(legal) addiction made easy
This will change how you show up on social...
Itās time to get more of the right people addicted to YOU.
Addicted to your:
Emails
Offers
Life-altering impact
Notice how social media isnāt on the list.
Why?
Itās hard to create (good and legal) addiction when your audience is distracted by random comments, nonstop ads, and instant changing algorithms.
I just had a chat with a CEO.
He couldnāt hold back cussinā as he shared in pure frustration that āmarketing isnāt creating the flowā.
The flow he wants: social media/website strangers ā booked calls ā clients.
Then the convo got into the real meat nā tatters:
ā ā ā ā ā ā
Me: How exactly are you growing trust in this flow?
CEO: Well they can read everything we post online. Itās all there on our website.
Me: Whenās the last time you read everything on anyoneās website?
CEO: Good point. Yeah, I see Iām expecting to people to do exactly what I donāt.
Me: Consider just making two simple shifts to your flow:
Social media/website strangers ā trust-growing CEO to CEO emails ā āno sales callā qualifying process ā better clients.
CEO: But we already send out our weekly company newsletter. Isnāt that enough?
Me: Howās that working for you?
CEO: Ha! Ouch! Yeah, even I donāt read our stuff. OKā point landed. Help me fix this.

Thereās a counterintuitive email strategy that works to create more consulting clients.
I stopped offering it as a service because, frankly, consultants āmake up storiesā about what their email list wants.
Once a week.
Once a month.
āIf it were meā¦ā (spoiler: It aināt you.)
Or theyāre too afraid to āloseā subscribers who are already checked out.
(10%-30% barely open⦠the other 70%-90% ghost/delete).
Side tripā¦
I recall a CMO (who was job hunting) telling his CEO emailing more than once a week wonāt move the needle.
The newsletter open rate was a pathetic 3.1%.
They had bored their subscribers to death.
Due to āmade up fearful storiesā they agreed to a 3x/week CEO to CEO trust-growing series for 90 days.
The goal: See if we could create a miracle and raise āLazarusā subscribers from the dead.
What happened?
Day 1: Open rate went up 4X.
Day 36: 14 booked calls.
Day 82: Six-figure deal won.
CMO: Quit and found another job.
Me: Smirking with that āI told you soā look.
Iāve decided instead of telling you about strategyā¦
Iām just going to show you (almost) every day.
You can judge for yourself the vibe⦠the energy⦠the clarity⦠the progress you feel.
(And if youāre so inclined⦠pick up, what Iāll be putting down.)
It starts this Sunday at 7pm EST.
Nothing to do.
Just watch.
Read andā¦
Enjoy the pleasant dopamine drip.
Talk soon.
