Most people use LinkedIn like a digital résumé graveyard. They post when they remember. They connect like cowards. They treat the platform like some polite little networking museum. That ends tomorrow. Joshua B Lee is coming into the community to break down how LinkedIn actually works when you stop playing small and start using it like a relationship engine, authority machine, and deal-flow weapon. If you’re a founder, consultant, operator, creator, investor, or ambitious human with a pulse, LinkedIn is one of the highest-leverage platforms on earth. And most of you are underusing it so badly it should be a misdemeanor. Tomorrow, Joshua is going to show us how to: • Build real authority without sounding like a beige corporate hostage • Turn attention into actual relationships • Create posts people don’t scroll past like roadkill • Use LinkedIn to open doors, start conversations, and generate opportunity • Stop lurking like a Victorian ghost and start becoming impossible to ignore This is not “optimize your profile” fluff. This is how to turn LinkedIn into a business asset. Show up live. Bring questions. Bring your broken profile, your dead content strategy, your dusty network, and whatever excuse you’ve been using for why you “don’t really do LinkedIn.” Joshua is bringing the matches. We’re bringing the gasoline. 🔥 Tomorrow 🔥 Inside the community 🔥 Be there live Here's the zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83272395942?pwd=2tLNyUmwSTjHNKAUH2onMLMddKXrDo.1

Hey 3X Peeps, I'm outlining my next book on the topic of what I define as Sovereign Operators. A Sovereign Operator (SO) is a person who has created autonomy for their life and choices. They have the money thing out of the way, their relationships are harmonious, and they operate with optimal both physical and mental health. I'm positing that an important element of this will be the SO's ability to merge their thinking process with AI. Not a in downloading consciousness to a hard drive like Kurzweil suggests or implants into brains like Elon is doing, but creating a symbiotic dyad. Humans using AI to sharpen their cognitive processes and critical thinking skills in a true collaboration to elevate humanity. I'm test driving some of the material on my blog to workshop it further. Since so many of you in this group are power users of AI, I would LOVE your analysis and feedback. Here is the first post: https://randygage.com/the-day-the-human-race-forked/ If you would read and provide your thoughts, I would be very grateful (and might include some of what you say in the book). Comments like "I love this" don't really help. Looking for if you think the thesis is sound and WHY, or if you think I'm ignorant and delusional and WHY. Mad love! -RG

Howdy Group! My name is Cody Breunig. I'm a father of four, soon to be five, husband, life steward, and a growing business owner to two businesses. The first business is a company called Black Dog Forensics, a digital forensics company. The second business is quite new and it was born out of Black Dog Forensics, it's a company called CrossLogic Intelligence. This company goes live in about two weeks. It's a software solution that we developed internally at Black Dog to solve our problems and decided to market it for criminal defense attorneys. We've got a pretty scary roadmap and a lot of work to do on that. Regardless, like many of you, I have a reason and purpose to live, joy that gets me out of bed, and people that depend on the work we do. I want for nothing.... But at the same time, everything. I know what I'm capable of building, and at the same time, I know that when I reach that level, it is only the next step. A perpetual cycle of finding out that the goal you just reached is only the floor to be able to reach the next one. I believe that's the order or cycle, if you will, that exists in the chaos we call life. I think my need is probably the same as everybody else's - TIME. Although many others seem to have figured it out, I, like many on the entrepreneurial step, am the biggest bottleneck in my businesses. I have high expectations because everything is personal, although I guess I need to work on that. I need to put better systems in place to replicate me and the decisions I would make. I need to learn to delegate better and completely unplug when I delegate and trust the results, even when I know that I would have done it differently. Looking forward to learning from seasoned professionals. Respectfully, Cody

Let’s face it; we’re not living in easy times right now. There’s a lot going on and if you feel it, it’s because you’re strong enough to not have to numb out entirely just to exist like the average person. I respect that. But you have to find systems to get you through it, without it breaking you. I remember waking up anxious every day for 3 months straight, and that was long before I had half the responsibilities I have today. But despite the times and despite the weight on my shoulders, I’m committed to not letting my stresses break me into being a lesser version of myself. And what I can tell you is every time I’ve improved, refined, or simplified my systems, personally and professionally, I’ve built capacity to handle more with less effort. Systems are the antidote to stress. Creating the right systems that can support you in thriving. Curious what systems are y'all working on building in your life either in business or personally? Right now mine is improved delegation (one of the reasons i'm here)

Has anyone implemented WhatsApp for a small client-facing team and found a good way to manage it? We have a team of Professional Administrators who work directly with clients, and I would like each team member to have their own dedicated WhatsApp number that is owned by the company rather than tied to their personal WhatsApp accounts. My requirements are: - Each team member has a separate business number. - The numbers are owned by the company, not the employee. - Team members do not have to connect or use their personal WhatsApp accounts. - Leadership/admins can access calls and message history if needed for coverage, quality assurance, or transitions. - Access can be revoked immediately if someone leaves the company. Where I'm getting stuck is the relationship between Meta Business Manager, the WhatsApp Business Platform, and third-party providers. I was hoping to: - Use the WhatsApp Business Platform, - Purchase the phone numbers through a third-party provider, - Maintain company ownership of the numbers, - Avoid having all of our day-to-day operations deeply tied into Meta Business Manager because, in my experience, Meta account administration can become complicated quickly. However, as I've started setting this up, it appears that most solutions require you to manage everything through a provider such as Respond.io, Twilio, 360dialog, etc., while still relying on Meta for verification and approval. Have any of you done something like this and would be willing to share how you are doing it? Thanks!
