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.

Yo, Years back I put 6 months of effort into building what I thought was a killer offer. This thing was... Based on real world results I had and could prove Comprised of what I helped my clients do Tested and proven But after the build, I've never had anything that was as hard to promote. It was like rolling a boulder uphill. Everything was harder than it should have been. I was getting hit with... ... CTR on my promo emails so low I thought there was a tracking issue...

This week, I’ve talked a lot about offers. And if you’ve been paying attention, some of it might feel contradictory. ... On one hand, I’ve said the most powerful businesses aren’t reliant on you for delivery. ... On the other, I’ve said building something truly scalable from day one is expensive, risky, and unrealistic for most people. Both are true. Ideas like Zero to One, building something entirely new, can work. But they usually require serious capital, long runways, and a tolerance for...

Yesterday I talked about what a bad offer does to your business — and to you. Today, I want to flip that and talk about what insanely profitable offers actually have in common. Because they’re not clever. And they’re definitely not built around hustle. In fact, I'd argue that... Great offers don’t rely on you as the facilitator. If the results depend on your personal effort, time, or constant involvement, you’ll hit a ceiling fast. You can do well like that. I know guys pulling around 7-figs...
