Had a great first coffee date with a creator who’d be an amazing partner. Good vibes all around. On the call, he gave the verbal go-ahead for a test. I (foolishly) assumed that meant “sold.” I jumped the gun and asked for him to share some existing content and tee up a call with my partner this week (for us to get rocking with the test) and he's responded asking.. 'Do you have proven email sequences with strong conversion rates? If so, how many emails were in those sequences, what were the hooks, angles, subject lines, and what were the results (list size, click-through rate, conversions)? 'Do you have testimonials or case studies from other creators you’ve worked with?' So… not sold. 😅 He name-dropped (having learned from folks like) Amy Porterfield and Jeff Walker — so he knows his apples. He also asked what our marketing would do that his hasn’t. Which tells me he’s curious, but not convinced. I’ve got solid case studies (and so does my partner), but I don’t want to get bogged down proving every subject line. I’d rather run the test and let results do the talking, I did literally say this to him on the call. Here’s my question:👉 How do you respond in a way that keeps you in the investor / partner frame instead of dropping into freelancer / service provider mode? Trying to keep my Ronin detachment strong on this one.

I’ve been running the Big Money from Old Courses play. Reaching out. Getting my courses listed inside different Skool classrooms. It’s been working. Then I reached out to a guy who runs one of the top Skool communities. I thought it would be a good fit for his community. But all I got were one-word answers. “Yea.” “No.” He flat out rejected my test proposal. I keep replaying the convo in my head. Was it the way I framed it? Was I too fast with the test proposal? I know the system works. But this one stung. What would you have done differently to turn a “No” from a big player into at least a “Let’s talk”?

Hey Ronins! Quick question that weirdly I can't find an answer to... With Skool if you want to have multiple communities do you need a separate $99 per month membership per Skool or how does that work? I'm planning to move all my Facebook Group activity over here but I wanna know how this works to work out the $$ part ahead of time? So excited to put Travis's magic into action! NOTE: I wanna spin up short term Skools as well as have multiple longer term ongoing Skools like Ronin / F.I.R.E

===> Join Link I started learning to invest dead ass broke and with ZERO bucks. It doesn’t require money to step into the investor stance. Most peeps are not investors at all. They are speculators at best, gamblers at the worst. Why? Because they never learned to invest WITHOUT money. Becoming just an “okay” investor will put you ahead of 99.9% of the population. Once you learn to invest WITHOUT money… You will be DEADLY with a few bucks. Over 50 of you said let’s test this Skool live thingy! It’s happening. Do you want me to do our first Skool live on: Million Dollar Investor Training Wheels? “Yay” “Nay” “Another suggestion” 👇 If I don’t get enough “yay”… We’ll pick another topic. Rooting for Ya, Travis

Reached out to a plus-size brand after seeing their “Chunker” tweet. Told them I run @plussizevilla on Instagram and floated a collab. Might’ve been a perfect fit for whitelisting ads. He asked: “How much do you charge?” I replied: “Honestly, I don’t know. Haven’t done it with another brand yet. What kind of deal would make it dreamy for you?” Seen. No reply. How would you follow up? P.S. You don't see me mentioning Whitelist ads in DM, but I mentioned that in my comment.
