Do less - get more??


Yo!

When I was younger in my career, I thought I needed to be dominating as many channels and strategies with marketing as possible.

I was trying to...

  • Do cold outreach and sell over the phone
  • Implement a complete SEO strategy to bag all that organic goodness
  • Build a robust LinkedIn presence so people knew the name
  • Lock in partnerships with big players for that lovely little sales boost
  • Try to run some FB ads to eke out some results.

And a couple of other things on top.

You know what the result was?

There wasn't any meaningful results.

And sadly, when I started to see results through one approach, I didn't double down as I should cause I didn't wanna let the rest of it all go.

Over the years though, I noticed something when speaking to and working with some successful folks.

You don't need to do all the things to find success.

Want some proof. How's this?

These are real, 7-figure entrepreneurs I've spoken to...

  • One has exactly 5 pages indexed by Google but pulls just under $100K /month. Every lead comes to them from Twitter.
  • One only uses FB ads as it not known by the wider marketing world and makes $2.4M / year
  • One runs a handful of organic content sites on which you'll not find their name at all.But their organic traffic is huge.

Each of these people (and plenty of others) found one channel and approach they could do consistently and worked at it to get results.

They put the blinders on and worked to get the most out of that strategy.

This is, without fail, the best way to grow your business.

It;s not about doing more, it's about doing less, but better.

You just need to find...

  1. The approach you can be consistent at
  2. The approach you enjoy actioning
  3. A system that helps you get compounding gains from that approach

Find that, and you're set.

If you've had some traction and really want to scale your biz over th e next 6 months, but you're not sure on how to find the approach and system to do so, hit reply and let me know.

I'm looking for a couple of people to run through a 12 week program to set up a profitable ACCER model.

If you want to set up a system that helps you grow like the peeps above, let me know and we'll get it moving.

A couple of days back I caught some criticism for saying that free lead magnets just aren't good enough. It was the usual spiel from me. People who pay once will pay again. Low ticket offers build a more engaged list. Yada yada yada. Well, someone took umbrage with and decided to message me about how wrong I was. Which is cool. You have your opinions, I have mine. I'm not so precious that I can't hear and consider another viewpoint. It doesn't bother me because I've seen how low-ticket offers...

I'm cooking something up and I've got a question. Imagine you've got 1 month. 4 weeks. 30 days. 730 hours. In that time, you set yourself a goal to do something that will have a positive impact on your business. It could be anything from... Crafting a new offer Building a new funnel Creating an ad campaign Booking in 20 sales calls Increasing the LTV of your existing customers Writing a book to use to bring in more customers It might seem like a tall order, right? However, you've got a secret...

I've started doing this thing in the GM+ Community where I set aside a few hours every week and offer video feedback. You send few key pieces of info and a link to what you want reviewed or audited. Then, I record a personalised feedback video as a response so you've got some ideas on how I'd try to remove the problem and get growth back on track. I've just hit publish on this week's post. However, this week I'm opening it to everyone. So, if you're facing a problem you don't know how to...
