73 TikTok Lives. $83.


😭😭😭

I made a whopping $83 from my first 73 TikTok livestreams.

Yes, EIGHTY THREE DOLLARS.

Not $8,300.

Not $83,000.

Eighty. Three. American. Dollars.

I challenged myself to do 100 livestreams in 100 days on April 23rd.

I finished the challenge in 92 days.

I tracked every single Live in a spreadsheet because I'm a numbers nerd.

The results after 73 Lives?

$83.

If you don't have a calculator....That's a whopping $1.14 per livestream.

Flipping burgers would have been a HUGE pay raise.

Apparently, I'm really fu*king good at showing up before the money does.

But here's the thing...

98.3% would've quit LONG before Live #73.

Hell, some people quit after posting 3 Tik Toks that don't get any views.

They try something for a week.

They don't go viral.

They don't make digital dollars.

They decide, "dIgItAl MaRkEtInG DoEsN't WoRk"

Then go chasing the next woman in the red dress.

New platform, biz model, strategy, hottest selling course, etc.

Rinse. Repeat.

I've been guilty of this 4,391 times in the past, so I speaketh with experience.

This time was different.

100 livestreams.

And I wasn't gonna let $83 stop me from hitting my goal.

I'm a stubborn MFer.

Fast forward a few months...

I've been selling the same PDF on Tik Tok since August 22nd.

Same message. Same offer. Sounding like a damn broken record.

$10,000+ in sales in October.

I ain't saying those 73 livestreams magically caused those sales, but they taught me something I desperately needed to learn.

How to keep showing up when the scoreboard looks like the Patriots-Falcons Super Bowl in 2016 (28-3).

You ain't gonna learn that skill in a $997 course.

You've got to earn it.

Never forget this...

The compound effect doesn't give a shit about your impatience.

You don't need to pivot every time you have a slow day.

You don't need to jump platforms because a handful of posts flopped.

And you sure as shit don't need another business idea!

Sometimes you need to quit quitting.

One person.

One problem.

One offer.

One message.

Repeat until you turn the Stripe notifications off because they become annoying AF.

YOU GOT THIS 🙌

I spend 92.3% of my social media time on Tik Tok these days. Since losing my Instagram, Threads, and Facebook accounts in June, I've been hesitant to put too many eggs in Meta's basket. So I went all in on Tik Tok. I started selling ONE digital product on August 22nd. A $27 PDF called Every Day Pay Day. That's it. For 58 days, I've sold the same damn thing. No new offers every Tuesday. No chasing the woman in the red dress. Just one product + one platform + one message. And here's what's...

I quit using Stan store last month. It's not you, Stan. It's me. Well, it's not me, it's Lovable. Over the last few weeks, I've moved pretty much my entire business over to Lovable. My website. My blog. My sales pages. My funnels. And now...my course delivery system. Oh, and I built an entire AI platform called Jax, too. It ran me about $200 for all this. A few years ago, building something like Jax would've cost me tens of thousands of dollars. Now? I'm sitting at my desk in gym shorts,...

I got an email from someone asking about Jax. Here's what he said: Are you going to release just the compass? I’m hoping so! Fair question. The Compass is one of the tools inside Jax. It takes your ideas, beliefs, offers, market, and lived experiences and turns it into content angles worth yapping about. Not another list of 47 generic "5 tips to..." posts that nobody gives a shit about. I'm talking about ideas built around YOUR audience, YOUR offer, YOUR beliefs, and YOUR message. But here's...
