If you follow the advice of a lot of Skool gurus, they will have you focus on: - Creating funnels - Testing headlines - Copy that converts - "No brainer" offers - A website - Cold email - Chat bots - YouTube - ...insert more tasks here - The list goes on and on. What don't they tell you? non of it matters without experience or audience insight. Only experience that is APPLIED to help your niche succeed will really move the needle. The bad news? Well experience takes time, you CAN'T skip this. No coach can give you a piece of advice to get around this. (that means maybe you won't be rich in 30 days) If you focus too much on that long list above—you'll never get the experience you need to really make an impact on people. You need to go deep on something. If you focus too much on that long list above—you'll get clients but then you will lose them. More time should be spent on gaining the experience to really help people. I could write a bunch of post and videos on how I did this in 30 days (and I have). But if I'm being honest my success is due to 35 years of working with technology. I've helped hundred of founders and businesses successfully use technology in their business. I was on the internet 5 years before most had heard of it. I was luck to have the internet in the early 90s. And long before that I used BBS's, where you'd call local computers and exchange information computer to computer. I'm not saying you need 35 years to crush it, but you do need that experience. And if you don't have broad experience, which takes a lot of time, you need NICHE experience that people care about, now. Even if you're just starting out, you can get the experience you need to make good money, but you will need to focus and go deep enough on a skill (that matters to people) that can make a difference. I do think its possible to launch a business very fast and gain the niche experience you need very quickly. BUT, to do that you will need a deep understanding of your audience, the problems, so you can focus just on the experience you need to move quickly.

(Still have 50% of the month left to go. Currently in 7th place!) The most important thing I've learned from the Skool games is FOCUS. When you wake up each day with a specific goal, it's quite a bit easier to attack the right tasks and ignore everything else. My biggest weakness in business is doing too many things that don't really matter. Oh should I revamp my website, all my funnels, rearrange my courses? (no you shouldn't) Not only does that SLOW you way down, but it can cause overwhelm as well. I'm working REALLY hard on my business right now, almost 24/7, but I'm not overwhelmed. Clients, community, paid communities, etc. But I'm operating at a level that feels good. There is a big difference between feeling tired from a day of focused hard work. And being a wreck and overwhelmed because you're going around in circles. Sadly, there are really only a few things that tend to move your business forward (I say sadly because they aren't always the thing you want to do). But if you can stay focused on them, you have a lot less to do. Then you can just get to work and cross off those high value tasks. So find a way to set new goals each week, each month, goals that matter and that can keep you focused. (or join Skool games) Set realistic goals too, ones that are a bit of a stretch but not impossible. 💪

I've generated $100K+ in less than 2 months with the release of KEDB Extreme. With a ~95% profit margin and only a few sales calls. I will have some content when I launch, but it will be limited. I'll release a more detailed roadmap shortly. The pre-launch phase in June will be primary focused on: - Learning what people would like to build and their struggles - Building a die hard group of founding members to help each other - Meeting people on the weekly calls to discuss the goals in more detail (tech support) - Daily journaling around how I build/sell KEDB Weekly calls will start next week. Time/date to be released shortly. Then over June, July, Aug and September I’ll fill out the classroom with more courses, demos and template automations to support the group.
