Everyone in this space tells you to do MORE! So post more, add another platform, launch another product, buy another tool. We did the opposite. Over the last year, we quit a whole list of "best practices" and tools everyone swears you need and our income went UP, not down.
In this live coworking session, we're not adding to your plate; we're handing you the list of things you can put DOWN today and probably grow faster because of it. Then we're going live in the chat to tell YOU what you're allowed to quit.
⚠️ This isn't lazy advice. It's the difference between being busy and being paid.
WHAT WE GET INTO:
→ Why "do more" is the default advice (and who profits from it)
→ The 8 things we quit: batching, keyword chasing, daily posting, 5 platforms, paywalls, the "brand voice," the course treadmill, comparison
→ What actually happened to our traffic and income after each one
→ The test for what YOU should quit vs. keep
→ LIVE: drop the thing you're most exhausted by and we'll give you a verdict; quit it, tweak it, or keep it 👇 What's ONE thing you're quitting after today? Tell us in the chat.
