Hey guys, this is my pre-auction email that I'm going to be sending out to an affiliate marketer's email list. It will be used to seed the skool group to run an auction. This is the first test to see if there's any interest. He's an affiliate marketer with his wife. Their main branding is affiliate marketing, lifestyle, and showing people how to make money online by getting into affiliate marketing. Tare it apart PLEASE! Appreciate it a ton **** Subject: a. Would you bid $1 for this? b. Another side hustle is the last thing you need Hey, I’ve been thinking about something. A lot of people want more income, more freedom, and more breathing room… But they don't want another full-time side hustle. They don’t want to spend months trying to figure out: What do I sell? How do I set it up? How do I actually get traffic and leads without this taking over my life? And honestly, that’s where a lot of good people get stuck. Not because they’re lazy or not smart! Just because the whole thing feels like too many moving parts, too much noise, and not enough clear direction. So… I’m thinking about doing something a little different. Maybe even having some fun with it and doing it auction style. I’m thinking about opening up one private VIP day for ONE person. I mean a real, private day with me where we sit down together and work through the pieces that usually keep people stuck. Clarify what you should sell. Map out the simplest path to get it set up. Work through your first content angles so you’re not staring at a blank screen. And help you leave with an custom plan on you desk to follow step by step! I could only do this for one person. So before I decide whether to do it… Would you throw your hat in the ring for one dollar? If you would, just hit reply and let me know. – Ben

Hey hey fellow Ronin, I did reach out to the toy industry expert but didn't hear back. Yesterday she did a masterclass on how she's using AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. It was informative and she definitely isn't lacking in personality! As an attendee, she sent out this survey to me just a few minutes ago: Hey, Thank you so much for joining yesterday's masterclass, the questions and energy in the room made it so much fun to teach. A few people in the chat asked about the AI prompts and Skill files I demoed. So, I'm thinking about packaging them up as a standalone resource, organized by use, with context on how to use them. Would that be something you'd actually use? Before dedicating time to it, I genuinely want to know if it's something you'd want. Hit reply and let me know. Even a one-word answer helps a ton! Thank you, NAME Here's how I am planning to reply: Hey NAME, Coaches often demo tools and processes inside a masterclass... Then survey their audience and get signals that indicate desire... Only to put in the time to make it available and the sales don't translate to demand... We’ve been running 5 and 6-figure auctions and pulling out 100 ready-to-buy now leads in under 24 hours and they tell ME how much they’re willing to spend! Then we're collecting the payment right after the auction, not only from the winner, but from up to 95 percent of the bidders too! I’ve got a bumbly loom showing what we’re doing, wanna see it? - Chad Boswell PS You can't buy anything. But after seeing the excitement in the masterclass yesterday, I think you'd clean up running an auction for BUSINESS NAME. It's a blast watching everyone placing bigger and bigger bids in the comments. It goes CRAAAAZZZY. I know peeps really dig what you're offering! Thoughts or feedback before pressing send? - Ronin Chad

I am running an auction with a partner - Its for Speakers and also for Authors, Experts, Consultants and Coaches ... who want to get their message in front of their IDEAL (captive) audience. The winner gets FIVE gigs BOOKED for them speaking to their IDEAL audience. Plus a Professional Elite Media and Marketing Kit (everything is included) And 1on1 speaker training to polish and refine their keynote / Signature talk including Stage Presence, Charisma and Sell from Stage without Selling... 5 Stages could easily generate a back end SALES of low to mid 6 figures 🔥 Here's the plan --- I wanted to share it with you as its a Combo of OI with a variation on Referral Mojo - I will be approaching Skool Speaker Groups as a BUYER ( I have a short list of 23) And FB groups too I'll make a REFERRAL style offer - 10% up to $10k - on all the sales generated from your members who join in the FUN... They will post a version of the POLL - "... would you bid $1...?" Quick Question : 👉 Should I open with . . . " Do you accept sponsorships? " OR something like - " Do your members complain about the frustration of getting on the right stages? I'm leaning towards the second one... And if you have any other suggestions I'm open to the feedback ! Thanks 🙏🙂 PS - Also, If you know anyone who has a Speakers group please DM me I'll do something cool for Ya !

I've got a toy industry coach I want to reach out to. She's running ads on Facebook and I've seen some of them come across my feed. One ad has been going since August '24. I've got two struggles. My first struggle is the only email I can find is an info@ email. I'm sure she doesn't directly open those as she has a team that helps her. So, I'm feeling stuck on a subject line that could break through and end up getting forwarded to her directly. I was thinking "Dumb idea?". I also know naming her baby in the subject line is something that is recommended in CDOD. Gemini recommended I say something specific about the August 24' ad to demonstrate I've done some research and not just a spammer. My second struggle... I want to nail down a present pain around ad spend because I know FB ad costs aren't getting cheaper in 2026. I just don't know enough of the specific pain point coaches are experiencing running FB ads today. Any guidance would be appreciated! -Ronin Chad

I'm discussing an auction with an email copywriter with a 4k person list and small but very active paid community. I'm stuck in a loop where because he's a copywriter he WANTS to write all of the posts and emails. But because of that, it's too much work for him to want to run the auction. Right. "I'm not really sure what you'd be doing since it seems like a lot of work for me." It's absolutely non-negotiable for me to do the posts and emails, so I don't even know if this is worth my time to negotiate. Thoughts?
