Pick One Channel, Sprint 4 Hours Daily to $100K
If your business isn't making $100k a month. Here’s what you need to do. Grab a kitchen timer. Set it to 4 hours. And advertise until the timer is up. You can do warm outbound, cold outbound, content, or paid ads. Don’t do all of them. Just pick 1 until you get to $100k a month. I would start with warm outbound or content because they’re the cheapest to get started (aka free). When the 4-hour timer is up and the day is done? Do it again tomorrow. Repeat. Just win.
