Not your usual cold DM

10 good DMs/day > 100 crappy ones
So many people think that the best approach to cold DMs is to blast out 100's of copied and pasted ones every day. Sure, they have a low conversion rate, but if they can close just 1% or 2% of them they'll be rolling in the dough, right??? That doesn't seem like a...
Why I don’t use Ouija boards
Awhile back I posted this on Facebook: ===== I've never played with a Ouija board, some might say "don't be a baby, they sell them at toy stores!", but I'd rather not risk letting any evil spirits into my world. I feel that way when answering cold messages: I'm...
When cold DMs make you want to take a shower
If you've followed me for awhile you know that I'm not a fan of most cold messages that I receive daily. Some make me want to take a shower immediately after reading them, and if I do respond to others it's usually a copied and pasted response to save my time! I'm not...

Last call for The Coaching Jungle VIP Early Bird!
This is the last call to get in The Coaching Jungle VIP as an early bird! I've been talking about it a lot this week, and especially today, because I firmly believe it's a no-brainer for anyone who has offers that help coaches. So far 78 people have become VIPs, and...
Are you committing the “Sin of the Desert”?
I once spoke at a conference in North Carolina, and I heard something from a fellow speaker (Brian McNeill) about the “sin of the desert”. The sin of the desert is when somebody knows where water is in the desert, but keeps it a secret and doesn’t share that knowledge...
About false deadlines
Back in 2015 I had Robert Coorey, author of "Feed a Starving Crowd", as a guest on my podcast. Although we aren’t best friends or anything, I’ve chatted with him several times and our paths have crossed over the years. A year or so after our interview, Robert was...
