Here's how to improve your assets quickly


Let's say you've created an asset. Could be...

  • A sales page
  • An ad
  • An email

... or anything that you're gonna use in your biz.

How do you know if it's any good?

I'll be honest here - YOU don't know.

Not for certain.

Often, we're too close to the forest to see the trees. You're biased and, what makes sense to you as the creator is completely confusing to anyone else who reads it.

The first REAL test most assets get is when you hit publish and drive some real traffic to it.

But there's a better way I've been using for a while, which I'll outline below.

First, you've gotta ask the ideal customer to review it for you.

But... and this is a big one... don't just send them a link and say "would love your opinion on this".

Doing that gives them time to think about what they should say. They'll justify why they did things and retroactively add reasons to their actions - which are rarely accurate.

They tell you what they think rather than you understanding what they'll do.

How do you find out what you can change to ake them take the action you want?

Get them to agree to give you feedback and either...

  1. Get them to record their FIRST review with Loom and get them to be vocal about it
  2. Jump on a Zoom with them, get them to share their screen, and then send them the link

Why do it this way?

Cause you get a more realistic review of what they actually feel and how they actually act when coming across this thing for the first time.

Watching them live helps you understand...

  • Which bits they skim and which bits they stop to read
  • Which messages and angles actually hit versus those that miss
  • Which bits they find confusing
  • Which links they click, and which ones they don't

Basically, it gives you an actual real world view on how the asset will be received.

then you ask qquestions on WHY to flesh it all out, and boom, you've got everything you need to improve the asset.

At the end of this, you'll have a stronger asset that drives better results.

With that in mind, I'm looking for a handful of people to review a new sales page I just put together for the GM+ Community.

If you could spare ~15 minutes to offer feedback, hit reply and let me know the below...

  • What your biz is
  • If you've ever joined a paid community
  • What stage your biz is at

If there's a fit, I'll give you something in return.

I'll book more time out on the call as a free consult for your biz and, if appropriate, give you a discount on one of the offers I've created.

All you've gotta do is hit reply and answer those quick Qs.

Cheers!

Was chatting on the GM+ call yesterday (you can join us for those here) and we got into the details of attracting higher-level clients by standing out from the competition. The kind of clients who will… Pay you higher fees See you as an advisor, not just a tactical implementor Listen to and value your feedback and advice to them And if you get in early enough, maybe even be open to you taking some equity These are the dream clients we all want to work with. They’re less hassle, better payers,...

I’m reworking a bunch of offers and ideas at the minute. And I’d love some feedback on what you’d find most valuable and useful. First though, I’m gonna explain the reasoning behind this little shift - I broke this down in detail in GM+ recently, but want to expand on it a little here. So I’m looking to create 12 offers so I can easily promote one per month to the email list. An easy cycle where, every month, we can offer something that helps people grow their biz. Also, these will double up...

I’ve lost the battle, but not the war with building custom AI Agents to create assets as products. I just can’t get it to replicate the same kind of output as the Custom GPTs. I’ve recorded a video below, but I’ll kick off with the difference in one area of one of these AI Assistants. So, for the $1 Product Strategy Advisor Custom GPT, the output for each stage is like the below… “1.
