5 lessons I learned making WiFi munny šŸ’°

Hey Champ,

In 2018, I was making €14,000 a year as a junior.

Doing job interviews back then

Now, I make 25x that.

There’s 5 things that would’ve helped me that I never knew:

1/ Money is infinite - time is finite

I lived with a scarce mindset. But realized there’s 1 billion people on LinkedIn (my main platform). I needed 5 people to buy my $2,000 offer. And had my first $10,000 month. A 6-figure year is a spec of dust in the grand scheme of things. Savor your time, otherwise you get lost, fast.

2/ Model, don’t copy

I studied others 2 steps ahead. Modeled their strategies. Made them fit the way that worked best for me. When I copied, I failed. You can’t be Hormozi. $100M tactics? How about $10K first šŸ˜…. At least I saw the light & possibility.

3/ Simple beats complex

I was on every platform. Sold dozens of offers. And barely scraped past $1.5K a month. Energy in too many things is lost energy. I doubled down on 1 strength → writing. On 1 platform → LinkedIn. On 1 offer → business coaching (offers + writing primarily). On 1 avatar → solopreneurs. Simplicity opened the doors to opportunity. You only need 1 funnel and minimal tools to run your show.

Now, I have an email-first strategy. And distribute to LinkedIn & other platforms. Copy & paste.

4/ Press play and delete the pause button

You win by staying in the game. If average John Melon can do it, you can too. Start, and don’t stop. Stamina is the secret sauce. Your favorite creators aren’t superstars. They just show up, and iterate day in, day out. 10,000 iterations, not 10,000 hours. Know that it’s a matter of time. You might not be there yet, but I promise you, you will.

5/ Map out the future

I planned out my $10,000/mo plan and forgot about what’s next. I couldn’t see further. Because I didn’t know any better. $20, 30, 70, 100K+ months later it felt a bit ā€œimprovisedā€ šŸ˜…. And I’ve still got lots to learn. But visualizing the life you want to live, and mapping how it will play out is a big plus. I’m not complaining. But hindsight 2020 I should have thought about my future more on the life side of things.

There’s a time and place for everything.

Your #1 fan,

PS. Modern Maker is opening again next week.

Powering you to your next $10K. While working less + writing better.

By awakening those sleeping leads. Speeding up the process and closing clients.

6 spots. 2 gone. I’ll be doing a 1:1 call with you to craft your offer FOR YOU. And we’ll write out your 2024 game plan.

For free. And included in your membership. Because I genuinely want you to win.

The best part → If you don't get the result, I'll work with you until you do at no additional cost, provided you show up and do the work.

Would you like to save your spot before I open on Monday and skip the queue?

Reply with ā€œ maker ā€ and I’ll send it over so you can get it before the rest.
