Hello and welcome to this week's episode of the You Can Podcast. I'm your host, Sarah Jolly Jarvis. And today we're going to be talking around beta testers and why basically I'm so obsessed with them and I recommend them to people and I use them with clients all the time.
Anybody from startups who are testing a new business idea and through to individuals who are wanting to take their expertise and work that they've been doing with clients and to put it into a more sustainable and scalable structure. So I use beta testers all the time with clients. I talk about this all the time.
It must be, if you were to record my sort of conversations and the topics that I talk around, it will be ideal client and beta testers. They're right up there on the words and phrases that I use on an hourly basis, let alone daily. So Why do I think they're so good? Why do I think that they're so important? As I say, I've seen them be so, so effective for clients.
And for me, my personal journey, my business, my first business started off, my first service-based business started off with a load of beta testers that I got together, asking somebody to tap into their network and offer my services online. out for them to test out a sales program with me and a kind of sales offer.
And so from that, I understood who I wanted to work with, who I didn't want to work with, what results I could expect. Actually, the reality of working with those individuals where I needed people to be in their business, where sales fitted for that business. I thought, you know what, I can come in, I can show people how to maximize the impact that they have.
in those sales conversations, in those sales calls and all would be fine and dandy. I very, very quickly understood that actually those individuals needed help earlier on in the process. They needed to draw on my marketing skills to get those sales calls into their diary so that they could actually practice then the sales skills I was wanting to teach them. Because
it's all well and good learning the stuff, but if you've got no one to practise on, if you're not putting it into practise, you're not gonna get any results. So in this episode, what are you expecting to learn? Well, I'm gonna be talking around what a beta tester is, why beta testers are so valuable, how to find beta testers, okay? Where are we gonna magic them out of?
Where are we gonna find them? when to use a beta tester, should you charge for a beta tester, should you not charge for a beta, when not to use beta testers. And then we're gonna wrap all that up so that you've got really, really clear on where they can fit and hopefully energised over where they can fit in your business. So let's get started. What is a beta tester?
Well, a beta tester is someone who tries your product or service before the official launch. That's your kind of technical definition. In reality, what does it look like? It looks like a group of individuals you get together who are ideally your ideal client or as close to your ideal client as possible, who can feedback, who can work with you on what it is you are offering.
