Enforcement is key
Yesterday this group had 483 members. Today it has 474*. Over the past 24 hours, I've removed 10 people from this group, following up on this discussion on written rules. As proof, I am attaching 10 "churned" profiles of former House members, with yesterday's churn date. I'm not holding up these removed ex-members to shame them. I have nothing against them personally. But rules are rules, and Daily Email House has its rules. As a few people commented in the discussion I linked to above: Enforcement is key. No sense in having rules if you're not going to enforce them. I'd also add, not only is enforcement key... but public enforcement is key. Yeah, maybe somehow you project a different vibe if you have rules and you stick to them in private, behind the curtain, where only you and the person you're dealing with are privy to what went down. But it helps the objective of the rules massively if you make a public showing of enforcing rules. That way, the rules don't just punish the transgressors, but are a reminder and an encouragement and even a reward for everyone else who did not transgress. This doesn't apply to just kicking people out of communities for not engaging: - It's the same thing with deadlines for your promos to your email list - It's the same when dealing with disrespectful readers or clients or partners - It's the same for turning someone away from your offers, because he or she is not going to get value out of those offers, and you've set a policy for yourself to not sell to people like that In each case, enforcement is key... and public enforcement is the Golden Key. (*) Daily Email House yesterday had 483 members... minus the 10 members I removed makes 473... and yet the group now has 474 members? A few days ago, I finally filled out the necessary fields to make this group discoverable via the Skool discovery network. Today a dude found Daily Email House via Skool, and asked to join.

UPDATE FOLLOWING VITRIOL WEDNESDAY: Thanks to everyone who participated. For 24 hours, we roasted, very mildly, the winner. As promised, the Vitriol Wednesday post and all the comments have been deleted to protect the vitriolic. Frankly, it's not an experiment I plan to repeat... but it was worth doing one time. ***** In another thread about joint group projects, @Robin Timmers suggests: "Letโ€™s all verbally attack the same guru." Let it never be said I don't take member suggestions seriously or that I don't implement them quickly. So at the risk of completely going against the vibe of this community, and of poisoning the well of promising future relationships forever... I designate next Wednesday "Vitriol Wednesday," where we can all pile on and say nasty things about some guru who really rubs us the wrong way. But who is that? Who should we pick?

Write in for Ramit Sethi. His book "I will teach you to be Rich" on setting up alto-savings account and investing account is great. Then I bought an expensive course he released. Guaranteed money back if you do the work and can show you did the work and were not satisfied. After 4 months of trying to do the impossibly large amount of work, nothing came of my time in the course and I couldn't get my money back because I just couldn't finish it. Sour taste ever since. But generally, I don't have time for hate.
What can you teach?
I got a message a couple days ago from @Michael Silk. Michael wrote: === I have just seen a post on LinkedIn and the post starts out.. "I just became CEO of a 10M ARR Tech Scaleup. What can you do for us? Comment with your one liner below." (The post set some rules beyond that and how if he was interested he'd get back to people, but that was the main part of the post). === Michael thought I could do something similar here in Daily Email House. The tone of the "10M ARR Tech Scaleup" CEO isn't really my style... but I think the idea is sound. In fact, I already did something like this here in Daily Email House, almost exactly a year ago. Michael's message reminded me that I should do it again. So lemme ask you: What can you teach? What's something you can put a presentation about for people inside Daily Email House? Maybe you just enjoy teaching and are always ready to do it. But maybe you need some better reasons. Here are a few: 1. You can float an idea here and gauge in a low-stress, low-effort way whether there's any value in pursuing it further. 2. If there is interest, you can get my feedback, input, and help into organizing your presentation, or even organizing it into a product. (I'm offering my feedback, input, and help both to encourage you, and to make sure any presentations will be of high-caliber and valuable for other House members.) 3. If you do give your presentation, you can use feedback from the group to polish and improve what you're teaching, so you can then turn it into a paid offer (or a free lead magnet). 4. You can get ready testimonials or even case studies from people here. 5. Though I make no promises about this, if you do turn a presentation into an offer, and if I feel it's a fit for my own list, I would love to promote it, and help you get sales and more exposure. 6. Maybe by teaching something valuable yourself, you encourage others inside Daily Email House to teach something valuable as well, which ends up benefiting you and everyone else down the line.

@Chris Dyson This alone, being ok with uncertainty and "failure," is a hard lesson most don't learn. And when we do, we often forget. Teach us how to beโ€”and remainโ€”fluid and uncertain and un-ok.
Google Doc Sales Pages vs Traditional Sales Pages
I know at least a few people here (and a lot in total) write sales pages in Google Docs and send traffic to that doc instead building it inside their website. For those people, I have a question. Do you care that it's Google docs? Meaning, if you could write your page in Google docs and then snap your finger and have it published on your website too, designed and sleek, would you do it? Or does it not make a difference for you? And to people who publish their sales pages on their website: Would it make things faster/easier if you just wrote it in a Google doc and it was immediately transferred to your website?

I've done both. I like the convenience of GDocs and I think there's a nice Social Proof element when you know other people are looking at the same documentโ€”especially if there's any scarcity involved. The dedicated page is more professional looking, which honestly isn't always what you want. But some times it is.
[ALIVE] Pool party + "I endorse YOU" auction
Welcome WELCOME The pool party is ON. You can find the margaritas and soft drinks over in the corner... ... the DJ has set up and is playing already... ... and after you've had a chance to dip yourself in the pool, and as the party heats up... ... perhaps you'd like to also take a look at this little offer I am making? The offer in a peanut shell: I am offering to take the winning bidder โ€”ย let's imagine it's you โ€”ย and... 1. To give you a NAME and credibility on the Internet, along with MY FULL ENDORSEMENT, and... 2. To DRIVE MY RESPONSIVE READERS to the optin for your list, and... 3. To work with you and co-create a SEXY ACQUISITION FUNNEL (free giveaway + paid thank-you page offer), which you can use to build up your email list AND make money on day zero by turning new subscribers into buyers right away, plus... 4. I'm guaranteeing, with my two hands, that if you win this auction you will MAKE BACK 100% OF YOUR MONEY before I'm done endorsing and promoting you. Again, I will send out a dedicated email to endorse you and your offer, and to drive my audience to you. If you don't recoup all your investment with that first email I send, I will keep sending more dedicated emails, for as long as it takes, to promote and endorse you until you do recoup your winning bid. (If needed, we will also keep working together to tweak your funnel to make sure the right people sign up AND turn into buyers.) That's the little auction offer I'm making, for you to consider while you baste in my pool. I'm also offering a few POOL PARTY FAVORS if you happen to win the auction: 1. Wine and tapas on me whenever you get to Barcelona. (I know a good place around the corner from my new apartment, in the Gothic quarter. Once you finish with the pool and dry off, we can head over there.) 2. A list of newsletters you can run ads in, so they drive their own readers to you, and so you can keep growing your list at breakeven or at a profit, regularly, month after month. (And yes, you can approach these newsletter owners and tell them, "John Bejakovic already endorsed this offer... and his audience loved it.")

@John Bejakovic How far in advance were you planning to announce those "new bonuses", were they planned or just impromptu to goose the bids? Like, giving away the rights to a course: seems like a great bonus, and like a decent sacrifice on your end. Was that planned?
