They won't stay for a video they can't hear. Before you upgrade your camera, fix your sound. Get the mic close, record somewhere quiet, and turn off fans and echo. Clear, close audio instantly makes you sound more professional — usually more than any camera. 🎯 Do this today: Record 20 seconds and play it back with your eyes closed. If it's muffled or echoey, move the mic closer or change rooms. ❓ What are you recording audio with right now — phone, headset, or a mic?

It was around 4:30 am this morning and realizing that today is July 14, I knew I had a decision to make. Rodney's Founding Member Offer ends today. It was not lost on me that the core training in my own goal-centered Skool group is centered around the acronym, DECIDE, and that the C stands for "Commit" (make a decision). So I made the decision, opened the sign-up page and committed by clicking the "Upgrade Now" button. Admittedly, I had tried to talk myself out of it. "I don't really want a YouTube channel," I told myself. But my long history of starting and stopping again told a different story.

Today, I am hopeful that the step-by-step processes and the powerful tools that Rodney has developed will take me far beyond those past stopping points into a real connection with my desired audience. Today, this is my win... that I'm in.

Finally got my 🔥 emoji and I had to say something somewhere. On topic: I got a bunch of footage today between the GoPro and my phone. Working on getting all of it uploaded. Then to figure out how to post it. So it’s rather mixed up. I swapped back and forth and without an extensive amount of time I’m not going to get the clips in order (I don’t think). Still, there’s a bunch of clips-probably an hour total. Someone might like watching all of it. 🤷‍♀️

You're standing in front of somebody and the conversation matters. Customer. Job interview. Negotiating on a truck. And your mind goes blank on what to say next. Now imagine you had a little voice in your earbud — quiet, just for you — that heard what they said and gave you a solid answer about a second later. You say it or you don't. Your call. Would you use something like that? YES or NO. And if yes — where? If no — tell me why not. I got a reason for asking

Imagine you're talking to that one person, not a crowd. Say "you," not "you guys." It makes even a small video feel personal. ❓ Who's the one person you picture when you hit record? 👇
