@alemarcaz 7-8 figures by solving known problems, but 9-10 figures by solving unknown problems (Apple, Facebook, Google, OpenAI).

@jordanhill11 Work in progress

If you want to know what people in a room think, pay attention to what they laugh at. Jokes give people a socially acceptable excuse to purge (laugh) at what they really agree with but don’t say out loud.

I think we forget how much happier people used to be

Everyone talking about the different traits and habits that make people successful, but if you look around I think it comes down to one thing. How you deal with fear.

@Nugennath ok… might need your help scaling this one 🤝

@Nugennath let’s see if your founder ads push gets me out the trenches. “People buy from people” 🤞🏻

@thewillhol @Jacob96827521 @seeyounvr Yh js a good point, but I think dopa is inherently short term. Even if it’s not novel to you anymore, the object will remain cool by the fact that it is rare to others. Status solves reproduction, which is above all imo.

Liverpool Street station. The most depressing place on earth.

@bymaximise Pls check DM 🫡

@ecomtomahawk Yh. Ecom is about being relentless. You have to actually lose thousands of £ and years of your life before one day you wake up and realise you have acquired hundreds of micro skills, and more importantly, knowledge. Then you’re free to play the game forever

Going through pain that I’m sure lots of ecom founders go through. Realising that Hormozi was right. It’s not the best product that wins. It’s the best KNOWN product that wins. Ingredients (CPG) and Fabric (Fashion) should NOT be the first thing you think about (unless you’re entire value prop is quality, which I’m guessing it isn’t if you’re building around an existing product category and your aren’t Loro Piana). You must compete on BRAND and brand only. Then once you have a brand you can spend cash on R&D to develop a crazy unique product. Distribution > product

@jackinECOM This is an underrated bit of sauce mate. I had an ad set that was just lagging along for 4 days, and then it just started picking up and and up and now it’s top spender. Got to let zuck’s big machine do its thing.

@shanerostad The customer has to actually see the value they are getting. If you’re just lowering rates then they have nothing to compare to. Whereas “FREE” implies that usually it would have cost them, but now it doesn’t.

@Jacob96827521 This is absolute gold. Essentially providing a cheaper supply of something already in demand vs trying to generate new demand for something with little supply (which is very expensive but much bigger if nailed).

@zachpogrob Real obsession doesn’t need rules. It’s baked in. Pre-fab.

yh im sure there’s margins being squeezed, but my point is that this shouldn’t discourage people, because they should see ecom as a sales channel, not their business. Apple (great product) and Gymshark (great brand) will work on the high street, retail, ecom, meta-verse, or whatever way we go in the future. The most important thing is having a unique value proposition that you can distribute. If you have that, you’ll be fine.
