Why your failed funnels are a win

I’ve had more failed funnels than successful ones, and here’s the truth: that’s exactly how it should be. For every 10 funnels that fall flat, I’ll have one that delivers exponentially better results. But what’s a failure, really? For me, a failed funnel is one that doesn’t make the money I expected it to. Nine…

Building an email list? Stop making this common mistake

The biggest mistake I see when people try to build an email list is creating loads of lead magnets. It just doesn’t work. In my experience, 80% of my leads come from just 20% of my lead magnets. We’ve had one lead magnet alone bring in around 5,000 leads. And while my books are now…

Pre-selling is the key to validating any offer before you waste time, money, and energy building it. Think about it—how many times have you been chatting with friends or family, sharing a business idea, and they say, “That’s a great idea!”?

Case studies are hands down the best way to prove you can deliver results. If you know you’ve got the experience and can help people, but other businesses are overtaking you, it’s probably because you’re not showing off your case studies enough. The good news? You don’t need tons of them. Two or three solid…

Struggling to find clients? Here’s why your niche is the key

When someone asks me, “How can I find more clients?” My first question is always the same: What type of clients do you want? It’s like going to a travel agent—remember those?—and saying, “I want to go on holiday,” but when they ask where, you just shrug. How can they plan anything if you don’t…

Next week is our anniversary, and I’ll be taking even more time off to escape to a hidden spot in Cornwall. For me, work-life balance is key—especially while building funnels and running a business.

Here’s how I sold my first $25,000 marketing funnel. The first thing I did was make sure I knew exactly who I was targeting—insurance agents.

We’re constantly being told to “go where the competition aren’t”. Protip: This isn’t some magical watering hole where all your customers are hanging out. Somewhere that your competition aren’t going to or don’t know about. Your competition are humans too. They’re lazy, fearful and unfocused.
