An easier way for coaches to bring in revenue
I had an interesting conversation with a coach years ago. He wanted to offer some stuff on Patreon to get recurring revenue coming in, and was curious what I thought about his plan. His idea was to sell a bunch of little things on the crowdfunding site: So for $2 per...
The people in your life
Although I’m more of a “Star Wars” kind of guy, there's an episode of "Star Trek: Voyager" that struck a chord with me. In the episode, called “Scientific Method”, the crew of the Voyager start experiencing strange illnesses. The Captain has excruciating headaches,...
Here’s a better way to get coaching clients
There are two main ways to get coaching clients … You could go with paid advertising, or the organic approach (well, three ways if you include a hybrid of paid and organic). If you choose the organic route, you have a few options from there to get clients coming in:...
Marvel’s Phase Four has been underwhelming, but this won’t be
Although I'm a fan of Marvel movies, I (and lots of others) have been disappointed with the current Phase Four, which has been rather "meh" in my opinion. With the exception of a handful of movies, it's been a real mess … but hey, since it's the holiday season I'll...

Like jumping on a moving train
When you start creating content, it can be a little stressful. During a recent group coaching call, I told my clients that it's like in the movies when a person is running next to a train in motion, and trying to jump into the train car to escape whoever he's running...
Simple sells!
I was once out of town at a popular sports bar that's known for having great wings. When we got our menus, there must have been hundreds of choices for wing sauce. The menu was thicker than The Bible! My friends took a long time combing through the pages and pages of...
