    BRO-MARKETING! (Great Copy Selling Crap Products)

    MARKETING 
    Got it, that makes a lot more sense. Initially it sounded to me like you were complaining. Complaining is sort of a pet peeve to me, because consumers of everything are getting more and more lazy by the day, and that’s not healthy. Taking responsibility for your life is very important. So it’s...

    BRO-MARKETING! (Great Copy Selling Crap Products)

    Dude… you didn’t fall into any trap. You chose to buy that product, and as long as you got what it says on the tin you’re supposed to get… there’s no bro marketing involved. Everyone knows that when you market X, you market it with the results of your BEST students, not your worst. And I can...

    BRO-MARKETING! (Great Copy Selling Crap Products)

    MARKETING 
    If you can make money as a bro marketer, you can make money as a smart marketer too. Why not remove the liability of taking people’s money without fulfiling your contractual obligations? Like that’s stupid… you actually risk losing that money you just earned if they sue you. If you took their...

    What skills should I learn in 2024 ?

    IDEA 
    Apart from sales, these are all very vague. Like let’s say I want to practice communication. How do I do that? Or I want to practice leadership. How? Imo these are not really skills. Skills could be having vision — knowing what to do, what opportunities to go for. Or emotional control —...

    I agree, you need both community and debate. I don’t look at it as one or the other, and I don’t see you or say @AceVentures as my enemies. Heck, I spoke to AceVentures over Zoom, good guy, very intelligent. Doesn’t mean I don’t disagree with him on this topic, but I like the guy. Maybe because...

    No, I wouldn’t sell high ticket. That’s hard to sell. That’s what held me back from scaling coaching / consulting which I was selling for $8K-$12K Atm 70% of our clients are on our $987/mo service (this is up from around 60% 3 months ago). There is a minimum 3-month committment for it now. So...

    @rpeck90 – 4 years ago or so, I read a book called Built to Sell. I never recommend it if I'm asked, and it doesn't stand out in my mind, it's never been on any of my lists of recommended books on Discord or here, but looking back my thinking has been deeply influenced by that in terms of what...

    Well, the first thing is money. The first month last year when we exploded, I was handling 9 clients by myself in terms of management, while my partner did the copy. Things used to be different then though, because you could do a much bigger volume of outreach on LinkedIn. About 4x bigger than...

    Do you want to debate the fact that 80% of course purchases aren’t even OPENED properly, much less followed-through? Because I have actual numbers. Most buyers don’t get any value because they do F*ck all. It’s the same with the buyers of MJ’s book. I dare guess that 80% of them don’t do...

    Well, clearly we’re very different. You say it’s not about how fast you do it… but then you’re supposed to be on the “fast”lane. You say it’s not about money / success but “having the means to live freely and do whatever you want with your life”. That sounds more like 4-hour work week dribble...

    I don’t know a lot about either, but I have given their threads a glance. “Killing it” seems to be a huge exaggeration though. I’m not sure about Spenny’s actual numbers. It seems he sold 1000 or so of a $10 item with a 40% profit margin? Bottom line is they’re both incredibly tiny as...

    The issue is that it’s very hard to build a CENTS business as a newbie. If you’ve been in the startup world for 15 years, you were involved in scaling a few startups from the ground up, and so on, then maybe you have a sufficient combo of skills, know-how, connections, and industry-specific...

    I think this is a great idea. I always like to say that people will pay for value — and if they don’t pay, then they don’t truly need it.

    I doubt this. I've been in internet marketing for 12+ years, and I still can't tell for certain if a lot of products / courses are scams, merely by looking at their marketing. Some that LOOK LIKE scams are actually good products. And some that DON'T look like scams are actually terrible...
