F*ck it... I took my uncle's brick & mortar business from $8k/month to $25k/month Using things I learned on Twitter... Here's how: My uncle owns an old brick and mortar store. Before covid he was CRUSHING it. Bentley, big house, etc. etc. COVID crushed him. Decided to try and help using stuff I learned on Twitter and once he made these changes his sales sky rocketed Here's what I did: 1. Invested in a cash machine for the store I viewed the problem like a marketing funnel. I had to figure out what part of the funnel was failing After spending a few days at his store I realized: The foot traffic OUTSIDE his store was great People just weren't entering his store So, how do we solve this problem? Well I didn't see any cash machines nearby, so... I got him to invest in a cash machine and put a sign outside saying "Free Cash Machine Inside" On the top of the machine I got him to put an offer for his services Foot traffic increased basically overnight 2. He installed an "Amazon Locker" outside He's had salesman come into his store trying to put Amazon lockers outside of his store for a while now I told him to let them do it Why? - They pay him about $1000 a year in "rent" to be there - It increases the foot traffic. People will drop off their packages and see his store Win win You've probably seen the lockers, they look like this 3. Upgraded his sandwich board I put a better offer on the sandwich board (instead of a random service promo I turned it into a "free taster". Got an INSANE amount of traffic into his store because of this) And I changed the placement of the board. Before, he had the board right outside of his store. I spoke to the guy who owns the store a few doors down (which is closer to the main street with a ton of cars & people passing) and he didn't have a problem with us putting a board outside his store. My uncle is good friends with him and they refer customers to each other all the time so it wasn't too hard. 4. Overhauled his Google business page His Google business page was super outdated so it wasn't rocket science but I simply: 1. Updated the pictures 2. Got some old customers to leave reviews (went from 15 reviews to 67) 3. Replied to all of the reviews 4. Filled in all the details Google ask for (they promote businesses who give as much detail as possible) 5. Changed a few of the keywords around He went from ranked #15 to like #5 pretty quickly (gunning for #1 in the area!) 5. Increased opening time by 1 hour After observing the store for a few days I realized: Because he's so close to a major train station he gets a TON of foot traffic coming past his store around 5:30 - 6:30pm from people who just finished work. And he closes at 5... It sounds so simple but simply pushing the closing time to 6:30 resulted in a TON of extra sales that he wouldn't have seen otherwise 6. Put a girl at the till He had some girl fresh out of college working at the back. He was convinced he had to be at the tills because the customers wanted to talk to HIM Not the case lol She's super friendly and conversational and I noticed that after talking to her once Put this girl on the till and started letting her serve customers Saw results basically the next day Big lesson in business is to let people do what they're good at. Don't grow an ego or think you can do it better. If your staff aren't better than you, why even hire them in the first place? ... I'll end it there Did a few more things that made a massive difference so if this gets some interest I'll drop a pt. 2

RIP brother Ben genuinely devastating go give your homies a hug
Life is beautiful. Do not miss it. Do not take it for granted. Do not tell yourself something is missing, as you will always find something to look for. The thing you are looking for is you.

I’ve made $200,000+ in the last 6 months on LinkedIn (Mostly with DM outreach) You can have great DM convos but end up not booking calls because your CTA sucks But today’s your lucky day I’ve tested 100+ DM CTAs and I’m giving away the 14 that performed the best Use these to get similar results as my recent clients: 1 - Marcos from $50K to $80K/month 2 - Terrence 159 sales calls in 148 days 3 - Tim booked 14 calls in 2 weeks 4 - Jenny went from $0 to $10K/month in 52 days Everyone OBSESSES over profile optimization and content. The REAL money is made in these last 5-10 words Reply “14” and I’ll send you my 14 DM Sales CTAs: Plug these 14 CTAs into your DMs and INSTANTLY 2-3x calls you book

Getting "old" is relative to your achievements Being 26 -still at trashy clubs -working a dead end job You feel old as fck Being 26 -building a business -raising kids You're practically a baby You can always be the youngest in the room (even in your 30s & 40s) The rooms just get older the higher you climb
