Sam Parr showed me his funnel...
|
The best tip I’ve heard on how to build your online biz came from Sam Parr. Here's the deal... 2.5 years ago I dreamed of working wherever I wanted whenever I wanted. So I did what any dumb electrician would do... I started a podcast. And if you post episodes traffic will come to your podcast, right? WRONG! I posted great content but NO ONE listened to the podcast.. But then something happened... Something so crazy that it led me to my dreams. I got a paid 1-hour phone call with Sam Parr. And if you don't know who Sam is... He's the media mogul who grew and sold The Hustle newsletter for tens of millions of dollars. Sam also is the cohost of the #1 business podcast My First Million... Anyway, how I got this phone call is a story for another time... The important thing is that Sam gave me the best advice I'd ever gotten. And I want to share it with you Reader... This advice allowed me to start an online business, quit my job, and let me work wherever I want whenever I want. What was it? A simple funnel. You see Sam pointed out a giant mistake I made. And to this day I still see thousands of people who make the same mistake. I want to save you from the struggles I had... So here's the mistake: Skipping the top of the funnel. Here's out it works and it's so easy that most people miss it... It's that simple. You grow a following... Move them to your newsletter, blog, or podcast. And then you pitch your offer. So that's why it's so important to have a following on social media... Not only does a following give you credibility... A following allows you to push traffic wherever you want. The crazy part? People pay THOUSANDS of dollars a month to have you grow a following for them. That's why a social media following is the greatest asset to have in 2024. It's the gateway to location independence. So here's my lesson for you Reader... The easiest way to start an online business is to grow a following on a social media platform... And the results will surprise you. You'll get a world-class network Learn skills that are in high demand And people will message you and want to pay you. It takes time but spending one year growing an audience was the best decision I've ever made... Catch ya on the flip side, -Parker |

I’m going to be open and honest with you here. The biggest problem my business had for the past 18 months was getting traffic. Organic social media was the main source of traffic… But you know how that goes. A couple of algorithm changes later and 95% of my traffic was cut off overnight. Not just from Twitter, but eventually LinkedIn and Threads. It sucked. All of my friends and mentors told me to run paid ads. But I didn’t know what I was doing and wasted a bunch of money and time running...
