Enough is enough.
We've talked about this forever.
If you're a past student you're getting an email this afternoon about this and a bunch of other updates.
Hows that Wordpress site treating you brother?
How’s the plugin stack?
All 47 of them up to date?
Which ones haven't updated?
You ok man?
Bro was a one man content machine even before AI
New Youtube video is out:
How to Become a One Person Content Machine
Entire Youtube including the motion graphics all edited with AI: youtu.be/Aq-saHaIlEw
The bros @stevenbaterina @omartheecreator continue to shred these thumbs
Which one winning?
What we really is need more agents so I’m raising $20M to create yet another way to do things that I can already do 10 other ways.
could days in 👀
longtail never dies 😈
I had a lil web app that used to do $15k/mo ish
All affiliate $ was beautiful.
It went off a cliff overnight and it's been sitting there getting hundreds of clicks per month from Chat GPT with basically dead content on it.
I had some tokens to burn so I gave Claude all the history and told it to rebuild it, fire up the APIs, and add real content content to see if it has any life.
Will check it again in a month and report back

New Cut30 UX tracks the HW you posted to track your progress and collects coach feedback for you to keep forever (after Slack shuts down)
Been building LFG
I’ve got a friend who sells hundreds of thousands of $ in bean and cheese burritos on each drop.
Only in her city.
Each drop is an IG post or 2.
Short-form converts like crazy.
Short form content doesn’t convert scrollers to buyers.
It doesn’t.
Ask people who’ve built their whole YT strategy on shorts. Ask them. Make sure to bring tissues for their broken dreams.
X is no different.
Same with email.
Short is to stay top of mind.
Not to convert.
SUPER-LONG-FORM converts. Yes. Stop looking at me like an alien. Yes. I mean it. Super long. Yes. Even in the “tiktok age”. Yes. Even when people “don’t read anymore”.
Here’s a fun fact for you.
The debate of long vs short copy has been here for a very long time. Since before the internet. The same about the “people don’t read long copy.”
And all sources that I know of? Including the OGs? They all said that long always converted better.
My experience is no different.
Long form converts.
I'm buying an 18k sq ft building for a few million dollars right now, and I just realized I'd be terrified if I didn't have someone holding my hand through it.
I've always figured things out myself (and have made a career out of it) but as soon as I jumped into this project realized that wasn't gonna cut it.
So much more to this then deal structure and due diligence.
100 ways for every cookie to crumble.
Lot's of $ on the line. Mine, other people's, all the above.
But I'm so fired up to be adding commercial real estate GP to my resume and grateful for @barrettjoneill walking me through it.
It is SO worth it to pay experts for their help.
Builders build lets go 🛠️
