Having undergone her own lifestyle transformation, Joanne Parker became increasingly frustrated by the smoke and mirrors and glossy facade of the fitness and weight loss industry.

So, while working full time as an academic, Joanne built a part time fitness and wellness coaching business over 6 years, before finally taking the plunge in the middle of the pandemic to follow her true passion.

"I set out to empower and educate women that you CAN lead a healthy lifestyle without burpees and diets".

Joanne is now a full-time women’s nutrition & fitness coach – specialising in all chapters of life – from pre-natal care through to menopause, and she is committed to helping midlife women realise that they have 20.. 30.. 40.. years to keep chasing their dreams and living their healthiest life.

“Having taken the leap to go full time into my business – I knew that I was going to need help to take my business from where it was to where I wanted to. Because my part time business needed to be successful and profitable enough to support me as my only income."

"I knew I needed a clear plan / direction for my offers & services, clearer messaging, funnels that ran on rinse and repeat, and the accountability and support to stay on the right path [I have so many ideas and grand visions from clothing to retreats and adventures ...] I needed a plan to achieve and do it all without getting distracted."

THE FIRST 6 MONTHS

Niche & Service Offering

When Joanne started with The Elevatory, our first task was to review her niche and get clear on where the opportunities lay within her marketplace.

Following this we went on to refine her service offering to ensure it was a match for target audience. This meant culling some programs / offers and focusing more heavily on others. It also meant merging 2 businesses to give her a stronger overall positioning.

Branding & Website Overhaul

Once we were clearer on her direction it was time to tackle the copy across the whole of her website and head into a rebrand.

Joanne wanted a website that matched her personality and that truly spoke to her target audience.

She worked with Anna to revamp her copy sitewide and was then connected with one of our brand partners to work on the look and feel of the site.

Joanne then worked with Anna and Jo [Head of Optimisation] to ensure the website user experience was intuitive and fully optimised.

Social Media          

During the rebrand Joanne worked with The Elevatory’s Social Media Coach Vikki to map out her new look and feel socials.

Joanne’s Instagram account has since grown over 10%. And her Facebook page has grown over 25% after sitting on 900 for at least a year!

Alongside this Joanne consolidated facebook groups and 2 social pages – and her focus has improved and is reaping engagement rewards.

Sales Funnels

With most service businesses the goal is to create a series of rinse and repeat funnels that you can turn on and off as you need leads / clients.

So together we mapped out and launched a series of different funnels for each of Joanne’s service offerings:

1. 1. 1. A phone funnel – for driving leads into her high-ticket coaching
      2. A messenger funnel – for driving leads into her in-person group fitness program
      3. A 21-day challenge funnel with upsell – to support her online program and high-ticket coaching

We then went on to map out a paid and organic marketing strategy to drive leads into each funnel.

Facebook Ads

Facebook ads were one of the main paid traffic drivers to these funnels.

Joanne had been using FB ads previously but relished in having help from Caroline and Zoe [our ads coaches] to review copy and images / set up.

Furthermore, as she worked with the team, she was taught to better understand her analytics so she could make better decisions!

“I’ve been forced to slow down and evaluate / analyse my data to optimise results. This program has helped me tweak and refine and do again - learn what to keep doing and what to stop doing. And means my ads are more effective”.

RESULTS

Over 2 weeks Joanne was able to fill her fitness classes:

‘Local Facebook ads resulted in 10 new leads for my fitness classes with 9 converting - which in the middle of an Albury-mask-wearing-winter-pandemic is pretty exciting - especially as we were lockdown only 2 weeks after”.

Across 1 week they helped secure her 16 new clients into her 21-day program – which has an onward a funnel in place to upsell them into other programs.

Lastly, Joanne’s phone funnel was JUST pushed live, with a couple of calls booked in a few days. Following on from this our job is to optimise this funnel for conversions and work on her sales pitch.

"Two months in and my audience has grown by thousands, my list has doubled and my income is steadily growing. I have dived into Facebook ads which has been a revelation and I’ve even executed a pre launch launch! It is powerful to be right alongside other owners as they grow their businesses too. The support, the accountability and the candidness of our coaches is making a major difference to how I am working and my goals for the future.”

“In the first 3 months I got more done than what I used to get done in a year. We have made so many incredible changes to improve both my sales and profit margin.

After just 2 months, I had a record month in sales."

“In two months, I have tripled my email subscribers, set up automations which have generated great sales (abandoned cart sequence and website pop-up) set up my first Facebook ad which is doing really well AND sold out of my pre-sales for my next book in a couple of hours!"

Just 12 months in our sales are doubling year on year... we’ve jettisoned a product, relaunched our flagship product, rebranded our website, and overcome one of us unexpectedly being absent from the biz. This year we will totally be a AU$1,000,000 turnover business. What’s more we LOVE our biz again!

"I have been able to efficiently fast track my business to success within the niche Equestrian industry with a complete rebrand, new website, social media and marketing plan and fundamentally a better understanding of my numbers. If you are a business owner who needs to be inspired, educated and connected with like minded individuals to take your business to the next level, I cannot recommend joining the Elevatory journey enough!"

"This program has opened my eyes and helped me take my business to the next level. The assistance and support with FB ads, strategy and financial management has increased my sales month on month. I wouldn’t have been able to achieve what I have in the last six months without their help, they have reignited the passion and motivation I first had for my business, and I am excited for what is to come."

"The Elevatory have helped me scale up and given me the tools and confidence to make changes that have had a major impact on my revenue. I had invested in coaches before, but never to this extent (financially and emotionally)..but I am more than happy to report that the coaching has paid for itself several times over. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results, so much so that I will continue to work with Anna and her team for the foreseeable future. I just cannot let them go!
