    Intro + My "business" is just a 20k/mo job

    INTRO 
    I'd be interested in hearing more about how you grew your follower and content base to generate $2.5k/mo. I'm 1.5 years into my Youtube journey and that level of revenue would basically free me up to work on it full-time, so that's something I would love to learn how to do. Capitalizing on your...

    Launching a $60K Video Game in 4 Months

    EXECUTION 
    It's perfectly fine to build on the mobile market. There are lots more mobile gamers than PC gamers. As for Jake Birkett, my understanding is he had to jump through more hoops early on to finance projects, but these days I think his portfolio of games is generating enough for him and his wife to...

    Launching a $60K Video Game in 4 Months

    EXECUTION 
    Very cool! I'll be following this closely since I'll be helping our studio launch its indie game next year. I take it you've followed Chris Zukowski's work on videogame marketing? Also in terms of the reward per hour, I think it gets better the more you make successive games, assuming you get to...

    Starting and growing my "AI for business" newsletter on Beehiiv

    - AI - 
    It sounds like from Bence's initial research, his specific niche focusing on practical AI implementation for solopreneurs and small businesses is not saturated. Do you disagree?

    Growing Your Company - How Do You Hire A-Players?

    PEOPLE 
    A few other thoughts: Alex has also talked about how creating content has helped his business find much better fitting employees. Nowadays when someone wants to work with him, they've already consumed hours of his content and already have an affinity to his values and vision. This is one way...

    Growing Your Company - How Do You Hire A-Players?

    PEOPLE 
    Took me a while of going through a bunch of videos from my History on Youtube and checking the transcripts, but I finally found it. He says that hiring great talent is the biggest arbitrage opportunity available for businesses, and big businesses fight wars with each other over the best talent...

    Growing Your Company - How Do You Hire A-Players?

    PEOPLE 
    Steve Jobs has a great clip talking about hiring A players. Once you get like 5 A players, the group will become self-policing and you can just let them interview potential hires and decide if the 6th+ person is a good fit and an actual A player. Yes, it's worth paying above market rates. Alex...

    Not sure where to go from here...

    REAL ESTATE 
    I don't know about Graham Stephen and Grant Cardone. Graham made a lot of money investing, but maybe now he makes more from his podcast and educational content. Same for Grant. For Alex Hormozi, I know he definitely makes a shit ton more money from his businesses than he does from making...

    Easiest Business idea to EXECUTE?

    EXECUTION 
    One of the things that will enable you to succeed at any given business is that there's a barrier to entry that makes it hard for your would-be competitors to succeed in that domain. One way you can have an edge and make something easy for you but hard for others is if you consider your unique...

    The YouTube Chat Thread (and list of progress threads)

    GOLD! CHAT 
    I genuinely think long form is still the future. Shorts have their place but people are just hungry for wisdom, and it rarely comes in 60 second chunks. Alex Hormozi has also been posting 30-60 minute videos multiple times a week and his commenters love them so much more than bite-sized content...

    The YouTube Chat Thread (and list of progress threads)

    GOLD! CHAT 
    Hey Dave, I'd genuinely recommend just getting started! It's never been easier to record something and post it. You can do it all straight from your phone. Ever since I subscribed to Andy's channel a few days ago, I get recommended his shorts every day, and I was really impressed by the quality...

    Very cool! You might find Stefan's work interesting, since he's been working to build AI apps since 2019, before ChatGPT blew up in popularity. His website and an intro video he made. Something you could consider for your newsletter is interviewing people like him and putting the top 5 questions...

    Just Turned 29 and Ready to Roll

    INTRO 
    So cool that you mentioned Pat Flynn! I only recently decided to focus on entrepreneurs as my niche. It was thanks to this video from Pat. I made a Google Doc and wrote down answers to every question he asked about target audience.

    Just Turned 29 and Ready to Roll

    INTRO 
    Thanks so much for sharing your story! I'm 28 years old and also in Canada. My career hasn't been nearly as successful as yours. I have no debt, but I also don't have a paid off home or any major assets of value. It's great that you've tried so many businesses already. Each one taught you some...

    HOT! CHAT 
    That is scary... Collectivism creeping into domains that SHOULD be private, like how a family manages itself. I spoke with a mother of 5 about this over a year ago, where she said the government has no say in how she runs her family, especially because if the government makes a decision for her...

    My favourite example of scientist turned businessperson is Eliyahu Goldratt. His insights from physics ended up making him one of the best business consultants out there, and he's written some excellent books. A lot of great innovations seem to come from experts in one field coming over to...

    If you can afford it (I think it cost me about $550 CAD/mo), the Blueprint protocol is a great place to start for a general longevity solution.

    Starting an Online UX School

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks Bence! Our program isn't AI-enhanced at the moment so we won't use that keyword, but if we do add any AI-enhancement in the future we can certainly add that to our copywriting. You make a good point about helping people find clients as freelancers. That sounds like something Fox Web...
