Damn this is turning into an absolute FLEET.

Hop aboard while you can 🚢⚓️🚢⚓️🚢⚓️
By far my favorite part of days like this is seeing our Member Ship alums give such warm welcomes to all the new Shippers

This cohort is going to be an absolute blast!

9 hours...!
What a day. The largest single day of new shippers and still 8 hours to go!

About to hit 2,000 lifetime Ship 30 members.

Wild what can happen in 11 months (from a single tweet that came after writing on my own for 30 days in a row)

5 hours left ⏳⏳⏳

Don't get stuck watching from the shore until January!

Join the armada 🛳🛳🛳
Cannot wait to get this cohort started.

@Nicolascole77 and I just jammed for two hours on all of the upgrades that are coming ... going to be absurd

3 hours left ⏳
@Nicolascole77 If you hate the idea of:

• Clarifying your niche
• Finally finding time to write
• Building lifelong friendships
• Learning how the game of digital writing works
• Writing more in 30 days than you have in months

Do not hop aboard 🚢

60 minutes ⏳

College completely failed in teaching me how to write.

So I spent over 500 hours studying legendary authors and copywriters.

Someone asked me what advice I would give to someone looking to start building online:

My answer:

• Learn simple no-code
• Learn basic copywriting
• Start a weekly newsletter
• Start making friends on Twitter

Building + selling + distribution + networking
This is the playbook I used to start Ship 30.

I had ~600 followers at the time and ~200 newsletter subscribers.

I took a few courses to learn how to:

• Build a simple landing page in Carrd with Typeform/Stripe
• Write copy that pointed out the problem / hyped up the benefits
One year ago today (celebrating a +34 week in newsletter subscriber growth):
