âI donât know what I did wrong.â I caught up with a friend. He is a content creator and marketer. Just like me. Over dinner, he told me about a digital product he was launching. He had worked on it for months. Invested lots of time, money, and effort. When he launched... Nothing happened.
The worst part? He blamed himself. But the product wasnât the problem. I could see it was the positioning.
I wasnât sure if I should be honest. But I remember when I was in this position. I decided I needed to be direct. (And yeah, it wasnât easy.) I told him exactly why it flopped. Where he missed the mark. How he could fix it. It was tough. But I felt like I could live with myself. Fast forward a few weeks...
I felt 10x better about my decision. But I would have done it anyway without the outcome. Because sometimes, you need someone who wonât just say, âGood job.â You need someone who says, âHereâs whatâs wrong. Hereâs how to fix it.â Thatâs what we do inside my Inner Circle Community. You get honest feedback. Real strategy. And tactics to execute. And a crew that actually wants to see you win. Matt didnât waste 6 months. He landed 3 new clients for his gym in 14 days. Cindy hit $3k/month with a tiny list. Another hard truth? You donât need more time or product. You need the right strategy and people. We have 4 Inner Circle spots left. If youâre tired of guessing and ready to grow... Reply "PRODUCT" and Iâll send you the details. Stay Limitless, Michael 'telling you the truth you need' Lim. |
đ x 5 Award-Winning Social Entrepreneur. Sold my first one-person business at 28. Currently traveling Southeast Asia.
I was at a start-up event last night. It was hosted by an incubator called Catalysr. These were early-stage start-up founders. One of the speakers was a seasoned entrepreneur. He could have talked about anything. Fundraising, product-market fit, hiring to scale. Nope. He talked about one thing. The power of networks. He said this: âYour network will determine your success.â He talked about how his first start-up failed. And he went broke. The one thing that saved him? The people he knew. Not...
My email yesterday struck a chord. I received emails like this: While I love hearing from you guys, these emails break my heart I canât help but feel terrible. I know exactly what it was like to be in this position. Iâm not in my 60s, but Iâm familiar with being and feeling stuck. 2 years ago, my first business was failing me. I did well in my first year. But I didnât build my sales engine. My clients ghosted me. A big proposal fell through. I got hit with a massive tax bill. I couldnât deny...
I would say sorry, but Iâm not sorry at all. In fact, I enjoyed it. And he started it. (So itâs really his fault) Matt reached out to work with me last year. He told me he was stuck. He couldnât crack a monthly income goal. He had been working with a coach who wasnât getting any results. Even after six months of work together. He still had: No sales system. No offer clarity. No real progress. When we started together, we tore down his biz. Rebuilt his offers. Simplified his message....
