From chasing to being chased


I was chatting to an old friend the other day about how marketing's changed.

Back in the day, we both did pretty damn well from the established method of...

  • Free content
  • Free lead magnet
  • Simple nurture
  • Make a sale

But, times have changed.

If you're still using this approach, you'll likely have seen big shifts like...

... the work it takes to convert one lead into a customer is exponentially harder...
... the cost of converting those leads is vastly higher...
... the competition is a lot fiercer...

The result is higher fees for fewer sales.

A lot of the time, it feels like you end up chasing leads and begging them to hire you.

if you take a second to look at the changes, you'll come to the same conclusion as I have.

This is only going to get worse as time goes by.

And if you're still operating on the old approaches for growth, you're going to see fewer results with every passing week in 2025.

Now's the time to change.

If you're not sure what the changes you need to make are or how you should be thinking about growth for this year, join me on Friday.

I'm running a free webinar where I'm talking about the big shifts you need to know about to succeed in 2025.

I'll also be explaining the system you need to be implementing in your biz to minimise risk, enable scale, and unlock more profit.

These shifts help you go from playing a game of chasing leads to get any business you can, to having your best leads come to you and WANT to pay you money.

If you want to join us, check out the registration page here.

See you on Friday.

Quick note before the weekend. I’ve had a few replies this week from people who are looking for help scaling in 2026. I’m booking the last couple of calls for this opportunity. If you’re thinking: “I should probably look at this, but I’ll come back to it later” You might want to at least look at getting in touch. I dunno what my availability is gonna be like later and, if I'm near capacity, I'm more likely to see how I can fit someone I've spoken into the schedule. So if you think that maybe...

Wanna know what the biggest sign of a lack of strategy is? It’s indecision. If you lack any kind of strategy, everything can feel like it's the right move. You end up getting caught with the whole analysis paralysis thing where... ... More ads could help.... More content could help.... A new offer could help.... A new channel could help. So nothing gets ruled out. Everything gets added to a "to-do" list and everyone starts feeling overwhelmed, not really knowing where to start. That’s when...

Picture this... You've identified the problem in your business. Where things break down and money is being lost. You analyse, design the fix, and set everyone on the path to implementing that fix. Time to pop the champaign right? Nope. After you've built that awesome fix, you see... nothing. No improvements, no meaningful changes, no new sales. And you're back to square one. It's a problem I see a lot. People fixing the symptom, but completely missing the cause. here's what I mean. I worked...
