Let’s get started:
This is Hale Fitness in Richmond, CA.

When I self published my first book, it struck me that:
Writing a book is the exact same as writing a blog post!
It’s all the same stuff: Title, image (or book cover), table of contents, the actual contents. That’s it!

Today I was thinking about learning copywriting over the past few years, and realized that it all started with reading your blog, taking your course, and talking to you on office hours.

This guy is “inside the box”

A simple digital product got this bar an extra $49,000, plus moved them into a Physical + Digital hybrid.
Bars and restaurants are generally understood to be low margin businesses with few revenue streams.
But they don’t need to be.
For example, we built a “digital bartending school” that made us $49,000+ in addition to what we were already making.… Continue Reading

Here’s what the AIDA Formula is in a nutshell:
Attention: Get their attention with something catchy and relevant.
Interest: Tell them interesting facts or uses.
Desire: Make them desire the product/service.
Action: Get them to take an action.
Let’s break that down into sections to understand it better:
I don’t know how to type correctly. I chicken peck. Look at this:
(this gif is like 5 years old so don’t judge my laptop 😂)

I want to spend 1 hour per week doing social media, but make it LOOK like I’m posting every single day!
I enjoy posting on social platforms, but I hate getting sucked back into them constantly. There’s just so many of them, and they’re all extremely addicting.
For example it’s difficult to go on Facebook to respond to a comment … Continue Reading
Yelp gets a lot of hate. It usually comes down to this problem:
It’s a review site, but business owners aren’t allowed to ask for reviews.
Lots of restaurant owners get stuck on that idea. They see Yelp as a big scary thing that’s out of their control and potentially dangerous.

My first two jobs had crazy approaches to meetings:
Job #1 = Super time consuming meetings over 2 hours each.
- Format: Daily meeting where the whole department would “check in.”
- Start Time: 7:30 am
- People Involved: 30+ 🙄
- Frustration Level: Aggghhh 🤮
Job #2 = Zero communication
- Format: Random meetings every few months, no structure
- Start Time: ????
- People Involved:
If you can only sell 100 products in a year, look at the difference the price makes:
100 products at $2 each = $200
100 products at $20 each = $2,000
100 products at $200 each = $20,000
100 products at $2,000 each = $200,000
100 products at $20,000 each = $2,000,000
100 products at $200,000 each = $20,000,000
100… Continue Reading
