content marketing & lead generation
I was chatting with a builder recently. He’s extremely knowledgeable, and I would say the top 1% at what he does. But he does, at times, lose work to cheaper competitors. That’s why we have not only redone the copy on his web site, we’re also creating a regular flow of blog content… Which is […]
Can you see a problem or opportunity ahead which your prospects can’t? Something that would make their jaw drop, which you’d like to warn them about? Then “the shock ahead” headline is the perfect hook… For instance, imagine you sell air-conditioners. You’ve done your research and can see this is going to be one of […]
It felt like a slap in the face. I thought I was fit and healthy, until I was invited to do a workout with a family member. My core was weak, and I couldn’t keep up with many of the exercises. Yet before that moment I had no idea. It was like a forced audit, […]
I put everything I had into it… but I was still struggling. At the age of 17, I cut my teeth with cold calling. And when I started my second business at the age of 24, I went back to it. But my prospects were (understandably) skeptical. And it was a slow burn. Had I […]
It’s one of the biggest mistakes I ever made in business. I put all my eggs in one basket. I had one big client. One main source of income. One stream of leads. And when that contract ended… I was screwed. I scrambled. I stressed. And I told myself: Never again. That’s when I learned […]
Are you ready to leverage AI to Attract High-Value Clients, Automate Tedious Tasks, and Develop High-Converting Content? I know there has been a lot of hype around AI and most of the AI tools out there are junk. So how do you cut through the noise and only get the knowledge you need to integrate […]
Later this month, I’m going to be heading to Brisbane for Francesca Moi’s Level Up Business Conference where we’re going to be covering everything that’s needed to stay on top of your game in 2024… And that’s never been more important, particularly with the way technology is moving. Right now, there are two choices. Level up, or […]
I received a lead from someone the other day who has been on my email list for over 10 years. That’s right… An entire decade. And odds are, he’ll turn into a quality client, moving from a caterpillar to a butterfly. Yet I’ve often used the “report” strategy for clients, who if someone doesn’t convert right away […]
The before / after ad opening is not relegated to weight loss, and those in “visual” industries. Think about it: what everyone wants when they buy a product or service is to go from where they are to where they want to be. i.e. let’s say you offer SEO as a service like Peter B Butler from […]
Recently, I dove into Keith Cunningham’s “The Road Less Stupid.” A gem of a book, and it introduced me to a concept that, while not entirely new, was certainly underutilised in my routine: “Thinking Time.” Sure, I think a lot. When crafting copy, strategizing in meetings, or planning my week. But setting aside dedicated, conscious […]
