Email marketing works like a funnel:

First you give something for free.

Then, you educate them.

After that, you present your product/service.

Then, you convince them to buy.

Finally, you make them buy again.

It becomes 10x easier when you look at it like this.

Common marketing advice:

“You should build an audience where your customers are”

F*ck that.

Customers hang out everywhere. You should build an audience on the platform *you* enjoy and that plays to your team’s natural strengths.

Why?

If it’s fun you’ll keep showing up.

When I first started building internet businesses, nothing worked.

It was miserable.

I’d have this “brilliant” startup idea. Pour all my energy into it. And it just didn’t hit.

I changed a few things and my luck 10x-ed with it.

Honestly, I'd be working BestBuy right now… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Where I learn SEO. 🧵

1️⃣ Doing Affiliate SEO.  This is hands-down the most challenging, and thus extremely high ROI, form of earning money with SEO.

You’re up against some of the best SEOs on the planet, not to mention Google themselves who don’t care too much for you.

I suppose designating "sectors of focus" for your VC firm could be harmless, so long as it's only something you tell LPs and not something you start to believe yourself.

“You are great at execution, the team loves you, but you need to be more strategic”

Hearing this feedback from your direct manager or your skip manager can be very confusing.

And for highly capable product people who consistently get things done, this theme of “you need to be… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

How to build a rabid audience of fans:

Get so specific that you are the only person on Earth that can talk about that topic.

And to niche down, pull these 7 levers

1. By price
2. By problem
3. By industry
4. By location
5. By situation
6. By experience
7. By demographic
