HighLevel for Google Ads Freelancer / Small Agencies?
Hey everyone, Is anyone here using HighLevel and would you recommend it? If so, where do you feel it saves you the most time? For me, the most interesting features would be the CRM, automation, and funnel builder. Thanks in advance!

GHL is a quality product and anyone who has used both platforms will testify the UX and support system is better than ClickFunnels. I have nothing negative to say about them. But I did move over the SamCart, because I believe their backend programming is much better designed to improve retention, conversions, and upgrades. And a joy to work with.
Learning how to sell: Which book is a "no-brainer"?
Hey everyone, When it comes to learning how to sell and understanding the psychology behind it... which book is an absolute MUST-read? Do you have any personal favorites in this field?

Before you get into the obvious but superficial stuff on "power closes," manipulative NLP techniques, and overcoming objections, etc. - go to the source. There are two old books that influenced almost everything of value that followed. First, "The True Believer" by Eric Hoffer. It's short, snappy, and the SCIENCE of mass movements: what causes "group think" and why people behave they way they do. Also "Propaganda" by Edward Bernays. Another master class on how movements are nurtured and created. Neither book would stand up as a paragon of virtuous behavior. But you can learn the techniques and use them ethically. Whether it's Cialdini's "Influence" book, copywriters like Dan Kennedy, Ted Nicholas, or myself, or funnel builders like Russell Brunson - we all stand on the shoulders of those two books.
I entered this community backwards.
I ended up in a private convo before I found the front door. I jumped on a call and didn't realize it was a livestream. Asked Brandon where he posted his high-value link and he said "on Skool." That's when I came here and realized the community I double-clicked on back in March (and forgotten about) was actually the starting point. I blame Kasim for being so compelling. Sometimes people just skip the funnel. Some of you already saw me climb over the debris that Jason Croft left when he nimbly breached the wall. @Jason Szakel freestyled a rap to introduce me, and @Clinton Martin kept the whole bit alive with commentary that had me crying. The whole group = brilliant AI practitioners…and also just genuinely fun. For everyone else: hi. I just discovered the front door. The "FORWARDS" journey - Started in Google Ads in 2009, leading US expansion for a Swiss agency - Stroller-packed from Switzerland across Europe with my toddler, working from internet cafes 1-2 weeks at a time - Launched my own agency in 2014 - Applied a knapsack-style algorithm to my client list in 2019 and scaled down when I married the Kodiak guy, Luke Randall - Sometimes we're wrangling 225-pound halibuts in the Gulf of Alaska. Sometimes we're in the lower 48. Right now he's in Uyaqsaq on Starlink and I'm on my laptop in the studio. Luke's business runs entirely on reputation: remote lodge projects, outdoor trips that sell out on word of mouth, commercial seafood deals. Now that we've discovered how freeing an empty nest is, I'm finally helping him take it online. New D2C seafood logistics just made the timing real. The SIDEquest I compose narrative-arc musical productions. My first staged show, Immanuel (12 original pieces), is headed for live performance in December 2026… Why I'm HERE I'm studying the cultural and anthropological effects of AI, collecting human-AI interactions from a wide range of environments. Cross-domain problems are converging, and I'm trying to finish a book before the market catches up.

Some tips on writing the book from a guy who's done 16 of them: Have a Point of View (POV). If we want summaries of the situation, or stats, we can get that in 4 seconds from AI. When we read your book, we want to know what YOU think. Write the book ONLY YOU can write. Don't tell the Steve Jobs anecdote, the Elon quote, how Jensen at Nvidia did this or that. We don't care about the McKinsey study or Harvard research. Tell the stories, case studies, examples, successes, and failures that only you can share. Write a book that makes us think about the topic in a way we've never thought about before. THat's the book we can't put down. Good luck and please keep us posted!

@Katie Beckam and also @Deborah A Good for you! A few more thoughts on my top secret, patent pending process 😂 that I use for every book to start: 1) Read "The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield. It will only take an hour or two, max. 2) Write either the sales copy for a landing page you would use to sell the book or the pitch you would send to the publisher to sell them why they should publish the book. This gives you a checklist to go back to while you're writing - to make sure you deliver everything you've promised the reader. 3) Draft your Table of Contents (TOC). The TOC will likely change as you write the book; that's fine. But you need an initial roadmap to get the book directionally right. 4) Create a contest on 99 Designs or similar site and get your cover created. You'll want to print this out and put in your writing area. This will provide motivation long after the initial excitement wears off. 5) Write a book that changes a BELIEF, a BEHAVIOR, or a SITUATION, or ideally, all three. Otherwise it's just noise. Have fun!
