Last updated on May 13, 2022 - My Free Marketing newsletter 👀
Today I’m going to show you exactly how I run an 8-figure company.
This business stuff takes time.
We’ve tested TONS of things over the years.
The majority of things don’t work. 🙁
BUT a few things work great.
So we learn, then do more of what works best.
Here are my top takeaways for you to scale your business.
VIDEO #1 — Have a clear numerical goal with a deadline.
Revenue, email list, etc.
#2 — Raise the bar to “8-figure decisions”.
Understand your opportunity costs of each decision
#3 — 10x the things that work.
Test many things, then do more of what works best
Ads, affiliates, email marketing, etc.
Get started now
#4 — Do weekly pulses.
How are we doing against our only 1 goal?
How are leading indicators going?
Notice trends over time
Email signups, traffic, refund rate, conversation rate.
#5 — Optimize the 80%.
Build a great foundation of effectiveness….
Mouse trackpad, phone, internet, laptop, etc.
Learn to type faster ( Keybr , Ratatype , 10 fastfingers )
#6 — Sharpen your daily tools.
Gmail/Outlook, Zoom, etc.
Gmail
Enable keyboard shortcuts (shift + ?)
“/” takes you to the search bar
Learn 1 a day
Zoom
CMD + A (mute)
Space bar (temporarily unmute)
CMD + I (invite)
#7 — Optimize your sleep.
Memory foam mattress
Oura Ring
Ooler Sleep System
Weighted Blanket
JCP Satin Sheets

Tinted windows
#8 — Setup your ideal weekly calendar.
We all have the same amount of time in a day
Color code calendar so you can see how you’re allocating your time
Auto repeat activities (reduces mental energy)
Reduce weekly meetings
Think, what are you looking forward to this week?
#9 — People are the differentiators.
#10 — The 10 year rule.
Do something for 10 years to become a millionaire
Pick a tidal wave to ride
Find something solving your own problem or that’s fun for you
