Early on in business, you’re trying every tactic under the sun to drum up business. Me? I started off doing a ton of research into Facebook groups and what the best practices are within them.
During the same time of all this research, my dumbass was trying to create my own MailChimp campaigns. I’d gotten to the point with MailChimp where I’d screwed it up so bad; it just wasn’t functioning or firing properly. In a moment of rage and pissed-off-ness, I let my guard down and put a post out in a group of veterans asking: “Can anyone tell me how to use MailChimp…I’ve completely broken it.”
As soon as I put that post out there, the sharks started circling. People were jumping on my post and pitching themselves/their companies to me. But there was one guy who didn’t pitch at all. Instead, he wrote this 12-page freaking dissertation explaining the many ways that I could fix my MailChimp.
It was so fascinating to see someone tell me how I could fix it without even having to hear any sort of pitch. So I slid into the guy’s DM’s and said, “Alright dude, let’s jump on a Zoom call!” We spoke on Zoom and some of the first words out of the guy’s mouth were, “Hey– I don’t do MailChimp. I use another program called Ontraport.”
He helped me figure it all out. I thought I was ready to take it from there…aaaaaand six months later I had it all screwed up again. I reached back out to the guy and felt like I had no choice but to hire his butt to come in and save mine.
Who was that dude that helped me? My now good buddy and genius of a partner. Kevin Snow.
Let’s hear what he has to say:
