I spent most of this morning combing through old data. Was it the most productive use of my time? Probably not, but I is a numbers nerd. Some binge Netflix, I like to stare at spreadsheets (I'm a weird MFer) This morning, I was digging through the numbers from the Offer Wizard. I launched ads on December 3rd last year. And they worked. Quite, well, too. Looking through December & January, I found 9 different ad sets where I was paying less than $10 per customer. Then I saw the number that made me cry. My AOV (Average order Value) was $12.81 (that's hard to admit). I was profitable, byt mna, did I leave heaps of the green stuff on the table! My time and energy should have been spent on improving the funnel (upsells, downsells and/or order bumps) Trying to get that $12.81 to $20...$25...maybe even $30. Like the woman in the red dress got me (shiny object syndrome) and I moved on to something else. I have a new ad scheduled to go live at 12:01 AM tonight (or technically, tomorrow). The same damn ad I ran last December that crushed it. Ain't no sense in reinventing the wheel. Sometimes the next breakthrough in your business isn't hiding inside a NEW offer, funnel or strategy. Sometimes it's sitting right under your nose...in something that's worked before! You just need to stop "pivoting" too soon. YOU GOT THIS 🙌 In your corner, When you're ready, here are a couple of ways I can help you…

We have 100 days left in 2026. That’s it. And I don’t give a two hoots what happened during the first 265 days. Maybe you crushed it. Maybe you sh*t the bed. Maybe you launched something that flopped like my Detroit Lions defense did on national TV last Thursday night. Maybe you spent 9 months “getting ready”. Does. Not. Matter. Those 265 days are in the rearview mirror. And there’s a reason your windshield is 47x bigger than your rearview mirror. We're looking FORWARD. Q4 starts in a little...
The kids are home from school today, staff development day. Which means very little work has been done. I’ve been interrupted approximately 847 times. Anywhoo... Here’s some proof that nobody is paying nearly as much attention to you as you think. I lost ALL my social media accounts on June 12th. Years of content and hundreds of thousands of followers disappeared faster than egg nog at Chateau de Dukes. I sent 5-6x emails when that happened. I've mentioned it in a handful of emails since...
I’ve seen this several times this week on the socials. Someone with 1,000+ followers posts on Threads or IG. Their post gets 184 views. 7 likes. Maybe a comment from their Mom. Or from that weird kid they sat next to in 9th grade Chemistry class 10+ years ago. Then comes the dramatic announcement… “What’s even the point anymore?” “The algorithm hates me.” “Instagram is dead.” “I’m done posting.” I shake my head every damn time. These platforms are FREE. They don't owe you a damn thing. Yet...
