August; leave it must.

As the British summer draws to a close, here’s a melancholy Monthly Muse.

A book I’m currently reading

“$100M Leads: How to Get Strangers To Want To Buy Your Stuff” by Alex Hormozi

Description: This book contains the playbooks that took the author from sleeping on my gym floor to owning a portfolio of companies that generate $200,000,000 per year in under a decade. Wanna know the biggest difference between those two time periods? How many leads he was getting. The problem is — most business owners don’t know how to get leads. This book is written to solve your leads problem.

A brand/marketing lesson I’ve learned

The emotions of anxiety and sadness signal two distinct underlying psychological issues:

  • Anxiety = too many choices. Solution: Prioritisation.
  • Sadness = too few choices. Solution: Education and growth.

A campaign that’s inspired me
