No live show today…


Howdy Reader!

You know what's funny about conferences? Just when you think you've got everything figured out, our AI overlords throw you a curveball that makes your slide deck about as relevant as My Space templates.

I just got back from speaking at Social Media Marketing World, and my head is BUZZING with all the amazing insights and innovations. I can't wait to share with you.

This year was especially mind-blowing because they added their first-ever AI track. The amount of game-changing information shared was incredible. (And yes, I took notes. Lots of them. Just for you!)

And speaking of game-changers... ChatGPT decided to drop their new image model right before the conference. Talk about timing! I literally had to update my slides in real-time. But that's a story (and some pretty exciting developments) for another email...

BUT, I need to share something with you. We've made the decision to cancel this week's live show. As much as I love our weekly chats, sometimes life reminds us that there are things more important than content and conversations—and this is one of those moments.

Our scheduled guest is dealing with some personal matters so we're going to hit pause and send our support their way. We'll have them back when the timing is right for everyone.

I know you'll understand because that's just the kind of amazing, community you are.

See ya in your inbox next Tuesday,

Like watching Elaine from Seinfeld try to dance - there's movement happening, but something's definitely... off? 😅 I get it. We've all been there, copying and pasting prompts from YouTube videos, hoping they'll magically transform our workflow. (Spoiler alert: they usually don't!) That's why I'm SUPER excited to have my old friend Mike Allton on the show this week. Fun fact: Mike was actually there when I...

Howdy Reader! Ever feel like you're doing ALL the productivity hacks but still spinning your wheels? You're not alone. I've been thinking a lot about productivity lately as I prepare to speak at Social Media Marketing World in San Diego this week. And let me tell you, nothing tests your productivity systems quite like getting ready for a conference! Speaking of testing things... I recently discovered something cool at the Newsletter Marketing Summit in Austin that I HAD to share with you....

Howdy Reader! Ever wish you could clone yourself just to get everything done? (Without the whole evil twin subplot, of course!) I get it. As creators, we're constantly juggling multiple tasks, wearing ALL the hats, and somehow trying to maintain our sanity in the process. That's exactly why I'm excited about this week's show. We're digging into the world of automation and systems with someone who's mastered the art of doing more by doing less. Meet Joe Casabona, the wizard behind the curtain...
