[just added the full convo in the comments] This dude reached out this morning from my "King Midas" post. He suggested we talk. I ain't ready to talk yet. I know this guy already. I know his biz was at multiple 6 figs last time we talked a couple years ago. My initial answer is "no", we'll see if he can take me off that. Here's what the dude is competing with that he doesn't know... 1. @Travis Speegle and I are ALL-IN on a new project that we both love. 2. If @Travis Sago wants me to partner on ANYTHING, I'm immediately IN. Those are my top 2 priorities. For anyone to get my time or attention, it's gotta be something really, really fucking good. Anyway, attached message exchange so far. We'll see how he responds.

Hey peeps Remember to set up SPF, DKIM, DMARC on your domain. The Gmail & Yahoo changes are taking effect Feb 2024 - which is only a day away. If you don't comply with these changes, your deliverability will tank. Some ESPs won't even let you send emails.

. . I've always said, and I say it again: I am so grateful to be part of this EXTRAORDINARY group. I DO spend time to read your posts & comments, sooo many of them, where I read the highs and lows we struggle, then we read REAL SOLUTIONS to situations that would take us life-times to figure out !! So, this is a note of APPRECIATION to all of you and of course @Travis Sago for making this possible. Every week feels like Christmas, bc there's ALWAYS so many Golden Nuggets being shared. God Bless You All Cheers 🥂

The NEER concept seems to hit a stroke with a lot of you guys. (Naturally Existing Economic Relationships) A helpful question is: <><><><><><><><><><><><> Who had the customer before, while, after or instead of us/our partner? <><><><><><><><><><><><> We can find great situations with this. And because it's nearly Christmas. An easy prompt to think a little bit less. "I am [what are you?] for [niche]. I want to built Joint Ventures with other vendors who serve this market. Can you give me examples of companies who has my customers before, while, after or instead of me? Give me at least 5 examples for every situation."

Now you can add a Call-to-Action button directly on your profile. This will help you drive more targeted traffic to your website, blog, downloadable, etc. Just like your profile picture, banner, and headline, the CTA button will play a key role in boosting your visibility and conversions. Here’s how you can add this button to your profile (make sure creator mode is on): 👉 Step 1: Head over to your LinkedIn profile and click on the edit (pencil) icon. 👉 Step 2: Scroll down to "Custom Button" and hit "Edit custom button." 👉 Step 3: Choose "Link" and drop in your URL and compelling CTA text. * Pro Tip: Keep the link (copy) relevant and concise! That’s it! An incredibly effective way to guide your 1st connections (and all visitors) exactly where you want them to go. -Len
