Thrivecart is down.
After the deception of the lifetime deal and degrading customer support...
Maybe worth checking out getsolostore.com
My most-viewed video (160K views) made me $0.
My least-viewed video (3K views) made me thousands.
Views lie.
So I built a tool that tracks where paying subscribers actually come from. → bestsubscribers.com
You should know precisely where your new email subscribers come from.
Because this helps you doubling down on what works.
As I'm building out my new app (a Google Analytics but for newsletter marketers)
I found that...
attributing subscribers to the right traffic source is harder than just "tracking website visitors"
A good tracking system has an algorithm behind it.
It analyzes multiple touch points to figure out the REAL correct source.
One of the big issues when you're posting on multiple platforms...
Is that you need a clear picture of what's working and what's not.
Most people (me included) have used Google Analytics or other "website" analytics tools.
But these are NOT built for people like us who sell stuff through email.
Why?
Because it's just... website analytics.
Not email analytics.
Most writers have no clue how to prompt AI to generate an output that sounds as good as theirs.
And if you’re a newbie writer, then AI can already write better than you.
Accept or deny, up to you.
Here's what you can do: use it to amplify what makes your writing unique.
If you’re shy of plugging your offers, don’t start a newsletter.
Because that’s what’s it’s all about.
Tutorials are dead.
Proof?
Ask AI to write "How to start a business" and you'll get a perfect step-by-step guide in seconds.
But ask it to write: "How I built a 6-figure business while battling depression" and it'll fail miserably.
Your story is your advantage.
Use it.
Everyone's obsessed with flexing online:
- Income screenshots
- Follower counts
- Before/after pics
But here's what actually works:
- Showing you understand their struggle
- Offering genuine solutions
- Making them feel seen
Stop bragging.
Start helping.
Habits to make $10k/mo with your newsletter (even with a small audience):
• Take a stand
• Be interesting
• Sell your own products
• Solve your reader’s problem
• Make an offer in every email
• Launch new offers every month
• Send newsletters at a min. 2-3 times/week
Your readers don't give a damn how you write your newsletter.
They care if it changes their thinking, solves their problems, or entertains them.
Stop overthinking.
Stop procrastinating.
Stop trying to be perfect.
Just ship the damn newsletter.
The biggest email marketing mistake:
"You'll annoy people if you email too often"
WRONG.
You only annoy people when you:
• Send boring content
• Hide behind corporate speak
• Forget to make offers
• Waste their time
Your subscribers WANT you to sell to them.
Hiding behind "giving value" is actually doing them a disservice.
They joined your list to solve a problem - help them solve it!
I'll never understand people showing off making money on social media.
if you make money, you can be quiet.
You don't need to shout.
You can treat yourself and your loved ones in silence.
Being an introvert is an underrated cheat code for happiness.
this feels like cheating
but ai can write killer content if you first feed it with two things:
samples of writing you want to mimic (posts, blogs, newsletters)
your ideas
yet, most people still think they have to type everything manually
