“Should I start a passive income side business?” and more...
First off, thank you all for your support in response to my 2k word mobile business backstory from yesterday! Evidently, it helped a bunch of people (and also scared the crap out of a few who now recognize that they are riding a horizontal wave...)
Your feedback is what keeps me going, so please continue to let me know what you think - whether you agree, disagree, have questions, comments, suggestions... just hit reply - I read every single message.
On to today’s topic...
Yesterday marked the 16th session of my “every other week” group coaching program. We had a bunch of fun questions that touched on topics like:
- How to get started with a daily mailing list
- Playing The Introduction Game to clarify soggy marketing copy
- The difference between your marketing (e.g., “Guinness On Tap” sign outside the pub) vs all of your offerings (e.g., the entire list of 200 beers on tap inside the pub)
- How to decide whether or not to spin up a side business
- Why profitability normally decreases after your initial engagement with a client
What students tell me is most useful about participating in this program (either in real time, in the Slack room, or viewing the recordings later) is seeing how to put the theory into practice on a case by case basis.
You can only go so far with best practices alone. Even if they are solid, there are always exceptions and ways to get stuck when you try to apply them to your own specific situation.
Hashing things out with someone who’s been in your shoes can save tons of time and money wasted on tactics that aren’t a good fit.
Here’s a link to the questions page:

(Note that all recordings have timestamped links from each question to the spot in the video where I answer it, so you can jump right to the answers you care about without sitting through 15+ hours of video.)

P.S. Would you like to see a sample of what group coaching is like? Here’s a link to a public session I ran late last year:
