Sometimes that's because your prospect needs help diagnosing their real problem and in this ep...

Do you think about who you're buying from and why they might or might not be the right guide.

And especially those who're teaching beginners how to begin when they are at 100x the revenue. They are so distant...

But is that what really works? Not really. When people are evaluating whether or not to invest they need to feel like it's the best investment and they'll do that because they get value and feel it.

My superpower this year is making quick decisions and implementing changes just as f...

In this episode I give the breakdown of why small & predictable margins are the real s...

That's it! I'm not putting pressure on myself to get on all the socials just because i know it would be "good for visibility". I'm someone who likes to go deep on things, so trying to do broad, short fleeting things is counter-intuitive to me and takes up the bandwidth I have for the stuff I really like to do and in the quality way my brand reputation rests on. I explain all of that in this episod...
