2 core tasks for maintenance


I spent last week in Paris at the Olympics working very little.

I was able to keep clients happy and maintain sales in around 2-3 hours per day.

How?

I'll tell ya.

First off, know that retention is key.

When I'd wake up in the morning I'd flick on the TV and settle in to respond to client questions.

I'd sit there and do...

  • Email responses offering advice and ideas
  • Edits and critiques of what they have going on
  • Chases of students to make sure they were getting shit done

This would take anywhere from 1-2 hours.

Once that was done, I would work on my own stuff to keep the Growth Models' growth model ticking over.

When my wife headed into the shower, I'd sit and write the day's email which took about 20 minutes.

I'd then spend 10 minutes checking my ads and making any small changes to keep people rolling in.

With all that done, we'd head out for coffee and croissants before hitting the day's events.

When you've got a good model set up, you can focus in on the two tasks that help maintain your biz.

  • One task to add more people to your list
  • One task to increase their LTV

And setting up that same kind of model is what I'm teaching in the ACCER Model Builders program.

In 12 weeks, I'll run you through the process to set up a model that helps you achieve the same kind of low-effort work days.

One BIG caveat before I sign off.

I don't believe you can aggressively grow a business on 2-3 hours per day.

I was able to maintain my biz for that week on that because I already had the model set up.

Since returning to London, I've spent more time on actions to further grow the business which, obviously, takes more time.

However, I still have the same kind of client fulfilment and email creation timeline.

When it comes to maintenance, the right model means you can keep adding new people with one action, and converting them to higher ticket customers with a second.

That's what you'll learn how to do in the ACCER Model Builders program.

Yo! I'm taking a little break from emailing from tomorrow thanks to Christmas. If you're also celebrating, I hope you have a good one. But, before I go, I wanted to ask a Q that's heled me analyse what I'm doing and, more importantly, what I will be doing in 2026. That question is... "Are you aiming high enough or thinking big enough?" Cause I know I haven't. 2025 has been a hard year for so many people running businesses. Sales are down. Resistance is up. Stress is higher than ever before....

Yo, I recently shared this in GM+ (you can join us here for more convos on these topics), but also thought it might be useful for anyone who's thinking of testing ads for the first time, or growing to different platforms in the new year. ----- Wanted to share some of the things I’ve been working on with ads recently. This might be a long one. A little background. A couple of months back, I wanted to see if I could move some ad spend over to Google properties. A few reasons... Google has a...
