Yo! So I mentioned a while back that I want to move all my advertising to YouTube as I think it's a channel with a better future than Meta. This is kind of a good news / bad news situation. The bad news is I made exactly $0 from my YT ads. I wanted to see cashflow climb back up again so I jumped back into FB ads. The good news? I spun up a quick campaign with a small budget of £20 / day to test thw waters. After £100 in spend, I made over £300 back. Not too shabby. These ads were written by...

Yo! Have you noticed how complicated business advice has become? If you want to grow revenue, you’re told things like: "You need to post across seven accounts 4 times per day with perfectly optimised content." "Your content strategy must include blogs, podcasts, videos, and daily social posts." "You need to master SEO, email marketing, paid advertising, AND social media." With each new recommendation comes the stress and frustration of another item on your to-do list… another skill to master…...

Yo! A lot of business gurus recommend starting with a low-ticket offer. And their logic can sound pretty appealing. For instance, a low price makes it easier for new clients to say yes, while reducing their financial risk. It’s a way to demonstrate your expertise – and get clients hooked on you – before making a more expensive offer. Hell, I do a lot of this myself. But, if you've ever worked with me, you know that this low ticket strategy isn't where you start, it's actually the last piece...

Yesterday I mentioned how I'd built a whole front end marketing funnel in 2 days thanks to AI. (I also asked if you wanted some form of course on this and you said yes - so keep an eye out for that soon). Well, today I'm setting up ads to market that new funnel. And to help me, I created an AI ad creative agent. And it's wayyy better than I thought it would be. I just published a YT video showing how it actually works. if you don't want to watch that, then below I've dropped the actual...

I've never been good at turning off over the weekend. The weekend just been was no different. Over the 2 days I spent about 3-4 hours per day at my laptop. Why? I want to see if I can grow a new business in an industry where I have nothing - no connections, presence, or even experience. So, over those 2 days I used the... ... templates... systems... AI agents ... I've created to get the ball rolling. And in aound 8 hours of work, I created an entire front end funnel for a new niche. We're...

Yo! If you saw yesterday’s email, you’ll know I’m doubling down on growing my YouTube. One big reason? Video content is stupid versatile. FB ads and Insta posts are cool, but they usually die on the platform they’re made for. YouTube? That’s different. A couple weeks ago, I built a system using some custom AI agents. Now, in 60-90 minutes a week, I can: Plan a YouTube video Script it Record it Edit it Optimise it for YT reach Chop it into 7–10 shorts Turn it into 7–10 long-form text posts...
