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.

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...

Welcome to the first full work week of 2026. If you’re coming into the year unhappy with how 2025 finished, or you’re like me and want this year to be materially better, this matters. This is the time of year when everyone is... ... buying a new planner... mapping out their “path to success”... deciding which actions are finally going to turn their life around. But when you actually look at what people plan, it’s almost always too small to create real change. I’m already seeing posts about...
