    So if you're looking for a newsletter signup page to copy....I've found this layout working pretty well!
     
     

    Thought:


    Our member's board for August 2021 is humming!
    So far there's been:​
    • 2 Writing Wednesday's

    I personally learn a ton each week from our forum and our Office Hours:

    office hours images 2
    I know "building a community" has been a big topic lately, and I've learned a TON maintaining and building a community.
    If there's enough interest I might add a whole module to the course on how to do this soon!
     
     

    Uplifting:


    This entire damn year I've been trying to hit a weight of ~165 lbs, you can see it in my goals:

    Well 8 months later I never hit it 🙄
    Always CLOSE, like 169 or 167, but never the goal weight.
    I admitted failure and decided to re-enlist in my friend Adam Gilbert's company MyBodyTutor (this isn't a promo, just my experience).
    I've done it twice before this, and got fit both times.
    Here's the secret to this service:
    --------------------------------------------------------
    You just track your eating and exercise on an app....and the next day a real person reviews each thing and gives you feedback. THAT'S IT.
    --------------------------------------------------------
    Simply knowing someone is watching all my foot intake I've been making far better decisions.
    I've started making kinda healthy lunches and dinners lately like this:

    I've personally always worked better when someone is watching me, so I figured the same will happen with food!
    Current weight: 173 lbs
    165 lbs here we come!
     
     

    Picture:


    I'm a huge fan of the classic Before & After photo....or the "Good vs Bad" photo.
    If you're trying to write out a concept describing something before & after, it's often easier to just SHOW it:
    Good/Bad illustration for UX about thumb placement:
    ux thumb placement before and after
     
    Good/Bad illustration for social login UI Design:
    ui social login before and after
     
    Before/After of a Craigslist listing:
    craiglist before and afer
     
    LED lighting before + after:

    Just SHOWING stuff is often better than WRITING stuff!
     
     

    Interesting:


    We're in the middle of re-doing the 76-email-long Copywriting Course autoresponder, and it's a beast to edit!
    The goal is to blast people in the face with amazing emails for an entire year 😬

    In the end it'll likely have ~100 emails.
    So far I've had to:
    • Change a ton of Kopywriting Kourse logos to Copywriting Course.
    • Enlist the help of Dan (our head writer).
    • Fully delete entire sets of emails.
    • Have regular working sessions.
    • Edit a vast number of pictures.
    • Re-write many emails.
    • Re-order emails.
    I'm trying to make this autoresponder so damn good people will tell others to get on the email list just to see it.
     
     

    Drawing:


    There’s a Japanese term called Ikigai which means:
    “Something that gives a person a sense of purpose."

    • It can be walking the dog.
    • It can be doing prayers.
    • It can be raking leaves.

    I enjoyed seeing other people's personal Ikigai's in the comments here!
     
     
    Hope you enjoyed these little tidbits, have a happy Friday :)
