People Dumber Than You Are Making Millions 


This was the title of a YouTube video I saw.

Ok, yah got me to click…

I’ll be your Huckleberry.

The video went on to talk about how it’s not about whose the smartest or most connected.

Do those help?

You bet.

But…

The number one thing separating successful entrepreneurs was their speed of execution.

They weren’t:

- Afraid to make a mistake 
- Endlessly theorizing 
- All hat. No cattle

The would:

- Have an idea
- Execute idea
- Iterate idea

If it didn’t work out they would move on.

Lesson: Test your idea first to get proof of concept. Everthing else is secondary.

Hire Abroad To Grow Your Business

Want 10k followers on LinkedIn?

(Do this instead)


Fans > Follwers

You want to develop loyal fans.

They will…

Buy form you.
Ride and die for you.
Help you spread your message.

10k followers is a vanity metric.

99% of them will never buy from you or do business with you.

If you want to build loyal fans…

Show up consistently 
Genuinely care
Be real

Do this for a year and your guranteed to start building a fan base.

Don’t and you will become a commodity.

Raise your minimum investment to $100,000 now (Here's Why)


$50k minimum investment is standard.

It's vanilla 
It's boring
It's sitting through endless software updates.

You deserve better.

You're about that alpha energy—make sure your pricing screams it too. 

Step up, know you're worth.

Watch the market respond. 

Remember, you set the tone. 💪

P.S. How would raising your minimum investment change the game for you?

Here's How I Got Featured in Top Publications Without Spending a Dime


Alright, let’s cut straight to the chase. 

I’ve been featured in big names like...

Econo Times 
US News Weekly
National Real Estate Investor

All for the low, low price of absolutely nada. 

And guess what? 

You can do it too.

Here’s the blue print:

1. Sign Up for HARO: 

Head over to Help A Reporter Out (HARO) and sign up as a source. 

It won’t cost you a penny.

2. Eyes on Your Inbox: 

HARO drops three emails daily about opportunities in your niche. 

Spot one that fits? 

Shoot your shot fast.

3. Nudge Them: 

Sent your pitch? Cool. 

Give it two days, then send a polite follow-up. 

This little bump can push your email right back to the top of their pile.

4. Play the Waiting Game: 

If a reporter picks you as a source, they’ll hit you up with a link to the article once it’s live.

P.S. What’s your dream publication to be featured in?

P.P.S I'm working on a Publication Press Kit Template to send to potential sponsors and news outlets. If you're interested in seeing it when it's done comment "PR" below and I'll add you to the list. 

Read this if you lack confidence online...

 

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been on-again, off-again with social media more times than you’d care to admit 

You see people crushing it. 
You see Gary Vee telling you to post 4x a day
You see it changing lives 

And…

You tell yourself you can do it too. 

You then open up your MacBook Air to check your latest post to find:

Zero likes
No comments
Nada

It stings, even if you tell yourself it’s all good.

After repeating this vicious cycle you quit 


Sound familiar?

Here’s the problem…
…You ready for it?

You care too much what people think about your content. 

You say your goal is to “Grow your business”

But, let’s be real…

You’re hung up on the vanity metrics. 

This turns you into a commodity and you become replaceable. 

Luckily, it doesn’t have to be this way. 

There’s a way to position yourself as the apex predator and stand out from the noise. 

Ready for it…

Authenticity. 

No, I’m not talking about the raw raw BS stuff you see on LinkedIn. 

I’m talking about showing people who you REALLY are. 

I've had tons of calls with real estate investors who come off as authentic and full of life. 

You'd think we're about to become fast friends. 

But… 

Then I take a look at their online posts and it's a total letdown.

They sound nothing like themselves. 

If being your true authentic self scares you then good. 

It should damn it - that’s where growth happens. 

So, how do you start showing up as your authentic self?

H͟e͟r͟e͟’͟s͟ ͟3͟ ͟t͟h͟i͟n͟g͟s͟ ͟I͟’͟v͟e͟ ͟d͟o͟n͟e͟ ͟t͟o͟ ͟h͟e͟l͟p͟ ͟m͟e͟ ͟f͟i͟n͟d͟ ͟m͟y͟ ͟t͟r͟u͟e͟ ͟v͟o͟i͟c͟e͟:͟

1. Start Small and Personal 

Don’t try to conquer Rome in a day. 

Begin with small, personal stories that reflect your real experiences. 

Talk about.. 

A small win
A deal you lost
A lesson you learned the hard way 


2. Consistency > Perfection 

You don’t need to make perfect content. 

What you need is to show up consistently. 

Decide on a schedule you can handle, even if it’s just once a week, and stick to it. 

3.Be Bold. Be You 

If you’ve got a quirky sense of humor, a unique way of explaining things, or a hobby that you’re passionate about, let that come through in your content. 

People gravitate to originality.

Being yourself is your greatest asset.

That’s it. 

Do these for 6 months everyday and you will start to develop unshakeable confidence online. 

P.S. As I’m writing this I’m currently on a cruise to Split, Croatia and hope you found this valuable. If so let me know below. 

You see this guy standing here? 

He’s a legend (Here’s why)


I was walking along the jam packed boardwalk in Split, Croatia 🇭🇷 and spotted this dude staring at the sun.

At first, I thought he was homeless and on drugs.

But…

I was curious how long he could stay there so I just watched.

5 minutes went by

And…

Nothing happened.

This dude was a statue just basking in the sun with a massive smile on his face.

He was fully present in the moment.

He didn’t care what other people l thought.

And you know what?

He was the happiest guy out there.

It was a great reminder to be where you feet are.

Enjoy the moment
Relax
Listen

“If you take life too seriously you will never get out alive.” Van Wilder

My Grandma hated ATM's when they first came out in 1967 
 
What she told me next shocked me... 
 
 
"Why would I use a machine for cash when I can go inside and interact with a teller?" 
 
She trusted a personal connection over an ATM. 
 
Today it's the exact opposite. 
 
People trust... 
 
- Big portfolios 
- Follower count 
- Online reviews 
- And Blue check marks 
 
Over... 
 
- MSM 
- Diplomas 
- Experience 
- And a handshake 
 
Gaining trust isn't a one-size-fits-all deal. 
 
But, get dis... 
 
There's one thing you can't shortcut or fake: 
 
Being real... 
...And being authentic. 
 
That's the key. 
 
Without it you won't be won't go far online or in business. 
 
Do you struggle with growing an authentic brand online? 
 
Not seeing the results you know you deserve? 
 
Don't worry you're not alone. 
 
I gotchu. 
 
This Sunday, keep an eye on your inbox! 
 
I'm rolling out my "Authentic Brand Builders" framework in the newsletter. 
 
This is the same strategy that ramped up my followers by 700 in just 30 days. 
 
It's all about setting you apart in your niche. 
 
Make sure to grab it and now!

Bitcoin will hit $1,000,000 by 2030

(But Nobody Will Tell You This)


"Bitcoin Won't Save You"

What you'll end up doing:

Obsessing over charts
Crunching profit scenarios
Binge-watching crypto gurus on YouTube

All in the quest to strike it rich. 

And, yeah, it's a massive time sink (been there, done that).

But here's the real deal: 

You should be diving deep into...

Sales
Marketing
Persuasion

Why?

Betting on yourself is the best investment you can make. 

"Real Wealth isn't just HODLing; it's BUILDING" 

Focus on creating value.

Let your bitcoin be the cherry on top. 

Freedom isn't bought - It’s built

Build.Every.Day 🚀

P.S. Tell me you own bitcoin without telling me you own bitcoin.
