I watch financial videos on Youtube sometimes. And one dude I’ve watched many times is Robert Kiyosaki. He’s the “rich dad poor dad” guy. One thing I’ve noticed about him is that he repeats the same things over and over again. He repeats the brand. He’s a marine. The story of his two dads. He’s…
The other day, I was talking to a friend who does a lot of work on TikTok. And we were talking about the mindset differences with the younger generation. He’s in a position to know since all the work he’s done online the last many years has been primarily targeting the younger demographic. He’s very…
(Today’s article is a clip from the most recent post at the Blog Marketing Academy. Thought it’d be worth sharing in THE EDGE). Money is a form of energy. It is like the gas in your business fuel tank. So, it is really hard to have a sovereign and self-reliant business if you don’t have any financial reserves….
Today, let’s just get tactical when it comes to straight makin’ money. I assume you like money, right? 😉 When I work with people on their business strategy or with the tech setup of their site in the early phases, I sometimes see too much focus on the FORMAT of the thing they want to sell….
So, here’s something I’ve been thinking about lately… Growing traffic and building the email list up reliably, but without paying for Google ads or Facebooks ads. This is something I know a lot of people want. Mainly because they don’t want to spend money on the ads. And, frankly, those ads have gotten more expensive….
A little food for thought today. It is something I’ve touched on before. And perhaps because of that I’ve even had people mention it to me on strategy calls. It is the idea of reducing reliance on outside organizations. This is something I’ve definitely thought about (and am doing). And I’ve had a few clients…
Let’s talk blog traffic. And sometimes, not everything is awesome. Nobody likes to share their own dirty laundry, but truth is… the traffic for Blog Marketing Academy has dropped. It started around March. And it has been a slow bleed. And as it sits now, BMA traffic is roughly half what it was 6 months ago. When…
Last week, I was on a consulting call with a cool dude. Looking to take his successful one-man business online in order to scale things up and increase his leverage. As part of that conversation, we were talking about some of the advice that other people give. In this case, specifically, it was the idea…
Have you ever found that you get a little paralyzed in action because of the “bigness” of it all? What you’re working on is big. Perhaps kinda undefined. And you’re not exactly sure what to do next to get the big win. Sure you have. We all have. And if you’ve never felt that in…
A lot of entrepreneurs and internet marketing people have made things pretty complicated for themselves. And a lot of it comes down to all the hype over self help. Now, I realize I’m about to crap on the bed for some people here. I know I have a lot of personal development people here. But,…
When I’m out camping like I am now, obviously I’m not working all the time. That’s not the point. But, I AM doing some work. Thing is, wifi is usually spotty and unreliable. Sometimes it is great… sometimes it sucks. Sometimes, there is none at all (like in state parks) and it is either tethering…
Are you here? Paying attention? Or… are you super scattered and probably just scanning? Society has attention issues, if you haven’t noticed. 😏 And with that in mind, I want to talk about “big picture” content strategy today. You’re free to think and do whatever you want, but personally… I think most all cases of “attention-deficit…
