Tested a GPT-powered assistant on my membership page to answer objections and follow up. It was polite, fast, and my list still didn't convert. Sharing the numbers and the part I got wrong.
I've got a self-paced course for L&D teams and the one part clients actually finish and mention back to me is the assessment. I've been hand-marking every submission, and it's now eating the hours …
We already tested two membership modules as public YouTube edits. Conversion didn't move and delivery slipped, because that week went to cutting instead of fulfilment. Before I kill it: is the IP p…
Running founder selection for the next cohort and I don’t want to repeat the last one. We tried a full rubric—traction, coachability, founder-market fit—and still ended up with two teams who killed…

I run the mentor side of an accelerator cohort solo. Sign-up is fine, but by week four the mentors go quiet and I can't tell if I'm asking too much or too little. I tried assigning each founder a l…
Replacing freelance income with a course. Tried pre-selling to past clients, got two polite 'maybe later' replies, no cash. My content gets read but doesn’t convert, so I don’t trust the likes as s…
