From 200 to 1k per day


A chap I worked with a little while back hit a solid milestone.

Something most people would kill for.

He was making around $200 / day on a $70 ad spend which is way better than 99% of people manage. Here’s a daily snapshot he sent me (with a question about how to make even more).

Here’s the thing.

If you watched the video in my last email, you already know that’s not $6,000/month going into his pocket.

  • $70 of that daily revenue goes straight to ad spend.
  • That drops it to $130/day profit (~$3,900/month).
  • Then we take out software, hosting, email platforms, say another $900/month.

Now we’re down to about $3K/month in actual profit.

Still solid, especially from a $7 book.

But when you factor in tax, effort, and scale potential, it’s not quite the dream people are chasing.

That’s why I never rely on front-end sales alone.

Here’s what we did:

We added a mid-ticket upsell strategy, simple workshop offers, tailored to the people who had already bought the $1 product.

The result?

We went from “solid” to “seriously profitable.”

Because this is what it comes down to:

The $1 product isn’t your business, it’s the door.
Your real job is to lead those buyers to their next step.
Help them solve the next problem, and they’ll pay you more to do it.

Get this right, and that little $1 product becomes fuel for your profit-driving offers.

If your business is a machine, then every part of it needs to work smoothly. You’ve got buyers coming in... great. But if the next step in the system isn’t dialled in, growth stalls. It’s not always obvious where the issue is. Is it a conversion gap? Messaging issue? Offer mismatch? That’s where this comes in. My friend Laura Lopuch put together a simple quiz to help you pinpoint the exact bottleneck in your client-getting system. It’s takes 2 minutes and it’ll show you: → Which part of your...

In my last email, I explained how the 7-11-4 rule helps build trust and familiarity that leads to purchases. But here’s what most people get wrong: They think just showing up enough times is what makes the sale. Nuh-uh. Let me put it another way: Imagine you buy something small from a local shop. The next day they message you: “Hey, do you also want to buy this other thing?” You say no. A day later, they send you the same message. Has your opinion changed? No, so you decline. Again and again...

Yo, Surviving off $1 product sales is possible… But it's hard as hell, and leaves a tonne of easy profit on the table. Here’s the thing… People who buy a low-ticket offer are at least 12x more likely to buy again compared to freebie seekers. But most people don’t have a system to actually make that second sale happen. Which means they miss the easiest money in their business. So, how do you actually turn those small buyers into high-ticket clients? That’s exactly what I break down in today’s...
