Roll up a $5 note, Friend
I was always shit scared of spending money on content.
I come from an “organic” world. I just couldn’t grasp it.
Doing it for clients? No problem.
Doing it for me? Was like a weird dent to the ego.
“Can I really make it work with $5 a day?”
If you’re anything like me, you’ve heard people go “you need to spend lots on ads if you ever wanna see results”.
Well… I’ve seen people spend $1,000s a day and get burned.
So I decided to experiment on my own.
I spent $300~
I netted $12,808 from that ad this February. Minus 1 refund which was a client who paid twice, so their funds were returned.
(This is excluding all things organic - it’s just my ad experiment)
So now I have something to run with.
And I’ve now gone to $10/day… because I feel good.
But how did I make $5/day work?
Easy.
I set up some ridiculously simple ads. As soon as I got 1x high ticket sale in the back, I just took 25% of those profits and reinvested them into good ol’ Zuckerberg’s platform.
All I had to do was play a waiting game. And this happened:
I actually recorded a video showing the behind the scenes, it’s here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYnLdKyPCms).
As soon as it stabilized, I started cranking up the dial.
Now, there’s about 1x client coming in a week.
And I aim to take this little experiment upwards from here using The Micro Snack Cartel strategy.
I’m currently showing people how to do this inside Modern Maker - FAST LANE.
If you want to see if it’s a good fit for you, hit reply with “ FAST LANE ” and I’ll send the info over.
Your biggest fan,

oh look, a hooman!
