A couple of weeks ago, we did an episode devoted to the copywriting purists in the audience…A copywriting Q&A. That episode generated a lot of positive feedback, so this week, we're doing another round of questions submitted by some of our listeners. If you are (or want to be) a copywriter, I think you'll find […]

It was such a pleasure to welcome my son, Sean, back to the show. When the pandemic hit, it quickly became apparent that Sean would need to devote more time to our bricks and mortar coffee shop that we purchased together in 2017. In this week's episode, I want Sean to explain what it was […]

Are you making progress toward being the person you wish you were? Most of us have more than one area of our lives we would like to improve, and most of us even know what we need to do to get there (or at least, get closer). So what's the holdup? You're about to find […]

The term “quiet quitting” predates the pandemic by more than a decade, but has become commonplace since 2020. So, what is it? Quiet Quitting is when you decide to the absolute bare minimum of what is required to keep getting a paycheck…No more aspirations of “moving up the ladder”, just “acting your wage”, as they […]

That is the question that keeps coming up: “Is Ray retiring?” It’s my own fault. It’s because I said (in yesterday's email) that “this is your last chance to work with me personally.” For 98% of those reading this email that remains true, but I am absolutely not “retiring“. And I AM NOT shrinking the […]

Too often we go through life bouncing from one random event to the next, always reacting to our circumstances and allowing them to dictate our lives. If you're ever going to take control of your destiny, you have to be able to learn to adjust to circumstances using your own personal grit, determination, and the […]

This week's entire episode is devoted to an incredible tool for copywriters (although, I'm quite certain it was not built exclusively for us) – Notion.

Give me a quick 7 minutes, and I'll explain why I believe the answer to that title question is an emphatic, “Yes!” A Note About This Episode: The audio from this week's podcast comes from a recently released YouTube video of the […]

Listen to this week’s podcast to learn how Click Funnels (and the upcoming Funnel Hacking Live) actually saved me from brain surgery. My neurologist was telling me it was time to give in and have the brain surgery … but my heart was telling me a different story. To go to the event, I had […]

If you're an entrepreneur, I'd be shocked if you didn't own at least two books on the subject of time management. I'd be even more shocked if you own a time management book that I haven't read. I've been fascinated with this particular subject since my high school days. That's quite a few years ago […]
