I'm thinking about starting a class about cold email. Last year, I sent 182,900 emails with an open rate of 76.4% and a reply rate of 3.1% on average. I used to think cold email was a horrible sales channel. For the most part, it is because 99% of copywriting is horrible. If

Want to know how many orders your competitors are handling a month? It's pretty simple: Place a order on the first day of the month and last day of the month then subtract order numbers between your first and last order. In Shopify, orders are numerical and can't be changed.

All these founders tooting online courses are embarrassing to me. Most boast we did $250k in course revenue. They hide the fact that 90% of sales don't finish their course. In my opinion, it's a weak way to make money. If you had past success, give that value for free.

If you're debating an expense, inverse the cost and the benefit. "Am I willing to pay $250 a month in order to be in shape?" becomes "Am I willing to be out of shape in exchange for being paid $250 a month?" This thought experiment helps you make decisions that are obvious 🧐

Feeling grateful to have hung on this beach last week. One of the only places I've traveled where it actually is better than the IG pics. And Indonesian people are incredible, the nicest and most genuine 🙌

My grandpa turns 97 today🤯 Want to learn his FREE hack for a long healthy life? It's simple: exercise. Every morning he stretches. Every afternoon he plays tennis, bikes, or swims in the ocean. Do something active today for him!

Officially launched the most crowdfunded hotel ever... Many people think Indiegogo was a huge boost for Bubble Hotels- In actuality, only 7% of our funds came from the site itself and most were already searching for us. The magic came from our community, not the platform.
