Bad news is all around us. But that doesn't necessarily mean that it's an accurate reflection of the current state of our society and world, which is why in today's episode, I cover the importance of maintaining perspective and arming yourself with fact—not fear—based information.
This is Part 5 of a 5-part series about how to effectively cope when you're inundated with bad news stories and negativity.
And while the world may seem all doom and gloom, research and evidence show that we actually live in an increasingly peaceful time. That's not to say there isn't still tons of room for improvement, however. But we should also focus on the positives and factor in the progress we've made as well.
Notes from the show:- We actually live in a more peaceful time now than we ever have before
- Advancements in communication technology put information at our fingertips so we are just hearing about the bad news in the world more now
- Every generation seems to have a problem with the subsequent one; it's easy to let emotions take over and see things from a negative point of view without examining the facts
- Pretty much everyone thinks they are doing the right thing
- We are all one community, one big ecosystem
- Looking at situations from other people's perspectives help to bridge the hate

It's no secret that the news has been inundated with negative stories and happenings lately. But the reality is that if we have time to worry and complain, then we have time to take positive action, too. And that's exactly what I talk about in today's episode.
This is Part 4 in a 5-part series about practical tips, staying open and resourced, and shifting our mindsets so we don't become weighed down by all of the bad news stories.
We should be aware of what's going on in the world but we should digest that information when we're in the best frame of mind to do so. That way, we can spend our time doing something useful about it—something that can make the world a better place.
Notes from the show:- Share what you believe but do so in a way that comes from a place of clean energy
- Post supportive, love-based thoughts and stories on social media
- Attend peaceful protests or use artistic expression to convey your message
- Take Mr. Rogers' advice and "Look for the helpers"
- Volunteer, make donations, send energy - do whatever you feel most comfortable with

If you don't stay open and learn how to manage your intake of current events in a way that empowers and enables you to cope with love rather than fear-based thinking, it's easy to become weighed down by bad news stories.
This is Part 3 in a 5-part series about the tools you can use and the actions you can take when you start to feel overwhelmed by too much negative news.
So much of the way we navigate the world around us has to do with our mindset. And luckily, that's something we're in charge of (to a large degree) and can tweak to create an overall more positive and joyful life for ourselves.
I really hope you find this series helpful!
Notes from the show:- The value of appreciating each day and treating it as a gift
- How to reframe your mindset to be one filled with gratitude, not worry or fear
- A challenge to commit to doing something that brings you joy every single day

Bad news deeply affects many of us. And there certainly is no shortage of it these days, so it can be difficult not to become totally consumed by it.
This is Part 2 in a 5-part series filled with tips and resources that will help you better cope with all the negative news.
Turning a blind eye to what's going on in the world is not what I'm proposing. Rather, I'm suggesting ways that you can take charge of your mindset and make sure that you stay open and continue operating from a place of love in spite of the negative things happening around you.
I really hope you find this series helpful!

- A Chrome extension that lets you block news from yourself until you're better equipped to handle it

It seems like there's been a lot of bad news out there lately, and even the most evolved people have a hard time getting sucked into it.
This is Part 1 in a 5 part series filled with tips that will help you feel better about all of the negative news.
I'm certainly not advocating ignoring it - but we can also approach things like this from a place of empowerment and genuine desire to help versus getting sucked into fear-based thinking that only makes the world worse.
I hope this helps - it's really needed right now!
Notes From The Show:
– Fear limits us - love expands us.
- Breathe deep in order to connect back to yourself

You may have heard of Ryan Moran before: he has a very popular podcast, has a huge fan base, and is very well known for creating a million dollar Amazon-based business in a year.
There are lots of interviews about how Ryan created his successful business, so in today's show we talked about his path to creating his successful business and how he invests his money now that he has it.
Some of the things we cover are:
- Why Ryan was making money but still miserable
- The #1 shift that helped Ryan feel a lot better about his business
- How Ryan spends his money now (including how he gets a 25% return on some of his investments)
- ...and a bit more, including points where we both get butterflies in our stomachs (mostly because we're geeks!)

Today's episode was sent in by Kimberly on rachelrofe.com/questions.
She asks,
"Hello Rachel, I love all the cool things you do. I bought something from you and it came through JV Zoo. Afterwards, I was bombarded by JV Zoo emails. I have a product that I need help promoting but I hate the idea of putting my clients through that. What are your thoughts on JV Zoo did it work well for you and can the email onslaught be avoided with Clickbank? Thanks for Being You!"
Notes From The Show:
- It depends on what you're selling
- JVZoo is great for IM products and for finding affiliates.
- Clickbank doesn't send out emails but not as easy to find affiliates.
- JVZoo and Clickbank are best for non-recurring fee options
- Shopify can also be used to sell digital products and there are affiliate apps. They don't send emails.
- I personally use Shopify for physical products, Nanacast, JVZoo, and Clickbank.
Links and Resources Mentioned:JVZoo - No upfront fee, sends out emails if people don't un-check the button
Clickbank - $50 fee to list a product, no emails sent out
Shopify - No emails sent out, recurring fee (use that link for 20% off though)
Nanacast - Complex to use, offers lifetime commissions, recurring fee

Today’s show is for you if you feel like you don’t know your “purpose” yet and that makes you feel bad.
Notes From The Show:
– Being stuck on finding a “purpose” can make us feel horrible.
– Not everyone necessarily has a specific purpose that has to be monetized and made into a business or has to help a zillion people.
– Do what feels good as often as you can
Links and Resources Mentioned:Anthony Lemme – This is the person whose post I found.
Facebook post – This is what I read aloud.
Danielle LaPorte – I am pretty sure Desire Map is where I read about Danielle’s example with using core desired feelings at work.

Today's episode was sent in by Ruchi on rachelrofe.com/questions and is all about legacy. The question was about the legacy *I* want to leave behind, but I invite you to answer this for yourself, too.
Ruchi asks, "Hi Rachel! Hopefully this doesn't come across as morbid, but here's my question to you, you do a lot of great things for the world, from everyday angel bombs where you unexpectedly brighten up someone's day, to huge things like helping raise 50k in less than a day for a school in Brazil. My question for you is what legacy do you hope to leave after you're gone, and what would you like to be remembered for?”
Notes From The Show:
- I usually think in terms of "will I be happy on my death bed?" and/or what values can I instill in future kids?
- Made a difference (without parameters).
- Pleasure
- Use gifts
What about you? I'd love to hear!

Would you like to have your content featured on major sites like MindBodyGreen, Huffington Post, and other major websites?
If so, you can - it's TOTALLY do-able - and you don't even need to have some major following or credentials first.
In today's episode I'm going to go over exactly how you can get featured on MindBodyGreen and other sites, even if you're starting with zero online presence.This show was created thanks to Stephanie submitting a question on rachelrofe.com/questions. She asks, "Hi Rachel! My potential podcast question is ...How can one get published on a site like MindBodyGreen? THANKS!"
Please feel free to submit your questions, too!
Notes From The Show:
Step 1: Make sure your niche makes sense with whatever site you'd like to submit to.
Here were the articles I submitted to MindBodyGreen even though I am known for personal development *and* biz advice.
10 Tips To Improve Your Morning In 5 Minutes Or Less (1.6k shares)
10 Ways To Fit Fun Into A Busy Day (676 shares)
7 Reasons You're Not Living The Life Of Your Dreams (3.5k shares)
7 Ways To Get Anything You Want (13.1k shares)Step 2: Look at what’s already doing well on sites.
Most places will tell you exactly what their most popular articles are. See if your content can mold to it a little bit. Look for key words in titles, headline formats, certain lengths of words in headlines, etc.
You can also search for something like "mindbodygreen.com productivity" or "forbes.com beauty" and manually open up a bunch of articles to see what has done well.
If nothing in your niche is doing well, it may mean you don't have the sexiest topic.
Step 3: Write your article (if a site requires it upfront).
Make sure to adhere to the submission requirements of a site. Different sites like different word counts, topics, etc.
Make it easy to read with short sentences and deliver exactly what the title offers. Don't be too verbose or self promotional.
If the site allows, have a resource box that tells people where they can sign up to get more from you, preferably with a gift that has to do with whatever your article's about.
Optional: You may want to have friends or a coach proofread your article before you submit.
Step 4: Submit your content following submission guidelines.
Most people who are on sites like MindBodyGreen or HuffingtonPost are there simply because they asked to be.
Just do a search for ‘site name + submission’ or ‘site name + submit article’.
Step 5: Put it in your calendar to see if you get accepted.
Most sites will tell you when they’ll let you know if you’ll get accepted or not by. Put the date in your calendar and take appropriate action. You may want to clean up your article and re-submit, or maybe use your article as content for your own blog, other sites, or for guest blogging.

Today's show goes over how you can use GetResponse's new web forms and apps to increase the subscribers on your mailing list. I go over which apps I've been using and how I use them to build my mailing list.
If you have a topic request or a question you'd like me to answer, please head over to http://rachelrofe.com/questions and ask!
Notes From The Show:
- GetResponse.com is an autoresponder service you can use to grow and communicate with your mailing list. I've tested out 10 or so comparable systems and this has been my favorite.
- This is a sponsored show. I seeked GetResponse out as a sponsor because they're a company I know, love, and have been using for nearly a decade.
- To access forms, go to Forms, then Create Forms, then the List Builder Wizard.
- There are 11 different form options including a blank one + one where you can search for size dimensions. Everything is customizable, no cheesy stock photos.
- Split testing is now an option. Make sure to use it. Unless you get a TON of traffic, I'd test 2 forms at a time and keep cutting the weaker ones and replacing them with new variations. Test out colors you use, headlines, and the amount of things you collect (for example, try just collecting email versus name and email addresses).
- Web apps are my favorite. To access these, log into GetResponse, go to Forms, then Create Forms, then click on List Builder Apps.
- The scroll box app is one I've posted on RachelRofe.com. It's a form you put on your website that collects names and email addresses. It stays on the page the whole time as people are reading and is particularly beneficial for places where you have valuable content. It reminds people that they can get even more from you.
- The exit pop up app has been the best-performing app that I've implemented. It's a form that pops up when people are trying to leave your website and isn't annoying or invasive. I've put this on 2 places:
- KinstantFormatter.com - This is a software I have that converts documents to Kindle-ready books. If potential customers try to leave the website without buying it, they're offered information for free on how to market their books.
- A blog post in one of my niches about a particular type of tutorial. When people go to leave the blog post, I offer them a signup to get more of those types of tutorials.
The reason why this particular app is so beneficial is because people are already showing interest in a particular type of content. By offering them similar content, you're giving them what they've expressly shown interest in.
This is a win/win because people get more of what they want, plus you get extra opportunity to get in front of people. People often need multiple exposures before buying something.
- Out of all the apps this one is doing the best conversion-wise so far. It's also the best one in terms of converting signups into sales.
- The Shake box is a great one to capture peoples' attention. A signup form comes on top of the text and it jiggles back and forth to capture peoples’ attention.
- The Fixed app will post a horizontal form on the bottom or top of your page. I have something like this on rachelrofe.com/products and have gotten several hundred sign ups from it.
- GetResponse has integrations with Facebook, Wordpress, PrestaShop, Joomla, or WooCommerce, you can do that very easily under the same section in Create Forms.
Links and Resources Mentioned:GetResponse - The email autoresponder system I've used for about a decade. This is the site you can sign up with to try out the new forms and apps.
RachelRofe.com - My main site and where I have been testing some apps.
KinstantFormatter.com - One of the sites I have that I am testing the "exit pop up" app on.
rachelrofe.com/products - I've gotten hundreds of email signups on this page using something like the Fixed app.

The holidays are coming up and it’s an great time to be able to sell items online. If you’d like to know how you can sell without spending any money upfront, this show is for you.
This show was created thanks to this question from Matt:
“How can I sell products online without having to spend big money on minimum order quantities? I’ve read about people trying to hire from China and it costs a ton of money. I'm about to be a new dad and would love to jump in to shopify but am still stuck with finding and sourcing a product that sells without losing my shirt.”If you have a question you'd like me to answer, please head over to http://rachelrofe.com/questions and ask!
Notes From The Show:
Why I don't like to buy inventory upfront:
- You don't know if inventory will sell - it's a big risk.
- May have to spend thousands of dollars.
- Dealing with wholesalers can be frustrating.
UseGearBubble.com:
- 740 of 822 items from UseGearBubble
- Upload design - can design yourself, pay someone on Fiverr, work with designer, split royalties, pick a price, instantly get a site to sell on.
- UGB handles fulfillment + customer service.
- Built for direct marketing.
- Upsell like items, like a mug to a necklace with the same design
- Can sell directly on site or using dropship program. Get ROI on free campaign first.
- Sign up no matter what, you'll get free training from 7-figure marketer. Will help with anything you sell, even if not UGB.
eBay.com:
- Re-sell items for a profit (i.e. sell a watch for $13 that you find on eBay for $10)
- Go to rachelrofe.com/shopify for 20% off.
- You can contact sellers and ask to ship without their packaging or for permission to use their pictures. Most sellers are fine since they're getting exactly what they asked for.
- You can use multiple addresses.
- Customers don't always know items are available on eBay - many people don't comparison shop, different titles, plus you're giving convenience of curating for them.
- Can buy your own inventory after proven concept.
- Can do this on Amazon too.
- Make sure to check your emails every day to fulfill orders. People won't want to wait.
- I've sold 26 items of last 822 sales from here.
Stickers:
- Had my sister print out, cut, and send stickers. She fulfilled as orders came in.
- Gave her a design, posted on my store. I made stickers one color + easily cut out, though she has now upgraded her printer so it's not an issue.
- Offered free stickers + $2.95 shipping and handling. $.95 profit + got people on mailing list to re-market to, was very easy.
- Sold 56 stickers on this store, 60+ on another.
- Stickers are excellent impulse buy.
- Hands off if you auto-forward sticker orders to her.
- Can find Jackie right here: https://www.facebook.com/ImaginationsPlus
