    I’m Reading Atlas Shrugged; You’re Invited!!!!

    HOT! 
    Would love to join this book discussion and share our thoughts. I heard about Atlas Shrugged for the first time on this forum and it's more than clear that it is a must read. Although I know it would be better for me personally to have some guidance while reading this particular book and learn...

    If you could only pass on one life lesson to everyone on this forum, what would it be?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Focus more on things that change very, very slowly or not at all.

    I think I was a little lazy, should've explained some points more. Not sure I responded your questions in the right way, do I have to quote or reply, still need to find this out. I Put some Bold on it to be sure you'll find the answers. Hope everything is clear now for you, cause this is a...

    Thanks @jcvlds ! No I use the copy for my own ads and send them to my Shopify and FBA. But actually I should send them only to my Shopify if I want to think long term. But then my sales will drop for a couple of months. And that's where upsells do their work (again copy -> email marketing).

    Will answer all your questions by tomorrow @Late Bloomer ! Which one are you reading now? Finished this week Ultimate Sales Letter. Also a hell of a great read. I find myself reading the same principles over and over again. Which is not a bad thing, but it will probably influence my order of...

    Anyone else addicted to checking stats?

    When did you start this business? It's normal behavior in the beginning. It's our candy store dude! It's like when you buy a new thing, the first days/weeks you're all excited about it and then it will fade off. I had even let my mood depend on it.. Than you're way too emotionally attached...

    CA$HVERTISING summary: Simply one of those books that should be on your desk. I may even say that you only need to read this one book to see your sales go up. You get all the knowledge you have to know and it’s so easy to instantly apply it. That being said. You won’t become an expert with...

    Great notes again @Late Bloomer. You put a lot of value in this thread! Thank you for that. Haha I asked myself the same question as @Argue. It seems like you're a very good and quick reader. I finished Cashvertising and will make tomorrow a readable version of my notes. Currently reading...

    Quick update after week #1: Because it's been very busy I still haven't finished Cashvertising. Will finish any day soon. Will definitely have a look at the Porter's 5 Forces, never heard of it. Thanks @Late Bloomer for the awesome notes. Love how structured they are and how in depth they are!

    Have finished Scientific Advertising yesterday, here’s my view on this book: This book is in my opinion about the fundamentals of advertising. A great one to start with. Every topic hammers on the fact that you have to tweak your copy to keep improving it. Hopkins wants you to use the ‘Cost...

    A great view you have on this matter Late Bloomer. Will definitely order breakthrough advertising now. I'm also convinced that this challenge won't make me an expert. I just want to complete it for my own business and businesses in the future. It's a great beginning in my opinion, I have no...

    It was from Jack Zerby, but I don't find it anymore. Will look for it more tonight. I'll keep you updated. Update: Found it already. It was on Skillshare, sorry my bad.

    Good idea Eddie Temple. Because I'm into e-commerce my goal will be a bit different. I Hope to sell more products with the same amount I daily spent on ads. As Argue told you, it's the Gary Halbert List. Only Cashvertising and Ultimate Sales Letter are not on his list. I added these 2 because...

    So the challenge is not about 30 days. It's about doing everything mentioned within this challenge. I don't think we'll be loosers when we did this challenge eventually in 50 days or so.. None the less I will do this in 30 days if it's not harming my learning process.

    A couple of years ago I read a thread from @oldscool. That is how I got to know what Copywriting actually was. So all credits go to @oldscool. I have followed one Udemy course on copy to get going, which gave me a big ROI. Now I want to take my biz to the next level and I’m convinced that...

    Growing your Instagram account, strategy and discussion

    NOTABLE! SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    Just heard something I'm not happy about and wanted to share this with you guys. You all probably use a planner for Instagram? I use Hootsuite to plan my posts weeks ahead. Apparently Instagram's algorithm doesn't like planner apps and gives you less reach in return.. Bummer.

    The Benefits of College (other than making you more likely to get a job)

    HOT! 
    I do not think you should stay only for the reason to gain knowledge. There are a lot of benefits college has besides the knowledge, as some are already mentioned above: - In college you 'learn' to do things you don't like. This is part of life, there will always be things you don't like to do...
