Forests and trees


You ever get that feeling you're missing something obvious in your biz?

That there's a simple fix, tweak, or change that can turn an average approach into something pretty damn awesome?

Happens to us all.

Here's the thing.

When I started the GM+ Community I was toying with the idea of making it an "expert-led" community.

Putting myself at the top and positioning the whole thing around "join this and I'll fix your business".

But I always wanted more of a collaborative area and community there.

Not just because there are gonna be some things I can't help with, but also because I need help as well.

I don't care who you are, sometimes you're so deep in doing the thing you can't see the forest for the trees.

And sometimes, all it takes is for someone else to say "have you tried this" to unlock that next level of growth.

Case in point.

I just sat and watched a ~12-minute critique a GM+ Member did of a sales page I've put together.

I'd been so busy trying to "tweak" the page I missed a couple of really obvious and simple fixes that should help get better results.

But, thanks to this ~12-minute video I've got a couple of things I can quickly address and test to see what works.

This is what the community should be.

A place where anyone can come in and get feedback from people with skin in the game to help them improve their assets and systems.

So, if you're ever feeling like there's an obvious fix you can't see cause you're too far into the weeds, try asking someone you know for their take.

Or, join GM+ and join in the feedback sessions to quickly improve your biz.

Check out GM+ now

Right, I'm off to record a video with some feedback for someone else in the community now.

Yo, Quick heads up before I wrap up this instance of HVO. High Value Offers closes tonight. And I want to be clear about what this decision actually is. This isn’t about buying a course. It’s about whether you keep guessing. Because if nothing changes, here’s what probably happens... ... You come up with another idea.... You talk yourself into it.... You spend weeks building.... You launch. And then you’re right back where you are now, trying to work out why it didn’t land. Not because you’re...

Yo, One thing I haven’t really said yet is this. High Value Offers isn’t something you use once and hope you picked the right idea. It’s more like a way of looking at your business that keeps paying you back. Most people assume this kind of system is only useful when you’re starting from scratch. Like, “I don’t know what to sell, so this helps me find an idea.” And yeah, it does that. If you’re staring at a blank page wondering what to build next, this gives you a way to find ideas that...

Yo, One thing that messes people up with offers is they assume this has to be difficult. Like there’s some tax you have to pay in confusion before you’re allowed to make money. ... Weeks of thinking.... Months of building.... Endless second-guessing. I get it, money is the primary tool for survival in our world, so we kinda all want to think it's hard to acquire. But the reality is, the only reason this feels hard is because most people start in the wrong place. They start with the product....
