If you want to get rich and live your best life...

Bad news: Your cold outreach sucks.

Good news: I can help.

9 cold outreach tips to instantly improve and get better marketing results:
1/ Curate a list of leads.

Pick a couple Twitter accounts in your niche. Look through their followers or people who engage with their content.

(You can do this faster in @sparktoro. You can even get contact info and organize leads in .CSV lists.)
2/ Research those leads.

Make sure your request is relevant and appropriate.

Pitching for media coverage? Check if that publication actually covers your niche.

Asking to do a guest post? Verify whether they even publish guest posts.

Invest the time now to get better ROI.

Most people think reference checks are useless.

Because they're doing it wrong.

7 questions to ask a reference — and become a better manager:
"Where do you see this person in 3 years?"

Most people say 5 years. But that's too long. 3 years gets the reference thinking about ideal shorter-term outcomes for the candidate.

Focus on getting intel that will help you be an impactful manager.
"When was the last time you didn't see eye-to-eye?"

It's a softer way to ask how the candidate deals with conflict.

And you'll get a specific example, which will be more helpful than a broad, non-specific description of their conflict resolution skills.

Writer's block again?

You just have to know how to mine your own brain.

9 unexpected ways for creators and marketers to source new ideas:
1/ Bookmark tweets you felt a strong reaction to.

Revisit one and draft your response. But reframe it as a standalone thought.

(The first time I did this, I got my first viral tweet!)

2/ Pay attention to negative tweets.

...and one-up them by being constructive.

In a sea of negativity, your helpful content will shine even brighter.

Note: Helpful doesn't mean simply being nice. It means focusing on solutions.

I once scored a media placement that led to 1,600 new customers.

Here's the story of my biggest PR & marketing win — with frameworks you can borrow:
I was doing PR for a DTC snack startup.

No budget, no resources. Just me and my journalism experience.

Who was my target audience? Uh... anyone who might eat snacks. So, everyone. 😵‍💫
In a Google Sheet, I listed out every publication I could think of. With columns:

• Score of 1-5: likelihood they'd write about us, based on their content

• Names of writers who might be interested

• If they've already written about a competitor

Then I drafted my pitch.

Being creative is draining.

Here's my cheat sheet so you'll never run out of marketing inspiration.

12 easy ways to generate content ideas:
1/ Look at replies.

LinkedIn, Twitter, your private Slack for customers — wherever your community is most engaged.

What questions did they ask? What was most liked or shared?
2/ Talk to your personal Customer Advisory Board.

You have a few customer BFFs, right? Email or text them hello.

See how they're doing, ask what's on their mind, or get their opinion on a recent post you published.

Do you watch your information diet?

I get anxious when I haven't spent enough time reading good writing.

Here are some of my recent faves that have made me laugh, think harder, or feel seen:
@robotics on 2 people deciding where to eat:

"A: No, I’ll go to literally any restaurant in this town. Any neighborhood that’s more convenient for you?

B: No, every location in existence is convenient for me."

@HEnglandWriter on what keeps us from thinking creatively:

"...it is possible to teach your brain to move away from functional fixedness and instead embrace creative thinking at work and in your personal life."
