Episode notes
Give New Ventures A One-Year Test
- Use a one-year test to judge new ventures and watch opportunity cost closely.
- If a business is a long-term "half" (hard, annoying), consider pivoting to an "elf" (easy, lucrative, fun).
Agency Built Around Full-Service Funnels
- Stefan built an integrated agency offering VSL scripts, funnels, affiliates, call centers, and email for big upfront fees.
- Market shifts like stricter Meta compliance and crowded affiliates turned that model into a grind he chose to exit.
Great Offers Reveal Themselves Fast
- A great offer works immediately while a mediocre offer wastes time optimizing.
- Move on quickly from mediocre opportunities to reduce wasted resources and opportunity cost.
