    Superb's adventure in finding the fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    Instead of building a landing page and collecting emails, why not just get into conversation with people in forums, Facebook groups, and wherever they are online or in-person? You don't need a landing page, and you don't need to collect emails. Reply to something they posted and maybe then...

    Maybe showing your face is an indirect barrier to entry

    I listened to an interesting podcast where they said that the longer and unedited or lightly edited content that humans excel at is exactly the type of content that AI struggles with at the moment. It's requires more processing power/tokens because it's longer, and it contains all the mannerisms...

    My fastlane progress: Find better hourly jobs in your area

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Lots of people search for jobs on Google too. The searches are very granular "<jobtype> jobs <location>", CPCs are low if you were to run Google Ads, and searchers are pretty motivated to sign up to receive alerts of new jobs coming up that match their criteria.

    Hi I am Fa - former tech professional helping people to cope with stress

    INTRO 
    Welcome. As an engineer you will be very tempted to build things, and you're also trained to solve problems before they arise. Those tendencies and skills can be an Achilles heel. Hopefully this helps without teaching you to suck eggs...

    CHAT - AI - 
    The national news headline here in Ireland is of 5 teenagers who stole a car, drove the wrong way up a motorway, and crashed into a car going the other way. The occupants of the other car are all in hospital with serious injuries, and all 5 joy riders were killed. Apparently it was done to get...

    This Hormozi AI I found is unreal | Over 2000 transcribed videos

    GURUS 
    People have used AI Andy to get *my* take on how to build Google Ads campaigns, which differs greatly from what vanilla AI spits out. I ask vanilla AI questions and shake-my-head hard at its answers. I think the Google Ads gurus are talking sh*te, and I can't be arsed correcting them. Not...

    Step-by-Step Walkthrough - Launching a Web Agency from 0 to 1, Offering Low Cost Websites With No Upfront Cost

    - AI - 
    1) Don't worry so much about whether it's fastlane or not. Start, then scale. 2) $100/mth per site built using a template could well be fastlane. 3) $100 on-off per site built using a template could also be fastlane, if you add up/cross sells to it.

    A small computer system manufacturer can't afford to pay us to run Google Ads for them ... because they just spent £50k on a website rebuild (which also lost all their SEO rankings!!). I think they paid through the nose for the website, but there is some business logic as they're chasing...

    Figuring Out LinkedIn (Sales, Prospecting, More)

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    I've not posted on LinkedIn in a while, but a new client just gave me a LinkedIn testimonial so I figured I'd post about it. I've never published a screenshot of a testimonial so I'm curious how this will do. It's only 4 minutes old but has 3 Likes and 1 Repost already. The last testimonial I...

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION 
    I didn't run ads for renters, but for property sales. Searches are often very granular. "houses <town>" "property <subhurb>" "apartments <street>" Etc Conversion rates are low as it's high ticket, and people often search for months if not years. But CPCs are typically very low too...

    Going Fastlane Like My Life Depends On It.. (continued)

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION 
    I'm curious if Zillow, apts.com, etc get their leads from Google (paid or organic), and how "long-tail" (granular and specific) those searches are. I ran the ads for house sales for daft.ie, one of the largest property portals in Ireland. Keywords and ads are super specific for property...

    The "Warm" Path to Building Your List: Why I Prefer Using Instagram/tiktok/YouTube as a Filter Before Asking for a Single Email

    I only skimmed this thread but wanted to chime in. I don't run social media ads but like Laurel Portier's strategy of posting content that calls out your ICP and gets them to comment on the post. If they comment then you message them. Laurel specialises in posting short videos and often...
