Quick heads up everyone 👋 There are a bunch of exciting changes happening inside the community right now. We are rolling out paid tiers, new courses, and a few upgrades I have been working toward for a long time. My personal favorite new addition is the Slack VIP channel. This gives you direct access to me and everyone else in the VIP group. I am available during business hours to connect and chat about whatever you are facing. Bids, pitches, positioning, pricing, outreach, email copy, or just getting unstuck. You get my 35 years in the trenches experience on tap. The Slack VIP channel goes live on Monday, so keep an eye out for your chance to grab the offer before the price goes up. And yes, I am kind of kicking myself for this one 😅The first 10 members to join the VIP tier get in at $59/month forever. That is not a typo. It is honestly like having a senior partner on your side for the cost of grabbing lunch with a friend. I truly hope you take advantage of it because the value is huge. Also, quick reminder that we are hosting our last AMA of the year next Thursday. After that, I am taking a short break with the family. I will still be around and active, just no Thursday meetups until the new year. Thank you all for being part of the Six Figure Video Business Hub. This community is growing fast, and there are some really great things brewing for 2026. I am excited to start sharing more over the coming weeks and months. Appreciate you all 🙏 Jonathan
