Random Chat, Thoughts, Posts, and/or Rants Thread
HOT! CHATI love simple. When I explain what I do to people they get it instantly. It's pretty handy to be able to get word-of-mouth referrals from *anybody* who knows what you do. Someone recently asked me why I don't do ads for eCommerce clients. Here's what I said: If I run ads for a company...- Andy Black

HOT! CHATYou can also do this running Google Ads, to your own domain(s). Sure, you need someone to pay the ad spend or you need to pay it yourself. Local lead gen still rocks.- Andy Black

HOT! CHATIt's not just that they're "Most Aware" . Often they Google with search terms such as "carpet cleaning scottsdale". Which I think means they're looking to get some carpets cleaned. In Scottsdale I believe. Oh, and they may be looking right now. I'm being facetious because I swear...- Andy Black

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Random Chat Thread...
CHAT - AI -Former database administrator here. Just the amount of data in a system can cause headaches. Everything can be working fine with no changes applied to the system, but the amount of data constantly grows so limits get hit and/or performance degrades. And if changes were to be applied to any...- Andy Black

HOT! CHAT"Your job in sales is to find out as soon as possible if the person in front of you sees the value in what you do, or just the cost. If it's just the cost then move on. Someone up the road will bite your hand off." (Blaise Brosnan) Every time I ignore those red flags I end up regretting it.- Andy Black

CHAT - AI -More "courses" will have AI chat components, where the subject matter expert trains an AI to assist their students. They will be behind paywalls or optin walls to prevent them getting scraped. @Antifragile is doing this already for his internal teams. I also think people will give away less...- Andy Black

GOLD! HOT! ASSERTIONWe had sliding drawers fitted under the atairs a few years ago. I remember talking to the tradesman doing it.

Theoretical vs Real Business Potential - What Can You Really Achieve?
QUESTIONIt boiled down to: do I do the work or teach people to do the work? I talk to people every day in or outside my business. The people I most want to spend time with and coach are my sons, and the lads on the football team I coach. Creating videos or content and teaching people how to do...- Andy Black

Theoretical vs Real Business Potential - What Can You Really Achieve?
QUESTIONI think this is a super important topic. I'm reminded of a few things: 1. We have superpowers and when we use them it's like we're in a slipstream and we move faster effortlessly. We often don't know what our superpowers are, and it's worth asking people who know us really well to fill in a...- Andy Black
