A little help please?


How clean is your email list?

It's likely not as clean as you think, and that's gonna be costing you big.

A couple of days back I was discussing the difficulties with email marketing with my wife.

How Google in particular love sending this to junk or promo folders, meaning they never get read.

She checked her own promotions tab and found hundreds fo emails from brands she likes that she'd missed cause who checks the promo tab?

Anyway, I've noticed my email engagement dipping so started looking into why.

After an email from an email pro (Jason Resnick), I used a tool called GlockApps to check my email and, it ain't good.

Across the various email services like GMail, only half put my email in the primary inbox.

Not good at all.

So I'm looking at fixing that. A few things that would help is if you could...

  • Whitelist emails from @growthmodels.co
  • Drag this to your primary inbox (if it's not there already)
  • Hit reply and send a response with any info or content to me.

This should help improve deliverability and ensure more folk get to see this message.

Self-serving I know, but I'd really appreciate it.

I'll also be following the other recommendations I have from GlockApps.

If you want to check your deliverabilty, head to Glockapps, sign up, and follow their steps for the proxy check.

Don't worry, you can do this for free.

You'll get a cool report on how to land in the main inbox.

Anything else, let me know.

P.S. once more, if you could please...

  • Whitelist emails from @growthmodels.co
  • Drag this to your primary inbox (if it's not there already)
  • Hit reply and send any response to me.

This week, I’ve talked a lot about offers. And if you’ve been paying attention, some of it might feel contradictory. ... On one hand, I’ve said the most powerful businesses aren’t reliant on you for delivery. ... On the other, I’ve said building something truly scalable from day one is expensive, risky, and unrealistic for most people. Both are true. Ideas like Zero to One, building something entirely new, can work. But they usually require serious capital, long runways, and a tolerance for...

Yesterday I talked about what a bad offer does to your business — and to you. Today, I want to flip that and talk about what insanely profitable offers actually have in common. Because they’re not clever. And they’re definitely not built around hustle. In fact, I'd argue that... Great offers don’t rely on you as the facilitator. If the results depend on your personal effort, time, or constant involvement, you’ll hit a ceiling fast. You can do well like that. I know guys pulling around 7-figs...

Yesterday I said this year only really changes if the offer does. Today, I want to be blunt about what happens when the offer isn’t right. This isn’t theory. I’ve personally dragged dying offers way longer than I should have, burning time, money, and energy trying to force something that wasn’t working. When you're in that place, the offer doens't just hurt your business. It leaks into everything else. Within the business, it usually looks like this... ... You’re always “working on...
