I AM SPEED


I'm on a huge "get shit done" kick at the minute.

I've found that the faster I do things - even if I don't do them perfectly (often especially if I don't take too long) - the better results I get.

For example, a few years back I had a mate ask me repeatedly to re-do her resumé.

At the same time I had a client delay a project by a week despite me having booked out 2 days to do the work.

Know what I did with those 2 days?

I created a guide for my friend explaining how I approached Resumés as a copywriter which I then formatted as a book.

The book was roughly ~8000 words.

While I had a designer do the cover, I set up an email sequence as a bonus which was all about cover letters. I linked the book to the sales page and set it all live on Amazon.

I launched the book the following week and built a small list of a few hundred job seekers in the first month.

I wish I would have known what I now now as I could have properly monetised it.

Anyway.

2 lessons from this.

  1. Getting shit done quickly is more than half of the success battle.
  2. Books are a great way to grow your business and list with high-intent, relevant audiences.

I'm working on something to help you with the former.

For the latter, I'm jumping on a call with book creator extraordinaire Peter Mage next week who's gonna run us through his system for quickly creating books that grow businesses.

This is a system Peter uses to craft high-converting books for big influencers. Some of his books have been the first offer in 6-figure launches so he knows his shit.

If this ain't your bag, no worries.

But what should definitely be your bag is getting stuff done ASAP. Whatever you've been putting off for another day, is something you should be doing now.

I love a deal. I'll research a new product I'm gonna buy like mad so I know I'm getting the best version at the best price. It's common in a lot of B2C purchases, right? Hell, even in some things like insurance there are dedicated comparison shopping sites. Here's the weird thing though. I'm seeing more and more comparison shoppers for B2B offers. I've spoken to a few coaches, agencies, and consultants recently who are seeing the same thing. They're getting people on the phone, but those...

Meta ads have been brutal over the last 8 weeks or so. They've been rolling out a new algo and it's made the platform way more volatile than usual. If you spend any time on the FB Ads subreddit, you'll see the panic and fear... "Worst month for ads ever in my 12+ years of advertising" "Meta advertising is dead" "I'm going back to Google ads" Then you've got all the copium that comes with it. People talking about how Meta platforms are dying (they're not), and how they don't want to pay Zuck....

Email subscriber JP emailed me with the below question in response to an email I sent about the old method of turning cold leads into high-ticket clients being broken. Dear Peter,Sam Ovens later admitted his old way was broken.But what do you think of the model of Russ Ruffino?Is that still working today?How does it differ from your model?Thanks and God bless. I responded with this (I try to respond to all emails I receive). I’m not super familiar with Russ’s model. From a quick search it...
