Kia ora, It'd be super helpful if we all get to know each other. We’re a small but mighty crew all working toward the same goal: setting up funnels that bring in leads on autopilot. Here’s what to do: Drop a quick comment below with... 1. Who you are (name + biz or what you do) 2. Your main marketing goal you want to get out of this program That’s it. Super simple. 💡 Pro tip: Don’t just lurk — reply to at least one other person’s intro. Connections = momentum. We’re stoked to have you here, can’t wait to celebrate your wins along the way. 🚀 Cheers, Josh & Mearle
