This isn’t just for one idea

Yo, One thing I haven’t really said yet is this. High Value Offers isn’t something you use once and hope you picked the right idea. It’s more like a way of looking at your business that keeps paying you back. Most people assume this kind of system is only useful when you’re starting from scratch. Like, “I don’t know what to sell, so this helps me find an idea.” And yeah, it does that. If you’re staring at a blank page wondering what to build next, this gives you a way to find ideas that...

Yo, One thing that messes people up with offers is they assume this has to be difficult. Like there’s some tax you have to pay in confusion before you’re allowed to make money. ... Weeks of thinking.... Months of building.... Endless second-guessing. I get it, money is the primary tool for survival in our world, so we kinda all want to think it's hard to acquire. But the reality is, the only reason this feels hard is because most people start in the wrong place. They start with the product....

Yo, Let me tell you what changes when the offer is right. And I don’t mean perfect.I mean right - or good enough if you prefer. The biggest shift isn’t more sales. It’s how calm everything feels. When demand is there, you stop guessing. You don’t sit there rewriting emails at midnight wondering if this is the angle.You don’t stare at Stripe refreshing like it owes you money.You don’t finish calls feeling like you somehow messed it up. Things just... move. People reply to emails with things...

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... Sales levels that...

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...

Yesterday I said this year only really changes if the offer does. Today, I want to be blunt about what happens when the offer isn’t right. This isn’t theory. I’ve personally dragged dying offers way longer than I should have, burning time, money, and energy trying to force something that wasn’t working. When you're in that place, the offer doens't just hurt your business. It leaks into everything else. Within the business, it usually looks like this... ... You’re always “working on...

Welcome to the first full work week of 2026. If you’re coming into the year unhappy with how 2025 finished, or you’re like me and want this year to be materially better, this matters. This is the time of year when everyone is... ... buying a new planner... mapping out their “path to success”... deciding which actions are finally going to turn their life around. But when you actually look at what people plan, it’s almost always too small to create real change. I’m already seeing posts about...

Yo! I'm taking a little break from emailing from tomorrow thanks to Christmas. If you're also celebrating, I hope you have a good one. But, before I go, I wanted to ask a Q that's heled me analyse what I'm doing and, more importantly, what I will be doing in 2026. That question is... "Are you aiming high enough or thinking big enough?" Cause I know I haven't. 2025 has been a hard year for so many people running businesses. Sales are down. Resistance is up. Stress is higher than ever before....

Yo, I recently shared this in GM+ (you can join us here for more convos on these topics), but also thought it might be useful for anyone who's thinking of testing ads for the first time, or growing to different platforms in the new year. ----- Wanted to share some of the things I’ve been working on with ads recently. This might be a long one. A little background. A couple of months back, I wanted to see if I could move some ad spend over to Google properties. A few reasons... Google has a...
