Email Is KING for PROFIT

If you don’t already have an email list or newsletter, or if you want to 10x yours here’s where to start.

1. Excuses! None of those should stop you

Anyone with this playbook and dedication can turn their business, their brain and a newsletter into a profitable thriving business.

2. I never planned on creating this course!

But as I went down the path of growing Contrarian Thinking, many people started taking notice and asked how I was growing and creating satellite businesses. So this is my excuse to be lazy and not keep answering that every 2 seconds :).

3. The truth is most people wing it on building a list and despair when they don’t grow

Others try to use ads, buy followers, just do social media, ignore their email list or waste away in Substack obscurity. There’s a better way.

4. Don’t create, steal

Like all of my other businesses, I first went to the competition. The Hustle, Morning Brew, Pomp, Sahil Bloom. I followed their blueprints. Then started testing my crazy ideas to figured out what actually works… and sh*t that definitely DOES NOT.

5. I’m kind of blown away

The team (which was lil ole me for 12 months) kinda crushed it. In 18 months we grew from 10,000 followers across all platforms to over 500,000+ and newsletter list of tens of tens of thousands. The impact we’ve created as been even cooler.
