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?

Just spoke with the owner of a skydiving business who emails his list of 30,000 customers once per year with Christmas specials. He adds about 1500 new customers every year at the moment. Seems like the easy thing to do here is...start emailing. He does the typical solo, tandem, group and multi-dive packages. He also does these AI edited videos of your dive for $300. And he also has gift certificates, like $100 toward a solo dive. Wedding / proposal events... Not sure how margin is going to work out here since I am more familiar with digital offers. What would you do?

I've been looking into local SaaS businesses. Travis emphasizes on opening with a personal point to get the conversation rolling. Problem is, most of the SaaS business owners I come across has set their FB/IG on private and all they talk about on LinkedIn is the feature they have implemented. Compared to course creators and coaches they seem to live a more sheltered life. I have tried opening with "Do you have open capacity for more subscribers for X?" But I feel like I get lumped in with the 1000 of other marketing agencies pitching them. Any thoughts?

Got a handful of conversations going with Skool owners today (6 so far) about purchasing. Of the ones that have a price, one said $75k and the other said $50k. These are not massive communities. A few thousand people. I know "how long is a piece of string" but is this just a case of needing to go through BDTS a few times and get a feel for it? The super high starting numbers seem ridiculous to me for what the owners actually have.

Hello Ronin, I had a YouTube creator join my email list last week who has almost 300k subscribers. No products. Got a coffee date scheduled Friday. My problem is--and maybe this isn't a problem--her channel is based on scientific topics and I can't connect the dots to see where the "offer" is hiding. Some of her top performing videos: Is cooking with air fryers healthier or not? What's better than yogurt for probiotics? Mom genes vs dad genes Typing this out, I see most of them are actually health-related. Hmmmm...🤔 Any nudges? I appreciate it.
