    Is "local" still a trust factor in 2026?

    MARKETING QUESTION 
    If I had an email from this email address/name then I'd assume they're trying to sell me something and I'd likely not even open the email - regardless of whether they put a location after their job title. For years I accepted all LinkedIn connection requests, until people with titles like...

    We had a client in the US that fixed or installed new toilets. Yard signs worked really well for them. Try it? What's the best that can happen?

    I don't know how used to forums you are. Think of them as communities where your goal is to build relationships with fellow community members, by engaging in natural conversations. May I suggest you observe how people communicate with each other in here, and try to come across less like...

    Is "local" still a trust factor in 2026?

    MARKETING QUESTION 
    Personally, I don't follow up. I'd rather work with those that bite my hand off when I tell them what I do. I screen for it, and if I have to follow up then it tells me it's not important enough for them at this moment in time. And this is why business is so much fun... there's so many ways to...

    Yes, most business owners like to make more sales. So you were D2D and some of the businesses you visited offered you work because you can do sales? Sounds like there's an opportunity in there somewhere.

    Is "local" still a trust factor in 2026?

    MARKETING QUESTION 
    Funny you say this. If I'm on a website and spot something not working then I always email a short note with a screenshot and a circle and arrow highlighting whatever's not working. They always reply to thank me. I think I even sent you a note once about a small typo on one of your sales...

    Can you pitch your own product or service? ??? You're so young. And it's about the journey, not the destination. When I did motorbike trips to the South of France it was never about being in St Tropez or Cannes. The fun was in the squiggly bits on the map, and the unexpected diversions and...

    I subscribe to TLDR AI which I skim read, and to Dylan Davis's 30 days AI series which I read all of. Rex Woodbury has long essays on tech on his Substack. A bit too long for me tbh so I'll likely unsubscribe soon. I also subscribed to Wayne Goldsmith, who coaches sports coaches, an...

    It's getting people into it though, and I think that's great. It's like when I built my first website for an electrician friend, sat back, and nothing happened. No visitors, no phone calls. "Oh. I best figure out how to get people to the page." Cue more and more learnings the further I...

    I asked Gemini if "industrialised education" came about with the industrial revolution where they tried to mass produce industrial workers using a one-to-many education system, and if prior to that it was predominantly the apprenticeship system where youngsters learned more one-to-one with...
