Hey everyone, Aron & Sharon here with this week's update!
Welcome to weekly update number seven! It's Friday, October 10th, and I've got some exciting stuff to show you. But first, a bit of surprising news - there's no new DIY template this week.
Before you click away, hear me out. What we're releasing instead is actually way better than just another template pack.
Your New Dashboard Command Center
First things first - when you log into your member account now, you'll see a completely redesigned dashboard. We're still tweaking some things, but this is a major improvement over what was there before.
What You'll See:
Quick Stats Overview: Right at the top, you can see how many DIY pages you've created, how many contacts you've generated, and how many people you've referred to Optin Page. Everything important, right there.
Clear Commission Display: We made it much easier to see what commission percentage you're earning based on your membership level. No more hunting around for that info.
Easy Access Buttons: Quick links to DIY pages, done-for-you pages, traffic section, training - all the important stuff right where you need it.
Recent Activity: See your last created pages and newest contacts at a glance, with a quick "view all" button if you need to dive deeper.
Updates Slideshow: This is pretty cool - there's now a slideshow that shows you the latest updates daily. This weekly update will appear right there, so you'll never miss what's new.
It's all about making your workflow smoother and giving you the information you need without having to click through multiple pages.
The Color Customization Revolution (This is Huge)
Okay, so here's why there's no new template this week. Instead of giving you one new template, we just made every single existing template infinitely customizable.
The Problem We Solved:
We kept getting questions like "Hey Aron, I love this template, but can I change the colors?" Before, you were stuck with whatever color scheme came with each template. Want a red version of the blue theme? We had to create an entirely separate template for that.
Not anymore.
What's New:
We've gone through every single template - opt-in pages, bridge pages, thank you pages - and added full color customization to all of them. Every element. Every color. Every gradient.
And yeah, I said gradients.
The Custom Gradient Color Picker:
This is something I'm really proud of. Gradient backgrounds and buttons have always been tricky to make editable. So I developed a custom gradient color picker that lets you completely change gradient designs on the fly.
You can see the gradient shift in real-time as you adjust the colors. Works for backgrounds, buttons, any gradient element on your page.
How It Works:
- Edit any template in the live editor
- Go to the "Style" tab
- Use the color pickers to change any element
- For gradients, use the gradient picker to adjust both colors and the transition
The Color Palette Feature:
Not sure where to start? We've created pre-made color palettes that completely transform the vibe of a template with one click:
- Gold theme
- Red theme
- Blue theme
- And more coming
One template can now serve any niche, any audience, any offer. Just change the colors to match your brand.
What This Means for Existing Templates
Here's the thing - now that every template is fully customizable, some of our existing templates are basically duplicates. We had a blue version, a red version, a gold version of the same design because we couldn't let you change colors before.
Going Forward:
We'll be gradually phasing out duplicate templates. Don't worry - your existing pages won't break. But when you're creating new pages, you won't see three versions of the same template anymore. You'll see one template that you can customize to look however you want.
This actually makes your life easier. Instead of scrolling through dozens of similar templates trying to find the right color, you just pick the layout you like and make it your own.
Advanced Thank You Page Customization
While we were at it, we added another cool feature to certain templates like the Team Leader thank you page.
You know those "What Happens Next" sections with the three steps? Before, you could change the text and numbers, but that was it.
Now You Can:
- Rearrange the steps by dragging and dropping
- Add more steps if you need them
- Remove steps you don't want
- Change the numbering style (1, 2, 3 or A, B, C - whatever you prefer)
- Even remove the numbers entirely if that's your style
This opens up a whole new world of possibilities for thank you page designs. And we'll be implementing this kind of flexibility into more templates in the coming weeks.
DIY Pages Marketplace Sneak Peek:
I mentioned this quickly in the video, but yeah - we're working on a DIY pages marketplace. More details coming soon, but the Health & Wellness theme you might have seen me testing will be one of the first offerings there.
Live Good Follow-Ups Are Now Live (In Beta)
This is the big one we've been promising. The automated follow-up system for Live Good is now in beta and working.
What This Means:
When someone opts into one of your Live Good pages, they automatically start receiving a pre-written email sequence. These aren't random emails - they're proven follow-ups based on the swipes we provide in the done-for-you section.
What Makes This Special:
- Emails address your leads by name
- They sign off with YOUR name
- Your affiliate links are automatically coded in
- Zero work required from you after setup
Full Tracking & Control:
You get complete visibility into what's happening:
- See which emails have been sent
- Track open rates
- Monitor click rates
- Preview all emails in the sequence before they go out
How to Get Access:
The beta is currently available to select members. If you're consistently generating leads and want access, just message me or Sharon. We want to make sure beta testers actually have traffic flowing so we can get real data.
If you're already in the beta - enable this for your pages NOW. Your leads are sitting there waiting for follow-up, and now you can do it automatically.
This Week's Master's Course Addition: Content Creation Strategy
Every week we're adding something valuable to the Master's Course, and this week addresses one of the biggest challenges we all face: creating content consistently.
Gary Vaynerchuk's Reverse Pyramid Content Model
Gary Vee is a serial entrepreneur who's built multiple multi-million dollar companies and has thousands of hours of incredible content on YouTube. His content strategy is legendary, and we just added his complete content creation framework to the training section.
What You'll Learn:
This isn't a video - it's a detailed slide deck that walks you through Gary's "Reverse Pyramid" content model. This is the systematic approach to creating once and distributing everywhere.
The strategy focuses on:
- Creating platform-native content
- Maximizing reach and traffic
- Balancing volume with quality
- The create-once, distribute-everywhere approach
How to Access:
Go to the Master's Course section in your dashboard, find the Content Creation module, and work through the slides. You can even open them in full-screen mode to really focus on the material.
This is crucial stuff. You can have the best funnels and offers in the world, but if you're not creating content to drive traffic, you're leaving money on the table.
The Technical Stuff
As always, we're here to support you. The new dashboard makes it even easier to find help:
- Scroll down to find the Knowledge Base
- Direct link to our Facebook Group
- Submit a support ticket right from the dashboard
- Or use the FAQ/live chat box at the bottom right of every page
If you're stuck, don't stay stuck. We'd rather answer your questions quickly than have you frustrated and not making progress.
The Bottom Line
This week was all about giving you more flexibility and power:
New dashboard that puts everything important right in front of you
Complete color customization for every template - one template can now serve infinite niches
Advanced editing features like rearrangeable thank you page sections
Automated follow-ups in beta for Live Good (finally!)
Gary Vee's content strategy to help you consistently create and distribute content
The color customization alone changes everything. We're not just giving you templates anymore - we're giving you a design system you can mold to fit any offer, any brand, any vision.
And the automated follow-ups? That's the piece that turns your lead generation into an actual business. You capture the lead, the system nurtures them, they see your offers, commissions roll in.
What's Coming
We'll continue expanding the beta for automated follow-ups and adding more offers beyond just Live Good. The goal is to make OptinPage a complete business-in-a-box where you drive traffic, capture leads, and the system does the follow-up for you.
More Master's Course additions every week, more template features, and continued improvements to the overall system design.
Try It Out
Premium members - jump into the DIY section and start playing with the color customization. Seriously, it's kind of addictive once you see how much you can transform a single template.
If you're in the follow-up beta, enable it for your pages and start watching those emails go out automatically.
And everyone should check out that Gary Vee content creation module. Whether you're creating content or not, you should be. And this shows you exactly how to do it efficiently.
Questions? You know where to find us - Facebook group, support tickets, live chat, or just DM us directly.
