I probably shouldn’t talk about a potential big change to this newsletter until I decide to do it and get my messaging clear, but…
Screw it.
I shared what I’m considering here.
Now, on to this week’s ideas…
The Starting Five
1. How I Used A Pre-Case Study To Get Clients
One simple piece of content I published recently surfaced a bunch of leads and paying clients – here’s how you can do something similar.
2. 10 Elements Of Your Newsletter To Review If You Want To Improve It
Worth doing a couple times a year.
3. How To Ask For Help From Someone Who Doesn’t Know You
This may be the most valuable skill you can ever learn.
4. How To Get Clients From Guesting On Podcasts
A one-hour podcast that reveals how a marketing consultant earned $100k in business directly from appearing on other people’s podcasts.
5. How To Make A Living As An Artist
From someone who earned more than $1 million from their art.
Sources and Sponsors
• You can sponsor two issues of my newsletter and reach my 30k subscribers for just $350 – reserve your ad here.
• I’ve used these 15 email templates to turn subscribers into buyers.

From My Notebook…
• One day a baseball hitter crushes a pitch but the wind’s blowing in so it’s just an easy out. The next day he barely makes contact but the wind carries it out for a home run. Don’t confuse a wind problem for a you problem.
• It’s the best of times and the worst of times all the time.
• It’s easy to overlook the value of the familiar in the search for the new.

My Final Words Of The Week
I was interviewed in the Marketer On A Mission newsletter recently and it gave me an opportunity to share some of my thoughts about what nonprofit email marketers get right…and what they get wrong.
Have an interesting week!
