    Growing from $500k to $1.5 Million in ARR with D2D (Landscape & Pest Control)

    SCALING 
    Great strategy! Door to door is a tough nut to crack, but can be so worth it. Don't overlook including EDDM and door hangers as well. If you're using a CRM like GorillaDesk or GoHighLevel, Facebook Instant Forms + Automated SMS responses can create a nice filter/springboard for your VAs to crush...

    Starting a Digital Marketing Agency

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Amazing job taking action! I run an agency in the pest control niche and let me tell you... It's no surprise to me that pest control operators are calling you back. There's maybe one reputable agency that is competing against us. Everyone else has horror stories lined up against them. Quick...

    Google Just Killed My Website

    MARKETING 
    Google doesn't hate you, and they don't care if you hate them. If you're cordial and explain that you misunderstood their documentation, they'll help you. They don't go out of their way to help because, in the eyes of Google, they've already given business owners everything they could possibly...

    Google Just Killed My Website

    MARKETING 
    SEO is not a cost-per-click process. "Ad word credits" - known as Google Ads - is where you're going to spend money on a Cost per Click basis. That's what the 39Celsius article was laying out. Losing the effects of your local SEO can lead you to spending $xxx per click on Google Ads. (it's not...

    Google Just Killed My Website

    MARKETING 
    Your anger is wildly misplaced. If you relied this heavily on your Google Business Profile, then you violated the commandment of control. That's on you, not Google. Sure, having your GBP disabled sucks, but at the end of the day it's Google's platform. They'll do whatever the F*ck they want...

    What are Some Other Ways to get Businesses to Make More Besides Web Design?

    QUESTION 
    There are two good ways to go about getting the answer to your question... 1. Ask yourself what your clients need. Who are you clients? What problems do they face? If you don't know the answer to these, you probably aren't ready to branch out yet. If you know what problems your clients face...

    Cold email reply rates suck...and I'm an email lead gen business.

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    First and foremost - great work taking action and sending emails. Too many people don't even get that far. I've sent thousands upon thousands of cold emails, and while I won't claim to be a guru or "cold email king," I'm confident in saying I have a good sense of what works. The reason you're...

    I'm Building An SEO Agency

    EXECUTION 
    Best of luck! Will be following the progress. Can't emphasize enough the importance of collecting and displaying reviews from your initial clients. This will move mountains in terms of how easy future sales go down. Quick hack for SOPs - find a Youtube video that summarizes how to do what you...

    I'm going to ask Mj if he'd like me to introduce myself in private first. Then if he approves, I'll make an announcement of who I am.

    INTRO 
    OP I hope you are well. If you feel you are in danger please reach out to non-police support lines in your county or state.

    How many of you play video games?

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    I get some of my best thinking done while gaming. I keep a notebook on hand when I'm playing Rocket League just to jot down quick ideas. And then Overwatch if I want to not be able to think about anything at all

    Can't catch a break with Tiktok ads - $1,047.22 lost

    MARKETING 
    These LOOK like ads. Ad creative should be contextual to the platform you're running it on. Tiktok is also a trend-hungry platform. Can you incorporate any up-and-coming trends into your ads? (Current trends are already too far behind) As @mikecarlooch said - these ads are an instant scroll for...

    Entrepreneurship and money doesn't solve your problems?

    MINDSET 
    Achieving financial freedom isn't about doing the same shit day after day to maintain the cashflow. It's about building systems that maintain that cashflow for you so you can do whatever you want. You really have nothing else you'd rather be doing, that you can't do right now because you've got...

    Father-figure abandonment and entrepreneurship...

    Not me directly, but two previous employers and a few clients I've had over the years are close fits to this trend. I've noticed alcoholism being a major factor among the parents of some of these colleagues. In those for whom alcoholism appears to be factor, I've also seen neurotic needs for...

    7 Figure Agency by Josh Nelson, Legit?

    GURUS 
    Josh Nelson absolutely teaches a programmable, structured way to build an agency. His approach is not far off from how I've built two agencies so far. I read the 7 Figure Agency Roadmap AFTER I had started my companies, and was thrilled to see that his approach was almost identical to how I run...

    WARNING! RANT!

    RANT 
    Ok... You've recognized there's a problem (or several) with the systems you exist within. You have two options: change the systems or leave the systems. You should be ruthlessly dedicated to doing one of those two things, and the faster, more realistic option is leaving those systems behind...

    Advertising on social media (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat)

    MARKETING 
    Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, and TikTok are the big winners for our clients. Facebook skews a bit older and TikTok skews a bit younger, but both platforms are widely successful for most demographics. The most important thing to consider when creating for different platforms is the native...

    Advertising on social media (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat)

    MARKETING 
    This is a limiting belief. 75% of Tiktok's userbase is distributed in the under 55 age range. It has aged up incredibly quickly and can be effective for just about any business (outside of products that specifically target retirees).

    Ringless Voicemails?

    MARKETING 
    Last I knew of these, they were illegal and people were advocating against them due to a few lawsuits. I've been seeing ads for voicemail drop services though, so maybe something has changed? Curious to see what others have to say!

    How I Hit 5-Figures Per Month in 90 Days During C0VlD-19

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks!! Physical therapy is overrated hahaha. I took one look at the actual work I'd be doing, and I turned and RAN! I wanted to be a pro athlete therapist. Turns out, the market doesn't really need more of those. The market needs nursing home physical therapists. No thanks! If the initial...

    How I Hit 5-Figures Per Month in 90 Days During C0VlD-19

    EXECUTION 
    You've got it! $500 for the initial consult - if we don't find a way to improve tangible returns on ads then the money is refunded. It's an excellent "foot in the door" relationship builder. I based it on Jordan Belfort's straight line sales system in which one of his objection breakers is...
