Last month, Balaji Srinivasan, whose cofounded an sold multiple companies for 100s of millions of dollars... ...And has 1,000,000 followers on X said something that ruffled a lotta feathers in the AI fan boy community: “Lorem aipusm”is placeholder text used by designers. It's scrambled Latin that looks like real text but means nothing, allowing designers to focus on their layout instead of the writing. What Balaji is saying is that AI copy might as well just be scrambled placeholder text. It’s actually garbage if you ask me… …But here things get a little more spicy… Neil Patel, who runs one of the largest marketing agencies in the world, just ran an experiment that should scare the sh*t out of every marketer using AI. Patel had his team write 744 blog articles. Half of the articles were written by AI, the other half by humans. The result? Human written content didn’t just win, it gave the AI written content a slap across the face and got 5.4x more traffic. By month 5, AI articles were pulling 52 visitors while human articles were crushing it with 283 visitors. So think about it… The best marketing and business minds are hating on AI content, funnels, and copy. And for a good reason, the proof is in the pudding. But the low life chumps are pushing AI training, courses, and agents like it’s some new gold rush. They way I see it, you’ve got 2 options: Use AI to spit out generic information that’s already on the internet, and let your customers scroll through trash they’ve seen a thousand times. Or learn how to leverage psychology, good writing, and simple funnels to not only get more sales… …But make your competitors look like lazy AI chumps. That’s why you need Simple FCKN Funnels.

Can I ask you a question? Ok sure, that might've been a question by itself, so I'll ask you another question… Do you actually read AI writing? Like when you check your inbox, do you open the email, see that it's boring, loaded with words that have no depth behind them, try to read through the lack of flow from sentence to sentence… …and think: "wow, that was a novel concept" If you're like me, and billions of other human beings, the answer is no. As soon as I get a scent of em dashes, no x,...
If I had to pick one entrepreneur's advice to listen to for the rest of my career, it would be Tim Ferriss's. More specifically, it would be this one question Tim has asked himself time and time again whenever he's feeling stuck: "What if I did the opposite for 48 hours?" You see, my biz partner and I have built a cold email infrastructure that can send 600k - 800k emails a month for ourselves…and for our clients. Now let me be clear… There are others sending millions a month, and volume...
Last week I sent an email and published social media content saying that I was hiring. What was supposed to be a way for me to hire the best candidates (which I did btw, in case you applied), turned into a lesson about human behavior. In case you missed it… I shared publicly that I was hiring a copywriter. However, there was a test with various instructions to make sure: You could listen and follow instructions You knew how to "think" like a marketer You knew how to write without Claude slop....
