2 teenagers just schooled most Creators
|
I heard a knock at the door. Two teenagers. We're cleaning garbage bins around the neighborhood. You need yours done? Funny timing. Literally 2 hours earlier I was taking out the trash thinking: these cans wreak, I need to get these damn things cleaned! I paid them $40 to clean both. We chatted a bit afterwards. They were 13 & 14, and made about $150 after 2 hours of knocking on doors. I get another knock at the door on Monday afternoon. Same kids, but with a different pitch. I paid them another $15 to pull my weeds. $55 from me in 48 hours. They hit up a happy customer with a second offer (SMART!) These 2 teens figured out what most Creators haven't. Back in February, I uploaded 20 months of sales data into Claude. 4,637 transactions. 40.3% of my customers bought from me 2 or more times. I'm damn proud of that number. Studies show that it's 5x - 12x easier to sell to a current customer over a new prospect. Yet, most Creators spend 92.3% of their time, money, energy, effort, blood, sweat & tears chasing strangers while ignoring people who've already whipped out their wallets and said, "I trust you" by giving them digital dollars. If you're not actively selling to your current customers... Take it from the 2 kids that just cleaned by trash bins and pulled weeds. Make Especially to the one's who've already given you money. YOU GOT THIS 🙌 In your corner, When you're ready, here are a couple of ways I can help you…

I got this message from a client this morning... "Btw, 8 sales today! $213 made 🚀" I built him a custom GPT as a front end offer, and another custom GPT for his order bump. He flipped ads on last week for the first time. 7 days in, and getting customers coming in while he's drooling on his pillow. He's got a platform that he sells, so we're feeding these customers into his software. Running ads isn't about profiting much on the thing you sell in the ad. The real money is what comes after....
Saturday was FUGLY. We lost our flag football game 28-2 (interceptions are worth 1 point each) It's been a rough season. The score was bad, but what happened after the game was pouring salt into the wound. I got approached by one of the kid's parents. They weren’t thrilled about their son’s playing time. Now here’s the kicker… We only had SIX kids show up. 5 are on the field at a time, so everyone played a lot. In fact, their son was standing alone in the endzone when the quarterback heaved...
Yesterday morning… I rolled over, grabbed my phone, and squinted at the screen like a caveman discovering fire. $247. At 4:14 AM. Now, let’s be clear… I was NOT awake at that time. I was drooling on my pillow likely dreaming of being at an all-you-can-eat cheeseburger buffet. Meanwhile... Someone on my email list whipped out their debit card. Here's the thing... I looked up her email in my system. She joined my email list in March 2025 (13 months ago). She became a customer last June when she...
