ADVICE

Only Sell What You Believe In

  • Sell things you genuinely believe in and refund if you feel the product didn't deliver.
  • Authentic belief in your offers prevents transactional, low-integrity selling.
ADVICE

Plan Longer Horizons To Avoid Paralysis

  • Think in six-month to one-year horizons to reduce paralysis over weekly choices.
  • Rotate focus between products (book, guide, course) instead of forcing a single-channel launch.
ADVICE

Raise Prices And Presell To Scale Mentorship

  • Reprice and presell higher-ticket mentorship to reduce workload and test demand.
