuable, it’s critical.

My side hustle is a line of wellness planners for moms. I originally created versions of these planners to help myself with postpartum depression and anxiety, and I hope to help other women as well.

My question is about how to best prioritize my next steps. I have products, website, and an Etsy account. I have a story in my head that I need to build up Instagram followers before reaching out to influencers, and I’m curious about your thoughts.

Also, am I right in thinking that cold emails are the best way to connect with potential sales avenues? … How do you effectively cold email without sounding like an annoying salesperson?
